Chapter 22: Surrender or Die
At this moment, the entire Giethoorn Lake became as silent as death.
Because this scene is so shocking, too incredible, enough to make everyone present dare not believe their ears.
Xia Sheng was the first to react, he secretly took two steps back to the right, and asked Shui Er in a low voice, "Did you bring a lock spirit ring with you this trip?"
"Huh?" Shui Er obviously hadn't come back to his senses yet, and he didn't hear the meaning of Xia Sheng's words for a while.
"Ah what, Brother Dali and Xiao'e in the field today, including me, are all martial cultivators, only you, as a spirit master, don't you carry a lock spirit ring with you?"
"The belt is ......" Shui Er pulled back her sleeves with some hesitation, and on her white arm, a fluorescent bracelet was being set.
Xia Sheng glanced at it, and immediately looked happy, and said: "Fortunately, you are not too stupid, you know that you have to bring a general-level lock spirit ring, so why don't you hurry up and lock that spirit snake?"
Shui Er's face was full of embarrassment, and he said hesitantly: "You, do you want me to subdue that spirit snake?"
Xia Sheng frowned lightly and said, "What, you don't want to?"
Shui'er shook his head: "It's not that I don't want to, but ......"
Looking at Shui'er's appearance of wanting to speak and stopping, Xia Sheng couldn't help but feel a tightness in his heart.
Although on weekdays, he always secretly scolded Shui Er's brain for being kicked by a donkey and having no eyesight, but in fact, Xia Sheng knew better than anyone that this girl was clever and would never make a mistake at such an important juncture.
It is said that people in martial arts cultivate perseverance and talent, and spiritual cultivators are the first priority of chance and luck.
But anyone who is a spirit master will not miss it, why is Shui Er pushing back?
The sevenfold realm of the spiritual path, one realm and one heaven, every other realm, can one more spiritual aperture be opened and the new spiritual object can be integrated into one's own body.
At the beginning, the soul was melted when he had just entered the spirit realm, and if he wanted to obtain the second spirit pattern, he needed to wait until the time to be promoted to the spirit general, and so on, and then the remaining two chances were in the spirit emperor realm and the spirit saint realm respectively!
For the vast majority of spiritual cultivators in the world today, in their lifetime, they can only fuse four spiritual objects in their bodies at most!
This is why Qin Yan and Shui Er are both spirit masters, but only one spirit beast can accompany them.
Because if they want to open the second spiritual aperture, they need to take a step closer and break through the spirit realm.
This is also why, the imperial level is the most important watershed between martial cultivation and spiritual cultivation, because before the imperial level, spiritual cultivation can only control the two spirit beasts to fight, but after reaching the imperial level, they can conclude a blood contract with the third spirit beast and achieve the true unity of body and spirit!
Therefore, for those who are powerful in the spiritual path, they have already set strict development goals for themselves as early as the beginning of the long cultivation path.
Including selecting those spirit beasts with the most potential to fuse, and planning the future evolution direction of each spirit beast in advance, in addition, it is also necessary to pay attention to the compatibility of attributes between each spirit beast.
It's all about the university.
The world's most famous spiritual object study master, the branch director of the Spring and Autumn Academy, Wei Qiuyue, is the leader of those who specialize in this theoretical research.
I don't know how many heirs of wealthy families will have a great honor to receive Dean Wei's guidance when they have just opened their spiritual apertures.
However, in an instant, Xia Sheng had already guessed the reason for Shui Er's hesitation, and couldn't help but say in a deep voice: "The master spirit contained in your body before, it is a blood coral of water attribute, although I don't know if it can have a complementary effect with this spirit snake for the time being, but at least it will not restrain and conflict with each other, so this is not a reason for you to hesitate." The only possibility is that you have already prepared a general-level spiritual object, am I right?"
Shui'er gritted her teeth and nodded.
Seeing this, Xia Sheng couldn't help but take a deep breath, his face suddenly became extremely solemn, and he spoke again: "I don't know what the spirit you prepared is, and I don't know who captured it for you, but what I want to remind you is that this spirit snake is by no means as simple as what we have seen!"
"Spirit creatures that can speak are not uncommon in this world, but don't forget, this water snake is just a general-level spirit beast! I don't know how many spirit beasts you have seen in your life and how many legends and stories you have heard, but at least for me, with the spirituality and potential of this snake alone, it can rank among the top ten spirit creatures I have encountered in this life!"
At this time, Shui Er certainly didn't know how heavy Xia Sheng's words were, but she had to admit that she had already moved.
Xia Sheng then sighed lightly: "The so-called chance and luck are not given to you by others, but earned by yourself, with the spiritual objects that you have subdued by the lock spirit ring in your hand, you will naturally have a better tacit understanding with you in the future, I can guarantee that if you miss this opportunity, you will definitely regret it for life." ”
Speaking of which, Xia Sheng has already been regarded as benevolent and righteous, if it weren't for the fact that he hadn't opened his spiritual aperture and officially embarked on the path of spiritual cultivation, how could he give it up when he encountered such an opportunity today?
At the same time, Ye Xiao'e on the side also said softly: "Shui'er, even if you don't plan to integrate this spirit snake into the spirit aperture in the end, at least capture it first, and you can have one more choice in the future, right?"
Shui'er struggled for a moment at the end, and finally slowly strengthened her mind, she turned her head and said to Xia Sheng, "Okay, I believe you!"
With that, Shui Er took half a step forward, and with a light wave of her hand, the jade bracelet broke away from her wrist, slowly floated into the air, and then with the momentum of thunder, it went towards the tail of the spirit snake!
But who would have thought that the spirit snake, which seemed to be dying, suddenly launched a counterattack at this moment, let out a sharp roar from its mouth, and shook its tail sharply, making the lock spirit ring pounce.
"You can't be disgraced! you want me to be a servant and a slave, and there is no door!"
As he spoke, the spirit snake churned in the air, and the giant tail behind him was like a powerful whip, slamming it on the lock spirit ring, and then rushed directly towards the long knife in the hand of the rammer in a fighting posture.
Knowing that his young lady wanted to capture this spirit snake alive and fuse it into herself, she was a little restrained, and she was not careful, but she really let the spirit snake break through, and she was about to fall into the lake again.
At the same time, Shui Er had not yet broken through the Spirit Commander Realm after all, and under the desperate counterattack of the Spirit Snake, his face suddenly turned pale, and his body was a little unstable.
The lock spirit ring in the air was affected by Shui'er's mental state, and suddenly became a little shaky, and it looked like it was about to fail!
However, in the next moment, a firm palm held Shui'er's shoulder, and a sword net that was difficult to see appeared above the waves on the surface of the lake, and was hit by the spirit snake, not only did it not shatter, but fiercely ripped off a large piece of flesh and blood on the snake's body.
Under the pain of the spirit snake, a wail immediately came out of its mouth, and it struggled to escape into the air again, but it was surrounded by layers of sword nets, and when it moved slightly, it was drenched in blood!
Immediately after, Xia Sheng's voice exploded in its head lightly.
"You should know who I am, and you should know that I've never been soft-hearted, so now I'm giving you two choices, either surrender or, die!"
