After collecting all the corpses of the Hallucinatory Man-eating Flower on the ground, Liu Yan came to the cleared space.
In the center where crowded Hallucinatory Man-eating Flowers had been, there was a stone.
The stone was only the size of a fist and looked somewhat transparent. There was some golden liquid flowing irregularly.
It was clearly a stone, but it looked a little eerie. It was as if it was alive like it was not a stone but a living object. It was truly magical.
"What is this?"
Liu Yan could not help but feel somewhat puzzled. Let alone seeing such a treasure before, he had never even heard of it.
The Withered Tree Spirit King exclaimed, "To think it's a spiritual origin stone! It seems to be of a very high grade. You've struck it rich!"
Spiritual origin stone?
Liu Yan was quite lost when he heard that. He checked the attributes panel of the spiritual origin stone.
[Spiritual Origin Stone]
[Description: An item condensed from the spirit energy of ancient creatures after their deaths. The original owner's life force is no longer existent, but more than half of their mental power is retained.]
[Grade: SS]
[Effect: Can continuously strengthen the spirit energy of surrounding creatures. Rumor has it that it has some mysterious effects, but the specifics are unknown!]
Liu Yan finally understood what the item was after reading the attributes panel of the spiritual origin stone.
According to its description, in simple terms, some powerful ancient creatures had extremely powerful spirit energy. Therefore, after they died, even though their bodies were dead, their spirit energy was too powerful and did not disperse. Instead, it was preserved through this special method.
To put it bluntly, these spiritual origin stones were condensed from the spirit energy of ancient experts. They did not have the consciousness of the original owner but were only pure spirit energy.
The effect of the spiritual origin stone was simple and powerful. It could continuously strengthen the spirit energy of the surrounding creatures.It was no wonder that so many Hallucinatory Man-eating Flowers could grow. It turned out that they relied on the spiritual origin stone to strengthen their spirit energy.
It was also because of this that almost all the Hallucinatory Man-eating Flowers had extremely strong spirit energy and extremely weak physical strength.
In fact, that was their true power. Their spirit energy had only been quickly improved through the shortcut of the spiritual origin stone.
As for how to use the spiritual origin stone, Liu Yan was in a dilemma for a moment.
He had two choices.
The first was the simplest. He would bring the spiritual origin stone back and place it in the Origin Territory. With this, he could use the effect of the spiritual origin stone to continuously strengthen the spirit energy of the members in the Origin Territory.
This was undoubtedly a good thing. It would be a major improvement for the Origin Territory.
The spiritual attribute might be rare on the lower floors of the tower and did not seem practical, but Liu Yan knew that the higher one went, the more important the spiritual attribute became.
Yet, it was extremely difficult to increase one's spirit energy.
But now, Liu Yan could choose to use this SS-grade treasure, the spiritual origin stone, to help a large number of members of the Origin Territory increase their spirit energy without paying any price.
Apart from the first use, there was another use. He could just use Divine Extraction on the SS-grade spiritual origin stone.
This way, he was guaranteed to obtain a decent improvement. The downside was that the members of the Origin Territory would not be able to enjoy its effects.
Liu Yan couldn't help but hesitate. On one side was steady happiness. He would be able to steadily help a large number of members in the Origin Territory increase their spirit energy.
On the other side, it was a high-risk, high-return situation.
After all, he did not know what kind of surprises and benefits he would receive after he performed Divine Extraction on the spiritual origin stone.
Liu Yan couldn't help but hesitate.
When the Withered Tree Spirit King saw this, it told Liu Yan that the spiritual origin stone could increase the upper limit of each creature's spirit energy, though the effects depended on its grade.
When Liu Yan heard this, he understood.
If the spiritual origin stone could infinitely increase the spirit energy of the surrounding creatures, it would be invincible.
Take the Hallucinatory Man-eating Flowers for example. After a batch of Hallucinatory Man-eating Flowers was upgraded, their place would be replaced by other Hallucinatory Man-eating Flowers to undergo the upgrade.
If there was no upper limit, batches of Hallucinatory Man-eating Flowers could be improved to an extremely powerful grade. At that point, the Hallucinatory Man-eating Flowers would be completely invincible.
After learning that there was a certain limit on the spirit-energy-improving effect the spiritual origin stone had on every living being, Liu Yan no longer hesitated. He decided on a method to use the spiritual origin stone.
He would first use this spiritual origin stone to help all the members of the Origin Territory increase their spirit energy.
The spiritual attribute was extremely important. Helped all the members of the Origin team increase their spirit energy might not show an obvious short-term effect, but the long-term effect was extremely huge.
After the spirit energy of all the members of the Origin team had almost been increased to the limit, he would then perform Divine Extraction on the SS-grade spiritual origin stone and use it to increase his strength greatly.
Immediately, Liu Yan put away the SS-grade spiritual origin stone.
Any piece of spiritual origin stone was extremely precious. Rather, treasures that involved spirit energy were extremely precious existences.
On top of that, this piece of spiritual origin stone was SS-grade, which was a very high grade. It must have been from an extremely powerful expert who was at the peak even in ancient times. Only the spirit energy that did not dissipate after the other party's death could form such a powerful spiritual origin stone.action
As Liu Yan put away the SS-grade spiritual ore, this small world gradually became mediocre.
Without the SS-grade spiritual origin stone, this place was just an ordinary area. The Hallucinatory Man-eating Flowers could no longer continue to produce large numbers of powerful Hallucinatory Man-eating Flowers.
The Hallucinatory Man-eating Flowers had just lost their leader and were in a mess. Now, they had lost the SS-grade spiritual origin stone that they relied on to be powerful.
Even though the number of remaining Hallucinatory Man-eating Flowers was still extremely large and their strength was also not bad, their decline was destined. It was only a matter of time.
The huge and terrifying group of Hallucinatory Man-eating Flowers were destined to be destroyed after just a few days of battle with Liu Yan.
Even Liu Yan himself did not expect that his action of venturing deep into the Hallucinatory Man-eating Flowers' habitat would have such a huge impact.
However, this was a good thing for Liu Yan, the Origin Territory, and the Withered Tree Spirits.
Since his matters here were over, there was no need for Liu Yan to stay here any longer.
At this point, he had already found the Hallucinatory Demonic Orchid, taken care of the Hallucinatory Man-eating Flowers' leader, and taken away the treasure that the Hallucinatory Man-eating Flowers relied on for survival.
Liu Yan could be said to have reaped a bountiful harvest on this trip!
Looking at the sky, it was already getting dark. Liu Yan did not act rashly.
After leaving the Hallucinatory Man-eating Flower's habitat and finding somewhere quieter, Liu Yan found a towering tree to rest.
To be precise, he planned to raise his strength properly. After he was done, he would leave this place and return to the Origin Territory!
