Chapter 1156: The Nature of Life (Part 2)

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

Most mages would only specialize in one branch of magic. For the other five branches of magic, all of their cultivation was mainly in magical theory and the corresponding magic chords, for the sake of a smoother advancement.

Even Jason had also only specialized in Water Flame magic.

Saleen was limited by his magic chords. At first, he had only researched water magic. After advancing to level 9, Saleen’s combat style had not yet been fixed, but because of the laws he had comprehended.

Other mages would first cultivate a territory, then cultivate a law. Saleen had first gathered knowledge about laws, and then cultivated a territory at level 10.

Saleen’s combat was like the water element: it could change into a variety of forms.

The two puppets had been damaged, which was swiftly caught by Saleen. He immediately gave up on using the Thunder Dragon Blaster to attack. Instead, he retrieved a magic staff from his ring and released the magical power that was stored within the magic staff.

The Endless Night engulfed the two puppets. Saleen sent the water ball in the second Shenhe. The water ball had been refined by Saleen the earliest. At first, it only had the Current Cutter form, but after changing its restrictions to a water ball, various kinds of symbols, magic patterns, and flashes of lightning floated inside of it.

The water ball entered the Endless Night, exploding with a violent light between the two puppets. Electric current shot out, forming a tight electric web and caging the two puppets inside.

The grade of the two puppets was high and their combat power was indisputable. It was a pity that the two were afraid of death and stuck a thread of soul onto the gigantic puppet’s soul, continuously stealing the gigantic puppet’s soul power.

That was why the gigantic puppet had no way to continue to grow. It was unable to detect that it was providing life to the two ancient figures. However, the instincts of life enabled it to want to leave them. Saleen’s appearance allowed the gigantic puppet to make up its mind.

The two ancient puppets only wanted to get through the difficult times and then help the gigantic puppet to dispel the curse, but the two discovered that the curse was difficult to dispel and their intention to help the gigantic puppet faded.

Life was selfish. If the gigantic pupper gained release, then all of the curse could only be carried by the two of them. The rest of the puppets had long been on their last legs.

Because of selfishness, the soul divided by the two puppets was erased, and the two of them suffered damage that surpassed the degradation of their bodies. Their analysis of souls was not in depth. Being able to divide out a thread of soul was completely an instinctual power that the most basic grade could achieve.

They did not know how to protect both the soul that had been broken and the soul in their own bodies. When the two threads were erased, the two puppets immediately turned weak and limp, and the spare parts all over their bodies had all loosened.

A huge wound appeared on their souls, and soul power flowed out of it. Saleen’s Endless Night was released, the two puppets had no way of resisting. The electric net released by the water ball captured them, and Saleen was too lazy to tame them. He could directly allow the elemental creatures in the territory to feed on the two puppets.

The two puppets’ level, even now, was level 12, which had nothing to do with their combat ability. The energy in their bodies was unusually great. The elemental creatures in Saleen’s territory were immortal, but devouring the two would still be relatively difficult. Saleen was not in a hurry, his newly derived territory’s combat ability was strong, and it happened to require energy to be replenished.

Even more puppets rushed into Saleen’s territory, but the large puppet became half asleep. The Eternal Control shard was not an evil type of controlling equipment. Any soul that was attacked by the Eternal Control shard would receive the protection of the shard. The gigantic puppet’s soul had taken severe damage, and on top of that was the power of the curse that was still working against the soul.

The natural Goddess’ godly power that was stuck onto the Eternal Control shard began to repair the gigantic puppet’s soul. On the outside, Saleen used his own territory to devour the thousands of puppets.

The puppets did not know fear, so they advanced. Within Saleen’s territory, the combat ability of the elemental creatures was maintained at the strongest state per Saleen’s understanding. It was the original state of the law, once the elemental creatures’ territory was complete, within Saleen’s territory range, professionals of the same grade would never be their match.

The assassins that Saleen was worried about were no longer a concern. However no matter how strong the assassin was, they could not possibly deal with that many strong living creatures, especially the two types of giant dragons. The dragon’s might was able to destroy most concealment skills. Furthermore, within the territory, assassins also had no way of hiding their traces.

Saleen was afraid of the assassins’ sneak attacks, and not their head-to-head battles.

There were so many puppets, and the true level of each of them was so high, having devoured so many puppets. Saleen’s territory immediately produced a new change. His elemental creatures’ territory did not expand, but derived a third type of territory – puppet world.

The puppets that had been killed appeared one by one in Saleen’s new territory. The puppet world wrapped around the outside of Saleen’s elemental creatures territory, and the water element territory was inside that.

The water element territory’s range was only several meters, while the elemental creatures’ territory’s range had a diameter of close to 800 meters.

The new puppet world territory controlled a radius of one li, but it was constantly enriching and expanding itself.

Saleen was extremely envious of the oracles who had territorial ranges of several li. Now, the area controlled by his three layers of territories were able to be counted in li.

Saleen did not know how the time was flowing, but the Magical Element Tower was suppressing the exit, so he did not need to worry about others destroying the spatial pathway. The temple was not connected to the Myers Continent by teleportation portal, so its stability was the strongest, but it could also be easily found by others, and it was easy to enter.

Saleen was not afraid of any future trouble. After the Magical Element Tower was sealed off, there were very few professionals on the Myers Continent who could be captured. The level 12 oracle would need to rely on the terrazzo’s effort to slowly deal with it. Only then could the defenses of the Magical Element Tower be broken.

If Saleen was around, he could use the properties of the magical tower and borrow the power of the magic power furnace, and people would not dare go near the magical tower.

“Spare us!” After Saleen cancelled the Endless Night, the two puppets saw the situation clearly and were scared out of their wits. The electric net released by the water ball wrapped them up, and the puppets were not capable of resisting.

“I won’t spare you.” Saleen smiled slightly while replying. His puppet world territory could devour the two, and they would be replicated in the puppet world. He did not need puppets with a soul. The two guys and Rossen were different. Rossen was created by Saleen, and they were like friends, and also like father and child.

As for the two puppets? They wanted to harm their most important companion. They were puppets, but they were just like humans: capable of doing the worst things. Saleen did not hold much interest in their souls.

“Mage, aren’t you afraid that once we die, you will be attacked by the curse?” The puppet without legs scared Saleen.

“Of course I’m not afraid,” Saleen swung the Ring of Gifts. On the Ring of Gifts, the green natural Goddess’ godly power shone faintly.

“So you are the gods’ lackey!” The puppet without an arm swore harshly.

“Really, how tragic. The two of you just wait to be devoured and assimilated into my territory. Communicating with you is a disgrace to my intelligence.” Saleen no longer wanted to say anything to the two things. His elemental creatures’ territory surrounded the two puppets, and Saleen began to wholeheartedly concentrate on dealing with the other puppets in the periphery.

Thousands of puppets charged, but only a few hundred could come into contact with Saleen. Following the expansion of Saleen’s territory, the number of puppets that could enter the territory also increased.

Saleen did not spare even one, converting the puppets into territorial power and replicating them one by one. The third territory gradually expanded to 4 li, and the radius in which Saleen could attack reached more than 2 li.

“Mage? Mage!” The two puppets in the elemental creatures territory yelled loudly. After they confirmed that Saleen would not pay any attention to them, the two puppets then began to panic and blame each other. The two who had supported each other for more than 10,000 years began to swear at each other.

The two puppets soon began to attack one another. After devouring the other one, even if they could not escape Saleen’s control, they could resist for a period of time.

For the sake of the small benefit, the two puppets quickly fell out with each other. The surrounding elemental creatures eyed them covetously, but did not attack.

The radius of Saleen’s three territories added together had grown to 4 li. It was capable of enveloping Metatrin City. At least 50,000 puppets had been devoured by the territory, although Saleen temporarily could not replicate all of these puppets for combat, the puppet’s energy had been absorbed.

The power of a level 10 mage’s territorial power was close to the Bright Light territory created by the oracle.

Saleen expertly scraped out everything from the distance and took all of the puppets into the territory. Saleen could confirm that the puppets did not come from the Myers Continent. Perhaps, in the future, he could find the puppets’ plane and expand his own territory to its pinnacle.

As the number of puppets devoured increased, Saleen was able to roughly calculate the direction of his territory.

After all the puppets disappeared, Saleen dispersed the elemental creatures, and returned to the two puppets who possessed souls. The gigantic puppet had not yet awakened, and Saleen put it in a Dimension Stone. Under the protection of the Eternal Control shard, the gigantic puppet would not have any problems with entering the Dimension Stone space.

“Are you volunteering to be devoured by me? Or will you let me strengthen and use you?” Saleen asked the two puppets, who were at the end of their rope.
