Chapter 552 The price of the unicorn son of the Wang family - lifespan
early morning!
The sun is hanging high in the sky, the sun is shining brightly.
In the center of Loya Tree City, tens of thousands of blond-haired and blue-eyed tulip elves gathered together, and discussions broke out one after another.
Wherever they looked, there was a clear spring with a radius of 100 meters. The border was fenced with white and green jade stones. The overall structure looked extremely luxurious and luxurious.
In the center of the spring, there is a golden carved pillar.
Directly above the pillar stone is suspended a prism-shaped crystal stone that emits a hazy golden light, slowly rotating, and it is extremely magical.
"Is this your holy elf spring?"
Li Guanqi, who had torn a spatial rift from the giant forest just a few minutes ago and teleported directly here, was dressed in black and stood side by side on the outskirts of the spring with Elwin, the current high priest of the Tulip Elf.
"Exactly."
Elwin nodded, then raised his head and looked at the bright sunshine and the high sun, with a smile on his face, "It's such a good weather. It should be easy to activate the power of the Heart of the Holy Spring."
"Heart of the Holy Fountain?"
Li Guanqi looked at the pillar in the center of the spring, looked at the golden crystal suspended above, and raised his eyebrows slightly, "Is that that thing? By activating its power, this elven holy spring can help me ascend to the eighth level of my soul?"
"
"Forehead……"
Elwin organized his words, "The whole process is like this, Mr. Li, I will first use the scepter to activate the heart of the holy spring, and then you must have your soul to leave the body and let your soul be completely immersed in the holy spring for 8 days and 8 nights.
After that, we elves can continue to use secret methods and mobilize the power of the holy spring to help your soul break through.
And, it's just about helping.
We can't directly help you upgrade your soul to the eighth level. Of course, it's not much different from 'directly'. The main thing is that you have to use the soul cultivation method yourself to guide the power of our holy spring to nourish your soul and achieve the advanced level."
"..."
Li Guanqi narrowed his eyes slightly.
Is there an eighth-level soul cultivation method?
"Master, don't worry, I will pass on the Vulcan Concept and Vulcan Mark to you when the time comes."
Shunkong said in his mind at the right time, "After all, if you want to visualize the God of Fire, you must have seen the real 'God of Fire Han Mengyao'.
Therefore, you must use the relevant 'marks' to witness the true appearance of Lord Vulcan's Holy Face, thereby gaining the basis for visualization.
If nothing else happens, Master, you should be able to condense the Vulcan Dharma directly in the sea of consciousness at the same time as you ascend to the eighth level of soul."
"Um."
Li Guanqi nodded, then looked at Elwin beside him, "Activate the Heart of the Holy Spring. There is no need to delay any longer."
"Yes, Mr. Li."
Elwin lowered his head slightly, then took out a strange-shaped green wooden staff from the space ring, pointed at the golden crystal on the central pillar of the Elf Holy Spring, and began to recite the incantation with his head lowered.
As he chanted the incantation, Li Guanqi clearly felt that there was an extremely special wave of energy gathering in the world around him.
Is it soul power?
But it is obviously more advanced than soul power...
"It's the law of the soul!"
The magic knife suddenly spoke, "The God of Death originally wanted to make me into a three-system artifact integrating the three laws of darkness, flame, and soul, but it failed in the end and failed to integrate the law of soul. But even if I failed, I still have a strong understanding of the law of soul."
Has good perception ability.
The water in this elven holy spring is nonsense.
What really works is not the water, but the golden prismatic crystal. That thing contains the power of the soul law, so it can achieve the soul-raising effect.
But...this feeling feels so familiar?
It feels a bit like unblocking something.
If I guessed correctly, that golden prismatic crystal should be the unsealed object of a certain soul-like artifact. These elves have developed a method to mobilize the power of the soul law in the unsealed object.
By the way, how come the Tulip Elf clan has collected so many unsealed artifacts? There were many treasure troves before.
Um?
Okay, I take back what I just said, this water is still somewhat useful. It used to play the role of guiding the power of the soul law, which is equivalent to an electrical conductor, but now it is not conducting electricity, but the power of the soul law."
"Buzz——"
While the magic sword was talking about this, the Elf Holy Spring had also undergone earth-shaking changes.
The first is the golden crystal suspended on the central pillar. At this time, it has begun to rotate rapidly, erupting with dazzling golden light. Dots of golden light spill into the clear spring water below, turning the originally transparent and clean spring water into a golden liquid.
Sparkling.
"Mr. Li."
At this time, Elwin also stopped reciting the incantation and looked at Li Guanqi with a smile, "The heart of the Holy Spring has been activated. You can now leave your body and enter the Holy Spring. Please don't worry, we will do it in these eight days and nights."
Stay here and your body will not be worn down."
"Um."
Li Guanqi nodded lightly.
Then, he said calmly in his mind, "Ares, protect my body."
"clear."
Ares responded immediately.
"Buzz——"
The next moment, Li Guanqi's simple black clothes erupted with dazzling white light, and in the blink of an eye, it transformed into a pair of majestic and luxurious platinum bright light armor.
Helmets, breastplates, arm guards, combat skirts, leg armors, combat boots...etc., all armor parts are available.
Rather than saying it is armor, his current appearance is better said to be covered by a platinum mecha in the style of the Mingguang Armor of the Tang Dynasty. There is not a single loophole or gap in his body, and his whole body is wrapped in this divine battle armor.
.
Even his face is covered with a layer of platinum ghost face, which is truly armed to the teeth.
"Forehead……"
Including Elwin next to him, the tens of thousands of tulip elves present nearby couldn't help but be slightly stunned when they saw this scene. After all, this style of armor could be said to be something they, the Western elves, had never seen before.
Li Guanqi looked at this crowded scene and couldn't help but frown.
No way.
His three-headed, six-armed and winged spirit body of a god and demon is a bit inconvenient to appear in the public eye.
"Why are there so many people around?"
Li Guanqi looked at Alwin.
"ah?"
Elwin was stunned for a moment, then quickly realized that Li Guanqi was not an elf, so he quickly explained: "Because for us tulip elves, bathing in the holy spring is a very sacred thing, similar in form to ceremonies and celebrations.
So every time the holy spring is opened, there will be many elves watching.
After all, the holy spring can only open once every ten years. Mr. Li, after you finish this time, you will have to wait at least another ten years before the elves can witness such a scene again."
"This is the culture of your elves."
Li Guanqi waved his hand pretending to be displeased, and a dull, slightly sullen voice came out from the platinum ghost face on his face, "You should also know that the soul body is completely naked, so please give me some privacy, okay? In short, I don't
Like, let them go."
"yes!"
Alwin lowered his head slightly, "Since it is your request, Mr. Li, we will naturally satisfy it."
After saying that, he turned around and faced the tens of thousands of tulip elves nearby, shouting loudly: "Everyone! The holy spring is about to open, and our savior is about to leave his body. He doesn't like to be witnessed by others. Please leave in an orderly manner.
, Yamen, Kasha, Resat, organize everyone to leave!"
"yes!"
"yes!"
"yes!"
Three responses sounded, and then tens of thousands of elves began to exit in an orderly manner, although each one of them muttered something like not wanting to leave.
Li Guanqi even heard an elf say: "The soul of the savior must be that of my lord Edfens. He must be my lord who came down to earth to save us. Because he doesn't want to be discovered by us mortals, he won't let us see it!"
Interestingly, this statement is actually widely supported.
"ha……"
Li Guanqi shook his head and laughed.
If these stupid elves knew that his soul was not an Edfens, but a "devil" with three heads, six arms and wings, they would not know how wonderful their expressions would be.
"boom!"
When all the tens of thousands of elves left, and only Li Guanqi and Elwin were left beside the holy spring, the eighth-level elf magician suddenly raised his scepter high and shot a green light from the top of the scepter, flying straight upward.
Then it exploded in mid-air.
Thick green smoke dispersed from mid-air, and soon turned into a green mist defensive cover, encompassing the entire holy spring, blocking sight.
"Mr. Li, no one should be able to see the privacy of your soul except me now."
Alwin looked at Li Guanqi and smiled helplessly, "Of course, I can't leave myself. I have to be there no matter what. After all, I still have to help you look after your physical body, and after eight days and eight nights, I still have to
Continue to use the secret methods of our elves to help you ascend to the eighth level of your soul."
"Then be prepared, Alwin."
Li Guanqi patted his shoulder.
"ah?"
The elf high priest was stunned for a moment, "Ready?"
"Buzz——"
Li Guanqi sat on the ground, lowered his head, and then a blue light flashed between his eyebrows. In the blink of an eye, a special soul body with three heads, six arms, and two wings sprouted out of it, like a god and demon that was different from ordinary people!
"Um?!"
When Elwin saw this scene, his green eyes suddenly widened, his face full of disbelief.
"This, this..."
He was stunned for a long time, then looked at Li Guanqi's divine and demonic soul body and asked in disbelief: "What is going on?"
"The savior is always special."
Li Guanqi shrugged.
"Um...no wonder you don't want to be seen by other elves."
Alwin looked strange.
Of course he knew that this was a casual prevarication without even bothering to make up a reason, but since Li Guanqi had such an attitude, it was useless for him to ask more questions.
"Ahem, I will keep it a secret."
In the end, Elwin didn't ask any more questions. He just looked at Li Guanqi seriously and said, "Next, Mr. Li, I'll ask you to soak in the holy spring for eight days and eight nights, and fully accept the baptism of the power of the holy spring."
"good."
Li Guanqi's soul nodded slightly, and then walked towards the golden elf holy spring in front of him.
Soon, the feet of his soul body were immersed in this elven holy spring, and then gradually dived until he reached the bottom of the holy spring more than five meters deep, and his entire soul body was completely soaked in the golden spring water.
"It won't take so long."
Suddenly, the voice of the magic knife sounded in Li Guanqi's mind, "This spring water is just a conductor, used to pull the soul gold crystal. The reason why it needs to be soaked for eight days and eight nights is because the conductor efficiency of this spring water is so low.
But I should be able to improve this efficiency. Although I did not successfully integrate the power of the soul law back then, I have been exposed to this aspect. Give me some time and I will study it."
"Then come on."
Li Guanqi replied casually, then closed his eyes and lay down in the spring water, rising and falling slightly with the waves of the water.
Comfortable.
The golden spring water of this elven holy spring is really comfortable, giving his soul a warm feeling. Even his consciousness can't help but feel sleepy...sleep...sleep...
It was a sleep I had not experienced in a long time, and it was the sleep of the soul.
In this way, Li Guanqi lay in the holy spring of spirits in the form of his soul body and began to sleep comfortably.
Demon Sword Lumo, on the other hand, is constantly studying the properties of this spring water as a conductor, thinking about how to improve the conductor efficiency.
As for the shore, Alwin stayed beside Li Guanqi's body, never leaving.
Time passes slowly.
…
…
"Bagua level, early stage..."
Daluo Dynasty, the ancestral land of the Wang family.
In the deepest part of this underground palace tomb, in the place illuminated by dim firelight, a deep female voice suddenly sounded.
There, there is an exquisite and transparent crystal coffin, sealing the body of a man whose body does not rot and whose appearance does not age.
In front of the crystal coffin, there was a woman sitting cross-legged on the ground.
She has a beautiful face, but her face is expressionless. There is no emotion in her beautiful black eyes. She is wearing a gorgeous dark green dress. The color is so dark that there is no freshness of green at all, but instead there is a dark green coquettishness.
sly.
"The speed of absorbing the power of my ancestors is getting faster and faster. It seems that in more than ten days, I will be able to open the second Bagua acupoint, but..."
Wang Yanqing lowered his head, caressed his chest with his right hand, narrowed his beautiful eyes, and murmured to himself, "As my cultivation level increases, I don't feel that my life span is increasing, but... is it shortening?
This is the feeling when you step into the sixth level, and the same feeling when you step into the seven-star level.
Now that I have entered the Bagua level, this feeling has become even stronger."
"Bang!"
Suddenly, Wang Yanqing took out a jade pendant from his waist, reached out and crushed it.
What's interesting is that after the jade pendant was crushed, the scattered fragments actually floated up in the air again, coalesced back together, and returned to its intact appearance.
However, the jade pendant was crushed once after all.
And this is a signal.
A signal calling the ancestor of the Wang family to come here.
"Da, da, da."
In the darkness of the underground palace tomb, a burst of footsteps suddenly sounded, approaching from far away.
Soon, an old man wearing a white robe appeared in Wang Yanqing's sight.
One of the only two Jiugong-level ancestors of the Wang family, Wang Haoran.
"What's wrong, Yan Qing...huh?"
He clasped his hands behind his back and walked slowly to Wang Yanqing's side. Feeling the Bagua-level aura coming from the other person's body, he couldn't help but smile. The wrinkles on his face were all gathered together. Under the dim light of the underground palace, his smile was like a flower.
Disgusting old chrysanthemum.
"Sure enough, you! It has to be you! You are the best candidate for our Wang family's Qilinzi plan!"
The smile on Wang Haoran's face became brighter and brighter, and he couldn't help but open his hands and said excitedly: "The last guy who exploded and died was a waste, wasting so much of our time!
The person truly chosen by fate and destined to come here to absorb the power of the ancestors is none other than you, Yan Qing!
Yan Qing, your talent far exceeds our expectations. Your ability to absorb power is so fast, so fast that we can't even imagine it.
Believe me, son, the day when you step into the Nine Palaces level is not far away!"
"Why did you hide it from me?"
Wang Yanqing listened to the ancestor's words, but his eyes were lowered, his face was expressionless, and his voice was cold, "The price of absorbing the power of the ancestors and rapidly improving one's cultivation level is life span, right."
"..."
The smile on Wang Haoran's face froze.
"Hey, old thing."
Wang Yanqing stood up slowly, stood up from the ground, and squinted at Wang Haoran coldly, "So, the so-called Qilin son of the Wang family is actually using his lifespan to exchange for cultivation. In this case, even if I reach the Jiugong level, how long can I live?
Fifty years? Thirty years? Ten years? Or... shorter?"
"I got news that the Holy One has been hunting down Ying Xiao recently."
Wang Haoran did not answer the question directly. He just turned around and stood with his hands behind his back. He turned his back to Wang Yanqing and smiled: "Your Majesty is dying, really soon. The day of his death is very recent. I bet that even
No more than next year.
Before His Majesty dies, he will definitely eliminate all demigod-level threats outside the Great Wall for us, leaving us with a safe enough environment for internal fighting. Haha... He must not want to, right? But he has to do this.
Once His Majesty passes away, the time left to us to decide the pattern of Kyushu will only be a few years.
These few years have been the golden age of Zhuolu.
And you, Yan Qing, when the peak of your combat power completely coincides with this golden period, our Wang family, under the leadership of you, Wang Yanqing, will usher in its true peak! It is even possible to reach the throne of the emperor with your sword! Become the royal family! Become the royal family!
Royal!"
"At the cost of my life?"
There was a bit of murderous intent in Wang Yanqing's eyes.
"But you didn't refuse."
Wang Haoran suddenly turned his head, looked at her, and said with a ferocious smile: "You have long felt that your life span is shortening, but you have not stopped absorbing the power of your ancestors, right?"
"Oh!"
Wang Yanqing sneered, "I really want to stop, how can you still let me live? Damn you old thing, why are you pretending to be here with me?"
"It makes sense, it makes sense."
Wang Haoran just smiled and nodded.
"I thought you were different from another old dog."
Wang Yanqing looked at him with disgust, "I didn't expect you to be more disgusting than that guy. You do disgusting things and you always like to put on a disguise. At least that old thing can't pretend. I should have known better. It turns out that the Wang family
The two Jiugong-level ancestors are both disgusting and despicable stinkers."
"hey-hey……"
Wang Haoran just smiled, not showing any sign of being offended by the insult.
"Hey, old thing."
Wang Yanqing turned around, looked down at the crystal coffin, and said coldly: "When I reach my strength, I will kill you two without hesitation, understand? I'll tell you two in advance to give you a mental preparation."
"certainly!"
The smile on the Wang family ancestor's face became more and more crazy, "Of course! Of course! Of course! Of course! When you are strong enough, of course you can kill the two of us! You can do whatever you want! Because the strong can do it
Do whatever you want, do whatever you want!
But it doesn't matter!
Because when you have completely absorbed the power of your ancestors, the will left by these ancestors before their death will affect you, and you will start to think about the Wang family from the bottom of your heart, and do everything you can for the rise of the Wang family, at any cost!
In fact, you have already been affected hahahaha...
This is enough, this is enough, Yan Qing!
As long as the Wang family can rise, it doesn’t matter if I, Wang Haoran, dies?! It doesn’t matter! It doesn’t matter!!!”
Wang Haoran shouted, danced and looked crazy.
"..."
Seeing this, Wang Yanqing couldn't help frowning, "It's really crazy."
She shook her head slightly, then withdrew her gaze, leaving only the other person's back in a dark green dress and an indifferent voice.
"Old guy, get out of here, don't stay here and get in my way."
"yes!"
Wang Haoran grinned, bent down, and bowed his head to Wang Yanqing.
"As you wish, my respected future head of the family, oh no, it should be the future... Your Majesty."
