Chapter 740 I'm Not Sleeping Anymore

In fact, Youxiang Qiluo Flower was somewhat self-aware, because Chen Ping was seriously considering how to kill Youxiang Qiluo Flower and deal with the immortal items in the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Eye.

However, after calming down, Chen Ping realized that even if he really uprooted the Fragrant Qiluo Immortal Item, would Tang San care?
No, from the very beginning, Tang San saw the Fragrant Silk Immortal Product as nothing more than a rag to wipe his feet, something to be used and then discarded.

He was merely venting his anger on the Fragrant Silk Fairy, which didn't actually have much meaning.

Seeing Chen Ping stroll out of the Emperor Hantian Domain, the Fragrant Qiluo Immortal Flower trembled, extremely flustered.

"Chen Chen Chen Chen Ping".

Youxiang Qiluo Xianpin was speaking haltingly; she had only lived for over ten thousand years and didn't want to die.

That's why, even though she knew that nothing she did would make a difference, as Chen Ping approached step by step, the Fragrant Silk Fairy Item still instantly closed up, turning into a huge flower bud. Then, a small purple stamen peeked out from inside, looking at Chen Ping with extreme caution and a hint of pleading.

“You’ve really messed things up for us,” Chen Ping said with a smile. “Now it’s my turn to mess with you.”

"I was careless this time, but since you and Tang San didn't manage to take me down, you should be prepared for me to mess with you, right?"

Although Chen Ping said these words with a smile, Youxiang Qiluo Xianpin could not smile at all at this moment.

"I...I'll give you the Heart of Qiluo, okay? I did listen to Tang San and wanted to harm you in exchange for Tang San's reward. I'm not lying to you, but...I..."

Youxiang Qiluo Xianpin, having never witnessed the wickedness of the human world, quickly confessed her motives for conspiring with Tang San to harm the auspicious beast. It was precisely because of her straightforwardness that Youxiang Qiluo Xianpin couldn't even find an excuse to defend herself.

Yes, she herself admitted that she harmed the auspicious beast for Tang San's reward. Even if Chen Ping were to take action now and retaliate in kind, what could she do?

"At least, please don't take your anger out on the other immortals in the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well. The thing that was done to harm you was done by me for my own selfish reasons, and it has nothing to do with them."

The pink petals of the fragrant and elegant fairy flower trembled slightly, and a ball of purple light slowly rose from its stamen.

The purple light looked very gentle, without any domineering aura. It was just a purple bead the size of a cherry, which looked a lot like amethyst.

But inside those crystal-clear beads, one could faintly see a layer of light, like mist, pulsating slightly, which was quite strange.

Chen Ping learned his lesson this time. He scooped up the object and tossed it directly into his storage soul tool without touching it with his hands.

"you"

Just as Chen Ping was about to end the matter there, Electrolux's voice rang in his mind.

"Chen Ping, you and the auspicious beast, come to the Crimson King's Sea of ​​Spirit again."

"Yes."

Chen Ping slowly lowered his raised hand, took a deep look at the Fragrant and Exquisite Immortal Item, and then turned and walked back.

At this moment, only a few minutes had passed within the Crimson King's sea of ​​consciousness. Even with Chen Ping's naked eye, he could sense that the spider silk had spread significantly further across the sea of ​​consciousness. Unless the Crimson King's soul was completely frozen, it was clear that the Divine Sense Spider's erosion of the Crimson King's sea of ​​consciousness was virtually unstoppable.

"Uncle Red King, how about I take you back with me and hibernate together? A hundred years will pass quickly, in the blink of an eye."

The auspicious beast forced a smile, trying its best to make the Crimson King relax.

"No, I will not sleep anymore."

The Crimson King shook his head, causing the auspicious beast's expression to change.

"However, what I chose was not to cut off half of the Sea of ​​Spirit, but the third option."

The Crimson King slowly spoke: "Although Senior Electrox only mentioned two options, I was already thinking about whether there was a way to continue protecting you as much as possible without giving up your memories."

"Since you have already been targeted by the gods of the upper realm, your idea of ​​finding a place to hibernate and peacefully spend a hundred years is probably nonsense."

"This scheme against you is only the beginning, not the end. If I really choose to freeze my soul for a hundred years, I'm afraid it will be too late when Chen Ping heals me and I wake up."

"So, I thought of Senior Snow Empress's state, that so-called soul spirit state. If this state can allow me to retain most of my memories, and at the same time, I can protect you to some extent, it would probably be a good choice."

"Besides, you know that Chen Ping is probably the most promising person in the human world of this era to reach the level 100 godhood realm again. Since I'm going to gamble that Chen Ping will come to cure my divine poison after reaching level 100, why not just choose to become his soul spirit?"

"When one attains enlightenment, even his chickens and dogs ascend to heaven," is a common saying in the human world. If he truly reaches level 100 and becomes a god one day, I'll never have to worry about the heavenly tribulations again, hahaha!

The Crimson King's voice was somewhat cheerful, but it caught Chen Ping and the auspicious beast off guard, completely unexpected that the Crimson King would make such a choice.

"Senior Crimson King, what is this?"

Chen Ping's face was full of confusion. Even if the Crimson King transformed into a spirit state, half of his spiritual sea was already polluted. How could the integrity of the spirit's memories be guaranteed?

As he was thinking this, Chen Ping suddenly realized something. Apart from Hyotei and Hachikaku in the original work, Snow Empress, Tianmeng, and the Mermaid Princess were all in pretty bad condition before they became Soul Spirits!
They either only have a wisp of primordial power left, or they were previously drained of all their spiritual energy, or they were harmed by evil soul masters and left with only their souls. Does this affect their ability to become Huo Yuhao's soul spirit?

No, the mermaid princess's soul essence has been destroyed, her soul power is only half left, her spiritual sea is completely depleted, and her life force is almost gone, but the soul ritual can still be successfully completed.

Realizing this, Chen Ping understood that the Crimson King's suggestion was not something he had come up with on a whim, but rather...
“I also asked Senior Electrox. Although a part of my spiritual sea is polluted, the state of my soul will change during the formation of the soul ritual. At that time, I can take the opportunity to strip away this divine thought and introduce it into your body.”

"In this way, with a little preparation, Senior Electrox will be able to capture this divine thought alive, and use it to search the soul to see if he can find any valuable information."

“Chen Ping, even a person who lives for a thousand days will eventually die, and a soul beast is no exception. You promised the auspicious beast that you would help it kill this person.”

"You don't need to feel guilty because I became your spirit. My choice to stand in front of you was my own choice, and it has nothing to do with anyone else."

"I only ask that you also promise me that you will kill this person in the future, so that for the sake of the auspicious beast and the entire Star Dou Forest, this thorn in our side will be eliminated forever. That will be enough."
