Hundred-day trial, day seven.
The secret realm of origin, the trial space.
The border between the Embers Desert and the Monster Mountains.
The vast and desolate Gobi Desert is dotted with oases.
The oasis provides a resting place for adventurers, but it is also a dangerous area where monsters gather and live.
There is a large oasis among them, with sparse vegetation growing around the lake.
The remaining ancient buildings by the lake have long been eroded by wind and sand and turned into ruins.
Only a majestic stone sphinx has stood intact by the lake despite the passage of time and the erosion of wind and sand.
The sun is scorching on a summer afternoon.
Alan sat in the shade with his back against the Sphinx.
There was a white cloth spread in front of him.
There are bottles and jars of medicines placed on it.
Alan looked at the potions intently, his movements gentle.
These medicines are genuine treasures!
Before entering the City of Origin, Allen used his own venom glands and bone spurs to absorb many kinds of blood essences.
He never thought that these collections would come in handy!
Mr. Mi Rui, the butler of the Origin Castle , purchases blood essence from all trial participants.
The higher the bloodline and the rarer the species, the higher the price it can be sold for from the butler!
All of Allen's blood essence was sold to the butler, except for a sample that each of them kept.
In exchange for four potions unique to Origin City.
The most expensive one among them is the third-level anti-aging agent!
After the injection, your youthful appearance and longevity will last a full hundred years!
Then there are advanced and high-level heaven-replenishing potions that can be used to improve bloodline qualifications.
The last one is a level 7 “Origin Meditation Awakening Agent”.
Alan has a complete set of "Soul-Calming Meditation" from level 1 to 7.
The origin meditation method is not better than the requiem meditation method.
The reason I spent a lot of money to buy it was mainly for reference.
This will come in handy when Alan develops the 8th-level soul-soothing meditation method in the future.
Allen used his own venom glands to analyze all of the purchased potions and reverse engineered the formulas of the potions.
Allen has stocks of most of the medicinal herbs.
The very few items that are out of stock can also be purchased from the butler.
Buying medicinal materials directly is much cheaper than buying finished medicines!
The price difference is so huge that it is simply shocking!
From one side, it can be seen that the housekeeper Mi Rui is definitely a black-hearted profiteer!
He saw clearly that the trial-taker was incapable of refining the medicine on his own, so he just sat back and made a profit from the price difference, making a lot of money!
Alan has the Taotie system, the recipes, and the medicinal materials, so he will be able to perfectly imitate the medicine in the future.
There is no need to let Mi Rui, the middleman, make a profit from the price difference!
In the distance there were roars of wild beasts and thunder and lightning.
The sandstorm stirred up by magic felt hot on my face.
Alan turned a blind eye to all the signs of danger around him.
This oasis is not peaceful.
The Flash Dog, the Shifter Beast, and the half-human, half-lion Lamia each occupied a piece of territory.
In order to compete for precious prey and water resources, the three major monster races often conflict.
These monsters have all suffered at the hands of Allen, so they would take a detour when they saw him from afar.
Unexpectedly, this guy refused to leave and even brought over a group of beautiful but vicious female sorcerers to madly oppress the local natives!
While Alan was sitting leisurely under the stone statue to enjoy the cool air, Kelly, Renee, Maria and Master Shiva were all fighting monsters and undergoing their own trials.
Kelly's prey is a mutant displacement beast called "Thunder Leopard".
An ordinary shifter beast that looks like a large black panther.
A flexible tentacle extends from each side of the spine.
The terminal end of the tentacles is enlarged and leaf-shaped.
The inside of the fleshy leaves are covered with densely packed barbs.
In addition to these two tentacles used for hunting, the Displacer also has a racial talent.
There is always a hazy halo surrounding its body, making it impossible to see its true location.
It's like maintaining a 3-ring "displacement technique".
There is always a 50% chance that an attack on it will fail.
The name "Translocation Beast" comes from this.
Alan became interested in the Shifter because this magical beast belongs to the cat family.
Alan, Kelly, Renee, Maria and Shiva are all feline lycanthropes.
The blood essence of the displacement beast can strengthen their warlock bloodline!
An ordinary displacement beast, with a bloodline upper limit of only level four, is of little use to Alan and others.
However, there are two mutant species in the displacement beast clan!
One of them is called "Thunder Leopard" whose tentacles can discharge electricity and has awakened electric magic.
The second one is called "Sea Tiger", who lives in the oasis lake. He is amphibious and can use magic to control water and create whirlpools!
The upper limit of the bloodline of these two mutated displacement beasts is at least level five.
It's perfect for Kelly and Renee to merge.
Kelly has a strong personality and is decisive, so she fell in love with Lei Bao.
Renee has a more Buddhist personality and is proficient in water, so she chooses to hunt sea tigers.
Before the hunt, Alan helped his sister and Renee think everything through.
Please ask Master Shiva to bless them with the 5th level of "True Knowledge".
The field of vision is not affected by the displacement illusion, and the true positions of Lei Bao and Hai Hu can be seen clearly.
I also asked Sister Lion for help and gave them both the 4th ring of "free movement".
Immune to paralysis caused by electricity and not bound by vortexes.
Renee also awakened her own "anti-electric barrier" and used it to bless Kelly to ensure that everything would be safe.
After making good preparations, Kelly and Renee each challenged a monster and were sure to win.
On the other side, Sister Lion Maria went to see Mistress Lamia.
The Lamia clan is very strange!
The upper body is a beautiful and sexy girl, and the lower body is mostly a strong lioness.
As you can imagine, Lamia the lion also belongs to the cat family.
But there are a very small number of Lamias whose lower body is not a lion's body, but a python's body!
This is really confusing.
Big cats and pythons are two completely different species and have nothing in common!
How come the Lamia tribe has both lion women and snake women?
Such irrational phenomena, if traced back to their source, are most likely the product of magic.
A legendary sorcerer from ancient times, he was said to have mastered the secret of "the origin of species".
It is possible to forcibly merge two unrelated organisms to create a new species.
For example, the owlbear, a giant bear with an owl's head, is a typical hybrid of magic.
Alan guessed that the two different types of Lamia were probably the product of ancient magic experiments.
What’s even more amazing is that…
The matriarch of the Lamia tribe, she has three transformation forms.
She can transform into a lion woman, snake woman, or human woman at will.
In leonine form, the roar of Mistress Lamia can stun people .
In snake form, Mistress Lamia's gaze has a hypnotic power.
Lion sister Maria, who has reached the early fifth stage of cultivation, has advanced to the "Lion Head Heaven".
Lei Bao and Hai Hu are of little use to her.
The upper limit of Mistress Lamia's bloodline is at least level six, which is enough to arouse her interest.
With Sister Lion's combat power and by casting various protective spells in advance, it is almost certain that she will be able to hunt down Mistress Lamia.
The key to the so-called trial is to accumulate practical experience.
Therefore, Alan did not intend to intervene to help his sisters.
Besides, he had already challenged Lei Bao, Hai Hu and Mistress Lamia.
The three blood essences had already been collected.
The special ingredients that should be eaten have also been digested.
Alan kept a portion of the blood essence of Thunder Leopard, Sea Tiger and Mistress Lamia, and planned to sell the rest to the butler.
As for strengthening one's own bloodline?
Frankly speaking, these three are too weak and he looks down on them.
The Sphinx that Allen was leaning against faintly emitted magical fluctuations.
This stone statue is actually a secret trial ground.
Warlocks above level 6 who touch the statue will be teleported to a mysterious space to play a guessing game.
The person who proposed the puzzle was a sphinx prophet.
How strong is it? Butler Mi Rui refused to reveal.
Alan had wanted to challenge the Sphinx Prophet.
Unfortunately, his cultivation level was not up to standard and he could not enter.
So he told this information to Master Shiva and asked White Tiger Martial Lord to challenge the Sphinx Prophet.
The lion-bodied beast is similar to the Sphinx in the mythology of Alan's previous life.
Since the name contains the word "lion", it must be a feline relative!
The Sphinx Prophet is the wise man and sage of this tribe.
Master Shiva had come into contact with the sphinx tribe in the meditation world.
She revealed to Allen that the Sphinx Prophet had at least the magical power of the late sixth level.
He is also good at a perverted ability called "Riddle Badge"!
The Sphinx Prophet can use the "Riddle Badge" 3 times a day.
Even she herself could not predict the effect of the emblem.
There are ten possibilities in total, corresponding to ten spells.
5th-level "Badge of Pain" and "Badge of Persuasion"
6th-level "Badge of Terror" and "Badge of Sleep"
7th-level "Badge of Weakness" and "Badge of Stun"
8th-ring "Badge of Madness" and "Badge of Death"
9th-level "Petrification Badge" and "Dissociation Badge".
Adventurers who enter the lair of the Sphinx Prophet must sit down and play three guessing games with the hostess.
Predict what kind of magical emblem the Sphinx Prophet will release?
If you guess correctly once, you will be immune to the influence of that magic emblem.
If you guess wrong, you can only rely on your physical body to withstand the magic emblem.
If you guess correctly three times, or if you make it through all three, you can make a request to the Sphinx Prophet.
As long as it is within her ability, she will try her best to satisfy you.
In this guessing game, everyone only has one chance.
In the meditation world, Master Shiva failed to win the guessing game.
Now she wants to make up for this regret, win the guessing game, and ask the sphinx prophet for the blood essence to strengthen her own warlock bloodline.
If you rely solely on luck, the probability of winning the game is too low.
Master Shiva carefully analyzed the ten changes of the magic emblem and took precautions in advance.
Assuming the worst case scenario, if you guess all three puzzles incorrectly, you will have no choice but to bear the magic emblem.
Most magic emblems below level 7 can be resisted by the level 7 "Requiem Meditation".
Master Shiva's own awakened 4-ring "Anti-Death Barrier" can be cast in advance to effectively resist necromancy magic such as "Badge of Weakness" and "Badge of Death".
There are still "Badge of Madness", "Badge of Petrification" and "Badge of Dissociation" left, which are the most difficult to deal with.
Allen learned of the teacher's concerns and specially provided her with a "petrification resistance agent".
The main ingredient of the medicine is his own plasma.
Although it is not possible to be completely immune to the 9th-level "Petrification Badge", it can at least greatly improve resistance.
…
The sphinx behind him no longer emitted magical fluctuations.
At the same time, a beam of teleportation light appeared right in front of the stone statue.
Alan quickly put away the bottles and cans and walked forward.
"Did you win the riddle?"
"My luck was so bad that I didn't guess any of the questions correctly!"
Baihu Wuzun walked out of the teleportation array with a look of fear on his face.
"Thanks to your soothing meditation and petrification resistance agent, I was able to withstand three attacks from the magic emblems. I finally made it through without any danger."
She took out a blood collection bottle from her storage bag and threw it over.
"After winning the game, I asked the Sphinx Prophet for three blood essences. She bargained with me and finally agreed to give me only two!"
"As we agreed beforehand, one of them will be given to you."
Alan took the blood bottle, smiled and shook his head.
"This is not enough, you have to give me some more benefits."
"What do you want?!" Shiva asked angrily, knowing the answer anyway.
"Old rules, kiss the little face."
"Here?" Shiva looked around. "I don't want to be seen... It would be so embarrassing!"
"My sisters won't be back for a while." Allen insisted, "Turn into a little loli and let me kiss you!"
"Stinky kid, so annoying!"
Baihu Wu Zun complained unwillingly, but his body reluctantly changed back to human form.
With a stern face, she walked up to the bad boy, twisted his ears first, and then skillfully snuggled into his arms.
She straddled his lap and found the most comfortable position.
Her cheek was pressed against his chest, and her small hands were around his waist.
Her eyes were slightly closed, like a kitten taking a nap in his arms.
Alan gently lifted her hair and kissed her forehead.
Then move down to kiss the bridge of the nose, ears and cheeks.
The silver-haired loli squirmed softly in his arms, purring like a kitten, her pretty face flushed, and she looked like she was enjoying it.
Alan looked at this lovely face and couldn't help himself for a moment, so he bent down and kissed the small, rosy lips.
The silver-haired loli's body trembled as if she had been electrocuted.
After trying to struggle a few times and realizing that he refused to let go, she reluctantly submitted.
The tender and sweet kiss lasted for an unknown amount of time.
Until the clear sounds of girls' chatting and laughing were heard in the distance.
Alan came back to his senses and reluctantly moved his lips away.
The silver-haired loli opened her eyes, and looked at him blankly with her watery pupils, as if her soul was still wandering in space.
"My sister and the others are back."
Alan whispered in her ear.
The little Loli's face changed slightly and she jumped out of his arms in a hurry.
He changed back into his tiger-man form and distanced himself from Alan.
With his hands behind his back, he looked out at the Gobi Desert as if he was admiring the scenery.
Alan laughed to himself.
He withdrew his gaze, separated half of the blood essence of the Sphinx Prophet, poured it into his own blood collection bottle, and took a sip.
Didi——
"Eat special ingredients: the blood of the sphinx prophet!"
"Potential +4!"
"Spirit +1!"
Current attributes: 51 physique, 38 agility, 58 spirit
Potential reserve: 29 points
…
Alan nodded with satisfaction and was about to return the blood bottle to Master Shiva when he suddenly felt a chill on his legs.
Looking down, I saw a damp mark on the right trouser leg near the thigh, the outline of which was like a small olive leaf.
…
After a day of adventure, everyone returned to the Origin Castle.
Master Shiva, Kelly, Renee and Maria were all very satisfied with today's harvest.
Alan accompanied them for the whole day, and it was as relaxing as an outing.
With no place to release my excess energy, I decided to take a business deal to earn some extra money.
Sister Lion obtained the blood essence of Mistress Lamia. Except for a portion for herself, she sold the rest to the housekeeper Mi Rui.
Sitting at the dining table, he was excitedly counting magic stones.
Alan saw this and was worried that she was spending money lavishly.
He walked over and asked Sister Lion if she wanted to come and play with him in the evening.
Two minutes later.
Maria's wallet hadn't even warmed up yet when she transferred the money to Alan in the form of overnight fees.
That night, Allen went on a date with Sister Lion.
"Junior brother, once I successfully fuse the blood of Mistress Lamia, I will be able to transform into both a lion woman and a snake woman."
Maria lay on Alan's chest, imagining the future.
"Until then... darling, which form of mine would you like to have sex with first?"
"Third sister, you have given me a happy problem!"
Alan fantasized about turning into Maria, a leo woman or a snake woman, and couldn't help but suffer from decision-making difficulties.
"Don't think about it yet, it's better to act!"
Maria sat up from his arms and said excitedly:
"Let's set up a meditation meeting now and enter the ancestral world of Mistress Lamia together!"
Alan nodded happily and was about to spray the spores to assist Sister Lion in her practice when suddenly a magical wave arose beside the bed and a ball of communication light emerged .
In the center of the light ball, a small white tiger head mark was flashing.
Maria held the ball of light and read the letter, then sighed, looking disappointed.
"Teacher Shiva asked me to go to her bedroom!"
"What's the emergency for her in the middle of the night?" Alan asked.
"She can't sleep. Let me sing a lullaby to get her to sleep!"
"Why don't you ask Renee to go? This is her job."
"hehe……"
"What are you laughing at?"
"I said the teacher was deliberately making trouble and trying to torment me. Do you believe me?"
"Why?"
"Jealous!"
"Ah? This..."
"She lives next door. How can she sleep after hearing the noises we made when we were being intimate?"
"You don't want me to have fun in your bed all night, so you're looking for an excuse to act like a demon!"
Maria complained, but she didn't dare to be slow and put on her dress quickly.
"My dear, I'm going to appease your jealous little self. You have to have a good sleep smelling my body fragrance. Don't let other women into the room!"
"Third sister, thank you for your hard work." Alan gave her a goodnight kiss.
Sister Lion smiled and kissed back, then hurried out of the bedroom with a gust of fragrant wind.
Alan closed the door, blew out the light, went to bed, and fell asleep alone.
Half asleep and half awake, I vaguely felt a cool breeze on my face...
The bedroom doors and windows are closed, so how can cold air blow in?
Realizing this problem, Alan suddenly lost all desire to sleep!
He suddenly stood up and sat up from the bed!
The bedroom doors and windows were still tightly closed, leaving no gaps at all.
The cold wind just now...was it just an illusion?
The pale moonlight shines into the bedroom through the window.
Alan accidentally saw a black shadow standing against the wall!
There was no one else in the bedroom except himself.
But the dark shadow was flat against the wall...
It was as if someone was standing in front of the bed in the moonlight, casting a silhouette on the wall.
Alan's heart, which had just been put at ease, rose to his throat again, and cold sweat instantly ran down his back.
There was a dark shadow on the wall, and the face was blurry.
With the shadow outline, it is not difficult to see the soft curves of women.
A thought popped into my mind!
"Female ghost?!"
Alan couldn't help but blurt out.
"snort!"
Suddenly, an unhappy hum was heard in my mind.
"Friend, do you really not recognize me, or are you just pretending to be stupid?"
Telepathic communication, the voice is feminine and familiar.
Alan thought about it for a moment and remembered.
Seven days ago, when he first entered Origin City, he received a telepathic message from this man.
She left a message at the time, asking to contact again when the time was right.
The dark shadow that looked like a ghost seemed to be observing the changes in Alan's expression.
"It seems that you really can't remember."
She sighed with a hint of disappointment.
"Just a reminder, my code name is 'Feng Yue', which comes from the Holy Spirit Society."
Fengyue...Holy Spirit Society...?
Alan had no impression.
"Alas... As a holy spirit from outer space, something went wrong when merging with the host's soul. I lost my memory and became confused. How pathetic!"
"My poor friend, you have lost yourself, living in the world as a host, forgetting your mission. What is the difference between you and those warlocks who have regressed and become possessed by evil?"
Fengyue's ridicule could not hurt Alan's self-esteem.
Instead, the details she inadvertently revealed were thrilling!
"Fusion of host soul"... Could it be that the time traveler is possessing the host? !
Alan couldn't help but worry that his biggest secret had been exposed!
"I'm sorry, I really don't understand what you are talking about."
Alan pretended to be calm, quietly gathering magic power in his palms.
"Haha! You'd better not move!"
Feng Yue sneered and raised his hand.
Alan suddenly felt his body stiffen!
The magic power that had just been gathered was dispersed by a mysterious force.
"This is just a small warning to you." Feng Yue said coldly, "If you dare to mess around again, don't blame me for being ruthless!"
Alan knew in his heart that this mysterious woman was much stronger than himself.
To resist by force is tantamount to suicide.
"Ma'am, from what you're saying, I've lost my original memory?"
"That's right! Allen Panthers is only your host in the Warlock World. His true identity is the Holy Spirit that descended here according to God's will."
Feng Yue explained patiently.
"I don't know what your original number is, but I have a special method that can identify whether a person's soul and body are original."
"You hid it well, but you still couldn't hide it from my eyes!"
"Unfortunately, when your Holy Spirit merged with the host's soul, a rejection reaction occurred, causing you to lose your original memory and forget why you came to this world!"
"If you hadn't given me this living example, I would have thought this kind of accident was just a legend."
After hearing what she said, Alan felt a little relieved.
Fengyue saw that he was a wandering soul from outside who had taken over the body of the original owner, which was very powerful.
However, her subsequent imagination was completely different from the facts.
"Ms. Fengyue, even if I am a ghost with amnesia, it doesn't mean that I am in the same group with you."
"How can you be sure that I am some kind of holy spirit from outer space, and not just an ordinary wandering ghost?"
"Idiot! If you were an ordinary ghost, and you possessed a body, the host would definitely be filled with negative energy!"
Feng Yue retorted unhappily.
"There's no need to use the Holy Spirit Society's special identification methods. Just use a random 'Detect Undead' to find out the flaws!"
"For example, I look like a female ghost, but do you sense any spooky negative energy from me?"
"No..." Alan told the truth.
"Same to you! The concentration of negative energy is not higher than normal. How can it be a dead spirit possession?"
"If you still don't believe it, we can do a test."
As she spoke, she raised her shadowy hand, and holy light surged from her fingertips.
