Douluo's Blue Silver Family

Chapter 148 Jinlian's Past

So, because of Catherine, Yuan Changqing and the other two stayed in this strange place.

Catherine arrived at the place where the golden lotus grew and sat down to begin cultivating. The rich golden elemental soul power around the golden lotus made Catherine's martial soul feel very comfortable.

Suddenly, during Catherine's cultivation, she received a message from the Golden Lotus in her sea of ​​consciousness.

Then, Catherine also asked the Golden Lotus telepathically, "Are you the Golden Lotus? Were you the one who was sending me messages before?"

"Yes, I need your help, so I started sending you a message after I sensed you were here. I just didn't expect it to take you so many days to get here," Jinlian replied.

Catherine then asked, "Golden Lotus, you must be incredibly powerful to have created that strange place. Why do you still need my help? Do you want me to help you find another place?"

Jinlian sent another message, saying, "I'm not at my peak anymore. I imagine you're curious why I'm in this place!"

"Yeah, how come you grow underground?"

Jinlian continued, "I originally grew up in a place rich in metal ore, and I was born alongside metal elements. However, after I absorbed all the metal ore in that place, I gradually reached the level of a 100,000-year-old soul beast."

Upon hearing that Jinlian was a 100,000-year-old soul beast, Catherine exclaimed in surprise, "Ah! You're a 100,000-year-old soul beast?"

"Yes, I don't know how many years have passed, and I'm still stuck at the level of a 100,000-year-old soul beast. But I'm almost done for. If you hadn't come here, I might have died soon," Jinlian said, her tone a mixture of disappointment and delight.

"Ah! What's going on? Has your strength remained stagnant for 100,000 years without any improvement?" Catherine asked, somewhat puzzled.

Jinlian said with a hint of sadness, "Yes, when I reached the level of a 100,000-year-old soul beast, I needed to undergo a tribulation of lightning. Although I successfully passed it, I also suffered severe damage to my origin."

Catherine then asked, "So how did you get here?"

Jinlian replied, "As for how I got here, I don't know if it was good luck or bad luck. At that time, I was injured during my tribulation, and it was a primal injury. I was on the verge of death and could die at any moment."

"However, just when I thought I might die, I met a Soul Master. I originally wanted to sacrifice myself to him, but his strength had not yet met the requirements. So, I asked him to help me find a temporary place to stay, and I would sacrifice myself to him after he met the requirements."

Catherine said, "So, he put you here?"

"Yes, this place used to be rich in metal deposits. Because I was injured, he placed me underground. I barely survived thanks to the metal elements here. In the end, I never saw that person again. He probably settled me in and then encountered danger after he came out!" Jinlian sighed.

When Catherine thought about the outside world and the scene in this strange place, she understood why it had become like this. It turned out to be caused by the Golden Lotus. But why did it also cause that attack on the sea of ​​consciousness?

So Catherine voiced her doubts, asking, "Then why did this place attack our consciousness when we entered?"

Jinlian added, "I imagine you're feeling quite comfortable here right now!"

Without hesitation, Catherine replied, "Yes, since I came to this place, although my sea of ​​consciousness has been attacked, I feel very comfortable here, which is why we were able to find this place."

Jinlian replied, "That's because I'm about to die. My primordial injury has worsened, and the essence of my Golden Lotus body is slowly overflowing. I can no longer control my injuries."

"Moreover, the reason you feel comfortable here is because you are a metal-attribute soul master. This environment is the best place for you to cultivate, which is why you unconsciously like it here."

Then, Catherine thought that even if that was the reason, why did she feel that there would be opportunities for her here when she was outside? She thought that it might also be Jinlian's doing!

Catherine then asked, "So, even before I came in, I had a feeling that there would be an opportunity for me here, and that was also because of you?"

Jinlian replied, "Indeed, although my essence overflowed and spread throughout this area, it was originally from my own body. So, when you came here, I sensed through those gold elements that you also carried a powerful gold element. Therefore, I transmitted information to you through those gold elements, which is why you felt that there was an opportunity for you here."

Catherine nodded and said, "No wonder I had this inexplicable feeling that there would be an opportunity for me here as soon as I arrived. So, how can I help you? Are you going to offer yourself as a sacrifice to me?"

Jinlian replied, "Yes, I also want to live and don't want to die like this. Given my situation, I have no choice but to sacrifice myself to you. Moreover, among the three of you, you are the most suitable candidate, since we all possess the element of gold."

Catherine then asked, "But I'm not yet ready to accept your sacrifice to me!"

Jinlian said, "Don't worry, I can feel the powerful soul energy in your body. Once you've absorbed all the primordial metal elements that I've released, I think you'll be ready to accept my sacrifice."

Catherine was still thinking about discussing it with Yuan Changqing later, so she said, "Alright, although I really want your 100,000-year soul ring, it's too early to talk about it now. Let's wait until I meet the requirements to accept the sacrifice."

Jinlian replied, "Then you must hurry up and cultivate here, I may not be able to hold on for much longer."

"Um."

...

After Catherine finished her cultivation with Jinlian and came out, she repeated what Jinlian had said to Yuan Changqing and Wang Yuyan.

Catherine asked, "Honey, do you think there might be a trap here?"

Yuan Changqing thought for a moment and said, "I don't know, but it might really be because it wants to live, and it thinks you have good aptitude, so it might be able to help it revive in the future."

Catherine asked in confusion, "Why? I don't have that ability either!"

Therefore, Yuan Changqing thought of the seed left behind by the Blue Silver Emperor A Yin after her sacrifice, and wondered if Jinlian might have the same intention.

Then, Yuan Changqing explained, "This is not a matter of ability or not. Rather, after a plant-type soul beast sacrifices itself, it can leave behind a seed, which is why the Golden Lotus can be resurrected later."
