Chapter 157: The inheritance of Alex, the Emerald Bird.
Seeing Qian Renxue sigh, Tianmeng Ice Silkworm immediately became anxious and said frantically: "That was just an accident. I am very useful! Do you know how powerful my million-year spirit ring is? Because of the fusion with you, I have just broken through the million-year limit. In addition to the necessary martial spirit body, I can also bring you three spirit skills!"
"Brother, I have an unprecedented wisdom spirit ring on the continent, and my original power can also bring you a brand new ice attribute martial spirit!"
Alex shook his head and said, "You already have two different martial souls. The ice-attributed martial soul that this big bug gave you cannot be used at the moment."
Qian Renxue was stunned for a moment, and asked in confusion: "Why? Can't I become a Three-Life Martial Spirit?"
"It's not that it's impossible, but it's unnecessary. Simply adding an ice-attributed martial spirit will only enhance some of the foundation, but it won't cause any significant changes in combat power."
"I have also read some of your memories and have a partial understanding of the system of this world. Twin martial souls have extremely high physical requirements for soul masters. Not to mention your second martial soul, your angel martial soul alone has several attributes, and each attribute is quite overbearing. Adding a new ice attribute martial soul will cause problems."
"Both of your martial souls have been infected by divine power. No matter how strong your body is, your body will reach its limit after practicing with these two martial souls. Logically speaking, your second martial soul should have an impact on you when you practice."
"It seems that someone is restraining your second martial soul. They have reached an inexplicable balance. Although having one more martial soul will not cause you to explode and die, it will have an unknown impact on the other two martial souls and produce serious side effects."
Qian Renxue listened to Alex's story silently. She didn't really care about the issue of having an extra martial soul. Although her situation was somewhat special, she was indeed a spirit master with twin martial souls.
The Tianmeng Ice Silkworm's golden little eyes swept across Alex's body with a bit of anthropomorphic dissatisfaction.
"This is none of my business. It's obvious that Xiaoxue's talent is too good. Is there any soul master among humans who can surpass her? And old man, who are you? Why are you fighting for territory with me?"
Electrolux did not back down. "I want to compete with you for territory? Who do you think you are? You are just a fleshworm. If I didn't have only a trace of consciousness left, I would turn you into food in a minute."
Tianmeng Ice Silkworm said angrily, "You are talking nonsense. Come on if you have the guts. Let's see who can kill the other. Don't think I can't see that you only have this little bit of consciousness left, not even a little energy. You think you can fight me?"
Electrolux said disdainfully, "Yes, I only have a wisp of consciousness left, but my consciousness level is many times higher than yours. What can you do to me? My consciousness is broken, and you can't deal with me even if there is only a wisp left. Just think about it, if I gradually recover the broken consciousness, what will happen then? I will pinch your fat body, then slowly apply force, and with a snap, I will crush you and your juices will splash."
"You! Xiaoxue, look at him!" Tianmeng Ice Silkworm was obviously no match for the old man. He was so angry that ten balls of golden light on his body kept surging, and he began to look for help.
Qian Renxue smiled and said, "The old man is right. His spiritual consciousness is indeed at a very high level. If he has malicious intentions, we can't resist him."
Alex was obviously much gentler to Qian Renxue. "Little girl, I should not belong to this world originally. I only remember that I seemed to be dying at that time, but it might be because my soul power was too strong. At the moment of death, an unknown war between gods broke out in your world, breaking the space. That's why this wisp of my consciousness survived, and ended up in your world."
"I was guided by a trace of destiny. Just now, that big bug merged with you, which produced a very strong energy fluctuation, and attracted me as well. So, this wisp of my consciousness moved into your spiritual sea. Don't worry, I have no ill will towards you, and I'm afraid I can't leave you in the future."
"I only have a wisp of consciousness left, which is very fragile. It takes time to gradually repair and slowly restore all my memories. If it weren't for the gold of life left in your sea of spirit that gave me a chance to breathe and woke me up from my slumber, I'm afraid I would have continued to sleep forever."
"Now I remember my name. I am the Holy God of Death, the Scourge of the Undead - Ilex."
"Although you are young, you have great power and strength. Even without me, it will not affect your path to the top. But since I have accepted your favor, I must express my gratitude. Although my memory is fuzzy, I vaguely remember that I have three abilities. Two of them seem to have been passed down to the other two disciples, and the remaining one is also my most fundamental ability."
"Child, are you willing to accept my inheritance?"
Qian Renxue did not immediately accept it with great joy. Instead, she asked curiously, "Master Yi, this is just our first meeting. Why are you willing to pass on your inheritance to me?"
Alex laughed. "I can feel the aura of light on you. In my world, such pure aura of light is called the Son of Light. Only those with the purest hearts and closest to the element of light can possess it. In your world, it should be called the Ultimate Light."
Qian Renxue looked directly at Alex and said seriously, "You are now in my spiritual sea, so I don't need to hide anything. I am not a so-called pure-minded person. The rules of our world are different. Having the ultimate light does not mean that you are a kind-hearted person. I only have the power of light because of the glory of my ancestors, and I am definitely not a kind person."
Alex listened to Qian Renxue quietly, but the smile on his face did not diminish. "But you are definitely not an evil person."
Qian Renxue asked in surprise: "Am I not evil enough?"
Alex sighed, hesitated for a moment, and then said, "Child, I seem to have been a powerful magician. At first, I was a light magician, proficient in all kinds of light magic. Later, due to some things, my heart was filled with hatred. I used my talent to practice necromancy, and I explored a new path, the necromancy of light attributes, the necromancy that cannot be restrained."
"I don't want to tell you the sad story again, but how many people have you killed? Have you ever seen a real war? You are just not kind."
Hearing this, Qian Renxue's face turned slightly red. Don't tell me, it's true. Compared with this undead scourge who started the plane war, how many people has she, a little Karami, killed? It only takes him half a day, and the lives lost are a concept that she will never be able to touch in her lifetime.
Thinking about it this way, she just felt like a kid with a middle school syndrome, shouting that she was a sinner to a butcher who had massacred the entire continent. She was so embarrassed that she wanted to dig a hole in her three-bedroom apartment with her toes.
Electrolux's purity is far above hers!
"Hey, hey, hey! Xiaoxue is my host. When is it your turn to teach me?"
Amid the dissatisfied cries of Tianmeng Ice Silkworm, Qian Renxue put away her martial spirit, put her hand on her chest, and bowed to Alex: "Teacher."
Alex nodded in satisfaction. "Okay, from now on you are my disciple, the Holy God of Death. You have had a very smooth life, and there is no hatred in your heart, only joy. I don't think you will commit meaningless murders. What's more, I am here, and with the gold of life, my consciousness will gradually recover."
As soon as she finished speaking, Qian Renxue's originally deep purple eyes turned gray. It was a gray color that was full of vicissitudes, as if it could see through everything in the world. What was even more strange was that a circle of gray soul rings slowly rose from under her feet.
As the gray soul ring climbed upwards, it actually brought up a series of afterimages, making it impossible to tell whether it was one or more.
"Before you begin, you must remember this. It is precisely because of the taboos and power of necromancy that it is more dangerous. If you sink into darkness, you will be destroyed by darkness. Live as a necromancy, but look to the light. You must remember these eight words. The teacher does not hope that necromancy will flourish in your hands. The teacher only hopes that this inheritance can continue."
"Your world is different from my world. In my world, the existence of gods is equivalent to the sublimation of one's soul after it has been elevated to an extremely high level. It only exists vaguely in space, just like being transformed into countless elements, and can no longer control everything about itself. In your world, there seems to be a special power that can elevate one to another place after reaching that level of cultivation. This is the true way to become a god!"
"I will teach you my deepest necromancy magic little by little in the future. You only need to constantly improve your spiritual power to use it. Light and the undead seem to be incompatible, but as long as we can find their common ground, we can find their intersection and gradually pull them into a fusion. The most important point of the intersection between light and the undead is life."
"Haha, this is also one of your attributes. Only when light shines on the earth can life be born. Sunlight and water are the core of the survival of the original life form. And the magic of the dead studies the power of death. One is life, the other is death. But in fact, they are just the two poles of life. Life and death are not only repulsive, in certain circumstances, they will also attract each other, and the two poles will give birth to each other."
"This gray soul ring is the undead magic framework I built for you. Of course, it is not complete yet. I need to understand the rules of this world better, and it is not a soul ring." "The ability I gave you is not a martial soul, but it is better than a martial soul. This martial soul cannot increase your strength by adding soul rings, but it will increase your strength as your own soul power and mental strength increase, so you don't have to worry about it affecting your two martial souls."
According to Alex's explanation, as a necromancer, his own vitality and life energy are very important. The so-called life energy, in this world, is manifested as soul power.
Because when casting undead magic, the necromancer himself has to endure a strong backlash, and using light as a means to cast undead magic requires continuous resonance of life. But Qian Renxue has the gold of life, and she is not lacking in vitality, which is also an important reason why Ilex is willing to teach her undead magic.
The reason why necromancers are considered evil is largely because when necromancers continue to use necromancy, their own vitality is insufficient, so they have to extract vitality from other creatures. This process is cruel and bloody, and naturally it is easy to be misunderstood.
After Qian Renxue accepted the inheritance from Alex, Alex's figure disappeared. His soul was still too weak after all. Qian Renxue kicked the Tianmeng Ice Silkworm, who was shouting at her to see the source of its power, back to the sea of consciousness.
There was a layer of light golden light on the surface of her clothes and body. This layer of light golden light was the remnant of the Tianmeng Ice Silkworm's cultivation for 990,000 years. Although it had lost most of its power after the Tianmeng Ice Silkworm lost its original body.
But it still retains the effect of concealing breath and avoiding dust.
After absorbing the seventh soul ring, Qian Renxue grew a little taller. There was a faint halo flowing on her fair skin. Combined with her flawless and delicate facial features, she was extremely attractive to everyone.
At the same time, a clearly visible golden light gathered in the air, completely illuminating the night sky. Half of the six-winged angel on the forehead burst into brilliant light. The golden light spread down from Qian Renxue's forehead like a thread and flowed to her whole body.
A golden light curtain shattered in front of Qian Renxue, turning into specks of golden light that simultaneously flowed down from the six-winged angel and poured into Qian Renxue's body.
A gentle but majestic voice sounded in her mind: "Angel's first test, breaking through level 70, possessing a 100,000-year spirit ring, exceeding the target. Amazing talent but not arrogant, the first spirit ring has reached 100,000 years. The first test is over, the angel affinity has increased by 10%, and the overall current is 10%."
The golden light on Qian Renxue's body quickly dissipated, and the angel's first test was finally completed.
After sighing for a while, she dragged Xue Ke and Artorius out of the bushes and placed her soul power on their chests to examine them carefully. They were just knocked unconscious for a few days by the mental fluctuations of the Three-Eyed Red Demon Mastiff, so it was okay as long as they were not dead.
"It's good to be young, just fall asleep."
"Hmm" With the infusion of the breath of life, two soft hums came out of their mouths, and they slowly opened their hazy eyes.
Qian Renxue was overjoyed when she saw the two of them wake up. Finally, she didn't have to carry them around. "You guys are finally awake."
Xue Ke's head was still dizzy. She calmed down and woke up. She felt her lips were terribly dry. "Did we escape?"
Artorius shook his head and gasped. The adobe hair on his black hair had turned golden. It seemed that his martial spirit was transforming his body.
The two took the water and food handed to them by Qian Renxue and began to eat and drink.
There is a wisp of hazy fog in the Star Forest at night, which makes people feel a little cold and makes it difficult to relax.
It's not tens of thousands of years later now. The number and quality of soul beasts in the Star Dou Great Forest have long reached an astonishing level. Even outside the Star Dou Great Forest, soul beasts occasionally appear. This is why there are always orphans in those small villages, and why most of the traversers are orphans.
Because it is difficult for low-level soul beasts to compete with those powerful soul beasts for territory and food, in order to survive, they can only migrate outward helplessly.
"Now only A Ke's second spirit ring is left. I found a few spirit beasts that are suitable for you. Come and choose one yourself."
Qian Renxue picked up a few soul beasts that were stunned by the spiritual power of the Tianmeng Ice Silkworm and placed them in front of A Ke.
Xue Ke wiped her face and touched Artorius who was attracted by the radiant Qian Renxue. "Still looking! Your eyeballs will fall out if you keep looking!"
Artorius blushed and shouted, "Sister Ako, don't talk nonsense. I was just grateful because Your Highness saved me before. This is a look of gratitude!"
Xue Ke snorted coldly. All the money she spent on food, clothing and daily expenses was her gold soul coins. Now he dared to look at her girlfriend. What he would dare to do in the future, Xue Ke didn't dare to think about it! She must teach this guy a lesson later.
Xue Ke looked at Qian Renxue's feet. It was a bird-like soul beast with a green body. Its body was not too big, with a wingspan of only half a meter and a body length of only a foot. It had an extremely sharp beak, like a transparent needle.
The entire soul beast looked like an emerald green arrow.
"Emerald Demon Bird!"
Xue Ke recognized the name of this soul beast in an instant, and precisely because she recognized it, the surprise in her heart was beyond words.
The Emerald Demon Bird is one of the cruelest soul beasts among bird soul beasts. Its growth depends entirely on sucking the brains of various creatures. Whether it is soul beasts or humans, they are all their targets. The Emerald Demon Bird especially likes human brains. This soul beast moves like lightning and is so fast that it ranks among the best in the entire soul beast world. However, there are not many of them left in the world.
The Emerald Demon Birds once caused a huge disaster in the ancient times. At that time, they were still group-type soul beasts. When a group of Emerald Demon Birds flew by, all the creatures had holes in their heads and no brain marrow. What a horrible scene it was!
Later, the soul beast world took action to eliminate the Emerald Bird. Under the leadership of several soul beast kings, most of these soul beasts were killed, and only a few survived. This reduced the threat of the Emerald Bird to the creatures on the mainland. Even if it appeared, it was only occasionally and very cautiously.
Relatively speaking, humans don't know much about the Emerald Bird, and it is only recorded in some ancient books. Because when the Emerald Bird was endangering the continent, it was still the era when soul beasts ruled the continent.
Back then, it was said that there was a Emerald Bird King that once sucked the brain marrow of a real dragon, and continued to evolve, becoming the most terrifying killer of that era.
It was precisely because the real dragon was killed that the dragon clan, which ruled the continent at that time, concentrated their strength and launched a crazy revenge killing against the Emerald Demon Bird clan, thus completely destroying them.
This soul beast is so suitable for her, whether it is the Emerald Swan or the Black Swan, it is extremely adaptable. Only after the attribute transformation was completed, Xue Ke began to worry. Her martial soul has the ability to change attributes. Which soul beast with which attribute should she choose to absorb soul rings?
But the appearance of this Emerald Bird dispelled her worries. With it, it was just a multiple-choice question and there was no need to worry about it anymore.
