200: Hunt down the Demon River! Space Expansion Runestone!

[Mo Qingchuan: Blue Rare Quality; Level 25 Water Element Demon, Guardian Spring Demon of the Succubus race. All enemies submerged in the spring water will be demonized within 3 seconds and undergo Pollution Conversion into Charm Bugs within 60 seconds! Health: 1 million; Spirit: 100,000;]

"Hiss! Is this thing alive?"

Su Lie's eyelid twitched.

He quickly took two steps back.

Just then, Su Lie suddenly realized that the clear spring water was overflowing towards his feet.

Moreover, more than a dozen streams of water had already encircled it within a circle approximately 40 meters in diameter.

"This is the first time I've seen this type of monster!"

Su Lie muttered softly, taking out the hk416 automatic rifle again.

He aimed at Mo Qingchuan's spring source.

After performing the Spirit mark, Su Lie pulled the trigger while retreating.

Da! Da! Da!

Two seconds later, Su Lie stopped.

The bullets poured into the clear spring's source, but caused no damage to the clear spring, only splashing up clusters of water.

Seeing this, Su Lie put away the automatic rifle and switched to the Mist Pistol.

The advantage of the automatic rifle is its fast rate of fire.

Although one bullet only deals 10,000 damage, it can fire 100,000 rounds per minute.

Relying on this torrential offensive, it can tear apart all enemies.

The Mist Pistol can fire 200 rounds per second, with a rate of fire of 12,000 Skill bullets per minute.

Although its rate of fire is lower than the automatic rifle's.

The Skill bullets fired by the Mist Pistol are more powerful and versatile.

The two weapons can be used alternately when dealing with different scenarios.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

Su Lie was using Ice Stream Bullet, and when the bullets landed on the spring source, they instantly sealed the flow of water.

Furthermore, after the Ice Stream Bullet exploded, the water surrounding the clear spring's source was also frozen.

Under the effect of the passive Skill Monster Prompt, Su Lie saw Mo Qingchuan's Health instantly drop by over 20,000 Health and over 10,000 Spirit.

Clearly, Mo Qingchuan used its own power to defend during the previous attack.

Su Lie did not stop moving, nor did he stop shooting.

Under his continuous attack, Mo Qingchuan's vitality quickly dropped to 0.

Under the effect of the Ice Stream Bullet, it cracked open, letting out a painful wail.

Subsequently, the location of Mo Qingchuan's spring source began to bubble with clusters of purplish-red blood.

The blood carried extremely high temperatures, rapidly melting the surrounding soil into lava.

The lava flowed continuously along the direction of the water streams.

Zzz! Zzz! Zzz!

Mo Qingchuan's water streams quickly evaporated into steam under this heat.

Only then did Su Lie walk forward and retrieve a god-tier basic resource treasure chest and one level 2 monster crystal from the bubbling lava.

"Huh? There's another Treasure Chest?"

Su Lie grabbed a Treasure Chest from beneath the resource Treasure Chest.

He took out the Eye of Identification and examined it carefully.

[Rune Stone Treasure Chest: Blue Rare Quality; Opening the chest grants a random Rune Stone.]

"Good stuff!" Su Lie performed a Enhance on it immediately.

Buzz! After the Rune Stone Treasure Chest was promoted to a god-tier treasure chest, it could now yield a god-tier Rune Stone.

Only then did Su Lie open the Treasure Chest.

Buzz! After the Treasure Chest opened, a cluster of red light burst forth.

Su Lie saw a palm-sized turtle shell inside.

A strange Rune was inscribed on the turtle shell.

This Rune was quite complex, looking like an intricate pattern composed of numerous rings.

Su Lie took out the Eye of Identification and looked at the turtle shell.

[Space Expansion Rune Stone: god-tier Rune Stone; Once activated, it can merge with any storage equipment and expand the volumetric size of the storage space. Function: 1000x Volume Increase.]

"Holy cow! A space-type Rune Stone! This is great stuff!"

Su Lie's eyes lit up, and he immediately grabbed the ruyi pouch at his waist: "Currently, the storage pouch space inside the Shelter is sufficient, only the ruyi pouch is slightly small!"

Saying this, he directly activated the turtle shell.

The entire turtle shell emitted a bright cluster of light.

Within the light, the turtle shell merged with the Rune, transforming into a luminous magic array.

Su Lie placed the ruyi pouch onto the magic array.

Buzz! The next second, the light vanished, and a space magic array appeared on the ruyi pouch.

Su Lie immediately used the Eye of Identification to look at the ruyi pouch's panel.

He saw.

[ruyi pouch: Red God-level Quality; Space storage equipment; Internally contains a three-dimensional storage space 100 kilometers long, 100 kilometers wide, and 100 kilometers high. The space within the pouch can be opened via Spirit to store materials. (Space Expansion Rune Stone already imprinted) Special Effects: Lightness, Immortality, Automatic Ingestion/Ejection, Spacetime Freeze, Master Recognition;]

"Haha! The next time I go to the Blood Secret Realm, I must empty the entire secret realm!"

Su Lie laughed excitedly.

Just then, the golden light in the sky was gradually replaced by dim fiery red.

He looked up and saw two great suns setting in the west, and the sky was covered by layers of burning clouds.

Looking around, it seemed as if the sky and the earth were burning together.

However, dense Mist had already begun to form at the distant edges of the world.

"It's going to be dark!"

Seeing this, Su Lie immediately checked the mist clock via his connection with it.

The time displayed was 13 hours, 55 minutes, and 12 seconds.

"No rush yet!"

Su Lie stopped hesitating and turned to walk towards an area on the side.

There were two pieces of glowing, shattered mirror shards there.

Su Lie picked up the shards and checked them using the Eye of Identification.

He smiled.

[space fragment: Blue Rare Quality; Space Size: 10 meters long; 10 meters wide, 10 meters high; Functions: Storage equipment, Shelter upgrade, equipment weapons, space repair, space reinforcement, and everything related to space. Note: This space fragment cannot be used directly as storage equipment. Note: This space fragment is relatively fragile; after shattering, it can create 5 spatial rifts within a 20-meter range.]

"Now I have gathered 9 of the basic space materials required to upgrade the Shelter, just one more is needed!"

Su Lie put away the space fragment.

He searched around the meteorite but did not see any other useful resources.

Only then did he return to the area where he had previously excavated the spatial rift nexus, and using the empty space, he swung his pickaxe and began chiseling.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

The crisp sounds echoed throughout the wilderness.

The sky also darkened at this moment.

The flowing lava nearby slowly began to turn black.

A thin layer of Mist appeared in the air.

The moisture contained in the Mist rapidly fell upon encountering the high temperature, causing the surface of the sea of lava and fire to solidify.

However, the temperature in the surrounding space did not drop to 50 degrees Celsius.

Instead, it remained at around 1,000 degrees Celsius.

Time passed slowly.

By the time Su Lie chiseled out 1,000 charm stones, his surroundings were hazy with water vapor.

Because he had the Fire Element Technique protecting his body, he couldn't perceive the exact temperature outside, only discern it using the Eye of Identification.

But the Eye of Identification also couldn't distinguish whether there was more Mist or more high-temperature steam around him.

Just as he was about to continue digging, a patch of light suddenly shone in the Mist ahead of him.

Following that, a beautiful figure was walking step by step from afar.

It was a woman with long purple hair, purple skin, and a seductive, curvaceous figure.

She was wearing a pink crop top paired with denim shorts.

Su Lie couldn't help but stare blankly at this sudden exotic sight.

As he looked up seriously, he realized that the woman's appearance, which was initially blurry, slowly began to transform into a certain image from his memory.

This made Su Lie blurt out: "Medusa..."

Hee! Hee! Hee!

The woman ahead let out a pleasant, wind-chime-like laugh.

She looked earnestly at Su Lie and said: "Little Elder Brother! You've been mining for so long, you must be tired! Why don't you let Younger Sister help you?"

"As the saying goes, when men and women work together, the labor isn't tiring!"

"Little Younger Sister is stranded here, lonely and helpless. I beg Elder Brother to take me in!"

"As long as you nod, I am willing to do anything for you!"

As she spoke, a flush appeared on her cheeks.

This made her look even more alluring.

Su Lie watched, somewhat mesmerized, his eyes already filled with confusion...
