Chapter 407 The madness of the sea soul beast! (Part 2)
"I thought the appearance described in the book was an exaggerated artistic process, but I didn't expect it to actually be a square head."
Seeing the Rubik's Cube octopus's head with her own eyes, Romantina was a little in disbelief. She marveled at the uncanny craftsmanship of nature that could even create such a square creature.
Regarding the Rubik's Cube Octopus, the "Soul Beast Encyclopedia" does not describe how to judge its age. Zhou Qing asked Ariel: "Do you know how many years of cultivation this Rubik's Cube Octopus has?"
"Probably more than a hundred years."
Ariel was not stingy and told Zhou Qing and others how to judge the age of the Rubik's Cube Octopus.
The years of cultivation of the Rubik's Cube Octopus are generally calculated based on the golden thin lines of coral surrounding its head. One circle represents a hundred years of cultivation.
In addition, the ravines and folds on the outer layer of the light blue square brain are used to distinguish in detail how many years the Rubik's Cube Octopus has lived.
If the cultivation level of imitating an octopus increases by one more year, there will be one more fold in the ravine of the brain.
Those are the traces of time!
"Speaking of which, is that ring-shaped golden coral part of the Rubik's Cube Octopus? Or have they planted coral in those ravines and folds?" Zhou Qing asked.
"That's part of their brain, and it's also the organ they use to absorb silver light. Look!" Ariel explained, pointing to the century-old Rubik's Cube octopus.
I saw that around the golden ring-shaped coral thing on its square brain, there were actually lines of silver light visible to the naked eye.
Due to the flow of light, neither Tang San's Purple Demon Eye nor Zhou Qing's powerful eyesight could tell clearly whether the silver brilliance was the moonlight drawn by the golden coral, or the brilliance released by itself.
After understanding that the Rubik's Cube Octopus can practice by absorbing moonlight, Zhou Qing and Tang San understood that the Rubik's Cube Octopus was pulling the moonlight.
And an idea popped into their minds: absorb the moonlight and practice!
[Soul beasts seem to be similar to the spirits in legends from previous lives. 】
Ever since Zhou Qing proposed the human body cauldron theory and hypothesized that the martial soul was some kind of natural magic weapon embryo, Tang San also compared everything in Douluo Continent based on various legends of gods and ghosts and strange monsters in his previous life.
Don't say it!
After such a comparison, he found that they were quite similar!
In the past life, there were fox demons who took the form of repaying kindness, and in this world, there were also rabbits who took the form of humans and avenged their mothers... It was this rabbit spirit who was easily confused by the colorful world at first.
"Actually, the Rubik's Cube Octopus can not only absorb moonlight, but also sunlight. If the sunlight is too strong, direct absorption will burn the brain of a Rubik's Cube Octopus with a cultivation level of less than ten thousand years." Ariel continued, "And the Rubik's Cube Octopus absorbs moonlight, Sunlight is said to be used to evolve the world in the mind.”
"Similar to a dream?" Zhou Qing asked tentatively.
"Do you know why the Rubik's Cube octopus's head is a cube? Why is it surrounded by a ring of golden coral?" Ariel did not answer directly. Instead, she asked Zhou Qing these two questions.
Ring?
cube?
The ring wraps the cube...
Mental attributes···
Absorbing the essence of the sun and the moon is to evolve the world in the mind...
Zhou Qing thought for a moment and guessed: "The Rubik's Cube Octopus is imitating the world?"
The sky is round and the place is round!
During this period of fighting, the human beings on the mainland also believed that the world was a round sky and a square place, instead of thinking that the world they lived in was a planet.
But——
Would a soul beast think so? Zhou Qing thinks it is possible.
In the original series, Ditian should be the first creature that once flew around the entire Douluo Star and finally returned to the origin, confirming that the world is round.
Other soul beasts, even if they have reached a hundred thousand years or even become ferocious beasts, at most they will only live in their original territory and will not explore much outside.
Therefore, the brain of the Rubik's Cube octopus physically presents the state of a round sky and a square earth!
"Very smart!"
Ariel was surprised, but she was relieved when she realized that Zhou Qing had obtained the Ocean Star and that he had been able to analyze the vibrations of the ocean in a clear and logical way - this is a very smart child.
"The Rubik's Cube octopuses are imitating the world and trying to use their mental power to construct the world in their minds."
"However, generally speaking, only the 100,000-year-old Rubik's Cube Octopus can carve out a spiritual world in their spiritual sea."
"It is rumored that when the 100,000-year-old Rubik's Cube Octopus dies, the spiritual world opened up will collapse into a spiritual rosary, existing in a space that even gods cannot detect. Only among the Rubik's Cube Octopus family can there be an individual again Only when it reaches the level of 100,000 years will it appear and integrate into that individual, adding one or more spiritual worlds to that entity.”
Xiao Wu exclaimed: "Doesn't that mean that after the Rubik's Cube Octopus reaches one hundred thousand years, it can inherit the spiritual energy of its dead 100,000-year-old kin? It is even possible that the Rubik's Cube Octopus that has just reached one hundred thousand years can inherit the spirit of the Rubik's Cube Octopus. Push your cultivation level to the million-year level? ”
"That's the theory."

Ariel looked deeply at Xiao Wu, her eyes calm.
Why theory?
Because this world does not allow soul beasts to become gods, due to the rules, no Rubik's Cube Octopus can reach the million-year level of cultivation, not even in terms of single mental power.
Moreover, she said before that creatures like octopuses have no bones because they offend the Poseidon... It is false, but it is true that the Rubik's Cube octopus family offends the Poseidon.
Among the marine creatures in the entire sea, if Ariel were to divide them, there are two major categories that have not surrendered to the sea god.
One is whales, which are not fish at all, but creatures that return from land to the ocean.
The second is the software category.
Most of this type of marine creatures cannot produce wisdom, and naturally they cannot surrender to the sea god and cannot contribute faith. However, a very small number of groups in this group have extremely high wisdom, such as octopuses. The powerful individuals among them actually negotiated terms with Poseidon, and only surrendered if they wanted benefits. If there were no benefits, they were just pretending, and could not contribute a single bit of faith.
This also makes Poseidon hate this kind of soft-bodied sea soul beast that is either unintelligent or cunning like humans.
The Rubik's Cube Octopus is one of them.
And this disgust was also noticed by the other sea soul beasts who surrendered to the Poseidon, and then——
Poseidon is kind and unwilling to take action, but that does not mean that these fanatical believers will not take action.
Ever since!
Among the Rubik's Cube Octopus group, individuals with a hundred thousand year age were besieged to death, and individuals with more than ten thousand years old are extremely rare today.
Only those that are a thousand years old or less than a hundred years old are relatively large.
This is not because those sea soul beasts are merciful, but because they feel that if the Rubik's Cube Octopus dies, many sea soul beasts will lose their corresponding food sources.
Therefore, the Rubik's Cube octopus family was retained, but the growth of the Rubik's Cube octopus was also strictly controlled. In the past 20,000 years, except for those Rubik's Cube octopuses that survived and hid from 20,000 years ago, Ariel has not seen a new Rubik's Cube octopus. Octopus was promoted to become a ten thousand year soul beast.
