Final Lord

Chapter 208 Purifying the Spiritual Spring

Blind Cat: ...

Wang Bubu:...

Wang, enraged, yelled, "You dare to act and lie to me? You're asking for it! Activate overload mode again and blast me!"

Blind Cat: "My lord, please calm down. It's already on! Overload mode has been on the whole time and hasn't been turned off."

Just then, the metal shell of the corrupted root nest suddenly cracked open with honeycomb-like holes, and thousands of [cultist parasites] gushed out, carrying a dense fog of spores.

These bodies, modified by mycelium, wore rotting sacrificial robes, and their chest cavities pulsed with symbiotic hearts that were a fusion of metal and flesh.

At the same time, more than twenty [corrupted metal bodies] crawled out of the cracks in the swamp, their tattered metal shells flowing with fluorescent pus from the spiritual spring.

Wang Bufu was overjoyed: "See, it rebelled! I knew this monster was up to no good."

Wei Yi and Tina, you two lead the troops to block the metal structure on the east side! Shell Armor, you come too, don't let a single metal lump get in.

Wang Bufu's troops immediately charged forward, with the harpy leading the charge, followed closely by Wei Yi and Shell Armor.

The serrated totem on the shell suddenly swelled, and the six chelicerae gripped the alloy joint of a corroded metal body tightly.

"Smash it for me!" The shell's venomous stinger drew blinding sparks as it slashed across the metal body's chest. The power of a Level 1 Extraordinary cultivator could only leave white marks on the corrupted metal body.

Dark purple mycelium suddenly shot out from the metal body's eye sockets, instantly wrapping around the shell's breathing holes.

"Cough... Totem... Explode!" The armored creature painfully detonated the serrated totem on its carapace, the shockwave sending the metal body back three steps. But the metallic moss on its chest suddenly proliferated, and the shattered armor regenerated at a speed visible to the naked eye.

The metallic figure unleashed a powerful punch carrying a shockwave, shattering the calcified carapace of its shell. Just as it staggered, about to be pierced by the claws, a beam of white feathered sword light suddenly tore through the dense spore fog!

Wei Yi's sword energy fell like a meteor, and the high-frequency vibrating blade pierced through the gaps in the regenerated metal armor. The extraordinary level 4 power forcefully pinned the metal body into the mud.

“Your fighting style is wrong.” Wei Yi’s sword hilt lightly tapped the shell armor shoulder plate, and the powerful energy shattered the mycelium that was wrapped around him. “When your strength is insufficient to shake the opponent, what you should do is not to fight head-on, but to delay as much as possible.”

Only when you have enough strength can you be like me!

With a single swing of his sword, sixteen afterimages pierced through the joints of the metal body in an instant. When the sword light subsided, the monster that had given the armored creature a hard fight had turned into a pile of mud on the ground.

In the compound eyes of the shell armor, a strand of long hair that had fallen as Wei Yi sheathed her sword was reflected.

He clenched his fists tightly, his chest trembling.

"So powerful! This is the power I've been searching for! One day, I'll be as strong as her!" In confined spaces like underground, the two summons from the Corrupted Root Nest would be formidable. But on the surface, their combat strength seems inadequate.

Soon, under the suppression of Wang Bufu's forces, all the summoned monsters became corpses.

"Now! Full power!" Wang Bufu seized the opportunity, and five magic cannons, overloaded to their limits, roared simultaneously. Rune shells exploded into energy tsunamis on the surface of the Corrupted Root Nest, the groans of the Corrupted Root Nest mixed with the hiss of melting metal.

Finally, the pus and blood from the corrupted spiritual spring gushed out, and the life value of the corrupted root nest was completely reduced to zero, leaving no trace of life.

The blind cat let out a breath and asked, "My lord, is it over?"

“No, this is just the beginning.” Wang Bufu shook his head and said, “The underground of this swamp has been ravaged by cultists. We need to use subterranean fire to burn down the entire surface and underground area. Only then can we truly eradicate the problem.”

Besides that, we also need to find a way to purify the corrupted spiritual spring.

"Huh? It really can purify!" Blind Cat exclaimed in surprise.

"If it were a chaotic spectacle that had been naturally corrupted by long-term chaos, then there would be no cure. But this corrupted spring of life is clearly man-made."

We have cut off the source of corruption, so its corruption will not worsen, and there is still hope for saving it.

After all, it's a natural wonder. Wang Bufu sighed inwardly.

Those players who were ruined by the chaotic wonders in their past lives all had the same gambling mentality as him. Most of them met a terrible end; only two players succeeded.

However, gambling without certainty is called gambling addict. Gambling with certainty is called gambling master!

Back then, we forgot the beginning, we forgot the middle, we forgot the end, but anyway, everyone stood up.

Let's give Wei Yi a cappuccino first, then get started!
Wang Bufu had the beetle people help him collect a large amount of tinder. First, they burned the corpses of the decaying root nest, and then burned it inch by inch down the burrow. It took three whole days. He then had the cavemen inspect the desolate wetlands for a week before confirming that all traces of decay had been cleaned up.

In the end, only a lonely, corrupted spring remained.

But the pollution caused by this chaotic spectacle surpasses that of 20 overlord monsters. If it is not dealt with, the desolate wetlands could still fall at any time. Wang Bufu doesn't even dare to light the fire.

Recalling the two methods that had successfully purified the corrupted spectacle, Wang Bufu decided to try them one by one.

Method 1 is a sacred sacrificial ceremony.

The first step is to sever the corrupted links, which Wang Bufu has already accomplished.

Then came the biological resonance purification. Wang Bufu found the remaining intelligent race, the Mud Eyes, in the Dead Wasteland. The poor Mud Eyes were even worse off than the Beetlemen; there wasn't a single individual even one level above the average. There were only about a hundred of them, all of them old, weak, sick, or disabled.

He instructed Elder Nix of the Miasma Clan to lead all the clansmen and all the Mud Eyes to sit around the spring and pray to the corrupted spring so that it could absorb pure, orderly energy.

Finally, Wang Bufu invested 20 gold coins, using the energy of order within the coins to suppress the chaos.

After the entire process was completed, the appearance of the corrupted spiritual spring changed somewhat, and some emerald-colored liquid could be seen in the flesh and blood gushing from the spring.

This shows that Wang Bufu is on the right path.

Unfortunately, only Wang Bufu continued to throw in gold coins, but the effect was not as obvious as the first time. He threw in 50,000 gold coins, but only heard a thud.
