Chapter 34: The Truth
In front of a huge water mirror, Li Xiuyuan stared at the picture on the water mirror motionlessly, his brows were furrowed, and his face was very bad.
"Why her?"
Li Xiuyuan expressionlessly questioned the grim-faced middle-aged man in a dark shirt and a high crown of hair beside him.
That person is the master of this Canglan Domain, Shark Cang.
Ignoring the anger in Li Xiuyuan's eyes, Shark Cang replied in a deep voice:
"You came here to find me for that little girl's spiritual root, I can give her that thing, but she also has to do me a favor."
After Shark Cang finished speaking, his eyes flashed, and he turned to look at Yan Su, who was still unclear about the situation behind his daughter in the water mirror.
Yin and Yang Spiritual Root, the Destined Man......
"She's just a little kid, what can she do? What you can't even do, expect someone who has only cultivated the third layer of qi? ”
Li Xiuyuan saw that he was unmoved, and he didn't feel that he was also rushing to his head, and he wanted to slam the door immediately, but he was stopped halfway.
"What the hell do you want! Shark Cang? ”
Li Xiuyuan was controlled by the water prison, his hands and feet were nailed to the wall, he wanted to break free, but found that he couldn't mobilize a trace of aura.
Damn it!
Li Xiuyuanqi's teeth itched, but there was nothing he could do, he was now just an out-of-body incarnation, except that his spiritual power was at the top of this world, but his physical quality was far away, he was just a simple incarnation of spiritual power.
For the handcuffs that controlled his limbs, they used special ores that suppressed spiritual power to completely restrain him!
"Only she can find that opportunity in this matter."
Not only for his daughter, but also for the survival of the entire sea realm, and even the Canglan Domain.
"Why the hell is she ......?"
Li Xiuyuan's mood calmed down, and he re-examined this old friend who was familiar with him before, but now he can't understand it.
He didn't know what had happened to him in the hundreds of years since he was gone, and he hadn't heard anything big about anything big in the Canglan Domain when he was traveling.
Just when he wanted to break his head and didn't come up with a reason, he imperceptibly noticed that something was wrong.
Li Xiuyuan looked at the shark Cang, whose body was trembling slightly, and raised his head violently in disbelief,
"Your cultivation!?"
In the past few hundred years, the cultivation of Shark Cang has not increased but decreased!
"What the hell is going on? Shark Cang! Answer me. ”
Li Xiuyuan's eyes lit up.
As an out-of-body incarnation with independent consciousness, Shark Cang is his first and only friend on this continent, and his importance to him is naturally self-evident.
Previously, because of the disparity in strength between him and Yan Su, if he really targeted Yan Su, he could easily kill her, plus he didn't know the truth, and he was reckless as a protector.
Now calm down, think about it carefully, from the first meeting, the other party directly brought him into this room without saying a word, and also set a ban to prevent him from going out, but did not fight him.
Based on what he knew about him in the past, this was already very unusual.
Blame him for being negligent for a while, and only now realize that something is wrong.
"Yi'er was chosen as a sacrifice by the Land of the Glowing Sea."
Shark Cang glanced at Li Xiuyuan deeply, and only after a while suppressed his voice and said in a deep voice.
"The Land of the Glowing Sea! Isn't that your holy place? Also, it is not the place where the mermaids will return after death, how can it be possible to sacrifice to the living souls? ”
"How can the Holy Land, which has always been safe and secure, suddenly become active and ask for sacrifices to the living spirits?"
Li Xiuyuan was shocked when he heard this, as a holy place that has nurtured a piece of water and soil for generations, he has always thought that he is guarding the ancestors from generation to generation, and he has never heard of any living people, and he still asks his descendants to sacrifice.
"Yi'er is the 372nd generation saintess of the merman race, her mother is the saint of the previous generation, and the saint daughter of the merman race has always been born from the Holy Spirit land."
"The Holy Maiden is the outward manifestation of the Land of Luminous Spirits, and it is also its "heart", and after the death of a generation of Saints, a new Saintess will be born in the Land of Luminous Spirits. ”
"And Yi'er, a child born from the combination of a saint and an ordinary merman, should be the same as before, just an ordinary merman, but Yi'er is different from others, she is born with a fatal flaw."
Speaking of this, Li Xiuyuan could already feel the grief that Shark Cang had endured, and the shock brought to him by that unknown event.
"Yi'er only has half of the shark beads! Do you know what that means? She can only live for more than a hundred years at most, and the merman is not the same as a human, and a hundred years of the merman means that she is only four or five years old as a human. ”
"Her mother, unable to accept such a reality, ran to seek the help of the ancestors, only the Holy Maiden can enter the Land of the Glowing Spirit, and only the Holy Maiden has the ability to communicate with the ancestors."
"I don't know what the ancestor said, but I know that since then, she has been going back and forth between the holy land and the palace, and just like that, one day, she disappeared, and Yi'er's shark beads are inexplicably complete."
When Li Xiuyuan heard this, his heart was also greatly touched, and in order for his daughter to survive, he actually exchanged his shark beads for her, one life for another.
"I thought Caiyi had exchanged her shark beads for Yi'er with a secret method, but wasn't it?"
"The truth of this matter, I still knew when Yi'er was two hundred years old, after Caiyi disappeared, everyone thought that she died because she gave the shark bead to Yi'er, and a new saint will be born soon."
"However, people waited and waited, waited and waited for a long time, and the new saintess did not appear, until, one day, Yi'er lost her mind like crazy and kept running in the direction of the holy land, and in the dark, as if I had been instructed by something, I let Yi'er run like that, and watched her run into the holy land."
"When she comes out again, she will be the new saint."
"But the shark beads in Yi'er's body were split into two and became two complete and identical shark beads."
Speaking of this, as if realizing some unlikely idea, Li Xiuyuan looked at Shark Cang's slightly decadent face, choked in his throat, and finally didn't speak.
"Yi'er and her mother plucked the buds that the Glowing Spirit Tree used to breed the saint and melted them into her shark beads, and at the same time she also melted her own shark beads into it, in order to alleviate the flower buds' rejection of Yi'er shark beads."
"Yi'er is not an orthodox saint, she is powerless to resist those evil and filthy things, they are endless, pervasive, the sea realm is in a desperate situation, and the Canglan Domain is also affected by them, and only by using Yi'er as a sacrifice and sacrificing to the Radiant Spirit Tree can a new saint be born."
"Of course we are reluctant, but helplessly, Yi'er Xu was called by the Radiant Spirit Tree because of that bud, and no one in the clan, except for me and her brother, cared about her life or death."
"She was snatched away, and the Glowing Spirit Tree absorbed her, but she couldn't move her because of the shark beads left to her by Yi'er's mother, but she fell into an illusion, and if she couldn't break it from within, then she could only be completely absorbed in the end."
"In this way, do you know why I want your Yin Yang Spiritual Root's apprentice to connect with Yi'er's Spiritual Sea, and the source power contained in her spiritual root is the most suitable product of these purest spiritual powers."
"Please, Xiu Yuan."
Shark Cang's voice had already begun to choke, his clenched fists were covered with green tendons, and the intense grief in his eyes could not be suppressed, which moved Li Xiuyuan as well, and finally let out a long sigh.
"If this apprentice of mine has three longs and two shorts, I will never let you go!"
