Chapter 688 It’s Broken, He Really Became a Jūchūriki
Star Spirit Realm, Lohmadi Great Abyss.
In front of the exit of the Tower of Order, Mu You walked out dusty, took out a handful of divine crystals from his bag, and threw it into his mouth like eating jelly beans.
After identifying the direction, Mu You walked out of the abyss, taking out a handful of crystals and eating them again on the way.
After a large number of players went to Gaotian, the value of divine crystals has dropped significantly, but a crystal will never be cheaper than a year's life. If he just grabs it, it will have a life span of at least a hundred years.
At this time, any player who doesn't know what he is doing will probably feel pain for his wasteful behavior. How could he do this?
Mu You didn't care, one after another, transforming into a gold-swallowing beast that couldn't get enough to eat.
Until a few minutes later, he dug into the bag but found it empty. The bag contained nearly 300,000 divinity pills, and he swallowed them all. Instead of being annoyed, Mu You was pleasantly surprised and hurriedly used the omniscient crystal to look inside. Checked his panel.
[Energy value: 297/297]
Sure enough, the energy value deducted to zero by the insect slough has returned to normal.
Mu You breathed a sigh of relief. It was not easy. He had no shortage of divine crystals, but swallowing three hundred thousand crystals was also a big project.
From the time he received the caller's message half a day ago to the time he returned to the Star Spirit Realm, he ate for 12 hours and almost vomited before finally finishing the meal.
At this point, he was completely free from the influence of the Ringing Forest. His body panel returned to the level before entering the Ringing Forest. In addition, his force sensitivity and defense were greatly improved.
At this moment his panel properties are:
Strength: 248
Agility: 346
Intelligence: 297
Constitution: 454
Divine system resistance: 29.7%
There are also four other wind abilities inherited from Qilin, as well as the mechanic's final work, the 'Red Sky Battle Suit', which are all harvested from this trip to the Ring Forest.
After searching near the exit of the abyss, Mu You quickly found the watchman in a dense forest.
When they found him, the night watchman was half-lying on a big tree, with a blindfold on his face, sleeping unaware of anyone else, and his snoring could be heard far away.
Mu You was speechless for a moment. This was an abyss. There were countless wolves, insects, tigers and leopards around. It was a blessing that he could sleep...
"Who is it? Oh, the real body..."
Mu You stepped on a dead branch, and the watchman above suddenly woke up like a nightmare. He looked down in panic, and then he breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that it was Mu You. He stretched out and jumped down from the tree, still yawning again and again. .
"What does Ju She want to say?" Mu You asked.
He came back precisely because of Gu Snake's request. He said he had something very important, but he refused to let the watchman convey it to him, so Mu You had to come back in person.
"Who knows? I asked it and it said that I can't make the decision and have to wait for you to come and talk in person." The watchman spread his hands and put his hands on Mu You's shoulders.
Immediately, the consciousness of the two people entered the consciousness of the watchman.
In the pure white boundless sea of consciousness space, the two people fell from the sky and landed on a piece of water full of mist.
The watchman waved his hand to disperse the mist, and in the space ahead, the figure of a giant snake entangled on a high tower was revealed.
Cain huddled in the shadow in the corner of the space with a helpless expression, his arms folded around his knees, saying nothing, looking at the two of them gloomily, like a little boy who had been bullied for a long time.
Mu You and the watchman stepped across the water and came to the front of the tower.
This time, the snake didn't pretend to be serious. When he noticed the two people arriving, a snake head suddenly popped out from the clouds in the sky and stretched out in front of the two people. The snake stretched and contracted and spoke human words.
"Boy, Huangwu is controlled by someone!" Gu She went straight to the point.
"Ah?" The first person to be confused was the watchman.
The watchman scratched his head and thought to himself, I was also there when Huang Wu was beaten. Was Huang Wu being controlled? Why didn't I see it?
"Ha, of course you can't tell." Gu She sneered: "But as a natural disaster beast, I feel very clearly that there is something unspeakable in Huang Wu, just like a prisoner tied by iron chains, he is suffering all the time. It is suffering huge pain, and the reason why it takes action against us is not because it wants to protect those god-devouring beasts, but because it was ordered by the person behind it to take action. "
"Is this why you insist on chasing it?" Mu You touched his chin.
After the God-devouring beasts outside the forest retreated and fled, Gu She insisted on letting the watchmen chase them. This approach was not in line with Gu She's character, not to mention what would happen if all the thousand God-devouring beasts were killed? It does no good to the snake itself.
"That's right."
Gu She admitted this frankly: "At first, I just felt the aura of Huangwu in that base. I guessed that it was hiding nearby, but I didn't dare to show up. Something was obviously wrong, so I followed it to take a look."
"It wasn't until Huangwu was forced to show up and I personally fought with it that I finally confirmed this: there is a will controlling Huangwu's actions remotely. Once it dares to resist, it will suffer tremendous pain!"
"No way? Huangwu is a natural disaster beast, equivalent to the world's boss. Who has such great ability to enslave a disaster beast?" The watcher was surprised.
"Yes, natural disaster beasts almost represent the top of biological strength. There is only one kind of power that can enslave disaster beasts..." Ju She said, looking at Mu You with meaning.
Mu You breathed out, already understanding what Ju She wanted to say.
The power of heaven, and it must be a powerful and mature power of heaven! For example, he also has a certain amount of heavenly power, but with his immature power, it is simply impossible to completely enslave the snake.
Currently, he only knows of one person who possesses this level of heavenly power: the God of Chaos.
At that time in the City of Order, Mu You had a brief confrontation with the God of Chaos. The comparison of the power of heaven between the two at that time was like the difference between Yinghuo and Haoyue. The power of heaven displayed by the God of Chaos at that time It's so powerful that it's not impossible to control the beast.
And now things make sense. No wonder Huang Wu would help the beast for no reason. It turns out that it has already been enslaved by the God of Chaos.
"So? You came to me because..." Mu You looked at Ju She.
"That person has the ability to control Huangwu, and naturally he also has the ability to control other natural disaster beasts. Especially my uncle's body is still trapped at the bottom of the cave, and it is even easier to control it. Once you fools are defeated, I will not even be able to escape. No chance..."
Ju She spat out the letter and stared at Mu You with her eyes: "So, let's cooperate!"
"Oh? How do you plan to cooperate?"
"I don't want to be like that stupid bird, being tied up on a leash and becoming a hawk praying for mercy at others' feet. And you fools, you also need my strength to fight against Huang Wu."
Ju Snake said: "We both have the same goal, and we will benefit from our cooperation. As long as you release my true body, I promise to help you fight against Huang Wu!"
"Oh! Are you kidding me?" The watcher was confused. He never expected that this was what Gu She wanted to talk to his body.
"How is it possible! I don't know you yet? If you are released, you will definitely run away immediately...and the main body. What does your hesitant expression mean? Say no!" The person who called the watcher turned around, only to find Mu You He seemed to be thinking seriously and hurriedly tried to dissuade him.
"Shut up! It's different this time. I'm serious." Ju She frowned and glared at the watchman, then looked at Mu You and said, "If you don't believe it, you can use your power of heaven to write an express contract. You You should know that even natural disaster beasts cannot violate the contract of heaven..."
"The contract of heaven? Is it reliable?" The watchman looked at Mu You. He can obtain Mu You's memory through fusion, but he cannot feel the existence and effect of the power of heaven.
"Nonsense, of course it's reliable! It is precisely because we, the natural disaster beasts, are bound by the rules of Heaven that we must never stop participating in the cycle of seasons. Otherwise, do you think we are willing to 'work' for Heaven?"
Ju She gave him a blank look and didn't explain much. He just looked at Mu You and said, "You know best whether what I said is true or not. Besides, I also need to rely on your power of heaven to prevent that man from being enslaved... No matter what, we can only cooperate!”
"Is that so?" The watchman asked Mu You for confirmation. He still couldn't completely believe the snake.
Mu You nodded, indicating that Gu She was not lying.
The power of heaven is mutually exclusive, and for the same creature, there is a first-come, first-served concept of "taking advantage of the pit".
The God of Chaos wants to use the power of heaven to enslave the natural disaster beasts. The premise is that the natural disaster beasts cannot have the power of other people's heaven attached to them. Otherwise, they must first make other people's power of heaven disappear and then attach their own heaven to it. control.
There is only one way to make other heavenly ways disappear, and that is to kill the source of this heavenly way.
Therefore, as long as Gu Snake and Mu You sign a contract of heaven, it is equivalent to adding a layer of insurance. Even if the God of Chaos captures Gu Snake in the future, he will not be able to enslave him before Mu You dies.
"Have you thought about it? If you think about it, make a decision quickly. My patience is limited!" Ju She couldn't help but urge Mu You when he saw Mu You's delay in speaking.
In fact, it is the more anxious between the two parties. After all, it is a prisoner now. As long as it can regain its freedom, it will be better than it is now. However, it is not too worried that Mu You will refuse, because there are not many options left for the Fool to cooperate with it. This is the best choice among them.
Sure enough, Mu You pondered for a long time, weighed the pros and cons, and finally nodded: "Okay, let's cooperate... However, the specific content of the contract needs to be carefully negotiated."
"Of course." Ju She laughed, retracting the snake letter, with fox-like cunning flashing in his eyes. After cooperation is achieved, the next negotiation is when both parties fight for their own rights and interests, so naturally they have to talk carefully.
Next, Mu You and Ju She began to negotiate the content of the contract. Gu She was very shrewd and cunning, but Mu You was not bad either. The two sides were like an old fox meeting a young fox, and there was no end to the fight.
The watchman nearby was almost numb when he heard it. It felt like two aunts buying vegetables at the vegetable market, fussing over a vegetable leaf...
Mu You and Ju She argued for seven or eight hours until it was dark, and finally came to a result that both parties reluctantly accepted.
There are three specific contract contents.
The first is that after snakes are liberated, they are not allowed to actively attack human gathering places in the future. The gathering places here include the earth, the star spirit world, and the human cities in the high heaven world. During the season of fear, snakes must actively avoid these places when they swim through them.
Second, after the snake is liberated, it must do its best to help humans fight against the god-devouring beasts until the end of the war.
The first two are actually not controversial. If you don't attack human territory, you can easily deal with snakes. As for fighting the god-devouring beasts, that is also one of its purposes.
The key point is the third one.
Mu You requested that all the remaining consciousness in Gu She's body should also be sealed in the body of the watcher. The watcher could rely on his spirit to suppress Gu She and put him into a temporary sleep.
This restriction may seem overbearing, but it is necessary for humans. Otherwise, even if the snake does not actively attack humans in the future, there are still ways to kill people with a knife, using other races to make humans suffer or even exterminate.
And the snake is naturally firmly opposed to this. If it really has such a contract, what is the difference between it and being enslaved? It's just that the enslaver has changed from the god of chaos to the night watchman.
What it wants is a contract of equal status, not to become someone else's "pet".
The snake strongly opposes, and Mu You argues with reason. The two sides continue to entangle on this point, and neither side gives in. In the end, they can only take a step back: the snake agrees to this, but the premise is that if it does not do anything against the interests of humans in the future, it can do what it wants and go where it wants, and the night watchman cannot suppress its power and actions at will, otherwise it can counter.
"So you have decided?" The night watchman looked at Mu You and the snake.
"Yes." Mu You and the snake nodded at the same time.
"You won't regret it, will you?"
"No regrets."
"Emm..."
The night watchman looked at the three contracts that the two had finally written and touched his chin: seal Gushe in his body, the two of them should act together at any time, and he can use Gushe's body's power without Gushe's objection... Why does this relationship seem familiar?
"Isn't this really becoming a Jinchūriki..." The night watchman looked strange.
"Well, it's about the same..." Mu You nodded.
However, there is still an invisible restriction in this contract, that is, Gushe and the night watchman will become a symbiotic relationship after completing the contract.
Once the night watchman dies, Gushe's body will not die directly, but its consciousness and most of its power will dissipate with the night watchman until several years later, when Gushe's consciousness will re-condense somewhere in the world, but at that time, Gushe will already be a newborn Gushe.
For Gushe now, when its consciousness dissipates, it is no different from being dead, so it usually has to pay attention to protecting the safety of the night watchman.
In addition, even if the night watchman completely accepted the snake body, he would not be able to return to Mu You as a clone in the future, because the divine power would conflict with the power of the snake, which means that the two sides could no longer conveniently synchronize their memories, which was a small restriction.
In any case, the conditions were negotiated at this time, and Mu You did not waste time. He immediately teleported to the Red Rose Academy and returned to the Bitter Garden through the entrance in the forest.
Two hours later, Mu You and the night watchman appeared at the bottom of the dark cave, in front of the snake body.
There was also a part of consciousness in the snake body, which was integrated with the snake consciousness in the night watchman. At this moment, when the two consciousnesses approached, they immediately learned each other's memories.
"... In short, the conditions are like this. If you accept it, sign this contract." Mu You had already written a contract in advance with the power of order attached to the Heavenly Dao and threw it into the air.
"Boom..."
The entire bottom of the dark cave suddenly shook, a pair of snake pupils opened in the sky, and the snake body perched on the ground began to wriggle.
Knowing that he could leave this dark place soon, the snake body seemed very excited and hurriedly threw a ball of energy towards the contract.
Mu You took back the contract, read it carefully several times, and after confirming that there was no problem, he crushed the paper.
The order runes in it turned into light and shadows, rushing towards Mu You, the night watchman and the snake body respectively.
The three of them suddenly felt that their bodies were bound by a higher level of invisible rules.
The contract was formed, and the two sides were completely in the same camp.
Under the urging eyes of the snake body, Mu You summoned the Qilin arm and reached out to the holy spear... (End of this chapter)
