My sister is the daughter of destiny
Chapter 284: The Weird Soul-Swallowing Clam
The endorsement of the Military Alliance is truly a huge opportunity for a low-ranking holy place like the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect.
Everyone knew that this was probably the most likely chance for the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect to turn things around in thousands of years.
If no changes are made, once the Sect Leader She Qianshan passes away, or accidentally dies on the battlefield, the Wanshou Sect will be removed from the list of holy places, and it will be difficult for the sect to make any progress from then on.
Although their research will be shared with the Military Alliance from now on, for the Military Alliance, a declining school like the Beast Taming School is not worth their attention at all. Only the research knowledge on monsters and exotic beasts is qualified to be included in the Military Alliance.
Of course, if future research can really make the beast taming school improve, the Military Alliance will surely not hesitate to promote this method, and this is exactly what the people of the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect think.
The beast taming school has really been in decline for too long.
Therefore, almost in an instant, the leader of the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect and the two elders figured out the key and agreed to it eagerly.
Everyone looked at the thin middle-aged man.
The evergreen of all beasts is Chen Qingsong.
Everyone was obviously curious about why his master and senior sister had so tacitly pushed the matter to him.
However, since this kind of thing involves other people's privacy, no one asked any more questions.
Li Yanwu led everyone out of the research institute area and came to the chaotic spiritual energy area in the secret realm. There was spiritual energy flowing around him, isolating the chaotic and mixed spiritual energy three feet away from everyone.
The chaotic spiritual energy in the secret realm had been intentionally filled, and now its concentration was no less than that in the depths of the battlefield. Several people from the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect nodded slightly, quite satisfied with this environment.
Li Yanwu took out the spirit beast bag and took out tens of thousands of ice lumps from it. So many spirit-swallowing clam eggs were neatly arranged in the air, which looked quite beautiful.
Of course, the toad next to the Soul-Devouring Clam eggs is a pure destroyer of beauty.
It's incredibly ugly.
The moment she saw this thing, Xiaoxue quietly took a half step back and hid half of her body behind Lu Ningfeng.
The butterfly fairy dancing with light butterflies frowned slightly, took slight steps, and protected her junior brother Chen Qingsong in front of her.
The adorable little girl with twin ponytails, Nangong Xingyue, didn't seem to care much, but when she saw the reactions of Lu Ningxue and Wu Qingdie, her little brain started working quickly, and she took a step back, imitating Lu Ningxue and hiding behind Ning Baichi.
"Brother, come on, it's up to you."
Wu Qingdie patted Chen Qingsong's shoulder with her jade hand and encouraged him softly.
Chen Qingsong rolled his dead eyes, but did not refuse and took a few steps forward.
"You can now be freed from your restraints."
Upon hearing this, Xiaoxue waved her hand gently, and the ice that was freezing the Soul-Swallowing Clam and tens of thousands of eggs melted quietly.
As soon as the Soul-Swallowing Clam escaped, it immediately opened its mouth to swallow the chaotic spiritual energy, and its big tongue suddenly rolled towards the Soul-Swallowing Clam eggs on the other side.
However, Xiaoxue of Daoyuan Realm was enough to easily suppress it and make it unable to move, not to mention the many Venerable Saints and even Emperor Realm powerhouses here.
Chen Qingsong just snorted lightly, and the Soul-Swallowing Clam became unable to move. Then Chen Qingsong began to carefully check the condition of the Soul-Swallowing Clam eggs.
"This Soul-Devouring Clam seems to be using its eggs as a kind of emergency reserve of spiritual energy? Once there is danger, it will immediately swallow them up?" Lu Ningfeng asked curiously.
Previously, when they appeared on the battlefield, the Soul-Devouring Clam had swallowed hundreds of eggs, and its breath quickly recovered. Now it also wants to swallow its own eggs.
"Emergency spiritual energy reserve? Mr. Lu's description is very appropriate, but there are some fallacies. Its eggs are not emergency reserves, but reserves for promotion," She Qianshan stroked his long beard, gave Lu Ningfeng a friendly smile, and explained patiently.
"Promotion rations?"
Everyone looked at She Qianshan with some curiosity. Even veteran Saint Realm and Emperor Realm powerhouses like Li Yanwu and Lu Yan had never heard of such a statement.
She Qianshan suddenly felt somewhat pleased with himself. After all, his sect's research was not in vain. In order to gain strong support from the Military Alliance, he began to explain in detail.
"The birth of the Soul Swallowing Clam is quite rare. Over the years of alien invasions, our Ten Thousand Beast Sect has only recorded a handful of them. It is really lucky for Master Lu and Miss Su to be able to see the birth of it and capture it."
She Qianshan first praised them. Given the status and position of Lu Ningfeng and his wife, he, a powerful saint, did not feel embarrassed to curry favor with them in person.
"Not all Soul Swallowing Clams can reproduce. Only the most fully evolved Soul Swallowing Clams can reproduce. These Soul Swallowing Clams have one characteristic, which is that their cultivation has reached the state of perfection of the intermediate level."
"The population level of the Soul-Swallowing Clams can only be considered middle-level among the middle-level soldiers. If you want to break through to the perfect level, you must have some great opportunities."
"All living beings have the desire to break through the boundaries, and the same is true for aliens. The racial hierarchy of aliens is strict. If you want to break through the boundaries, you need some extraordinary means."
"For example, some of the king-level alien races in the extraterritorial battlefield are usually the masters of a nest. They have unparalleled fertility and use their population to help themselves break through layers of boundaries. After they break through the boundaries, the innate race limit of the people they give birth to will also be higher."
"Although the Soul Swallowing Clam also reproduces in large numbers, it takes a different approach. Soul Swallowing Clams are hermaphrodites. Once they reach their limit, they will begin to retreat and frantically accumulate spiritual energy while becoming pregnant."
"After the Soul-Swallowing Clam has finished giving birth, all its offspring will hatch within a day. Similar to the toads in our Heavenly Spirit Realm, the Soul-Swallowing Clam's larvae are also tadpoles, so they can be called Soul-Swallowing Tadpoles."
"However, few people have seen Soul Devouring Tadpoles. That's because after they hatch, they can evolve into small Soul Devouring Clams within a day, and possess the status of a servant-level alien race."
"And at this stage, it is a feast for the big swallowing clams and a nightmare for the small swallowing clams. The big swallowing clams will prey on the small swallowing clams, and the small swallowing clams can only flee for their lives. They are the food for the big swallowing clams to advance."
"This step is not only the promotion of the Soul Swallowing Clam, but also the means of reproduction for this population. The Great Soul Swallowing Clam will consciously retain about 1% of the lucky ones. Usually, after three to five such promotion ceremonies, the Soul Swallowing Clam can break through to the realm of the superior soldier."
She Qianshan's vivid explanation also left everyone present confused.
There is actually such a weird promotion mode?
"After the Soul-Swallowing Clam breaks through to the upper-class soldier, won't the upper limit of the group increase? If it reproduces again when it is at the upper-class soldier, won't its offspring be born to be able to reach the upper-class soldier level?"
Lu Ningfeng pondered for a moment and asked the question.
"Haha, Master Lu is really smart. He thought of this so quickly. However, this is not the case. The promotion of the Soul-Swallowing Clam will not lead to an increase in the upper limit of the clan. There seems to be some kind of restriction that limits the Soul-Swallowing Clam to only be able to climb up from the bottom."
She Qianshan shook his head slightly.
"However, we also have some guesses. The reproduction model of the Soul-Swallowing Clam should have originated from an ancient being. The so-called promotion, in our opinion, is more like a purification of blood. By giving birth to offspring, the clam devours and refines the offspring's spiritual energy and blood, turning it into food for promotion."
"And the foundation of all Soul-Swallowing Clam larvae should have been limited to the level of medium-level soldiers by that ancient being."
She Qianshan's story is convincing enough.
Especially for a strong man like Li Yanwu, from his perspective, this is most likely the answer.
Lu Ningfeng looked at She Qianshan and the others curiously. After thinking for a moment, he suddenly fixed his eyes on She Qianshan.
As a saint, She Qianshan has a keen sense and had already noticed Lu Ningfeng's gaze.
"Mr. Lu, do you still have questions? Just ask. I will answer all your questions."
She Qianshan laughed, his old face was full of wrinkles, but the smile was very sincere.
"Mr. She seems to know a lot about alien races. That's amazing."
Lu Ningfeng's words did not have any other meaning, they were purely compliments. In his opinion, the Tianlan Military Alliance's research on alien races has always been about how to kill them, or how to kill them as quickly as possible.
The sudden appearance of a sect that conducts research on the reproduction, living habits, etc. of other races is really an eye-opener.
"Haha, this... After all, our Wanshou Sect is good at dealing with monsters and exotic beasts. In our eyes, many alien races are monsters from another world. If we study them more, we may be able to draw inferences from one instance to another."
She Qianshan was used to being cautious in his words and actions, even when Li Yanwu said that if today's event was feasible, the Military Alliance could endorse their sect.
But before getting a definite answer, he still left a lot of room for maneuver in his words.
"I see," Lu Ningfeng nodded to show that he understood, and then asked casually, "I wonder if you are interested in conducting in-depth research on alien races? Not just superficial habit investigations, but also dissections to gain an in-depth understanding of the structure and bloodline of alien races."
Lu Ningfeng smiled and threw out a bait.
Although only the Soul-Swallowing Clams are helpful in creating the Star-Moon Aura Box at the moment, who can guarantee that only the Soul-Swallowing Clams can be useful?
Now that there is a case like the Soul-Swallowing Clam, Lu Ningfeng feels that maybe after he has a thorough understanding of other alien races, he might be able to come up with some kind of black technology.
This is a question worth thinking about, but for obvious reasons, although he is itching to do it, he cannot personally dissect the alien species to gain a deeper understanding, and his knowledge reserves are not enough to support him in playing with these.
The emergence of such a special sect at this moment may be a point worthy of investment. It is no exaggeration to say that it is like someone giving you a pillow when you are sleepy.
However, Lu Ningfeng didn't know that the Wanshou Sect had already been doing research in this area, and they were even trying to fuse the blood of monsters and other races, but they were just doing it secretly.
Therefore, when he asked this, She Qianshan's heart skipped a beat.
