After hearing Shen Lang's words, Queen Medusa calmed down.
Then, the two of them fell into silence.
"Did you come from there?" Queen Medusa asked.
The place she was talking about was the Ten Thousand Mile Great Desert. However, many secrets could be seen from these two words.
In ancient times, there were only two empires, one on land and one on the sea, so it was fine to just say there.
Shen Lang said, "Yes."
Queen Medusa said, "Did you see him? No, did you see that totem? "
The so-called him was the totem with a human face and snake body. Queen Medusa called him him at first, but then she immediately denied it because the "him" in her mouth might always be that person, Crown Prince Jiang Xie, her lover, and her enemy.
Shen Lang said, "I saw him. He was domineering."
Queen Medusa said, "Did you try to look him in the eye?"
Shen Lang shook his head and said, "That was a pretense. I didn't really look him in the eye."
Queen Medusa said, "He is a competent totem."
This sentence also contained a lot of information. In other words, she felt that she was not a competent totem.
"Shen Lang, what do you think a god should do?" Queen Medusa asked.
Shen Lang said, "Great love, but ruthless! Don't respond to the prayers of any believer, but protect the entire race. "
Queen Medusa said, "As a god, you should stay on the platform forever, become a statue, and never go down the altar. Once you go down, your invincible body will be destroyed. Even if you are cursed, even if you are despised, don't go down the altar. "
Shen Lang felt that this sentence made sense, but he couldn't understand it.
"I couldn't bear to see the Medusa Empire fall forever, so I went down the altar and changed from a totem to an empress." Queen Medusa said, "Then, she was toyed with by a human. Not only did she offer her body and mind, but she also offered everything she had. In the end, she was turned into a statue again, a broken statue."
She was talking about Jiang Xie.
After a long while, Queen Medusa said, "Shen Lang, back then, Jiang Xie paid a lot in order to obtain everything I have. It was a strategic price. Now you want me to sacrifice my soul? How much do you want to pay? How do you intend to persuade me with your glib tongue? "
How could he convince Queen Medusa?
There are many reasons. For example, I can help you take revenge and eliminate Jiang Li (Jiang Xie). Another example is that I can protect the Lost Empire and let it continue to exist.
But there was no need to say these reasons. Did Queen Medusa not know?
After thinking for a full minute, Shen Lang said, "I don't know how to convince you."
Queen Medusa said, "You can't say it and let others sacrifice for you, right?"
"Yes," Shen Lang said.
Queen Medusa sneered, "Then should I say that you still have some shame?"
Shen Lang said nothing.
Queen Medusa said, "What kind of person do you think he is?"
The "him" she was referring to was naturally Jiang Xie, or Jiang Li.
Shen Lang said, "I can't comment."
Queen Medusa said, "You must comment."
Shen Lang said, "I only have one goal, and that is to have no enmity with the world. So, he is my only remaining enemy. No matter what, wait until I eliminate him."
This sentence didn't seem to make any comments about Jiang Li, but it was already an evaluation.
Up until now, Shen Lang's direct goal was to defeat Jiang Li. As for saving the world, that was his secondary goal. So, he couldn't righteously ask others to sacrifice for him. He was a selfish person.
But Jiang Li's entire body, mind, and soul were to save human civilization. For this goal, he could sacrifice everything, regardless of the price. So, he was an absolutely selfless person.
It was just that he was so extreme that it made people feel terrified and cold.
"He is a very amazing person," Queen Medusa said. Queen Medusa said, "Everything he did was to achieve his lofty ideals, including deceiving me and destroying me. So, I hate him, but I still love him. "
"As I said, as a totem, you should always stay on the divine position, no matter the reason. Even if the world is destroyed, you shouldn't come down." Queen Medusa said, "Because once you come down, you will betray yourself. You will destroy yourself. So, in a sense, everything that happened to me is my own fault. Be it a person or anything else, the most difficult thing was to be consistent from start to finish. I didn't do it, but Jiang Xie did. "
Was she talking about maintaining one's character?
"The most shameful thing for a person is not to betray others, but to betray themselves," Queen Medusa said. "So, to a certain extent, Jiang Xie is not shameful, but I am."
These words made Shen Lang think a lot.
Yes, the most difficult thing for a person was to be consistent.
If a person was very hypocritical, they would always be pretending. But if they could pretend for a lifetime, even at the moment they entered the coffin, they would still be pretending. That would not be pretending, that would be eternal.
"You are also not bad." Queen Medusa said, "You are also consistent, from the beginning to the end, you have not been affected by others. Whether it is a little son-in-law or becoming the Emperor of the East, you have never changed. You are indeed his son. "
Shen Lang continued to be silent.
Queen Medusa said, "You want me to sacrifice my soul to fill that well, so that you can complete the high-level dragon enlightenment?"
"Yes," Shen Lang replied. He still didn't seem to be in the right.
Queen Medusa said, "Many people have sacrificed themselves for you, because they feel that they have an obligation, because they chose you. And I … do not have this obligation. "
Shen Lang was silent.
Queen Medusa said, "Maybe you want to say that you can help me take revenge and destroy Jiang Xie. But … I have already said that my tragedy is my own fault. He has never changed. I hate him, but I still love him. I was deceived by him because of my stupidity, not his shamelessness. "
Huh?! Shen Lang had nothing to say.
Queen Medusa said, "Maybe you want to say that you can save the Lost Empire. But I have also said that a long time ago, I was just like the Skywatch Totem, just a totem, a sculpture. I should not have walked down the altar. I once gave everything for Jiang Xie, but at least I still have my soul. Now I have to sacrifice the last of my soul for you. Why? If the Lost Empire is destined to perish, then … let it perish. It was because I couldn't bear to see it perish that I stepped down from the altar and turned from a totem into an empress, bringing the fragmented Lost Empire together once again. "
Shen Lang remembered, in the underwater tomb of the Naru, the souls of the little Medusas said that the once Lost Empire was fragmented. Several Medusas fought for the throne, and in the end, they were invaded by the Eastern Human Empire. They were in a precarious situation and were about to be completely destroyed. The Medusas would even become the playthings of humans.
Later, Queen Medusa descended and became extremely powerful. She unified the entire Lost Empire and made the entire Lost Empire extremely powerful. In the end, she defeated the ancient Eastern Empire.
"If the heavens want the Lost Empire to perish, then so be it. We can't go against the heavens." Queen Medusa said, "Don't you think so? At least that's what the Skywatch Totem thinks. So even if your Mojing is destroyed, it will not walk down the altar and fight for the last city-state. "
Shen Lang continued to be silent.
Queen Medusa was also silent.
"Shen Lang, countless people have sacrificed themselves for you, right?" Queen Medusa asked again.
"Yes." Shen Lang said.
Queen Medusa said, "You said that your first goal is to destroy Jiang Li and complete your revenge. So this is your selfishness, right? Even if you save the world, it is just a subsidiary. So what reason do you have for people to sacrifice themselves for you? "
"No." Shen Lang said.
Queen Medusa said, "Then how are you going to repay these lives that you owe?"
Shen Lang was silent for a long time. "This is not an answer I can give now. Perhaps when I complete the high-level dragon enlightenment and understand life and death, I will have an answer."
Queen Medusa said, "Amazing, amazing. You actually want to save all those who sacrificed themselves. You think that high-level dragon enlightenment is to overturn life and death, enter hell, grasp the energy of death, and then reverse life and death? "
Shen Lang said, "Why? Can't you do it? "
Queen Medusa said, "Of course not. Life and death cannot be reversed. Jiang Li seems to have reversed life and death, but he only found a gray area between life and death and wandered in it. "
Shen Lang said, "Your Majesty, you keep saying that you brought your tragedy upon yourself, but you still hate Jiang Xie. You keep saying that you don't want revenge, but you still want revenge and want to destroy him. You keep saying that since the heavens want the Lost Empire to perish, you will not go against the heavens. But … you still can't watch as the Lost Empire perishes. You still can't watch as your people perish. Even if you are an immortal, once your mortal heart is moved, your golden body will be completely broken and you will never be able to go back. You used to be a totem, but after you step down from the altar, you can never go back. "
This time, it was Queen Medusa's turn to be silent.
"Well said, well said." Queen Medusa said, "The moment I stepped down from the totem position, I could never go back. But you also know that I'm guarding the last ruins of the Medusa Empire. Once I sacrifice myself, the entire energy shield will collapse. The hundreds of thousands of descendants of my Lost Empire will no longer have a place to hide. Does that mean that my Lost Empire will perish? "
Obsession, a true obsession.
Maintaining the inheritance of the Lost Empire was Queen Medusa's greatest obsession.
Shen Lang said, "Yes, you are maintaining the last energy shield of the ruins, the last chance of survival. Once you sacrifice yourself, the last shelter of the Lost Empire will be gone. I … plan to take all these sea monsters back to the sea. Once I complete the Advanced Dragon Enlightenment and save the Mojing City, I plan to attack the Jiang Li Empire, reclaim the Devil's Triangle, reclaim the Eastern Empire, and then go to the North Pole to fight Jiang Li. "
"Crazy, crazy to the point of absurdity and stupidity." Queen Medusa said, "Jiang Li controls the power of the entire world. You want to fight him after completing the Advanced Dragon Enlightenment?"
"Yes." Shen Lang said, "Although my power is much weaker than his, at least in terms of energy level, I am on par with him."
Queen Medusa said, "On top of the Advanced Dragon Enlightenment, there is the Ultimate Dragon Enlightenment. Don't you want to fight Jiang Li after comprehending this level?"
"I can't wait …" Shen Lang said, "My wife told me that she can't wait another day. She regrets that I have to bear so much. Why can't we be an ordinary rich couple? That way, even if the world is destroyed, we would still have a few good years. And the Ultimate Dragon Enlightenment? Haha … hehe … "
According to Shen Lang's understanding, the Ultimate Dragon Enlightenment should be able to transcend time and space.
Jiang Li's teacher, the Chaos Prophet, completed the Advanced Dragon Enlightenment countless years ago. After that, he spent countless years trying to complete the Ultimate Dragon Enlightenment.
In the end, he was turned into a fossil by Jiang Li and imprisoned in Prison Number Five.
Then … he disappeared without a trace, releasing the other prisoners along the way.
Did he complete the Ultimate Dragon Enlightenment?
No idea!
But according to the Queen of Darkness's guess, the Chaos Prophet completed the Ultimate Dragon Enlightenment and chose Shen Lang to save the world.
Of course, this was just a guess. As for the truth? Who knew?
Queen Medusa said, "Shen Lang, do you know what will happen if we look at each other now?"
Shen Lang said, "I don't know."
Queen Medusa said, "You will turn into a fossil, and it is irreversible. Unlike the time when you were in Mo Jing, you were just acting. "
In Mojing, in order to lure the snake out of its hole and find the imposter, Shen Lang put on a show of looking at the Skygazer Totem? He even pretended to turn into a fossil.
"Jiang Xie once lied to me. After taking everything from me, he turned me into a fossil." Queen Medusa said, "If you want my soul to be sacrificed now, then you should sacrifice yourself first. How about that? Everything has a price. You can't ask me to sacrifice myself for no reason, right? "
Shen Lang was silent for a moment. "Okay, I agree."
Queen Medusa said, "You should think about it. This may be a conspiracy of mine. After I turn you into a fossil, perhaps I'll be free. I'll replace you in that well and complete the Advanced Dragon Enlightenment. Then, I'll take revenge on Jiang Xie myself. After all, no one wants to put their fate in someone else's hands. "
Shen Lang said, "I agree."
Queen Medusa said, "Jiang Xie once deceived my body and mind. You are his descendant, and you are also a human. Then I will deceive a human. Once you become a fossil, you will be a fossil forever. Your destruction in exchange for my freedom. These are all possible. Do you still want to take the risk? "
Shen Lang still said, "I agree!"
Empress Medusa said, "Alright, then go! Fly to the highest point and look into my eyes. "
"Okay." Shen Lang said.
Then, Shen Lang left the control center of the ice pyramid and walked out!
At this time, the Lost Demonic Mother and hundreds of thousands of sea monsters were still surrounding the pyramid, and all eyes were fixed on Shen Lang.
Shen Lang opened his arms, and his whole body slowly floated up, higher and higher.
He floated to the top of the pyramid, and then floated to the level of the eyes of Queen Medusa.
He kept his eyes closed, because once he opened his eyes, he would look into Queen Medusa's eyes.
What would be the consequences if they looked into each other's eyes?
If she said it, it might be a conspiracy.
A conspiracy to let Queen Medusa free.
Shen Lang had completed the Ultimate Dragon Enlightenment, and he was the Ancient Wisdom King. The Mother of Dragons used all her efforts to upgrade the perfect body, so he could barely become Queen Medusa and transfer the curse?
All of this was unknown.
Perhaps, Queen Medusa just wanted to test people's hearts.
Back then, she was deceived by Crown Prince Jiang Xie and gave everything she had.
And now Shen Lang wanted her to sacrifice herself, so she wanted to use the most decisive means to test Shen Lang's heart?
He didn't know. He didn't know anything.
What would happen if Shen Lang looked into her eyes? No one knew.
Would it really be like what she said, that Shen Lang would turn into a fossil, and she would be free and replace Shen Lang to complete the Ultimate Dragon Enlightenment? Both the Ancient Wisdom King and the Mother of Dragons had sacrificed their souls and themselves to pave the way for everything.
This powerful temptation, this temptation to be on an equal footing with Jiang Li, would Queen Medusa be able to resist it?
Would she be able to resist the hope of personal revenge?
These thoughts surged and flashed in Shen Lang's mind.
He took a deep breath and threw away all the distracting thoughts.
Shen Lang opened his eyes and officially looked into Queen Medusa's eyes!
There was no buffer!
The eyes of Queen Medusa suddenly lit up, and in an instant, endless energy drilled into Shen Lang's eyes.
God's Gaze!
Back then, Crown Prince Jiang Xie tried every means to deceive Queen Medusa.
In an instant …
Shen Lang turned into a fossil.
He did not turn into a stone inch by inch, but in an instant!
Of course, if this instant was slowed down by a thousand times, one could still see that Shen Lang's eyes, then his face, and finally his entire body, all turned into a fossil.
Everything was just as Queen Medusa had said.
There was no room for negotiation. Shen Lang froze just like that.
Not only did his body turn into a fossil, but his entire spirit instantly stopped.
At the same time, Queen Medusa's statue began to shatter, turning into powder inch by inch. Then, a complete Queen Medusa, a nimble Queen Medusa walked out and slowly floated back to the ground.
Then …
The last refuge of the lost empire began to collapse.
The energy shield disappeared.
The ruins of the ancient Medusa Empire began to lose its protection.
All of the magnificent ice buildings began to collapse.
A city of 30,000 square kilometers, countless ice castles were completely shattered.
In a short moment, the entire city was turned into ashes.
In the end, the huge ice pyramid began to collapse.
In less than five minutes, the last refuge of the Medusa Empire, the last home of hundreds of thousands of sea monsters, was completely erased from this world.
The Lost Demon Mother and the hundreds of thousands of sea monsters were completely stunned when they saw this scene.
At any time before, the Lost Demon Mother had never shown her true face in front of Shen Lang. She was either a beautiful body condensed from seawater or ice and snow. But without exception, she was a beautiful woman.
And now, she finally revealed her true face.
She … was really a very ugly sea monster.
What did she look like?
A mermaid?
But it was not a mermaid in movies and TV shows, but a real mermaid. She was very ugly and weird, with a little human characteristics, but she did not have a human face at all, nor did she have a human face and a fish body. In short, it was strange.
At this time, tears gushed out of her eyes. She looked at Shen Lang, who had turned into a fossil, and then looked at Queen Medusa.
Her world was completely turned upside down.
At this moment, she did not even know who to lean towards.
Empress Medusa was her eternal spiritual pillar, her idol, and her Empress.
But Shen Lang …
Now, Queen Medusa turned Shen Lang into a fossil, but she was free and restored her original body.
Why did this happen?
If this was the only way to pass on the Lost Empire, wouldn't it be better not to have it?
"Are you disappointed?" Queen Medusa said, "The Lost Demon Mother?"
The Lost Demon Mother was silent.
What should she do next? What should she do with hundreds of thousands of sea monsters?
If her queen disappointed her, was there any need for the Lost Empire to exist? What was the point of trying her best to maintain the Empire's inheritance?
Queen Medusa said, "Take the last group of the Lost Empire back to the Devil Triangle. Don't worry, I will not let you down, and I will not let you down. "
The Lost Demon Mother looked at Shen Lang, who had turned into a fossil again.
Queen Medusa said, "Is he so charming? So many races are willing to die for him? "
"Go, go!"
"Remember my words, I will not let you down."
The Lost Demon Mother took a deep look at Queen Medusa, then left with the surviving hundreds of thousands of sea monsters.
They left the South Pole and headed north!
Twenty-nine years ago, she obeyed Shen Lang's order and took millions of sea monsters south to the South Pole and found the last shelter, but there were still hundreds of thousands of them left.
Now, she obeyed Queen Medusa's order and returned to the Devil Triangle.
This time, how many sea monsters would be left?
Hundreds of thousands of sea monsters quietly headed north, and in the blink of an eye, they disappeared into the snowy horizon.
Along the way, many sea monsters had already fallen to the ground and were frozen in the snow.
Queen Medusa looked at the desolate sea monsters and said to herself, "Is this my Lost Empire? Is this the Lost Empire that I have protected and passed on? "
"Yes, no matter what it has become. It is still my Lost Empire! "
At this time, Shen Lang's fossil statue suddenly fell from the air.
Bang!
A loud noise almost smashed through hundreds of meters of ice.
Queen Medusa gently waved her hand, and Shen Lang's fossil statue slowly flew up and floated in front of her.
There was no reaction. There was no mental fluctuation.
"You are so naive," Queen Medusa said, "Shen Lang, you are so naive. How are you going to fight against Jiang Xie? Do you really think you can destroy him like this? You are not naive, but stupid. "
Then, Queen Medusa flew in the direction of the Great Tribulation Temple ruins.
Shen Lang's statue was clamped under her waist, motionless.
… …
A few days later!
The lively Queen Medusa brought Shen Lang's fossil statue to the ruins of the ancient Great Tribulation Temple and arrived in front of the dry well.
Inside, there was still two-thirds of the Soul Water.
"This is so tempting. The soul of the Ancient Wisdom King, the Mother of Dragons!"
"When I changed from the totem to the real body, I was already weakened once. This time, I changed from a statue to a real body and became weaker again. "
"Once I complete the Advanced Dragon Enlightenment, I can return to my peak strength. I can personally revive the Lost Empire, and I can personally find Jiang Xie for revenge. "
"This is truly tempting! There's an endless amount of power within this well!"
"The humans lied to me, so I will lie back to the humans. Isn't that normal?"
"I am no longer a totem. I am just a weak Queen Medusa. I am just an idiot who was deceived by the humans and gave up everything."
"The humans harmed me, so I will take revenge on them!"
Queen Medusa continued to mutter to herself.
The Great Tribulation Temple ruins were still dead silent.
"I will not be stupid anymore. I once lost everything because of love."
"Don't tell me that I'll sacrifice my soul for those illusory things? What a joke. "
Queen Medusa looked at Shen Lang's fossil statue again.
"Shen Lang, you are too naive and stupid." Queen Medusa said sarcastically, "But … your naivety and stupidity … have once again conquered my heart. I'm actually tempted to sacrifice myself to fulfill your mission?"
"No, no, I can't do that."
"I finally regained my freedom. I finally have the chance to grasp the Advanced Dragon Enlightenment. I can't give it up."
"I will personally take revenge on Jiang Xie. I will personally protect my Lost Empire!"
"Forget it, forget it. I have lost to your naivety."
"So I am even more naive and stupid than you. No wonder I was deceived by Jiang Xie."
"Shen Lang, I will fulfill your wish."
After muttering to herself, Queen Medusa dived into the Well of Souls and completely sacrificed her soul.
She was right. A naive person would always be naive. Even if she was seen as stupid, even if she was deceived once, when her heart was truly moved, she would still give up everything.
Instantly!
Queen Medusa's peerless face and body turned into ashes inch by inch, turning into the Soul Water within.
The well continued to rise and rise!
It was finally full!
As expected, it needed Queen Medusa's soul as a sacrifice to fill it up.
In the next second!
It was as if a gust of wind blew past.
Shen Lang's fossil statue that stood at the mouth of the well suddenly fell down and smashed into the Well of Souls!
… …
