Chapter 964 - 494: Sublimation of Top Grade Superpower (2)

Ling Yu lightly flapped his wings and asked, "Last time it was too far away, and the Bailing Ring couldn’t discern what kind of superpower was controlling the Illusory Scale Mosquitoes. Can you tell now?"

Chi Ling’s tone carried a hint of shock: "The Bailing Ring tells me it’s a very rare top grade superpower, but it doesn’t confirm the name of the superpower."

Ling Yu listened with a surprised expression, but he also felt it was natural: "This genius human knight, using only the strength of an early stage knight, could drive away the high rank knight’s Soul Worm King, so it’s not surprising that he awakened a top grade superpower."

The knight immediately smiled: "If the White Feather Race can marry into human knights, our race might hope to have descendants awakening top grade superpowers."

However, Chi Ling was not so optimistic: "Top grade superpowers are extremely rare. The White Feather Civilization has descended for over 150 years, and a top grade superpower has never been born. If marriage could bring about top grade superpowers, then those powerful civilizations would have long possessed a great number of superpower users who have awakened top grade superpowers."

Ling Yu smiled and said, "Even if it’s not a top grade superpower, it would at least be a very outstanding middle grade superpower. The probability of advancing to a high rank knight in the future won’t be low."

Chi Ling felt a bit speechless.

Before they had even met the human knight, you were already thinking of the future descendants advancing to high rank knights. Isn’t this thinking too far ahead?

Ling Yu changed the topic and said with admiration: "The Green Sea Insect Monsters are protected by the Green Sea Will. Trying to control them is by no means easy. The human knight at least controlled 500 Illusory Scale Mosquitoes for up to fifteen Primordial Days, truly befitting a top grade superpower."

Chi Ling agreed: "Indeed, it is impressive."

In the early years, the White Feather Civilization attempted to control the insect monsters of the Green Sea World as free labor.

But the White Feather People quickly discovered that attempts to control insect monsters with low grade superpowers would infuriate the insect monsters, making them extremely frenzied, leading to relentless pursuit of the controller.

Only middle grade superpowers had the capability to successfully control insect monsters, but success wasn’t guaranteed; middle grade superpowers of lesser quality would still fail.

And the controlled insect monsters’ souls naturally had a force that constantly resisted control. At most, after two or three Primordial Days, the control imprint would be destroyed, allowing the insect monster to break free from control.

So over time, the White Feather Race gave up the attempt to control insect monsters.

"Hoo~"

The wind picked up.

"Ah~"

The crying became louder.

Earlier, there was only a faint sobbing sound; now the crying sounded like someone was sobbing nearby, as though many people were weeping together.

Chi Ling immediately sensed an eerie force seeping into her soul from all directions.

She knew that this was the power of the "Deceitful Crying Spirit" that appeared with the Weeping Rain; the crying throughout the rainforest was actually the Deceitful Crying Spirit weeping.

If the soul was eroded to a certain degree and consciousness was mostly lost, even a Venerable might not be able to save them.

Over the years, the number of White Feather People who died due to the Weeping Rain probably numbered not less than eighty thousand to a hundred thousand.

The Deceitful Crying Spirit is a peculiar entity with no physical form, nor does it exist in soul form.

Most notably, not even knights can see the Deceitful Crying Spirit; only a Venerable can see them.

Chi Ling immediately performed a secret technique of her race, and a cool sensation rose from her chest and abdomen into her brain, resisting the erosion.

She asked, "We should be close to the base built by the human knight’s civilization in the Green Sea by now. How should we locate the human knight?"

Ling Yu pondered for a moment, then said, "This civilization can cultivate such a talented knight, it must be much more powerful than the White Feather Civilization.

"If we rashly approach their base, it’s highly likely to arouse hostility from them, which could lead to unpredictable consequences."

Chi Ling nodded, indicating agreement.

The White Feather Race wanted to ask the human knight to deal with the Soul Worm King, and also sought to marry, so naturally, they couldn’t offend this human civilization.

Ling Yu immediately made a decision: "We will leave a visiting mark on the surface of the nearby Green Sky Gourd Leaves; this human civilization will certainly see it, then we wait for their response."

The so-called "visiting mark" is a means for civilizations to cautiously make contact with each other. Only knights have the ability to leave marks, and only knights can see them.

He looked at his companion and smiled: "You can use the Supreme Treasure to leave a soul message targeting human knights within the mark, making it easier for them to decode, and it also showcases the strength of the White Feather Race."

Chi Ling didn’t object: "No problem."

Ling Yu flapped his wings: "Let’s go."

The two quickly left, one after the other.

A few seconds later.

The rain of the Green Sea rainforest finally started to fall.

"Crash~"

Countless raindrops plunged from the sky, striking the Green Sky Gourd Leaves, creating a very dense sound.

*

Meanwhile.

Beside the Green Sea Base.

Just as the crying wind grew stronger.

The tree branch of the Green Sky Gourd where the team was stationed, its bark gently brightened.

Glints of green light rose from the bark, hovered around the group for a moment, then returned to the bark, repeating this cycle.

Although the group found the cries overwhelmingly noisy, they didn’t feel their souls were being invaded by an external force.

"Crack! Crack!"

Ling Shuiling was amazed and controlled the drone to take a few photos, making sure to record a video as well.

She turned to look at Long legged Sister, curiously asking, "Xiaoying, what’s going on?"

Zhao Xiaoying was open about it: "The crying wind of the Green Sea possesses a dreadful power capable of eroding the souls of outsiders.

"Therefore, Mr. Ghost found a way to use a Green Sky Gourd to build the Green Sea Base, ensuring that as long as we stay above this Green Sky Gourd, its power can protect us."
