Cha!
The Thousand Army Saber was unsheathed and it sounded out. With a flash of the blade’s beam, it cut through the Thousand Feet Black Silkworm’s head. Before the Thousand Feet Black Silkworm could spit out its toxins, the huge Yuan Qi that had been condensed in the Thousand Army Saber exploded its head.
The shrills that the Thousand Feet Black Silkworm was making seemed like its throat had been pressed as the sounds came to a stop.
Its body twitched vigorously a few times before collapsing to the ground.
Yi Yun’s entire attack process had been done in one fell swoop. He did not give the Thousand Feet Black Silkworm any respite!
Seeing that the Thousand Feet Black Silkworm was already dead, Yi Yun recalled the heart sutras of the ‘Ten Thousand Beast Totem’.
To condense an Aspect Totem, one had to first condense a beast mark from a desolate beast’s corpse. A beast mark was the condensation of a recently-killed desolate beast’s life essence and Power of Desolates!
Under normal circumstances, a desolate beast’s life essence and Power of Desolates would slowly dissipate into the surroundings after it was killed.
The energy within the blood and flesh would dissipate the fastest while the energy within the bones dissipated slowly. It could then be used by Desolate Heaven Masters to refine desolate bone relics.
Warriors who were not Desolate Heaven Masters had great difficulty in using this energy.
Of course, after a warrior cultivated a totem mystic technique, he could usually borrow the worldly laws to a certain extent. They could make the desolate beast’s life essence and Power of Desolates synergize with their own murderous Qi by slowly extracting that energy.
A warrior’s murderous Qi could form such synergy only with the desolate beasts killed by the warrior himself.
By using the totem mystic technique, these separated energies would slowly form a light blob, and this light blob would have the imprint of the dead desolate beast within it.
This was the beast mark.
Actually, if a warrior were to use a totem mystic technique to condense a beast mark, he would only be able to obtain a tiny portion of the desolate beast’s energy.
Hence, even if the beast mark was extracted, this kind of dead desolate beast could still be exchanged for dragon scale runes. Using the desolate bones from such a desolate beast to refine a relic would not had too bad an effect.
