Chapter 1611
A loud and joyful dragon roar reverberated through the plains, and the image of a dragon appeared on the Dragon Soul Spear. Looking ahead, the alien that had been pierced by the spear was shriveling at a speed visible to the naked eye. It was as if all the energy and vitality in his body had been sucked out.
A string of information appeared in Zi Chen's mind.
Devour: Devour the vitality, soul, and energy of all life forms.
Feedback: Feedback the vitality, soul power, and spiritual power of all life forms according to your will. The minimum amount is one percent.
As these two strings of information disappeared, Zi Chen felt a sudden surge of rich energy from the spear. This energy contained vitality, energy, and soul power, and it flowed into Zi Chen's body.
The energy that Zi Chen had expended in the previous attack was instantly replenished.
Feeling the replenishment of energy, Zi Chen was overjoyed. He wanted nothing more than to hug the Dragon Soul Spear and give it a kiss. However, in the next moment, he let out a strange cry and looked at the alien in front of him.
He saw that all the vitality in his body had been sucked out. Even his beating heart had withered and lost all its energy.
Although he had recovered the energy he had expended, he had lost a heart. This price was too great.
Because of the dragon roar and Zi Chen's strange cry, it naturally attracted the attention of the other alien races. A small group of alien races appeared in Zi Chen's line of sight.
The leader was a mid-stage seventh stage cultivator, and the rest were all early-stage seventh stage cultivators. There was a total of eight of them. This small group was preparing to head to a human city. They were attracted by the commotion just now and rushed over.
When they discovered traces of humans, their eyes flashed with savagery as they flew over.
Zi Chen put away his spear and charged towards the eight alien races with his long saber in hand.
After eight consecutive attacks, Zi Chen had expended twenty percent of his energy and obtained eight powerful beating hearts.
After more than a month of killing, Zi Chen had accumulated 943 alien hearts. He originally had 944, but the Dragon Soul Spear had wasted one heart. He was one step closer to summoning the cauldron with 6555 hearts.
After killing the enemy, Zi Chen quickly left. The Dragon Soul Spear had awakened two special effects, but Zi Chen still didn't understand the feedback effect. He needed to understand it more.
After finding a safe place, Zi Chen ate some cold barbecued meat and began to study the Dragon Soul Spear.
Speaking of which, for the sake of roasting meat, Zi Chen was almost killed by the alien races.
Zi Chen understood the Devouring Soul's special effect very well. It was the devouring special effect.
However, in the following feedback, there was actually a feedback based on one's thoughts, and it was at least 6%.
"What does this feedback mean?" Zi Chen murmured.
"It is feedback according to your heart, master." A voice appeared in Zi Chen's sea of consciousness.
"Dragon Soul." Upon hearing this voice, Zi Chen was not surprised but delighted. He could tell that this voice belonged to the Dragon Soul.
"Yes, Master." The dragon soul's voice sounded again.
"You can actually speak? That means you've been recognized by this world," Zi Chen said in surprise.
"Yes, I can manifest a dragon shadow here, but it's only the Devouring Soul technique," the dragon soul explained.
"As for the feedback, it can be done according to my wishes, but it's at least 6%, and at most 65%. The other 45% will be refined and compressed during the devouring process."
Zi Chen understood this point. Whether it was him or the dragon soul, the purity of energy was almost to a strict degree.
This was also the reason why Zi Chen could only recover 85% of his strength while others of the same level could recover 655% of their strength with a single spirit crystal.
"What was the feedback just now?"
"6%."
6% was already a lot of energy, and once the feedback was 65%, it could almost restore 655% of Zi Chen's strength.
However, thinking about it, all the energy of a seventh-tier alien race was only enough to restore Zi Chen's energy once, it was really extravagant.
But it had to be said that the awakening of the Dragon Soul Spear's special effect was very timely. This way, Zi Chen didn't have to worry about not having enough spirit crystals.
Zi Chen's tightly furrowed brows relaxed. He already had a plan in mind, but he suddenly thought of something and asked, "Can the Devouring Soul be controlled? For example, can I keep a complete heart?"
"It's completely controllable, Master." The dragon soul's answer made Zi Chen overjoyed.
This way, Zi Chen didn't have to worry about anything. Just like in the outside world, although he didn't have the Domain Realm now, he had the Dragon Soul Spear in hand, which gave him endless power.
And this way, relying on the Dragon Soul Spear and the Star Illusion Dragon Spike's special effect, even if Zi Chen encountered an eighth-tier alien race, he would have the power to fight.
The battle between the humans and the aliens was still ongoing. Because as long as the humans couldn't reclaim the lost cities, the invading seventh-tier humans wouldn't have any supplies.
Moreover, there were still many humans in the seventh-tier region. Without supplies, they would only die faster.
Regarding this huge loss, the higher-ups in charge of Imperial Sky City would have to pay a certain price for their negligence.
Time passed, and soon, another month had passed. The number of alien hearts Zi Chen had collected had almost reached 455.
And this increase of 955 per month had completely attracted the attention of the aliens. However, no one was able to catch Zi Chen. Success was right in front of him, but Zi Chen was becoming more and more cautious.
…
In the Dax Plains, teams of aliens appeared one after another. They were less than one li away from each other. This way, if there was any danger, both sides could look out for each other.
Zi Chen hid underground and spread out his spiritual senses to observe these two teams.
In order to prevent the human adventurers from attacking them, the aliens had arranged for a late-stage seventh-tier existence to be in each team. Some teams even had eighth-tier experts.
Zi Chen had been waiting in ambush for a long time and had discovered more than 75 teams of aliens. However, he had only found an opportunity to attack once.
This situation had already persisted for three whole days. In other words, Zi Chen had returned empty-handed in the past three days.
The alien who was still checking the increase of his contribution points smiled knowingly. This guy called Zi Chen was finally suppressed.
It had been five days, but his contribution points had not increased.
However, before he could fully smile, he saw that Zi Chen's contribution points were actually increasing again.
"Damn it, what's going on?" An angry roar rang out.
After five days without any gains, Zi Chen could not wait any longer. He might as well go all out.
He shot out from the ground and transformed into a ray of light, flying forward.
A small team of eight foreign beings appeared in front of them. The most powerful being in the team was a late-stage seventh-tier Ascension Stage being. Aside from that, there was another small team of eight that was led by a late-stage seventh-tier foreign being.
The moment Zi Chen appeared, he was discovered by the two teams of aliens. In an instant, killing intent gathered on the plains.
Zi Chen, who was charging forward, was getting closer and closer to the first team. However, the second team was still on the way. He instantly accelerated and rushed towards one of the early-stage seventh-tier aliens.
"Pu."
After killing hundreds of aliens, Zi Chen's control of his strength was perfect. With a slash of his blade, the alien died.
At the same time, Zi Chen moved with extreme speed and dodged several attacks.
"Pu." "Pu."
During this period of time, Zi Chen relied on his uncanny speed to kill another two outsider experts.
After killing the three Outsiders, he was surrounded by thirteen Outsiders. Among them, there were even two Seventh Level Late Stage experts.
"Kill."
With an explosive shout, the thirteen of them charged towards Zi Chen.
Zi Chen's current speed was not enough to dodge all the attacks. Hence, he dodged a few fatal attacks and allowed the others to land on Zi Chen's body.
Immediately, several wounds appeared on Zi Chen's body. Some were so deep that his bones could be seen.
"Swoosh."
At the same time, Zi Chen counterattacked. A strong light flashed and Zi Chen tapped on the body of one of the aliens. At the same time, he transmitted a thought to himself, "8%."
8% was the energy that came from not devouring the heart. Not only could it replenish one's energy, the life force within could also heal Zi Chen's wounds.
The alien's body instantly shriveled. As Zi Chen withdrew his spear, a pure energy entered Zi Chen's body. The small wounds on Zi Chen's body healed at a speed visible to the naked eye. Even the deep wounds stopped bleeding and formed scabs.
Of course, during this process, the battle continued.
Zi Chen, who had just recovered from his injuries, would have several more wounds on his body. However, as long as Zi Chen struck out with his spear, it did not matter if he could kill the enemy. As long as he hit the enemy, he would be able to devour their energy.
Facing such a strange attack from Zi Chen, the aliens were all shocked. However, with so many of them, it was impossible for them to escape.
Thus, one alien after another fell in front of Zi Chen. Many of their bodies were completely shriveled up, leaving only their hearts intact.
Zi Chen's black robe had no less than 85 cuts, all caused by this battle.
However, under the 85 cuts, there were only seven or eight large wounds. There were only a few white scars on the other parts of his body.
Soon, 69 of the team of 61 were killed. Only two of the strongest were left.
Their faces were filled with shock. Not only did this human have a strange weapon, his recovery ability was also astonishing.
"Pu."
The long spear in Zi Chen's hand trembled. Because of the fear of the long spear, the strange being retreated. Zi Chen quickly followed up. This time, he directly pulled out the dragon spike and pierced it into the strange being's heart.
Ignoring defense, killing in one strike.
The last alien saw that the situation was bad and turned to run.
The sharp black saber turned into a ray of black light and stabbed into the back of the alien's heart.
Immediately after, a surge of energy gushed out from the black saber and destroyed the alien's soul.
At this point, the team of 61 was completely wiped out.
Soon, the next wave of aliens would arrive. Zi Chen hurriedly cleaned up the battlefield. After taking away the 61 hearts, the new aliens had already discovered him.
However, Zi Chen did not stay. He sped up and ran, completely disregarding the cost of his escape.
This was because after months of fighting, Zi Chen had finally killed a thousand aliens.
This was also why Zi Chen, who had always been cautious, was now risking his life.
