Chapter 298: Mutated Soul Body



Song Jian followed the old man, heading towards the end of the Shadow District.

Along the way, virtually all the NPCs in the houses began to whisper amongst themselves. Some even peeked out from the gaps of their doors.

“Another one…”

“…So powerful, maybe he can…”

“He’s our…, hopefully he can…”

Whispers drifted into Song Jian’s ears. He couldn’t make out what they were discussing, but clearly, it revolved around the task he had accepted.

“Cough cough-” The old man suddenly coughed, glancing towards the houses on either side. His previously murky eyes now held a hint of sharpness, silencing the whispers around them as silence was restored.

“Warrior, this way, the library is just ahead!” The old man looked frail, as if he might collapse at any moment.

Song Jian nodded, becoming a little more cautious.

“It seems this hidden task of cleaning the library is not as simple as I thought…” Song Jian privately mused.

Soon, led by the old man, Song Jian arrived in front of a dilapidated building.

The building looked like a three-story country house, with much of the exterior paint already corroded and stripped off, revealing the blue bricks underneath. The surroundings were littered with rubbish and fallen leaves. It didn’t seem anyone had cleaned up in a long time.

“Nobody has approached this place for a long time since demons have occupied it…” the old man sighed, “Warrior, the demons are in the library. You must kill them all and restore the peace here!”

Song Jian nodded, not saying a word as he headed straight towards the library.

The old man, leaning on his cane, stood by the door, his eyes following Song

Jian until he disappeared inside the library.

At that moment, a beam of slanted sunlight cast a shadow. The old man’s shadow became distorted, appearing much taller and covered with sharp spines, even two curved horns appeared on his head.

Quickly, the sunlight shifted, and the old man’s shadow gradually disappeared, as though what just occurred was only an illusion.

Song Jian entered the library alone. He looked around at the dust-covered tables and books, the thick layer of dust on the shelves indicating they had been untouched for decades. Instead of a library, it resembled a haunted house.

Just then, a translucent Soul Body appeared from the corridor next to the bookshelf. On seeing Song Jian, it roared, “Blasphemer, all you invaders will die!”

The semi-transparent Soul Body wore heavy plate armor and held a double-handed sword, much like a knight from the medieval times.

-LV15 Mutated Soul Body (Normal), Vitality Points: 1900/1900, Spirit Points: 500/500, Traits: Ethereal Body, Skills: Slash, Leap Slash, Holy Light Slash” “Ethereal Body?” Song Jian frowned. This name reminded him of a Soul Body monster he encountered before, except that monster’s ability was called “Void”. Looking at the status bar, indeed, the Ethereal Body trait offered a 60% reduction in physical damage.

Physical attacks likely wouldn’t be of much use against this monster. If Song Jian were a mage, hunting this monster would undoubtedly be exciting. Regardless, Song Jian wasn’t out of options. He pulled out a bottle of Fire Lizard Medicine and applied it.

Instantly, a flicker of burning flame appeared on his Crimson Fire Heart Ape Sword.

The Fire Lizard Medicine imbued the attack with fire property. Coupled with Song Jian’s Invisible Sword Qi, dealing with this kind of Soul Body monster was quite simple.

Spiritual Sword Control Technique!

An invisible long sword materialized above Song Jian’s head. As he swung his Crimson Fire Heart Ape Sword, the invisible sword also swooped towards the Mutated Soul Body.

Swish swish swish-

A series of damages exceeding 200 points floated above the Mutated Soul Body’s head. The Spirit Sword damage was incredibly high, and almost every strike resulted in double critical hit damage. The Mutated Soul Body couldn’t even close the distance to Song Jian, passively absorbing the endless pain the Spirit Sword awarded.

Boom!

As the three-second mark hit, Song Jian made the Spirit Sword explode, inflicting over 300 points of vitality point damage to the Mutated Soul Body yet again.

Just one skill brought the Mutated Soul Body’s vitality points to below one thousand.

“This is even easier than the zombie assassins!” Song Jian brandished the blazing long sword, applying other sword skills as he dashed towards the Mutated Soul Body.

The Mutated Soul Body wailed continuously. It didn’t even manage to use any skills before Song Jian exterminated it.

A heavy sigh sounded as the Mutated Soul Body clasped its hands together. The armor across its body fell off piece by piece. The double-handed sword also disappeared. Finally, only a simple cloth robe remained. A beam of white light descended from above the deceased Mutated Soul Body’s head, sucking it into mid-air, where it vanished. All that remained was a gray orb burning with a white flame.

“Mutated Soul Seed (White): Consumable, increases Holy damage by 30 points, lasts 30 seconds. The effect can be stacked up to 100 times.”

Song Jian collected the Mutated Soul Seed. Although it was engulfed in a white flame, it didn’t feel hot at all. This item would be most effective against specific monsters. After a glance, Song Jian stowed it in his inventory.

Song Jian began roaming the library, hunting all the monsters inside. “Do Soul Bodies also count as demons? And these Soul Bodies seem no different from humans, so they shouldn’t be demons. Then where are the demons the old man from the district mentioned?” Song Jian mused, becoming more curious about this hidden task he was given.

Soon, a Mutated Soul Body rushed towards Song Jian from behind a row of bookshelves. They began to fight. In less than three minutes, Song Jian killed the monster.

The Experience Points gained were handsome, and the Mutated Soul Body dropped another Mutated Soul Seed. Song Jian paid it no mind, picked it and stashed it in his inventory.

In this manner, Song Jian began searching the first floor of the small building. In just over half an hour, he had searched the entire first-floor library and killed over thirty Mutated Soul Bodies. His Experience Points were at 93% at level 14.

Moreover, oddly enough, besides the Soul Seed, these Mutated Soul Bodies had no other loot. All of them dropped a Soul Seed, and these Soul Seeds could be stacked. At this point, Song Jian had amassed thirty-nine Mutated Soul Seeds in his inventory.

After combing through the first floor, as Song Jian approached the stairs to the second floor, he spotted a book emitting a faint white glow on a tilted bookshelf.

“What’s this? It seems like something I can pickup…” Song Jian couldn’t resist walking toward the book.
