Chapter 2372  400 Million Credits

Once the flurry of bright lights vanished, the group looked at the dark crater that was fully scorched. The corpse of the Yin Nascent Soul Maggot was left in it, with over a third of it's body having simply evaporated while the rest of it had turned into a charred mess.

No blood or other fluids spilled from it, having all been boiled away into a dry carcass!

The scent of ozone was left in the air, while the Death Qi and other baleful energies in a radius of five kilometers were also either burned away or simply pushed away by the pressure.

"Is it dead?" Crown Princess Shang asked carefully.

"It should be." Lin Mu said, his eyes scanning for anything suspicious while his Immortal Sense probed the corpse at the same time. ~SHUA~SHUA~SHUA~

"Mmhmm, it's truly dead." He finally said, seeing that the credits were being granted to everyone.

"Whoa! Forty million?" Qiao De was the first to exclaim.

They all saw their numbers, finding them to have increased by quite a lot once more. The Yin Nascent Soul Maggot granted them a lot of credits, with the grand total coming to at roughly four hundred million credits!

Everyone got an equal amount, which was already expected to them.

Lin Mu glanced at the total amount as well as the individual amounts, realizing that the number was not the same as before, and neither did it have the similarity to the previous one that he had killed.

"Looks like the amount of credits we get from the Yin Nascent Soul Maggot is also dependent on how many Chimeric beasts it has killed." Lin Mu said after thinking about it.

"Hmm, do you think they are perhaps raising these Yin Nascent Soul Maggots on the Chimeric Beasts?" Ziran asked, realizing what Lin Mu was hinting at.

"Quite possibly." Lin Mu nodded his head. "It might actually be one of the reasons they are here. They're using this Spatial Plane as a nurturing ground for these maggots." He stated.

"If so, this will be quite complex and dangerous." Crown Prince Feng Shun spoke. "Unlike us it doesn't seem like these Yin Nascent Soul Maggots are worried about the Baleful Energies or even the Death Qi." He added.

"Yeah, I could sense the traces of Death Qi in it too. In a sense it's the more 'offensive' form of the Chimera Plant." Lin Mu replied.

Similar to the Yin Nascent Soul Maggot, the Chimera Plant was also consuming everything, including the Death Qi and the previous Chimeric Beasts. It was then replacing them with stronger Chimeric Beast variants that were not only resistant to Death Qi on some level but also managing to get stronger upon death by using the Berserk Skill.

The massive credit gain from both kinds of beings was also dependent on the number of Chimeric Beasts, but whereas in one case it depended on the consuming of the Chimeric Beasts, in the other it depended on the production of Chimeric Beasts.

The two were at the Opposite ends of the plectrums but Lin Mu could tell that the Yin Nascent Soul Maggot were still quite weak.

After all, they didn't have the same level of durability that the Chimera Plants had that basically made them impervious to most damage.

The Yin Nascent Soul Maggot could still be killed by individual as well as combined efforts, as long as one was strong enough. Plus the weaknesses of the Yin Nascent Soul Maggot were also a bit more obvious as compared to the Chimera plant.

"What did you find in the camp, Daoist Mu Lin?" Crown Prince Feng Shun asked.

"Ah yes!" Lin Mu took out all the thins that he had managed to take before killing the Yin Nascent Soul Maggot.

~SHUA~SHUA~SHUA~

He took out a couple of broken idols, as well as several broken weapons and trinkets.

"Is it all junk?" Qiao De asked. "Did they break all this themselves?" Crown Princess Shang asked.

"No…" Ziran shook his head. "Look at the damage on these swords… these are bite and claw marks." He stated.

"These seem to be the weapons that got damage in a fight against the Chimeric Beasts." Lin Mu stated. "They probably tried to repair them but couldn't do so and were forced to evacuate leaving them behind." He added.

"What about these idols then?" Crown Princess Shang asked.

The idols didn't seem to have any damage from the beasts, but had been cut smoothly in two.

"Why did they destroy them instead of just taking them along with them?" Daoist Chu wondered. "They certainly have some function." "I found these embedded in the ground… well, at least the base part." Lin Mu replied. "Looks like they were the communication nodes of some kind and couldn't be moved since they are part of a larger relay." He explained.

"Oh? Relay nodes?" Daoist Chu took a closer look this time and scanned it with his immortal sense. "I see it now… there are definitely remnants of information here… very recent too."

"Can you extract it?" Crown Prince Feng Shun asked, seeing that they had some clues.

"I should be able to." Daoist Chu answered. "They must have only set this up very recently and had to break it down. Otherwise they would've had to set up encryption on this as well that was a lot stronger than just the basic kind." He said as he started to probe it.

Lin Mu picked up the second idol and checked it too, trying to see if he could retrieve the information too.

This was a task of priority since there was a high chance the information would simply fade away if they waited. Thus, even though there was a chance of danger coming their way, it was needed to be done right away.

The two Formation masters didn't take long either, finishing it in just an hour and extracting whatever they could.

"Hoho… looks like I got something good." Daoist Chu smiled.
