Lando shook his head and suppressed the inexplicable desire to complain in his heart. He had already thought of who Ya Ya was talking about.
It was the little friend it had been playing with, the little flower fairy who often gave Lando various fruits.
It can’t be trying to please my future father-in-law, right?! Do I want to agree to this marriage?!
Once again, he suppressed the desire to complain that surged in his heart.
Then Lando showed a strange expression. He remembered that Xiao Liuli had told him before that he had been invited to play at Xiaohuaxian's house. At that time, Lando thought it was in a certain forest in the college and didn't care much. But now he heard that
What did Xiao Liuli mean? The place he was invited to was actually the Paradise of Spirits?
Can that little flower fairy invite me to be a guest in the future?!
"Do you still remember that Yaya's home?" Lando asked the little Liuli in his hand.
Xiao Liuli: I know, I know!
Lando nodded: "Let's go and visit."
Then, under the leadership of Xiao Liuli, Lando walked through the dense woods.
Along the way, we met many various spiritual creatures. Although they did not approach Lando, they did not show any fear of strangers. Instead, they hesitated and looked at him curiously.
Not long after, Lando was led by Xiao Liuli to a huge tree. This giant tree was of the same species as the other trees around it, but it was more than three times larger in size. The bark was covered with mottled marks.
, seems to have existed for countless years.
There are many elves and flower fairies on the giant tree. They are singing and dancing together, looking very happy.
Lando stopped where he was, letting Xiao Liuli fly over happily, and naturally joined in. Maybe those little guys also regarded Xiao Liuli as a member of the spirit.
Fortunately, Xiao Liuli still remembered that her father was there, and after a while, she brought the little flower fairy named Yaya to Lando.
The little flower fairies are very intelligent beings. According to the academy records, although they have the appearance of humans, they cannot speak before they grow to a certain age. They have their own internal means of communication, and they can also understand human language.
.
Lando can actually communicate with each other mentally, but it is impolite to communicate with people he is not familiar with mentally, so under normal circumstances he will not do this. Fortunately, there is a relationship between him and the little flower fairy in front of him.
Little translator.
Lando said: "I want to meet your elders and ask about the place where souls are buried."
Xiaohuaxian Yaya blinked and gestured to Lando.
follow me?
Lando easily understood the meaning of Xiaohuaxian Yaya's gesture, but the little translator didn't use it.
Following Xiaohuaxian Yaya, Lando came to the giant tree. The former pointed at the giant tree, then approached and gently patted the tree.
After a moment, nothing happened. Xiaohuaxian Yaya was stunned for a moment, and then noticed the doubtful glances of Lando and Xiao Liuli. Her face suddenly turned red. She kicked the giant tree angrily, and she ended up
Tears of pain almost fell down.
The giant tree seemed to wake up all of a sudden and began to sway. The trunk of the tree slowly squirmed, and eyebrows, eyes, mouth and nose slowly grew.
If it were in a dark forest, this scene might seem very scary, but all Lando felt at this time was peace. The giant tree in front of him exuded a power that could soothe people's hearts. The face of the old man also gave people a strange feeling.
A kind feeling.
Lando fell into deep thought. He was not surprised by the situation in front of him, but felt that this kind of spiritual power that could soothe people's hearts and make people feel safe and trustworthy had great potential. It would be great if he could study it.
"Young man, why do I feel that you are thinking of something rude?" the giant tree old man said gently.
Lando came back to his senses. As an expert in the use of psychic power, he was not afraid of the other party's insight into his thoughts, and the idea of pushing the giant tree in front of him onto the experimental platform must have never happened before.
"I just think your form of existence is a little strange and you are a little distracted. I have seen tree spirits before, and they seem to be in a similar state to yours, but also somewhat different." Lando said.
The giant tree old man smiled slightly and said: "Of course it is different. I am a member of the spirit. You can call me the old tree spirit."
Speaking of this, the old tree spirit glanced at the sulky little Hua Xian Yaya flying in the air, and continued: "You should be the arcanist of Gastro Academy, tell me, can you please wake me up?"
What's the matter? Are you attracted by a certain spirit and want me to give you some advice? Or are you looking for some spirits with special abilities?"
Lando's eyes lit up. Although his main goal this time was the burial place of souls, it would not be bad if he could contract a soul with matching abilities.
Suppressing this thought for the time being, Lando said: "Old Tree Spirit, I want to go to the burial place of spirits. I don't know what I need to do?"
"The place where spirits are buried?" The old tree spirit man was obviously stunned and said, "The places where spirits are buried are generally not open to the public."
Not open to the public?!
Lando's heart sank. If this was the case, it would be a bit difficult to handle, but didn't Mir say that the Soul Burial Ground is a resource of the Paradise of Spirits?
Just as Lando recalled Mir's words carefully, the old tree spirit continued: "But since you are Yaya's friend, you are not considered an outsider. I will just take you there."
Lando:?!
Maybe I really am missing a tree spirit on my experimental bench!
As a unique resource, Lando thought that if he wanted to go to the Soul Burial Land, he would need to complete some kind of test like the other two secret realm stars.
After thinking about it, Lando understood that the purpose of the Soul Burial Ground is to breed new spirits, and other people go here to breed those items that are originally spiritual, so that they can give birth to spirits.
It is originally consistent with the purpose of the existence of the burial place.
He glanced at Yaya, maybe becoming friends with the spirits was the test for being allowed to go to the place where spirits are buried.
Lando smiled bitterly in his heart. He didn't have a good idea when he went to the Soul Burial Ground. Moreover, after arriving in this paradise of spirits, he became more and more sure that his suspicion was correct.
The face of the old man on the giant tree slowly smoothed and disappeared. A burst of green light spread from the giant tree, condensed not far in front of Lando, and transformed into an old man with a white beard.
This old man with a white beard is only as tall as two adult fists. He wears a green cloak, a green high-horned magic hat, and holds an emerald cane. He looks very kind-hearted.
The old tree spirit man moved his body first, and then said to Lando: "I haven't walked in this posture for a long time. Come on, I will take you to the burial place."
Lando followed the old tree spirit, Xiao Liuli naturally followed her father, and Xiao Huaxian Yaya also followed after seeing this situation.
In this way, one person and three spirits quickly traveled through the paradise of spirits.
It seemed that they hadn't spoken to each other for a long time. The old tree spirit and the old man had quite a sexual conversation along the way. Although Lando was a little worried, he did not ignore him.
The trip was not very fast, and it only took an hour to reach the destination.
As they approached, before the old tree spirit opened his mouth, Lando rubbed his brows and said, "Are we here?"
Although it was a question, he was actually certain.
The old tree spirit didn't seem to pay attention to this detail. He pointed to a huge basin in front and said: "This is the place where your souls are buried, and it is also the nurturing place of our souls!"
Lando crossed the tree spirit old man and saw the entire land of burial spirits. This place is about five kilometers in diameter and one hundred meters deep. The outer wall and bottom are covered with a kind of crystal stone, and countless starlights swim in it.
Drag, it looks beautiful.
Calmly preventing the system from devouring the surrounding spirituality, Lando has completely determined that the 'spirit' is one of the energies that the system can directly absorb and transform into the soul source, similar to the energy in the heart of the world.
As early as when he first came to Gastro Academy and came into contact with the knowledge related to spirits, Lando had a strange feeling. It was not until Mir mentioned the Burial Place of Souls when introducing the Paradise of Spirits that he finally understood everything.
However, Lando was not completely sure at the time, so he decided to use that opportunity.
After entering the Paradise of Spirits, the system's speed of condensing soul essence suddenly accelerated. At that time, he was almost sure of his guess. When he arrived at the place where souls were buried, the system could indeed directly swallow the soul and turn it into soul essence.
Lando even felt that all spirits could be directly swallowed by his system after death.
Another source of soul essence was obtained, but facing the large area of soul essence in front of him, Lando could only smile bitterly. Just as he couldn't bear the blame of Silver Tower after destroying the world of the Four Kings, he can't now
After bearing the blame of Gastro Academy for devouring the Soul Burial Ground.
He glanced at the old tree spirit beside him. In this case, there was no need to reveal his ability to swallow spirits.
According to his original idea, after finishing the things at hand, he would go to the Black Realm to find a suitable world and see if he could connect to the heart of the world. If it could be done, it would be best and everyone would be happy. If it couldn't be done, he would have to 'sacrifice' four people.
King of the world.
But now, it seems that there is another option. If he can find a world with a large number of spiritual beings, he seems to be able to achieve his goal, at least it can be a two-pronged approach.
Compared to connecting to the heart of the world which relies entirely on luck, the latter option is more reliable.
Seeing that Lando remained silent, the old tree spirit said gently: "How is it? Are you sure?"
Lando was shocked. He looked at the old man in front of him. He should only know that his purpose was to cultivate spiritual objects. Why would he know his inner thoughts? Could it be...
"Don't worry, your little guy's spiritual attainments are indeed good. I can't see your inner thoughts. In fact, even if you don't have spiritual power, I won't pry into your heart casually. And the reason why I can guess what you are thinking is
What, it’s all because I’ve lived long enough!”
"Little guy, the power of the mind is not omnipotent. Don't get lost in it just because it's powerful, otherwise, you will definitely regret it in the future." The old tree spirit said with a sigh.
Seeing Lando's silence, the old tree spirit continued: "If you want spirits or auras to be used for research, you can submit an application to the academy. We are not stubborn people. There are always some unsociable spirits.
, but if you have a large demand, forget it, neither the academy nor the Paradise of Spirits will agree. If you want it, you can only go to the Black Realm to find it yourself."
Is it really going to fall into the dark realm?
Lando asked: "Is there any way to directly search for the existence of spirits?"
The old tree spirit was about to speak, but after a sudden pause, he said: "Yes, there are many ways to find spirits in Gastro Academy. In fact, our Spirit Paradise has always had related rewards. As long as we find and
When the spirit is brought back to the Paradise of Spirits, we will give different levels of rewards based on the specific circumstances."
"Of course there is a more effective method. There is induction between spirits. But for ordinary spirits, this induction is very weak. Only some special spirits have strong induction and can even transcend
The world finds the existence of other spirits."
Looking for other spirits across the world? This is so convenient!
Lando said: "I wonder if there is such a spirit in the Paradise of Spirits now. I should be able to sign a contract with a spirit!"
"Yes, yes, but..." The old tree spirit hesitated.
"What, what's the problem?" Lando asked.
The old tree spirit nodded and said: "There is one such spirit now, but it is a strange spirit and has not been completely purified. But with your spiritual power, it will be no problem."
"Wraith?" For some reason, just hearing this name made Lando feel a little creepy.
Could it be related to Mr. Ke? This is an orthodox arcane world!!!
"Weird spirits are actually spirits that have gone crazy for inexplicable reasons. If you sign a contract with them, you may be infected by their madness. You have to think about it carefully," said the old tree spirit.
Don't think so. Say goodbye! I'd rather find it slowly by myself, little by little!
Seeing Lando's refusal, the old man of the tree spirit immediately changed the topic and said: "Actually, this kind of madness will not have much impact on users of psychic power, and it can even exercise you."
"And madness can be diluted and offset. We keep this strange spirit just to purify its madness. After all, it is the last remnant of a powerful spirit that can fight against gods."
Can madness be diluted and counteracted? Can it be purified? This does not seem to be Cthulhu!
"Can its madness be completely purified?" Lando asked.
"Of course!" the old tree spirit said matter-of-factly.
Lando breathed a sigh of relief. Although he didn't know much about the Ke system, he had the impression that once contaminated, he couldn't get rid of it. It seemed that he was scaring himself.
Just in case, he directly dialed Instructor Odo's communication. At this time, of course, he would ask the 'parents'.
At this time, in the office of the rotating speaker.
Otto was reading leisurely, and the mountains of documents that were once piled on his desk had completely disappeared.
As the communication sounded, Odo glanced at it and saw that it was his disciple.
After getting through in a good mood, he said: "What's wrong, brat, you won't be in any trouble, right?"
Mentor, you don’t have to understand me so well!
Lando opened his mouth, but finally threw away the polite words and said straight to the point: "Teacher, I want to ask about the news about the ghost."
