Chapter 486 - The Sanction Came Quick (Part 2)
That same day, under Lu Ran’s urging, the Divine Deer and Squirrel God were once again forced into labor. This hunt was much simpler.
On a volcano, Qiongqi, with its power sealed by Squirrel God, was instantly annihilated by Six-Path Flower’s Hell Domain that was amplified by virtuous power. As an extremely malevolent beast, Qiongqi was completely countered by Six-Path Flower’s abilities, making this the easiest hunt yet.
The Fire and Undead-attributed malignant god Qiongqi, like the Nine-Tailed Fox, dropped a Legendary-grade resource.
[Name: Sinflame Heart]
[Description: A Legendary-grade resource. A heart burning with the flames of sin, containing the purest malevolent power. Any creature that consumes it, no matter how strong-willed, will transform into a demon driven by vicious instincts.]
Clearly, this was a toxic Legendary resource. Not all Legendary resources were gentle power-ups, as most were volatile. Resources like the Wind God’s Heart dropped by the Wind Dog God were rare exceptions, likely prepared by Limitless City specifically for participants. Handing out berserk Legendary resources would make it nearly impossible for beastmasters to utilize them safely.
This Sinflame Heart was the type that would kill any normal creature that ingested it, if they were lucky enough to survive at all. Moreover, Qiongqi’s entire body was filled with similar resources. Its soul brimmed with malice, and its flesh radiated mind-corrupting toxins.
Fortunately for Lu Ran, Qiongqi had the misfortune of encountering Six-Path Flower. To it, even its most poisonous parts were treasures. After refining Qiongqi’s entire body in the Hell Path, Six-Path Flower’s malevolent power would be more than enough to sustain extravagant expenditures during the World War. Six-Path Flower’s resource needs were now settled.
After hunting Qiongqi, Lu Ran’s team turned their attention to Taotie. This glutton was also relatively easy to handle, especially with Six-Path Flower controlling the Zhu Yan puppet. Unsurprisingly, Taotie dropped a valuable resource.
[Name: Taotie’s Stomach]
[Description: A Legendary-grade resource. After consumption, the user is inflicted with a period of ravenous hunger that could only be alleviated with excessive eating. Insufficient nutritional intake can lead to death.
[However, during this period, the user’s digestion and nutrient conversion abilities reach Legendary grade, allowing even Legendary resources to be perfectly metabolized. Surviving the ravenous phase grants Legendary-grade attribute boosts based on what was consumed.]
