Chapter 1398: It's even more difficult

The atmosphere fell silent for a moment.

After a long time, the King of the Corpse Clan slowly spoke, "You shouldn't be just the Sect Master of the Fire Refining Sect, right?"

"If you want me to be honest about my identity, do you have to show some sincerity?" Yu Ling said.

The king of the corpse clan said calmly: "It is a matter of my clan's secrets, and I can't divulge too much until I am completely sure of friend or foe. ”

"If I were a lackey of the two spirit clans, would I still talk nonsense with you? Anyway, if you don't say it, I can roughly guess that this well is not a thing of the Yan clan, but ...... A curse?" said Yu Ling unhurriedly.

The king of the corpse clan did not say a word, as if he had acquiesced in the identity of the Yan clan.

"Your Excellency had better think about whether you want to keep your allies out, of course, the allies I am talking about here are not the unequal relationship that they used to be, because the big alliance behind me is enough to be on an equal footing with the Avatars, or even surpass. Yuling said.

The king of the corpse clan suddenly asked, "Are there really so many people in this world who are not afraid of death?" I thought that few people dared to resist the two spirit clans. ”

"That's because Your Excellency lives in a corner of the Dengyun Star and doesn't understand the changes in the outside world. For example, the Phantom Clan has broken the seal and walked out of the Ancestral Star. Yuling said lightly.

"The two spirit clans turned a deaf ear to this?" The king of the corpse clan was stunned, and seemed to feel a little unbelievable.

"Because they are not united in the first place, for more than 10,000 years, although they have tried their best to maintain peace, but in the same Daoyu Galaxy, even if more resources are squandered, such a contradiction is doomed to make it impossible for them to join forces against the enemy as they once did. What's more, after being in a high position for a long time, they feel that the Phantom Spirit Clan is still weak, so they might as well use it as a chess piece to test the opponent's old bottom. ”

"It's playing with fire. The king of the corpse clan said calmly.

"Those few powerhouses at the peak of the Dao Realm don't think so, they feel that everything is under control. ”

"It turns out that the two great spirit clans have also decayed. The king of the corpse clan didn't know what he was pondering, Yu Ling felt that the other party was a little too cautious, but maybe it was because the psychological shadow brought to them by the two spirit clans was too heavy.

Fortunately, the king of the corpse clan finally made a decision, and said neatly: "We used to be the Yan clan, and we are also the most special clan among the five major ethnic groups in the Western Realm, because we were born with an extremely pure and powerful spirit, and even when we were young, we would have obstacles in all aspects such as speaking and walking because of our strong soul and weak body. ”

"But since the ancestors of our clan jointly created a set of cultivation secrets suitable for our clan, and imitated the five spirit clans to build a similar awakened blood pool, we have embarked on the path of soul and body cultivation, and the cultivation speed will not be much slower than other races, and the Yan clan has risen from this. ”

"At that time, we were actually on the same starting line as the Spirit Clan, but their development speed was too fast, just like the darlings of the heavens, whether it was cultivation or breaking through the realm, they were much faster than ordinary people. So gradually, a situation was formed in which the five major spirit clans jointly managed the three major galaxies, until the fall of the Xuanling Spirit Emperor and the outbreak of the five clans' great scuffle. ”

"The two great spirit clans became the ultimate victors, but they did not have the grace of victors, only as savage as bandits and bandits, because the war had caused them to lose too many cultivators and resources, so they were eager to make up for the void through other means, so that many things that they had not valued suddenly became precious. ”

"Although our clan escaped the great melee of the five clans, they did not avoid this catastrophe after all, because they set their sights on our clan's sacred relic, Yanbi, or children often like to call it red jade. ”

"This is passed down from generation to generation from the hands of the ancestors, the origin of the holy relic has evolved into several contradictory legends, but its importance has not diminished in the slightest, if the newborn of the clan can get the blessing of Yan Bi when he awakens the blood pool and is reborn, then he will definitely become the mainstay of our clan in the future. It can be said that after a long period of time, Yanbi has been closely related to our clan fortunes. ”

"So when the two great spirit clans found the star where we were at the time, and made our whole clan surrender and sacrifice the flames, all the clansmen were furious. ”

The Corpse Clan King paused for a few seconds, and finally said blankly, "I'm sorry, I don't want to talk about these things, too strong negative emotions won't do me any good." ”

Yu Ling took over the conversation: "Then the result is that you have changed from the Yan clan to the corpse clan?"

The king of the corpse clan said lightly like an outsider: "Yanbi was taken away by them, and they still want to completely destroy our Yan clan, so they used the hell well as a medium to cast a curse that will not be eliminated for eternity." So the clansmen all died of extinction, but they did not expect that although the body was destroyed, the spirit of our clan could not enter the netherworld. ”

"Some of the clansmen survived, and they hastily took away some of the humans in the state of lonely ghosts, but those physical bodies were decaying at a very fast rate, because the curse was rooted in the spirit, and we were already dead in the eyes of the Heavenly Dao. In the end, we could only parasitize on the well-preserved corpse, forcibly opening up a completely new path of cultivation. ”

And so we survived, and we are alive to this day. ”

There was a hint of madness in the calm tone of the corpse king, it was a determination to fight fate to the end even in the abyss of despair.

"......" Yuling's heart was shocked, and he didn't know how to say for a while.

Whether it is the Yan clan or the corpse clan, they are always them, even if they have to be accompanied by death, even if they have to survive in the world as a "dead man", this tenacious race has gone through more than 10,000 years after all.

The king of the corpse clan suddenly sighed: "However, it will still be a little lonely, revenge is too far away, I don't have such great ambition for the time being, as long as I can unlock the curse and restore my clan to its original appearance, it is my most important goal at this stage." ”

"Didn't you just say that the curse will never be removed?" asked Yu Ling tentatively.

The king of the corpse clan said with some sarcasm: "Originally, this was the case, but there is no curse that time cannot erase, and the person who planted the curse back then has long since died." What's more, our clan has been trying to destroy the well for so many years, and although it has not been able to do so until now, it has made some other progress. ”

His tone was extremely serious: "If we want to break the curse, we must find a power that is above the Void Soul Realm and crush it from the level, so when we hear about the existence of the Spirit, it becomes our only hope, because it is on the level...... is immortal. ”

"Does it have to be Yanluo? can't it be some other artifact?" Yu Ling said in surprise.

"Because the curse is at the soul level, due to the particularity of our race, we can barely maintain the activity of the spirit and achieve a symbiosis with the curse. But our souls also age very quickly, and now we only have a lifespan of more than a hundred years, and it is difficult to even reach the immortal realm. ”

Yu Ling's heart suddenly changed, no wonder the corpse transformation clan was obviously out of the sight of the two spirit clans, and more than 10,000 years had passed, and there was still no existence in the Chaos Realm, because time was too tight.

"So the Well can be moved, right?, then why do you stay in Ascending Cloud Star?" Yu Ling asked casually.

"Because I finally found this treasure land, even if I didn't find Yanluo, the resources here are also very attractive, the clansmen are tired, and they want to find a place to settle down, it just so happens that there is an independent small world here, which is very suitable as a base, just let the clansmen of the immortal realm go out to find Yanluo. ”

"You should know how unlikely it is to find the Spirit. Yuling couldn't help but say.

The king of the corpse clan was very calm: "I know, but so what? We can survive, it is a near-miracle thing, as long as we are alive, maybe we can create another miracle." ”

This is probably what you know you can't do.

"I've finished talking about my people, it's your turn. The king of the corpse clan said again.

"I'm afraid what I'm going to say will be very complicated, so let's start with the point that Your Excellency is most concerned about - the situation in the outside world. ”

......

The conversation lasted three full hours, and both sides got the information they wanted.

It wasn't until Yu Ling finished talking about the recent changes in the northern realm that he casually threw out the topic: "Since the Dark Well is a cursed thing, if you take it away, will it have any effect on you?"

The king of the corpse clan did not realize the meaning of Yu Ling's words: "Taking it away will not weaken the curse, but will bring ruin to our clan, even if you want to destroy it, you have to be very cautious." ”

"And can it really lead to the Netherworld?"

"I don't know, I've never seen it open a portal to the Netherworld anyway, and it might need some kind of opportunity. "The Avatar King is not interested in this, because once they enter the Netherworld, they may not be able to return.

"Can I take a look at the Well?" Yu Ling hesitated for a long time, and finally said bluntly.

"What's so nice about this, do you want to go to the Netherworld?" said the corpse clan king Shanghu suspiciously.

"I have an ally who needs to go to the Netherworld to find someone. ”

"There are no living people in the Netherworld. ”

"But that man has transcended life and death. ”

"......" The Corpse Clan King was silent for a while, and just when Yu Ling thought he would refuse again, the latter spoke: "You can take a look, because after a long time, you will be eroded and assimilated by the death qi." ”

"Thank you. ”

Yu Ling didn't actually have much joy, but the more she thought about it, the more she felt a headache.

Although he really wanted to hold the handle of Tiansha, but listening to the meaning of the king of the corpse clan, if the hell well was taken away, they would most likely be wiped out, which seriously exceeded Yuling's bottom line.

After all, this is no longer a matter of being a robber, this is extermination, and the nature is completely different.

Originally, he still wanted to snatch someone else's treasure from the town, or give some other compensation, but now it's okay, although the well is a curse, but the consequences seem to be more serious, and he can't compensate at all.

Is it going to be all over the world looking for a miracle in the future? Then this matter will be postponed indefinitely.
