Chapter 46 The Deal with the Blue Silver King. A Deal, and a Threat!
It was not surprising that the Blue Silver King could sense the right leg bone of the 100,000-year-old Blue Silver Emperor.
Dugu Lin was already prepared and said, "This matter begins with the Blue Silver Emperor's encounter with Tang Hao of the Clear Sky Sect..."
In the following time, Dugu Lin not only told the story of Tang Hao and the Blue Silver Emperor, but also recounted his speculations about the truth of the sacrifice, sparing no effort to sow discord between Tang Hao and others.
The more the Blue Silver King listened, the angrier he became!
Back then, the Blue Silver King and Tang Hao had returned to the Blue Silver Forest together, and the Blue Silver King had a fairly good impression of Tang Hao. Who would have thought that the honest and simple man would actually be so cunning?
Beside him, the Blue Silver Emperor seedling trembled slightly, as if excited.
Dugu Lin asked in surprise, "Senior, has Senior Blue Silver Emperor regained consciousness?"
The Blue Silver King sighed, "Our Emperor's consciousness is still in a state of chaos, and she only has a certain perception of the outside world."
"I see." Dugu Lin said with a hint of regret.
"Gentlemen, thank you for escorting my Emperor back to the Blue Silver Forest and for informing me of the details! I can never repay such a great favor!"
Dugu Bo didn't stand on ceremony and directly cupped his hands and said, "Senior Blue Silver King, there's no need for such formalities. My grandson and I have come here to ask you for a favor."
"As long as your request is within my capabilities, I will not refuse!"
Upon hearing this, Dugu Bo and his grandson exchanged a glance, and then he said, "I would like to make a deal with you, Blue Silver King!"
"Deal?"
The Blue Silver King pondered for a moment before speaking, "Tell me."
"I have a treasure land that is perfect for the growth of plant-type soul beasts! If the Blue Silver Emperor is planted there, I dare say that within twenty years, she will be able to transform back into human form!"
"What? Twenty years?"
A look of shock appeared on the withered, old face of the Blue Silver King.
Their soul beasts typically take tens of thousands, even hundreds of thousands of years to grow. To suddenly hear that their emperor could be reborn in just twenty years... was utterly unbelievable!
The Blue Silver King had sensed the fall of their emperor since six years ago!
Only today did the Blue Silver King sense the Emperor's aura again, and he was overjoyed to learn that the Emperor had not truly perished!
Who would have thought that such a treasure land could have such miraculous effects? Did this treasure land really exist?
Dugu Bo took out a celestial-grade bamboo: the Black Jade Divine Bamboo, and continued, "You can sense the energy and medicinal effects contained in this celestial-grade Black Jade Divine Bamboo, and you will know that I have not deceived you."
The Blue Silver King had lived for tens of thousands of years without ever leaving the Blue Silver Forest. Therefore, he had never seen or recognized any celestial treasures.
However, plant-type soul beasts are exceptionally sensitive to immortal herbs.
In just a breath, a look of horror appeared on the withered, old face of the Blue Silver King!
At this moment, the Blue Silver King was not shocked, but horrified!
What kind of wonderful place could allow a bamboo to grow to such an extent?
As members of the soul beast race, whether animals or plants, they develop consciousness as their strength gradually increases, evolving from ordinary animals or plants into true soul beasts!
The Blue Silver King could clearly sense that the energy contained in this Black Jade Divine Bamboo was absolutely no less than the energy contained in a 40,000 to 50,000-year-old plant-type soul beast!
If that was the case, then this Jade Bamboo had not developed consciousness and had not evolved into a soul beast!
Absolutely impossible! It defied common sense!
The Blue Silver King's heart was filled with unease for a long time. If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, with the truth right before him, he would never have believed it!
"Phew~"
After a long silence, the Blue Silver King let out a long breath and asked, "Are there any other immortal herbs for me to see?"
Dugu Bo then took out two more exquisite plants: Narcissus Jade Skin and Dewy Autumn Water.
The Blue Silver King fell silent. The fact that the other party could produce three immortal herbs simultaneously was enough to prove that they truly knew of such an exceptionally mysterious treasure land!
After a long silence, the Blue Silver King finally spoke, asking, "Speak, what brings you here? What kind of deal is this?"
Dugu Bo looked at Dugu Lin, signaling him to speak for himself.
"Senior."
Dugu Lin cupped his hands in greeting and said, "I've heard that plant-type soul beasts leave behind a seed after they sacrifice themselves. Is that true?"
"Yes...."
Before he could finish speaking, the Blue Silver King frowned slightly and asked in a deep voice, "Do you want me to sacrifice myself for you?"
"That is it! Senior sacrifices himself for me, and I transplant your seed and the Blue Silver Emperor together to that treasure land! In this way, the Blue Silver Emperor can be reborn in a short time! You can also be reborn in that treasure land, and even reach a higher level! It is not impossible to break through 100,000 years!"
Upon hearing this, the Blue Silver King remained silent for a long time.
This made Dugu Lin somewhat uncertain. Although it required him to sacrifice himself, it was clearly a win-win deal in terms of the outcome. Why was the Blue Silver King hesitant?
Do I really have to say it myself: "Blue Silver King, you don't want your Blue Silver Emperor to be...?"
Dugu Bo exchanged a glance with Dugu Lin, who stroked his beard and said with a smile, "Senior Blue Silver King, if you question the credibility of my grandfather and grandson, we can swear on our martial souls!"
Upon hearing this, Dugu Lin suddenly realized!
Wasn't it precisely because of her pure heart that the Blue Silver Emperor met such a tragic end? It was perfectly normal for the Blue Silver King to have these doubts now.
Having figured this out, Dugu Lin immediately raised his finger to the sky and swore an oath: "Senior Blue Silver King, I swear on my martial soul that as long as you sacrifice yourself for me, I will definitely transplant you and the Blue Silver Emperor into the treasure land of the Ying Yang Ice And Fire Eyes, and do my best to protect you and the Blue Silver Emperor so that you may be reborn! Otherwise, I will die with my martial soul shattered!"
In any case, this matter did not conflict with the interests of the grandfather and grandson, so they simply went along with the Blue Silver King's wishes.
Beside him, Dugu Bo released his Jade Phosphor Serpent Emperor Martial Soul and nine soul rings, swearing, "I swear by my Jade Phosphor Serpent Emperor Martial Soul and my level 95 Title Douluo strength that as long as you sacrifice yourself for my grandson, I will do everything in my power to help you and the Blue Silver Emperor achieve rebirth! Otherwise, I will surely shatter my Martial Soul and cause my cultivation to regress!"
In the fantasy world of Douluo Continent, oaths are of utmost importance.
The Blue Silver King pondered for a very long time.
Because this was both a deal and a threat!
Otherwise... if you're going to swear an oath, then just swear one! Why did you have to release your martial soul and soul power cultivation? And you even emphasized your level 95 soul power cultivation, as if you were afraid that the Blue Silver King might misperceive you.
This was a blatant threat!
With his level 95 soul power and the venomous Jade Phosphor Serpent Emperor, he could absolutely slaughter the entire Blue Silver Forest!
They couldn't beat him, they simply couldn't beat him.
The Blue Silver Emperor and the Blue Silver Forest were Dugu Bo and Dugu Lin's bargaining chips! At the same time, they were also the Blue Silver King's weaknesses.
The Blue Silver King finally spoke: "I have felt your sincerity!"
After he finished speaking, a long time passed.
The Blue Silver King spoke again: "In that case, I will make a bet! You two, do not forget the oath you made with your respective martial souls!"
It was a transaction, but also a compromise.
Who told them to hold the lives of the Blue Silver Clan in their hands?
Furthermore, they not only helped find the Blue Silver Emperor in Nirvana, but also showed considerable sincerity. After weighing the pros and cons, the Blue Silver King had no choice but to compromise.
Deal done!
Dugu Lin was overjoyed and cupped his hands, saying, "Thank you very much, Senior Blue Silver King! I am deeply grateful! By the way, Senior, please sacrifice to my second martial soul!"
After speaking, Dugu Lin summoned his second martial soul: the Martial Soul Album.
Upon seeing the second martial soul, the Blue Silver King's face showed surprise, and he said, "I didn't expect that you, young friend, would have the talent of having two martial souls! You are truly a young genius!"
The sacrifice began, and streaks of blood-red light shot into the sky, blotting out the sun, and quickly formed a cocoon woven from blue silver grass.
At this moment, the voice of the Blue Silver King came: "My strength is not comparable to that of my emperor. Although I can leave behind a Blue Silver King seed after the sacrifice, my soul cannot remain! Young friend, I hope you will take care of my Blue Silver Clan in the future!"
"Souls cannot be stored?" Dugu Lin was shocked, his emotions fluctuating wildly. He quickly replied, "I will certainly not disappoint you, senior!"
