Chapter 1081 - 634: [Immortal Body]

On the small island of the Pearl Sea,

O’Neill looked at Lis, his expression full of astonishment.

He didn’t expect Lis to directly demand the totem spirit.

Although this totem spirit technically belongs to the Treasure Pearl Merfolk Tribe, it has been O’Neill who has been carefully nurturing it over the years. The totem spirit only broke through to the legendary rank in his hands.

Therefore, it can be said that half of O’Neill’s power lies in the totem spirit before him.

Letting go of the totem spirit would be more painful for O’Neill than cutting his own flesh.

Previously, when Lis asked about Matteo, O’Neill had thought about whether Lis would be interested in the totem spirit.

But after thinking about it, O’Neill believed Lis wouldn’t have such intentions.

After all, he could sense that Klaus was still quite young, yet he possessed such formidable strength with unlimited potential for the future.

At this time, he shouldn’t have the idea of transforming into a totem spirit, because honestly doing so would make it quite difficult to continue enhancing his strength in the future.

)

For young legends, the path to divinity is still their first choice.

"What, unwilling?"

Lis looked at the hesitant O’Neill, grinning widely. However, in O’Neill’s eyes, that smile seemed quite frightening, full of an implied threat.

"You’re a legendary warrior, what do you want a totem spirit for?"

O’Neill was somewhat unwilling, but unable to defeat Lis, he could only be forced to compromise.

"Interested. I want to study it."

Lis impatiently waved his hand and said to O’Neill,

"You already know I am a warrior and won’t actually take your totem spirit, so what are you worried about?"

"... Alright."

O’Neill, somewhat helpless, could only control the twelve coral columns, letting them fall by Lis’s side and handing over control to him under Lis’s threats.

Although what Lis said was true, there was still something about Klaus in front of him that felt strange and unpredictable.

It seemed like the other party was capable of doing anything.

So be it~

O’Neill’s heart bled, but he could only comfort himself.

Whether he had the totem spirit or not, he couldn’t defeat Lis, so it seemed irrelevant.

Anyway, in the Fishman Tribe, besides Klaus, there was certainly no one else who could be his opponent.

Seeing O’Neill preparing to leave, Lis spoke up:

"By the way, I plan to stay with the Pearl Clan for a while now. I suppose you won’t mind?"

"At that time, I want half of the tribe’s power of faith!"

"You... fine."

O’Neill’s anger flared upon hearing Lis’s demand, but then he looked at the long knife in Lis’s hand, and his rage vanished completely.

Having been soundly defeated just now, and considering how young the other was, Lis’s rate of strength increase would certainly be fast, meaning he wouldn’t have a chance to resist for quite a while in the future.

If the other is willing, the Treasure Pearl Sea Fishman United Tribe would certainly not refuse the demands.

After all, having a legendary strongman of the same species join any tribe would never be rejected.

Naturally, Lis would become the tribe’s mightiest fighter.

The Solo Fishman Tribe is different from the Human Kingdom, where the strongest possesses the greatest authority; this is a rule that the tribe has followed for thousands of years.

Rather than saying that Klaus is consulting with him, it’s more like he’s informing him of this matter.

For the Solo Fishman Tribe in Treasure Pearl, because of the existence of the Ocean Goddess Church, half of the power of faith shares belonged to the Church of the Ocean Goddess.

Other legends wanting to obtain faith power could only cultivate believers themselves to gather it.

But for the fishmen, their faith was more due to the identity of strongmen of the same species.

In other words, no matter who the faith target is, as long as it’s a Fishman Legend, it can generally be achieved with tribal guidance.

The faith power originally in the fishman tribe was used by O’Neill and Matteo to nurture the totem spirit, but now Klaus wants half, so O’Neill wouldn’t get any share.

How am I supposed to nurture the totem spirit then?

Thinking of this, O’Neill paused, then felt even more dejected.

Yes, and now the totem spirit has been snatched by Klaus, why would he even need faith power?

Anyway, the path to divinity is a dead end for him.

Thinking of this, O’Neill felt even more disheartened and left here with no thrill.

Fine, since it’s already like this, let nature take its course!

O’Neill thought to himself, recalling when Matteo died trying to replace the totem spirit, he already had a sense of dread.

Even if Klaus hadn’t arrived, he might not have continued trying.

Moreover, having a strongman like Klaus join the Solo Fishman Tribe is actually good news.

Although the Solo Fishman Tribe is strong, in the vast ocean there is no counting strongmen.

Not to mention, O’Neill already heard of a new legend appearing at Danerluo Port of Treasure Pearl, someone who even controls a floating city.

A legendary strongman like this isn’t something the Solo Fishman Tribe could withstand.

Having Klaus around is good, if that Legendary Mage attempts to conquer the Pearl Sea, let him pave the way.

With a little mental consolation, O’Neill felt a bit relieved as he headed towards the direction of the Coral Clan.

...

This time, Lis did not stop him.

In this battle, Lis not only confirmed the other hadn’t seen through his identity but also discovered an alternative path through the totem spirit, which was a significant gain.

But upon thinking, it’s understandable as Lis specifically created an arcane magic to conceal his aura to fool the Marine Goddess Church and Fishman Legends. Combined with the legendary secret treasure [Transformer’s Mask], he successfully deceived O’Neill.
