Chapter 159
"Human pets, right, I want to take human pets!"
After Shen Song finished speaking, the Ice Soul Gu was the first to agree.
After Foundation Establishment, the Ice Soul Gu had great confidence that it could defeat the Pine Needle Rat and the Long Li.
However, having just seen the Pine Needle Rat control numerous blood mosquitoes, the Ice Soul Gu suddenly realized what it was missing.
The Long Li had elixirs to use, which could significantly increase its combat power.
The Pine Needle Rat also hoarded a lot of combat supplies and had many trump cards.
Only it, having just been born, had nothing.
The Ice Soul Gu believed that this was the key reason why it lost to the Pine Needle Rat and the Long Li in the beginning.
Therefore, in order to improve its strength, the Ice Soul Gu, under Shen Song's reminder, developed the idea of taking "human pets."
Lin Jing indeed had the ability to take "human pets."
This ability was embodied in the Ice Soul Gu itself.
As the emperor among Gu, besides using Gu poison to directly control other creatures, the Ice Soul Gu could also "nurture" child Gu.
This child Gu was equivalent to a miniature version of the Ice Soul Gu, controlled by the mother Gu, and possessed a weakened version of the Ice Soul Gu's abilities.
The Ice Soul Gu had every way to parasitize the child Gu in other people's bodies, not only bestowing power upon others but also controlling the other party through the child Gu.
It could be said that because it had just awakened, the Ice Soul Gu had not yet perfectly exerted its abilities before being bullied in turns by the Pine Needle Rat and the Long Li.
"Even for the Ice Soul Gu's child Gu, ordinary cultivators cannot withstand that power; at least an Ice Spirit Body or Fire Spirit Body is required."
"However, even with an Ice Spirit Body or Fire Spirit Body, the abilities are too singular. While an Ice Spirit Body can exert the power of the Ice Soul child Gu to the maximum, extreme cold power is not necessarily a good thing. Ice upon ice—if the constitution cannot withstand it, it will instead become a burden and freeze oneself to death."
"For example, you right now: fusing the power of the Ice Soul Gu has caused your figure and appearance to change greatly. This is the manifestation of your body bearing a burden. Once used too many times, your body will inevitably be unable to withstand it."
"By comparison, possessing a Fire Spirit Body makes it easier to become a container for the Ice Soul Gu. Although it cannot perfectly exert the power of the Ice Soul Gu, at least you will be in a relatively stable state."
"Therefore, to perfectly master the Ice Soul Gu, it is best to possess both ice and fire attributes. On one hand, you can fully adapt to the power of the Ice Soul Gu, and on the other, you have the ability to suppress the power of the Ice Soul Gu."
"But possessing both ice and fire constitutions is undoubtedly very difficult. Just like you, you can only obtain fire power in the future by contracting a fire Long Li."
"And with the twin constitution, both parties share the same mind and share power, so there is a chance to become a cultivator who possesses both ice and fire power. Ordinary cultivators can only practice one cultivation method, but with the twin constitution, because their powers are connected, it is equivalent to being able to practice two cultivation methods."
"You let one of them practice a powerful ice-attribute cultivation method and the other practice a powerful fire-attribute cultivation method, and then bestow the Ice Soul child Gu upon them. They will be able to become your sharp battle blades! They are one of the few best containers that can perfectly exert the power of the Ice Soul child Gu."
"Of course, this is just one of the uses of the twin constitution, hehe." Shen Song suggested: "When the container has nurtured the child Gu to be powerful, the mother Gu will also receive feedback of the child Gu's power, just like a Beast-Controlling Sect cultivator, making its strength even more powerful!"
"It is not a bad means of nurturing the Ice Soul Gu!"
"Is that so." Lin Jing hesitated for a moment, then shook his head. Although this twin constitution might be a very good container for nurturing the Ice Soul child Gu, wasn't this forcing people to become demonic Gu cultivators?
That was not good.
Unless the other party was willing themselves.
Seeing that Lin Jing had been silent for a long time, the two twins did not dare to make a sound until Lin Jing spoke again: "Tianshui City, Jiang family."
"What level of cultivation family is it?"
"Returning to Senior, the Jiang family has an ancestor at the early Golden Core stage." The girl among the twins answered.
Lin Jing nodded: "No wonder you two were targeted by the Yinshi Sect. A single Golden Core ancestor is probably difficult to protect you."
"Now I give you two choices. One is that I send you back to your family."
"The second is to follow by my side, and I will give you power."
The two twins looked panicked. Both parties shared the same mind; they could know the other's thoughts without communicating or looking at each other.
"He, he said he would send us back?"
"Don't believe it. We have seen so many things we shouldn't have; how could we return safely? He will definitely silence us."
"He is testing whether we can be obedient. His purpose must be the same as the Yinshi Sect's; it is for our bodies."
"Senior, please don't kill us, we are willing to serve by Senior's side..." The two twins begged for mercy repeatedly.
"... Who wants to kill you." Lin Jing said speechlessly: "You should consider it carefully. Sending you back to your family is at most letting you forget some things."
"And following by my side is not necessarily a good thing, but as long as you are obedient, it won't take long before I make you two the strongest in your family."
"Senior... this junior dares to ask, following by Senior's side, what do we need to do." The twin boy swallowed his saliva and asked.
Lin Jing chuckled: "Nothing much, just let you act as containers to raise two Gu insects. Don't worry, with your constitution, as long as you cooperate, these Gu insects will not only not affect you, but will instead become your strongest partners."
The twins' vision went black. Gu insect containers?
"We will listen to everything Senior says... we won't go back." The girl among the twins said nervously. Compared to falling into the hands of the Yinshi Sect, they could accept falling into the hands of the Gu God Sect a little more.
Falling into the hands of the Yinshi Sect, they would either be possessed or refined into corpse puppets, but the Gu God Sect at most dealt with poisonous insects.
"Have you two thought it through?" Lin Jing asked.
"We have thought it through, we are willing to follow by Senior's side." After exchanging opinions, the two twins spoke with trepidation.
"Good, since that is the case, let's go to your family first. You go and report that you are safe first, and then we will leave the Void Region." Lin Jing said slowly.
"We can still go home to report that we are safe??" The two twins were stunned.
"I said, I am a good person."
The two twins nodded frantically.
"By the way, what cultivation method are you two practicing now, and do you have any attributes?" Lin Jing asked.
He looked at the two twins; both were at the seventh layer of Qi Condensation and looked to be fifteen or sixteen years old. Fortunately, their cultivation was not high.
"Returning to Senior, it is the family's 'Nine Revolutions Pure Origin Technique,' which is a non-attribute cultivation method characterized by fast cultivation speed."
"Hmm." Lin Jing nodded and said: "You don't need to practice for a while. Prepare to switch cultivation methods and start over. The Nine Revolutions Pure Origin Technique is neither good nor bad, but it is not suitable for you in the future."
"I will find new cultivation methods for you to replace the Nine Revolutions Pure Origin Technique."
Although he said so, Lin Jing fell into deep thought. Where would he find good ice-attribute or fire-attribute cultivation methods? It seemed he still had to go looking for them.
