Chapter 681: Chapter 281 Key Character Mu Rufeng [10,000 Words]_4

"Sigh, the consumption is indeed hefty, but I have plenty of soul banknotes, so it’s not a problem," Mu Rufeng’s face was exceptionally relaxed at this moment.

Because his ghostly spirit amalgamation had fused with the Soul Absorbing Ghost Demon, most of the consumption was taken from the soul banknotes, and his own consumption was comparatively less.

Mu Rufeng could already feel that the soul-sucking gourd had begun to absorb the Soul Power from the Swallowing Sky Demon Whale, and at the same time, all the parasites within the body of the Demon Whale.

Even those Level 9 Ghost Emperor parasites were no exception, unless they deployed their ghostly barriers to completely cut off the connection.

Mu Rufeng’s rate of soul power absorption was not slow.

Before, Ye Lin needed ten minutes to absorb 0.1 spiritual units, while Mu Rufeng only needed one minute afterward.

If it were those who had lost their resistance, the absorption would be even quicker.

In this way, those Level 1 parasites would only take twenty minutes to be absorbed completely.

Level 2 parasites would require double that time, needing forty minutes.

For each additional level, the time needed would likely double, and if the parasites had realized the use of ghostly barriers, the time needed would have to double again.

Even a Level 8 Ghost King possessing ghostly barriers had only 1280 spiritual units, which equated to 1280 minutes.

Of course, parasites with ghostly barriers could significantly slow down the rate of absorption.

But overall, a duration of three to five days would certainly be sufficient.

It seemed rather quick when looked at that way.

————————

When the Soul Absorbing Ghost Demon enveloped the entire Swallowing Sky Demon Whale, the three Ghost Emperors knew right away.

Their expressions changed slightly, but they relaxed soon after.

Because they sensed that this layer of ghostly spirit carried the aura of the Swallowing Sky Demon Whale, it was obviously a ghostly barrier released by the Whale itself.

Not only were they not worried, but they were also secretly pleased because this would result in further consumption of the Whale’s Rule power.

Their plan could thereby be implemented much faster.

"Bad news, Clan Leader, terrible news," the little one ran back to their dwelling in a blind panic.

Seeing this, Anrub’s brows furrowed slightly, "What’s wrong? Is there a problem with the Contractor?"

"Clan Leader, the Contractor you asked me to keep an eye on has disappeared," the little one quickly reported.

"What? Disappeared? How is that possible?" Anrub suddenly stood up, staring intently at the little one.

"It’s true, he’s gone. He was clearly there before, but when I checked just now, he was gone," the little one hurriedly explained.

"Idiot." Anrub grabbed the little one and quickly headed towards the passage.

However, halfway there, he abruptly stopped. For some reason, he felt as if a trace of his soul power had been extracted from his body.

It was faint, but it had indeed been taken.

Anrub, however, didn’t pay too much attention to it, as the most important concern at the moment was the Contractor.

The Contractor was key to his plans, and nothing could go wrong.

If Mu Rufeng carried out what he had said, Anrub would then be able to hasten the control over the Swallowing Sky Demon Whale.

Otherwise, Mu Rufeng wouldn’t even get the chance to see the Whale, as Anrub would have crushed him the moment he showed up.

In just five minutes, Anrub reached the passageway.

Dammit, the guy hadn’t dug at all, not a bit. "How could you have not noticed all this time?" Anrub scrutinized the situation and glared at the little one.

"No, every time I looked, that Contractor and his Contract Demon were eating so eagerly, even I envied them, look, I ate so much flesh." The little one pointed towards the small den where it had been hiding.

"Idiot, you’re such an idiot," Anrub slapped the little one dead in one blow.

However, the soul power of the little one was instantly absorbed by the soul-sucking gourd upon its death.

"Something’s not right, something’s not right, why is this ghostly barrier absorbing my soul power?"

Anrub once again felt a thread of his soul power being sucked away, though very little, he was certain he hadn’t felt it wrong.

Anrub, without a word, returned to their dwelling place and proceeded to interrogate each of the parasites one by one.

The parasites nodded their heads, they too felt it, stating that they were thick-skinned and didn’t mind it at all.

These parasites had the strength of a Level 7 Ghost General or above, and only their minds were somewhat normal.

The parasites below Level 7 could be said to be a bit dull, commonly known as thick-skinned.

This seemed to be a common issue among insectoid species.

Truth be told, the Dwarf Demon Clan was actually one of the better ones, at least possessing a hint of intelligence.

Like the Blood-eating Worms in the Dead Sea.

Apart from the Level 8 Ghost Kings and Level 9 Ghost Emperors, the other Blood-eating Worms had no rationality at all, consuming relentlessly and only following the commands of High-level Blood-eating Insects.

"Something’s not right, it’s really not right," Anrub was also aware that something was amiss, and shortly after, two antennae appeared on his forehead.

He was contacting his main body now.

Soon, the main body was informed.

Because even Level 9 Ghost Emperors were still having their soul power absorbed by the soul-sucking gourd.

Only, the rate was very slow.

Like the Soul Power of the Swallowing Sky Demon Whale, much slower.

Like now, although the Level 1 parasites were all dead, the Demon Whale had yet to have 0.1 of its Soul Power absorbed.

Anrub, located deep within the brain, slowly opened his eyes.
