Chapter 68: Spirit Evolution!
"Next!" Mo Chen yelled after having sent in 5 more people and to everyone's surprise all these five men received treasures.
Hearing Mo Chen's call everyone raised their hand, excited to go in.
Mo Chen chose a person at random, sending him in.
After 2 minutes, this person came out with a dejected expression.
"Did you receive anything?" Mo Chen asked.
The man shook his head with a depressed expression as he said: "It's over, I can't feel my spirit. It was as you said, I sent my spirit in a small room and it was then that I felt the connection breaking. I couldn't feel my spirit!"
Mo Chen acted to console him as he once again turned to the people: "Next!"
In this way, more than 500 people went in. Most of them received treasures and about 100 of them got their spirit devoured.
Some even chose to offer their spirit willingly in exchange for treasure.
Ashen was hidden in the secret room with his giant spirit beside him, devouring the spirits to its liking.
At this moment, one more spirit came inside. It was a small cat with white fur.
2-headed Sky flame Viper's eyes lit up as it opened its mouth wide open before sucking the cat in its mouth, devouring the poor cat whole.
"Nooo!" The cry of pain came from outside, however, Ashen ignored it.
At this moment, His spirit began to glow with white light.
A smile appeared on Ashen's face and his spirit's glow continued to increase as a new head grew on from the side of its previous two heads. This new head was a shade of green in color, It appeared ethereal before materializing fully.
It's tail also grew longer and thicker. It's size became more than twice it's previous 1.8m, now 4m in height.
At this moment the system's notification also appeared, but, Ashen ignored it. He sent his qi to a stone in front as a voice began speaking:
"The cultivators with 2-star spirit cannot enter anymore. Let the 3-star spirit cultivators come in"
This voice was the same voice that the outside cultivators were hearing. The stone in front of him was a sound qi stone, capable of manipulating sound to any pitch.
Soon, a 3-star spirit began to enter from the entrance of this secret room.
Ashen left the decision to eat a spirit or not to his own spirit, only interfering to stop it from eating consecutively.
Slowly, the spirit had eaten a whopping 75 spirits before it suddenly began to glow again.
Ashen knew what was to come as he watched the evolution quietly.
One more head, red in color this time appeared, making the total headcount 4. Its height grew more than twice once again reaching 8m in height.
Its head was touching the cave's top, showing just how ridiculous its height had become.
However, the most surprising this for Ashen was the new legs that had appeared out. His spirit appeared massive in size, weight, and height.
Even dragon scales had appeared on its skin.
Right now, no one would even guess that it was once a small snake.
Its head had also taken a shape similar to a dragon head instead of looking like a snake anymore.
However, Its neck was too long, it appeared as if someone had placed snakes on its body.
[Ding! Host, Congratulations on the evolution of your spirit to 4-star, Four-headed Eerie Destruction Draken]
Ashen smiled in satisfaction before sending his qi back into the sound qi stone.
"Stop! The tomb will close now and no one is allowed to enter!"
The voice once again reverberated as Ashen could hear the displeased noise from the crowd outside, however, he ignored them and focused on his beautiful spirit.
It was Mo Chen's headache to handle them.
He appreciated how magnificent his spirit had become, it was a pity that the wings hadn't appeared otherwise, he would like to take a ride on it.
He willed as the Draken lowered its head in front of Ashen, letting him pet its head.
Ashen called the spirit back into his body before sneaking out of the cave using his skill .
No One noticed him as they were busy shouting in displeasure.
Ashen controlled his formation and,
Boom!
The formation inside the cave exploded, creating a loud sound in the area and crumbling the cave down.
The cave, due to the mighty explosion, got its entrance closed as its roof fell on the ground.
Then, Ashen left for his house nonchalantly.
On his way, he moved while appreciating his move of evolving his spirit:
"It's good that I evolved my spirit, Now my speed to absorb and acquire qi will increase by many-fold and it'll be easy to advance to the core formation realm."
Though, he didn't think much of it, his plan was also quite good.
He had anticipated that the crowd wouldn't be ready to enter the cave first, hence, he instructed Mo Chen to arrange five men who would be fix players.
They were arranged to receive those high-grade treasures. After they left the cave, The treasures were again returned to Mo Chen.
Meanwhile, all the treasures that were used in this plan belonged to Mo Chen and Ashen had already instructed Mo Chen to kill the cultivators who received the treasures.
His men would follow the cultivators with treasures and would kill them at random places before robbing the treasure.
It would just appear that they were killed by greedy cultivators to snatch their treasure. It seemed plausible, right?
And even if someone suspected Mo Chen, where was the proof?
Didn't the cave just get destroyed?
Even if someone investigated, they wouldn't find anything.
As for the cultivators who lost their spirit, they can only blame their luck and the demonic cultivator who didn't exist.
All will think that the demonic cultivator must've used some kind of hidden technique to make a mechanism that can devour spirits.
At this moment, Ashen entered his room,
It was time to see how many villain points he earned through Mo Fan!
