Chapter 1578: Blood and Soul

"Mr. Vader, I think the essence of life is to possess souls." Duo Er repeated solemnly.
"Is the essence of life in the soul?"
Joan was skeptical of Doer's assertion, but for a time he could not find a counterexample to refute. Moreover, as far as his current concerns were concerned, the answer given by Doer was just right.
Elemental creatures, constructive creatures, and undead creatures without flesh and blood are indeed, as Douer said, at least they have "spirit" or similar "spirit".
For example, Duoer is a high-pleasure golem. When Professor Moriarty made her, injecting a spirit derived from the fire element into her body is equivalent to injecting her soul.
Without this element of fire, Dooer could not communicate face-to-face with Joanne as he does now.
Joan's own magical fighter "Zagu" is also a creature of construction. Although his intelligence is far less than that of Dooer, he also has a spirit from the earth element and can understand more complicated commands.
"Duoer, thank you for your inspiration, I have figured it out."
"You're welcome, Mr. Vader, it would be great to help you!" Duo Er smiled happily.
Joan Chang took a sigh of relief, went back to his desk and sat down. He first wrote the word "blood" in the notebook, then crossed it out, and then wrote the word "spirit" again, with a checkmark.
Now he has sorted out his thoughts.
Elemental creatures cannot obtain essential blood. You may wish to grab their souls (spirits) instead of essential blood as a casting material for summoning spells. Try to see what happens.
This idea is very interesting, but we must first solve a technical problem, how to obtain the essence of elemental creatures?
"Disaster beetle" is definitely useless, it is not enough to kill elemental creatures directly, the spirit will return to the original plane, just like the devil and the demon, their souls will return to and abyss.
Fortunately, Joan carried a big killer with him, which was specially used to collect the souls of the dead.
Whether it is the soul of human beings, the spirit of demons, or the essence of elements, all can't escape the seal of the "soul bottle"!
Joan opened the storage bag, with a trace of excitement, took out the soul-binding bottle, meditated on the spell, and looked at the souls imprisoned in the bottle.
In chronological order, the soul that was first sealed in the soul-binding bottle belongs to Walter Lee, the "old owl" of the Austrian professor of Leiden College.
This soul was actually sealed by Martin Smith. After Joan retrieved the bound soul bottle from Martin, Walter Lee's soul was not released for various reasons.
The second soul in the bottle comes from the Black Dragon Lisini Bloodstone.
The prince of the Dragon Nest of the Abyss was hired by the Fijian colonists of Jodenheim to participate in the competition for the abyss mine area, and was killed by Joan in a conflict. The soul was also imprisoned in a bottle.
The soul of this powerful black dragon is very precious, and Joan feels that there is no need to use it for experiments. Keep it first, maybe it will be useful in the future.
There are fifteen spirits of the third type in the bottle of Soul Bound, all of which come from "Light Lurkers."
These evil goblins born in the "goblin wilderness" are actually regarded as "outland creatures". Similar to the devil and the demon, the body of the goblin automatically decomposes after the death of the goblin, and the spirit returns to the original plane, that is, "goblin wilderness".
There is also a high-level activated plant soul in the bottle of soul-binding, that is, "Lady in Flowers" Elona, ​​like those lurking in light, was also killed by Joan in the conflict of the Yalv jungle.
There are a total of 12 fourth-type souls sealed in the bottle, all of which come from the yellow spring bee, a trophy collected by Joan when he investigated the truth of the dinosaur rebellion at Lake Aosta not long ago.
The last soul is the little devil that Joan killed yesterday. This crazy guy thought he would be able to return to the bottomless abyss and regain his freedom. But Joan didn’t plan to let go of this nasty guy. It's for experimentation.
But before that, Joan has to do some preparation work.
If the soul spirit is released directly from the soul-binding bottle, it will disappear without a trace. For the convenience of experimental operation, Joan feels that it is necessary to arrange a carrier for the soul spirit that releases the soul-binding bottle, which can save the soul for a long time. To prevent escape, similar to the capsule he used to encapsulate toxins.
What kind of material is suitable for making "capsules" that encapsulate souls?
Joan doesn't need to think about this issue himself. The predecessors of the Necronomicon School have long studied it, and he has read many relevant papers.
Scholars have found that gems are the most suitable for sealing souls. For example, 8 rings of "souling" and 9 rings of "soul binding" will indicate that a gem needs to be prepared before casting, as a container for sealing souls, as long as this one If the gem is not destroyed, the soul will never be able to escape or be resurrected.
The word "gems" is not rigorous. It is hard to tell what kind of ore can be called gems. Natural diamonds are gems, so are artificial diamonds counted as gems?
This topic is endlessly debated, and there is no consensus in the academic community so far.
Joan is not interested in these arguments. He only needs to know which gems can be used to seal the soul, and then choose the most expensive and cheap one.
The answer is actually in front of Joan.
What material is the "Bound Soul Bottle" made of?
Black Onyx.
Is black agate a gem?
Count, but in the jewelry market, black agate is a lower-grade gemstone, much cheaper than ruby, sapphire, jade, cat's eye and the like.
As a container for sealing souls, black agate has a unique advantage, that is, this mineral has a high degree of agreement with negative energy, and is often used as a casting material for necromantic spells.
The soul itself contains a high concentration of negative energy. Encapsulating the soul with a small piece of black agate is like refrigerated watermelon with green ice, which is the best match.
Joan opened the casting material pack, took out some black agate, then opened the soul-binding bottle, first transferred the spirit of the little demon into a piece of black agate, and sealed it. After thinking about it, he released three souls of the light lurker and the yellow spring bee. , Also encapsulated in black agate, as an experimental sample.
Joan first used the spirit of the little devil as a casting material, and matched it with the first-level "monster summoning technique".
After the cast, the little demon's soul was consumed, leaving only a blank black agate.
Joan used "Higher Endoscopy" to view the lynx summoned by the spell, and found that the big cat belonged to the "variant lynx", obtained the "Tanali subspecies", and three supernatural abilities that he was very familiar with.
From the experimental results, using the spirit of the little devil as a casting material has the same effect on strengthening the summoning spell as using the blood of the little demon as the casting material.
