Volume 3, Chapter 34: The situation is broken.
Qiqi told everyone everything she knew, and emphasized that it was just a rumor. As for whether it was true or not, she didn't know.
However, what he said was almost the same as what Zhou Heisan saw on the stone tablet, which shows that this statement is not groundless.
As one of the five eternal companion treasures of the Eternal Continent, the Nine-Life Black Lotus not only possesses powerful strength, but also contains the endless killing power of the Eternal Continent.
Because the exterior is damaged, the killing power within it riots and surges outward, thus backlashing against its owner. Under the influence of the killing power, people gradually lose their independent consciousness.
This is not unreasonable. If it is according to what Qiqi said, Zhou Heisan's realm is too low, and he forcibly activated the Nine-Life Black Lotus, so he became like this.
You know, even the ancestor of the Undead Clan, who was an immortal and powerful being, could not successfully resist the restless murderous power in the black lotus, and thus chose to seal it by falling. This shows how heavy and strong the murderous aura in it is.
Feng He was a little confused, and asked: "If that's the case, why would the ancestors of the Undead Clan be so stupid? Why would they just throw it away? Why would they risk their lives to seal it?"
Jinghong, Huazhilu and others expressed their agreement, their heads like chicks pecking at rice.
They believed that it was undeniable that the Nine-Generation Black Lotus was a treasure, ranked among the top five in the entire universe, but even so, it was extremely unwise to choose death over giving up such a treasure.
This is also something they cannot understand.
Qiqi naturally knew what they wanted to express. The ancestor of the Undead Clan, an immortal and powerful being, was willing to sacrifice his life for such a treasure?
It's a question of whether it's worth it.
She naturally gave her own answer.
"The reason the Undead Clan exists is because of the Nine-Generation Black Lotus. I've mentioned before that the Undead Clan relies on the power of the dead, not the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, for their cultivation. And the power of the dead is a kind of killing power."
"To put it simply, the cultivation techniques and energy acquired by the Undead Clan all originate from the evolution of the Nine-Generation Black Lotus. If the Black Lotus's murderous aura were allowed to leak out, it would be catastrophic for the entire Undead Clan."
As she spoke, she looked at Feng He and continued, "If we do as Second Brother said and directly throw this thing away, then the Undead Clan will also lose the source of their energy. Without the Nine-Life Black Lotus, they will lose their absolute power in the Eternal Continent, which is equivalent to declaring death and annihilating the clan. The Immortal Ancestor of the Undead Clan is not stupid. He must know the reasons behind this. He had no choice but to do this. In this way, not only will the Black Lotus be preserved, but the source of the Undead Clan's power will also be preserved. The killing power within the Black Lotus will also be imprisoned, so there is no need to worry about the clan members being harmed. This is the optimal solution."
She paused and continued, "Moreover, the Undead Ancestor who transformed into the Land of Silence is not truly dead. As long as one day his descendants, or the person chosen by the Black Lotus, can take out the Black Lotus and repair it, he can come back to life. This is the key point."
The others finally understood. This meant that now that this thing was broken, the Undead could neither use it nor throw it away.
It can only be repaired, and everything will be fine once it is repaired. So does that mean that as long as it can be repaired, Zhou Heisan can also return to normal?
Not only did they have such thoughts at this moment, but Ye Tingmu also had such thoughts.
"Qiqi, what you mean is that as long as the Black Lotus is restored, Xiao Hei will be able to regain his consciousness."
Qiqi felt her brother's expectant gaze, bit her lip, and finally told the truth.
"Probably not."
"Why?"
Qiqi pointed at the black lotus and said, "If Xiaohei just took out the black lotus and then offered a blood sacrifice to it, it could be restored. But Xiaohei did not just let the black lotus recognize its master." As she spoke, her tone became unnaturally higher, and she said solemnly, "Look at the gap in the black lotus, it is surrounded by a soul light. Xiaohei used his soul to enter the black lotus, so..."
Having said this, he fell silent. To endow it with his soul was like possessing a spirit for a boundary soldier. However, it was unheard of for someone to separate his soul from his body and voluntarily sacrifice himself to become a soldier spirit.
The consequences of doing so and the pain endured in the process are beyond the ability of ordinary people to bear.
"Why did he do this? Isn't he stupid?" Dahei cursed angrily, trying to vent his frustration.
The rest of the people were silent. Why do they do this? The answer is very clear. Only in this way can the black lotus not continue to release the murderous aura. Only in this way can the user avoid being attacked by the black lotus.
This was Zhou Heisan's way of cutting off the negative effects of using the Black Lotus for Ye Tingmu in advance. In the same way, he made himself a part of the Nine Generations Black Lotus. Only in this way could the Nine Generations Black Lotus be used by Ye Tingmu.
Otherwise, with the mark of an immortal strong man, Ye Tingmu, as an outsider, would never be able to drive the Nine Generations Black Lotus.
Ye Tingmu felt complicated after knowing the truth, and the words Zhou Heisan said that day rang in his ears again.
"The moment you thought I was good, I ran forward with all my might, without ever thinking of looking back..."
But who would have known that he actually risked his life while running.
He held the black lotus in his hand. Only then did he understand why the black lotus did not reject him. It must be because Xiao Hei was inside it.
He glanced at Xiao Hei's body beside him again and patted his shoulder.
In short, the atmosphere was extremely depressing, and others also fell into depression, but he was different. He had to cheer up and keep himself awake at all times.
He still has a lot of things to do, and he can't let Xiao Hei's efforts go to waste.
At this moment, he once again chose to freeze the pain in a corner of his heart and looked at Ye Qiqi.
"Tell me, how to break the formation..."
"......"
In the distant long river, three days away, there is a boundless ocean, which completely isolates the three days and four domains from the endless starry sky.
At this moment in the black ocean, sometimes the wind blows and waves roll up, and sometimes the wind is calm and the waves are still.
Above the Black Sea is a rootless sea of stars, echoing with it. At this moment, ripples suddenly appeared in the void, and then three huge warships suddenly appeared here.
Their flags fluttered, and the crowds chattered. Behind the warship, a bone dragon that covered the sky and the sun suddenly appeared. It swooped down, and the moment it passed over the sea, it became a vast river of ice.
It roared like a dragon in the sky, echoing here.
“Ouch!”
