Chapter 663: The Holy Maiden's Pleading
Knowing the meaning of the divine soul, Li Ming and his teammates looked at each other, it seemed that they couldn't see the effect of this divine bead.
"I understand now, in order to quell the military disaster caused by the demon race, the Supreme of the Temple back then did not hesitate to use 1......00,000 divine souls to exterminate the 100,000 demon army of the demon overlord," the holy woman sighed.
"One hundred thousand divine souls...... Is this Temple Supreme really insane? Loneliness cried out.
Now that they knew what the divine soul was, in order to deal with the overlord's legions, the Templar Divine Clan actually let their 100,000 people sacrifice their lives!
"Does the Holy Maiden mean that in order to activate the power of the Divine Bead, the temple sacrificed 100,000 clansmen?" Li Ming also asked in shock.
"Not so much, the Pregnant God Pool on the Temple Mountain is a place where every person in the God Race will go when they are dying, in the Burial God Forest near the Pregnant God Pool, there are countless dead people of the God Race, although their bodies are dead, but the Divine Soul is still condensed around the Pregnant God Pool, constantly blessing the temple with divine power, the Pearl of the Water God can exert its power, it is estimated that it is the sacrifice of these countless God Souls who have died for thousands of years." The saint explained.
"It turns out that there are not so many people who died......" Li Ming and his teammates felt less terrifying.
"Although the Protoss has a long lifespan, there is also a moment of death, for thousands of years, the top of the temple is not as exaggerated as a hundred thousand divine souls, if I guessed correctly, last time in order to deal with the demon overlord, the temple supreme may have sacrificed at least tens of thousands of races to win the victory." The saint sighed.
"10,000 for 100,000, plus a demon overlord, this deal is not a loss." Fan Hua said.
"But the Protoss won't have that many people, right?" Li Ming asked curiously.
The Temple Mount is a forbidden place, and players can't enter it, and no one knows what the situation is with the Temple Race, and how many Gods live in it?
"The number of our Protoss is not large, I remember that the clansmen who live in the Divine Mountain and the Terran territory all the year round are only twenty or thirty thousand people at most." The saint replied.
"My God, taking one-third of the lives of the clansmen in exchange for 100,000 demon troops, this business doesn't seem to make much money." Avril said.
"Understood, this divine bead doesn't seem to be of much use to us." Li Ming looked at the blue divine bead in his hand, he didn't expect it to be so dangerous.
"The ancient artifact is very powerful, if you give it enough souls, you can resurrect the ancient water god for a short time, but there is only a part of the spirit of the water god in the divine bead, and the resurrected water god has no thoughts and emotions, and only obeys the orders of the owner of the divine bead, so although this thing is listed as the treasure of the temple, it is also one of the forbidden objects in the temple." The saint said.
"The Protoss is afraid that someone will kill the Protoss, so that this Divine Bead can absorb enough Divine Soul." Li Ming was surprised.
"Yes, once the Divine Bead has absorbed enough Divine Soul, few people will be able to defeat him. However, the total number of people of the Protoss is not enough to activate the Divine Orb, unless they find other Ancient Divine Souls. The saint nodded.
"I see, thank you for explaining." Li Ming smiled and thanked.
Perhaps because this divine bead belongs to the supreme treasure of the god race, the holy woman explained in great detail this time, unlike usual, she disappeared or shut up after saying a few words.
"You...... Since the Divine Bead is useless to you, I have a request, and I hope you can grant it. The holy woman suddenly lowered her head and bowed to Li Ming dignifiedly.
"What are you ......" Li Ming didn't react at once, this was the first time the Holy Maiden saluted him, you must know that this was the Holy Maiden of the Temple, and she was the top person who was about to take over the Supreme of the Temple!
For a long time, the saint has always maintained a dignified and noble image, and her personality is also very cold and arrogant, she never pretends to others, only talks to Li Ming alone, and rarely takes the initiative to talk.
It was strange that she was so formal now.
"Holy Maiden, please excuse me, if you have something to say, just say it." Li Ming said curiously.
"I want this orb, I don't know if you can give it to me for safekeeping." The holy woman said with her head bowed.
"What do you want this orb for?" Li Ming asked puzzled.
"This Divine Bead is useless in your hands, but for this seat, if you can have the Divine Bead in your hand in this current state, this seat will be more secure and free." The saint replied.
"How important is it to you?" Li Ming asked with interest.
"Yes, although the Divine Bead absorbs the Divine Soul, it also has more benefits, that is, it can help me better preserve the Divine Soul, and I can also absorb more power from the Divine Race, so that I can move around freely like that witch." The saint said enviously.
"It can be like this! With this Divine Bead, can you also wander around without worrying about your soul scattering? Li Ming asked in disbelief.
"For this seat, this divine bead can play the role of the host's body, as long as my divine soul is in the divine bead, and the divine bead is safely kept with you, this seat can not have any scruples." The saint nodded.
"Ah...... I finally understand, you plan to store your soul in the Divine Bead, and I want to help you protect the safety of the Divine Bead, so you don't have to worry about the safety of the Divine Soul......" Li Ming suddenly realized.
"Yes, I wonder if you agreed to my request?" The Holy Maiden saluted again.
Now the situation is very clear, as long as she agrees to the request of the Holy Maiden, she can obtain the protection of the divine power of the Divine Bead, and she can no longer worry about the safety of the Divine Soul......
Although there is no host resurrection, she is safe.
Unexpectedly, it was actually such a solution, Li Ming had been worried about how to help the Holy Maiden find a suitable host for the resurrection......
"No problem, since the Holy Maiden spoke, this Divine Bead is useless to me, and lending it to you to temporarily preserve the Divine Soul can be regarded as having some use, of course I will not be stingy, but the Holy Maiden, please think about it carefully, in case there will be any trouble, please let me know in advance." Li Ming nodded.
"You really said yes...... There are troubles, that is, this divine bead can only be owned by this seat in the future, and I can't continue to absorb other divine souls, otherwise my soul will be absorbed by the divine bead! The saint said.
"Don't worry, for your safety, I won't use the Divine Orb anymore." Li Ming nodded.
"Thank you...... the saint raised her head, and on her beautiful face, a pair of starry eyes suddenly revealed a trace of gratitude.
He had been with the Holy Maiden for a long time, but Li Ming had never seen the Holy Maiden show such an expression, and from this moment, he felt that the relationship with this cold Holy Maiden seemed to have become closer.
"The Divine Bead is here, what does the Holy Maiden need to do?" Li Ming immediately raised his hand and displayed the blue pearl in front of the saint's eyes.
"It's very simple, my divine soul will be separated from the Zhentian Seal in a while, and you will understand when the time comes." The saint smiled.
Swish!
Suddenly, a golden light flashed, and the body of the saintess turned into a ball of golden light suspended in mid-air, and a golden seal appeared.
Immediately after that, a pillar of golden light shrouded Li Ming's hand, and the golden light quickly flew into the pearl, and the golden seal dissipated, leaving only the golden square seal flying into Li Ming's package, and the blue pearl in his hand instantly shone with golden light......
