1223 The strength of the cultivation world (1)
Zhao Hai sat in the bone cart with a glass of red wine in his hand. He took a sip, closed his eyes, and said softly,âEdison, are you curious as to why I was so interested in that skeleton and that small bone beast?â
Edison was confused. He did not understand why Zhao Hai would agree to a business contract with Ulee. A skeleton like that was not a strange thing in the underworld. Even if the small creatures were rare, they should not be valuable, right? Was there a need to sign a contract?
These words had been stuck in Edisonâs heart for a long time. They had already left skeleton city, and Zhao Hai and Ully had naturally signed the business contract. However, Edison did not think that the contract was necessary.
Hearing Zhao Haiâs question, Edison immediately returned to his senses. He looked at Zhao Hai and said in a deep voice, &Quot; yes, young master. I donât understand why youâre doing this. Although the space has already produced Soul Fire and soul crystals, itâs not good for you to waste them like this. &Quot;
Zhao Haiâs eyes were still closed. He waved his hand gently, and Edison felt another set of clothes on his body. Edison was stunned. He looked down and realized that he had put on a set of armor. The armor was made of bone, but it was very light and not hard at all. It felt very comfortable on his body.
Edison was stunned for a moment. Then, he looked at Zhao Hai in confusion. He did not understand what Zhao Hai meant by that. At that moment, Zhao Hai waved his hand again. There was a sudden wave in front of Edison, and a mirror-like object appeared.
Edison took a look at the mirror and saw a man in it. His face was a little pale, but he was wearing a mighty and extraordinary set of bone armor. The bone armor covered the entire body of the man, and there was not a single spot that was exposed. Although his face was still exposed, it was because he had not removed his mask. Most importantly, Edison found the armor very familiar.
Edison quickly realized why the armor looked so familiar. It was because he was the one wearing the armor and the pale-faced person was him. The helmet on the helmet was a Tigerâs helmet and there was a sharp horn on the top of the helmet. It looked exactly like the little beast that they were looking at.
Edison immediately understood that the armor was made from the craft of the little bone beast. While Edison was still examining the armor, Zhao Hai suddenly said,âGo and try it out, Edeline. See how this armor is.â
&Quot; okay, â Edison replied and turned around to exit the bone carriage. He then disappeared into the black fog. Zhao Hai was not in a hurry. He held onto his red wine and sipped it unhurriedly. After a while, a series of explosions came from the black fog. Slowly, the sounds of the explosions disappeared, and Edisonâs figure returned to the bone carriage.
Zhao Hai opened his eyes and looked at Edison, â âHow is it?â
Edison touched the armor on his body as if he was touching his loverâs skin. When he heard Zhao Haiâs question, he quickly replied,âYoung master, this armor is great. It increased my strength by about 20%, and it also increased my defense and speed by about 20%. Itâs great.â
Zhao Hai smiled faintly. He knew very well how difficult it was to level up at his level, especially in the underworld, a place that belonged to the lower realm. Not to mention, it was a 20% increase. It was precisely because of this that Edison was so happy.
Zhao Hai smiled,ânow you know why I bought those statues.â Remember, if you ever find something like that again, youâll buy it no matter how much it costs.â
âYes, young master, I understand,â Edison immediately replied.
Zhao Hai waved his hand, and the armor on Edisonâs body disappeared. In its place was a pendant. It was tied with a thin bone chain, and the design of the pendant was exactly the same as the statue of the small bone beast that Zhao Hai had bought. However, the statue was even smaller than before.
After putting the small pendant around Edisonâs neck, Zhao Hai looked at him and said, &Quot; Edlin, Iâll give this set of armor to you. When you want to use it, just inject a trace of energy into the pendant. &Quot;
Edison couldnât wait to try it out. He injected a bit of power into the pendant, and the bone armor quickly appeared on his body. When he wanted to remove it, he only needed to think about it to remove it.
Edison tried a few times and it was to no avail. He then turned to Zhao Hai and said excitedly,âThank you, young master.â
Zhao Hai smiled and said, â âAlright, thereâs nothing to be proud of. If your fighting strength increases, itâll be good for me too, right? In the future, if you encounter anything, you donât have to personally take action. Letâs go, where is the Lich you mentioned?â
Upon hearing Zhao Haiâs words, Edison immediately scanned the surroundings with his spirit power and directed the four undead creatures to fly in one direction.
Zhao Hai did not care about the direction of the bone carriage. He turned to Edison and said,âHow many days will it take for us to reach the Lich?â
Edison did some calculations and turned to Zhao Hai, &Quot; weâll be there in two days, but the place weâre going to is where the Lich is. I donât know where he lives, Iâve never been there. &Quot;
Zhao Hai nodded and said, â Iâm not concerned. Just take your time. Youâll find it eventually. Alright, take a good rest. Thereâs no rush. &Quot; Edison nodded, but lowered his head and fiddled with the little pendant as if he loved it so much that he could not let it go.
Zhao Hai didnât mind. He told Edison to come back to his Origin space. Today, he had received quite a lot of plants from his Origin space, so he had to take a good look at them.
Although the skeletons were good stuff for Zhao Hai, he couldnât use them now, so he didnât care about them. To him, the plants were the most important.
Most importantly, Zhao Hai had to discuss with Cai âer about the bone armor. The bone armor could enhance the combat strength of the undead creatures, which Zhao Hai had the most in his possession. If the combat strength of all the undead creatures could be enhanced, it would be great news for Zhao Hai.
However, Zhao Hai didnât have a lot of black soil. Even if he planted bone armors on the black soil, he didnât know how long it would take to grow enough bone armors.
Zhao Hai entered the origin space to discuss this matter with Cai âer. However, as soon as he entered the origin space, he froze for a moment, because Laura and the others were looking at the big skeleton.
The skeletons that Zhao Hai had collected were not complete. Many of them were incomplete, but even so, Zhao Hai still kept them. He just didnât expect Laura and the others to be fiddling with them.
Although Laura and the others werenât repulsed by the undead and had even gotten used to using them often, this was the first time they had seen such a skeleton up close.
When she saw Zhao Hai enter, Lola immediately said to him, â &Quot; big brother hai, come and take a look. This skeleton is so special. Itâs even tougher than the skeletons of the undead creatures in the boundless space. Itâs amazing. &Quot;
Zhao Hai was stunned when he heard Lauraâs words. He quickly walked to the skeleton. The skeleton was not complete. It only had the skull and ribs. The rest of the skeleton was missing.
Originally, when Zhao Hai collected these skeletons, they were all stained with mud. They did not look eye-catching at all. Other than the slightly larger heads, there was nothing special about them.
But now, the skeleton was different. It had been washed clean and turned white. It wasnât an ordinary pale white color, but like jade, emitting a white light and looking very beautiful.
Zhao Hai walked up to the skeleton and took a closer look. He noticed something special about the skeleton. There was a scratch on the chest of the skeletonâs rib. Although the scratch was not very big, it was very clear. From the position of the scratch, it seemed to be where the heart was.
Zhao Hai looked at the ribs and found that they were all intact. There were no scratches at all. Zhao Haiâs pupils shrank. Then, the staff in his hand turned into a sword. Zhao Hai swung the sword at the skeleton.
With a clang, the sword bounced off the skeleton. However, there was not a single mark on the skeleton. Zhao Haiâs move was out of Lauraâs expectations, but the result was even more unexpected.
Zhao Hai was also shocked. He knew that he had used 60% of his strength, but the skeleton was still intact. Not a single mark was left on it. This was enough to show how strong the skeleton was.
Zhao Hai used 80% of his strength to try again, but the result was the same. At the sight of the result, Zhao Hai waved his hand and put away the skeleton. Then, he entered the room with Laura and the others.
After sitting down in the house, Zhao Hai turned to Laura and the others, â âNot only these skeletons, but have you noticed that there are scratches on the skeletons? and those scratches arenât ordinary scratches, theyâre from sharp blades. In other words, these skeletons were killed when they were alive. You saw it just now, I used all my strength to cut down these skeletons, but I couldnât leave a single mark. These skeletons have been here for so many years, but theyâre still so hard. However, they were still killed by someone. In other words, there was an existence stronger than them who killed them. It seems that this matter isnât simple.â
Hearing Zhao Haiâs words, Laura and the others were stunned. Then, their expressions changed. However, Laura immediately said, â &Quot; thereâs nothing to worry about, big brother hai. Just like you said, these skeletons have existed for who knows how many years. Their enemies from back then should no longer exist. Thereâs nothing to worry about. &Quot;
Zhao Hai sighed. &Quot; of course thereâs nothing to worry about in the underworld. The strongest person in the underworld is only about the same level as Edison. However, I suspect that these skeletons didnât come from the underworld in the first place. If these skeletons are also from the cultivation world, then weâll have to reevaluate the strength of the people there. &Quot;
