Chapter 494: Chapter 34
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
The Queen of Water Element had said so many things . First, she introduced her own origins, and then she told Sui Xiong the secrets of the Rulers of Four Elements and the four greater Divine Powers . She did all those things for her final question .
You clearly come from the ocean, and you’re obviously a jellyfish . However, how can you get rid of your own nature, and why are you not affected by your own attributes?
This question was really difficult for Sui Xiong to answer .
Normally, the power of any creature in the water would inevitably be affected by the attribute of water . There were two most typical examples—the Goddess of Ocean and the Queen of Water Elements . These two were believed to be the most powerful gods of the aquatic kind in this world . Of course, they could exert the power of other attributes, but they could never use them as naturally as they used water, nor as strongly .
Usually, they would use different strengths depending on the needs of the situations . At the crucial moment, their foundation was eventually water .
It was different for Sui Xiong . His appearance was a jellyfish, but in fact, he had no relationship with a jellyfish . Of course, he could exert some skills of a jellyfish, such as poison stings . That was the unique skill of a jellyfish . However, what kind of attributes should a jellyfish have? What was the nature of the soul of a jellyfish? Those had nothing to do with him .
After all, his soul was not a jellyfish’s soul, but a human’s soul from a different world .
Hearing the inquiry of the Queen of Water Element, Sui Xiong was silent .
The Queen of Water Element wasn’t in a hurry . She sat there quietly, waiting for his reply .
Time was not a problem for those two, especially for the Queen of Water Element . She could even be regarded as being born before the world was born . For that answer, she could wait as long as she liked . If she had to wait until another world was created, she could wait .

Could Sui Xiong make her wait until another world was created?
Obviously not! He wasn’t that shameless! However, he really didn’t want to tell her his own origin .
Everyone had their own secrets and somethings they didn’t want to tell others . Maybe some people were willing to use their own secrets to exchange for other people’s secrets, but it didn’t mean that others were willing, too .
For Sui Xiong, of course, he was interested in the things that the Queen of Water Element had told him . He was willing to pay a price for knowing those secrets, but that didn’t include his origin!
He was a space traveler, and he couldn’t tell this secret to anyone!
Sometimes, he thought that time travel was actually not so secretive . His own origin was not strange, so it didn’t have to be a secret .
However, he just didn’t want to tell others!
For example, a person liked all kinds of fruits except apples . He knew that apples were nutritious and good for his health, but he just didn’t like apples . He didn’t want to eat them .
If he was really hungry, he would eat apples, because if he didn’t eat apples, he would starve to death . Otherwise, he wouldn’t look at apples .
When Sui Xiong had been in college, the condition of his classmate had been more serious .
That classmate believed in Buddha, so he didn’t eat meat, such as pork, mutton, and beef . He didn’t eat any kind of meat .
As a senior intellectual, his fellow classmate naturally knew that being vegetarian wasn’t necessary for Buddhists . In fact, one should not eat onions, garlic, and coriander . However, his classmate just didn’t eat meat . That was the habit he had developed from his childhood, so he couldn’t force himself .
One time that classmate had fallen in love, and his girlfriend was a female cook whose family members were all cooks . She had a faithful attachment to eating meat . On the issue of love, a man naturally had to compromise . In desperation, that classmate had eaten a piece of meat once . After returning to the dormitory, he had vomited several times . Finally, he had burst into tears and had said that although the girl was good, he couldn’t be in her league .

There were some more extreme examples . Indians had had an uprising for butter, and Arabs had fought with others for the sake of pork . Therefore, if some people didn’t eat something, they just couldn’t eat it . Alas, nothing could help .
Sui Xiong didn’t want to tell others his own origin for the same reason .
So he was silent for a long time, and he finally sighed deeply .
“Sorry, I can’t tell you,” he said . “I am really sorry, but… I can’t tell you the reason why my strength is not affected by water although I’m a jellyfish . ”
The Queen of Water Element sighed deeply . The result was not beyond her estimation .
The reason why the Void Mask was not affected by its own race was a great secret . It could be counted as the foundation of his life . Once this secret was known by others, it would be equivalent to giving someone a blade that could kill him . In any case, he wouldn’t tell her this secret .
She could judge his feeling on her own . If she were him, she wouldn’t tell others such a secret .
Suppose that I had such a secret…
“So, can you give me a hint?” she asked .
This requirement was a step back . Sui Xiong couldn’t refuse her . After thinking for a long time, Sui Xiong said slowly, “Have you ever lived by the sea?”
“Of course,” the Queen of Water Element said with a smile . “I have sent my avatars to live for a while in most of the terrains in this world . Don’t mention the seaside, they even lived in lava . ”
Sui Xiong secretly sighed . He said, “There is a kind of small crabs on the beach . Their carapace is not strong enough, so they often look for some big conchs . They kill the conchs and drill into the conch shells to protect themselves by the shells . Have you ever seen such little creatures?”
“You are talking about hermit crabs? Of course, I’ve ever seen them,” the Queen of Water Element said . “They are strange . I think they have a spirituality . For common creatures, if they want attack force, they will improve their strength . If they want defense, they will improve their shells . If they want mobility force, they will improve their speed . However, hermit crabs are different . They choose to use tools to enhance their defense . This is the ability that ordinary creatures don’t own . It is the spirituality that can distinguish between wisdom and obscurity . ”
After being silent for a while, he said, “So, have you ever thought about where its spirituality can be used?”
Obviously, the Queen of Water Element had thought about this problem . She said, shaking her head, “Spirituality is spirituality, and talent is talent . Birds can fly, and fish can swim . Fire elements need fire, and water elements need water . Those are natural attributes . No matter how powerful its spirituality is, its spirituality can’t surpass its natural attributes . ”
Sui Xiong said, sighing, “If you don’t go beyond your natural attributes, how can you go beyond your limits?”
The Queen of Water Element said, sighing, “Your words are true, but how can I go beyond my natural attributes? For so many years, only you could do that . ”
Sui Xiong didn’t reply . He kept silent .
He had already hinted his secret to her, but she misunderstood him . He could do nothing about it .
After a long silence, the Queen of Water Element understood that he wouldn’t say more, so she sent him away with politeness .
When they just stepped out of the huge whirlpool, they heard an earth-shattering sound . The huge whirlpool filled with countless spells of Divine Power suddenly collapsed and set off boundless turbulence .
Looking at the scene that was horrible enough to make ordinary people horrified, Sui Xiong was shocked in his heart . He sighed secretly .
The tree wanted to be quiet, but the wind didn’t stop . It wouldn’t be easy for him to live a peaceful life .
