Chapter 278: The Fountain of Eternal Life
This is really a sudden change, and even a little abrupt, no one thought that the end of the delicious ocean would be such a complex conflict of interest.
Li Qi has no time to care about his reward, he is even willing to come to the banquet of the century to help them cook for free, just hope that everyone can live in peace, if these big guys fight, the other races will definitely not have a good life, let alone humans, which may be devastating to mankind.
Unfortunately, this is not something he can control.
It seems that the days of peace are coming to an end!
Li Qi looked up at the clear blue sky, and sighed in his heart.
Thump!
Li Qi turned his eyes and saw Peng Peng sitting on the ground, patting his chest vigorously, muttering to himself, "Scared me to death, scared me to death." ”
Li Qi, who came back to his senses, found that all the guests had left, leaving only some long right and one tail to clean up.
"Puffy! What the hell is going on? ”
Richie asked Ponpoon.
Peng Peng looked at Li Qi, and immediately shook his head and said, "This... I don't know, it's not something we can inquire about, you... You'd better not hear what you do. ”
When Li Qi heard this, he couldn't help frowning.
......
"Yuemu, I ......."
Su Nu looked at Chang Xi with a hint of fear.
Chang Xi said lightly: "It's none of your business, whether there is this matter or not, Candle Jiuyin will find an excuse to target us, he doesn't care about Rennu at all, but the interests of their royal family." ”
Speaking of this, there was a trace of confusion in her eyes, "But this is a little sudden, that Candle Jiuyin has always been calculating, calm in the face of things, why does this time seem so sudden, there is no warning in advance, there must be a reason behind this." ”
Kunlun Mu on the side said: "No matter what the reason behind it is, since he said this, then they will definitely not give up." ”
Chang Xi said lightly: "And if we compromise on this, then maybe in the future, if we drink saliva, they will all be dissatisfied." ”
Qinghou said coldly: "You don't want to compromise. ”
Chang Xi smiled and nodded.
......
"Do you know who captured you at the time?"
Houtu looked at Rennu with a serious face.
Ren Nu said aggrievedly: "I really don't know, I only know that the white tree was cast with a demon spell, so that we can't contact the creatures in the outside world. ”
Hou Tu said: "Then have you told you about this to the Blood Gold Prince?" ”
"Nope." The girl shook her head.
Houtu nodded and said, "Remember, don't pursue this matter again." ”
The girl frowned slightly, and said, "Spirit Lord, sometimes I really don't understand, why do we have to tolerate them everywhere? ”
Hou Tu only said: "We spirit race treat any living creature like this, if you have suspicion and resentment in your heart, then you are not qualified to become a spirit master." ”
......
"Why?"
Shui Qilin frowned and stared directly at Candle Jiu***: "Why is it that you don't even discuss such a big matter with us, so you make your own decisions." ”
Candle Jiuyin asked rhetorically, "Don't you know about the Fountain of Eternal Life?" ”
Shui Qilin said: "Of course I know, but knowing and saying it are two different things. Also, did you consult with the king beforehand? ”
As soon as he finished speaking, a palace guard came over and said, "Four warriors, the king invites you to go to the palace." ”
"Got it!"
The water qilin responded, and after taking the guard away, he said to Candle Jiu**: "It seems that you didn't discuss it with the king." ”
Candle Nine**: "So what?" ”
Shui Qilin immediately said angrily: "Presumptuous, how can you treat the king like this." ”
"I only know that the respect of the king of the earth has never been given by us."
After saying that, Candle Jiuyin walked straight to the palace.
"It makes no sense."
The water unicorn said.
"Actually, ......."
Jiuying glanced at the water unicorn and said, "I'm also tired of pretending to be stupid." ”
The water qilin looked at the nine babies in surprise.
Gluttony said: "Old man, if you gave me your food just now, I might support you now, but unfortunately, it is a blind man who gave me those delicious foods, I am really sorry." ”
......
When the four major clans came to the main hall, in addition to the king of the earth, there were also Bai Ze and Tu Shan clans standing below.
"Blood Gold Prince, I wonder why you said that at the banquet of the century?"
The King of the Earth asked.
In fact, he was very entangled in his heart, because he didn't know anything about it in advance, but if he drank the Nine Yin of the Candle, then the leaders of the other races would definitely know that he didn't know about it, which would affect his authority, after all, he had just succeeded him, and the relationship between the four major clans and the king of the earth was very delicate, so he could only be slightly biased towards the Blood Gold Duke at that time and make an ambiguous attitude.
Let the guests present not know whether this was brought up by Candle Jiuyin himself, or whether they sang double reeds.
It can be seen that this king of the earth is not simple, and he has such a city at a young age.
Candle Nine**: "Because they did. ”
The King of the Earth said, "Then you should also consult with me beforehand." ”
Candle Jiu**: "I didn't consult with Wang in advance because I didn't want Wang to take this risk." ”
"Risk?"
The King of the Earth said, "What risk?" ”
"The risk of war."
"You're going to war?"
"It's not that I'm going to start a war, it's that Changxi and they have been preparing for war all along."
Candle Jiu**: "In fact, everyone understands in their hearts that Chang Xi is angry about the defeat of the original battle, although they are ostensibly resentful of the Spirit Clan, but in fact they are disobedient to our royal family, because they think that in the first war, their defeat was mainly due to the talent of the Great Wilderness Clan, as well as the betrayal of their own clan, rather than being defeated by our royal clan, therefore, Chang Xi will definitely make a comeback and be ashamed."
In fact, the facts have long proved that in recent eras, they have continued to do some things that are free from the edge of the contract, in order to test us, but we are still deceiving ourselves, compromising again and again, and now the appearance of the fountain of eternal life will break the balance between us, and even the balance of the race, if they really get eternal life, who does not want to live forever, then all races will follow them, including our royal family.
Therefore, this war is inevitable, but the king of the earth has been a symbol of peace and domination for a long time, so I don't want the king of the earth to start this war. ”
Bai Ze said: "Although the Blood Gold Duke is reasonable, I don't think things have come to that point yet, war can be mentioned, but it is not necessary to really start a war, we can put pressure on them first, so that they will no longer create the fountain of eternal life." ”
Candle Jiuyin smiled and said: "If you have this set of works, then it will not be where it is today, then Chang Xi is best at two sides and three swords, if you go to talk to her, she will definitely talk to you, and then keep going back and forth with you, delaying, but behind the scenes, he will continue to create the Fountain of Eternal Life, she has already played with us many times, unless the army of our kingdom enters their territory, otherwise, I will not trust Chang Xi in any promises." ”
Tu Shan said, "Blood Gold Prince, do you know how much loss this war will cause our kingdom to suffer? ”
Candle Jiuyin sneered and said: "I only know that our royal family rose in the flames of war, and now you go to see those royal families outside, lingering in the love hall, echo hole, and the hall all day long, without any fighting spirit, if this continues, sooner or later, our royal family will be driven out of here, and in this, you nine tails are really indispensable." ”
Tu Shanshi frowned, snorted, and finally endured it.
The King of the Earth suddenly sat back and said lightly, "Blood Gold Prince, have you forgotten the lesson of the Seventh Race?" ”
Candle Jiuyin was silent for a while, and said, "King, it's not that I'm going to start a war, but that the war is already coming to us. ”
Speaking of this, he sighed and said, "Okay, let Moon Jae talk to them first, my request is very simple, within one jiazi, stop all research and development on the Fountain of Eternal Life, and destroy all the current Fountain of Eternal Life, this is not too much, although the current Fountain of Eternal Life cannot make them achieve immortality, but they can transform a large number of perfect demon clans, which will definitely harm the vital interests of our kingdom, and we can no longer continue to pretend that nothing has happened." ”
The King of the Earth pondered for a moment, then looked at Bai Ze again.
Bai Ze nodded slightly.
......
"Fountain of Eternal Life?"
Hanying looked at Li Qi in surprise and said, "How do you know about this fountain of eternal life?" ”
Li Qi said: "I just heard about it at the banquet, what is this fountain of eternal life? It sounds like it's amazing. ”
"It can't be."
Han Ying said: "The Spirit Clan and our Demon Clan are very secretive about the Fountain of Eternal Life, and I only learned about it by extreme chance. ”
Li Qi snorted: "Do you think that the royal family is all stupid, such a powerful thing, how can they not know at all, the king of the earth and the four major war clans have long known." ”
"Really?"
"How else would I know."
Hanying was silent for a moment, sighed softly, and said, "The Fountain of Eternal Life is actually just a failed experiment. ”
Li Qi was stunned and said, "Failed experiment? ”
Hanying nodded and said, "Since you all know about the Fountain of Eternal Life, then you should know that in fact, the Spirit Clan has always been pursuing eternal life. ”
"I know that." Li Qi said: "But can the Fountain of Eternal Life really enable them to reach the realm of eternal life? ”
"Of course not, if it could, it wouldn't be a failed experiment."
Hanying shook his head and said, "The Spirit Clan has always believed that they can use the aura of all the spirits of heaven and earth to maintain their own lives in order to achieve eternal life. Therefore, they have been trying their best to collect the aura, but in the end it has not succeeded, although this method can help them prolong their lives, but it has never been able to achieve eternal life.
And in the process of collecting, they found that many beasts contained a large amount of spiritual energy in their bodies, and even some flowers and plants contained a large amount of spiritual energy, and they could have understood the language of all spirits, so they began to try to teach those beasts how to cultivate the spiritual energy in their bodies, and thus our demon clan was born. As long as you have a little talent, it is not very difficult to cultivate into an ordinary demon, but if you want to become a perfect demon clan, you must have extremely high talent, and the process is also very slow, so the number of perfect demon clans at that time was very small.
But in recent eras, they have made a great breakthrough in collecting aura, and then the fountain of eternal life appeared, in fact, the fountain of eternal life is to use the collected aura, according to a certain formula, prepared together, and then compressed into a kind of spiritual spring water, but unfortunately this spring water still can't bring them eternal life, they still failed in the end, however, they found that the spiritual spring water can accelerate the transformation of the demon race. ”
Li Qi was surprised: "Accelerate the transformation of the perfect demon clan? ”
Han Ying nodded and said: "They will first teach us some simple cultivation methods, let us become ordinary demons, and then let us drink the spiritual spring water, because the spiritual spring water is originally made with spiritual energy, so that we can immediately become a perfect demon clan without cultivation, and have great power, but there is a drawback in this, because the spiritual energy in our body is not obtained by our own cultivation, but by relying on spiritual spring water, so after a long time, the spiritual energy in our body will slowly overflow into the body, or be consumed, Therefore, we have to keep replenishing the spiritual spring water, and if we don't replenish it in time, we will be tormented to death by pain. It was because I knew this secret in advance that I didn't want to become a perfect demon and was finally kicked out. ”
"I see."
Li Qi nodded slightly, and suddenly asked, "Is that a way to say that if anyone wants to destroy the Fountain of Eternal Life, your demon clan will definitely not agree." ”
Hanying nodded, "Of course. ”
That's too bad! Li Qi said secretly.
