The Mysterious World Under Steampunk

"Time replacement!" Although Leo had already inferred some laws and conditions inside the shadow world from various collected materials before entering this shadow world, but such special laws as time replacement occurred in his own His body still made him feel a little unbelievable. For this reason, he immediately used the psionic wings to fly into the air to observe the changes in the surrounding landforms. At the same time, he was also checking the situation on his body, especially the meteorite fragment that had disappeared in his hands before. .

Leo was sure that when he picked up the fragment of the meteorite, he had bound it with spiritual energy, and the spiritual energy had penetrated into it to check its internal composition, but even so, when the entire shadow world had a new round When the time displacement of the human body is running, not only can he not stop this displacement process, he can't even perceive some of the details.

Moreover, Leo also discovered that the time replacement does not replace all the objects in the shadow world as he thought, at least the creatures in the shadow world will not be replaced, whether it is a living creature or a dead creature corpse, it will be replaced. After the time displacement changes the surrounding terrain, it still stays in place, just like Leo is now.

At this moment, Leo also discovered that there were so many shadow creatures hidden in the valley boundary that he thought had no other life. Looking around, there were all kinds of shadow creatures densely entrenched on the ground under his feet.

These shadow creatures don't seem to be used to the change of terrain after the time replacement. When they suddenly found themselves in a strange place, they became extremely panicked and fearful. In addition, many of the other shadow creatures around seemed to be The hunter, fleeing for a while, hunting and killing has become the theme of what is happening below.

Different from the great melee that is happening on the ground below, among the large number of animal-like shadow creatures, there are some shadow creatures that not only have wisdom, but also have extremely strong power. The powerful forces cooperate with each other to strangle the surrounding shadow creatures, and some weak shadow creatures are also gathered together by them, not only providing them with shelter, but also using them as minions.

Soon, the densely packed shadow creatures on the ground under Leo's feet were wiped out, only a dozen or so groups of shadow creatures were still facing each other, but they didn't attack each other, they just collected the corpses of dead shadow creatures around them, and then each Leaving in a different direction, leaving only a land that has been soaked with the blood of shadow creatures and emits a bad smell.

Although those powerful shadow creatures seemed to be concentrating on solving the prey around them, controlling the condensed minions, they didn't look up at Leo from the beginning to the end, as if they didn't know that there was a powerful outsider in the sky, but However, Leo could feel that these shadow creatures should know that he exists, and these shadow creatures can also feel his strength, so they will stay away from this land as soon as the battle is over. It can be seen that those with powerful The shadow creatures of strength also possess no low intelligence.

However, Leo is not particularly concerned about how powerful and intelligent those shadow creatures are, he is more concerned about what role these shadow creatures play in the law of time replacement.

In the process of time replacement, not all shadow creatures will not be replaced. Among the remaining shadow creatures, animal shadow creatures account for the vast majority, followed by plant and insect shadow creatures , as for the mist-like shadow creatures, there isn't one.

After scanning the spirit network, Leo found that no matter what kind of shadow creatures have a shadow power, the difference between them is only the strength of the shadow power. Generally speaking, the shadow power of plants and insects The power of shadows is much stronger than the same animal shadow creatures, so it can be seen that the power of shadows is one of the basic elements that these shadow creatures will not be affected by the law of time replacement.

Although the life-and-death drama was over, Leo did not leave immediately. He raised his hand and grabbed the void on the ground. The blood of those shadow creatures were all automatically separated from the land, turned into blood beads and flew towards Leo, and in the process of flying, the blood beads were still being refined and transformed, condensing into a bigger The blood crystals collected from the gravel were finally all gathered in Leo's hands, and merged with each other to form a blood gem with a perfect cut surface, containing powerful shadow power and the blood of shadow creatures.

Leo looked at the dark red blood gem in front of him, and couldn't help saying to himself: "If Lawrence sees that his blood witchcraft combined with the power of devouring can produce such a powerful effect, I don't know what it will be like." An expression."

Just now, it was a method of using the power of devouring that Leo came up on a whim, and most of this method was performed according to the blood refining method created by the blood wizard Lawrence, and the result was that the refined was not only There is only blood, and it is directly in place in one step, and a blood gem belonging to a shadow creature is extracted.

Although the production process of this blood gemstone is a bit rough, if some alchemy techniques can be used to remove its impurities, a more perfect blood gem should be obtained, but the core effect of the blood gem itself will not be affected by the production process. According to Leo's speculation, it is only necessary to implant this blood gem into the recipient's spine in the same way as the implant, then the recipient will be imperceptibly removed by the blood gem. Bloodlines began to transform into shadow creatures.

However, this process is not safe and full of uncertain factors. These factors will cause some mutations that Leo can't predict. After all, the creatures in the shadow world and the creatures in the real world are all different in terms of physiological structure and bloodline genes. They are completely different species, and it can even be said that their souls are all different, so whether this blood gem can create an artificial shadow creature, Leo is not at all sure.

Fortunately, the purpose of Leo's blood witchcraft combined with the power of devouring was not to collect a blood gem and create a shadow creature. He just wanted to simply test his higher-level use of the power of devouring, just like not long ago Using the power of devouring to create a very hungry field is the same.

Although the time replacement changed the surrounding terrain, the positions of Devina and Dryad Rutaxi did not change accordingly. Leo began to move towards the previously perceived direction, but before moving, He memorized the topography of the land below for a while, and planned to find out where the topography matches the Middle Kingdom area after returning to the real world, so as to determine the location of the meteorite impact in the future.

After memorizing the surrounding landforms with distinguishing characteristics, Leo slightly shook his psionic wings, followed the whole person in a sound explosion that broke through the sound barrier, and turned into a high-speed moving phantom, moving towards Devina. The direction of the spiritual imprint in the body flew quickly.

Because of Stone Throne's analysis of psychic power, Leo's understanding and mastery of psychic power has reached a height that he has never thought of before. Although this will not directly improve Leo's psychic power level, it will allow him When using known psionic skills, you can obtain greater effects and consume less psionic energy.

In the past, the psionic wings he used could only use the changes in the natural wind direction and energy flow to glide in the air. If necessary, he could use skills such as psionic impact to increase propulsion, allowing him to fly in a normal way, but now he no longer needs it. Borrowing any external force, just relying on the psionic wings, he can fly in the air at supersonic speed or even higher speed, and this is only inside the world. If he is in the cosmic void or subspace, he can even use The psionic wing uses some strategic skills, such as turning the psionic wing into a huge energy conversion board, allowing itself to have endless energy output capabilities, and to fly across star regions as long as the body can bear it.

You must know that a psychic can use psychic skills to move across star areas alone without the help of an interstellar spaceship, which can be said to be a sign of a ninth-level psychic. There is still a long way to go for a ninth-level psychic, but in terms of control over psychic power, he is not weaker than a ninth-level psychic, and even some high-level omega-level life forms may not be able to compare with it, after all In the universe, many omega-level advanced life forms are naturally evolved because of their own talent, and they are not necessarily good at controlling their own power.

The supersonic flight allowed Leo to reach the sky above the dryad Lutaxi and Devina in just a few minutes. At this moment, they were resting by a small lake, surrounded by the corpses of some shadow creatures. It seems that they should have encountered some danger, but it didn't cause them any trouble.

Leo's fast-flying body directly stayed in the sky above the dryad and Devina's heads, and the accompanying sonic boom sounded like thunder from far to near, and soon passed over. At the same time, due to the supersonic flight, A gust of turbulent current also blew over like a hurricane, directly shaking the trees in the forest below.

At this time, the dryad Lutaxi and Devina also heard the sound of the sonic boom. They couldn't help but cover their ears, looked up to see what happened, and finally saw Leo floating in the sky.

They were able to see Leo clearly not because of their good eyesight, but because Leo's image was so eye-catching at the moment. The huge psionic wings shone on his back, illuminating the surrounding sky. People who see it can't help but have an inexplicable sense of sacredness.

In the eyes of the two people below who were full of surprise and shock, Leo put away the psionic wings behind him, and the whole person fell straight to the side of the two, then looked at the surrounding situation, and asked as a routine : "Are you all right?"

"It's okay." The dryad Lutaxi adjusted his mentality and replied, "It's just that the landing point when entering the shadow was not very good. It happened to be near the lair of a shadow creature. The power of shadow on Devina attracted the people in the lair Shadow creatures, fortunately these shadow creatures are not very strong, otherwise it will be troublesome."

"Sorry, it's all my fault." Devina looked at her friend with a bit of self-blame.

Dryad Lutaxi quickly comforted: "It's okay, anyway, this kind of thing might happen to me even without you. The situation in the shadow is chaos and disorder, and not all previous experience can be used."

Leo listened to the conversation between the two, but other thoughts emerged in his mind, and he immediately confirmed: "Did you have a time displacement caused by the law of the shadow realm just now?"

The dryad Lutaxi and Dewenna looked at each other when they heard the words, and they both saw the bewilderment on each other's faces, and shook their heads almost in unison, saying, "No! Nothing happened."

Hearing the conversation between the two, Leo's face immediately became serious, because he knew very well that if the time replacement was really caused by the law of the shadow world, then the replacement object would be the entire shadow world, except for a few who have special methods to convert time, Except for the place where the space is fixed, all other places will be replaced.

And now the lake where the dryad Lutaxi and Devina are located is obviously not a special place with fixed time and space, so the time displacement that happened not long ago in the crater became very suspicious, very Perhaps that time displacement was not a law naturally caused by the shadow world, but a time displacement in a small area intentionally created by a powerful mysterious existence using the law of the shadow world.

"Why did he do this?" Being able to directly use the power of the law of the shadow world shows that this mysterious existence can almost be said to be the god of the shadow world, and why would such a powerful existence do such a thing against him? This is what Leo doesn't understand.

At first, Leo thought that the other party might be the mysterious powerhouse in the shadow world who implanted a shadow heart in Devena's body and tried to abduct Devena in the cracked space before, but soon he changed his mind and thought again, and denied it. I made up this speculation, because if it is really the mysterious strong man, this kind of time replacement law should not be used against him at all. After all, this method cannot cause any harm to him. Instead, it is better to directly attack Devina. It is simpler and more effective. After all, since the opponent can determine his location and time-replace the area he is in, then the opponent should also be able to know Devina's current location.

But the result now is that there is nothing wrong with Devina, she just strayed into a shadow creature's lair, which triggered some battles, but he made such a big move, which made Leo have to doubt That time shift was actually aimed at him.

Leo thought about his situation at that time seriously, and soon thought of the meteorite fragment that was the suspicious target. Although he didn't know the function of the meteorite fragment for the time being, since those foggy shadow creatures did not hesitate to open up for it, Killing ring, it can be deduced that the meteorite fragment is not as simple as he thought before.
