Shocking! The female protagonist unlocked her powers by killing people!

Chapter 224 Ling 1 and Ji Yanzhi are a pair

Bai Qingjue only knew about the internal strife within the Spirit Clan and the cooperation between Wu Huiyuan and the Divine Descendants, never imagining that the problem actually lay with the Spirit Clan's Mother Tree.

But thinking about it, it makes sense. The Spirit Clan's Mother Tree is of paramount importance to the Spirit Clan. Wu Huiyuan took power because the Mother Tree was corrupted. If he were Wu Huiyuan, he wouldn't have leaked the news. But Ye Qingshuang... just said it like that. Isn't she afraid it will get out?

Just trust them like that?

"So what do you plan to do now?" Bai Qingjue looked at Ye Qingshuang: "Just give up?"

Ye Qingshuang shook her head: "I can't control it."

Bai Qingjue frowned. If it were an ordinary spirit race, it would be fine, but Ye Huanling was a spirit race that had been groomed to be the next king of the spirit race. If she didn't care, wouldn't the spirit race have to continue like this forever?

The corruption of the Spirit Clan's Mother Tree is a good thing for the descendants of the gods, but it is a very distressing thing for Bai Qingjue. However, he himself is still trapped, so even if he knew, he could not help, since purification is not his forte.

Bai Qingjue remained silent and did not ask any further questions.

The others remained silent as the group quietly made their way to the Divine Palace. On their journey, they encountered several explosions, each one releasing a group of people, most of whom were descendants of the gods, while others were from various factions across the Nine Domains and Eighteen Continents.

The fact that they were able to get this far demonstrates the depth and influence of those powerful forces.

"Strange." Bai Qingjue frowned slightly as he glanced at the people who had come out. People from the divine lineage and other forces had arrived, but no one from the Tian family had been seen yet.

Thinking of this, Bai Qingjue glanced at Ji Yanzhi.

However, Ji Yanzhi showed no reaction whatsoever, so Bai Qingjue had no choice but to continue on her way. As she got closer to the Divine Palace, more and more forces appeared, and everyone moved towards the Divine Palace.

"Boom"

As they approached the first palace, a powerful surge of spiritual energy emanated from ahead. Those rushing forward sensed the energy and immediately stopped and retreated.

They knew all too well how powerful the explosion of such a strong spiritual energy fluctuation would be, but to everyone's surprise, just as the spiritual energy fluctuation in front reached its limit, a crack appeared out of thin air, and the next moment, the power scattered, like a deflated ball.

Under everyone's watchful eyes, someone emerged from the crack.

Their blue and white cloud-patterned uniforms immediately identified the team.

Tianzhou Tianjia.

After the younger disciples came out, it was the older men who were a bit older. After the older men were two handsome young men who were not wearing clan robes. After the two young men came out a tall man with a cold and stern face.

"He is the head of the Tian family."

"I didn't expect the head of the Tian family to come in person."

"Which of the two boys beside the patriarch is the young master?"

"do not know……"

“The young master of the Tian family is mysterious. Apart from his guards, no one in the Tian family has ever seen him. It is said that the young master is in a deep sleep for many years. I see that the two young men are full of energy and do not seem to be people who are in a deep sleep for many years. They should not be the young master, but just the young master of the Tian family.”

"That's strange. The patriarch goes out without the young master but with other young masters. It seems that the young master is not very favored."

Whether someone is favored or not will not prevent them from firmly holding onto their position as the young master.

"That's true."

The surrounding chatter was quite loud, but the Tian family ignored it and turned to walk towards the shrine.

Seeing this, people from other factions all followed suit.

As the group stepped onto the plaza of the first palace, the sound of the tides rang in their ears. The tightly closed palace doors slowly opened, and waves surged out of the palace, rushing towards the group, only to rise again just before engulfing them.

Under everyone's gaze, a figure appeared atop the rising waves.

It was a male merman with blue hair and a blue tail.

The merman stood atop the waves, coldly looking down at the crowd below: "To enter the palace behind me, you must pass through a realm. The realm is restricted to two people traveling together. I will give you the time it takes for an incense stick to burn to choose your companions. If anyone is without a companion by the deadline, they will travel with someone who is also without a companion."

"Wait a minute!" someone questioned, "Why can only two people travel together?"

"That's right, we came together, why can't we stay together?"

"The previous entrances to the space allowed us to enter together, so why can't we do it now?"

"Good question." The merman raised his hand, and ice shards condensed in his palm. "Unfortunately, you have no right to ask questions." With that, the merman clapped his hands, and the ice shards flew out with a whoosh.

It moved with lightning speed, heading straight for the people who had just asked the questions.

Upon seeing the attack, the group turned and ran. In order to survive, they deliberately ran towards crowded areas. However, when the icicles touched other people, they melted into water and bypassed them, without harming anyone who shouldn't have been hurt. Their control over water and ice amazed the onlookers.

"puff"

The icicles caught up with the fleeing group and pierced their chests.

"Uh……"

The attacked people thought they were going to die, but found that they felt no pain at all. Just as they were feeling relieved, a crack appeared behind them. A powerful suction force came out of the crack and sucked them in. Then the crack closed up as if it had never existed.

Seeing this, even those who had doubts dared not remain silent.

They may be powerful outside, but in the place known as the 'Divine Kingdom', their cultivation is insignificant.

The merman's gaze swept over the crowd, and he said coldly, "As the one who has opened the first realm, I will not kill anyone, so you can rest assured."

Upon hearing this, someone cautiously asked, "So, those people didn't die?"

The merman nodded: "Of course."

The man was relieved: "That's good."

The merman looked at the man and continued, "But I've thrown them into the sea monster's territory. Is there anyone else who wants to go?"

These words silenced the entire room once again.

They weren't killed, but they were thrown into the sea monster's territory. What's the difference between that and killing them?

If you get killed by a sea monster, you'll be eaten anyway. It's better to die here; at least you'll have a corpse.

Those who were sent away were furious, but the merfolk were far stronger than them, so their anger was useless.

"Very good." Seeing that no one spoke, the merman was satisfied. With a wave of his hand, an ice shard appeared, and a string of blue flames shot out from the top of the ice shard. The flames landed on the ice shard and began to melt it.

The merman looked down at the crowd and said, "Find your companions before the ice shards completely melt, or I will make arrangements for you."

The flames burned the ice shards extremely quickly, and everyone dared not delay, fearing they would be assigned to strangers, so they immediately formed teams.

"I'll team up with Baijiu." As soon as the team rules were announced, Bai Qingjue chose Baijiu.

Ye Qingshuang looked at him: "Why are you in such a hurry?"

Bai Qingjue remained silent, but he could tell from the situation that Ling Yi and Ji Yanzhi were in the same group, and he was worried about letting Ye Qingshuang bring the liquor.

"Alright then." Ye Qingshuang looked at Lin Chengtian: "He chose the liquor, so I can only choose you."
