Chapter 266 I didn’t expect that either.
Chapter 266 I didn’t expect that either.
Go ask about destruction and life, Tang San thought, secretly cursing this kid for being old-fashioned. Is his position as Sea God so bad?
But there is nothing to be done, after all, Minghui is not only the reincarnation of an old god, but also a believer in destruction and life.
He nodded slightly, maintaining his proper demeanor, "Yes!"
As he said that, he threw out a map and said, "This is where my inheritance is. If you have figured it out, you can go there anytime."
You think too much, I am the man you will never get!
Minghui looked flattered, and took it carefully, then bowed again and said politely, "Thank you for your kindness, senior."
Tang San's clone smiled and disappeared on the spot. At the same time, a passage was separated from the mist behind him.
Minghui said no more and turned to walk towards the passage.
At the same time, on the other side, under the Ancient Tree of Life, the God of Destruction said, "Ji Dong, during this period of time, you should secretly keep an eye on the movements of the Sea God, and also pay attention to Minghui. If Tang San follows the rules, today's incident can be forgiven. But if he violates the rules again, or even forcibly interferes with Minghui's choice and misleads the old gods, then we can only deal with it impartially and punish him for multiple crimes."
"Okay." Ji Dong nodded slightly.
Every old god who participated in the war that year made great contributions to the God Realm. Any act of coercion by any god is a blasphemy and challenge to the rules and reputation of the God Realm. Tang San's behavior today can at most be regarded as taking advantage of the loopholes in the rules of the God Realm. He did not do anything too excessive, nor did he force Minghui, an old god, to reincarnate. Even if the organizing committee questioned him, at most he would give him a warning.
But after all, there are signs, and the one who committed the crime is the God of law enforcement, so it is reasonable and fair to ask him to cooperate in the secret investigation.
As for private matters, what his wife said just now was very correct. It was better to be on guard against people like Tang San who dared to use his daughter and brother. He should not be allowed to monopolize power. In addition, they had just entered the God Realm, so they really needed to find a way to improve their reputation.
"Lord Destruction, let's go back first." Ji Dong continued.
If we continue to stay here, it would be bad if we were discovered by Tang San.
"Okay." The God of Destruction nodded slightly.
Ji Dong took his wife away and prepared to go to the center of the divine realm to watch the next developments together.
On the other side, Poseidon Temple.
Xiao Wu was indignant, "Destruction and Life are too much. They actually agreed to borrow power. This is basically cheating!"
"Third brother, are you really going to pass on the throne to this kid? He is now a believer in destruction and life!"
Tang San's face was calm, "Who can say for sure what will happen in the future?"
After saying this, he looked at Huo Yuhao who was in another space, frowning slightly. Compared with Minghui, Huo Yuhao's performance was much worse, and he was being beaten by his other clone. Apart from showing a strong will, everything else made him dissatisfied.
When he thought about how he failed to defeat Minghui and was instead defeated, he suddenly became angry and immediately used his spiritual sense to control his clone.
He chased after Huo Yuhao and beat him up!
“Humph, he actually took out his anger on a child. He is really petty!” Lieyan, who had just arrived at the center of the God Realm to watch, said with disdain, “I used to think he was a generous and fair god, but I didn’t expect that he was actually a hypocrite behind the scenes.”
"To be honest, I didn't expect that either." Ji Dong sighed.
"Brother Dong, we can't let Tang San gain power again, otherwise our lives will definitely not be easy." Lieyan continued.
Ji Dong nodded slightly.
Within sight, Minghui walked out of the cloud area.
"Passed?" Ma Xiaotao, who was anxiously waiting outside, eyes lit up and she came forward immediately.
"It was a fluke." Minghui said with a smile as he walked closer.
"Minghui, what test did you encounter?" Wang Dong'er followed.
Huo Yuhao hasn't come out yet, and she is very worried.
"Fight against one of Senior Poseidon's clones." Minghui said, "If you can hold out for one stick of incense, you will pass the level and be rewarded with a suitable fairy grass. If you defeat the clone, it will be considered an overachievement. In addition to being rewarded with a fairy grass, you will also be qualified to become Senior Poseidon's successor and can go to his inheritance site at any time to participate in the legendary divine test. This is the map Senior gave me."
As he spoke, he raised the scroll in his hand.
"Wang Dong, if I really go there, according to seniority, would I be considered your ancestor?"
"You defeated the clone?!" Wang Dong was shocked. "Is it difficult?"
Zhang Lexuan and the other two girls were also surprised. This was a divine test! It was recorded in the Poseidon Pavilion. If you passed it, you could inherit the throne and become a god!
"That's not nonsense!" Youyou was also shocked, "The avatar of Lord Poseidon cannot be defeated by ordinary people!"
After saying that, she waved the petals and turned her tone to respect, "Master Minghui, since Master Poseidon said so, I have two magical herbs that are most suitable for you. You can choose one of them. One is the Longing for the Autumn Water Dew, which can greatly improve your mental strength after absorption. In addition, it has a miraculous effect on people who practice eye skills and can help them practice the Fiery Eyes and Golden Pupils. They can see through thousands of strange objects. The second is the Eight Anise Mysterious Ice Grass, but."
"It has intelligence just like me, so I can only convince it to give you the essence of the black ice it has accumulated over the years."
"As for itself, you may need to convince it yourself."
"Youyou, I choose Wangchuanqiushuilu." Minghui said without hesitation. Since Tang San asked Youyou to help recommend a suitable one, and even used the mist to cover up the other immortal herbs around, it was obvious that he had some reservations and didn't want him to look at the illustrations and choose for himself.
He guessed that it was probably because he was angry because of what he had suffered during the previous fight. If that was the case, why would he bother himself with trouble?
“He is so narrow-minded. He wants to win me over by inheriting the throne, but he doesn’t want me to grow too fast! Or does he feel that the gap in strength between me and Huo Yuhao, the grandson-in-law chosen by his daughter, is too big, and he loses face? Or maybe it’s both.” Minghui thought.
To be honest, he actually coveted the Acacia Heartbroken Red more, because the improvement was more comprehensive and greater, after all, a divine product was a divine product. And according to the description in the original book, there were exactly two plants in it, Wang Donger wanted one and didn't get it, so the remaining one could just be taken away, right?
But he probably won't be able to pick it because his heart is not single-minded.
As for the Star Anise Ice Grass, it is indeed not bad, but it has already developed intelligence and is not easy to eat directly. In terms of ice attribute energy intensity, it is not as strong as the Eternal Ice Crystal. If it is sacrificed, the overall improvement is not as good as the 100,000-year soul beast in the Far North, so forget it!
As for Wangchuanqiushuilu, it is also quite good. It can be said to be a perfect match for him. It can not only enhance his mental strength, but also improve his Su Yuetong eye skills. Maybe after absorbing it, it will also have an effect on the Eye of Living Beings.
In addition, perspective, which man doesn’t want to be greedy?
The most important thing is that we cannot let Huo Yuhao, a man, use it. It is better to be safe than sorry!
As he was thinking, he shook the leaves quietly, and the roots surged, directly pulling out the Forget-Me-Not Autumn Dew in the mist.
"Master Minghui, here is the method of taking it."
Inform the absorption method.
"Youyou, thank you." Minghui smiled, reached out to take it, and then sat down without hesitation to absorb the eye drops.
Ma Xiaotao took the map from Minghui and opened it on the spot to look at it with her sisters.
"Poseidon Island?" Wang Dong'er, who was watching along, murmured.
"So that's where it came from!" Ma Xiaotao followed up. Shrek Academy originally knew the location of Poseidon Island, but after the collision between Douluo Continent and Sun-Moon Continent thousands of years ago, the geographical coordinates of Poseidon Island also changed, and the academy never found it.
"Hey, it is said that the Sea God went with his companions. Can we go with him?"
“According to the academy’s records, when the first generation of the Shrek Seven Devils returned from Poseidon Island, their strength had greatly increased!” “I feel that’s possible!” Wang Dong’er’s eyes lit up.
"According to my eldest and second fathers, the foundation for the first generation of Shrek Seven Devils to become gods was laid here."
Hearing this, even Ling Luochen's eyes warmed up.
Zhang Lexuan remained calm and shook her head, saying, "Let's discuss this with Xiaohui after returning to the academy before making a decision."
In the Divine Realm, Tang San saw all of this, with a gleam of confidence in his eyes.
As long as Minghui can bring his daughter to Poseidon Island, his territory, to participate in the test, he will have plenty of ways to make his daughter become a god.
Minghui didn't know this. At that moment, he only felt his eyes cool and his mind became clear. Things that he couldn't understand before suddenly became clear. He must seize this rare opportunity to sort out his own abilities and gain further understanding.
Just for this opportunity of deep understanding, he felt that the decision was worth it.
An incense stick of time passed quickly, and Huo Yuhao staggered out of the fog with a bruised face and nose, looking horrific.
Wang Dong'er's eyes suddenly turned red, and she exclaimed, "Yuhao!"
He quickly ran forward to support her.
“Dong’er, don’t be afraid, I’m fine, I just have some minor injuries.” Huo Yuhao pulled the corner of his mouth and comforted her softly.
"You said you were okay, but you were beaten so badly." Wang Dong'er said in a crying voice.
In my heart, I was not happy with this Sea God. A test is a test, but how can he bully others like this? ?
Huo Yuhao didn’t care at all. Instead, he turned to look at Youyou and said seriously, “Youyou, I passed the test!”
Youyou shook his body and commented, "Human, you are very brave!"
“However, whether you can pick the Acacia Heartbreak Red depends on you.” As he said this, he stretched out the pistil and controlled the ancient book to float over.
Huo Yuhao quickly reached out to take it and nodded slightly, "Junior understands."
"Yuhao, there is no need to rush. You should regulate your breathing and recover first." Zhang Lexuan said at this time.
“Okay.” Huo Yuhao nodded, and with the help of Wang Donger, he sat cross-legged on the spot to regulate his breathing.
Zhang Lexuan said no more, and waited quietly beside Minghui with Ma Xiaotao and Ling Luochen, continuing to protect him in order to absorb the magic grass.
After a long time, Minghui slowly opened his eyes, with a hint of silver light flickering in his pupils, as if he could see through everything.
In the field of vision, Zhang Lexuan's outline was clear, as was Huo Yuhao who was further away. Only Tang Wutong next to her was shrouded in a ball of golden light.
"Tang San, you are worthy of being me!" Minghui thought to himself.
He immediately controlled the overflowing energy and brought it back together. The silver light in his eyes faded away, and his vision directly in front of him returned to normal.
"Minghui, please help Yuhao get treatment quickly." Wang Donger's voice sounded a little anxious.
“He was beaten so hard?” Minghui looked at Huo Yuhao, who was beaten so badly that even his mother couldn’t recognize him and whose face was still swollen. He was shocked and quickly stood up and sent a ray of life light to Huo Yuhao, and the latter’s external injuries quickly dissipated.
Huo Yuhao also woke up at this time and said with gratitude, "Thank you, Senior Brother."
"It's a small matter." Minghui nodded, then asked, "Have you also encountered the avatar of Senior Sea God?"
Huo Yuhao smiled bitterly and nodded, "Luckily I managed to hold out for an incense stick of time."
Youyou saw Huo Yuhao stand up and said, "According to the rules, only those who pass the test can pass."
Upon hearing this, Huo Yuhao immediately turned around and said, “Dong’er, wait here for a while. I’ll go pick some Acacia Heartbreak Red and bring it out. You can eat it and cure your illness before taking part in the test.”
"Let's read the book first to understand more about the situation." Minghui said at the right time.
Huo Yuhao slapped his forehead and said hurriedly, "Brother, you are right!"
As he spoke, he took out a book from his arms and read it with Minghui and others. Youyou did not stop him, and neither did Tang San, because he knew that even if he stopped them now, Huo Yuhao would tell Minghui the contents of the book after they left. Moreover, even if Minghui and others knew the information about the fairy grass, they could not take the fairy grass from here without his permission. As for other places, it depends on luck.
After a while, several people finished reading it.
Minghui said, "Junior brother, just in case, I will go with you."
“Okay, senior brother.” Huo Yuhao nodded.
Upon hearing this, Youyou shook the branches and leaves to create a passage for the two of them, leading directly to the Acacia Heartbreak Red. The other magical herbs were still shrouded in mist and were completely invisible.
Minghui didn't care and walked in with Huo Yuhao. They soon arrived in front of the Acacia Heartbreak Red.
The four girls stood quietly outside and looked into the distance. The fog on both sides of the passage had not closed, so they could see two people.
Huo Yuhao half-knelt down, raised his hand and patted his chest, then spat out his blood and poured it onto the leaves.
The petals trembled violently, then were covered with a layer of frost but did not fall off.
“How could this happen? How could this happen?!” Huo Yuhao was horrified. The blood in his heart was actually frozen.
Feeling the high temperature coming from not far away, that was a hot spring meeting the extreme cold, and also the source of the rising fog, an idea immediately came to my mind.
"I must pick it, Dong'er needs it!" He stood up suddenly and ran towards the hot spring.
"Junior brother, what are you doing?" Minghui, who had anticipated this, rushed over and pressed Yuhao's shoulder.
“Senior Brother, it’s me!” Huo Yuhao turned his head.
"Boy, are you trying to swallow the hot spring to balance your attributes?" Minghui said speechlessly.
Huo Yuhao's face flushed red as he said in pain, "Brother, apart from this method, I really can't think of any other way."
On the other side, Wang Dong'er was completely shocked, tears welled up in her eyes, and she quickly exclaimed, "Yuhao, don't!"
"Dong'er, I." Huo Yuhao looked over with red eyes.
"You probably forgot that your sister Xiao Tao is here too." Minghui shook his head. "Why don't you let her transfer some fire attribute soul power to you to help you balance things out? You're thinking of swallowing hot spring water with your flesh and blood. Aren't you afraid that your internal organs will be burned? You can't even save your own life, so how can you save Wang Dong? How can Wang Dong save you later? Have you forgotten what your senior brother taught you to stay calm?"
Huo Yuhao's eyes lit up with hope, and he said hurriedly, "I'm sorry, Senior Brother. I was impulsive at the moment."
