The Beast's Three Paths, Tang San's One
Chat Group.
Everyone was waiting for Lin Qingmo's answer.
A moment later, the message arrived.
[Daddy Douluo]: I have three methods here.
"Sanjo?!"
The eyes of Ice Empress and Snow Empress trembled violently.
"He actually has a way!"
Snow Empress: "Bing'er, calm down, let's see what he has to say."
[Daddy Douluo]: First, let's talk about the first rule: transform into a human and start over.
[Daddy Douluo]: Soul Beast with more than 100,000 years of cultivation can choose to transform into human form, give up all their beast cultivation, and start cultivating again as humans from scratch.
[Daddy Douluo]: As long as you eventually cultivate to become a god, you can completely transcend the Heavenly Tribulation limit.
After the message was sent.
The Far North.
Ice Empress's scorpion pincers snapped shut.
"Transform into a human and start cultivating again? Abandon all cultivation?"
Her voice was filled with disbelief.
Can someone with nearly 400,000 years of cultivation simply give it up?
Starting from scratch? What's the difference between that and sending her to her death?
[Heavenly Snow Woman]: This is the worst possible strategy.
[Heavenly Snow Woman]: Her juvenile stage after transformation is too fragile. If her identity is discovered by a high-level Soul Master before level 60, she will be hunted down on the spot.
[Bingbing]: That's right.
[Bingbing]: Putting aside whether we can survive, if we don't become gods after taking human form, we only have a lifespan of a thousand years.
[Bingbing]: I'd trade 400,000 years of cultivation for a thousand years of lifespan, who would do that deal?
[Heavenly Snow Woman]: Bing'er is right. The risk of transforming into a human and rebuilding is too great. It can only be used as a last resort.
[Heavenly Snow Woman]: Besides, even if she transformed into a human, it would be difficult for her to become a god.
Sea God Island.
Xiao Wu stared blankly at the Light Screen of the Chat Group.
He was transformed and rebuilt.
Those four words are so familiar.
That's the path she walked.
She relinquished her 100,000-year cultivation as Soft Bone Charm Rabbit, transformed into human form, and began as an ordinary young girl.
She knew all too well how dangerous this road was.
If she hadn't met A-Qing, if he hadn't shielded her when she was at her most vulnerable, she wouldn't even have the chance to live to this day.
Not to mention becoming a god.
Thinking of this, Xiao Wu felt a surge of overwhelming emotion welling up inside her.
Gratitude, attachment, and that deep-seated, bittersweet love.
She hugged her knees tightly and buried her face in her arms.
"A-Qing... you'll probably never know how important you are to me."
Just thinking about Lin Qingmo made her rub her legs together.
[Daddy Douluo]: Since you think this path won't work, then listen to the second path, which is to Sacrifice to a human Soul Master.
This message was released.
Ice Empress couldn't hold back immediately.
[Bingbing]:???
[Bingbing]: Are you kidding me?
[Bingbing]: Sacrifice? Isn't that just becoming Spirit Ring for humans? What's the difference between that and dying?
[Little White-Eyed Wolf]: Uh, yeah, Sacrifice Soul Beast is just killing it, what kind of method is that?
[Little Witch]: I didn't understand it either.
Several people in the group expressed their confusion at the same time.
In the understanding of all Soul Master, Sacrifice has only one meaning: the death of Soul Beast, which is transformed into Spirit Ring and Soul Bone and absorbed by the Soul Master.
Isn't that just death?
But Snow Empress's reaction was completely different.
She raised an eyebrow slightly, thinking that Lin Qingmo wouldn't play games with them like that.
[Heavenly Snow Woman]: Daddy Douluo, what exactly do you mean by "Sacrifice"?
Her intuition told her that Lin Qingmo wouldn't throw out a "go die" plan without a reason.
There must be something they don't know about this.
really,
[Daddy Douluo]: You all know what Sacrifice means.
[Daddy Douluo]: But in reality, when Soul Beast that is over 100,000 years old voluntarily Sacrifice itself, its soul does not dissipate, but resides in the Soul Bone produced by the Sacrifice.
[Daddy Douluo]: As long as the human Soul Master who carries the Soul Bone eventually becomes a god, the God can revive the soul residing in the Soul Bone.
[Mother Tyrannosaurus]: Is this even possible?
[A Rogue Rabbit]: A-Qing, is this for real or fake?
[Yanzi ~]: This is the first time I've heard of this expression.
Ice Empress was also stunned.
Her scorpion pincers opened and closed repeatedly, carving a neat row of pits into the ice.
"The soul... doesn't dissipate?"
"Can he be resurrected?"
"Xue'er, is this... believable?"
She subconsciously looked at Snow Empress.
The Snow Empress seemed to be deep in thought.
She did not respond directly to Bing'er, but instead shared her analysis in the Chat Group.
[Heavenly Snow Woman]: Assuming what you say is credible, then the core stakes of this path lie in two issues.
[Heavenly Snow Woman]: First, can a human Soul Master who carries Soul Bone become a god?
[Heavenly Snow Woman]: Second, after becoming a god, will humanity be willing to resurrect us?
[Heavenly Snow Woman]: These are both unknowns, and bringing them to us would be too risky a bet.
"That's right! How could humans possibly believe that?!"
Ice Empress has figured it out.
Would you really risk your life and over 300,000 cultivation points on the conscience of a human Soul Master?
She doesn't dare.
After all, in the eyes of Soul Beast, humans are despicable and untrustworthy.
"Xue'er is so thoughtful."
There's no need to consider the authenticity of this method at all.
Even if it were true, she wouldn't do it.
[Heavenly Snow Woman]: Are there any other methods? Something more reliable?
Lin Qingmo didn't keep them waiting too long.
[Daddy Douluo]: Hmm, I do have one last way.
[Daddy Douluo]: Submits to the person who is about to become a god and follows him into the Divine Realm as a subordinate.
[Daddy Douluo]: In the Divine Realm, you can transform with the help of divine power. Without the restrictions of the Douluo Continent's rules, you can completely transcend the limits and become divine beasts.
[Daddy Douluo]: This path does not require giving up cultivation, nor does it require Sacrifice.
[Daddy Douluo]: But one thing is needed, and that is absolute trust and loyalty.
Submit!
To the queen of the Far North, this word was more jarring than any Heavenly Tribulation.
They are Ferocious Beast.
It is an existence that stands at the top of the Soul Beast food chain.
To make them submit to a human?
"That's impossible!"
The hot-tempered one was the first to disagree.
"Xue'er, don't you think he's making fun of us?"
"..."
Snow Empress did not answer immediately.
She went through the three paths in her mind.
Reconstructing a human being is too risky.
The possibility of resurrection through Sacrifice is too high.
Those who submit to God do not need to give up anything.
But what they need to give up is the one thing that Soul Beast are least likely to give to humans: trust.
To expect a Soul Beast to trust a human Soul Master is utter nonsense.
"He wouldn't deliberately deceive us. Three paths are already laid out before us; there's no use in rushing now."
The Snow Empress closed her white eyes. "This matter can be discussed another day."
"At least he provided the way, which is more than any answer we've received in hundreds of thousands of years."
"..."
Ice Empress remained silent.
She knew very well that this information was more than what they had gained from hundreds of thousands of years of dedicated cultivation.
The Chat Group gradually quieted down.
Ice Empress and Snow Empress also fell silent.
Lin Qingmo turned off the Chat Group's Light Screen, a slight smile playing on his lips.
He seemed to have offered three paths.
In reality, only one path was presented.
That means following him.
They and Xiao Wu were potential gods standing before them.
He just didn't say it out loud.
Ice Empress and Snow Empress are Ferocious Beast; in the context of the Douluo Continent, they would be considered top-tier combatants.
If he can capture these two, he will have two more extremely important pieces on his chessboard.
But these things can't be rushed.
The seeds have been sown; now we just need to wait for them to sprout.
