Chapter 352 Aurora... Too Similar to Earth
"What legend?"
Zhou Qing has a natural curiosity about legends. After all, in this world, the so-called legends and legends may, to some extent, record part of the real history or situations that have happened.
Mu Bing did not keep anyone in suspense. As more and more Dancing Winter Rabbits jumped out of the snow and landed on the icy lake, they began to look for their own "dance partners" or compete with each other. He slowly told everyone what he knew: "After entering the 'dance' state, the Dancing Winter Rabbits form pairs. Rumor has it that if a spirit master can hunt a pair of Dancing Winter Rabbits at the same time, the spirit rings of the two will automatically merge together to form one spirit ring."
"So outrageous?"
Tang San just felt that this legend had no credibility at all.
How can the spirit rings be integrated?
But Zhou Qing felt that this possibility existed. In fact, in Douluo Dalu 2, there was a secret method. As long as one hunted more than a hundred soul beasts of the same kind in a short period of time and triggered the fusion of their soul rings, there was a chance of getting a soul bone.
Moreover, in this day and age, there is also a secret method of fusion of rings.
From this we can see that soul rings can indeed be integrated.
Mu Bing said: "It does sound incredible, but I don't know whether it's true or not. However, in some large sects, those soul masters have a secret method to fuse their soul rings together to burst out with instant power... Perhaps, the fusion of the soul rings of the Dancing Winter Rabbit is a more natural and permanent method."
The fusion of the soul rings is just a burst of corresponding power in an instant, and the soul rings will separate afterwards.
But according to rumors, the soul rings of a pair of dancing winter rabbits that died at the "ball" will be permanently merged together.
Zhou Qing thought for a while and asked, "Are the so-called pair of dancing winter rabbits a male and a female?"
"if not?"
Mu Bing smiled and said, "Perhaps this is also a dance party for the dancing winter rabbits to choose their other half, and once they choose a dance partner on such an occasion, the dancing winter rabbits will not choose another opposite sex.
When my father was at the Soul Sect stage, he once hunted a pair of hundred-year-old Dancing Winter Rabbits, but they escaped. However, he left a knife mark on their bodies. Twenty years later, when my father reached the Soul Saint stage, he went to the Frozen Forest to hunt soul beasts. When he passed through this northern forest, he actually saw the pair of Dancing Winter Rabbits with knife marks on their bodies again, still in pairs. "
With Mu Bing using his own father as an example, the credibility is naturally greatly enhanced.
But even so, Zhou Qing did not think that the so-called "loyalty" alone could allow the soul rings of the Dancing Winter Rabbit couple to merge after their death.
There must be other factors -
As time went on, more and more dancing winter rabbits gathered on the ice lake.
Some are in pairs, and some are alone.
Those dancing winter rabbits in pairs have begun to compete for the position of leader, that is, they collide with each other to see who loses the ability to fight first.
If you accidentally hit a vital part, you may be seriously injured and on the verge of death.
The single male winter rabbits began to jump upwards continuously. The higher they jumped, the more they could attract the attention of the females.
But accidents also happen.
When one of the male winter rabbits jumped nearly three meters high and was about to attract the attention of a female winter rabbit, a white-feathered falcon flew out from the surrounding woods, and its sharp claws instantly pierced the back of the ambitious winter rabbit, carrying it quickly away from the ice lake and flying towards the woods on the other side!
"Swoosh!" A sharp arrow shot out and pierced the abdomen of the white-feathered falcon.
With a shrill cry, the white-feathered falcon fell to the shore of the lake, and its claws had already loosened the dancing winter rabbit, which still had a breath of life.
"My dear son! Let's go quickly! Kill that ninety-year-old white-feathered falcon, and you will have your first soul ring!" In the bushes by the lake, a big man put the longbow back on his back, pulled a twelve-year-old boy, and hurried to the place where the white-feathered falcon fell.
The young man was a little timid, but with the encouragement of the big man, he pierced the falcon's throat with a dagger, and then a white soul ring appeared.
The mantis stalks the cicada!
The oriole is behind!
After the "dance party" of the Dancing Winter Rabbit begins, situations such as falcons preying on the Dancing Winter Rabbit and human soul masters hunting falcons will become common.
The dancing winter rabbits were also frightened, but they did not flee in all directions. They were still competing for the position of lead dancer on the ice lake, or they were still courting mates, as if for them, this event itself was far more important than their own lives.
"Did it override your instinct to survive?"
Zhou Qing was surprised by the persistence of the Dancing Winter Rabbits, but then he shook his head and thought to himself, "In this northern forest, the Dancing Winter Rabbits can only live for a thousand years at most. They are not very smart and it is impossible for them to suppress their survival instinct, unless -"
"This grand event is an instinct with higher priority engraved in their blood!"
However, no matter what the true situation is, Zhou Qing feels that the possibility that the Dancing Winter Rabbit represents "Winter" is much greater.
The competition and killing on the ice lake are still going on.
There was a soul hunting group that acted as the oriole. After capturing the soul beasts they wanted, they also caught dozens of Dancing Winter Rabbits and prepared to return. There was an adventure group that arrived a step later and waited patiently, watching the grand event brought by the Dancing Winter Rabbits.
Gradually, until night fell, the hunting feast was not over, but the number of predators had decreased.
In the star-dotted night sky, wisps of green and blue light suddenly appeared, as if the stars were burning, or like the gauze dress of a goddess shining on the world.
The soul hunting team and adventure team members near the ice lake were all shocked by this scene; some even knelt down, believing that it was a miracle left by the true God on earth.
"I didn't expect to see Star Ripples! I'm so lucky!"
As an adult, Mu Bing was also moved after seeing the light in the night sky. "Starlight ripples appear every eleven years. In fact, they can only be seen in the far north. I didn't expect that this time the scale is so large that it can be seen even in the northern forest."
Tang San, Romantina, and Bu Yi were also moved by this magnificent scene. They even felt for the first time that gods might really exist in this world.
Where is Zhou Qing?
It can be said that this was the first time he had seen such a beautiful scene, but he knew that this was not the reflection of the goddess's gauze clothes on earth, but a natural phenomenon unique to the high magnetic region of the planet - the aurora.
The principle is that the solar wind enters the planet's magnetic field and in high-dimensional regions, it excites molecules or atoms in the upper atmosphere, producing a luminescence phenomenon.
Although it may seem inappropriate to talk about science in a world with extraordinary powers, considering that Douluo Continent is a planetary world and the outside world is a vacuum universe, then everything makes sense.
Not to mention, Mu Bing also said that this phenomenon occurs every eleven years... This made Zhou Qing recall that in his previous life, the activity cycle of sunspots and solar flares was also an eleven-year cycle.
And in this Douluo Continent, the sun and the moon are too similar to the earth...
