After capturing the mutated ice snake.
Luo Liang waved his hand and put the array disc of the [Purple Thorn Flame Talisman Array] into the space warehouse.
This set of talisman arrays was a consumable item that could last for 15 minutes. It had only used close to 15 minutes just now.
Luo Liang was very satisfied with the power of this set of talisman arrays. As expected of a spirit world from a high-energy world. In the main universe, it might even have a certain effect on weaker Level-4 National Guardians.
Then.
Luo Liang sat cross-legged in front of the mutated ice snake and tried to turn it into his own Sprite Commandeering.
An illusory jade-green vine extended out of his spirit heart. It flowed with water patterns and fused into the body of the Glazed Ice Snake.
"Sprite Trainer …"
Luo Liang's spirit heart touched a cold and angry consciousness. It struggled with all its might to apply the Sprite Commandeering Contract imprint.
This mutated ice snake actually saw through his identity as a Sprite Trainer.
In an instant.
A strange cold aura counterattacked his spirit heart and consciousness.
More than ten seconds later.
Luo Liang's face was slightly pale. His spirit consciousness seemed to have been frozen and corroded, and he felt a little uncomfortable.
The first Sprite Commandeering enslavement ended in failure.
The Glazed Ice Snake was a Level-3 City-state Level, an entire realm higher than Luo Liang's Sprite Trainer profession.
The success rate of Sprite Trainers crossing realms to enslave Sprites was low to begin with, not to mention this ancient mutated species, its bloodline grade was also very high.
If it wasn't for the fact that the mutated ice snake was seriously injured and weak. Under normal circumstances, enslaving it would probably cause a huge backlash to Luo Liang.
"Young Master, are you alright?"
Arnold pressed down on the mutated ice snake at the side, his eyes filled with worry.
"I'm fine."
Luo Liang recovered for a moment, and a sharp glint flashed in his eyes.
Bang! Bang!
He raised his fist and hammered the Glazed Ice Snake again.
The Glazed Ice Snake was beaten until it cried out miserably. It was riddled with wounds and was soon on the verge of death.
Luo Liang tried to apply the Sprite Commandeering Contract imprint again.
"Don't even think about it … Even if I die, I will never be enslaved by a Sprite Trainer!"
A tragic determination surged in the consciousness of the mutated ice snake.
Luo Liang paused and pondered.
This ice snake clearly had some understanding of Sprite Tamers and was very resistant to them.
Under such circumstances, it was not suitable to forcibly enslave him.
Even if he was lucky enough to succeed, the realm of the mutated ice snake was far higher than his Sprite Tamer profession. There was still a considerable risk of backlash in the future.
Facing such a situation.
Most of the Sprite Trainers would use negotiation, bribery, or other methods to threaten.
"Little ice snake, I'll give you a chance to make a reasonable request."
Luo Liang used the Spirit Heart Groove to communicate.
"If you still resist, or ask for too much. I'll give you a quick death! "
Luo Liang's mind transmitted a murderous intent as he threatened.
He would not really kill the Ice Snake. He would either find a way to deal with it through the organization or sell it to the World of Sprite Commandeering. He believed that there would be people who would be interested.
In short, they had to squeeze every last bit of value out of it.
Luo Liang had invested a lot in purchasing the talisman array disc.
The alien ice snake was silent for a moment.
Luo Liang's spirit heart could sense the hesitation, anger, and helplessness in its consciousness.
"I want a promise of freedom. If I become the slave and lackey of a Sprite Trainer for the rest of my life, I'd rather die …"
The consciousness of the mutated ice snake transmitted a message.
"If you can swear on your spirit heart that you will remove the Sprite Commandeering relationship within 50 years, set me free, and not deliberately hurt me, I can agree."
"Hehe, there's no need for 50 years. I'll give you a promise of 20 years."
Luo Liang smiled calmly, unusually generous.
Only by giving the mutated ice snake greater hope and increasing its loyalty would he be able to do his best.
"20 years?"
The mutated ice snake transmitted a hint of surprise.
20 years wasn't a long time for its lifespan.
"20 years later, you can leave or stay as you wish. During this period, I won't deliberately harm you."
Luo Liang made a spirit heart oath in front of it on the consciousness level.
"Alright, I promise you."
The mutated ice snake was satisfied and moved by Luo Liang's generosity.
Next.
The mutated ice snake was very cooperative and let Luo Liang apply the Sprite Commandeering Contract Imprint.
When applying the imprint.
Luo Liang discovered that in its soul, there were traces of a relatively old spiritual pet contract that was almost gone.
Luo Liang estimated that it was left behind by that fallen Heavenly Sun descendant.
This didn't have much of an effect. Luo Liang used the means of a Sprite Trainer to erase it and imprint his Sprite Commandeering Contract Imprint.
After transforming the Glazed Ice Snake into a Sprite Commandeering.
Luo Liang didn't immediately establish a "Sprite Commandeering Link" to give feedback.
This ice snake was too weak at the moment.
"Master, can you allow me to enter the stone hall to heal? I'll heal while answering Master's questions. "
The Glazed Ice Snake requested.
"Alright, you can go in."
Luo Liang allowed it.
The Glazed Ice Snake had become his Sprite Commandeering and could decide its life and death with a thought.
When the ice snake entered the stone hall, it could transmit the scene inside.
The Glazed Ice Snake rested for a moment and crawled towards the stone hall with difficulty. It pushed open a crack in the green stone door and crawled in.
Inside the stone hall, a front yard was reflected. Some vines were planted around it.
The most eye-catching thing was a huge Flood Dragon skeleton that was dozens of meters long, frozen in crystal ice.
However, there was a faint aura of death in the Flood Dragon skeleton.
The Glazed Ice Snake crawled onto the frozen skeleton of the huge Flood Dragon, and wisps of cold air entered its body.
During this process, the Glazed Ice Snake's strength quickly recovered.
Its injuries were also healing.
"What's your relationship with this Flood Dragon skeleton?"
Luo Liang asked.
"This Ice Flood Dragon was a descendant of a peak Level 7 Stellar-level True Dragon when it was alive. Before it died, its body was sealed in ice and it was reborn through ice shedding. It was nurtured for decades to allow its life bloodline to continue. That's how I was born."
The Glazed Ice Snake revealed its understanding and analysis with a hint of confusion.
"I'm the continuation of its life. I inherited some of the original Ice Flood Dragon's memories, inheritance, and subconsciousness, but I'm not the real one."
The ice snake added.
Luo Liang pondered. It's like a big tree before it withered and died, dropping a fruit core, using its own body as nourishment to breed a new sapling.
But the relationship between the ice snake and the Ice Flood Dragon may be more complicated. It's a powerful ability to prolong life.
Luo Liang didn't dwell on this point.
He was surprised by the ice snake's predecessor.
A peak Level 7 Stellar-level True Dragon descendant.
In terms of combat power, it may be able to compete with an ordinary Level 8 Stellar-level powerhouse.
What kind of power made it not hesitate to seal its body when it was alive and use ice shedding to continue its bloodline and life.
And the fall of a Heavenly Sun powerhouse left behind this stone tomb.
"The owner of this stone tomb is called Lu Xiuyang. He was a Level 8 Stellar-level Starry Sky powerhouse when he was alive. At the same time, he was also a descendant of the Heavenly Sun powerhouse."
The ice snake introduced.
Luo Liang searched the Internet. Sure enough, there was some simple information about the Starry Sky powerhouse Lu Xiuyang.
Lu Xiuyang's talent was outstanding. He became famous two thousand years ago. He was a descendant of the Heavenly Sun bloodline left behind in the Freedom Federation.
However, Lu Xiuyang didn't return to the three main clans or branches of the Heavenly Sun descendants.
This choice was normal.
Ten thousand years, who knew how many generations had passed.
Many descendants of the Heavenly Sun powerhouse didn't have any sense of belonging to the main clans or branches left behind by the Heavenly Sun Emperor.
"Then how did Lu Xiuyang fall?"
Luo Liang asked curiously.
Level 8 Stellar-level, such strength was at least equal to a Level 2 member of the organization.
"For unknown reasons, Lu Xiuyang was ambushed by the Level 9 Stellar-lord necromancer 'Kaldan' in the Desolate Star Zone."
Level 9 Stellar-lord necromancer.
Luo Liang was shocked. A necromancer of this level could control an army of hundreds of millions. He could probably destroy a small civilization, such as a Level 1 or 2 civilization like the Maple Leaf Country.
"This battle was very tragic! Lu Xiuyang did everything he could to heavily injure and force the Level 9 necromancer to retreat. But his body and soul were eroded by the power of death. His death was a foregone conclusion. "
"Before Lu Xiuyang died, he barely managed to escape to the Freedom Federation's territory. The reason he chose Cerulean was because he sensed that there were descendants of the Heavenly Sun bloodline here."
The ice snake described the history of this stone palace.
"I'm the continuation of the Ice Dragon's life bloodline. I have to abide by the oath it made in front of Master Lu Xiuyang. I have to guard this tomb and find the inheritor. Only then can I regain my freedom. Otherwise, my bloodline will collapse and I will die. "
After listening to the explanation, Luo Liang understood the history of this stone palace.
Lin Qingqing had come to the bamboo forest once. The ice snake must have judged that she was a descendant of the Heavenly Sun bloodline and saved her two days ago.
After all, this was its hope of regaining its freedom.
Half a day later.
The Glazed Ice Snake recovered most of its strength and its injuries were healed.
It entered the stone palace and transmitted some images to Luo Liang, explaining the layout inside.
There were indeed some dangers in the tomb.
Some were even fatal.
Luo Liang was glad that he took down the Glazed Ice Snake first and didn't open it with Lin Qingqing.
There were some personal belongings left behind by the Starry Sky powerhouse Lu Xiuyang in the tomb. Even if some of the treasures were damaged, their value was still extremely high.
Because he didn't come here in person, Luo Liang didn't find any suitable opportunities for him to quickly increase his strength.
However, even if he couldn't use them, he estimated that he could sell them for a large amount of organization points.
In the deepest part of the tomb, there was a dark hall, where Lu Xiuyang's ashes were said to be stored.
In the image, he could vaguely see an oil lamp flickering with blue flames.
Even the Glazed Ice Snake couldn't enter this area, otherwise it would be killed by the hidden restrictions.
After understanding the situation in the tomb.
Luo Liang's eyes flashed. He always felt that Lu Xiuyang wasn't so kind as to give the inheritance to the Heavenly Sun bloodline.
After all, this Starry Sky powerhouse had no sense of belonging to the Heavenly Sun Emperor's family.
"Are you sure Lu Xiuyang is dead?"
Luo Liang asked again.
"In my memory, Lu Xiuyang's body was completely corroded by the power of death. In order to prevent the corpse from mutating, he burned himself to ashes before he died."
The Glazed Ice Snake replied.
"In other words, there's no corpse in the stone hall, only ashes?"
Luo Liang's eyes flashed.
"That's right," the Glazed Ice Snake said with certainty.
Luo Liang heaved a sigh of relief. It seemed that Lu Xiuyang was indeed dead. At most, he would have left some backup plans.
"Did he make any other secret arrangements before he died?"
"I don't know about this. Maybe, only Lu Xiuyang himself knows. Maybe my memory is incomplete."
The Glazed Ice Snake said.
"Yes."
Luo Liang didn't ask any more questions.
The relevant details, including the layout of the tomb and the green flame oil lamp, he would ask Xiaochu to help him figure it out when the time came.
There were indeed some dangers in the tomb, and there were still some doubts.
Luo Liang wasn't in a hurry to find Lin Qingqing to open it.
In order to obtain a powerful Sprite Commandeering, the most important thing for Luo Liang now was to increase his strength.
That night.
Luo Liang let the Glazed Ice Snake out and established a Sprite Commandeering link.
As an ancient mutated species, the Glazed Ice Snake was reborn from the ice slough of the descendants of the True Dragon. It gave back some powerful and high-quality attribute characteristics.
Luo Liang carefully sensed and carefully selected. His heart palpitated.
At a certain moment.
He had a pleasant discovery.
"There's actually a trace of the attribute characteristics of the True Dragon on the mutated Ice Snake …"
