Chapter 3040 Ancient Water Pythons!
A lifeform's body composition, mind, spirit, and soul were four different levels of power. They were mutually independent but shared a connection.
The stronger a lifeform was, the more important their soul was to them.
The soul and spirit were closely related to the power of comprehension. The increase in spiritual energy made it easier for a lifeform to gain comprehension. The improvement of the soul would increase the level of comprehension of the lifeform.
Rememberling's divine kingdom ability, Soul Leaping Tide Spring, could be said to be the best ability for Creators to advance. It was comparable to the so-called 'opportunities' mentioned by these Creators.
All the Creators who received Soul Leaping Tide Spring's cleansing found it easier to enhance their abilities. In addition to these Creators, ent.i.ties like the Hundred Questions Beast army were also able to make progress.
Even if non-Creators received Soul Leaping Tide Spring's cleansing, it would be easier for them to advance to a higher level.
Besides faith power, the evolution of lifeforms also required a certain level of comprehension.
However, it would not be easy for Rememberling to use Soul Leaping Tide Spring to nurture a spring in the divine kingdom, as condensing one required absorbing numerous souls.
Lin Yuan was not preoccupied with the joy of Rememberling obtaining Soul Leaping Tide Spring. Instead, he asked seriously, "Rememberling, how long will it take for you to condense a spring in the divine kingdom?"
Rememberling sensed carefully before speaking. "Yuan, it's very difficult for me to condense a spring outside because there aren't many souls for me to absorb. Moreover, even if I can absorb some souls, their level and quality would not compare to the ones in the Land of Bloodian Ancestors.
"In the outside world, it might take me a year or two to condense a spring. However, here, where I can absorb souls freely, I can condense a spring every few minutes."
Lin Yuan usually did not have the chance to bring Rememberling along to collect souls. Staying in North of the Lonely River, it rarely had the opportunity to absorb many souls. Therefore, Lin Yuan had to seize the opportunity while Rememberling was in the Land of Bloodian Ancestors to let it condense more springs in the divine kingdom.
The faith country could produce a large amount of faith power continuously. The faith power produced there was enough for Rememberling to advance in the future. Under such circ.u.mstances, it would be a waste for Rememberling to use Gather Soul Conversion to convert soul power into faith power.
Lin Yuan changed his plan. He no longer allowed the Holy Spirit Rememberling to continue trying to increase its strength in the Land of Bloodian Ancestors. Instead, he directed Rememberling to use the souls there to condense more springs in the divine kingdom.
Autumn and Winter were pleasantly surprised by the new exclusive skill Rememberling had obtained after reaching the Holy Spirit level. It was equally effective for both of them.
Lin Yuan did not let Rememberling stray too far from him. The Land of Bloodian Ancestors had many restrictions, and if he was not careful, he might not be able to protect Rememberling, potentially causing it harm.
After Autumn and Winter entered the Land of Bloodian Ancestors, they frequently took action. However, they had not ventured deep into the Land of Bloodian Ancestors and had yet to encounter significant danger.
Rememberling did not need to search for souls in the Land of Bloodian Ancestors. The fresh aura emitted by Lin Yuan and the others naturally attracted those souls.
After Rememberling spent some effort to absorb a soul that clearly had extraordinary intelligence, it hurriedly shared the useful information it had just obtained. "Yuan, there's a blood forest two kilometers ahead to the right. There's something in this blood forest that I'm very afraid of. There might be treasures there.
"Before I absorbed the soul, it had already tricked a group of people into heading to the blood forest. Is there a need for us to head to this blood forest and see what's inside?"
Rememberling knew Lin Yuan's goal in coming to the Blood Ancestor Land was to seek treasures, so he would definitely go wherever there was a treasure.
Rememberling had a very good relations.h.i.+p with the Flower Calamity Beautiful Devil in the Spirit Lock spatial zone, which made it more or less addicted to money.
There were indeed many resources there, but their quality was too low to interest Lin Yuan. Since Rememberling had found a place where treasures might be hidden, Lin Yuan decided to investigate. He wasn't concerned about whether other Bloodian teams were also heading there.
Qin Yu's development in the Scarlet Territory was fraught with challenges. Controlling the territory alone was nearly impossible for her.
The other Bloodian Queens did not take Qin Yu seriously for one simple reason: she wasn't strong enough. If she could meet promising Bloodian Queens from a powerful clan and gain control over them, it would be extremely beneficial for Qin Yu.
After bringing Lin Yuan to the Land of Bloodian Ancestors, Qin Yu was no longer useful there.
Previously, Qin Yu had entered the Land of Bloodian Ancestors twice. The first time, she was forced to escape in less than a day. The second time, she spent two to three days exploring it.
However, as a Bloodian King back then, she only dared to explore the outermost areas. Moreover, the Land of Bloodian Ancestors was vast, and the location of each teleportation was not fixed. Even more powerful Bloodian clans than the Elisa clan were unlikely to possess a map of the Land of Bloodian Ancestors.
Since Qin Yu couldn't a.s.sist Lin Yuan directly, she obediently followed him, working as a collector to help him gather blood-type spiritual ingredients. Regardless of whether Lin Yuan needed these ingredients, she made sure to be useful.
Lin Yuan was now close to the blood forest. Upon arrival, he saw two Bloodian teams confronting each other. One team consisted of six Bloodians, indicating a coalition of two or three Bloodian clans.
The opposing team had only three members: two Bloodians and one individual emitting a strong water elemental aura. It was clear this person was an outsider brought in by a Bloodian King with a queen bloodline.
Lin Yuan and his companions had detected these groups.
Autumn and Winter had been blocking Lin Yuan, Chu Ci, and Qin Yu's auras, so the opposing parties had not noticed their presence.
Qin Yu couldn't help but remark as she watched the two Bloodian teams face off, "Lord Lin Yuan, I didn't expect the Dolores clan to be allied with the Ancient Water Pythons. I wonder if the Dolores clan or the Ancient Water Pythons will lead this cooperation. The Ancient Water Pythons are quite cunning to collaborate with the Bloodians to enter the Land of Bloodian Ancestors."
Qin Yu's words clearly showed her displeasure toward the Ancient Water Pythons. As a Bloodian Queen, Qin Yu actually didn't like other factions infiltrating the Bloodians.
The Wave Heavenly River where the Ancient Water Pythons resided was on the south side of the Scarlet Territory, not far from it. Ultimately, the Ancient Water Pythons were only as powerful as a Bloodian clan with a queen bloodline. It was not strength that could instill fear in Qin Yu's heart.
On the other side were three Bloodian clans with king bloodlines. These three Bloodian clans had always been on good terms, so it was not surprising for them to appear here together.
Although there were many people on this side, the Bloodian clans with king bloodlines usually wouldn't dare to provoke the Bloodian clans with a queen bloodline. Bloodian clans with the queen bloodline possessed a depth of foundation that Bloodian clans with king bloodlines couldn't match. Therefore, it was not difficult to tell which side these two groups were looking for trouble.
Among the three Bloodian clans that had the king bloodline, one of them had once taken the initiative to express his loyalty to Qin Yu.
Qin Yu had made contact with them before. However, Qin Yu did not explicitly take this clan under her command like the Allen clan, so she did not react when the two sides confronted each other.
Her main goal this time was to accompany Lin Yuan to seek treasures in the Scarlet Territory. Lin Yuan's schedule should not be affected by the internal affairs of the Bloodians.
At that moment, Qin Yu heard a rough voice. It was a voice that would never come out of an elegant Bloodian.
"He Duo, don't hesitate anymore. We can handle the three Bloodian clans opposite you. If you can make them submit to the Dolores clan, there will be countless benefits for your clan in the future. This way, it will be more convenient for your clan to trade with our Ancient Water Pythons.
"In the outside world, the price of a Bloodian has been raised to 800,000 Honor Absent dollars. A pure-blooded male Bloodian can be sold for 1 million Honor Absent dollars, while a pure-blooded female Bloodian can be sold for about 1.1 million Honor Absent dollars.
"After taking control of these three Bloodian leaders, will you still say that you don't have a source of resources in the future? The Dolores clan will benefit the most from our cooperation. You know very well about your friends.h.i.+p. I've always protected your interests in our trades.
"He Duo, if you continue to hesitate, it will be troublesome if you encounter other Bloodian teams later."
This rough voice made the six Bloodian members turn pale with fright
"He Duo Dolores! As the leader of the Bloodian clan, you're actually involved in selling Bloodians. Aren't you afraid of being expelled and exiled from the Scarlet Territory? Recently, some young Bloodians have been missing. It turns out that it's actually your Dolores clan's doing!"
When He Duo heard Hen Tao's words, she couldn't help but curse in her heart. Selling lifeforms as goods was prohibited for any species.
For various reasons, the Dolores clan had formed a relations.h.i.+p with the Ancient Water Pythons to develop further. They kept tempting her with significant benefits, so she chose to cooperate with them.
However, as time pa.s.sed, the Ancient Water Pythons grew increasingly greedy. They demanded more Bloodians and even began to require pure-blooded ones. Naturally, the rewards given to the Dolores clan also increased.
The Dolores clan frequently abducted Bloodians in the Scarlet Territory, so it was inevitable that they would eventually be discovered. Many Bloodian clans had already sent out patrol teams.
Despite this, the cooperation between the Dolores clan and the Ancient Water Pythons was too close. The Ancient Water Pythons had leverage over the Dolores clan, making it impossible for He Duo to stop the collaboration.
He Duo hated the feeling of being threatened. Hen Tao's words left her no choice but to comply with him and attack the three Bloodian clans.
The Ancient Water Pythons had obtained too many benefits from selling the Bloodians and were unwilling to relent. However, Hen Tao was too bold. If the Bloodian Queen clans heard of this, they would certainly demand an explanation from the Ancient Water Pythons. The latter were not strong enough to deal with those clans with Bloodian Queens.
Hearing the stern shouts from the Bloodians, He Duo knew she had no choice but to act.
Lin Yuan listened with interest. He had long witnessed the chaos in the Scarlet Territory. He wasn't surprised that these prestigious Bloodians were selling their kind as goods while claiming to be n.o.ble.
Qin Yu was furious when she heard this. If Lin Yuan weren't there, she would have already taken action.
Lin Yuan said, "Qin Yu, this matter is probably not as simple as you think. From what the Ancient Water Pythons said, it's clear they regard the sale of Bloodians as an industrial chain. It's not possible to open up this chain by working with just one Bloodian clan.
"Furthermore, the Ancient Water Pythons are not as strong as the Bloodians, yet they dare to discuss this so brazenly. Either the Ancient Water Pythons collaborate with other stronger Bloodian clans, or they have a backer that makes them fearless of the Bloodians.
"Otherwise, the Ancient Water Pythons would be digging their own grave. A species with a death wish wouldn't have survived until now.
"We don't need to interfere and cause trouble now. These three people won't kill us if they want to control the three Bloodian clans. The leaders of the Bloodian clans will submit when they're no match for them. They won't just die in vain. When we leave the Land of Bloodian Ancestors, I will help you resolve this matter."
