Rumble!
The huge body of the sky-devouring sea serpent fell in the ruins in front of everyone's eyes. In the end, it gradually returned to its original form under the extreme collapse of vitality. If it weren't for the occasional impulse of the huge serpent's body, everyone would have thought that the sea serpent was already dead.
"Is it done?" Mo Xingyu and the rest exclaimed in surprise.
Ling Zhu gracefully landed on the ground as everyone followed her to the formation.
Xia Hou Mo praised, "I've long heard that the Ling Bamboo Palace's formations are unparalleled in this world. It's truly shocking to see it today."
Pa!
Ling Zhu's expression suddenly turned frosty. She violently turned around and grabbed Xia Hou Mo's throat with her claw-like hands. She did not give off the vibe of a lady from a wealthy family, but instead gave off a demonic feeling. Xia Hou Mo jumped in fright as he exclaimed, "Miss Ling Zhu, what's the meaning of this?
Are you trying to burn the bridge after crossing the river? "
The Vajra brothers, You Labi and the Longevity Palace disciples all remained vigilant.
Before he could finish, Ling Zhu suddenly said in an icy voice, "Xia Hou Mo, I don't care what your background is, but I know that none of you are as strong as my Ling Zhu Palace. I'll put the ugly words out there for all of you today. Anyone who joins my Ling Zhu team will be treated regardless of their status or background. If we can work together in the future, we will. If not, I don't care if we lose a few people. If something like what happened just now happens again, don't blame me for being merciless and sending all of you out of the Deep Sea Genesis reservoir."
Xia Hou Mo's heart trembled. Only then did everyone realize that Ling Zhu had attacked Xia Hou Mo because they had disregarded Qin Shi's safety?
Qin Shi also felt some warmth in his heart. Actually, he didn't care about what happened earlier at all. During these years, ever since he was abandoned by the Lifire Palace, he had already seen through all of this. From his point of view, other than those he loved the most, any relationship that was built on benefits would be extremely weak. As for Xia Houmo and the others' actions of not saving him earlier, he only mocked them. He had never thought of taking revenge.
That would make Qin Shi seem like he had not matured after all these years.
Because of this, he was already used to being outside, and he would not easily hand his life over to others.
Unless, of course, this person was someone that Qin Shi felt was worth spending his entire life with. Of course, over the years, he had also received a few such friends or lovers.
"What? Do you have any objections to my words?
If you do, you can tell me, "Ling Zhu said coldly.
Xiahou Mo's face darkened, and he lowered his head awkwardly. "No, I was wrong just now … Brother Qin Shi saved us, but I ignored him for my own benefit."
"Us too …" King Kong and the others lowered their heads in self-reproach.
"Brother Qin, I hope that you can be magnanimous and not be calculative with us."
You Rabi laughed dryly. He took the initiative to apologize to Qin Shi. He did not want to end up like Xia Houmo, who had been humiliated by a woman.
Seeing that Raby took the initiative to apologize, the rest of them quickly apologized to Qin Shi as well.
In response, Qin Shi shook his head nonchalantly. "It's fine, I didn't take it to heart."
Qin Shi was right. Qin Shi really did not take it to heart. Instead, he did not feel that there was anything wrong with it. At the very least, it allowed him to see the true colors of these people. Of course, these people were naturally removed from Qin Shi's mind. On the other hand, Qin Shi had a very good impression of Mo Xingyu, Miao Jiang and Ling Zhu. Not everyone would risk their lives to help others in times of crisis, even if they had saved him before.
Although the Deep Sea Source Pool would not cost them their lives, a few hundred years of cultivation was still a huge temptation for cultivators.
"Ling Zhu Palace, Yuzhen Palace and Fiery Palace, huh?
Hehe, these three sea palaces are worth paying attention to. "Qin Shi muttered in his heart.
Only then did Ling Zhu let go of Xia Houmo. Soon after, she said in an icy voice, "You don't need to be unconvinced. I will not stop you if you want to back out now. Or rather, if you think you can beat me, I can give my position to you. However, you must know that I will not show any mercy to you if you fight me."
Xia Houmo suddenly clenched his fists, his eyes filled with iciness, but he ultimately shook his head.
His actions made Qin Shi frown slightly. "Hehe, killing intent?
Xia Houmo is having second thoughts. "
Ling Zhu seemed to have realized this, which was why she had said those words to Xia Houmo. However, she did not seem to mind. She turned around and looked towards the twitching Heaven Devouring Sea Python. Mo Xingyu said at this moment, "Big sis Ling Zhu, that guy has been dealt with, and all the guardian beasts of the Earth Tomb have been killed. Should we enter the tomb now, or should we let Qin Shi try to refine the Devil Rune first?"
Ling Zhu fell silent for a moment, before she said, "Neither of you are in a hurry. The opening of the Earth Tomb will definitely attract countless disciples, and it might not be a good thing to enter first. Only the one who can keep his cool will be the victor. I'll first use the distorted space to set up a formation to draw the Heaven Devouring Sea Python and the two walrus beasts into the void. We'll enter once most of the disciples are attracted. After that, we'll find a safe place for Qin Shi to refine the Devil Rune."
"Big sis Ling Zhu, won't the treasures of the Earth Tomb be snatched away by others?"
"Hehe, don't worry. The treasures of the Earth Tomb are not something that just anyone can get their hands on," Miao Jiang said with a smile.
"Miao Jiang is right. Although the Earth Tomb is filled with treasures, it will definitely be filled with traps. Moreover, there will definitely be ferocious beasts guarding the tombs of the World Realm and above. These ferocious beasts will definitely be extremely powerful and not something that the small fries outside can look down on," Ling Zhu said with a nod.
"Therefore, the treasures of the Earth Tomb are not determined by chance at all. In the end, they will definitely fall into the hands of those with ability."
Mo Xingyu nodded. "I don't understand these things anyway. I'll listen to Big Sis Ling Zhu."
Ling Zhu nodded. Then, she waved at Qin Shi. "Come and help me."
Qin Shi was taken aback. He pointed at himself. "Me?"
"Nonsense. Hurry up. Don't you want to study the power to distort space?
I'm giving you a chance, but you're not going to cherish it? "Ling Zhu rolled her eyes.
Qin Shi smiled bitterly. Then, he followed Ling Zhu forward. Ling Zhu used Space Distortion to suck the two walrus beasts and the Heaven Devouring Sea Serpent into the void.
During this time, Qin Shi's eyes were glued to the space distortion. Only now did he discover some clues about the space distortion.
"This power displaces space and then superimposes layers upon layers of space. That's how a space of a few hundred meters turns into a space of a few inches?" Qin Shi exclaimed.
The Blood Shaman said, "En, this woman's method is very unique. However, if this method is not used properly, it is very likely that she will suffer a backlash from the power of space. After all, the power of space is not that easy to control. Presumably, her clan must have a unique method to control space. I really didn't expect that there would be a space expert comparable to my Void Ancient Demon Clan in this sea region."
Hearing this, Qin Shi did not respond. However, he knew in his heart that the Ling Zhu Palace's control over space was completely different from the Void Ancient Demon Clan's.
The Void Ancient Demon Clan relied on the power of space to control space, but the Ling Zhu Palace relied on Spirit Arrays.
"Hehe, if there's a chance, I really want to pay a visit to the Ling Zhu Palace." Qin Shi said. Qin Shi had always been curious about the Ling Zhu Palace.
After retrieving the three sea beasts, Ling Zhu and Qin Shi returned to the crowd. Ling Zhu's beautiful eyes scanned the surroundings. "Hehe, they're quite patient."
"Let's go." Ling Zhu waved at the group.
"Hm?
Sister Ling Zhu, aren't we not going in first? "
"Don't talk nonsense. Hurry up."
Ling Zhu was too lazy to explain. Shortly after, the group walked towards the altar in the center. The moment they entered the altar, Ling Zhu suddenly clenched her jade-like hands. From behind her, layers of space intertwined, forming an extremely blurry space. Taking advantage of this opportunity, Ling Zhu lowered her voice and said to the group, "Come, follow me."
The few of them did not understand, but Qin Shi smiled. Ling Zhu wanted to hide in a layer of overlapping space that would disappear from everyone's sight. This way, the disciples who were watching from afar would have the illusion that Ling Zhu and the others had already entered the Earth Burial Tomb. In this way, there would naturally be people who would be unable to control themselves and enter the tomb.
As expected, when Ling Zhu's group disappeared from the altar, the disciples watching from afar furrowed their brows.
"Eh?
Where are they? "
"Did they enter the Earth Burial Ground?
Quick, let's follow them. Inside the Earth Burial Ground, there are many treasures. We can't let them take everything. We must also have a share. "
"Right, right!
As long as we can obtain a treasure in the Earth Burial Ground, we might be able to reach a million spirit value. That way, we can enter the middle profound region. There's only two months left until the Deep Sea Source Reservoir closes. We must hurry! "
The group of disciples was itching to give it a try. In the end, they could not wait any longer and crawled out from behind the ruins, carefully walking towards the altar.
However, the few people hidden in the layers of space merely smiled. "Big sister Ling Zhu, you've guessed correctly. These fellows are really restless."
"These people clearly know that the Earth Burial Ground is filled with danger. With their abilities, they will most likely not come out alive. Why do they still want to take this risk?" Miao Jiang sighed.
Ling Zhu laughed. "Haha, in the face of benefits, how many people can resist?
Even if there's danger, they will always try their luck. "
"Then when do we go in?"
"Wait a little longer. Let them go in first to scout."
The few people nodded and continued to hide in the space.
Qin Shi looked strangely at Ling Zhu and laughed. "Haha, you're using them?"
