I was reincarnated as a single school beauty

Broken bridge to death.

When such a description came out of the Demon Lord's mouth, the expressions of several people present changed and they looked a little solemn.

Chong Xiao asked: "Back then...did you also lose a lot of people?"

Demon Lord said: "I can't remember clearly. It seems that nearly a hundred people entered, right? But in the end, only a few people came out."

"So exaggerated?!"

The expressions of several people changed again. Although the Demon Lord had just said that most people would be left in it, this proportion is too high. This is not the majority, this is almost all!

The Demon Lord chuckled: "If there is no risk in the test of the Life Seal and it can be obtained easily, why bother to arrange for the emergence of the Gate of the End?"

Qiongwei asked: "Then you came to Sister Chongxiao to prevent her from entering the Gate of Ending?"

The Demon Lord looked at Chong Xiao and asked, "If I stop you, will you listen?"

Chongxiao replied without thinking: "No."

If she was really someone who was greedy for life and afraid of death, she wouldn't have taken the initiative to face the mysterious god behind Tian Zhangjiao.

The Demon Lord smiled and said without surprise: "I knew you would answer like this, so I'm not here to persuade you to give up, but to give you some advice."

"You may think that after entering the End, your enemies will be those people from the Heavenly Sect, or you may think that they are the greatest threat to you, but in fact this is not the case. In the realm of End, the most dangerous place is there Living creatures.”

The Demon Lord raised a finger: "There are two types of creatures in the realm of Ending. The first type is the native creatures born and raised in Ending. Those are all natural monsters, including flowers, grass, trees, and even the local customs, clouds, and water. They may be born with spiritual wisdom. These aboriginal people may not have high spiritual intelligence, but they are basically everywhere, and they are almost immortal. Even if you destroy them, they can come back to life after a while. These aboriginal people are extremely They like to absorb the spiritual energy of living beings. For them, outsiders are their food, especially newcomers, who are the freshest."

"Most of them are not very offensive, but they have the ability to create illusions. They use illusions to make people emotionally confused, and then take the opportunity to continuously absorb living auras. This is their usual method."

"So if you want to enter the end, you must always be vigilant."

The Demon Lord raised a second finger and continued: "This second type is the outsiders who are left in the End. They are called the End Foreigners. There are countless humans and monsters. These are from The strong men from various realms failed in the fight for the Life Seal, and most of them were left in the end."

"The Zhongwai people who stay in Zhongyan will not die immediately. Even relying on the rich spiritual energy there, even if they are seriously injured, their recovery speed will be many times faster than outside. But the indigenous people in Zhongyan will Absorb their living spiritual energy. Therefore, in order to live longer, those aliens will try their best to increase the living spiritual energy in their bodies. However, no matter how hard these people try, the speed of absorption will never be as fast as the speed of loss."

"When the spiritual energy in the body is completely lost, they will die completely."

Chongxiao wondered: "Since the inner spiritual energy of Zhongyan is so strong, why do the aboriginal people absorb the spiritual energy of the outsiders of Zhongyan?"

The Demon Lord looked thoughtful and said: "According to our original guess, the flow of living spiritual energy in the realm of Ending should have become a cycle. The tree of life releases natural living spiritual energy, and the foreigners in Ending absorb these living spiritual energy to continue their lives, while the aboriginals Then it absorbs the living spiritual energy in their bodies to feed the tree of life. In this repeated cycle, eventually the outsiders will gradually die away, and the tree of life will bloom and bear fruit. Perhaps for the tree of life, what it wants is not ordinary living spiritual energy, but The living spirit energy that has been warmed and nourished by the body of a real living being.”

"For it, our body is like a tool, making a better taste of the living energy it provides, and then providing it to it."

When several people heard this, they were all speechless.

No one expected that it would be like this.

So, for the tree of life, it creates living beings only for its own growth?

The Demon Lord looked at the complicated expressions on their faces and asked, "Do you feel a little confused about your own existence at this moment?"

Tree of life, soul, living being, living seal, living aura...

Everything, including their existence, is just a cycle created by the Tree of Life. The purpose of the cycle is to enable the Tree of Life to bloom more flowers, bear more fruits, and create more creatures... …

Chong Xiao gave a rare wry smile and said: "This amount of information is a bit too much. But why are those outsiders left behind in the end so dangerous to us?"

The Demon Lord said: "Because for those people from the outside world who are left in the realm of the end, no matter how they persist there, they will eventually perish. Therefore, if they want to survive, they can only leave the end. As for leaving the end, as far as I know, there are two ways."

"One is to find the origin of the Tree of Life. It is rumored that there is a passage leaving the End under the Tree of Life, but this is just a legend after all and has never been confirmed. Therefore, for everyone, the second way is the most reliable."

"That is to take away the qualifications of the newcomer, go through the test on his behalf, and finally use his place to leave the End. In fact, there are many people who failed to leave the End because of the calculations of those people. There, even lives were lost on the spot.”

Everyone frowned, and Zhuyi asked in surprise: "How can it still be like this? Doesn't the Tree of Life care?"

The Demon Lord asked back: "Do you think a person who has been trapped for a long time and is half alive is more attractive? Or is a person who is full of vitality more attractive?"

Zhuyi did not answer, because the answer was undoubtedly obvious.

Chong Xiao asked: "How can I be deprived of my qualifications?"

Demon Lord said: "Everyone who enters the End will receive a leaf from the Tree of Life. This leaf will help the person who enters resist the erosion of the aboriginal people to a certain extent. It is also a certificate for participating in the test of the Seal of Life."

"Be it the Seal of Life or the Realm of Ending, they only look at the leaves and don't care about the person holding the leaves. Therefore, as long as you snatch someone else's leaves, you can replace them."

When everyone was stunned, the Demon Lord added: "However, the leaves of the tree of life will not appear in the form of entities, but will appear in the form of marks. The marks appear randomly, and may be any part of the body. Therefore, after entering, you must check yourself and hide the mark so that no one can find it."

"The snatching of the mark requires the pulling of the soul. Therefore, in the realm of the end, do not touch the things given by others, especially the food. The aliens living there are born with spiritual energy. Due to the losses, the general strength will be reduced, so in order to seize the leaves, they basically use some insidious and cunning methods. Some even do not hesitate to collude with the indigenous people to plot against the newcomers."

When she said this, the Demon Lord gritted her teeth. Obviously she should have understood this deeply at the beginning.

Qiongwei interrupted at this time and asked: "But what if the mark appears on the face?"

The Demon Lord looked at her: "Then you can only consider yourself unlucky."

"..."

Chongxiao asked: "How long can the leaves last?"

"After the soul seal master selection is completed."

Chongxiao thought for a moment and said: "So, as long as the soul seal has not been able to choose a master, the leaves will always be effective?"

Demon Lord said: "Theoretically, that's the case, but even if you don't want to obtain the Life Seal, others won't be able to keep you delayed."

"The creature seal created by Master Tian is still incomplete." Chong Xiao added, and then told the Demon Lord the details of this period.

After hearing this, the Demon Lord looked slightly surprised, "How can he still be like this..."

She knew a lot about the life seal and the end, but she had never seen an incomplete life seal.

The Demon Lord asked: "So, now only Yun Xi has entered the end, and there is still a fragment on his body?"

Chong Xiao nodded: "Yes, if the people from Tianzhangjiao get the fragment in her hand, then the seal of life will be complete."

"Yun Xi has been collecting fragments of the life seal over the years, under your instructions?"

"No, I only found out later that she collected many fragments of the living seal."

Chongxiao was also very surprised about this.

She had never revealed the information about the Seal of Life. How did Yun Xi know the information about the fragments and the location of the fragments?

"It's not you?" The Demon Lord lowered his eyebrows and looked thoughtful, "So, there may be someone else behind Yun Xi who has some guidance. It's interesting. I think you don't have to worry about her."

When he was in the Demon Lord's secret realm, the Demon Lord saw Yun Xi collecting the fragments of the life seal, and he had doubts about her. After questioning, Yun Xi himself admitted that he did not know what he had collected.

In this way, she didn't even know the existence of the living soul seal fragments and went to collect them. There was obviously other hidden reasons behind this.

No matter what the secret is, in today's world of mixed spirits, apart from Chong Xiao and Xiao Qing, the only ones who can know the existence of the life seal and even detect the fragments of the life seal are Zun Shen.

Although I don’t know who is behind Yun Xi, at least before choosing the master of the living seal, the other party cannot let Yun Xi have an accident like this.

The Demon Lord asked: "How many fragments do you still have in your hands now?"

"Six."

"How do you plan to distribute it?"

Chong Xiao said: "Originally we planned to arrange for the six slaying spirits to enter successfully. The stronger the strength, the better."

"There is indeed nothing wrong with this idea, but I suggest you try to choose someone younger." Demon Lord said, "Because the longer people live, the stronger their spiritual energy will be, and they have not been able to achieve anything after living for so long. Breakthroughs and talents must still be a bit lacking. Such people are the most suitable nutrients for the tree of life. Once they enter, it will be very difficult to get out. So I do not recommend that you arrange for people over five thousand years old. Or maybe a demon got in."

Qiongwei glared: "Then I can't go in?"

The Demon Lord glanced at Qiu Wei and said, "If you go in, you can basically retire there and die."

"...Sister Chongxiao, should I accompany you to fight?"

Qiongwei grabbed Chongxiao's sleeves and looked up at her eagerly.

Chong Xiao smiled and rubbed her head, and said with a sad look: "But in this case, the number of Ling Zhuan Perfect will be somewhat insufficient."

In today's world of mixed spirits, among those under five thousand years old who have perfected their souls, except for a soul-turned-youxiyun, the only one left is Mu Shenqing.

Originally, Cheng Shou also met this condition, but it was a pity...

The Demon Lord said: "Given the environment in the End World, it is not difficult for even a master of killing spirits to protect himself there. Moreover, as a place of enlightenment for all things, the spiritual energy there is far better than any spiritual world. I entered the End World back then. When I entered the realm, my realm was only the Great Soul Killing, but after I came out, it was already perfect. After a thousand years, I successfully ascended to the Shinto."

Hearing this, Chong Xiao nodded: "In that case, I'll think about it again."

She had always thought that in the end, their biggest enemy was Master Tian, ​​and there were three perfect Master Tian, ​​and together with Hao Xuanmo, there were four.

The four Spirit Killing Perfection alone are already very powerful, not to mention that the strength of Wu Zhu and others cannot be underestimated, so she plans to arrange the strongest combat force to go in as much as possible, but now after hearing what the Demon Lord said, In the entire End, the most threatening thing was the creatures living inside, so she should consider it comprehensively.

Demon Lord continued to ask: "Where is Xiaoqing now?"

Chong Xiao thought for a while, but still didn't hide anything: "In the Taiwei Secret Realm of Tianling Continent."

Qiongwei and others' eyes flashed. They had heard a lot about the soul. They had been curious about the soul's current identity before, but they didn't expect that it was actually hidden in the Taiwei secret realm.

The Demon Lord was also a little surprised. Xiaoqing was a soul. Why did he enter Taiwei?

She looked at Chong Xiao's face and found that there was something strange in Chong Xiao's eyes, and then she asked suspiciously: "You couldn't have given her a physical body, right?"

"..."

Chong Xiao lowered his head and replied cautiously: "Well..."

The Demon Lord raised his forehead and said in a helpless tone: "What should I say to you? You actually dare to create a body for a soul. If you do this, it is very likely that you will ruin her path to return to the Seal of Life in the future."

Once a soul has a physical body, it is equivalent to existing in another form. Without the original purity, can the soul in that form still be called a soul?

In the future, if Xiaoqing is asked to banish the spirit girl's soul from the seal of life again, will she be able to do it?

Chongxiao was silent for a while and said: "If it weren't for her, maybe I would have died long ago. You asked me to protect Xiaoqing, but for so many years, I always feel that she is protecting me. What if I have been with you for thousands of years? Is it possible to give up like this? It is my original wish not to return to the Seal of Life."

The Demon Lord looked at her: "So you deliberately prevented Master Tian from getting her?"

"Yeah. I hope she can... no longer live restrictedly as a [soul]."

At first, the Demon Lord was still surprised that Master Tian had the ability to repair the seal of life. Even if Chong Xiao hated Master Tian, ​​there was no reason to stop him.

Because only the realm with the seal of living beings is a complete realm. The living beings here can practice faster. It is easier to enter the divine way and connect with the outer stars. Chongxiao has been trapped in the Bodhi Sea for tens of millions of years, so he should be thinking about it. Just leave here.

Only now did she finally understand what Chong Xiao was thinking.

Love grows over time, not just between people. Chongxiao and Xiaoqing have been together for thousands of years, and this emotion has also been inseparable for a long time.

Perhaps in the eyes of Chongxiao, Xiaoqing was just a soul that needed protection, but now, Xiaoqing has become her closest relative. She hopes that she can truly live, not as a tool that exists as a seal of life, but as a tool that exists as a seal of life. As a human being, we experience the warmth and coldness of the world, and feel love, hate and separation.
