In front of a large water mirror, Li Xiuyuan stared at the picture on the water mirror motionlessly, his brows furrowed and his face looked very bad.
"Why her?"
Li Xiuyuan expressionlessly questioned the stern-faced middle-aged man next to him who was wearing a black shirt and wearing a high crown.
That person is the Master of Canglan Territory, Sam Cang.
Ignoring the anger in Li Xiuyuan's eyes, Qian Cang replied in a deep voice:
"You came here to see me for that little girl's spiritual root. I can give her that thing, but she also has to do me a favor."
After Sam Cang finished speaking, his eyes flashed darkly, and he turned to look at Yan Su who was following his daughter in the water mirror and still couldn't figure out the situation.
Yin and Yang spiritual roots, the destined person...
"She's just a child, what can she do? What can you expect from someone who has only reached the third level of Qi training? What can't even be done by you?"
Seeing that he was unmoved, Li Xiuyuan felt a rush of blood rush to his forehead. He wanted to slam the door and leave, but was stopped halfway.
"What do you want, Sam Cang?"
Li Xiuyuan was controlled by the water prison, and his hands and feet were nailed to the wall. He wanted to break free, but found that he could not mobilize any spiritual energy.
hateful!
Li Xiu Yuanqi's teeth are itching, but there is nothing he can do. He is now just an external incarnation. Except for his spiritual power, he is at the top of the world, but his physical quality is far behind. He is just a pure spiritual incarnation.
The handcuffs that control his limbs are made of special ores that suppress spiritual power, completely restraining him!
"Only she can find the opportunity for this matter."
Not only for his daughter, but also for the survival of the entire sea realm and even the Canglan region.
"Why on earth is she...?"
Li Xiuyuan calmed down and took another look at this old friend who he was familiar with before, but now he couldn't understand.
He didn't know what happened to him during the hundreds of years he left, and he didn't hear anything major happened in the Canglan Region when he traveled abroad.
Just when he was racking his brains and couldn't figure out the reason, he subtly noticed something was wrong.
Li Xiuyuan looked at Qian Cang, who was shaking slightly, and raised his head in disbelief.
"Your cultivation level!?"
Over the past few hundred years, Qu Cang's cultivation has actually decreased instead of increasing!
"What on earth is going on? Sam Cang! Answer me."
Li Xiuyuan's eyes narrowed.
As an external incarnation with independent consciousness, Samocang is his first and only friend in this continent, and its importance to him is naturally self-evident.
Previously, because of the disparity in strength between him and Yan Su, if he really targeted Yan Su, he could easily kill her. Furthermore, since he didn't know the truth and was devoted to protecting his disciples, he recklessly ignored her.
Now calm down and think about everything carefully. From the first time they met, the other party brought him into this room directly when they disagreed with each other, and also set up a ban to prevent him from leaving, but he did not beat him up.
Based on what he knew about his temperament in the past, this was already very unusual.
Blame him for neglecting his emotions for a while, and only now realized that something was wrong.
"Yi'er was chosen as a sacrifice by Yinghai Land."
Qu Cang glanced deeply at Li Xiuyuan, suppressed his voice for a long time, and said in a deep voice.
"The land of Yinghai! Isn't that your holy land? Also, it's not the place where the Shark clan goes after death. How can it be possible to offer sacrifices to living creatures?"
"How come the holy land that has always been peaceful and stable suddenly becomes active and requires sacrifices to living beings?"
Li Xiuyuan was shocked when he heard this. As a holy land that has nurtured a land and water for generations, he has always believed that it protects generations of ancestors. He has never heard of any living people, but still requires descendants to sacrifice.
"Yi'er is the 372nd generation saint of the Shark Race. Her mother is the previous generation of saints. The saints of the Shark Race have always been born from the Holy Spirit Land."
"The Saint is the external manifestation of the Land of Yingling, and is also its "heart". After a generation of Saints dies, a new Saint will be born in the Land of Yingling."
"And Yi'er is the child born from the union of a saint and an ordinary mermaid. She should be just an ordinary mermaid like before, but Yi'er is different from others. She was born with a fatal flaw."
At this point, Li Xiuyuan could already feel the grief that Sam Cang had endured and the shock that that unknown incident had brought to him.
"Yi'er only has half the shark beads! Do you know what this means? She can only live for more than a hundred years at most. Sharks are different from humans. A hundred years for a shark means that she is only four or five years old as a human. "
"Her mother couldn't accept this reality and ran to seek help from her ancestors. Only saints can enter the land of Yingling, and only saints have the ability to communicate with ancestors."
"I don't know what the ancestor said. I just know that since then, she kept going back and forth between the Holy Land and the Palace. Just like that, one day, she disappeared, and Yi'er's Shark Bead was also inexplicably intact."
When Li Xiuyuan heard this, he was greatly touched in his heart. In order for his daughter to survive, he actually gave his shark beads to her, one life for another.
"I originally thought that Caiyi used a secret method to exchange his Shark Pearl for Yi'er, but it wasn't true."
"I found out the truth about this matter when Yi'er was two hundred years old. After Caiyi disappeared, everyone thought she died because she gave the shark bead to Yi'er, and the new saint would soon be Birth.”
"However, people waited and waited, and waited, and waited for a long time, but the new saint did not appear. Until one day, Yi'er lost her mind and ran towards the Holy Land as if she had gone crazy. In the dark, As if I had received some instructions, I just let Yi'er run and watched her run into the Holy Land."
"When she comes out again, she will be the new saint."
"But the shark bead in Yi'er's body split into two, turning into two complete and identical shark beads."
Speaking of this, as if realizing some unlikely idea, Li Xiuyuan looked at Samocang's slightly decadent face, his throat became choked, and he finally said nothing.
"Yi'er's mother picked off the flower buds used by the Yingling Tree to give birth to the saint, and melted them into her shark beads. At the same time, she also melted her own shark beads into them. In order to ease the impact of the flower buds on Yi'er Shark Pearl’s repulsion.”
"Yi'er is not an orthodox saint. She is unable to resist those evil and filthy things. They are endless and pervasive. The sea realm is in a desperate situation, and the Canglan region is also affected by them. However, Yi'er can only be sacrificed as a sacrifice. Only by giving it to the Yingling Tree can a new saint be born."
"Of course we are reluctant to part with it, but we have no choice but because of the bud, Yi'er was called by the Yingling Tree, and no one in the clan cares about her life or death except me and her brother."
"She was snatched away. The Yingling Tree absorbed her, but was unable to touch her because of the shark bead left by Yi'er's mother. But she fell into an illusion. If she couldn't break it from the inside, she would eventually die. It can only be fully absorbed.”
"So, do you know why I want your apprentice with Yin-Yang spiritual roots to connect with Yi'er's spiritual sea? The source power contained in her spiritual roots is the most appropriate product of these pure spiritual powers."
"Please, Xiu Yuan."
Samocang's voice began to choke, his clenched fists were covered with veins, and the uncontrollable intense grief in his eyes moved Li Xiuyuan, and he finally let out a long sigh.
"If there is something wrong with my apprentice, I will never let you go!"
