The inherent uncertainty of this talisman is a recognized shortcoming. If not for this, its price could be ten times higher.

At this moment, Meng Zhou felt that this uncertainty was exactly its advantage.

Before it starts, even it itself doesn't know where it will go next, let alone others.

With this thought in his mind, Meng Zhou's consciousness swept into the second storage space.

It was an anklet worn on the ankle of a strange little monkey.

After his spiritual consciousness penetrated it, Meng Zhou realized that this was actually a special "insect nest", which contained more than 500 insects with strange shapes.

Their appearance is about 60-70% similar to that of ants, but they are much larger. They have wings and carapace, and each carapace exudes a bright black luster.

There are nearly a hundred of them, and there are tiny golden spots on the shiny black carapace.

At this moment, I don't know whether it was because of the man's death or because they were seriously injured. Each one of them had weak breath, like a weak and dim candle that could be extinguished by a gust of wind at any time.

Meng Zhou's consciousness stayed on these insects for a moment, and then continued to scan towards another animal bag.

This is also a storage space taken from the man himself.

The interior space of this animal bag is huge. Inside, there is a prostrate black snake, a gray raptor that looks like a vulture, and three dogs that look like wolves, but they have exposed oracle bones on their faces, backs, and limbs, as if they were wearing a coat.

Skeleton equipment.

These beast masters all exude the aura of brutality that has gone through hundreds of battles.

But their condition is worse than those insects carried by the strange little monkey. If those insects are barely alive, these beasts have lost even the last trace of their remaining blood, and only a little bit of warmth is still left.

.

Obviously, they all died silently with the death of their master.

As a spiritual control master, Meng Zhou naturally understood this kind of operation.

The spiritual master's contractual connection to the beast master can take many forms.

The general rule is that the shallower the connection, the worse the controllability.

The deeper the connection, the stronger the controllability, and even the control of the beast becomes like a clone of oneself.

But there are potential risks.

If the beast master dies, the backlash on the spirit master will be even deeper.

On the other hand, if the spirit master dies, the backlash suffered by the master will be even more serious, and the soul of the master will even be dispersed along with the master's death.

Obviously, these beasts carefully selected by the spirit master have enjoyed such treatment.

Then, Meng Zhou's consciousness glanced at the second storage space on the man's body.

This is a pendant, hanging on the man's chest. From its position, you can see how much he cherishes it.

Before his spiritual consciousness penetrated, Meng Zhou was also looking forward to it.

But after seeing what was going on inside, Meng Zhou was shocked.

"What is this?"

This is a space like a beast's bag that can hold living animals.

Moreover, the specifications of this space were much higher, because in this space with a length, width and height of about ten meters, Meng Zhou saw a pool of spiritual water.

The bottom of the pool is paved with smooth pebbles of different colors. In the space and in the water, there are fish, aquatic plants, and air.

In such a space that can hold living animals, the most conspicuous position, that is, in the center of the pool, lies on a stone half exposed to the water. It looks like a piece of greasy fat at first glance, but upon closer inspection, it looks like a piece of fat.

It's like a strange fungus.

Half of this thing is submerged in the water, and half is exposed above the water.

After Meng Zhou was surprised, he soon realized that this thing must be very precious.

His consciousness penetrated into the man's third storage space. This was a storage ring, and it was also his most commonly used storage space.

The first impression is that it is big, very big, almost as big as one of his top-grade second-grade Nakong gourds.

The second impression is that of clutter.

In the most conspicuous place in the center of the space, there are many spiritual materials piled up, as well as many finished spiritual puppets and semi-finished spiritual puppets.

Meng Zhou's eyes stayed on these spiritual materials and various spiritual puppets for a moment, and then moved to another place.

It was some of the man's private collection, including elixirs, magical weapons, and talismans. These are all standard items for practitioners wherever they go.

There are also twelve high-grade spiritual stones and more than 600 medium-grade spiritual stones.

But except for the three small moving talismans that made Meng Zhou's eyes light up, the other items were very ordinary. Not to mention that they could not be compared with Qiao Yu, the Alchemy Sect sect member, and the ninth-level foundation-building monk with Qiao Yu.

The elixirs and magic weapons he carries with him are no worse than him.

"We don't even have a third-level magic weapon, and they all say that the spirit master is a poor man. It seems that the rumors are true." Meng Zhou curled his lips inwardly, and further lowered his evaluation of this dead man.

However, his consciousness swept over the large pile of various spiritual materials, various finished and semi-finished spiritual puppets, and he remembered what he saw in other storage spaces, so he put away his disdain.

If all these things were converted into spiritual stones, not to mention that the ninth-level foundation-building monk couldn't compare with him, even Qiao Yu couldn't beat him with one hand.

Then, Meng Zhou's spiritual consciousness swept towards the last place in the space.

Hundreds of books were neatly stacked, and after some random searching with his spiritual consciousness, Meng Zhou discovered that most of them were actually this person's "anatomy notes."

For example, in his latest notebook, he saw what he saw in the moon mirror, his detailed record of skinning and removing the owner's heart, and transplanting it to the spirit puppet.

This short record contains such rich cruelty and blood.

Meng Zhou looked at these hundreds of books again, and for a moment, he felt like he was immersed in a sea of ​​blood.

But on the other hand, Meng Zhou's rationality let him know that the value of these things is unparalleled!

For practitioners in this world, the first time they see these notes, they should burn them completely, smash their bones and scatter them into ashes. Leaving a little bit of residue in this world means that they are not doing things cleanly and thoroughly.

But in Meng Zhou's view, the process by which these things came to this world was indeed bloody, but this knowledge was also extremely valuable!

Because of these classics, Meng Zhou had some complicated emotions towards the dead unknown man.

"I really didn't expect that you are actually a scientist."

Meng Zhou briefly looked through these notes. The oldest notes were more than a hundred years old. From the contents, Meng Zhou was able to determine that the person's cultivation at that time was around the late stage of Qi training.

However, not all of these hundreds of classics are his personal "anatomy diaries", and some are various anecdotal notes.

And the content is much higher level than the ones Meng Zhou bought from the black market, involving a lot of third-level information.

As for the anecdotal notes he bought from the black market, basically only the second-level information was credible. The third-level information that was occasionally mentioned was safer to treat as legends.

In addition to these classics, there are also three jade slips here.

Meng Zhou has had a habit since he was a child. He likes to put the most delicious food at the end.

He had the highest expectations for these three jade slips.

He stabilized his mind and then penetrated the first jade slip with his spiritual consciousness.

Soon, after discovering its contents, he felt happy.

This jade slip records the complete inheritance of the third-level spirit master.

After seeing this inherited jade slip, Meng Zhou became more convinced of this person's identity.

"This person must be a monk from the Yuling Sect."

But if Meng Zhou felt pure joy when he saw this jade slip, then when he saw the next two jade slips, he was only shocked.

The second jade slip records the refining method of a natal spirit puppet called "Soul-eating Monkey".

The biggest feature of this kind of natal spirit puppet is that once it is refined, it does not require much maintenance and can be improved along with the practitioner's own strength.

This kind of soul-eating monkey is good at sucking souls. Not only does it have powerful soul attack capabilities, it also has a strong defensive and restraint effect on external soul attacks.

If someone uses a spirit attack technique to target a man, such as the "Chaotic Divine Wind" that Meng Zhou once saw, he must first pass through this spirit puppet before harming the man.

The "chaotic wind" that human monks avoid is a piece of cake for this "soul-eating monkey". It can be swallowed cleanly in one sip.

It can be said that having such a natal spirit puppet is equivalent to living in a fortress castle for the spirit controller.

In order to maintain progress, the spirit master must spend a lot of time controlling beasts and puppets.

However, a monk's time and energy are limited. If too much time is spent here, it will naturally be impossible to take care of other places.

And the importance of the soul cannot be ignored by any monk.

No matter how strong it is in other aspects, as long as its shortcomings in this area are too obvious, it is just a lamb to be slaughtered.

The natal spirit puppet "Soul-eating Monkey" perfectly solves this contradiction faced by the spirit master.

Transform the problems related to the soul into the framework of the spirit master to solve them.

However, Meng Zhou discovered that this method had a fatal drawback.

In order for this kind of natal soul to continue to progress, it needs to continuously absorb the souls of other monks.

Based on his attainments in the art of controlling spirits, Meng Zhou looked at it for a while and already judged that for a "soul-eating monkey" to grow to the second-level high-grade, it is simply impossible to have less than five souls in the late stage of foundation building.
