Chapter 200 More Than One Face

But the cessation of the corpse's agitation is not the end, but the beginning.

The sounds of gnawing came from all directions. As their bellies were gnawed open, the young mermaids darted out, returned to the lake, gathered together, and headed towards the bottom of the lake.

The cubs are small, small enough to be held in one hand, much smaller than human babies. Given that the bellies of the corpses are stretched so thin, there are at least ten or so, and sometimes as many as twenty, inside a single corpse.

The hatchlings are being bred as quickly as possible, regardless of gender, as any human being will do. Therefore, the corpses here all contain them, and there are at least a thousand corpses here.

The cubs that had escaped from nearly a thousand corpses gathered together, densely packed, and headed towards the bottom of the lake, like a huge black object sinking to the bottom.

Clearly, the key to the Jiao Yuan's capture of humans lies at the bottom of the lake.

Without hesitation, Ling Yi immediately prepared to go down. However, the moment his foot touched the water, a complex array lit up, and Ling Yi stepped on the array, making it impossible for him to enter the water.

Ling Yi looked at the formation beneath his feet, then glanced at the corpses. No wonder the corpses hadn't sunk; they were lying on the formation.

With this formation in place, people cannot enter the water, but the young merfolk will not be hindered.

However, even if the merman cubs are not blocked, she cannot rely on them to get in. There are only two options: break the formation or break it by force.

The former relies on understanding the formation, while the latter relies on force.

Ling Yi chose the latter, since finding the array's core was troublesome.

"Ling Yi." Just as Ling Yi was about to forcefully break the formation, Ye Qing Shuang came down.

Ling Yi turned her head to look: "What's wrong?"

Ye Qingshuang looked at Ling Yi: "I'll tear an opening, and you can go in while I'm at it."

Ling Yi raised an eyebrow: "You want to?"

Ye Qingshuang said, "I'll do it. You bleed every time you take out the knife. It's not appropriate to bleed before you even know what that thing below is."

"Okay." Ling Yi didn't argue with Ye Qingshuang: "You do it."

Ye Qingshuang said no more, gathered her strength, and attacked the formation.

Lin Xinze, who was peering down from the edge of the little golden tiger's back, asked with some concern, "Can Sister Qing Shuang manage?"

Lin Chengtian didn't know, and he was very curious.

In Lingyang Kingdom, Ye Qingshuang is a level 5 Spirit Master.

When she arrived in Qizhou, her cultivation level jumped directly from Spirit Master to Spirit Saint, and this Spirit Saint was not real. No one knew how high Ye Qingshuang's cultivation level really was.

"Qing Shuang's spiritual energy fluctuations are so strong." Bai Jiu was also watching. His eyes were special, and he could often see more than he could see. For example, right now, Lin Chengtian and Lin Xinze could only see Ye Qing Shuang as a person, but Bai Jiu could see the spiritual energy that was condensing and erupting within Ye Qing Shuang's body.

Very strong!

Ji Yanzhi was placed in the center of the little golden tiger's back by Ling Yi, and his legs could not move, so he could not see the scene below. However, even if he could not see it, he knew that Ye Qingshuang could tear open the formation.

After all, she was being groomed to be the next king of the Spirit Race.

If there were no restrictions, tearing apart such a formation would be easy for her, but under the restrictions, forcibly using force to tear it apart would also bring backlash.

"puff"

Ye Qingshuang coughed up a mouthful of blood.

Ling Yi looked at her: "Are you alright?"

Ye Qingshuang nodded: "No problem."

Ling Yi stopped asking questions. As a continuous stream of power fell onto the formation, a crack gradually appeared where the power landed.

Ye Qingshuang looked at Ling Yi: "Now!" After saying that, she suddenly increased her strength, tearing the opening even wider.

Ling Yi entered the water through the opening.

"Ling Yi, it's up to you now." Ye Qingshuang said the moment Ling Yi entered the water, then her strength dissipated, her body went limp, and she fell backward.

Upon seeing this, Lin Chengtian and Bai Jiu immediately set off to rescue the person, but Ye Qingshuang was even faster than them. In the instant she fell backward, Ye Qingshuang shouted, "Ji Yanzhi, grab me!"

In order to break the formation, she loosened a little of the seal. Damn it, this stinks! What's the difference between this and corpse water?

She didn't want to fall into such water and get covered in a foul odor!

When Ji Yanzhi heard Ye Qingshuang's plea for help, he thought of how Ye Qingshuang had targeted him before and didn't want to rescue her. But then he thought that she was doing this for Ling Yi. Ji Yanzhi raised his hand, his fingers moved slightly, and a force flew out, accurately landing on Ye Qingshuang and taking her away from the lake.

Lin Chengtian and Bai Jiu landed beside Ye Qingshuang, preparing to take the people back to the little golden tiger's back, when the little golden tiger flapped its wings and flew into the air.

Lin Chengtian and Baijiu were both confused.

The little golden tiger looked down at them, its golden eyes showing obvious disdain. However, the two didn't understand, so the little golden tiger had to tell Lin Xinze why it didn't want them to come up.

Lin Xinze shouted down, "Big brother, Baijiu brother, Little Jinhu said you guys smell bad. You have to come up here and get rid of the stench."

Upon hearing this, Lin Chengtian looked at Ye Qingshuang in his arms. Ye Qingshuang hadn't fallen, but she had stepped on the formation earlier, and since the surface of the formation was covered with water, it was as if she had stepped on corpse water and was tainted by the stench.

Lin Chengtian and Baijiu couldn't smell the stench. They were in a hurry to save Ye Qingshuang. One of them carried Ye Qingshuang and the other stepped on the spot where Ye Qingshuang had stepped, both of which were tainted by the stench.

The three of them were disliked by Little Golden Tiger.

After Lin Xinze translated, he asked Xiao Jinhu if he could make an exception and let his older brother and the others stay down there, as it was too dangerous.

Little Golden Tiger, unaware of the danger, refused to make an exception.

Lin Xinze had no choice but to ask his older brother for help.

Lin Xinze also tried to think of a solution, but putting aside the fact that he couldn't smell it and didn't know how smelly it was, even if he could smell it, he was a man and didn't have any perfume or similar products on him, so how could he solve the problem?

Just as the little golden tiger and the three were locked in a stalemate, Ling Yi had already caught up with the juvenile calf.

Upon entering the water, Ling Yi discovered that the spiritual energy within was extremely concentrated, so concentrated that it could mask the foul odors.

Such rich spiritual energy is comparable to that of the Spirit-Gathering Pearl.

If Ling Yi hadn't retrieved the Pearl Spirit, he would have suspected that there was a Pearl Spirit here. But the Pearl Spirit has already been found, and the remaining two fragments alone could not possibly possess the same spiritual energy as the Pearl Spirit.

The strangeness of this place is likely unrelated to the fragments of the Spirit Pearl.

But regardless of whether it's related or not, since we're here, we naturally need to find out.

Ling Yi followed the baby merfolk, sinking deeper and deeper until they reached the bottom of the lake.

In the center of the lake, there was a pure white stone. The stone was so white that it shone and illuminated the bottom of the lake. By the light, Ling Yi saw what was lying on the stone.

A female mermaid with a human upper body and a fish tail lower body.

The woman lay naked on the rock with a smile on her face, looking as if she were asleep and having a sweet dream.

Ling Yi's gaze fell on the woman's face. It was a very beautiful face, but... it had more than one face.

In the short time Ling Yi was watching her, her face changed more than ten times, and each time it was a different face.
