Chapter 216

The soul and body have been long separated.

But need to be faithful, not add extra.

Let's translate line by line.

The soul and body have long been separated.

Literal: "The long-term separation of soul and body." Could be "The soul and body have long been separated." We'll produce: "The soul and body have long been separated."

Check: Must not add info. The Chinese says "The soul and body have long been separated." Means "The long-term separation of soul and body." Our translation: "The soul and body have long been separated." That's fine.

Or the long-term severing of the soul and the supernatural state.

Since they can 【precise·correction】 can grasp the fate's fang's extraction of life.

Then, the soul absorption of the Fate Fang being restrained by Ta Ke is not a big problem.

At most it's just a matter of how high or low the efficiency is, and how fast or slow the corrective cutting is.

Even if the current level of restraint is not very high.

Ta Ke can also upgrade Precision·Correction.

It's only 1050% for now.

Later, raising it to 1500% will only make the effect better.

Fate Fang.

In Ta Ke's hands, it will not only not become a prison that locks up Ta Ke,

but could instead become Ta Ke's 'elixir of longevity'.

Of course, exactly how it will turn out obviously still requires careful, step-by-step experimentation later.

Taking a deep breath, Ta Ke softly said.

"About 220 years old!"

This number is the lifespan Ta Ke feels for himself while holding the Fate Fang.

This lifespan figure is considerably higher than that of an ordinary third-rank transcendent.

This also relates to the top-tier materials Ta Ke used when advancing to the second and third ranks.

The vital materials used during advancement largely determine the upper limit of a transcendent's lifespan and their vitality.

And Ta Ke, Ta Ke is clearly an outstanding among peers of the same rank.

Moreover, possessing this strange forbidden item the Fate Fang will further help Ta Ke gain even more lifespan.

Others have also, one after another, obtained their own relatively suitable forbidden sealed items.

Just as Beiweis·Tuwen said.

The negative traits of these forbidden sealed items, as long as they are known and properly controlled, can still play a significant role.

Of course, if one insists on courting death.

The forbidden sealed item obviously won't indulge you.

Not long after, Ta Ke found Bajins.

Bajins was hard at work using his magical alchemy hut to store things.

Ta Ke, seeing this, also leisurely followed along in storing things.

Of course, it was about putting things into his own magical hut.

Bajins beside him paid no attention to this scene and never tried to stop it.

That Kalelu had sent out hundreds of thousands of magic gold.

How could Bajins possibly fail to guess what would happen next?

Besides, there are so many vampires outside, and even a sixth-rank top-tier bishop expert is stationed there.

If they all fled back, even he himself wouldn't believe it.

As long as someone dies.

Then there will be no one to testify against the death.

Whether one lost a million magic gold or three million magic gold,

no one knows.

At this point, the dead are more useful than the living.

In this situation, I'm afraid... other fellow dwarves in the same trade will not stop their companions from embezzling a bit more.

Anyway, this is the resource of the dwarf family.

However much they bring back belongs to the family, and they as individuals cannot receive too much reward.

"Andelie brothers!"

While they were tidying up, Bajins lowered his voice.

"They might end up selling one or two people!"

"I know."

Ta Ke said unhurriedly.

Bajins said with a slight worry: "Your rank is low, I'm worried……"

Hearing that, Ta Ke let out a light laugh.

"If they run faster than me, that's just my skill being inferior, and I can only accept it."

"But…… they want to use other means to make me take the blame!"

"Hehe……"

Ta Ke gave a faint smile.

"I just happen to lack a reason to take action!"

"Even…… I kind of look forward to seeing who would be so unwilling."

Ta Ke's words left Bajins stunned.

From the very first encounter with this "Tanilu," the other side could easily crush a third-rank transcendent despite being only over level ten.

After the great event of the Black River Valley where the promotion attempt ended in defeat, the tracks of the god-defier Ta Ke surfaced.

Later, "Tanilu" disguised himself as "Andre" and arrived at Shenglande.

Not long after, deep underground in Shenglande, a confrontation erupted between the god-defier Ta Ke and the Holy Son.

That unfathomable rune-controlling power.

That unfathomable refining ability.

Even more able to step on the skull of a third‑stage black dark dragon, the terrifying 'Andelie' who has been promoted to third stage.

How could Ba Jinsi not guess who this person who can easily change his appearance is?

With that thought, Ba Jinsi no longer had any doubts.

In the midst of his thoughts, Ba Jinsi's enlightenment deepened further.

He lowered his voice and said to Ta Ke quietly: "You, pretend more!"

Ta Ke blinked, then laughed lightly.

The greater one's courage, the greater one's estate.

Since Ba Jinsi doesn't care, Ta Ke cares even less.

The purpose of bringing the magical cottage in this time is exactly that.
