Douluo Continent: All I Do Is Destroy Rings is Skill.

Chapter 226 Oh Nege... Vadashi...

"Please, I'll do anything to live, please!"

"You tortoiseshell, you really only care about your own life and death."

The golden hawksbill turtle was completely cowardly. Although it knew that this was a shameful thing even in the human world, it still resolutely decided to do it.

Beside them, both groups of people were stunned at the same time. Then Xu Xuan rubbed his hands together with a big smile. This is great!

It is well known that humans are not trustworthy, therefore—.

"Cough cough~"

He gave Gu Long and Ning Fengxiao a look that suggested they cooperate, then gestured the number three, meaning that the other conditions remained the same, the fifty-year return would be changed to thirty years in exchange for the remaining two golden tortoiseshells.

Ning Fengxiao, who was not far away, rubbed his chin, then looked down at Ning Wuque, and met Gu Long's gaze, meaning that he had no objection and wanted to see what the two of them had to say.

Gu Long and Ning Wuque exchanged a glance. The former nodded slightly to indicate that he was fine with it too. It was just a trick on a soul beast, and he had no qualms about it. It was up to you, kid.

The latter slowly shook his head, and his subsequent words delivered a heavy blow to the golden tortoiseshell:

"Don't even think about it. I sensed that thing inside you as soon as I arrived, so your physical body is doomed to die, understand? Otherwise, it would have the same effect if I found my grandfather another 100,000-year-old turtle-type soul beast."

He laid his cards on the table. Since the golden tortoise shell had said so, there was no reason not to let him go for ordinary reasons. Moreover, its true age was 100,000 years! Even if he killed it, its intense resentment, coupled with its inherent quality, would be something Zhang Can could not absorb.

He's too old. Even with long-term recuperation, his body can't withstand the 100,000-year soul ring of the golden tortoise shell unless he absorbs several more soul bones.

However, Ning Wuque didn't want to gamble. From the very beginning, he had planned to have the golden tortoise shell be offered as a sacrifice to Zhang Can. But before he could say anything, the people from the Xuanming Sect arrived.

Before he was fully capable, Ning Wuque did not intend to reveal too much and cause unnecessary trouble.

"You...you can feel that thing inside me!? Damn it, I'm really going to be done for today!"

Upon hearing Ning Wuque's words, the golden tortoise simply lay down on the ground, waiting to die, without any thought of struggling.

It knew it was doomed.

Upon seeing this, everyone else turned to look at Ning Wuque. Could there be some treasure hidden inside the golden tortoise shell?! Even Gu Long narrowed his eyes and gave Xu Xuanzhi a dangerous look.

The treasure that Ning Wuque takes a liking to is a completely different thing from the treasure that others understand. In order to help him become a god, Gu's moral bottom line can't be lowered a little bit more.

Beside him, Xu Xuanzhi, feeling the dangerous look in Gu Long's eyes, was startled and took two steps back imperceptibly. No wonder, no wonder he had a bad feeling, no wonder Ning Wuque wouldn't change his mind even after he offered so many conditions.

So the contents inside this golden hawksbill turtle are more valuable than its life.

But he couldn't muster even a shred of greed. This ancient tortoise had its own set of survival rules: to survive by hiding! If they weren't so cunning, their sect wouldn't have been able to survive for thousands of years, growing from a small family ten thousand years ago into the behemoth it is today.

The ancient dragon's aura is now even greater than his. Keep in mind that he is almost two hundred years old this year, thirty or forty years older than him, and his cultivation is a level ninety-seven Super Douluo.

To be stronger than him only proves that Gu Long is already level 98! At this age, he might still reach his limit in his later years, making him someone you really can't afford to mess with.

Xu Xuan was stumped. He gave a gesture to the sect elders, and it looked like he was about to leave.

There's no need to sever the sect's lineage over a treasure. At worst, we can just write it down and retaliate a few hundred years later when the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile School is weaker.

Rats have their ways, and turtles have theirs.

"Senior Xu, there's no need for you to leave like this. Huang Daimao, shall we talk?"

"Talk? What's there to talk about? How can you survive?"

"Can."

"well?!"

The golden hawksbill turtle poked its head out of its shell again, its eyes fixed on Ning Wuque, as if trying to see through the truth in his words.

If it can live, it doesn't want to die!

Xu Xuan swallowed back the words of farewell that were about to come out of his mouth. Was there still a chance? No rush, let's wait and see. He was still very patient.

Ning Fengxiao, on the other hand, seemed to have suddenly realized something and understood what Ning Wuque was planning. He then gave Xu Xuan a reassuring look, which left the latter somewhat puzzled.

"Great-grandfather, thank you for your trouble."

"Can."

Nodding slightly, Gu Long reached out and grasped Ning Wuque and the golden tortoise shell, instantly pulling them into his spatial domain. He then instantly extended his shield hundreds of meters away, deploying two special spatial barriers to prevent any unforeseen events before nodding again.

"No problem."

"Alright, Xiaoshi, could you please come out for a moment?"

"Old turtle, shame on you, selling your comrades!"

After a flash of silver light, the Time-Reversing Lighthouse Mu Xiaoshi emerged from beside Ning Wuque and then floated in mid-air, pointing at the golden tortoiseshell and poking its spine.

What a despicable creature! It actually betrayed its own kind! Just so it could survive.

"What do you know, you little brat? I am, I am—no, what are you?! Why don't you have a body?"

The golden tortoiseshell blushed at those words. After realizing what had happened, it carefully examined Xiao Shi's body and discovered that the other party was not a soul beast at all, but just a tangible but intangible spiritual entity.

What the hell is this thing? It's been around for almost 100,000 years, and it's never seen anything like it before.

"Soul~ Spirit~ Soul~ Spirit~"

"This is what I wanted to talk to you about. This is a soul spirit, a way for soul beasts to continue existing in the world in a special way. They abandon their physical bodies and rely on humans to live forever as a spiritual entity, which is a kind of alternative immortality."

"Immortality! You must be joking."

The golden tortoiseshell was utterly shocked. Immortality? How could that be possible? Even a spiritual body has its day of dissipation, just like the physical body ages.

Ning Wuque did not refute this much, but instead took out the Soul Contract and began to explain to the Golden Tortoise Shell.

The latter found it increasingly unbelievable. Could it really be like this? Wasn't this equivalent to letting a soul beast train a soul master? If a soul beast had the right experience, it could absolutely achieve true immortality through generations of soul masters!

"How about it? As long as you offer a sacrifice to my grandfather, then we can each get what we want. I know the Golden Tortoiseshell Clan. You won't live more than 200,000 years. As for you? The feeling of being drained by the life-giving gold is not pleasant, is it? Your true lifespan should be more than 30,000 years."
