Chapter 748: Chapter 344 Fishing_1

After these chains were pulled out, they were like noodles and Qin Shou slurped them all into his mouth.

"Burp... tastes good." Qin Shou let out a satisfied burp and smiled.

Yamata no Orochi, on the other hand, looked at Qin Shou with disbelief, and then at its own mind and soul, finally murmuring with empty eyes, "I..."

Boom!

The mind and soul of Yamata no Orochi exploded, scattering to the winds!

The Yuan Qi within its mind and soul dissipated, and Qin Shou slurped again, absorbing it into his belly.

"Why did it just blow itself up?" the Eight Trigrams Furnace asked curiously.

Chongba explained, "It’s quite simple. The mind and soul are basically a fusion of the soul with the way and Yuan Qi. It signifies a person’s level of proficiency with the way, and the more ways integrated into it, the stronger the mind and soul becomes. The more and stronger Magic Rules it can utilize,

the body is just a tool for the application of the way’s power... Another way to put it is, the mind and soul generate thoughts, the way connects the great path of heaven and earth with the body, the body activates the Yuan Qi, and the great path of heaven and earth works with the Yuan Qi’s movements, thus allowing for the wielding of the power of heaven and earth to manifest magic.

So, even if the tool dies, the mind and soul can live on.

But if the mind and soul have their way siphoned off, then what’s left of the soul and Yuan Qi is like losing the ropes that bind them; naturally, they’ll just explode.

Without the protection of the way and Yuan Qi, the soul is extremely fragile.

That tiny explosion was enough to kill it."

After pondering, the Eight Trigrams Furnace asked the Rabbit, "Rabbit, wouldn’t it have been simpler if you’d just swallowed it whole? Why go through all the trouble of doing this convoluted thing, isn’t it bothersome?"

Qin Shou rolled his eyes and said, "I, for one, am content with consuming a bit of the way and Yuan Qi, but eat a soul? It just feels gross."

In fact, in the many years that Qin Shou has been in the Earthly Immortal Realm, he really hasn’t eaten any sentient demons.

Most of what he had eaten were ordinary meats, and even during his time in the Heavenly Court, he consumed non-sentient spirits.

Deep down, he did not approve of eating sentient beings; it felt too much like eating people... which was something he couldn’t quite stomach.

The thought of eating human souls felt roughly the same, so at his core, Qin Shou still rejected it.

Of course, killing people and eating people are two different concepts. Qin Shou didn’t mind killing people, but he objected to eating them.

"Rabbit, what’s our next move? The situation is quite peculiar at the moment; those three Overlords aren’t messing around," the Eight Trigrams Furnace said.

Chongba also said, "Yeah, those three Overlords are too frightening. With our current strength, we don’t stand a chance."

Qin Shou replied, "What’s the rush? Since they haven’t made their move yet, we still have time."

Fat Cat asked, "What are you thinking of doing?"

Qin Shou, with a hint of ferocity, looked at Fat Cat and said, "How many Overlords did my master beat up?"

Fat Cat subconsciously replied, "He beat up four earlier, not sure how many afterwards."

Qin Shou said, "That’s enough. I don’t expect to fight ten at once, but three... there should still be hope."

"Rabbit, are you insane? You’re just a Human Immortal right now; what are you going to use to fight them?" Chongba was frantic.

The Eight Trigrams Furnace also said, "Rabbit, I think we should plan for the long term instead."

Fat Cat understood even better than Chongba and the Eight Trigrams Furnace the horrors of the Cultivation Technique currently practiced by Qin Shou; Martial Immortals were simply freaks gambling their lives on cheats!

One couldn’t measure the strength of a Martial Immortal by conventional means; their breakthroughs didn’t necessarily occur at set minor or major levels. It was quite possible that they were a mere mortal yesterday, an Immortal today, a Great Golden Immortal the day after, and with a turn and an explosion, they become an Overlord.

Especially this rabbit, Fat Cat had personally witnessed its ascension from an explosion to Immortalhood.

So, whatever miracle happened to this rabbit, he found none surprising.

"Rabbit, are you sure you can do it?" Fat Cat asked.

Qin Shou nodded and said, "Almost, but I’ll need your help."

Fat Cat was taken aback and asked, "How can I help?"

Qin Shou chuckled...

"A whole planet, oh." A disheveled Taoist was sitting on a meteor, baring his teeth as he exclaimed.

Next to him, a bald, chubby Monk said viciously, "Stop lamenting, a glance is enough. Do you even think of coveting it?"

The Taoist lamented, "Fuddy-duddy, if I can’t have it, can’t I even look at it? I heard there are some little monsters up there, and some beautiful little demonesses, heh heh... You practice Huanxi Zen, don’t you feel envious?"

Hearing the six words ’beautiful little demonesses,’ the Monk’s breathing accelerated noticeably, and streams of pink Qi couldn’t stop escaping from his body; a mound promptly rose beneath his monk’s robe.

The Monk said, "I wish I could pounce on them right now!"

At that moment, a very small meteor drifted by, floating leisurely past the two of them.

The Taoist didn’t react much, but the Monk’s eyes suddenly lit up, and he turned around saying, "Fuddy-duddy, you have fun by yourself, Buddha Boy here has something to take care of."

After speaking, the Monk waved his robe sleeve, and the meteor he was sitting on chased after the smaller one.

The Taoist was taken aback, his eyeballs rolling, and his Divine Sense spread out and enveloped the small meteor.

At that moment, the Monk’s Divine Sense also spread out, and with a bam, it collided with the Taoist’s, obviously protecting the meteor.

The Taoist sneered, "Sure enough, there’s something tricky. Fuddy-duddy, you think you can hog it all to yourself!"

Hearing that, the Monk was about to curse in anger but saw someone looking over from a distance. He quickly forced a smile and said, "You fuddy-duddy, you should have said earlier if you were interested. Come with me, let’s find an empty place."

Upon hearing this, the look of the onlooker turned instantly disdainful, then they turned away.

The Taoist was momentarily stunned, then heard the Monk’s telepathic message: "We can share the benefits, but do not make a fuss, or we’ll miss our part."

The Taoist nodded with a smile, all the while covertly readying a flying needle, his vigilance against the Monk at its highest. Clearly, none mixed in this place without being shrewd; share the benefits together?

If that were truly feasible, they wouldn’t have ended up in this godforsaken place.

With their respective plots in mind, the two walked off into the distance until they were out of other people’s eyesight. Then the Monk turned around to stand between the Taoist and the meteor, his smile ungenuine as he said, "Fellow Taoist, to be honest, there’s a charming person hidden inside this meteor. As you’re not fond of the fairer sex, why bother contending with this poor Monk? If you concede it to me, you’ll owe me a favor, how does that sound?"

The Taoist didn’t believe a word and shook his head, "Sanhe Monk, how well do you think I don’t know what kind of person you are? I’d believe you over my dead body! Either give me something good first, or you expect me to give in? What do you think?"

Upon hearing this, the Sanhe Monk frowned and said, "Fellow Qiangu, why must it be this way? You should understand that we don’t possess any treasures anymore; what could I possibly give you? A favor may not be worth much here, but at a crucial moment, it can save a life."

Qiangu Daoist, upon hearing that, subconsciously nodded along.
