Chapter 360 The Theory of Ghosts and Gods
Ning Siyue also noticed that Baili Shun did not want to get close to the turtle snake in front of him. He must be a little wary of the resentment in front of him.
But to put it bluntly, he could not win by relying on his own abilities, and even Baili Shun was not sure whether he could succeed.
Moreover, if one is haunted by resentment, the best case scenario is that he is just haunted by nightmares and his spiritual power is weakened, so it will take a long time to recover.
In more tragic cases, the body may even be dominated by resentment, invaded by some evil creatures, and eventually die.
In the world of cultivating immortals, many real and imaginary things actually exist, including ghosts and gods, and the existence of the underworld.
When Ning Siyue first heard about ghost cultivation, she felt a little wary, but later she gradually began to believe it.
Now, she was seeing it more realistically. The resentment before her had actually taken on a physical form, which made Ning Siyue feel awe for the world of immortal cultivation.
However, Ning Siyue didn't dare to get close to this resentful body that was even close to a divine beast, for fear that she would become unstable, so she could only let the Xuanming Turtle deal with it herself.
The moment the Xuanming Turtle took the stone, it was obvious that the turtle snake also began to react, and seemed to be very angry and wanted to rush towards Ning Siyue.
But the turtle snake had no way to get out, as if it was caught by something and was trapped tightly.
But there began to be some movement in the turtle snake's eyes, which was very different from the emptiness before.
There was an even stronger greed in his eyes.
"You swallow the essence and blood of the Black Tortoise, and use it to draw out the Black Tortoise-like things from its body.
It is very different now. I guess this resentment is simply repelled by the Xuanwu thing. Try to draw it out and swallow it yourself. "Ning Siyue reminded.
After hearing this, Xuanming Turtle slowly understood what Ning Siyue meant.
This stone had originally been stared at by the Xuanming Turtle, but because Ning Siyue wanted to come to the bottom of the sea and wanted to rely on the Xuanming Turtle to find the secret place behind it, it had not been eaten by the Xuanming Turtle.
However, Ning Siyue now has to rely on this only drop of Xuanwu's blood. After swallowing it, success or failure depends on the Xuanming Turtle.
Soon, the Xuanming Turtle broke the stone and a drop of blood floated into the sea.
But the turtle snake's reaction became more and more intense, as if it was taking its own life.
The Xuanming Turtle quickly swallowed the drop of blood in front of the turtle snake, and the turtle snake's angry voice made Ning Siyue a little anxious.
"It's so scary. Just the roar in the distance, with its resentment rising to the sky, almost stupefied me!" Ning Siyue sighed.
"Don't underestimate it, I always feel that it is not that simple!
What kind of resentment can be cultivated to the point of being on par with a divine beast? It can even occupy the inheritance of Xuanwu!
You know, Xuanwu is one of the four divine beasts, and even ordinary divine beasts cannot be compared with Xuanwu.
Moreover, Xuanwu is a mythical beast derived from heaven and earth, not an ordinary mythical beast, and the difference between it and ordinary mythical beasts lies in the way of heaven.
It is not difficult to understand that Xuanwu would reveal his inheritance. You can also regard it as Xuanwu screening candidates!
Xuanwu is a divine beast of heaven and earth. The four divine beasts seem to have endless lifespans, but in reality this is not the case.
The duty of the four divine beasts is to protect the heaven and the earth, and to live and die with the heaven and the earth. But if one day, the heaven and the earth need sacrifice, the four divine beasts will also be obliged to do so.
The four great beasts will continue to reincarnate, and the selected candidates will be the choices for the reincarnation of the four great beasts. " Baili Shun explained.
"Then according to what you said, Xuanwu will definitely not choose this kind of monster!
Even though we are far away, we can feel the resentment in it. How could the Xuanwu inheritance not feel it?
I think this is the reason why it cannot be completely integrated with the Xuanwu inheritance. I am afraid that it was taken over by force, and the Xuanwu inheritance was at a disadvantage, so it was taken advantage of by it.
However, the fact that there is no fusion now does not mean that there will be no fusion in the future. If this resentment is contaminated on the Xuanwu inheritance day by day, it will slowly be assimilated!
By then, it will be able to completely inherit the Xuanwu heritage and gain this power. I'm afraid it won't be long before it transforms into a divine beast!" Ning Siyue said with a smile.
"Yes, what a pity, I think this stone might have fallen out from it, or maybe it was destined by fate!
Even if you are picked up by the mermaids, they know there will be opportunities here and will definitely not let it go, but there is a greater chance of being eaten after coming in!
Do you think this stone could be a bait?" Baili Shun suddenly thought of something.
"You mean it wants to attract Xuanwu's successor?" Ning Siyue asked in confusion.
“The Xuanwu inheritance will naturally react to the spiritual beasts related to Xuanwu. It is now nothing more than a resentful thought. Although it has taken shape, thoughts are still thoughts!
I think it might want to attract spiritual beasts like the Xuanming Turtle. Just like the Xuanming Turtle’s eager look just now, I’m afraid it was also attracted by it!
Or maybe it doesn't matter who it is, it just wants to find something to feed itself." Baili Shun nodded.
Ning Siyue looked at the Xuanming Turtle, which was digesting the essence and blood of the Black Tortoise. The turtle snake's reaction was also very excited, but it was restrained.
Ning Siyue didn't know if it was an illusion, but the smaller the movement of the Xuanming Turtle, the louder the movement of the turtle snake.
Looking at the quiet appearance of Xuanming Turtle, the worry in Xuanming Turtle's heart slowly settled down.
The Xuanming Turtle is quiet, which means that the digestion process is simpler, and it also means that the Xuanming Turtle and the Xuanwu inheritance are predestined.
At this moment, the ground began to shake, and just below the turtle snake, obvious vibrations appeared.
"What's going on?" Ning Siyue immediately became alert.
"It seems there is something underground!" Baili Shun protected Ning Siyue.
The Xuanming Turtle remained unaffected and continued to swallow the Xuanwu's essence and blood.
The sound of the turtle snake became louder and louder, as if it was trying to break through something and rush out.
However, the two felt relieved because the turtle and snake's activity range remained the same.
"You say, could it be that the real body is sealed underground?
That's not right. If this evil thing was sealed, how could the inheritance of Xuanwu appear here? " Ning Siyue shook her head.
"Xuanwu is a spiritual beast derived from heaven and earth, and is most useful in suppressing this kind of evil creature.
But I'm afraid that the energy left by Xuanwu is slowly being consumed, and it may not be able to be suppressed anymore." Baili Shun said.
The vibrations came in waves, as if trying to break out but unable to.
Ning Siyue stared at the turtle snake, feeling nothing but anger, and it seemed as if her resentment was about to surge to the sky.
From afar, a breath of death emanated, mixed with resentment, which made Ning Siyue feel disgusted.
"I'm afraid it's a dead thing looking for life. No wonder it's cultivating resentment. According to the cycle of heaven, dead things should be reincarnated.
All dead things, no matter how glorious or accomplished they were in their lives, will eventually fall into the cycle of reincarnation.
Except for some extremely evil creatures that cannot be reincarnated and can only be imprisoned in the underworld, all others are the same.
I think this is because it is a dead thing that doesn't want to reincarnate, or it knows its own end, so it is nostalgic for the world of cultivation." Baili Shun frowned.
