Chapter 736 Isn’t this too much of a coincidence?
Sea of Stars.
In a deep sea crack.
"Whoohoo-"
A dark, domineering, and endless aura leaked out from the crack, plundering and devouring all the spiritual energy from all directions.
If you look closely, you can see a huge golden egg with a dark glow lying deep in the crack.
This giant egg is covered with mysterious, rugged and complex runes. It flickers, like a crawling giant beast, devouring the spiritual energy bred by the cracks, and luring some spiritual fish and sea beasts to devour them.
This giant egg is exactly the Kunpeng egg that is being sought by many forces in the Xingxiu Sea!
At this moment, inside the Kunpeng egg, Lu Quanzhen, who had transformed into a demon fetus, was constantly absorbing nutrients and energy from the Kunpeng cub.
Over the years, he has thought of many ways to escape.
For example, he could negotiate with the Kunpeng cubs to seize control, or even use the energy of the Kunpeng eggs to lure the third-order top demon king over and take the opportunity to escape.
But the young Kunpeng is not stupid. He knows that he is not in a good condition to compete with the top demon king, and he is also worried that too much noise will cause trouble.
Therefore, in order to avoid Lu Quanzhen's interference and trouble, he hid directly in this deep-sea crack and used the inspiration from the crack to nurture himself.
Although the speed of growth and birth is much slower, it is absolutely safe and can guarantee that Lu Quanzhen will be killed after birth.
After all, what it wants to do most now is to kill this cancer that is parasitic on its body!
Lu Quanzhen also knew what the young Kunpeng was thinking.
But he has no choice now.
It can only absorb as much nutrition as possible from the Kunpeng giant egg, delay the birth of the Kunpeng cub, and then fight to the death at the last moment.
Lu Changsheng rode on the Sea-Splitting Black Dragon Whale from the Dameng Lake to the Xingxiu Sea and headed straight for the ruins of Kunpeng's Nest.
During this process, he consulted the map every day and adjusted his position to avoid entering the range of major forces.
After all, a fourth-level demon king moving around in the Xingxiu Sea would easily attract attention.
Especially the forces here, have taken many precautions and preventive measures against the beast tide and the attack of the demon king.
If you get close, you may be attacked.
Even if Lu Changsheng was not afraid, he did not want to create any more trouble.
With the help of the Sea-Splitting Black Dragon Whale, Lu Changsheng reached the ruins of Kunpeng's Nest in just one month.
Although as Shen Yiren said, there are many Tribulation cultivators gathered here, and there are also cultivators from some powerful forces guarding here, but the highest one is only in the middle stage of Jindan.
So after Lu Changsheng used the inverted Yin and Yang glass wall, he arrived at the ruins as if he were nothing.
"No wonder the major forces in Xingxiu Sea did not block and occupy it. The secret realm has completely collapsed and dissipated, and was swept into the void."
Golden runes intertwined in Lu Changsheng's pupils as he checked the situation around him.
Apart from some remaining secret aura, there is no trace of Kunpeng's nest.
This is normal.
Even if the secret realm collapsed and shattered at that time, with rare treasures and fragments leaking out, they would have been picked up by other cultivators or monsters long ago, and it is impossible that they have remained until now.
Lu Changsheng clasped his hands together, trying to gather the spiritual energy of heaven and earth from all directions, and use it to deduce information related to Kunpeng's egg.
However, the resistance of heaven's secrets is still hazy and chaotic, and difficult to calculate.
After taking a quick sip, Lu Changsheng stopped divination.
If we use the remaining energy in the Kunpeng Secret Realm to deduce the whereabouts of the Kunpeng egg, then the Kunpeng egg would have been found by the Yuanying forces of the Xingxiu Sea long ago.
He didn't believe that there was no top-level third-level fortune-teller in such a vast Xingxiu Sea.
Besides, he had no expectation of obtaining any clues about Kunpeng eggs directly from the ruins this time.
A white jade porcelain bottle appeared in Lu Changsheng's hand. He used a secret method to gather some of the remaining energy of the Kunpeng Secret Realm. Then he used the technique of looking into the energy to search for some sand and gravel that were contaminated with the energy of the Kunpeng Secret Realm.
After finishing, he left quietly.
He planned to make in-depth deductions based on the clues and information about the Kunpeng eggs, and then use the energy of this secret realm and the blood bond of his son Lu Quanzhen as a medium.
Half a month later, seeing that the Sea-Splitting Black Dragon Whale was about to enter the area of Penglai Island, Lu Changsheng raised his hand lightly, and the Tianyuan Baohuang Lotus, which served as his second dantian, appeared.
Because the Sea-Splitting Black Dragon Whale was too huge, his spirit pet bag could not hold it at all and it was difficult for him to bear such weight.
So at this time, we can only use the Tianyuan Baohuanglian cave.
Otherwise, under normal circumstances, he doesn't like to use the Tianyuan Baohuang Lotus to store things, which will affect the operation of the second dantian.
"Spirit Whale."
Lu Changsheng shouted towards the Sea-Splitting Black Dragon Whale, and the Tianyuan Baohuang Lotus in his palm bloomed with a mysterious blue-green glow, forming a vortex ripple.
"Roar!"
The Sea-Splitting Black Dragon Whale roared, and a glow of light flowed all over its body. Then, under the dazzling light, it gradually shrank and turned into a girl of about eleven or twelve years old with a petite body, a delicate and indifferent face, and two curved dragon horns on her head.
"master."
Although the Sea-Splitting Black Dragon Whale was wearing a domineering armor and had an indifferent face, it had a bit of an innocent quality. It looked at Lu Changsheng with its big dark eyes, and then entered the Tianyuan Treasure Emperor Lotus.
"Hiss, it's so heavy!"
As the Sea-Splitting Black Dragon Whale entered the Tianyuan Treasure Emperor Lotus, the lotus seat in Lu Changsheng's hand sank instantly.
Although the Tianyuan Baohuang Lotus is a treasure of the void and a paradise in itself, it is also affected by its size and weight.
Especially weight bearing.
Once he carried too much weight, he would not only feel like he was carrying a heavy burden, but he would also be unable to use the Tianyuan Baohuang Lotus as his second dantian smoothly as usual.
But there was no way. He didn't have a fourth-level spirit pet bag, nor did he prepare any relevant camouflage magic weapon for the Sea-Splitting Black Dragon Whale.
Once you enter the Penglai Fairy City, you will definitely be noticed.
"I should refine a few fourth-level spirit pet bags later."
Not only the Sea-Splitting Black Dragon Whale.
Once the Soul-Crying Beast or the Golden-Winged Sky-Peng is promoted to the fourth level, the current spirit pet bag will no longer be usable.
Even at this stage, the Golden-Winged Sky-Peng and the Crying Soul-Beast felt that their spirit pet bags were suffocating.
Fortunately, the two spirit pets came from the system, they were extremely loyal to Lu Changsheng and worked hard without complaint.
Otherwise, if it were any other top-level third-order demon king or quasi-fourth-order demon king, they would probably protest immediately and be unwilling to enter such a crowded environment.
After putting away the Tianyuan Baohuang Lotus and adapting himself a little, Lu Changsheng started practicing the Yin-Yang Creation Sutra, transforming all his magic power into the Baoding Medicine King Sutra. He transformed into the appearance of Taoist Xuanmu and flew towards the Penglai Fairy City.
Entering the Fairy City of Penglai, I found that it was a bit more lively than before.
"A high-level auction?"
Lu Changsheng had previously asked Shen Yiren for information about the high-level cultivators’ trade fair.
The latter said that in three years, there would be an auction of high-level monks held once every ten years.
Counting the time, more than two years have passed and the auction is about to begin.
Soon after, Lu Changsheng strolled around Penglai Fairy City for a while, came to Tianxing Tower, and bought two pieces of intelligence information.
One is information about Kunpeng eggs.
The other one contains general information about the auction in Penglai Fairy City.
"Nascent Soul Spirit Thing."
The first piece of intelligence was just some groundless news and did not contain any details about the Kunpeng eggs.
As for the second one, it means that Penglai Island will release several Nascent Soul spiritual objects as the finale.
However, Lu Changsheng was not very interested in Nascent Soul spiritual objects.
Previously in the Hansha Fantasy Realm, he had obtained a total of eight Nascent Soul spiritual objects.
Including the infant-cultivating flower in his own hand, he has no shortage of Nascent Soul spiritual objects.
What's more, he has the [Sun and Moon Mysterious Light Mirror] in his hand, a magical treasure that can reach the sky.
It can condense the Nascent Soul-level sun essence and moon essence!
Although it takes sixty years to condense a Nascent Soul-level sun essence or moon essence.
But Lu Changsheng can give some yin and yang spiritual materials to Awu to refine and use to condense the essence of the sun and the essence of the moon.
After strolling around the Penglai Fairy City, Lu Changsheng reported back to the Goddess Palace and then returned to his Rongyue Island.
As for why it took more than a year to reach the ruins of Kunpeng's Nest, the Goddess Palace did not ask in detail.
After all, as a guest elder who has reached the Jindan stage, he will generally not be restricted too much as long as it does not violate or harm the interests of the sect.
Besides, the main price paid by the Goddess Palace is to provide the fourth-level spiritual pulse to shock the Nascent Soul, so there is not much expense.
If Lu Changsheng does not perform properly or make insufficient contributions during these fifty years, his term of service will eventually be extended, so the Goddess Palace will not be overly harsh or fussy.
"Elder Xuanmu!"
When Song Yudie heard that Lu Changsheng had returned, she came to greet him immediately and took the initiative to report on what had happened in the past year.
Apart from the high-level auction, nothing much happened on Penglai Island.
As for the news related to Kunpeng eggs, it was the same as the intelligence information purchased by Lu Changsheng, with only some groundless information.
"Ah."
Lu Changsheng looked at the pretty and tall Song Yudie in front of him and nodded slightly.
"Elder Xuanmu, Yudie also heard a piece of gossip that Elder Jingqing is preparing to reach the Nascent Soul stage."
After Song Yudie became the manager of Rongyue Island, her status and position in the Goddess Palace was elevated, and she was invited to gatherings of both the children of aristocratic families and the inner sect disciples.
Although she is not very interested in these.
But Lu Changsheng had previously hinted to her to pay more attention to the news about Kunpeng eggs and Xingxiu Sea, and this kind of gathering was an information channel.
"Strike at the Nascent Soul."
Lu Changsheng raised his eyebrows, knowing that this person was one of the peak Jindan cultivators in the Goddess Palace.
If they succeed in breaking through to the Nascent Soul stage, the strength of the Goddess Palace will be further enhanced, completely suppressing other forces on Penglai Island.
"And I heard that once Elder Jingqing breaks through to the Nascent Soul stage, he will ask the Third Palace Master to become his Taoist partner."
Song Yudie continued.
Based on the Third Palace Master's previous visit, her own elders cooking for her, etc., she suspected that Lu Changsheng also had a good impression of the Third Palace Master.
This is normal.
The three palace masters of the Goddess Palace are famous throughout the Xingxiu Sea.
The Grand Palace Master is beyond the reach of many people.
The second palace master has already started a family.
Therefore, the remaining third palace master, Shen Yiren, is regarded as the goddess in many people's dreams.
Even many Jindan cultivators joined the Goddess Palace as guest officials, just to win the heart of the Third Palace Master.
In addition to foreign cultivators, many people on Penglai Island, including the core members of the Goddess Palace, also have admiration for the Third Palace Master.
Elder Jingqing is the one with the greatest hope.
Not only does he have excellent looks, talent and abilities, he is also a direct descendant cultivator trained by the Goddess Palace.
"Good guy"
Lu Changsheng had long known that if he wanted to become a Taoist couple with the Third Palace Master, he would have many rivals in love.
But I didn't expect that there would be such a strong enemy.
Once he breaks through the Nascent Soul stage, he will ask Shen Yiren to be his Taoist partner.
Although he could see that Shen Yiren had a good impression of him and had a certain liking for him.
But this kind of affection is far from being a relationship between men and women.
Moreover, regarding the previous incident with his son Lu Quanzhen, there were many loopholes in his words, which caused Shen Yiren's favorability towards him to slightly decrease. It would be difficult to make any progress with the Third Palace Master in a short period of time.
Lu Changsheng briefly inquired about Elder Jingqing's situation and came to the conclusion that it would be difficult for this person to become a Taoist partner with Shen Yiren.
He has excellent looks and talents, and is a direct descendant of the Goddess Palace. His relationship with Shen Yiren is just good, but not close.
In this case, if you want to break through to the Nascent Soul stage and achieve it in one step, it will be quite difficult.
After all, with two Nascent Soul sisters, Shen Yiren doesn't have to compromise with anyone.
But it cannot be ruled out that Elder Jingqing spent all his time and energy on cultivation in his early years and had no interest in too many matters between men and women. He only launched the offensive after breaking through the Nascent Soul stage, and he was able to get the upper hand because he was close to the water.
"Tsk, it's not easy to capture a woman like this."
Lu Changsheng knew that if he wanted to become a Taoist partner with a woman like Shen Yiren, he could only attract each other slowly and it would be difficult to achieve it quickly.
He waved to Song Yudie, indicating that the auction in Penglai Fairy City was about to take place and to notify him, and then he went into seclusion to draw talismans.
half year later.
Lu Changsheng received a message from Song Yudie.
It means that the auction will start in three days, and you can go there now with the high-level monks of the Goddess Palace.
"it is good."
Upon hearing this, Lu Changsheng patted her skirt slightly, walked out of Rongyue Island, and came to the gate of the Goddess Palace.
You can see five or six figures here, and the leader is Shen Yiren.
Her hair was tied up in a bun, and she was wearing an elegant green dress. She was sitting on a five-colored deer with a graceful and elegant posture.
Lu Changsheng could tell at a glance that this five-colored spirit deer was extraordinary and was a spirit beast with heavenly bloodline.
"Fellow Daoist Xuanmu."
Seeing Lu Changsheng coming over, Shen Yiren smiled charmingly and took the initiative to greet him in a soft and moving voice.
When several Jindan cultivators nearby saw Lu Changsheng, they also bowed and nodded, looking at Lu Changsheng in front of them.
After all, the Goddess Palace has a new guest priest in the late Jindan stage, which is not a small matter, so I might as well take this opportunity to get to know him.
"I heard that Elder Xuanmu is proficient in medical theory and talismans. I have also studied talismans. We can discuss this topic when we have time."
A man with white hair and beard but a young face spoke politely to Lu Changsheng.
“Extremely welcome.”
Although Lu Changsheng was not interested in such things.
But now he is Xuanmu Zhenren, and as a clan cultivator and a free cultivator, he is naturally willing to communicate with others and promote his improvement.
Otherwise, his intention of only being interested in Shen Yiren would be too obvious.
After waiting for a while, two more Jindan cultivators arrived, and then everyone went to Penglai Fairy City together.
All the monks on the way saw them and saluted them respectfully.
After all, except for this kind of auction for high-level cultivators, under normal circumstances, it is rare to see so many Jindan cultivators traveling together.
"Greetings to the Third Palace Master, and to all the elders!"
"Uncle Master, Aunt."
When they arrived at the Fairy City of Penglai, several disciples from the Palace of the Goddess came to greet them and saluted respectfully. Leading the way were two beautiful women, one big and one small.
The older one looked to be about 27 or 28 years old. He was very good-looking, with a pretty face, a delicate forehead and tall eyebrows. His slightly deep facial features made him look a little cold.
She was tall and graceful, with a well-proportioned figure, not much inferior to Shen Yiren. Under her white tasseled skirt, a pair of small white embroidered shoes were faintly visible.
The girl next to him was about sixteen or seventeen years old. Although her appearance was not much worse than the former, her body curves were completely inferior, and her nipples were just beginning to show.
"Yu Ning, evening light."
Shen Yiren shouted with a gentle smile, her voice as clear as a flowing spring, introducing them to the people next to them.
Then he held Qin Yuning's hand and said to Lu Changsheng: "Yuning, this is Elder Xuanmu who rescued you."
"Yu Ning meets Elder Xuan Mu. Thank you for saving me that day!"
Qin Yuning looked at the elegant and handsome Lu Changsheng in front of her, bowed, and her graceful figure was revealed, beautiful and moving.
"Fellow Taoist, you're welcome."
Having been in the Goddess Palace for so long, Lu Changsheng also knew that Qin Yuning, whom he rescued, was the master of the Goddess Palace, and a disciple of the Grand Palace Master Shen Jianjia, so Shen Yicai came to visit him in person to express his gratitude.
However, he was more surprised and stunned by Shen Wanzhao who was standing next to him.
I thought, this is too coincidental! ?
The first time he saw her, he recognized her as the little girl who asked for directions and received medical treatment when he sent his son Lu Quanzhen to Xingxiu Sea in his early years.
I never expected that this person would call Shen Yiren "Auntie"!
But the First Palace Master doesn’t have a Taoist partner, and the Second Palace Master doesn’t seem to have a daughter either?
