Reborn as a tree

Chapter 196 Strengthening the Skull

He Jiu was quite interested in the undead.

It's not that He Jiu likes those zombies covered in carrion, he just covets the skeleton warriors everywhere.

If there is no formation arranged by He Tianliang, regardless of the outcome of this battle, the casualties will be far more than the present, and there may even be casualties of Ze-level warriors.

However, the opponent of the entire Shenmu City is only a living person, the necromancer Mo Liang.

One person forming an army really moved He Jiu's heart.

It's just that among so many magic books that He Jiu searched, there are very few about undead magic.

This made him think that there was no such thing as undead magic in this world.

However, today, this necromancer appeared in front of He Jiu alive, and even competed with He Jiu with various magic.

Undead magic is not only powerful, but also extremely strange.

If He Jiu hadn't been fully prepared this time, and his spiritual sense was stronger than Mo Liang, he might not have gained the upper hand in the magic confrontation.

In He Jiu's tree core, the breath of vitality and the breath of destruction each accounted for half.

However, those destructive breaths have never been very useful except for releasing lightning, which has always been He Jiu's heart disease.

'Undead magic...'

These words really tickled He Jiu's heart.

It's a pity that Mo Liang was too cautious, and never entered the formation arranged by He Tianliang from the beginning to the end.

Seeing that there was nothing to be done, he was extremely decisive and left the troops behind to flee, not even giving He Jiu the chance to hunt down.

As a last resort, He Jiu could only focus on the black warrior and chat with him.

Although he couldn't reversely deduce the undead magic from the remains of a black warrior.

However, the combination of the heart of the dead in his hand and a large number of skeleton soldier samples gave him a little more understanding of the undead.

He Jiu discovered that the core of the skeleton soldiers was the soul fire.

On the battlefield, many skeleton soldiers were beaten to the point where only a skull was left, but as long as the soul fire was not extinguished, the skeleton soldiers could still survive.

Some of the skulls can even be supported by their chins, and they can move the skulls little by little.

This situation made He Jiu quite interesting, and he quickly asked people to collect those skulls that were not dead yet.

Soon, dozens of still alive skulls lined up in front of He Jiushu.

Since there is no body and the soul fire is relatively dim, most of these skulls are relatively quiet, only a few are rolling around.

However, when He Jiu added death energy to them, the skulls soon came alive.

Most of them started rolling around, and a few started fighting with their heads on their chins.

There are even two skulls biting together, they bite each other's jaws, it seems quite intimate.

After observing for a while, He Jiu found that the behavior of these skeletons was basically irregular.

'How on earth did the necromancer control such a group of guys? '

He Jiu thought about it for a while, but he didn't want to understand the reason.

He tried to introduce a ray of faith into the skull.

When this ray of faith approached the skull's soul fire, it was quickly ignited, and the skull's soul fire became much stronger.

'This thing can really absorb the power of faith? '

This change immediately aroused He Jiu's interest, and he quickly sent in another ray of faith.

This ray of faith was the same as before, quickly ignited and became the nourishment of the soul fire.

Soon, the third strand, the fourth strand...

When the local thirteen strands of soul fire approached, the soul fire in the skull exploded suddenly.

Click!Click!Click...

Accompanied by a crisp sound, several cracks appeared on the skull of the skull.

And the soul fire in the skull quickly extinguished after erupting.

Soon, the skull turned into broken bones all over the place.

'This thing can also be broken? ? ? '

He Jiu was really confused, and some not-so-good memories instantly came to mind.

After a while, he picked out another skull and continued to experiment.

This time, he used a ray of reddish power of faith.

This kind of colorful power of faith carries an extremely strong obsession, and He Jiu dare not absorb it directly.

However, when dealing with the black warrior before, this power of faith was quite easy to use.

He Jiu is going to try whether this power of faith is more effective for the undead.

When this reddish power of faith approached the skeleton's soul fire, it was quickly ignited just like ordinary power of faith.

However, this power of faith slightly changed the color of the soul fire inside the skull.

He Jiu immediately took out the second and third strands...

When the fifth ray of reddish power of faith was ignited, the entire skull unexpectedly emitted a faint red light.

The skull of this skeleton seems to be undergoing some kind of change during the calcination of this reddish soul fire.

In order to do a controlled experiment, He Jiu did not stop the research, but continued to introduce the reddish power of faith into the skull.

Soon, the sixth strand, the seventh strand...

When twenty wisps of faith were ignited, the soul fire in the skull finally erupted again.

This time the power was much stronger than the first time, and dense cracks immediately appeared on the entire skull.

But this time, the soul fire in the skull did not go out immediately, but flickered for a while before dissipating reluctantly.

Vaguely, He Jiu felt that the skull seemed to have some kind of connection with him before it went out.

It's just that the soul fire was too weak at that time, He Jiu couldn't grasp this feeling.

'Could it be that the power of faith can mutate the soul fire?It's just that these skulls are too fragile, so they can't withstand this mutation? '

After pondering for a while, He Jiu continued to experiment.

This time he slowed down, and at the same time drew out a pure breath of death from the heart of the dead to cover the third skull.

He Jiu found that the strong soul fire seemed to be able to change the pure death energy.

And the changed death energy melted into the skull little by little, gradually strengthening the skull.

Gradually, the color of the skull becomes darker and the texture seems to become more and more compact.

After No. 19 ray of light blue power of faith was ignited, the soul fire in the third skull erupted silently.

click!
After a crisp sound, only a shallow crack appeared on the third skull.

After flickering for a while, the soul fire in the skull finally stabilized on the verge of extinguishing.

'It's done? '

He Jiu sensed the change of the skull with some joy.

After a while, he found that this skull gave him the feeling that it was a bit similar to his own shallow disciple.

He Jiu could only vaguely feel its state, but could not control the skull.

'Could it be that the degree of strengthening is not enough? '

He intends to continue to strengthen it, but the soul fire in the skull is already extremely weak, obviously it can no longer withstand the stimulation of the power of faith.

And the death energy around him can only keep the soul fire in the skull alive.

For the soul fire that has been lost, it seems that there is no obvious recovery effect.

Just as He Jiu was thinking of a solution, an ordinary skull rolled to the side of the strengthened skull.

The strengthened skull suddenly moved, and he bit the eye socket of another skull.

Accompanied by the sound of "Kaka", the eye socket of another skull was directly crushed.

The soul fire in the crushed skull turned into a wisp of blue smoke and was sucked into the strengthened skull.

Soon, the soul fire in the brain of the strengthened skull returned to the state before it was strengthened, and even faintly strengthened.

'So it is! '

Seeing this, He Jiu quickly ordered people to go to the pile of skeletons to search for the surviving skulls.
