Chapter 344 Is Situ Yuner in danger? (Edited)
The entire South China Sea was shrouded in darkness, and even the world of cultivation would probably be shocked by the situation here.
The Mermaid Queen was also extremely shocked by this scene:
“Is this… is this really just the thunder tribulation that comes with breaking through to the Ascension Realm?
How could it be more vast than the thunder tribulation required to ascend to immortality?
Yuner, is your friend really just an ordinary human being? "
She had heard that Chu You had beaten the eldest princess of the Rakshasa tribe, Gongsun Mengli, with his bare hands, leaving her unable to fight back.
Previously, she thought that it was an exaggeration of "rumors", but when she saw the thunder tribulation today, the Mermaid Queen suddenly believed it.
Situ Yuner knew that Chu You still had the blood of the demon race, but she always felt that if more people knew about it, it might bring unknown dangers to Chu You, so she was vague about it:
"When I first met her, she was just an ordinary human being who had been cultivating in the world of cultivation. She must have a strong character."
After a pause, Situ Yuner saw that Queen Jiao was suspicious and added:
"Uncle Ning said that Chu You is practicing physical cultivation, so the thunder tribulation will be more powerful than the thunder tribulation of ordinary human spiritual roots."
But Situ Yuner didn't expect that it would become so big!
The Mermaid Queen was shocked again, and her voice changed tone:
“Physical cultivation?!
Are there still cultivators who practice physical cultivation in the world of cultivation today?"
"Yes! Many cultivators in Wuji Mountain are practicing physical cultivation under the guidance of Uncle Ning.
Moreover, some independent cultivators with average spiritual roots, as well as the half-demons unified by us, many of them are practicing physical cultivation full-time or part-time, and their combat effectiveness is no weaker than that of sword cultivators.
Moreover, many of them use weapons such as knives, swords, and crossbows, and their physiques are even stronger than ordinary sword cultivators!"
Situ Yuner was slightly puzzled:
"Why is the Queen Mother so surprised?"
When the Mermaid heard that there were so many people practicing physical cultivation in the world of cultivation, she was shocked for a long time before she came to her senses and said slowly:
“Thousands of years ago, there were many human cultivators who practiced physical cultivation and those who relied on spiritual roots.
However, physical cultivation is too tiring and difficult, and the power of thunder tribulation is much greater than that of ordinary spiritual root cultivation. When ascending to become an immortal, there is a high probability that the soul will be struck to pieces.
My friend, why do you want to cultivate your body?
Is it true that the spiritual roots cannot be cultivated? "
Hearing the words "soul flying and scattering", the blood color on Situ Yuner's face instantly faded away, and her voice began to tremble:
"Will... my soul fly away?!
Is there a way to crack it?"
"How can there be any solution to this problem? It has come to this point. Could she really give up on the path to becoming an immortal?"
The Mermaid Queen said it subconsciously, but when she saw her son's face looked unusually bad, the words that the Mermaid King had talked to her until late at night when he had just brought Situ Yuner back flashed through her mind.
He said that his son had a special feeling for Wuji Mountain, especially for the female cultivator named Chu You.
He even suspected that his son was very likely to have sacrificed his chastity to Chu You.
At that time, the Mermaid Queen was very angry. She felt that if this human woman did not admit it, she would be irresponsible. She was ready to ask her for an explanation, but was stopped by the Mermaid King, who told her a lot about Chu You's character and responsibility.
In the following days, the Mermaid Queen also observed Chu You on purpose and felt that she was indeed not the type of person who could not take responsibility, so she stopped paying attention to her.
But now, her son's nervousness towards her made things even more confusing.
She tried to ask:
"Yun'er, are you on good terms with this Miss Chu?"
Situ Yuner was stunned for a moment, then realized that her reaction was a bit extreme, and tried to calm herself down:
“Mom, the reason I was able to stay safely in the cultivation world for such a long time and learn so many skills is all because of Chu You and the others’ kindness and righteousness.
It is not an exaggeration to say that they have given me a new life.
If they were in danger, I would naturally try to find a way to help them through it."
Seeing that her youngest son looked normal, the Mermaid Queen thought that she had been too sensitive and nervous recently, and was really a little jumpy. So she stopped worrying about it and focused on watching Chu You overcome the tribulation.
Thunderbolts, stronger than the last, struck from the sky, lighting up the entire sea area, sometimes bright and sometimes dark, making people panic.
I originally thought that since this tribulation was so severe, it should take a slightly shorter time than the thunder tribulation that usually occurs when breaking through the Ascension Realm.
Unexpectedly, after seven days and seven nights, the thunder tribulation was still continuing, with no sign of weakening at all.
Ji Chen and others also rushed to the scene. Seeing that their junior sister's thunder tribulation had not yet ended, they inexplicably felt a sense of absurdity and déjà vu.
They still didn't know the dangers of the physical cultivators' final ascension to immortality. Except for Shentu Yin who went to heal Ning Luo's injuries, everyone else was flying in the air and actually chatting:
Ji Chen put his hands in his pockets, looking high-spirited and smiling:
"Do you think Junior Sister will break the record this time?"
Nangong Yan waved the peach blossom folding fan in his hand, looking dashing and romantic:
"Anyway, it's already been seven days, which is the longest duration of our thunder tribulation. It's exceeded the time limit!
I just hope she doesn't faint this time. I heard from Uncle Ning that she fainted for several days last time and was even auctioned off. Luckily, Senior Brother and Little Situ were there, otherwise the consequences would be disastrous!"
Ji Chen was also frightened for a while, but he still had his sanity:
“However, Junior Sister has Yun Banjian’s divine power, and the Rakshasa have demon blood, so I’m afraid they can’t get close to Junior Sister.
However, we still have to keep a close eye on her and not let our Junior Sister get lost again."
"Don't worry, it won't be lost this time, so don't be too nervous."
Yelang appeared from nowhere, still eating the sea spirit fruit he had taken from the mermaid tribe, and he was eating it with gusto:
"Look at her in the center of the thunderstorm. She's so comfortable that you'd think she was sleeping!"
It was Chu You's expression with his eyes tightly closed and his head nodding that made him look like he was sleeping.
As it turned out, after Chu You was struck by the thunder, she was actually numb and felt no pain. The thunder tribulation had not ended and lasted for too long, so she really fell asleep.
During this period, a major event happened to the mermaid tribe.
After the mermaid royal family came of age, they should have immediately entered the secret realm to receive inheritance. Before, they were not allowed to go because Situ Yuner was not there.
Now that he is back and has rested for such a long time, many royal elders have appealed and demanded that he be sent to the secret realm immediately. The thousands of years of rules of the mermaid tribe must not be broken.
It was already the limit for the Mermaid King and the Mermaid Queen to suppress their emotions for such a few days. Even if Situ Yuner was reluctant to explain who she had sacrificed herself for, he had no choice but to go to the secret realm without hesitation.
When Chu You successfully returned from the calamity, he found that no one looked happy, and a sense of unease surged in his heart:
"What's going on here?
I have successfully transcended the tribulation, and you are still not happy?"
Ning Suyan explained the whole story. Chu You seemed to understand, but he also realized the seriousness of the matter:
"How long has Little Situ been in there?
How long does it usually take for them to receive the inheritance?"
"It is said that we have to be out for at least seven days, otherwise it will be very dangerous."
Ning Suyan looked at the time around her:
"It's been six days since we entered. If we haven't emerged from the secret realm by midnight tonight, we'll most likely be in danger. We'll see how the Mermaid King and Mermaid Queen handle it."
In fact, the elders and the Mermaid King and Queen can enter the secret realm before the inheritance is opened.
But they did not have equipment like jade slips and photo stones, and there were no spiritual messages on the seabed. Even if they had jade slips, they could not broadcast the situation inside live, so they could only worry.
Time passed by minute by minute, and it was really painful.
After Ning Luo's wound was treated by Shentu Yin, it was obviously much better, but his brows were still furrowed, as if he had encountered an extremely difficult problem.
Until midnight, there was no news of Situ Yuner coming out of the secret realm, so everyone prepared to find the Mermaid King and the Mermaid Queen to find out the situation, but the latter two came to the door first, with anxious faces.
The Queen was so anxious that she almost cried:
"Please, fellow monks, save our Yuner!"
As she spoke, the Mermaid Queen was about to kneel down before them, but Ning Suyan helped her up:
"Your Highness the Mermaid Queen, Little Situ is our friend and our family.
If we can help him, we will definitely do it without hesitation.
You just need to tell us, how can we help him?"
The Shark King helped the already somewhat collapsed Shark Queen up and said slowly:
"It's been over seven days. Yuner must have angered the Mermaid Fairy or even the remnant soul of the Mermaid God, which is why she can't get out. We can't go in and help her right now.
He usually gets along very well with you guys. Have you noticed any signs that he is in love with that human female cultivator?
For some unknown reason, no matter how we promised not to harm the human female cultivator, he was unwilling to reveal her identity.
Now the only way to get out with him is to find out who that female cultivator is and let her enter the secret realm.
Only she can enter at this time!"
This is tricky!
Because, they don’t know either!
Among these people, Jiang Xinbai was the most thoughtful, and all their eyes fell on him.
He remained calm and composed, and after only a moment's hesitation, he began to unravel the mystery:
"Your Majesty, do the mermaids have any signs that indicate they haven't married or consummated a marriage?
Just like in the mortal world, before a woman gets married, she will have a mark on her arm like the toad's blood."
"Have!"
The Mermaid King quickly said, "After the Mermaids differentiated, both males and females, before they married and consummated their marriage, had patterns on their wrists that looked like ocean tears, in different colors.
Males usually appear on the left wrist, while females appear on the right wrist.
After he separated, he followed you to the human world, and we don't know the color of his mark. "
“We’ve seen it. It’s ocean blue!”
Ji Chen and others said almost in unison.
Ji Chen was the first to become confused:
"I remember when little Situ boarded the ship with us and went out to sea, the mark on his left wrist was still there!
Could it be that I remembered it wrongly?"
"You're not mistaken, I saw it too." Jiang Xinbai echoed.
Nangong Yan's imagination was more open: "Is it hard to believe that he was afraid that we would find something unusual, so he painted it himself?"
"impossible!"
Shentu Yin rejected it outright. Under everyone's doubtful gaze, he said with great certainty:
"I could sense that the mark on his hand at that time was innate."
Shentu Yin's "Glass Heart" can perceive the essence of all things.
Since he said so, naturally no one would doubt it.
"So, Little Situ's self-sacrifice could only have happened after he went out to sea, which means it happened recently."
Jiang Xinbai came to a conclusion, and his eyes vaguely swept over the other three female cultivators besides Ning Suyan and Chu You, and asked politely:
"Three junior sisters and little Situ, have you..."
"How is that possible! I always treated him as the boy next door!"
Before he could finish his words, Ye Jinyao was the first to jump in anxiety: "Although he and I also like to joke around, but we both like to joke around, it's impossible!"
Zisha also shook her head repeatedly: "I am the same as Zisha, and have never crossed the line with Xiao Situ. You were all watching on the boat!"
Ziyun was relatively calm:
"The three of us are still virgins, how could we have any intimate behavior with little Situ?"
"Three female monks, you don't know that when we, the mermaids, sacrifice our souls and chastity, we don't need to go through the same rituals as humans do. It's just a touch of the soul.
Moreover, the sacrificed person will only feel as if his spirit is being embraced and his forehead is being kissed.
But for the sacrificer, the feelings will be more... intense."
The Mermaid Queen described it very tactfully, causing the three female cultivators to blush slightly. They looked at each other, suddenly feeling a little unsure as to whether Situ Yuner had secretly done anything to them.
No one noticed that when Ning Luo heard words like "hug" and "kiss", his expression was stunned for a moment, and then his brows frowned even tighter.
Everyone only heard Ye Jinyao's voice of denial again:
"I still think it's impossible. Although we occasionally play around and spar, we always stay within the bounds of etiquette. There's absolutely no kissing or hugging!"
The other two also nodded repeatedly, indicating that there was absolutely no guilt between them and Situ Yuner.
When he was in a dilemma, Chu You suddenly said:
"Your Majesty, the Mermaid Emperor and the Mermaid Empress, do you have any treasures that can prove or verify who has an intimate relationship with young Situ?
Just verify it and you will get the result, right?
It’s really hard to say what the sacrifice of the soul is.
What if Little Situ is secretly in love with someone but doesn't dare to confess, and secretly offers sacrifice while the other person is in meditation or sleeping?"
Having said that, the Mermaid King and the Mermaid Queen instantly understood.
No wonder my son refused to say anything. It is very likely that he was secretly in love with her and was afraid that the other party would find out, so he kept his mouth shut!
With a helpless sigh, the Queen quickly took out a seven-colored rough stone from her arms:
“This is Yoona’s natal stone. Except for the two years he spent in the human world, he has been with it since he was born.
If Yoona really sacrifices herself to the three female cultivators, you only need to drop a drop of blood on it, and Yoona's natal stone will emit a seven-colored glow.
After saying that, the Mermaid Queen placed Situ Yuner's natal stone on the table made of polished pearls and looked at Ye Jinyao, Ziyun and Zisha with a pleading look.
The three girls didn't think anything of it at first, but now they became inexplicably nervous!
