My health recovery is incredibly fast.

Christo took this person's identity seriously.

He is a cousin of the escaped deputy leader and may also know how to transfer the shrine candles onto the elemental body.

"Shazo, get ready, I need your cooperation," Christo whispered instructingly.

"You must monitor this person's spiritual state while in a meditative state. If his spirit exhibits any unusual behavior while his body is asleep, you must immediately take control of his spirit. Of course, your own safety is paramount; do not act rashly."

"Yes, sir."

Following the other party's instructions, Xia Zuo crawled into the tent next to the spellcasting site.

After the tribal members were escorted to the scene and given the secret medicine, Xia Zuo immediately entered a meditative state.

He obtained a replica of the shrine from Christo, enough for his spirit to detect the spirits of the tribe members.

Xia Zuo estimated the time, activated the elemental shell on his spirit body, hung the replica spirit shrine with the flickering candlelight on his waist, and stepped out of the tent.

Xia Zuo has been walking around in his soul-seeing state for at least three or four hours in the past few days, and his experience in exploring with the spirit shrine is already very rich.

You could even say that—

If he could obtain a real spirit shrine, he could use his spirit form to travel from the circular island back to the Eastern Continent.

Only he could do it.

Others worry that their spiritual connection might be accidentally severed, causing their spirit to lose the support of its body and instantly vanish.

Xia Zuo is the only one who doesn't need to worry about this.

A cheat code resides within his spiritual thread.

Based on his confidence in his cheat-like abilities, Xia Zuo didn't think anything could sever his spiritual threads.

That is, until Xia Zuo saw the spirit of the target of this observation.

The other person's body fell into a deep sleep, leaning back in the chair with their head tilted to the side.

His spirit, holding a spiritual carving knife that appeared out of nowhere, was rapidly cutting the candles in the shrine.

The shrine candles look no different from ordinary candles, but they are very hard and durable.

The blade of the spiritual carving knife rubbed back and forth against the surface of the candle, cutting off only powdery fragments.

Under Xia Zuo's secret gaze, the spirits of the tribe members kneaded the candle shavings into the elemental shells of their bodies, and then moved the elemental shells piece by piece onto their spirits.

Um..

It turned out to be the case.

That spiritual carving knife is the key.

This was the first time Xia Zuo had ever seen a weapon that a spirit could use.

Since it can cut powder from the candle in the spirit shrine, it must be able to cause a lot of damage to the spirit and the elemental shell on the spirit's body.

What happens if a spirit is injured?

do not know.

I've never encountered this situation before.

Xia Zuo immediately became wary.

He circled the target halfway around, came behind the target, and then approached the target step by step.

The [Mage Hands] on the two spirit arms entered combat mode, clinging tightly to the spirit's surface to provide maximum protection.

Spirits can use spells, but only a very small number of spells based on psychic energy are effective.

Xia Zuo plans to subdue his target using close-quarters combat skills.

He clenched his fist, feeling the difference between spiritual power and physical power, and then estimated the changes in arm span and stance.

Then..

Xia Zuo's spirit lowered its center of gravity, crouched, and darted out. Its left arm bent into a sharp hook, firmly gripping the target's neck, while its right hand gripped the target's right hand, pushing away the spiritual carving knife.

The tribal members who secretly transferred the elemental bodies have not yet completely transferred the elemental bodies to their spirit bodies.

His spiritual power is far inferior to that of Xia Zuo.

Xia Zuo barely had to exert any effort to pin the other's spirit to the ground.

He bent his legs and used his hard knees to press against the other person's lower back, firmly locking the other person's lower body's range of movement, preventing the other person from turning around or raising their upper body.

Xia Zuo suddenly increased the energy output to his right arm, the [Mage's Hand], further enhancing its power bonus.

He gripped the other person's right wrist and snapped the other person's forearm.

The spiritual carving knife slipped from the target's hand and fell to the ground.

Xia Zuo grabbed the spiritual carving knife and plunged it hard into the other person's back!

The spiritual carving knife sliced ​​through the spirit like cutting tofu, scraping off a large chunk of golden-white "flesh".

The light on the piece of meat dimmed rapidly, and in an instant it turned into gray smoke and disappeared.

This is the power of the spiritual carving knife.

He stood up and looked down at the motionless spirit of the tribe member. A section of the person's back had collapsed and could not recover for a long time, with the spirit carving knife still stuck in the wound.

Is he dead?

Xia Zuo scratched his head, turned to look at the other person's body, and then looked at the bodies of the other people present.

Krestor was standing beside a member of the tribe, casting some kind of detection spell to check the condition of their body.

Clearly, what happened in the realm of spiritual insight affected the material world, and the damage suffered by the spirit was reflected back onto the body.

Chapter 87 Sealing

Xia Zuo crouched down and pulled out the spiritual carving knife from the spirit's body.

He returned to the tent by the same route, and after confirming that no one was around, he cast a detection spell on the spiritual carving knife.

[props characteristics]

Rich in spirituality: It can be placed in the ocean of the mind.

Destroy spirits: Can effectively kill spirit creatures or destroy spirit items.

The remaining characteristics are unknown.

...

Can this thing be placed in the ocean of the mind?

Xia Zuo was startled.

If it can be placed in the ocean of the mind, it also means that it can be used in the material world.

Xia Zuo originally thought that this was just a special tool that could be used in the state of soul vision.

Xia Zuo grasped the carving knife and used totem language to outline the patterns for storing spiritual items.

The spiritual carving knife vanished without a trace, turning into scattered specks of light.

Xia Zuo exited his meditative state, awoke in the tent in the material world, and summoned his spiritual carving knife.

Under the sunlight, the appearance of the spiritual carving knife became even clearer.

The tactile sensation of the body told Xia Zuo that this seemed to be a bone knife.

The blade was thicker than expected and couldn't cut through the skin.

It is only the size of a quill pen and very light, making one suspect that it is hollow inside.

Xia Zuo pointed the knife tip upwards and saw a tiny round hole at the very tip.

Hmm... what is the real purpose of this thing? Is it a bone injector?

I don't understand.

Shazo scratched his head, lifted the tent flap, and walked towards Christo.

"Sir, I have discovered something."

Xia Zuo handed over the spiritual carving knife. "Just now, during the soul-seeing process, this guy was using this tool to cut the shrine candles, attempting to use the candle powder to transfer the elemental shell from his body to his spirit."

Xia Zuo looked at the unconscious tribesman and pointed to his back. "I used this tool, which looks like a carving knife, to stab his back and cut off a fragment of his spirit. Then his spirit lay motionless on the ground."

Christo examined the spiritual carving knife with great interest, her eyes brimming with curiosity.

She cast an appraisal spell, and the feedback only intensified her curiosity.

"Interesting props, which have never been included in the records of the Tower scholars."

Christie's eyes flashed with a faint bloodlust as he glanced at the backs of the tribesmen. "The damage this tool inflicts on spirits will transfer to the body. This guy has lost a lot of his life force; if you had stabbed him in the back, he might have died instantly."

"Huh?" Xia Zuo was taken aback for a moment, then cast a detection spell on the tribe members.

The opponent's elemental body was incomplete, and its health data was accurately detected.

..

[Health] 60/110 (Severe coma, spirit damaged)

Deep coma: Complete loss of consciousness, unable to respond to external stimuli, lasting for 2 days and 14 hours.

Spiritual Injury: The spirit is severely injured, and its maximum health is reduced by 50% until the spirit is fully healed.

..

So that attack launched with the spiritual carving knife had such great power...
