414: Plant the Mandragora of Death! The Core of Immortality!

Inside the strange small town in the deep pit controlled by the Malice Breath.

Su Lie walked into the butcher shop and sat on the bench next to the chicken cage.

Soon.

A Guest arrived at the butcher shop.

After the Guest and the butcher haggled for a while, the Guest finally bought the only remaining live poultry in the shop—a black-tailed rooster—for 1 gold coin.

The butcher grabbed the rooster by the neck and forcefully dragged it out of the cage.

The butcher skillfully drained its blood, plucked its feathers with boiling water, gutted it, chopped it into pieces, and sold it in a basket.

After the Guest left.

Inside the shop, another black-tailed rooster reappeared in the empty cage.

This rooster was a puppet.

The cage was not the Malice Breath either.

The rooster's brain was certainly not the Malice Breath.

The true Malice Breath.

Was the tiny thing inside the bursa of Fabricius, located inside the rooster's rear.

Because.

Su Lie, using his Divine Thief Talent, found a storage space and a life form capable of stealing Talents, Skills, attributes, or Lifespan inside the rooster.

Both were located in the exact same spot.

What else could the thing inside the bursa of Fabricius be but the Malice Breath!

Su Lie chuckled for a moment before activating his Divine Thief Talent.

Buzz! Buzz! Buzz!

Under his spatial theft effect.

Su Lie stole five items from the Malice Breath's spatial equipment.

Among them were one God-tier architectural blueprint scroll, two God-tier Talent scrolls, one God-tier token made of some material, and one blue God-tier pill.

He didn't have time to check the panels for these resources.

Taking advantage of the Malice Breath not yet realizing it was missing anything.

Su Lie once again used the life-stealing effect of the Divine Thief Talent.

Buzz!

The next second, a God-tier Talent scroll appeared in Su Lie's hand.

Just then.

A violent emotional fluctuation came from the rooster's rear.

Su Lie, who was closely observing the area, heard the voice of the Malice Breath.

"Huh? Why the hell have I become weaker?"

The Malice Breath's incredulous voice rang out.

"Fellow Daoist! Since a bosom friend has traveled far to visit, I ask that we meet!"

Su Lie immediately spoke to the Malice Breath using his Spirit.

He used his Friendliness and Persuasion Talent, and also released his Charm Aura Talent.

As his voice faded.

He revealed himself from the invisible state.

The butcher puppet inside the room and the rooster inside the cage simultaneously looked toward Su Lie.

At the same time.

The pedestrians walking back and forth on the town streets stiffly stopped in place.

They all looked toward the butcher shop, a smile curling up at the corners of their mouths.

Even the location of the butcher shop shifted from the street corner to one side of the central plaza.

This position allowed a clear view of the puppets in the plaza and on the streets.

Buzz!

The Malice Breath materialized a female Night Elves condensed from earth elemental power. She smiled and looked at Su Lie: "Welcome! Welcome! this one has been waiting for you for a long time!"

"Since that is the case, please remove the barrier outside! So that my servant can bring the gift over!"

Su Lie said, sitting firmly on the bench.

A burst of fervent admiration bloomed in the Malice Breath's eyes, and she nodded repeatedly after hearing him: "That's wonderful! I'm really looking forward to your gift, little brother!"

Buzz!

As she spoke, the light above the pit town brightened.

The dissipation of the earth elemental shield caused a large amount of earth elemental power to re-converge toward the depths of the mine shaft beneath the pit.

Su Lie sensed this, and his heart stirred: "The earth elements all went toward the temple!"

"It seems the Malice Breath's parasitize location isn't here... Could that temple be a scheme within a scheme?"

"But its main body is definitely inside the bursa of Fabricius in the chicken's rear!"

While thinking.

The Malice Breath had already controlled its avatar to sit beside Su Lie.

At this moment, while chatting with the Malice Breath, Su Lie contacted Mi Li, who was currently with Su Liya, through the mist manual.

After Mi Li saw Su Lie's private message, she quickly said to Su Liya: "Sister Liya! Lord asked you to go to the deep pit!"

"I understand!"

Su Liya nodded, then turned to Mi Li and Qin Yu and said: "You two head back first! I might have to come out to pick you up later!"

"Okay!"

Qin Yu and Mi Li exchanged glances, and both women simultaneously used the Territory Mark to teleport back to the territory.

Su Liya unfurled her great desolation wings, quickly flew above the deep pit, and then dove headfirst into the darkness at the bottom of the pit.

When she broke through the darkness and arrived at the town's plaza.

Su Liya accurately sensed Su Lie's location and quickly walked over.

Just then.

Su Lie also sensed Su Liya's arrival, and he said to the Malice Breath: "Sister, please show your true form, as I have an important treasure for you!"

"Hehe! Why are two bosom friends like us being so polite! If you want to see my main body, I shall come out!"

The Malice Breath said with a laugh.

Buzz!

The next second, an exquisite brain sculpted from mutton-fat white jade burst through the flesh of the black-tailed rooster, expanding from the size of a grain of rice and appearing right in front of Su Lie.

It hovered in mid-air, transforming into a smooth, rounded brain measuring a full fifty centimeters long.

"Master!"

Su Liya had just reached the doorway. While greeting Su Lie, she excitedly took out the death datura flower seed.

Su Lie took the seed and placed it on the brain: "This is your gift!"

Whoosh!

The Malice Breath smelled the fragrance of the datura flower.

It swallowed the seed.

The next second.

The Malice Breath suddenly cried out in pain: "No! No! No! What did you give me! Why is this happening... I... I..."

Its main body began to shake violently.

Su Lie sensed that intense Spirit fluctuations were surging within the mutton-fat white jade brain, accompanied by powerful earth elemental power.

Under the influence of the two forces.

The death datura flower seed was actually unable to take root inside it.

"Malice Breath!"

Seeing this, Su Lie spoke while simultaneously using the Soul-Capturing Eye Talent on the Malice Breath.

Buzz!

The next second, the Malice Breath shook violently.

Following that.

The Malice Breath fell into a state of stupor.

The death datura flower seed rapidly began to take root and sprout.

Even through the thick layer of jade-like structure, the roots condensed from black Death energy spread.

Su Lie could still see its spread and growth.

3 seconds later.

A soul was captured by Su Lie from within the Malice Breath's main body.

This was a mass of gray soul energy.

After leaving its main body, it transformed into a soul sphere.

The soul sphere floated down toward Su Lie's hand.

Su Lie raised his hand and grabbed it, secretly letting out a sigh of relief.

He looked at the soul sphere.

The gray, misty soul inside seemed to be unconscious, constantly drifting.

"Something's not right!"

Su Lie muttered softly.

He had previously captured the souls of Survivors.

Those captured souls, even after being refined into soul spheres, could still emit Spirit fluctuations begging for mercy.

But the Malice Breath's soul was too quiet.

It didn't look like it had been captured.

Su Lie used his Identification Talent on the soul sphere.

[Buzz!]

In the blink of an eye, a panel appeared in Su Lie's line of sight.

[Malice Breath's Broken Soul Sphere: Red God-level Quality; Storage: 12 grams of strange, broken soul;

Note: This soul is the soul of the Weird Evil God Malice Breath.

Note: This soul has no self-awareness.

Note: This soul material can be refined into a soul attachment orb or a precious pill for enhancing the soul.

Note: It is recommended to collect a complete soul to refine a soul attachment orb, otherwise there is a chance of failure.]

"As expected!"

Su Lie turned his head and scanned the surroundings.

He saw that.

The butcher inside the shop and the Night Elves outside had all collapsed to the ground.

The cluster of gas controlling them had already dissipated.

Su Lie looked at the datura flower sprout that had grown from the Malice Breath's main body and felt relieved: "That's good! This main body is real! Otherwise, the death datura flower seed wouldn't have taken root and sprouted!"

Thinking of this.

He said to Su Liya: "Liya! Wait here! I'll be right back!"

Having said that.

Su Lie once again entered the invisible state.

His figure flickered, and he instantly teleported to the end of the mine shaft via the Teleportation Mark.

When he appeared.

He heard roars coming from the deepest part of the mine shaft.

"You damned bastard! My main body!"

The Malice Breath was wailing in agony.

Su Lie discovered a soul-state figure sitting on the threshold of the Malice Breath's temple.

The figure was 20 centimeters tall.

It had no mouth or nose, yet it was constantly trembling.

Moreover, waves of dense earth elemental power behind it were continuously surging toward the Malice Breath's soul.

A layer of earthy yellow elemental substance appeared on the surface of its soul.

Su Lie frowned upon seeing this, and he used the Identification Talent on the Malice Breath.

[Buzz!]

In the blink of an eye, a panel appeared in Su Lie's line of sight.

[Malice Breath (Severely Wounded Soul State)]

[Quality: red god-tier]

[Race: Weird Evil God]

[Divinity: Chicken God]

[Rank: Lower-Rank Deity]

[undying core: The third tail feather of the black-tailed rooster]

[Activity Range: Area within a 100-kilometer radius centered on the undying core]

[Profession: Unknown]

[Level: 60]

[Attributes: Unknown]

[Professional Skills: Unknown]

...Note: The Malice Breath's soul is currently absorbing the earth elemental power from the temple. When it reforms its physical body and devours all the power within the temple's idol, it can regain its main body.

Its other main body will directly decay into useless stone.

Estimated time: 30 minutes.]

[Note: The Malice Breath's soul has been severely wounded. As long as the black-tailed rooster's third tail feather is found, the Malice Breath's strange Undying ability can be truly resolved.]

...Su Lie frowned slightly upon seeing this.

He did not immediately attack, but instead teleported back to Su Liya's side.

After seeing Su Lie, Su Liya excitedly asked: "Master! How did it go?"

"The situation is still under control! I ask you, how long will it take for this flower to bloom?"

Su Lie asked solemnly.

At this moment, the datura flower had already grown to 10 centimeters.

Su Liya's eyelids twitched, realizing there might be a problem, and she quickly said: "Master! It will take at least 5 hours!"

"There isn't enough time!"

Su Lie narrowed his eyes.

He said to Su Liya: "Don't worry! I have everything handled!"

Saying this.

He grabbed the black-tailed rooster inside the cage that had stopped breathing.

Although this rooster had become a corpse after losing the Malice Breath's control.

Its corpse had not decayed; instead, it was as fresh as if it had just died.

Su Lie quickly found the rooster's tail feather using the Eye of Identification.

When he plucked the tail feather off and held it in his hand.

Su Liya suddenly looked at Su Lie: "Master! The tail feather in your hand is useful for my advancement! I just received a prompt from the mist rule!"

"The prompt said that if the roots of the death datura flower can take root in this feather, I will gain the power of a Weird Divinity, and this power can make me stronger!"

"If this item is very useful to you, then forget about it!"

She slowly lowered her head.

To be honest.

It was false to say she didn't want it.

But if this item was truly useful to Su Lie.

She would rather sacrifice her own interests than use it to strengthen herself.

Su Lie laughed after hearing this: "Good! Good! Good! Since the datura flower's roots can consume it, that's the best outcome! This is the Malice Breath's undying core!"

Saying that.

Su Lie handed the tail feather to Su Liya.

Su Liya's eyes lit up upon hearing this. She excitedly took the rooster's tail feather from Su Lie's hand, but just as she was about to present the feather to the roots of the nearby datura flower seedling.

Su Lie grabbed Su Liya's hand: "Feed it to the datura flower in 3 seconds!"

After speaking.

Su Lie's figure flashed, and he once again traveled to the lowest point of the mine shaft via the Teleportation Mark.

This time.

He did not use the power of the rules of the invisibility ring...
