Lin Xiao wasn’t greedy, mainly because he couldn’t give away all his battle qi.
The subsequent transformation would also take time, and Lin Xiao didn’t want to use up all his battle qi.
The three-eyed golden lion did not stop him, nodded in agreement, and then stared at Lin Xiao with wide eyes.
The way it looked seemed to be saying, “I want it, I want that energy.”
Lin Xiao smiled and looked at the Crimson King: “Crimson King, do you want to verify my energy, just in case something goes wrong?”
The Red King paused for a moment, then used its three heads to think it over and realized that what the other party said made sense.
“Okay, let me verify it first.”
“You are a friend of the auspicious beast, and I trust you, but this is also my duty.”
The Red King explained.
Lin Xiao didn’t mind.
He pretended to force out a burst of energy from his hand, but actually took it from his ring.
Battle energy condensed in Lin Xiao’s hand, and was imprisoned by the energy within his body.
The Crimson King sensed it and found nothing wrong: “Your energy is somewhat high-level, but there’s too little of it; it’s of little use to me.”
“If I were at your level, I would also find this amount of energy useless.”
Lin Xiao smiled and handed the energy in his hand to the Three-Eyed Golden Lion.
Then, the Three-Eyed Golden Lion clapped its paws, releasing a burst of brilliant golden energy.
Its brow opened, revealing a vertical eye.
The battle qi that Lin Xiao handed over was enveloped by the energy of the Three-Eyed Golden Lion.
Seeing this, Lin Xiao gave out four more.
The Three-Eyed Golden Lion followed the same method, enveloping the four energies and happily storing them away, looking at Lin Xiao with satisfaction.
“Awoo awoo.” The three-eyed golden lion roared again as it looked at Lin Xiao.
The Crimson King continued translating: “The auspicious beast says, ‘What kind of spirit ring do you need?
Go and catch one for you now.'”
The Three-Eyed Golden Lion is quite trustworthy.
Lin Xiao nodded and carefully sensed his martial spirit.
“A dark-attribute dragon-type soul beast that is about 1,500 years old.”
Is this okay?
Lin Xiao wasn’t sure if he could absorb a soul ring that had been around for so many years, but he knew he needed to cultivate soul power.
After conversion, the amount of soul power flowing into the body will not be that much.
But there’s a limit.
1500 years, that’s what the old doctor told him before.
Otherwise, he would have liked to try 2000 years.
Dragon-type soul beasts are of a very high level.
Thousand-year-old soul beasts contain far more soul power than ordinary soul beasts.
“You’re quite the prude, aren’t you?”
“A dragon-type soul beast, you dare to speak up?
Aren’t you afraid that Di Tian will cause you trouble?”
Lin Xiao chuckled: “Didn’t you tell me to say it?
No way, no way, the mighty Crimson King wouldn’t try to cheat a level 10 Soul Master like me, would he?”
“Hmph, how could that be?
You wait here, take good care of the auspicious beast, I’ll be right back.”
The Crimson King snorted coldly.
How dare they underestimate him, you wretched humans!
The three-eyed golden lion laughed and leaped into Lin Xiao’s arms, where it rested.
It seems she really likes the fighting spirit emanating from Lin Xiao.
In less than three minutes, the Red King returned carrying a giant black and purple dragon.
“Kid, hurry up and absorb it, hmph!”
The Red King was extremely disdainful.
Before Lin Xiao could kill the dragon, the Three-Eyed Golden Lion made its move, arrogantly walking up to the dragon, pointing at Lin Xiao, and howling a few times.
Lin Xiao paused.
Could this little guy be asking the giant dragon to sacrifice itself for him?
“Wait a minute, auspicious beast, do you want it to sacrifice itself for me?”
Lin Xiao quickly stopped the other party.
The Three-Eyed Golden Lion nodded, and Lin Xiao’s face lit up with joy.
He then shamelessly said, “Um, um, could I change to a different soul beast?
Since it’s a sacrifice, 1,500 years seems a bit too short.”
“Hey kid, don’t push your luck.
You don’t know how rare dragon-type soul beasts are, even after 1,500 years?”
“Want an even longer lifespan?
Dream on.”
“No way!!”
The Crimson King immediately intervened, saying that humans were indeed greedy and he didn’t know whether it was good or bad for the auspicious beast to befriend him.
Lin Xiao chuckled and said, “Never mind, there’s always next time.
I’ll trick you guys again.”
Lin Xiao also noticed the Red King’s displeasure and did not push his luck any further.
1,500 years it is, I should have just called it 1,500 years from the beginning.
“What a blunder,” Lin Xiao said with a look of regret.
The next moment, the dragon obeyed the command and sacrificed itself for Lin Xiao.
Because of the sacrifice, the soul power became much milder.
Lin Xiao didn’t hesitate and immediately began the transformation.
The Three-Eyed Golden Lion noticed that the energy had reappeared and immediately ran to Lin Xiao’s side, enjoying this rare warmth.
The Red King observed carefully, his eyes full of doubt.
His three heads were itchy; he couldn’t figure it out, so he stopped thinking about it, because if he kept thinking, he would grow a brain.
It took Lin Xiao a long time to wake up from his cultivation.
Lin Xiao’s body shone with a dark purple light, and a purple soul ring appeared beneath his feet.
“Auspicious beast, stay away from me.”
As soon as the soul skill was unleashed, darkness instantly enveloped a three-meter radius centered on Lin Xiao, instantly increasing Lin Xiao’s strength by thirty percent, and the attack was imbued with dragon might.
He felt that with the Eight Extremes Collapse technique, he could completely crush a thousand-year-old soul beast.
Now, the conversion of soul power can be accelerated again.
Feeling the darkness, the Crimson King clicked his tongue twice: “You brat, aren’t you afraid of being mistaken for an evil spirit master?”
(PS: The reason for including the dark attribute is that we will be setting up the Holy Spirit Cult later on.
Also, power itself is neither good nor bad.
Isn’t it all just Shrek Academy’s one-man rule anyway?
Evil fire is still evil.)
“According to you, Zi Ji and Di Tian are also darkness.
Does that mean we humans should kill them?” (PS: The protagonist will say this later, and an explanation will be given.
Around chapter 22.)
Lin Xiao replied irritably, “This guy really doesn’t know how to talk.”
The Red King scratched his head.
What he said seemed to make some sense, but why did it sound a little unpleasant?
“I can’t argue with you, hmph.”
The Crimson King didn’t say much to Lin Xiao.
Lin Xiao withdrew his soul skill and martial soul, and gently picked up the Three-Eyed Golden Lion.
“I’m leaving.
If I don’t show up in three months…”
“Then can we postpone the transaction?”
Lin Xiao gently rubbed the head of the three-eyed golden lion and spoke in a gentle voice.
The three-eyed golden lion nodded: “Awoo awoo.”
The Crimson King translated: “The auspicious beast says yes.”
“Furthermore, you should stop hunting those low-level soul beasts.”
Lin Xiao gave an awkward smile: “Don’t worry.”
After handing the Three-Eyed Golden Lion to the Crimson King, Lin Xiao prepared to leave.
He had only taken two steps when he turned back and said, “Auspicious Beast, if you wish to take human form, I will name you.”
After saying that, Lin Xiao left.
The auspicious beast seemed to be deep in thought.
“Transform into human form?
Perhaps.”
“You rascal, you dare to try and seduce the auspicious beast?
You’ve got some nerve!”
“I’ll definitely teach him a lesson next time.”
Before the Crimson King could finish speaking, the Three-Eyed Golden Lion glared at him.
The Red King awkwardly turned his head away.
After leaving the Crimson King’s territory, the old apothecary spoke up: “Little fellow, the third eye of that auspicious beast contains the power of destiny.”
