So strictly speaking, the heart was still in its original place; a method similar to spatial transfer was used. The space where the heart existed was entirely moved to another location.
"No wonder they need the Blood of Heart Vessels...."
Mu You instantly understood the significance of that thief’s task.
Since the heart was merely spatially transferred and was still functioning normally, the Blood of Heart Vessels would always flow towards it. Therefore, if they secured the Blood of Heart Vessels, they could have a chance of finding the heart of the Octopus King by following the direction of the blood droplets.
The only strange thing for Mu You was, considering the Octopus King is such a powerful creature, what kind of individual could remove its heart?
Mu You took out the Magic Bottle for blood sucking and used the Levitation Spell to send it above the primary heart, in front of the most robust blood vessel.
The Magic Bottle automatically adhered to the vessel wall and began gradually extracting a bit of blood and breath from it.
This process was clearly lengthy, with only a layer of blood fog forming after a long while. But Mu You wasn’t in a rush, after all, they had other business to tend to.
"Everyone look around, those Elf Clan members should be buried nearby...."
Mu You immediately started directing the group’s actions.
Over at Little Ya’s side, all the summoned creatures were called forth. Mu You and Lin Xue also called a few summoned beasts to help. A group of summoned creatures instantly began sniffing around like police dogs, searching the surrounding space for the target.
However, it turned out that a group of summoned beasts was less useful than Little Ya alone.
"Boss, I feel something, someone is here!"
Little Ya suddenly raised her hand to signal everyone.
As an elf, Little Ya has a faint sensory feedback to her fellow kind, hence why Mu You purposely brought her along.
Mu You arrived at the spot indicated by Little Ya and used his Electric Arc Sword to cut downwards step by step.
After cutting almost two meters deep, indeed, a human figure’s silhouette faintly appeared beneath the severed flesh layer.
Mu You quickly widened the gap, soon after, he and Little Ya worked together to rescue the person deeply embedded within the flesh wall.
The first person they found was a female elf. Her clothing had already been eroded beyond recognition and her condition was incredibly gaunt; so thin that one could see her bones.
"It’s Sasha! She’s still alive!"
The soul of the Old Elf in the bottle was suddenly excited, urgently prompting Mu You to track her down.
"You managed to recognize her!"
Mu You was impressed. This elf was so malnourished that her appearance had changed entirely, yet his name recognition was immediate, showing how close they once were.
Mu You reached out to tear away all the umbilical cords on the elf then called Ye Rumeng to see if she could awaken the other party.
Little Ya understood why Mu You had brought her today, so she obediently stepped forward, took a deep breath, placed her hands on the female elf’s forehead, and quietly invoked Sasha’s name in her mind.
For the first few seconds, there was no response, but after a few moments, the elf’s placid face suddenly contorted as though she was enduring immense pain.
Simultaneously, the whole fleshy space began to tremble and a familiar whale cry echoed from afar. On the ground, countless umbilical cords rapidly sprouted everywhere.
"Is the Octopus King waking up?"
Unexpectedly for Mu You, the previous steps hadn’t triggered any issues, but surprisingly, awakening Sasha incited such a significant reaction from the Octopus King.
He hastily took out several bottles of Pink Potion, uncapped them, and poured their contents onto the emerging tentacles.
Only after draining two bottles of the Pink Legend Potion and one Epic Potion into the creature did the turmoil inside the Octopus King finally subside.
