Undead Mage from a Cell

Chapter 668 666: Binding the Flame Light Six Paths Lamp

——————————————

"Hahaha, I've struck gold!"

Looking at the attributes of the Flame Light Six Paths Lamp in his hand, Gu Xi couldn't help but laugh out loud.

The second piece of orange armor, ah.

Although the attributes of this orange armor are hard to assess.

But it has all the prominent features an orange armor should have.

This Flame Light Six Paths Lamp and the Fox Eye Ring clearly belong to different styles.

The Fox Eye Ring is one of the nine-piece set, while this Flame Light Six Paths Lamp is clearly a powerful single piece.

Looking at these attributes, Gu Xi had some doubts; the biggest feature of this Flame Light Six Paths Lamp is the function of the Guiding Lamp.

The Yaksha Jade Tree King might have relied on this ability to reincarnate.

It's a pity that the effect of the Guiding Lamp can only be used once; otherwise, when killing the Yaksha Jade Tree King, the Flame Light Six Paths Lamp would have protected the Yaksha Jade King's soul to escape.

As for the remaining three traits, they are noteworthy as well.

The Six Paths Disc is equivalent to using six different purple armors as inlays; it not only ignores negative effects to exert the full function of the purple armor but can also operate automatically.

Gu Xi doesn't need to control it personally.

This point greatly enhances Gu Xi's combat power.

The effect of the Flame of Purification is similar to the suppression and purification of the Fox Eye Ring.

Only one targets oneself, and the other targets outsiders.

Gu Xi believes that the main function of the Flame of Purification is to counter those changing negative effects.

For example, in the case of the Yaksha King's Arm Hide, the Yaksha Curse will turn a person into a regular Yaksha after thirty usages.

Using the Flame of Purification then can save a person, turning them back into a normal human, capable of using the Yaksha Curse again.

This function greatly reduces the negative effects of the purple armor.

It can be said to be of great significance to Gu Xi's entire team.

As for Flame Heart Protection, it's also a minor peak attribute.

Gu Xi could immediately understand the implication.

If someone chooses to become immune to piercing attacks with Flame Heart Protection, they can face all kinds of attacks from the Black Spear Camp without a scratch.

This is quite a useful skill for Gu Xi.

With this ability, he can ignore a weakness directly.

And right now, what Gu Xi most wants to become immune to is mind magic.

Previously, during the White Training Grand Ceremony, the psychic influence of the Life-taking Stone made Gu Xi suffer a lot.

Now, Gu Xi is keen on finding a way to shield himself from the influence of mind magic.

He thought he had to wait until he completed the Nine-tailed Divine Power Set to have hope.

Unexpectedly, there's another way that can protect Gu Xi from the influence of mind magic.

It can be said that this Flame Light Six Paths Lamp is a standard, purpose-specific orange armor.

Maybe those immensely powerful big shots wouldn't even look at it.

But considering Gu Xi's current level, what right does he have to be picky?

It's already good enough to have it.

Gu Xi lifted the Flame Light Six Paths Lamp, holding it with his left hand while his right hand swept over the lamp holder, preparing to use blood for binding.

At this moment, Luna had already arrived at Gu Xi's side.

"Sir."

Gu Xi thought for a moment, finally setting the Flame Light Six Paths Lamp down first. "How are things? Is the battle outcome settled yet?"

"Not yet. Eldest Princess Anna is finalizing the outcome there. I came to ask if we should follow the enemy's path and strike back?"

Gu Xi was taken aback, realizing what Luna meant by the path of the enemy.

Going on the offensive now seemed like a good idea.

After all, with the Yaksha Jade Tree King dead, their side is likely in chaos too.

Moreover, the Yaksha Jade Tree King brought a large number of men this time, probably emptying the strength under his command.

Going over now, it might not be possible to swallow all the Yaksha Jade Tree King's subordinates, but stealing some resources shouldn't be an issue.

Yet Gu Xi hesitated briefly and still shook his head.

"Forget it, tally up the losses from this time, clean up the battlefield, and leave. This isn't something ordinary people can bring out. I have a feeling there's more calculated behind this.

We know nothing about the information. If we just charge in blindly, we might die without knowing why.

Now is not the time for rash actions. Where is Shaya?"

"Sir."

Shaya quickly appeared in front of Gu Xi.

"You go to the Soul Gathering Land and find out what's going on there. I'll rest here a bit before returning to the Soul Gathering Land.

I hope by then, you can figure out what's happening here.

At the very least, I need to know if, after killing this Yaksha Jade Tree King, we still have the possibility of staying in this world."

Listening to Gu Xi, both Shaya and Luna understood what Gu Xi was worrying about.

The Yaksha Jade Tree King aimed to break through to level 19 and relied on the Flame Light Six Paths Lamp for reincarnation.

Then, behind him, could there be a level 20 boss?

Although Gu Xi now has a level 17 expert under his command, considering how hard they fought against the Yaksha Jade Tree King, it's clear he can't casually challenge a level 20 expert.

Not to mention, Gu Xi took away the most crucial item, the Flame Light Six Paths Lamp!

If targeted seriously, Gu Xi might find it hard to survive in this world.

Gu Xi is no longer the novice he used to be.

Under the guidance of Eldest Princess Anna, Gu Xi is now considered a competent leader.

When thinking through matters, he considers more comprehensively.

Listening to Gu Xi, Luna and Shaya both understood that Gu Xi's arrangement is the best choice for now.

If to take a more extreme approach.

He should signal withdrawal from this exploration world altogether.

Returning to the Soul Gathering Land is already Gu Xi's biggest risk; other matters should not be pursued further.

Additionally, Shaya's trip back to gather information is also a safety guarantee for Gu Xi.

"Rest assured, Sir. I'll make sure to find out the truth."

Once Shaya finished speaking, she swiftly left to gather information back at the Soul Gathering Land.

After Shaya left, Gu Xi calmed down from the excitement of obtaining the Flame Light Six Paths Lamp.

Gu Xi didn't bother pondering whether he should bind the orange armor now.

Instead, he swiped his hand over the Flame Light Six Paths Lamp's holder, slicing open his right hand's artery, causing blood to spur directly from the veins.

When the blood sprayed out, Gu Xi felt a scorching sensation flowing from his lamp-supporting left hand into his body.

Simultaneously, his mind was overcome with dizziness, as if he hadn't slept in ages.

This feeling made Gu Xi quite uncomfortable.

Luna immediately approached to support Gu Xi.

Gu Xi shook his head at Luna, "I'm fine, just binding the orange armor; I'll be okay once I wake up. Go ahead and clean up the battlefield."

By the way, pay attention to the newly emerged Undead in Yalidu City and categorize them appropriately.

Also, locate the level 19 Undead..."
