Dragon Island, which is monitored by the entire Holy See, is also undergoing an unprecedented event.
In the blue lake, the water is bubbling. With this lake as the center, the people from Long Island within a radius of ten kilometers are surrounded by a water-blocking area.
Not to mention spies from other forces, not even an ant can crawl in.
Next to the lake in the center stood the elders of Dragon Island with serious expressions.
Lin Ming stood not far from them, not holding much hope for what was going to happen next.
It turns out that in addition to using blood to wash away the seal that the ancestors were corpses, there is another way for Bai Xue to break free from the shackles of this seal.
That's exchange.
Let a person sink to the bottom of the lake and voluntarily bear the daily torture of the seal on Bai Xue's behalf, and then Bai Xue can come out of the seal.
This method sounds very simple at first, but in fact no one has tried it.
For the respected elders like Longdao, this method is unproven and uncertain.
They will not choose this method unless necessary.
However, the Holy See tried again and again, even exchanging the blood of the androids en masse, just to force Bai Xue into the seal, which completely angered this group of people with a bad temper.
They were unwilling to leave their fate in the hands of others, so they chose to start this adventure.
They have never experienced such an experiment before, so who will be exchanged and what dangers will arise under what conditions are all unknown.
Therefore, those who choose to enter the lake for exchange are all warriors who do not care about death.
Not only the selected young adults in the ethnic group, but also the elders have already made such preparations.
Lin Ming watched their entire election process.
When the news came out that Bai Xue had been sealed by their compatriots, the entire clan was furious.
The messages about the exchange that then broke out made the young people even more eager to give it a try.
Lin Ming had never seen such a leadership style before. Bai Xue didn't even do anything, but those young people already regarded him as a god.
Is this the power that belongs to the bloodline within the ethnic group?
He can't understand.
But looking at those brave young people who were not afraid of death, he couldn't help but respect them.
I can only watch from the sidelines and pray that they succeed.
"Let's get started."
The sky was gray, and I don't know when it started to rain lightly. The small ripples were mixed with the bubbles rolling on the surface of the lake.
The fog from the distant mountains slowly spread towards the lake, and a light layer of mist enveloped the lake.
The great elder's deep voice seemed to blend with the mist, falling heavily on everyone's heart.
Lin Ming looked at the young man who had fought with him yesterday and walked into the lake as if he was dead.
The lake water gradually spread to his chest, and the young man's face also showed a distorted and painful look. He gritted his teeth and endured it bitterly.
Probably no one except him knew what kind of pain he was going through, but bystanders could already guess from his expression that replacing the seal was not as simple as it sounds.
"Okay, come back as soon as you can't bear it anymore."
It was rare for the Great Elder to speak such a long sentence.
But the young man who was already in the lake stubbornly refused to take a step back. He raised his legs with difficulty and took another step forward. The water spread to his chin this time.
The lake water is boiling even more fiercely.
The face of the young man who fell into the water turned red, and water drops rolled down his face.
"Ahhhhhh!"
He screamed in pain, and the veins in his neck popped out.
Everyone's hearts were twitching.
The great elder's eyes narrowed, he stretched out his hand, and the invisible air flow pulled the person directly out of the lake.
When the young man was dragged out, everyone knew why he had screamed just now.
His body, from the neck down, was actually filled with white bones.
It only took a few minutes from the time he entered the water until he was pulled out by the great elder.
And in these few minutes, the seemingly docile lake water actually corroded his body completely.
Even with the physical strength of the Long Island people, such injuries would take a long time to recover.
Those who had not yet entered the lake were silent.
The great elder looked at the young man who was still crying and handed him to the people around him.
"Take him down and give him good treatment."
After doing all this, he remained silent.
"Anyone else want to try it?"
Another young man stood up silently.
The expression on his face was not only a look at death, but also anxiety.
The great elder looked at these young children and clenched his fists at his side.
Should these young children be exchanged for an illusory hope?
He hesitated a little, and even felt a little regretful.
The third elder was much more decisive than him at this time, and directly pulled back the young man who was about to walk into the lake.
"Okay, okay, I told you that if you don't practice hard in normal times, now that you won't be able to use any of them at the critical moment, I'll try it myself."
After Long Ba dragged the young man back, he started walking towards the lake.
"Don't stare. You don't have to worry about me. Even if there is any problem, I will be back in time."
At this moment, he was not aware of the seriousness of the problem, and those on the sidelines were confident enough in his strength.
The great elder was silent for a while, then nodded and acquiesced to his action.
Long Ba was very fast, and soon he was close to the center of the lake.
Just when everyone thought the replacement was expected to be successful, Long Ba suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood.
You must know that Long Ba is a real Grandmaster. How long did he stay in the lake before he started coughing up blood?
This lake is really powerful, no wonder it can seal a powerful monster like Bai Xue.
The Great Elder wants to return to his old ways and drag Long Ba back.
But I don’t know if Long Ba was too close to the center, and the Great Elder failed to bring him back.
Lin Ming couldn't help but stepped forward, but was stopped by the great elder.
"Don't come close."
Lin Ming stood on the shore and watched, watching the Great Elder fly over the lake, roll up a ball of lake water and bring Long Ba back.
Long Ba's condition is similar to that of the young man before, but his condition is better.
"You can't go into the water."
"The corpses of our ancestors have absorbed too much of the blood of their fellow tribesmen, and the suppression on them is too strong."
"After entering the water, there is no way to free yourself."
"This method cannot be tried."
Long Ba talked about his experience intermittently.
"Once it falls into the water, it will become a sealed part."
The great elder was silent. Looking at Long Ba, who had not been in such a state of embarrassment for a long time, he asked people to carry him away, and then dismissed the restless young people around him.
In the end, only Lin Ming stood beside the great elder.
