Spellcasting is a permanent addition and my skills are all forbidden spells.

"absorb!"

Lu Cheng's mind was spinning.

"brush……"

The mana flows, wrapping up the dark ice stones and absorbing their energy.

Not long after, the system prompts sounded continuously.

[Ding, the ice element energy has been absorbed successfully, and the ice element energy you control has been enhanced! 】

[You gain intelligence +1, spirit +1, ice skill damage increase +1%, ice control reduction +3%! 】

[Ding, the ice energy was successfully absorbed...]

…

The pieces of ice soul stone faded rapidly, and the ice energy in them disappeared into Lu Cheng's body.

In the blink of an eye, he absorbed seven or eight dark ice soul stones.

When it came to the eleventh piece, Lu Cheng stopped.

This is a one-turn ice material, and the upper limit of absorption is ten times.

After glancing at the remaining ice soul stones, there was indeed a system prompt.

[Ding, the absorption failed, and the ice energy absorption reached the upper limit in the first turn. 】

Listening to the system prompts, Lu Cheng didn't care.

Naturally, this kind of absorption cannot continue indefinitely.

Moreover, absorbing ten ice soul stones has brought him considerable gains.

The bonuses from attribute points are only secondary.

Mainly two special effects. Now, the enhancement of his ice skills has been increased to 20%, and the ice control reduction has reached 60%.

Lu Cheng was in a good mood and continued to collect ice soul stones.

Soon, he put all the exposed ice stones into the storage space.

"These are embedded in the stone wall and can be mined later."

Lu Cheng made a mental note of the location of the ice cave.

The strategic resource of ice soul stone is very popular in the early stage of the disaster and cannot be wasted.

After collecting the Ice Soul Stone, next is the Ice Cave Demon!

Lu Cheng drew out his staff and moved forward.

But at this moment, a message came from the communication channel.

"Lu Shen! I have a situation report!"

The person who sent the private message was a pastor named Sun Xu.

"The thing is like this, we have found more than three hundred survivors and are on the way to lead them back to the settlement."

"They said that their original settlement number was 1548. Not long before the monster wave arrived, they suffered a natural selection battle. The situation was very similar to the one we encountered. Everyone's attributes were deducted!"

"The one who launched the natural selection against them was a settlement from the Lighthouse Country. The number was very high, it seemed to be 85!"

"I thought I wouldn't threaten us, so I came to report!"

Sun Xu's heart was racing very fast, and he sent a long paragraph in a swipe, which was obviously written in advance.

"Well, I understand, don't worry."

Lu Cheng thought in response.

He was not too surprised when this happened.

Their settlement was definitely not the only one to encounter a duel of natural selection.

Because there are many types of natural selection props, and there is more than one way to obtain them.

If you kill a monster, there is a small chance that it will explode.

"It's just that this settlement No. 85..."

Thinking about it, Lu Cheng narrowed his eyes slightly.

This settlement in the Lighthouse Country was also notorious in its previous life.

The number of times natural selection is activated is not much less than that of Settlement No. 93 of Japan.

Moreover, this settlement also believes in a god. After natural selection wins, it will forcefully demand faith!

In the past life, many people were poisoned by them.

However, with his current combat power, he is not afraid of a natural selection duel.

Shaking his head slightly, Lu Cheng continued to move forward.

"Huh...huh..."

In his ears, the devil's whispers kept ringing, mixed with gasps.

The deeper we go into the ice cave, the thicker the whisper becomes.

However, there is a soul that resists the body protection, and this devil's whisper cannot affect him.

Instead, it pointed out the location of the Ice Cave Demon.

Lu Cheng moved forward very quickly.

After killing the three elite demon servants, no other monsters appeared in the ice cave.

Not long after.

Lu Cheng reached the deepest part of the ice cave.

After walking around a corner, I immediately smelled the smell of blood in the air.

At the same time, a system prompt sounded.

[Warning: You have stepped into the lurking place of the Ice Cave Demon. The Ice Cave Demon is extremely powerful. Please stay away as soon as possible! 】

Lu Cheng raised his eyes and immediately saw the huge demon hundreds of meters away.

This is a bronze-level demon, five meters long, with solid ice covering its feet, constantly drawing energy from the ground.

…

【Ice Cave Demon】

[Level 25, Bronze BOSS]

[HP: 1.99 million/1.99 million]

[Physical attack:? Magic attack:? 】

[Physical defense:? Magic defense:? 】

[Characteristics: Descendants of Demons,? 】

【Skill:? ? 】

[Status: Sealed, unable to leave the hiding place]

…

Under the true sight, the ice cave demon's panel is revealed.

However, the level gap of nine levels has almost reached the detection limit of True Sight, leaving many data with question marks.

Lu Chenghun didn't care, took out his staff and walked closer step by step.

"Roar……"

On the opposite side, the Ice Cave Demon roared, with a hint of anger in his pupils.

Although it cannot leave its hiding place, it can be felt.

It was this human being who killed all three of its elite servants!

But soon, it calmed down.

"Human, you are very lucky to have met me... How about we make a deal?"

The ice cave demon spoke slowly.

As it spoke, it quietly activated mind control!

The next second, a system prompt sounded in Lu Cheng's mind.

[Ding, soul resistance is triggered, you are immune to the ice cave demon's mind control skills! 】

"Luckily indeed, what kind of deal?"

Lu Cheng responded, approaching step by step.

"What?"

The mind control failed, and the ice cave demon was stunned for a moment.

This human being, who is only over ten levels, can actually resist its control?

Even those black iron bosses who are in their twenties can't do it!

A trace of surprise flashed across its pupils, and it continued to speak.

"I am a pure-blood demon and can transform you into demon blood! By then, you will be thousands of times stronger than you are now!"

As he spoke, the Ice Cave Demon raised his claws, and a black flame danced in his palm.

This is the sign of a pure-blooded devil!

"real?"

Lu Cheng's face lit up with joy. As he walked, he took out a large number of Origin Stone fragments and quickly absorbed them.

He didn't care about the demon blood.

Even if it is really converted into demon blood, it will only add 30 attribute points, and the race will also need to be changed.

But if this is really a pure-blooded demon...

The reward is even higher!

"Of course it's true. Pure-blood demons never bother to lie. The condition for transformation is that you have to bring fifty humans like you..."

The ice cave demon said, his eyes locked on Lu Cheng, observing the distance.

"Human beings are easy to deceive..."

The ice cave demon smiled ferociously in his heart.

As long as this human being gets closer, it can launch a thunder strike, kill it directly, and control it!

As a result, the next moment, a flash of fire reflected in its pupils.

Lu Cheng stood fifty meters away and directly launched the meteor shower!

"Boom boom boom..."

The fire splashed, and in the fierce flames, the flints rolled and burned, and suddenly flew!

"you wanna die!"

The ice cave demon was furious and swung his claws. Suddenly, endless cold air gathered and swept towards Lu Cheng!

This is its strongest single-target skill. It only takes a few seconds to freeze this human into an ice sculpture!

The next second, flint flew down!

"Bang bang bang bang bang!"

-

72353!

-

72006!

-

72518……

With the blessing of source energy, each flint shot can deal more than 70,000 damage!

As soon as the flint stone hit, the ice cave demon lost most of its health in just an instant!

"how come!?"

The ice cave demon was terrified.

It is obviously a pure-blooded demon with an extremely powerful body.

But every flint hit was painful to the heart, as if it was going to tear it apart!

"Ouch..."

The Frost Demon roared, his body swelled, and he broke away from the ice under his feet, trying to escape.

But it was too late. Its target was too big to avoid. In one second, all the remaining flints were hit!

At the same time, the cold air enveloped Lu Cheng, causing his blood volume to drop all the way.

But in just one second, Lu Cheng's blood volume returned to full point.

With the blood-sucking spell of the Lingtai Relic, he can restore more than 7,000 blood points with every flint that falls!

"No……"

The ice cave demon's eyes were full of disbelief, his health bar was emptied, and he fell to the ground.

With a crash, the loot fell to the floor.

next moment.

In Lu Cheng's mind, a system prompt rang.

[Ding, you killed the Bronze Level BOSS: Ice Cave Demon, gained experience value +270,000, source energy limit +8! 】

[You kill the Bronze BOSS of the same level or above alone, and get free attribute points +75! 】
