Chapter 14 Flame Slime

After the wolf pack, Amon and his companions were attacked by soul beasts again and were forced to extend their rest time. When they arrived at their destination, it was already evening.

The sun was setting in the west, and the last light of the day shone on the clouds, revealing a golden and red color. The sky away from the sun gradually changed from light blue to dark blue, becoming deep and ethereal.

The lake on the top of the mountain was very calm. Looking from a high place, the lake seemed very deep. Under the wide water surface, there seemed to be a huge shadow lurking, which could seduce people's fear of the unknown.

"Wow... so beautiful." Yan Jin stood on a stone, looking at the scene in front of him, with a genuine smile on his face.

Carrying the pressure of a family's life, her heartstrings were always tense. It was rare for her to relax. At this moment, she felt that her body and mind had been purified.

Glenn looked at the junction of the lake and the land, and he saw a few small black dots moving slowly in the distance.

"Found it, over there."

Looking in the direction of his finger, Amon saw the slime tribe.

Not far behind the slime group, an orange light spot followed not far away. That was their target of this trip - the flame slime.

Because the flame slime has different properties from other slimes, it is excluded and isolated. It can only live on the periphery of the tribe and looks lonely.

"It feels so pitiful." Yan Jin's tone was a little gentle.

After a pause, she continued: "So let's help it get rid of it."

Glenn, who was about to advise her that it was not a good thing to be overly compassionate, swallowed his words back.

You have no compassion at all!

"Tsk... This is just convenient for us to hunt."

The approach of the three people aroused the vigilance of the slime group, and they jumped back.

After realizing that their target was an alien in the tribe, they did not choose to help, but accelerated their escape, leaving only the flame slime surrounded in the middle.

It suddenly swelled up, from the original size of a basketball to as huge as a water tank, making a "grunting" sound like a boiling kettle.

The color also changed from the original orange-yellow to fiery red, and a group of flames appeared on the top of the body.

It opened its mouth and sprayed out a huge column of fire.

Yan Jin dodged it in a somewhat embarrassed manner.

Amon looked at the attack range of the fire column, his eyes slightly condensed.

The age of the slime cannot be judged by physical manifestations, but it can be judged by the killing distance of the water column they spray. The distance of ten to one hundred years is five to ten meters, one hundred to five hundred years is ten to fifteen meters, and five hundred to one thousand years is fifteen to thirty meters.

This is the age judgment standard of ordinary slimes. This is just a flame mutant, and Amon cannot be sure whether it adapts to this rule.

He thinks the probability is consistent. Slimes often mutate only in attributes.

The fire column just now sprayed more than twenty meters. According to the above rules, it is close to a thousand-year soul beast!

This obviously far exceeds the absorption limit of Yan Jin's first soul ring.

Amon came to Yan Jin and put his hand on her shoulder. A time worm quietly merged into Yan Jin's body.

"Ah, this..." Yan Jin realized that a foreign object had suddenly merged into her martial soul, and was about to expel it when Amon's voice sounded in her mind.

"Don't resist, this is my martial soul."

"Amon?" She was about to turn her head.

"Don't look back, don't show any strangeness." Amon stopped her, "I am communicating with you through the martial soul now, you just need to silently recite what you want to say in your heart.

"Listen carefully to me, the age of this slime has exceeded your limit, it is probably eight or nine hundred years old.

"Under normal circumstances, the second soul ring of a soul master cannot absorb such a high age, but I have a way for you to absorb it.

"But I haven't tried it before, there is a certain failure rate.

"Think about it yourself, do you want to gamble."

Yan Jin was very surprised. She had never heard of anyone who could help others absorb a higher-year soul ring before, even the people in the tavern would not brag like this!

Well... they would only brag more outrageously, such as the innate soul power of level 20, such as the soul ring personally bestowed by the gods...

"What method?" She asked curiously.

Amon's voice rang in her heart, "My martial soul can be integrated into his body or martial soul without resistance.

"Soul masters cannot absorb soul rings that are too old because their bodies cannot withstand such a huge amount of energy.

"My martial soul can help you share some of the energy, but there is a certain limit, and it cannot exceed too much. I don't know where this limit is."

"Integrate into the body or martial soul" is actually the use of the "parasitic" ability of the Time Worm, but because it is still too weak now, "parasitism" must obtain the consent of the other party, otherwise it will be easily expelled.

When Amon made the suggestion, he did not choose to conceal it, and told Yan Jin the unfavorable conditions in detail, which could subtly make her trust herself more.

He was not worried that Yan Jin would choose not to gamble, and the reality would not allow her to retreat.

After a little thought, Yan Jin agreed: "Okay, let's do it."

"Hmm? This is a matter of life and death, don't think about it anymore?" Amon's mouth curled up slightly, which was within his expectations.

"Since you said that, you must be certain. I can only choose to gamble... Ms. Ma Wen will obviously not continue to spend manpower and resources to help me find a second fire slime. It is too difficult to find a completely suitable one! I don't have a second chance!" Yan Jin said firmly.

"A very wise judgment." Amon smiled.

Glenn dodged another attack from the slime and commented with a relaxed expression: "Although the attack range is quite large and the damage of the flame is not bad, the speed is too slow, and the characteristics of releasing the attack are too obvious. A trained ordinary person can easily dodge it."

He showed his martial soul, "Shadow Leopard, Possession."

The dark martial soul, which was shrouded in shadows and could only see the general outline, turned into a phantom and merged with Glenn. A pair of cat ears appeared on his head, and long and sharp claws grew on the front of his ten fingers.

The second soul ring lit up, and Glenn's speed doubled, and he quickly rushed to the front of the slime.

The flame slime was startled and tried to retreat in panic, but its speed of movement was so impressive that it had dozens of wounds on its body before it landed.

Like a deflated balloon, flames kept coming out of its wounds. It suddenly became very weak and its body slowly shrank.

"Hey, don't be stunned. Do you want this soul ring? If you don't do it quickly, it will die." Glenn reminded.

"Yes, yes, yes..." Yan Jin rushed over and summoned his martial soul to smash into its body.

The flame slime shrank with a puff, leaving a pile of orange-yellow, warm liquid on the spot.

Faint yellow light spots began to condense above the slime's body, forming a bright yellow soul ring. Even if Yan Jin didn't touch it, he could feel the huge energy it contained, and couldn't help but doubt whether he could absorb it.

She hesitated for a moment, gritted her teeth, slowly raised her right hand, and gathered her soul power into her palm. Along with the red light, a ball of slowly flowing lava gushed out from her palm, emitting a hot breath.
