Chapter 242 Do you want to form an alliance?
"I can eat souls and the like, but I can't eat anything random, otherwise it will cause serious problems."
When Canghai's voice sounded, Zhong Ling'er was surprised. She sank her consciousness into the Canghai Pearl and saw a handsome young man floating in the air, looking at her with his arms folded and an unhappy face.
"Cang Hai, it's great that you can transform into a human form."
Zhong Ling'er happily touched Canghai's face, "Wow, it feels so good!"
Canghai was caught by Zhong Ling'er and beaten up. He was so scared that he immediately turned into a ball of light and ran away. Then he turned into a human form and said angrily: "Can you please talk properly and stop touching me?"
Zhong Linger smiled, "It's really because Canghai is so beautiful and cute that I couldn't help myself. However, you can actually condense a physical body, which is different from Lao Ji and the others."
Canghai rolled his eyes at her, then crossed his arms and said, "Of course I am different from them. If I hadn't wasted a lot of my magic power on you, I would have been able to walk outside by now."
Zhong Ling'er knew that he was referring to the time reversal of previous lives. Indeed, the Canghai Pearl was not comparable to any ordinary divine object.
"You just said you can't eat souls!"
"There is a fixed number of souls in each world. If I eat one, the ghost world will find out and come looking for me."
It turns out there is such a saying. Zhong Ling'er told Canghai about the evil spirits in the South China Sea, and finally asked, "It should be okay for us to eat the evil spirits, right?"
Canghai rolled his eyes at Zhong Ling'er and said, "Souls are not evil spirits. I will eat them if I eat them. Even if they are evil spirits, they are limited."
"And the reason why evil spirits are evil spirits is because there is something wrong with their souls. They cannot enter reincarnation, so they sink into the Forgetful River. The souls of the water creatures are incomplete, and they must have been sucked away by the evil spirits. The souls of human cultivators should have merits, so it is possible for them to carry their residual souls into the underworld."
"But a remnant soul is still a remnant soul. It just leaves the problems faced by the water tribe to the underworld to solve."
"What is that Dingkun bead? Is it the same bead as yours?"
Faced with Zhong Ling'er's question, Canghai jumped three feet high.
"You are usually a very smart person, how come you are so stupid? How can that broken bead compare to mine? I am the only one in all the small worlds in heaven and on earth. There are twelve Dingkun beads."
"In fact, this innate divine object is called Qiankun Pearl, and there are a total of twenty-four of them. During the war between gods and demons, twelve Dinggan Pearls were left in the fairy world, and twelve Dingkun Pearls were sent to the world of immortal cultivation to suppress evil demons. The pearl that you just mentioned that can collect souls should be the Dinghun Pearl among the twelve Dingkun Pearls, and its function is to warm the soul."
"Does that mean that if we put the evil spirit into the Soul-Fixing Orb, we can transform it into a normal soul?"
"I don't know. I only know that each of the twelve Dingkun beads has a name and different functions."
Zhong Ling'er was a little disappointed. Neither evil souls nor residual souls could be eaten. How could she solve the problem?
"Cang Hai, do you know that if you collect some innate divine objects, you can use them to ascend or open an ascension channel?"
"Other innate divine objects can't do that, but the Kunzhu can. Half of the twenty-four beads are in the fairyland, and half are here. When activated, they can build a bridge between the two worlds, which is similar to the function of ascension."
Zhong Linger smiled. Then she understood that the fallen gods of Dengtian Pavilion were looking for these twelve Dingkun Pearls. Dengtian, Dengtian, their purpose was written on their faces. And they wanted to cause trouble for Taiqiong Sect. Could it be that Taizhu Qiong Sect also had a Dingkun Pearl?
Zhong Ling'er was thinking about the matters of Dengtian Pavilion, while Canghai fixed his eyes on the 4 billion spirit stones that had just been discovered.
He had absorbed too much demonic energy, and needed a lot of spiritual energy to neutralize it before he could practice. However, the spiritual energy he absorbed last time was quickly used up, so he had to wake up. Now that he had 4 billion spirit stones, he could sleep for a while longer.
Xiao Haotian came over with a few fellow apprentices. Zhong Ling'er pulled the fellow apprentices out to greet them, and also called the Xuanyuan family and Gu Yanze. As for why Yuan Ziwei came over with Ouyang Ruochen, Zhong Ling'er looked at the second fellow apprentice with a worried look on her face.
Bai Luochen patted Zhong Ling'er's head and whispered, "Don't let your imagination run wild. He came to spar with Senior Brother."
"Second Brother, I'm not overthinking anything. I'm just worried that you might overthink it!"
Bai Luochen stopped talking, feeling very tired. He would not make any more excuses and let Junior Sister think whatever she wanted.
After everyone sat together and started eating and drinking, Xuanyuan Hongyuan started talking about some things he knew.
"Although my father refused to tell us what happened on the night the Dragon King arrived, he was very dissatisfied with the Tianji Pavilion and the Zhongzhou family, and even cursed them in a low voice."
Zhong Linger immediately understood that the competition was a trap. Zhenren Tianming and the Zhongzhou families knew about it, but they kept silent about it. Not only did they conceal it from other forces, they also condoned the actions of the Water Tribe.
Gu Yanze looked a little strange, "My master actually told me not to be competitive. Whoever wants the inheritance can take it. Let's not fight for it."
Xiao Haotian immediately said: "Yes, my master is the same."
Yuan Ziwei was shocked. "My father also told me the same thing. Could it be that they had discussed this in advance?"
Bai Luochen sneered, "How could it be that they had discussed it beforehand? They just thought of the same thing."
Zhong Linger smiled and said, "It seems that our elders have a tacit understanding. Should we form an alliance?"
"Junior Sister, do you even need to ask? Of course you do."
"Yes, Junior Sister, let's follow the old rules. I'll listen to you."
“Junior sister, you must take me with you. My Yuan family is mixed with you.”
Zhong Linger touched her chin. "It would be a bit awkward if our three states did not form an alliance with Zhongzhou and Beizhou. Senior Brother Gu, can you see if you can contact Beizhou through Xiao Rui? Zhongzhou..."
"How about I contact Zhongzhou?" Bai Luochen took the initiative.
Zhong Ling'er immediately shook her head, "No, Second Senior Brother is from my family, I don't want you to have any more disputes with the Bai family."
Yuan Ziwei said, "Then I will do it. I know many people in the Zhongzhou family. But Junior Sister, if Tianji Pavilion knows about this, will it interfere?"
Zhong Linger smiled, "Don't worry, no one wants to send their disciples to death. Also, if there are any familiar independent cultivators who want to participate, please try to bring them into the team. In this competition, we humans must promote the spirit of unity and friendship and present a peaceful scene to everyone."
Everyone was in disbelief. Peaceful, this has nothing to do with the word "competition". How can we compete in a peaceful competition when we have never had one? Could it be that the two teams met, gave way to each other, and then divided the resources they saw in half?
Or two people stand on the ring, first give a lot of flattery, then slowly fight a few moves, and finally compare their realms, and the one with the lower realm voluntarily admits defeat?
