Chapter 420: If it disperses, it will become... bubbles?
Haider is panicking now.
After all, he suspected that the mermaid was targeting him.
Although it sounded like the Sea Princess wanted to seek help from a soul master whose martial soul was the Magic Cube Octopus, he also heard the entire dispute between Ariel and the Sea Princess.
Poseidon... God of the Sea
Faith Becomes God...
He knows so much, like this!
The other group of captured humans seemed to be connected with the Sea Princess' sister, and they also got the Star of the Ocean... Although Haider didn't know what the Star of the Ocean was, he guessed that it would be useless to snatch it away directly, otherwise the Sea Princess should have taken the Star of the Ocean first instead of giving them the Water-Repellent Beads to make friends with them.
But he, his son, and his crew may not be so lucky.
He thought that meeting a mermaid meant good luck, but he never expected that mermaids, and even the legendary sea god, also follow the law of the jungle.
"It doesn't matter."
Princess Hua smiled gently at Zhou Qing, "The fact that you have obtained the Ocean Star proves that you are recognized by the will of the sea. Maybe you will be able to inherit the throne of the Sea God in the future."
"Sorry, I have no interest in becoming a god." Zhou Qing shook his head. "Can you take us back to Hanhai City?"
"of course can."
The Sea Princess smiled and said, "However, it is not easy to come to this underwater world. It would be unreasonable not to have some fun. As the owner of this icy sea, I must show my hospitality as a host no matter what."
Then, without waiting for Zhou Qing and others to say anything, he arranged for several mermaids with outstanding looks to lead Zhou Qing and his party down.
Ariel took the initiative to follow.
Some mermaids of the younger generation wanted to step forward to stop them, but were stopped by the Sea Princess.
It’s not that Ariel still has a status among the mermaids, but because she is the daughter of the sea and is blessed by the will of the sea.
The Sea Princess, who possesses the power of golden blood, can clearly perceive this.
As long as Ariel still has the identity of "Daughter of the Sea" recognized by the sea, even the power of the sea god cannot harm her in the ocean, otherwise the sea god will be retaliated against.
And what about her, the Sea Princess?
Although she possessed the power of golden blood, and her blood had evolved into the blood of the sea over the past 20,000 years, it was still imperfect. There was a barrier that could never be erased, which prevented her from truly sensing the will of the sea up close.
Therefore, even if Ariel returned to the mermaid clan, as long as she wanted to leave, the Sea Princess could not forcibly stop her.
To kill Ariel——
With her more than 600,000 years of cultivation, it was as easy as crushing a fish to death.
But what happens after you crush him to death?
The Sea Princess will be rejected by the entire ocean, and even the entire mermaid clan will be implicated.
She may not care about her own life, but she absolutely cannot ignore the lives of her two daughters.
After Zhou Qing and his group left, Haider was terrified, not knowing how the Princess Hai would treat him.
"Human, what's your name?"
The Sea Princess felt distressed when she saw her two daughters no longer smiling as usual, but she still had to ask about the Cube Octopus. "Haider! My name is Haider!"
Haider responded quickly, "My martial spirit is indeed an octopus, but it is not a magic cube octopus. It is just a mutation of an ordinary octopus. I am afraid I can't help you much... Please ask the respected Princess of the Sea to send me, my son, and my crew... No, the crew can stay and serve the respected mermaid clan. Just keep me and my son alive."
Ordinary octopus?
Princess Sea despised Haider's cowardice and let him release his martial spirit. After confirming that it was not a Rubik's Cube Octopus, she did not say anything more to Haider, but ordered people to take them away and keep them well.
This person knows too much. If we let him go, he might speak nonsense and tarnish the faith of the Sea God. If we keep him, he can be transformed into a human race and used for the reproduction of the mermaid clan.
After all, there are many female mermaids but fewer male mermaids. In fact, in the past 20,000 years, the birth rate of male mermaids has been decreasing.
reason?
The Sea Princess had some guesses. It was because she accepted the power of the Sea God to strip Ariel's bloodline. Even so, the bloodline of the sea still exists in the sea, just in a different person. However, every drop of water in the sea actually has "memory", and the will of the sea itself clearly sensed that its "own daughter" was persecuted.
Therefore, the mermaids were cursed by the sea itself, which led to a decrease in the fertility of the males in their tribe.
Fortunately, the mermaids are half human and half sea soul beasts, and they can also borrow sperm from humans. The children born in this way are also mermaids.
Haider, his son, and his crew were regarded by the Sea Princess as a seed bank for the future reproduction of the mermaid clan, and they would be well taken care of...
the other side.
Ariel swam to the mermaids who were leading the way, and suddenly swung out her tail, stirring up the undercurrent and knocking them away. Then her whole body emanated white light, and she disintegrated and turned into a foam, wrapping up Zhou Qing, Tang San, Xiao Wu, Romantina and the others and disappearing.
"No! They ran away!"
"Search quickly!"
The mermaids suddenly became extremely anxious and called all the nearby mermaids over.
And what about Zhou Qing and the others?
Ariel had brought them to the cell where they were originally held. Since the guards outside had also been summoned to search, there were no mermaids guarding here.
The crew members on the Mermaid are still sleeping - for ordinary people and soul masters, the hypnotic power of the mermaid's singing is too strong.
"What ability is this?"
The ability to turn into bubbles, disappear, and even carry people with it in a teleportation-like manner made Zhou Qing itch with anticipation.
"This is the inherent ability of the blood of the sea. It allows me to switch freely between human form and bubble."
Ariel herself couldn't explain the details, she only knew that she was born with this ability, "After dispersing into bubbles, I can find the gaps between the seawater to move, and I can also move with you, but it is indeed related to space-related abilities."
But Zhou Qing and Tang San thought of a sentence at the same time: When they gather, they form a shape; when they disperse, they become gas.
Especially for Tang San, Xuantian Gong is the most moderate and peaceful Taoist technique, and he also knows a thing or two about some of the Taoist cultivation realms.
For example, the theory that when gathered, it forms a shape, and when dispersed, it becomes gas. This is the result of the creation of nature, and it has reached the state of unity between man and nature. It is rumored that when one reaches this state, the small world in the human body can reflect the outside universe, and one can do anything!
When Xuan Tian Gong is practiced to perfection, it is only the state of three flowers gathering at the top of the head. It is still a long way to go before it reaches the state of dispersing and becoming Qi!
But Ariel possesses the so-called blood of the sea and has such ability, which is really incredible!
But Zhou Qing was able to think of another point through Ariel's ability: this ability to form a shape when gathered and become gas when dispersed does not necessarily require reaching a certain state of omniscience or unity of man and nature to use it. Perhaps it is enough to understand the principles behind it.
