Chapter 183: Evil Knife Mantis
Chapter 181
Strictly speaking, icy blue eyes could only be considered materials. But unlike the other materials, this pair of eyes came from a Grade 3 Silver Fox King.
The icy blue turned dark blue. Although it was just a piece of material, it was also a natural magic treasure. It was even a magic treasure that specialized in illusions. It had a lot of nurturing value.
One did not even need to use other materials. They just needed to slowly nourish it, and they might be able to obtain a pair of magic treasure-level eyes.
When the time came, he could directly cover a cultivator’s pupils with it and give the cultivator super vision and illusion abilities.
This was much stronger than spells. It could also be instantly bestowed. It was extremely practical. Moreover, such magic treasure materials were rare.
Just harvesting the icy blue eyes was not something that could be done successfully on the first or second attempt. It was very difficult. It still depended on luck. It would be a blessing to be able to strip a pair out of a hundred successfully.
Moreover, these were the eyes of the Silver Fox King.
Therefore, Chen Jingzhai accepted it without any hesitation.
Of the five choices, of course, he had to choose the two most valuable ones. The second choice would be the prize that was the most suitable for him.
However, those icy blue Silver Fox King eyes would help him a lot, too.
After Chen Jingzhai completed the reward selection, he directly entered the Restriction.
On the fourteenth floor.
......
A half-black, half-yellow silhouette appeared in the center. After Chen Jingzhai appeared, it cracked slightly and revealed its human form.
“A granite demon?” Chen Jingzhai looked at him in surprise.
“Unreasonable human, I am a stone!” the granite demon snapped.
“Aren’t you a demon?” Chen Jingzhai asked with amusement.
“I am a stone!” the granite demon roared, flinging out a stone.
The stone broke through the air at an extremely fast speed. You could not see it clearly with the naked eye.
Chen Jingzhai focused slightly. He tapped the stone with his right index finger, and the stone shattered into powder.
The granite demon was furious. It took clumsy steps and punched Chen Jingzhai. Chen Jingzhai subconsciously dodged, but he realized that his speed was affected. An invisible force tugged at his body. Chen Jingzhai realized that this power came from the granite demon itself.
“Is it gravity or magnetism?” Chen Jingzhai frowned slightly.
Granite demons were considered spirit monsters. They could be found in the southern forest or in the Luanyun Mountain Range. These types of spirit monsters preferred silence to movement. The creature in front of him was a weirdo. Not only did he have a bad temper, but he also liked to fight in close combat.
Chen Jingzhai was expressionless as he struggled to break free from the invisible force. He waved his right hand and mobilized the spiritual essence in his body. As earth-type spell landed at the granite demon’s feet.
The granite demon immediately realized that its feet had gone soft, and its body was slowly sinking. Although it quickly steadied itself, it could only muster a step with much difficulty.
“Swamp, swamp!” the granite demon screamed in terror.
“That’s right, a swamp!” Chen Jingzhai chuckled and casually sent a water dragon flying out. It circled around the granite demon and kept circulating around to increase its weight.
The granite demon was terrified, irritable, and angry. It let out a strange cry at Chen Jingzhai. It even broke the rocks on its body and threw them at Chen Jingzhai.
Chen Jingzhai would probably be injured if he was really hit by these small stones. He did not fight it head-on but kept using the swamp technique. The swamp widened as the granite demon sank uncontrollably. Perhaps it had experienced trauma in a swamp before. When its calves were submerged, it suddenly clenched its fists.
An extremely powerful wave of energy erupted from its body. Large amounts of rubble shot in all directions with him at the center.
Chen Jingzhai was already prepared. He waved his hand and an earth wall blocked in front of him.
“It’s indeed the same as the records.” Chen Jingzhai shook his head.
Although the granite demon in front of him was a little strange, it was still a granite demon. This type of demon was not very intelligent. Its main characteristic was that it did not like to move much. Once its life was threatened, it would choose to self-destruct.
If it was in the mountains, this would be the right choice. Because after the self-destruction, there was a high chance that the granite demon would revive itself using another piece of granite in the mountains. However, this was the Demon Subduing Tower. There was no other granite piece it could leverage.
“It looks like gravity!” Chen Jingzhai muttered softly as he looked at the shattered rocks.
There were two main groups of granite demons. The two types of granite demons who had mastered gravity and magnetism had the same appearance. Relatively speaking, the magnetic granite demon was stronger. They could even use magnetism to take away a cultivator’s magic item.
As for the gravity granite demon, the power of gravity was not strong enough, and it was very difficult to increase it.
Chen Jingzhai could break free from the power as long as he did not get close.
This was the weakness of granite demons who mastered gravity. The range and power were actually very weak. Even if the other party did not self-destruct, Chen Jingzhai could still kill them. This self-destruction was completely beneficial to Chen Jingzhai.
Chen Jingzhai, who passed this level easily, smiled when he saw the Restrictions and rewards.
Arriving in front of the Restriction, the three prizes appeared before him.
The elixir was a Stone Skin Elixir. It could strengthen the flesh and increase defense. It was a superior Grade 2 elixir. The materials were very difficult to find, and even Chen Jingzhai had never gathered all of them.
The spirit weapon was a spiral stone hammer, a superior Grade 2 spirit weapon with gravity-type spells. Its attack power was already very strong, and it was quite heavy.
The third prize was the heart of the granite demon, a black stone. The heart of the granite demon was in his head. Ordinary cultivators had no idea. Most importantly, the heart of the granite demon was an excellent puppet-making material.
Perhaps it was because Chen Jingzhai’s killing speed had increased, but this prize in hand, the heart of a Grade 3 granite demon king was a size bigger than a normal fist and looked in excellent condition. Chen Jingzhai accepted it without hesitation.
On the fifteenth floor.
Chen Jingzhai encountered three vicious mantises on this floor. They were taller than a man, with exaggerated mantis legs that were sharper than magic items.
The three Evil Knife Mantises had also comprehended a metal attribute spell. This made their external defense very strong, and their attack power multiplied.
Chen Jingzhai kept attacking with water and fire spells, disrupting their rhythm.
However, he did not manage to hurt them.
The Evil Knife Mantis could even withstand a Grade 2 spell that had been enhanced by the Dharma Intent.
This forced Chen Jingzhai to use the Mourning Staff. The pitch-black Mourning Staff was engraved with ghost-face patterns. With a hiss, the Evil Knife Mantis knelt down.
“Looks like my guess was right. The weakness is the demon soul!” Chen Jingzhai smiled.
Any cultivator or demonic beast had a weakness. By seizing this weakness, they would have a chance to turn defeat into victory.
A mere Evil Knife Mantis did not even need Chen Jingzhai to use his special talent. He directly predicted the weakness of the Evil Knife Mantis because its demon soul was weak. It could not be said to be a guess. This was also a result of the accumulation of experience.
The Mourning Staff shattered half of the mantises’ bodies, and three of them died.
Chen Jingzhai came to the Restriction. This time, only two prizes appeared.
One was a Grade 2 Evil Warding Elixir, a type of elixir that could remove evil energy. It was a superior Grade 2 elixir.
The other was a pair of mantis knives, a superior Grade 2 spiritual item. It was rare to see them in pairs. Chen Jingzhai narrowed his eyes and thought about it. In the end, he chose the mantis knives as evil energy was not necessarily a bad thing for him.
Now that all the acupoints in his body had been opened, the official deities and subordinate deities constructed a formation. As long as it was not high-grade evil energy, it might not even be able to enter his body. A Grade 2 Evil Warding Elixir could only remove Grade 2 evil energy, so it was not very valuable.
After putting away the prize, Chen Jingzhai entered the next level with anticipation.
On the sixteenth floor.
The space was similar in size to the fifteenth floor. It was very empty. In the center was a beast cauldron. There was no fire burning beneath it. It looked cold.
“Congratulations on reaching the sixteenth floor.”
“There’s a Grade 2 item alchemist inheritance in the cauldron that records the refinement method of a Grade 2 spiritual item. You need to use the materials in the cauldron to refine an inferior Grade 2 spiritual item. You need to use the refining technique recorded in the jade slip. The time limit is eight hours.”
The spirit of the cave residence’s voice sounded. It still seemed empty and indifferent.
Chen Jingzhai was in no hurry to go forward. He frowned slightly and said, “I want to know if anyone has surpassed me? How many people in the tower have made it until now? At this level, I should be qualified to know, right?”
From the first level to the sixteenth level, counting the time spent on weapon refinement, Chen Jingzhai felt that several hours had passed. The most time he spent was on the first level of the weapon refinement assessment.
As for the rest, he would directly challenge the levels every time. It took less than half an hour.
“If you successfully pass this round, you can know the answer!” said the spirit of the cave residence.
Chen Jingzhai’s brows relaxed and he immediately stepped forward.
