Chapter 113: The Core Circle of the Lake of Life.
Isn't that the giant bug, the Tianmeng Ice Silkworm? I'm not that weakling Huo Yuhao, so why would I need a wisdom spirit ring?
That thing chatters on like a radio, so annoying.
What good would a spirit ring like that do, other than pissing myself off? Of the Tianmeng Ice Silkworm's four spirit abilities, the only one with an offensive-type attack is mental shock, which Xia Li already possesses.
While it can improve mental strength, it's not something Xia Li needs immediately.
I can improve mental strength slowly. As for developing a second martial soul, it's ice-attributed, which isn't a necessity for Xia Li either.
Xia Li already possesses the dual attributes of ultimate light and fire, plus four research areas: mental strength and the power of destiny.
This is enough for Xia Li to devote his entire life to research. Adding another ice-attribute spirit would simply mean biting off more than he can chew, and failing to fully grasp its capabilities.
However, the Tianmeng Ice Silkworm's shared vision is a valuable skill. We could find a way to develop it later. In the future, when the eleven-member divine group can work together, shared vision will be extremely valuable for team cohesion.
But Xia Li doesn't need to absorb the Tianmeng Ice Silkworm. With his own Eye of Destiny, he'll always be lucky enough to obtain any spirit skill he desires.
Of course, the most crucial point is that Xia Li doesn't want a giant insect to appear in his sea of spirit.
It's awkward.
So, you should continue to wait for Huo Yuhao.
The silver-clad woman smiled and said, "Mr. Xia Li, you're joking. When you need it, you can absorb this million-year spirit ring anytime."
Xia Li said calmly, "Is this spirit ring yours?"
The silver-clad woman's mouth twitched, anger boiling within her. Huh, she suppressed her anger. She smiled. "
I'm not going to argue with you."
The silver-clad woman said, "Sir, you misunderstood. It's not me. The Red King needs time to find his soul beast. Why don't you and your family stay at the Lake of Life for a while? We can have a long chat."
Xia Li smiled faintly. He had been anxious to leave because he was worried about danger, but he had just noticed the silver-clad woman's emotional fluctuations and realized that he was probably safe for the time being. These beasts were treating him politely because they probably had other motives. He wanted to see what they were planning.
"Okay, then I'll go with you to the Lake of Life!"
The three-eyed golden lion's eyes lit up with joy, its previous gloom dispelled. It happily walked ahead of Xia Li to lead the way.
Xia Li felt that among these beasts, only this three-eyed golden lion was relatively safe. It wasn't because it was weak, but because it was relatively simple and had no intention of harming anyone.
Bibi Dong did not let her guard down, but she did not intend to object to Xia Li's suggestion. Ever since she met the six-year-old Xia Li, Xia Li had impressed her with caution and thoroughness.
On the contrary, Hu Liena and the other three were extremely panicked. If we go to their Lake of Life, wouldn't that mean we have to go to their old nest? Can we still get out alive?
Bibi Dong said calmly: "It's okay, let's follow them and see."
The three women held hands. Even Zhu Zhuqing, who had always been calm, felt a little panicked in her heart.
Xia Li, the other five people, followed these ferocious beasts and quickly headed to the core area. They didn't encounter anyone who dared to block their way along the way.
Xia Li asked the woman in silver: "What's your name? You haven't introduced yourselves yet."
The silver-clad woman thought for a moment. She didn't reveal her identity directly, but instead gave a name, saying, "My name is Gu Yuena! He's Di Tian, she's Biji, and the big guy is Xiong Jun!"
Xia Li glanced at them. The three of them looked at Xia Li very friendly. If someone didn't know them, they would have thought they were good relatives who hadn't seen each other for many years.
They arrived at the core circle. The Titan Ape and the Azure Bull Python were both there. When they saw the humans coming, their first reaction was to roar and prepare for battle.
Gu Yuena went over and said a few words to them, and they immediately became obedient, like well-behaved monkeys, sitting on the ground and warmly welcoming Xia Li and the other five.
They arrived at the Lake of Life.
Gu Yuena said, "This is where we usually live. The soul power is extremely rich, and practicing here will achieve twice the result with half the effort. Mr. Xia Li can stay here for as long as you like.
Also, let the Three-Eyed Golden Lion show you around."
Xia Li and the others exchanged glances, and he couldn't help but yawn. "What's the point of walking around? If you hadn't shown up, we were all ready to go to bed.
"Xia Li said helplessly, "Let's talk about it tomorrow. We're going to sleep."
Gu Yuena smiled, "Okay, please rest up. We'll discuss things tomorrow."
With the exception of Yang Mingxin, all of them had Xia Li's power of destiny amplified, so their initial impact wasn't particularly strong when they approached the Lake of Life.
For Yang Mingxin, the moment she approached, she felt a sudden, luminous clarity, a profound clarity within her spiritual sea.
Xia Li hadn't yet given her the power of destiny. Although she was nominally a concubine through marriage, they weren't even close, and there was no emotional connection. She wasn't considered Xia Li's closest confidant.
The Lake of Life, blessed with a unique environment, fosters the growth of numerous precious medicinal herbs.
One of them glowed a vibrant red, its beauty alluring. Xia Li, catching a glimpse from afar, felt it looked familiar. Unsurprisingly, it must be the Acacia Heartbreak Red from the original novel.
Given the conditions of the Lake of Life, the quality of the immortal herbs cultivated there would undoubtedly rival that of the Yin-Yang Eyes of Ice and Fire.
Xia Li and his companions set up camp once again. There was no need for a night watchman; they knew they wouldn't be in danger in the core area; they could just leave the monkey outside to watch. They all went inside and slept together.
"Xia Li, do you want to check out my nest?" the Three-Eyed Golden Lion blinked.
Xia Li said, "Tomorrow," but once inside, Xia Li was the only one sleeping. The four of them, sensing a golden opportunity for cultivation, couldn't resist sitting cross-legged.
The Three-Eyed Golden Lion, perched beside the tent, wanted to join in, but Gu Yuena told them that when men and women live together, they engage in primitive practices, so they told it not to disturb them.
The three-eyed golden lion sighed. "Well, fine, I'll go back to my den and sleep. I
'll play with him tomorrow.
"Gu Yuena summoned the fierce beasts of the core circle. In addition to the ten fierce beasts, the Azure Bull Python and the Titan Giant Ape were also present.
The Red King captured a water spirit beast and brought it back, locking it up first.
