Chapter 336: Queen Qingyou Sacrifices Her 8th Soul Ring (Single Chapter)
Permafrost sea, cold current ice cave
Queen Qingyou knew that her crimes were innumerable, so she "returned" the white jade bone flute that had accompanied her for many years to Qianji.
"The reason why you cannot control the Eternal Frozen Sea is because most of the power is still in my hands." As Queen Qingyou spoke, part of her light and shadow dissipated, like quicksand that could not be grasped.
“I feel deeply remorseful and guilty for bringing blood and chaos to my people. Redemption has lost its meaning at this moment.” Queen Qingyou raised her hand, and the mottled blue quicksand light and shadows quietly gathered together and condensed into a blue bead.
"I have become the past. I hope you can lead the people on."
As Queen Qingyou raised her hand and flicked her sleeves, the blue bead slowly floated towards Qianji, eventually transforming into countless strands of blue light and merging into her body.
She knew her fate of withering away, and all her hatred and resentment, love and hate, would end with the collapse of her soul.
Even though she still has unfulfilled wishes, this is the reality.
This may be the punishment from God.
Qianji looked at this elder with a complicated expression. She was the ancient queen who led the mermaids to glory, but also brought a nearly devastating disaster and bloodshed to the tribe.
The merits outweigh the faults?
Both glory and disaster are indelible and real.
Queen Qingyou looked at Huo Yuhao and said, "Since you are his successor, you must have come to the Eternal Frozen Sea to fight against the Deep Sea Demon Whale King."
Qianji was a little surprised, but then she was relieved.
This doesn't seem difficult to guess.
Seeing this, Huo Yuhao did not refute but nodded slightly.
"Before I leave, I would like to ask you a favor." Queen Qingyou looked down at the body below and said softly.
“Please speak, senior.” Huo Yuhao bowed slightly.
"I won't restrict your freedom in life, nor do I ask you to guard the Permafrost Sea all the time. I just hope that you can lend a helping hand to the best of your ability if the Permafrost Sea is in crisis. Is that okay?" Queen Qingyou said softly.
The Eternal Frozen Sea is one of the three forbidden areas in the ocean. If the other two sea areas knew of their demise, the Ghost Emperor of Guixu in the South China Sea should still be sleeping and transforming. The truth has not yet been determined, but he will definitely bring about the bloody revenge of the Deep Sea Demon Whale King!
A descendant with only 200,000 years of cultivation is obviously unable to shoulder the mission of protecting the tribe, even if she possesses a divine weapon.
She saw that Huo Yuhao was extraordinary, that he was one of the top beings like the Sea God, and that he was a prodigy who would be able to step into the god-level realm in the future.
Asking him for help is the best option.
"Okay." Huo Yuhao nodded seriously.
This was not difficult for him.
Speaking of which, he has a close relationship with the Sea Princess clan, and most of the reasons come from the "future" Leah.
The mermaids of later generations have never seen the Queen Qianji, nor have they lived in the permafrost sea, and have no relevant ocean authority.
This is most likely the case after the death of Queen Qingyou, when the Eternal Frozen Sea faced the revenge of the "Forbidden Sea".
To be precise, it was done by the Deep Sea Demon Whale King or his wife, the Demon Queen.
Now, the Deep Sea Demon Whale King has been subdued by him, and the threat from the outside world to the Eternal Frozen Sea has been lifted.
If Nanhai Guixu wants to make trouble, he doesn't mind having a good talk with the octopus "Ghost Emperor".
To promise is to promise.
He always keeps his promises, which is his motto.
"As a reward for this commission, I will grant you 700,000 years of cultivation." The cold voice of Queen Qingyou sounded, and she looked down at the body below.
When everyone heard this, they all looked up.
Qianji looked stunned, her face full of horror.
How can this be——
The Ice and Snow Emperors were both somewhat surprised and yet expected this.
The Evil Emperor had a complicated expression.
He seemed to have escaped, but his emotions were really complicated.
He even hated why he majored in psychiatry.
There is still one link left in the master's spirit eye martial soul. Who else can be the backup?
"This is the last thing I can do." Queen Qingyou smiled faintly, her soul was gradually withering.
Finding a strong backup for the tribe was the last thing she could do.
"If there is a chance to make amends, would you be willing to redeem yourself?" Alex asked.
Queen Qingyou looked up at Alex, the god who saved her from being lost.
"Please give me some advice, senior." Her voice was very soft, and her light blue eyes revealed a hint of reluctance.
In her heart, she felt both guilty towards her ethnic group and reluctant to give up her obsession.
But she should have died long ago, and she has survived until now with her powerful soul.
A soul without a body to support itself will eventually become like a rootless duckweed, inevitably doomed to wither and disintegrate.
At this time, Alex turned his gaze to Huo Yuhao.
"He might be able to help you."
Queen Qingyou followed his gaze and looked at Huo Yuhao below in astonishment.
him?
"His spiritual sea can serve as a carrier for your soul. You can still retain your consciousness and do what you want to do and see who you want to see."
“If you feel that becoming a god is nothing but empty talk, you can treat it as the last hundred years of your life. If you don’t want to, you can commit suicide at any time.” Alex said calmly.
Queen Qingyou looked at Alex with a frozen expression and a bit of surprise.
“In our previous lives, both Master Yi and I were gods, standing at heights that you have never seen.” Huo Yuhao said in a calm tone, stating the facts, nothing more.
Are they all reincarnations of gods?
When Queen Qingyou heard this, she felt that this world was extremely absurd.
How could such a thing happen?
“You initially believed that ‘soul beasts cannot become gods’ and thought I was deceiving them. This is both a cognitive misunderstanding and a reflection of the different paths to becoming a god,” Huo Yuhao explained seriously.
"Soul beasts do have their own shackles and restrictions, and cannot become gods through conventional channels. This is also what you encounter most often."
“The first path is to break the shackles of rules and create or inherit a godhood. This belongs to the full-time gods. This path is destined to be extremely difficult, but it is by no means impossible,” Huo Yuhao explained.
He was bound to break the shackles that prevented soul beasts from becoming gods.
He hopes that Bingdi, Xuedi, Qiu'er and others can ascend to the realm of gods as "true gods".
“The second path is the soul system. Become the soul of a person who is bound to become a god. When he becomes a god, he can also use it to enter the realm of gods and reshape his true body,” Huo Yuhao introduced.
“The so-called ‘soul’ is essentially a living soul ring. It uses its own soul ring as a container and relies on the spiritual sea of the host. It is promoted as the host becomes a god. This method can completely bypass the restriction that ‘soul beasts cannot become gods’. In essence, it is attached to the godhood of the host, rather than inheriting the godhood independently.” Huo Yuhao gave a detailed introduction and added.
Queen Qingyou suddenly realized.
It turned out to be the case.
The Evil Emperor now had some enlightenment.
The master had never explained the specific principles to him before, so this is how it is.
Lie down and become a god, he was a little tempted after hearing this.
There are two key points on this path to becoming a god for soul beasts:
First, how to find humans who will become gods in the future.
Second, how to ensure that after the sacrifice, one's soul retains self-awareness rather than being completely dead.
In short, this is an opportunity that you can only encounter by chance.
Huo Yuhao happens to meet both of these requirements perfectly, as if he was tailor-made for him.
Upon hearing this, the Ice and Snow Emperors also understood.
Bingdi suddenly realized.
This topic has been confirmed.
In the previous life that Yuhao mentioned to them, she and Xue'er became each other's souls, and only then was they able to successfully travel to the realm of gods.
The logic is clear and he didn't lie to us.
Bingdi was pleased and smiled.
Xue Di was thoughtful.
She remembered something that she had always ignored.
In this life, she was able to be with Yuhao because she did not sacrifice herself.
According to Yuhao's account of his past life, he became a spirit directly after being rescued by him, and he also experienced a childhood stage.
Theoretically, Bing'er should have been there too.
Under such circumstances, how could she and Yuhao become lovers?
There must be some kind of opportunity here.
Xue Di looked up and gazed at his profile.
"How can we ensure that the soul can have self-awareness after the sacrifice?" Queen Qingyou asked carefully.
Theoretically speaking, the second plan for becoming a god proposed by the other party is feasible.
But what she cared about was not becoming a god.
She came to Huo Yuhao not expecting him to help her become a god, but to stay alive, to fulfill her unfulfilled wishes, to redeem the sins she had committed, even if it was in the form of a spirit.
"The essence of souls is coexistence." Huo Yuhao said.
As he raised his hand, light shone from between his eyebrows.
As his spiritual eyes opened, seven soul rings gradually emerged under his feet: red, black, platinum, black, red crystal, dark gold, and red.
This soul ring configuration really shocked Queen Qingyou.
If he wasn't a reincarnated god, he really couldn't do this.
A red-scaled snake flew out from between Huo Yuhao’s eyebrows, circling in the void and attaching itself to the fifth soul ring.
As the soul ring glowed, the Scarlet Scaled Dragon transformed into a gigantic three-headed fire dragon, holding a flame in its mouth, with an upright and majestic posture.
“This creature is originally an elemental spirit. Although it has gained intelligence, it does not have an independent personality like high-level ferocious beasts. It can only be considered as having awakened intelligence.” Huo Yuhao explained.
As he spoke, a huge vertical pupil quietly appeared behind Huo Yuhao. It was covered with tentacles and was now floating in the air, emitting a strong mental interference.
“Evil Eye greets the master, and pays respect to the clan leader.” The Evil Eye tyrant took the initiative to speak and saluted Huo Yuhao and the Evil Emperor.
A hundred thousand year soul beast?
Qianji immediately saw through the other party's true nature and was truly horrified.
Queen Qingyou looked at the two illusory spirits.
"Is this what they call a 'soul'..."
There was a hint of hesitation in her light blue eyes, as if she was considering.
In the end, she had no choice but to grit her teeth and turn to look at Huo Yuhao.
"I agree to become your soul. To do this, what do I need to do?"
“Wait for me.” Huo Yuhao immediately concentrated his mind and sketched out a series of scriptures in the void, which eventually turned into a contract, tangible but intangible.
Queen Qingyou discovered that the material was actually made of mental power.
"This is an 'equal treaty'. After signing this contract, the host and the soul will be in an equal relationship. You can take a look at the specific regulations in detail. The key points are marked in red." Huo Yuhao introduced.
Equal treaty?
The evil emperor at the scene had a lot of question marks in his head?
The evil-eyed tyrant who had lived for a hundred thousand years was also confused.
Evil Emperor: No, did I hear it wrong or did the Lord say it wrong?
What I signed seemed to be called a "master-servant contract".
The same is true for the Deep Sea Demon Whale King.
How come it has become an "equal contract" here? Has the version been upgraded?
……
Queen Qingyou naturally didn't know what those people were imagining, but she used her mental power to explore the contents of the contract:
"Rule 1: The host may not order the soul to do something it does not want to do."
"Second rule, souls must not kill their masters and perish together with them."
"Article 3, the rules allow souls to commit suicide" (Red Note: After the soul commits suicide, the host will suffer severe backlash, the corresponding soul rings and soul skills granted will all become invalid, and the soul power will be reduced by ten levels for life)
……
"Article 7: You may not disturb or spy on the dormant souls in the sea of spirits without reason; souls may not arbitrarily spy on the host's privacy or indirectly influence the host's behavior."
When Queen Qingyou saw this, she couldn't help but raise her eyebrows.
This regulation takes into account so many aspects. Have there been any special incidents in the past?
Huo Yuhao naturally noticed Queen Qingyou's gaze and said, "This was specially added by a female senior from the Soul Beast Realm."
"Were these regulations drafted jointly?" Queen Qingyou was a little surprised.
“The entire soul system is a cooperative project reached with soul beasts.” Huo Yuhao explained simply.
Queen Qingyou nodded.
There are not many equal regulations, only twenty-four in total, with very few restrictions.
After reading the entire Equal Contract, I found that there were indeed no major problems. Many of the provisions were specifically designed to protect the rights and interests of soul beasts.
Queen Qingyou nodded slightly, indicating that there was no problem.
Huo Yuhao bit his own finger as a sacrifice.
Queen Qingyou followed the instructions and separated a wisp of her soul.
The contract is reached.
Huo Yuhao unfolded his spiritual eye martial spirit and sat on the ground.
The soul of Queen Qingyou was separated from her body, activating the 700,000 years of cultivation contained in her body and starting the gears of sacrifice.
-
The vast blue-gold energy turned into countless streams, interweaving and converging in the void, slowly condensing towards the position of Huo Yuhao's vacant eighth soul ring.
The energy from seven hundred thousand years of cultivation was extremely huge, turning the entire cold current ice cave into a vast ocean of energy release. Under the refining of Huo Yuhao's soul core, it swallowed up all the soul power like a whale.
The spirit of Queen Qingyou peeled off and turned into a ball of soul light, which gradually penetrated into Huo Yuhao's sea of consciousness as he absorbed the soul ring.
In that extremely vast sea of spirit, she saw the four pillars standing in the sea of spirit and the attached red pillars of light.
Gray pillar, representing Electrolux
Platinum pillars, representing the Tianmeng Ice Silkworm
The Red Crystal Pillar represents the Red Scaled Dragon
Dark gold pillar, representing the blood-red nine-headed bat king
The red beam of light represents the evil eye tyrant
She was horrified to find that the energy contained in the platinum pillars and dark gold pillars far exceeded her 700,000 years of cultivation, and belonged to a higher level of existence.
The red crystal pillar is relatively weak in size, but it is also over 300,000 years old.
How exactly did he do it?
-
outside world.
As time passed, Huo Yuhao's eighth soul ring gradually condensed into a huge blue-gold soul ring that circled around him, complementing the first seven soul rings.
The energy in Queen Qingyou's body differentiated and condensed into a left leg bone with a dazzling blue-gold glow. It quietly floated towards the corresponding position of Huo Yuhao's limbs. When they touched each other, it immediately caused energy traction and violent soul power fluctuations.
Under the traction of the energy from the Fire Dragon King's trunk bones, the soul bones in Huo Yuhao's body showed signs of fusion.
-
at the same time.
The blue-gold light rises from the spiritual realm and becomes the fifth pillar!
Queen Qingyou felt the familiar tidal force enveloping her, which was the support of her own soul bone.
Her spirit body condensed into four dazzling blue-gold soul rings, which floated in the air around her.
These are exactly the four innate soul skills that she possesses, including the innate field.
She was now adapting to the changes in herself, gazing at the brilliant sea of stars.
Is this really the spiritual world? Why is it so vast?
At this moment, a mysterious and powerful soul descended into the spiritual sea, and the entire spiritual world suddenly came to life.
Queen Qingyou suddenly looked back.
Huo Yuhao was dressed in a black and gold robe, stepping on the rippling water, his eyes shining like gold, with a smile on his face.
"Welcome to join the Godhood Sequence."
Queen Qingyou was a little dazed.
