Chapter 87 The Sacrifice of the 3-year Soul Beast
With an excited heart and trembling hands, Jiang Li hurriedly opened the wooden box without saying a word.

It was indeed a piece of soul bone, slender and elongated, a bit like a skull, about one-fifth the size of an adult man's skull, a little incomplete, and when it was taken out, it still had a slight cyan luster.

"This is... the skull spirit bone?"

Jiang Li stroked the skull, startled.

In the same year, apart from the external spirit bones and torso bones, the most precious one is undoubtedly the skull.

"That's right, this is a soul bone dropped by a 5000-year-old cutout beast."

Gretel smiled faintly and stood up.

"Skipping Beast? I haven't heard of it."

Jiang Li scratched his head, but in fact he was so disappointed in his heart, 3 years... Hearing Jiang Po's words before, he thought that Gretel would give him a soul bone that was at least 5 years old.

But he is not a person who wants to look forward to Shu, no matter what, this is a gift from Gretel, and he is free to give him what he wants, so he can't know what is good or bad, right?
"I know, you must be a little confused, why I gave you a 3-year-old skull."

Gretel's eyes sank and said.

"This soul bone comes from a 3-year-old cut-off beast. This soul beast is extremely cherished, and because of the internal competition of this kind of soul beast and the survival of the fittest, the number of soul beasts that survive from generation to generation will only decrease."

"On the current mainland, the cut-off beast is almost extinct, and there are very few people who know it, and finally faded out of the world of soul masters."

"I intercepted the relevant information of the empty beast in the ancient scroll. According to the records, this kind of soul beast has a well-known name in the world of soul masters——Woundless Beast."

"Injuryless? A soul beast that won't be injured?"

Jiang Lie's eyelids trembled in disbelief.

"No wounds, it's just its surface. The reason why it's called Cutout Beast is because it can intercept a part of the space for its own use, and has the ability to transform space and superimpose deformation."

"To use a metaphor, if you stand in front of it and want to kill it, but once it uses its interception ability, you will be transferred to other places."

"To put it bluntly, one second you were in front of it, and the next moment, you may appear in your own home. It is as difficult as reaching the sky to touch it."

"If it's a powerful 10-year truncated beast, the strong space fluctuations and associated storms are enough to tear your existence apart during the period when you are teleported away, killing you invisible."

Gretel frowned when he said this, "It's just a pity that this kind of soul beast rarely breaks through the 10-year barrier. I am lucky to meet a [-]-year soul beast."

"Transforming space... so powerful? But if this is the case, how did you kill it?"

As soon as Jiang Li breathed out, he had this soul bone in his hand, which was enough to explain the problem.

Gretel was taken aback for a moment, as if caught in a short memory, the corners of his mouth raised unconsciously.

"When I encountered it in the core area of ​​the dead forest, it was already dying."

"And you killed it?"

Jiang Lie's eyes widened, this luck is against the sky!

"No, I didn't kill it. I prefer the living ones to the dead ones, especially its cherished spirit beasts. Killing it to absorb the spirit ring is better than using it for myself, so I brought it back. out of college."

"At that time, I was only a soul emperor of level 60, so, compared to the soul ring, I prefer the time spent with it."

Gretel smiled, "But the good times didn't last long. Although I kept raising it, the god of death still took its life."

"Before it died, it was sacrificed to me, and it became my seventh spirit ring, leaving behind this spirit bone."

Gretel sat down gently, with deep eyes, looked at the shocked Jiang Li, and smiled.

"It seems that you don't believe it, but the fact is true. Even before it was sacrificed, you asked me if it has only been cultivated for more than 3 years, is it not qualified to be my seventh spirit ring..."

"It did this to repay your life-saving grace." Jiang Li nodded with a complicated expression.

If a soul beast chooses to sacrifice, a soul bone will definitely appear.

"Not only that, maybe, it wants to accompany me in another way?"

Gretel smiled, and seemed to be a little uncertain about himself.

"Actually, at the beginning, I only saved it with the mentality of using it. But later, even I didn't know it. As time went by, I already regarded it as my friend."

"And its final choice, I think, is also a decision it made after careful consideration."

"After that, every time I used the seventh soul ability, it was as if an old friend was talking by my side."

After Gretel finished speaking, she turned her head and put a hand on his shoulder, "Do you want to feel it?"

"Huh?" Jiang Li hadn't reacted yet, only felt the world spinning before his eyes.

"Deportation."

"Shh."

The next moment, they had already appeared outside the Human Face Tree, as if everything was just a dream.

"This……"

Jiang Li stared wide-eyed, looking at the surrounding scene, it was unbelievable, the ability to transform space is really miraculous.

"But, shouldn't the seventh soul skill be the Spirit Avatar? Why..."

Jiang Lie suddenly realized, he hesitated to speak.

Up to now, he still doesn't know what Gretel's martial spirit is.

"You will know this later."

"Now, let's absorb the spirit bone."

Gretel used expulsion again, and the two returned to their previous positions in a blink of an eye.

"Since it's a sacrifice, you still have its seventh spirit ring, I can't take this spirit bone..."

Jiang Li gritted his teeth, hesitated for a moment, and shook his head.

"The soul ring and soul bone dropped by a soul beast, it is best to be absorbed by that person alone to get the greatest benefit, and..."

"You didn't choose to absorb this spirit bone for so many years. It should be out of nostalgia, and you want to keep it forever."

Gretel was taken aback, as if he didn't expect Jiang Lie to express his thoughts like this, and smiled lightly.

"That's true, but...there are no absolutes in the world, the spirit bone can provide you with strength and protection...so now, it is yours, and with it, you also have the ability to protect yourself."

"I think this is what Xiao Kong wants to see."

"Xiaokong..."

Jiang Li rubbed the skull in his hand, met Gretel's serious gaze, nodded, and without hesitation, sat cross-legged and began to absorb the soul bone.

Gretel watched this scene from the side, nodded in relief, and sighed.

Who said that soul beasts have no feelings for humans, it's just that there are too few of them, but the friends of the two opposing lineups must be friends of life and death.

Bright white light shone on Jiang Li, and gentle power gradually spread in the tree house, like a friendly whisper.

It took a long time for Jiang Li to open his eyes. He didn't say anything else, but his soul power had increased by one level, and his head seemed to be filled with mysterious power.

"How? How does it feel."

Gretel stood beside him and asked.

"In addition to raising the soul power by one level, the soul skill of the soul bone is called so close to the end of the world. It can forcibly push back all enemies within [-] meters of itself, pull them into the chaotic space, and then lock the space for one second."

Jiang Li stretched his arms, looking very excited. As expected of a magic skill, with this move, he could completely fight back or escape smoothly.

"It looks pretty good."

Gretel nodded and smiled slightly.

"Boy, come on, I look forward to your performance in the next time, you have a good rest."

After all, he disappeared out of thin air and left.

"Huh, come on..."

Jiang Li sat down on the bed and quickly covered the quilt, but his mood could not be calmed down for a long time.
