Chapter 688 The City Changes Owners
A soft voice suddenly sounded, stopping Li Qingzheng from burning the city.
“Stop.”
Hearing this message, Li Qing knew that his threat was successful. Naturally, this mushroom sacrifice spirit would not want to be completely reduced to ashes. This is Common sense.
Li Qing temporarily suppressed the source of the spiritual flames that he had condensed, and his voice was still cold:
"Let go of your spiritual consciousness, don't put up any resistance, and you can survive after I plant the brand of spiritual consciousness!"
Listening to this extremely cold voice, the Mushroom Sacrifice remained silent for a long time. Then he responded: "I want to discuss the terms with you. I am not willing to be bound for the rest of my life and fail to exit prematurely."
Failure to exit prematurely?
Li Qing raised his eyebrows, not understanding the meaning of these words.
But in the current situation, he has taken the absolute initiative. To be honest, he doesn't want to negotiate any conditions with this mushroom sacrifice spirit at all.
"I think you haven't understood what the situation is now, right? To be qualified to negotiate conditions, first of all, both parties must be in a relatively equal position."
"And do you think you have the qualifications now? ?”
As he spoke, Li Qingliang flashed the spiritual flame in his hand, which was definitely powerful enough to destroy it easily.
After being silent for a while again, the Mushroom Sacrifice Spirit continued to speak: "Yes, you do have the power to destroy me easily, but you have not taken action for a long time. Instead, you want to control me, which means that I I have something you need."
"If you are not willing to listen to my conditions, then you should do it."
After Li Qing heard this, he couldn't help but raise his eyebrows. He didn't expect that this sacrificial spirit knew how to negotiate and could figure out Li Qing's weakness so quickly.
Yes, he really needs to conquer the opponent, and then use the red moon spores and flesh spores produced by them to strengthen himself.
"Okay, tell me what your conditions are." Li Qing's tone remained indifferent.
"I don't want to be controlled by you for the rest of my life. Set a time limit and give me my freedom when the time limit is up." Mushroom Sacrifice Spirit said.
Set a deadline?
It wasn't that he couldn't consider it, Li Qing thought about it carefully.
Judging from the level of this mushroom as a sacrifice to spirits, the red moon spores it can produce can at most have some effect on fourth-level alien beasts.
When he transforms into a god or becomes stronger one day, these red moon spores should not be of much use to him.
At that time, it is not impossible to let the other party go free.
After careful consideration, Li Qing, a little moved, said a number: "Three thousand years!"
"Submit to me for three thousand years. Once these three thousand years are up, I will set you free."
This time period was not mentioned casually by Li Qing, but after careful consideration.
First of all, his current lifespan is only a little over two thousand years. Even if he continues to forge magic weapons or heaven-reaching magic weapons in the future, his lifespan will probably increase to three to five thousand years.
And during these three thousand years, he will be able to obtain a city that continuously produces the blood of high-level alien beasts for him.
If he still cannot advance to become a god in this way, then his hope of breaking through to become a god in this life will be very slim.
In addition, the lifespan of these alien plants in the polar night world seems to be very long, but they are not really immortal. After all, there are limits.
If the deadline he proposes is too long, the other party may not be able to accept it.
After all, three thousand years of life is long enough for any monk. It is an extremely long period of time.
The Mushroom Sacrificial Spirit was silent for a long time. The first thing it said was not a bargain, but a somewhat surprised question:
"Three thousand years, are you sure you can still live that long? ?”
It is indeed true. You must know that the changes in the world and the time it took for the world to sink into darkness were only a thousand years. Li Qing actually wanted to control himself for three thousand years as soon as he opened his mouth, which surprised him.
"Don't worry about this matter. If I don't live that long, you will be free in advance." Li Qinghun said nonchalantly.
“Okay, then as you said, I will surrender to you for three thousand years!”
“In addition, there is another condition. I can do things for you within these three thousand years. , but don’t squeeze me too much and destroy my origin.”
The Mushroom Sacrifice Spirit finally agreed. Three thousand years is a long time, but it is still within the scope it can accept.
After hearing the other party's promise, Li Qing smiled slightly and said: "Then how can this promise be effective? Do you want to place your hope on my consciousness?"
"Of course not, you are risking your life to the red moon. Make an oath, and after your oath is over, I will release my spiritual consciousness and allow you to plant the mark of recognition of the Lord." Mushroom Sacrifice Spirit replied.
Swear an oath to the red moon? This is somewhat novel. Could it be that this red moon in the sky also has restrictions similar to the Great Oath of the Inner Demon?
If he breaks this oath and then hides in his original world, can he circumvent this restriction?
This idea flashed through Li Qing's mind, but he did not think about it deeply.
Because it was not necessary, in order to have clear thoughts and a clear mind, he did not intend to do anything in this regard, nor did he intend to play any word games with the mushroom sacrifice spirit or exploit loopholes in the rules.
In this way, Li Qing swore an oath to the red moon hanging high in the sky, promising to control the other party for only three thousand years. Once the three thousand years were up, he would release the other party free.
After this, a small golden mushroom tree floated out of the castle below.
After Li Qing swore an oath to the red moon, it also fulfilled its promise and released its spiritual consciousness to Li Qing.
In this regard, Li Qing did not hesitate to be polite, and directly spread his powerful and condensed spiritual consciousness, and then planted a spiritual brand in his spiritual consciousness.
Since he entered the Nascent Soul stage, the strength of his soul has increased a lot again.
In addition, he has practiced the strange technique of "Soul Refining Sutra", and now the strength of the soul is close to that of a monk in the middle stage of Nascent Soul, and he can afford more spiritual imprints.
After confirming that the spiritual consciousness of the mushroom sacrificial spirit was completely under his control, Li Qing was satisfied with dismantling the fire body, and then took back all the burning spiritual fire around him, causing this The sea of fire went out.
After a lot of effort, Zhou Zhang was able to subdue the mushroom sacrificial spirit.
His figure fell down and came to the front of the castle.
At this moment, Yang Gong knelt down in front of the gate of the castle, not daring to move.
At that moment, the mushroom sacrificial spirit he served recognized the tall and tall young man in front of him as its master.
Now that Li Qing's status is even more supreme, his worldview has been shattered into pieces. Looking at this old magician, a playful smile gradually appeared on Li Qing's face. He said, "Stand up and slap yourself. When I come back, I want to see your cheeks and mouth swollen by myself."< br>
For this person, Li Qing is no longer interested in teaching him a lesson personally, so as not to dirty his hands.
After saying that, he passed by Yang Gong, and then there were crisp slaps from behind him.
Pop! Snap! Snap!
After successfully subduing the mushroom to worship the spirit, Li Qing felt that he had a faint and wonderful connection with the huge mushroom under his feet.
With this wonderful feeling, Li Qing came to the deepest part of the castle in his true form. He still had many questions to ask the other party.
This time when facing the mushroom sacrifice spirit, the other party dared not show any disrespect. Instead, he took the initiative and flew in front of Li Qing with an extremely respectful attitude.
Quite interesting.
Li Qing nodded with satisfaction, and then asked:
"Tell me, you said before that you were unwilling to fail and leave prematurely, what do you mean by that?"
“Are you participating in some kind of trial now, and are you competing with other alien plants?”
He thought of the huge magic willow in the Black Wind Region, and also thought of his own plant. Strange blood lotus.
Will there be such strange plants in other large areas? They are undergoing some kind of trial, some kind of evolutionary test.
Li Qing wanted to find out these questions, and he suspected that they were related to the secrets of this world.
The Mushroom Sacrifice Spirit, which has recognized Li Qing as its leader, naturally made no secret of it. It said leisurely:
“Since I was born, I have had this kind of spirit. Subconscious, and all my actions are based on this subconscious."
"I want to become stronger, continue to become stronger, and finally surpass other similar existences."
"It's a pity that I was born too early and was noticed by a strange beast, which resulted in congenital loss and trauma to my origin."
After hearing these words, Li Qing's eyes flickered slightly. He did not expect these strange plants. Existence really has some special meaning.
Li Qing had guessed at the beginning that this polar night world was really like a vast training ground, with various roads and strange creatures emerging one after another.
The creatures compete with each other in this trial, and the one who survives in the end is the victorious Gu King.
Li Qing nodded slowly and asked:
"It seems that there is an invisible big hand behind this. What do you know about this?"
The Mushroom Sacrificial Spirit replied:
"I don't know, I don't know anything about the things before birth. Blank. "
Li Qing was not surprised by this answer. In his opinion, the water in this world was getting deeper and deeper.
The existence hidden behind the scenes is so mysterious that even if he has formed a Nascent Soul, he is deeply afraid of it.
Using an interface as a training ground is a bit too exaggerated.
Rather than delving further into this issue, Li Qing only knew that it would be best for him to keep a low profile in the future, and it would be best not to fall into the sight of that mysterious existence so quickly.
In short, it is better to be low-key or low-key.
Next, Li Qing briefly learned about some basic situations of mushroom sacrifices.
Now in this huge mushroom city, a total of sixteen third-level beasts are imprisoned in various places for blood supply.
Every once in a while, the sacrificial spirits will produce a lot of flesh and blood spores to feed those powerful third-level alien beasts.
In addition, the city also raises a large number of second-order exotic beasts. These are the seeds for cultivating third-order exotic beasts, and the people in the city take good care of them.
The other thing is all kinds of strange spores. Currently, the sacrificial spirit can produce five kinds of spores!
Red Moon Spores, Blood Flesh Spores, and Corruption Spores are the spore types that Li Qing already knows. The other two spores are called Yuling Spores and Hard Armor Spores!
The soul-improving spores are used to enslave others. Yang Gong, who was slapping himself at the gate of the castle, was planted with these soul-improving spores and became a slave of the sacrificial spirit. Just now, Li Qing’s The spirit flame body was also invaded by this kind of spirit-controlling spores.
The effect of armor spores is much more useless. This kind of spores can make anything hard for a short time, and its defense power is extremely outstanding.
If nothing else, just the word "ephemeral" shows how useless this last armor spore is.
“When I was born prematurely and encountered the threat of alien beasts, I had no choice but to give birth to this kind of spores for protection.” Mushroom Sacrificial Spirit explained.
As its strength becomes stronger and its life level jumps, it can choose to give birth to some spores with strange effects.
Evolved to the present, in the early stage of innate damage, a tasteless spore was also selected, which greatly made it more difficult for the mushroom to grow.
Fortunately, it relies on the enslavement of Yuling Spores and has grown to this point while coexisting with the human race.
“Let’s talk about the Red Moon Spores. Now, can you produce the Red Moon Spores that will allow third-level alien beasts to break through to the fourth level?” This question is of great concern to Li Qing.
The Mushroom Sacrifice Spirit answered honestly: "Yes, it is possible, but the birth of the fourth-order alien beast is not that simple, and the probability of failure is extremely high!"
"And the fourth-order red moon spores The damage to me is not small. Every time I cultivate some, I have to rest for a long time before I can recover."
In fact, not only the cultivation of fourth-order alien beasts has a failure rate, but also the cultivation of second-order alien beasts into third-order ones. The probability of failure of a high-level alien beast is actually not small.
This is why there are only sixteen third-level alien beasts alive in Mushroom City now. This is a lot, but they are also carefully selected from many second-level alien beasts to be cultivated!
Listening to the other party's story, Li Qing finally understood the existence of this mushroom city.
This is actually like a factory for processing alien beasts. The fate of every alien beast brought to this city is already determined.
Either the breakthrough fails, being buried in the mycelium, being corroded by the corrupt spores, and becoming the corpse of a strange beast to protect the peace of this city.
Either you succeed in breaking through and become a higher-level alien beast. From then on, you are imprisoned day and night and used as a blood supply tool for soul sacrifices. In the end, you will still die.
"Well, next I want you to produce fourth-level red moon spores, and the flesh spores cannot be broken. There are sixteen alien beasts in the city, and I want to take the blood of the other six alien beasts!"
After hearing these requests from Li Qing, Mushroom Sacrifice had no choice but to agree.
The situation is stronger than people, and it has no room to resist even if it doesn't want to do it.
The fourth-order red moon spores are naturally required for Rice Tong, and Li Qing plans to use the blood of the other six strange beasts to feed his blood lotus and use the blood lotus to strengthen himself.
In this way, Mushroom City, which changed hands, began to act on Li Qing's request.
