.Chapter 118 Mutation (please vote for me)

Lin Xiao wanted to reach out and summon the "Thorn Claw" to block it, but it was too late. When he saw this strange stone-clawed beast about to hit him with one pounce, the "Rat Demon" who had been lying silently behind him suddenly took action.

.

This "rat demon" just clung to Lin Xiao's body. Without Lin Xiao's support, it would not be able to break away from its master's body and enter the ground hundreds of meters deep.

Although it is far away from its owner now, the one who really controls it is still the owner sitting cross-legged on the oasis, that is, the "second brother" among the five mysterious people.

A pair of red eyes rolled and a finger stretched out. In an instant, the finger seemed to be lit and turned red. Lin Xiao was in it and felt a burning sensation on his back.

This "mouse beast" had already extended its fingers, bypassed Lin Xiao, and touched the forehead of the strange stone-clawed beast that rushed forward.

With a "pop" sound, the fiery red luster on the rat demon's fingers lit up, and a hole was immediately poked out of the forehead of this strange stone-clawed beast. The rat demon's fingers turned into claws in an instant, and the five fingers opened and closed, grabbing

The head of this weird little stone-clawed beast was thrown into the air.

"Whoosh!" The wind roared, and this strange stone-clawed beast was thrown dozens of meters away, then hit the wisteria cave wall on one side, and then rolled down again. The hole in its forehead kept popping up.

The flames were burning, and soon, this weird little stone-clawed beast was burned to ashes.

Lin Xiao was startled, and his palms were covered in cold sweat. The mouth of the rat demon behind him moved slightly, and the voice of the "second brother" among the five mysterious people came from inside: "Don't be afraid, if you encounter danger, the rat demon will protect you."

, you just have to move forward."

It only took a short moment from the moment he was attacked by this weird little stone-clawed beast to the moment the rat demon took action to burn and kill the little stone-clawed beast. Then, Lin Xiao felt a ripple from the message ring he was wearing on the little finger of his left hand.

A set of data appeared in his brain.

"Name: Metamorphosis Stoneclaw Beast. A dark beast that was mutated by gaining unknown power from the Stoneclaw Beast among the lowest-level dark beasts. It has the speed and power to match the intermediate dark beasts. It can be found in some areas with special and unknown mysterious power.

, this kind of mutated dark beast is born very occasionally."

What was transmitted from the ring that stored a large amount of information was obviously the strange little stone-clawed beast that had just been killed by the "Rat Demon". Lin Xiao sensed the information and had a look of surprise on his face.

I finally understood why I couldn't resist the attack of this strange stone-clawed beast with my current self.

Just because this mutated stone claw beast is no longer the lowest level dark beast, but has the power to rival the mid-level dark beast.

Now Lin Xiao can know that there are three types of dark beasts, which are the lowest level dark beasts. For example, the stone claw beast, the earth snake beast, the iron turtle beast and the fire ox beast are all the lowest level dark beasts.

Then there are the "lower-level dark beasts" that are one level higher than the lowest dark beasts, such as the eyeless snake beast, such as the desert lizard, such as the steel centipede, etc., these are all such "lower-level dark beasts".

And what is even more powerful than the "lower-level dark beast" is the "intermediate-level dark beast". According to the dark beast illustrated book he got last time, it introduced one and the only kind of "intermediate-level dark beast".

Beast", that is the "three-headed centipede".

It is much more powerful than monsters such as the "Eyeless Snake Beast", "Desolate Sand Lizard" and "Iron Centipede", so it can be regarded as an "intermediate dark beast". What Lin Xiao did not expect was a lowest-level ordinary stone claw.

The beast can actually become powerful enough to rival the mid-level dark beast due to the acquisition of some special power.

He felt shocked, and those who were also a little surprised were these four mysterious humans in the oasis.

"Unexpectedly, it turned out to be a mutated dark beast. It seems that our guess was correct. Deep in the dongxue, there must be an unknown special power that we don't know about. Otherwise, it would be impossible for such a mutated dark beast to be born." He sat cross-legged.

The second brother sitting there was a little surprised in his voice, and also a little excited.

Since seeing the mutant dark beast, it means that the dark beast has absorbed some unknown power. It can also be deduced that there must be some special power deep in the dongxue. This may not be a bad thing for them.

"A mutated dark beast?" The giant man was also refreshed and said: "What is the specific performance? I will go down now?"

The second brother, who was sitting cross-legged with his eyes closed, said: "The change is mainly reflected in the single horn, which is lavender in color, and there are wisteria everywhere under the dongxue. It seems that this unknown source of power should be influenced by

I have learned about the plants and the existence of dark beasts there, but...the people living under this desert town should be desert-type dark beasts. How come there are mutants of stone-clawed beasts? Strange..."

The mysterious woman grabbed the giant man and said: "Brother, don't worry, let the human continue to explore for us. If we are sure that there is no danger or there is something special, we won't be too late to take action. Let's go in now.

It's too dangerous, Third Brother's Nether Beast is not weak, but after entering, there is no news at all, so we have to be on guard."

Jiliu hummed after hearing the mysterious woman's words, relaxed his palms, and struck the golden snake spear in his hand on the ground beside him.

In the tunnel of the dong cave, Lin Xiao watched the mutated stone-clawed beast being instantly burned to ashes, and thought that according to the information in the message ring, this mutated stone-clawed beast had the strength of an "intermediate dark beast"

, but in front of this "rat demon", it is vulnerable.

This shows how powerful this "rat demon" is, probably even more powerful than the unknown blue monster possessed by the mysterious woman.

"Is this rat demon also a phantom beast? Or does it have other abilities? It's really too powerful... Even this mutated stone-clawed beast that can rival an intermediate dark beast is vulnerable to it."

Lin Xiao pondered, and he, who was originally nervous, felt a little more relaxed. At least the mysterious man did not lie. This rat demon would indeed protect him when he was in danger.

And now that he is in this unknown and terrifying underground cave, the stronger the rat demon is, the better it will be for him, and the safer he will be.

The Rat Demon instantly killed the "Abnormal Stone Claw Beast". When its fiery red right hand retracted, a burst of soul energy swept out of its right hand.

The strength of this mutated stone-clawed beast is comparable to the "intermediate dark beast", and its soul energy is also as powerful as the "intermediate dark beast". While killing the mutated stone-clawed beast, the rat demon absorbed an extremely powerful energy.

Strong soul energy.

What surprised and delighted Lin Xiao was that while the rat demon absorbed this strong soul energy, a trace of soul energy penetrated into his body and was absorbed by the phantom beast in his body.

Although the rat demon is not owned by Lin Xiao, it is now attached to his body. When he killed the dark beast, the rat demon absorbed the soul energy. Because it was attached to Lin Xiao's body, he also possessed it.

Gained a trace of soul energy.

Although Lin Xiao only received a trace of soul energy from this "mutated stone-clawed beast", because this "mutated stone-clawed beast" was classified as an intermediate dark beast, even though it was a trace of soul energy, it was almost

It can hold up to the soul energy of half an eyeless snake beast.

Feeling the interest of the little stone-clawed beast that had absorbed the soul energy in his body, Lin Xiao breathed a sigh of relief and began to walk forward faster. The strength of the rat demon on his back gave him a sense of confidence.

Anyway, it is impossible to retreat now. If he retreats now, the four mysterious people will not let him go. In this case, let's go in, and there may be unexpected gains.

Following the tangled wisteria, Lin Xiao began to run. Just after running for more than 20 meters, he was attacked again. It was also a mutated stone-clawed beast with a lavender horn. It slanted out of the wisteria.

Emerged from underneath and pounced on Lin Xiao.

The current Lin Xiao couldn't react, but there was no need for Lin Xiao to resist. The body of the rat monster clinging to his back flashed with fire, and he stretched out his right claw and grabbed the mutated stone-clawed beast.

Hold on, the five flaming fingers melted the skin and bones of the stoneclaw beast and clawed their way into its body.

There was a crisp sound, and the mutated stone-clawed beast as big as a lynx was in the rat demon's right paw. It was burned to ashes and could not even utter a scream.

The rat demon absorbed a large amount of soul energy, and a trace of soul energy also merged into Lin Xiao's body and was absorbed by the phantom beast in his body.

Because he and his phantom beast now have a symbiotic soul relationship, and the soul energy of both parties is fused together, so the phantom beast absorbs the soul energy, making his soul stronger, and at the same time, Lin Xiao's own soul,

It is also becoming stronger.

It can even be said that the soul of the phantom beast and his own human soul have now merged into one, regardless of each other. The soul energy absorbed by killing the dark beast is increasing his soul energy, and specifically

The effect shown is that the phantom beast continues to become stronger, and the power he obtains also continues to grow stronger.

His body and the phantom beast are actually one body and two sides.

After relying on the rat demon and getting the message ring, and sharing a trace of soul energy, Lin Xiao vaguely felt a strange realization while continuing to rush in.

This is an understanding of the nature of the phantom beast.

Originally, his understanding of the phantom beast was that the cocoon of the "dark beast" was parasitic in his body, and the souls of both parties were symbiotic, absorbing soul energy, and the phantom beast would evolve and grow, but now it seems that this is not the case.

From the time he absorbed the cocoon of the Dark Beast, he and the Phantom Beast were actually inseparable from each other, and their souls became one. In other words, he, Lin Xiao, and his Phantom Beast were actually the same person.
