Global Descent into the Crypt World: A Divine-Level Decomposer - Chapter 28

Chapter 28: A Bumper Harvest

Xia Chengfeng took a few restorative elixirs. Xiaozi flew to the [Beginner Beast God Totem] to recover her strength.

The battles that followed were much easier. Five Lv6 Taurens weren’t even able to charge out of the tunnel before they’d been killed by Xia Chengfeng’s long-range attacks.

Xia Chengfeng then decomposed the corpses of the ordinary Taurens.

System Notification: “Obtained [Blood Vapor Essence Lv6] x 10, [Soul Rock Fragment Lv6] x 10, [Tauren Skeleton Lv6] x 10, [Sturdy Bull Horn Lv6] x 10.”

Next were the two [Violent Tauren Chieftains Lv7 (Elite)].

System Notification: “Decomposition success. Obtained [Blood Vapor Crystal Lv7] x 2, [Soul Rock Lv7] x 2, [Sturdy Tauren Skeleton Lv7] x 2, [Tauren Warrior Gloves Lv7 (Good)] x 1, [Tauren Warrior Leggings Lv7 (Good)] x 1.”

Equipment carried by monsters would also appear in the list of items after they had been decomposed.

Other than the materials, Xia Chengfeng also gained two pieces of equipment.

[Tauren Warrior Gloves Lv7 (Good)]: Gloves made out of a sturdy beast hide. Carved with a small number of strength runes. Blessed by the beast god.

[Tauren Warrior Leggings Lv7 (Good)]: Leggings made out of the cartilage of a beast. Carved with a small number of defense runes and speed runes. Blessed by a beast god.

Lv7 pieces of equipment were a rarity on the trading channel. They would be bought instantly if he listed them for sale.

Xia Chengfeng chose to keep them for himself. However, he washed them before changing into them.

He dragged the corpse of the Tauren elder out of the poison and started to decompose it.

This time, the decomposition process was rather slow.

System Notification: “Your mental state is too weak. Decomposition failed.”

“The decomposition failed?” This was the first time Xia Chengfeng had ever experienced this. Xia Chengfeng’s talent [Evil Eye of Destruction] had remained consistent with his level. He had never failed a decomposition in the past.

“It looks like I have to think of ways to increase the star level of my magic soul.”

Other than strengthening his talent ability, increasing the star level of his magic soul might also grant him new talent abilities.

Xia Chengfeng rested for a while and tried to decompose the Tauren elder’s corpse again. He succeeded this time.

System Notification: “Decomposition success. Obtained [Blood Vapor Crystal Lv8] x 1, [Soul Rock Lv8] x 1, [Tauren Elder’s Skeleton Lv8] x 1, [Tauren Elder’s Ax Lv8 (Great)] x 1, [Runic Key] x 1, [Tauren Elder’s Power Belt Lv8 (Great)] x 1.”

Xia Chengfeng couldn’t bear to turn the skeletons of elite or leader monsters to ash. A necromancer might be able to make a decent skeleton monster out of those.

He could also use them to make magic puppets.

[Tauren Elder’s Ax Lv8 (Great)]: A giant ax made out of black steel. Carved with strength runes. A great weapon for berserkers.

[Tauren Elder’s Power Belt Lv8 (Great)]: It is a belt of glory that only the most powerful Tauren warrior can obtain. Blessed by Beast God Minos, it can improve a user’s strength immensely.

Xia Chengfeng hummed a small tune as he obtained two more powerful items.

“It’s time to go look for treasure chests. Xiaozi, let’s go!” Xia Chengfeng called for Xiaozi. She immediately flew to his side. She was more excited than Xia Chengfeng about searching for treasure. She instantly charged into the tunnel.

There were still ordinary Taurens injured by the traps in the tunnel. Xia Chengfeng dealt with them easily.

Xia Chengfeng noticed that the leader’s cave had descended into chaos when he entered it.

Perhaps news of the Tauren elder’s death had spread to the cave. The Taurens were attacking each other. Some of them were even trying to escape through other tunnels.

Xia Chengfeng spent a great deal of energy to kill off the rest of the Taurens.

Xia Chengfeng pursued them into the tunnel. The other end of the tunnel was a One Star goblin cave. The goblins in the cave had already been killed by the Taurens and their resources had all been looted. Xia Chengfeng chose to conquer the goblin cave after he’d finished off the Taurens.

Xia Chengfeng found the corpse of the [Tauren Shaman Lv7 (Elite)] after he’d decomposed a bunch of [Violent Taurens].

Fortunately, none of the Taurens had dared to touch the shaman’s corpse out of respect for the shaman.

System Notification: “Decomposition success. Obtained [Blood Vapor Crystal L7] x 1, [One Star Magic Soul Fragment] x 1, [Frail Tauren Skeleton Lv7] x 1, [Tauren Shaman’s Wizard Technique Mask Lv7 (Good)] x 1, [Runic Key] x 1.”

[One Star Magic Soul Fragment]: A one star magic soul fragment can be used to absorb or create magic elixirs, magic weapons, or magic puppets.

[Tauren Shaman’s Wizard Technique Mask Lv7 (Good)]: A mask carved with mysterious runes. It can be used to strengthen mental energy and element perception ability.

Xia Chengfeng searched the shaman’s room for a little while and found a few herbs. He also found a [Runic Treasure Chest].

He opened the chest with a key and saw that there were several items inside.

[Mental Attack Skill Book (Exceptional)]: Attack the enemy with mental energy. It can disrupt the thoughts of the enemy and cause temporary dizziness and mental damage.

[Beast God Blessing Skill Book (Exceptional)]: Blesses beastmen-type creatures to strengthen their regeneration rate, power, speed, and mental energy.

[Wizard Technique Serum Formula Lv7]: The wizard technique serum can temporarily boost the power of a user’s mental energy.

[Medium Bag of Magic Crystal Coins]: Contains 1,102 magic crystal coins.

ROAR! Xia Chengfeng was just about to take the magic crystal coins when Xiaozi sniffed the ripples of energy coming from the coins. She pounced forward and bit on the bag of coins.

Xia Chengfeng was prepared for this.

“Xiaozi, look, what is this?” He took out a shiny glass bead. The bead refracted the light into a myriad of colors. This was a freebie he’d obtained when purchasing resources from the trading channel. It was an ordinary glass bead.

Xiaozi’s large eyes were immediately attracted to the glass bead.

“Do you want it? You have to trade those coins with me. But you don’t have enough magic crystal coins there. The magic crystal coins that we find later will also belong to me.” Xia Chengfeng intentionally brought the bead to a place with the highest intensity of light. It made the bead look even more incandescent and eye-catching.

Xiaozi looked at the magic crystal coins, then glanced at the glass bead. She deliberated for a long while before nodding her head and handing the coins over to Xia Chengfeng. She then happily went to play with her glass bead.

After he tucked away the items, Xia Chengfeng continued to search the Tauren elder’s living quarters for more spoils of war.

He first searched the sacrificial altar of the Tauren village and found two things:

The first was the [Beginner Beast God Totem]. Xia Chengfeng already had one of those and could sell this one.

The next was [Sacrificial Torch (Special Item)]. This was a sacrificial item used to burn soul rocks. It could stabilize a user’s mental state and strengthen a user’s control over elemental power when ignited.

This was also a good item. It could be used during his practice or when he was crafting magic elixirs, magic weapons, or alchemy puppets.

Xia Chengfeng entered the Tauren elder’s living quarters after he was finished with the sacrificial altar and found the runic treasure chest hidden there.

This runic chest was much larger than all the others he had come across. It seemed to contain many items.

Xia Chengfeng took out a runic key. He opened the lid of the chest after the runes on the key and the chest disappeared, and he saw a large pile of items.
