novelNine Revolutions Pill Enters Becomes A Trump Card!
| ← Ch.217 | Ch.219 → |
The moment Daoist Wen Jing and the other ferocious people retreated, the experts of the dragon race freed themselves. The dragons rushed towards the fishes, raised their swords, and slashed down from the south to the north, from the north to the west...
The entire Sea Clan's rebel army and the deep-sea demons had lost their backbone. Their troops were defeated like a mountain. The Western Sect had taken away many high-ranking and powerful generals of the Sea Clan's rebel army in order to preserve the root that would cause trouble in the future.
However, the deep-sea demons were thrown to the ground and completely abandoned... The six disciples of the Western Sect walked around the East Ocean and missed the opportunity to appear. They could only secretly return to the Aparagodānīya Continent. They cursed in the vulgarities of the Western Sect.
Li Changshou did not care how angry they were or how they were going to split the blame.
Li Changshou was worried that Senior Zhao Gongming had too much hatred towards the Western Sect. That is not a good thing.
Although Zhao Gongming did not care, he, Li Changshou, had indirectly tricked him, after all...
The hatred should have been borne by Ren School.
Li Changshou looked at the Great Daoist Master and hesitated to speak.
The Great Daoist Master seemed to have seen through Li Changshou's worries and he said warmly, "Are you worried about Junior Brother Zhao?" Li Changshou sighed and smiled bitterly."I'm worried that the Western Sect will plot against Senior Gongming because of this." "I will take action when the time comes. You don't have to worry." The Great Daoist Master Xuan Du chuckled and looked at the crystal mirror. He sighed and stood up.
"There's nothing important here. I should return to Tushita Palace. Changshou, do you want to return with me?" "I'll have to trouble you to bring me along." Li Changshou smiled and continued, "I'm a small disciple of the Immortal Du Sect. It's not appropriate for me to appear here." "Why?"
The Great Daoist Master said, "Half of the crisis of the Dragon race today is because of you. When are you going to learn how to be humble and give in? Aren't you going to look for the dragon race to gain some benefits?"
Li Changshou bowed with a Dao salute and said seriously, "I'm only concerned about what the people in Ren School think of me. I don't want to ask for anything else. The matter of the Dragon Palace is ultimately a scheme. I have already received your reward and the Heavenly Courts' reward. I shouldn't covet the treasures of the dragon race in the first place." "Hahahaha! I admire you for being good at talking."
The Great Daoist Master Xuan Du smiled with his hands behind his back. He pointed at Li Changshou and said with a smile, "If you had been born hundreds of thousands of years earlier, I would not have been so lonely during my cultivation. Changshou, what do you think about the subsequent matters of the dragon race?"
Li Changshou pondered for a while and answered, "Although the dragon race won today, they exposed many problems. I reckon that the dragon race would be a little... arrogant in the coming period. It is not suitable for the Heavenly Courts to continue interacting with them. Now, the Heavenly Courts still have to keep a distance from the dragon race. They cannot expose their intention to recruit the dragon race. I will continue to guide the dragon race with my status as the Sea God of the South Ocean. I plan to give Ao Yi some merit from the Heavenly Courts and set an example for the dragon race. I will use merit to lure them." Great Daoist Master Xuan Du nodded slowly."Since you understand, I won't give you any more instructions."
Li Changshou smiled and said, "Thank you for your reminder, Great Daoist Master." "Hahaha." Great Daoist Master Xuan Du waved his hand."You said that the dragon race has exposed many problems. What are the main issues? I'm not testing you this time. I'm just curious."
Li Changshou pondered for a while and said, "Great Daoist Master, why don't we sit here for another four hours? We'll find out later."
"Oh?"
The Great Daoist Master Xuan Du was instantly interested. He pulled Li Changshou to take a seat together."Let's watch for half a day then. Let's see what's going to happen next."
Are you really not busy?
There was indeed a good show. However, they needed to wait for another day, until the Dragon race's wedding was over, and the newlyweds were sent to the bridal chamber.
Everyone knew that after a pair of newlyweds was sent to the nuptial chamber, they would definitely... play a fool.
Back to the serious matters.
Outside the East Ocean Dragon Palace, the dragon race's troops had forced the strong enemies to retreat. They did not give chase and were already cleaning up the battle.
Although Ao Yi had missed the auspicious hour for his wedding, it did not affect him much. He had already resumed the process and continued to proceed. There was a huge battle outside the palace but the wedding inside was filled with enthusiasm and joy. The experts from the dragon race, the generals of the dragon race, and the generals who had just joined the battle, all gathered at the Crystal Palace... At that moment, Li Changshou's "problems" were directly revealed. Among the experts of the dragon race, the one who had been the most hardworking and high-level in killing the enemy was sitting at the back of the ceremony. The seats at the front were occupied by some of the dragon race's "authoritative nobles" who had not attacked before or had gone out to supervise the battle.
As for the numerous Immortal Flood Dragon troops, they did not even have the right to enter the Crystal Palace. They could only watch from afar.
Li Changshou pointed at the scene in front of him and whispered, "Please take a look, Great Daoist Master. This is the fatal injury of the dragon race."
The Great Daoist Master's expression was serious. This time, he did not calculate with his fingers. Instead, he pondered.
A person's heart could not be deduced.
The Great Daoist Master shook his head slightly and said calmly, "Those who wield the power of the Heavenly Gods are not weak. Those who fight bravely are like slaves. The dragon race is still following their ancient heritage. They respect their bloodline. It's a pity that the dragon race came from ancient times. The dragons with the pure blood of the Ancestral Dragon has been reduced by too much because it had filled the sea eye. At that moment, it can no longer suppress the immortal dragon troops and dragons."
The dragons transformed into pythons, snakes, flood dragons, fishes, and so on. The race with the dragon bloodline had become different from True Dragons. Li Changshou said in a low voice, "It's difficult for the dragon race. They can't give up their power to these transformed Dragons and Immortal Flood Dragon troops. If you give up your power, the first ones to rebel against the Dragon King will be the ones sitting beside him." "Tsk." The Great Daoist Master frowned and said, "The dragon race indeed needs a powerful medicine. Although the Western Sect hurt them this time, they were not ruthless enough."
Li Changshou added, "After this battle, the Sea Clan will probably need at least a few hundred years to recover. Only the experts of the Western Sect can continue to exert pressure on the dragon race.
If the conflict within the dragon race is taken advantage of..." "They've been used."
Great Daoist Master Xuan Du raised his hand and pointed. The image quickly locked onto a dark-skinned burly man outside the hall. He was an Immortal Flood Dragon General. He was a Golden Immortal realm cultivator. His aura was strong and powerful.
Xuan Du grabbed the mirror gently. The burly man's body seemed to have turned transparent. There was a Blood Mosquito near his essence soul.
Li Changshou pondered for a moment and said softly, "Great Daoist Master, this is a puppet that one of their people got."
"Is it that enchanting woman?" "I think so. I've seen that Blood Mosquito a few times." The two of them looked at each other and smiled. They avoided the topic and continued to discuss the subsequent matters regarding the dragon race. The Great Daoist Master understood a little. The Little Daoist Master understood a little.
The dragon race had barely won today. Most of the dragons were excited. Of course, there were also a small number of people like Ao Yi, who had a conscience. They felt heavy-hearted because their clansmen died in battle.
The Great Daoist Master looked at the wedding of the dragon race again. When he saw that the guests were presenting gifts, he did not look further and brought Li Changshou away.
Before he left, Li Changshou put away the crystal mirror. Although the mystical abilities on it would dissipate soon, he would have other uses for them later.
With the protection of the Immortal Beans, the forty thousand Heavenly Soldiers did not suffer many casualties.
The Heavenly Soldiers had already left the East Ocean. They gathered above the East Ocean and were prepared to return to the Heavenly Courts. The Dragon Palace sent a few Turtle Immortals to persuade the Heavenly Generals to go to the Dragon Palace to attend the banquet. However, the Heavenly Generals only said that it was not convenient for them to enter.
The dragon race had brought a large number of treasures over, but the Heavenly Soldiers did not even look at them. They had long received the orders from General Dongmu. They did not take the lives of any of the Three Realms' living beings. When the Heavenly Soldiers flew up into the sky, what was left behind was the Heavenly Courts'... legends.
Li Changshou was tossed 1, 500 kilometers outside the gate of the Immortal Du Sect. Just like last time, the Great Daoist Master let out a hearty laugh. Li Changshou still did not see how the Great Daoist Master had left.
He collected his emotions and checked himself.
The anti-deduction items were all prepared. The Qi-Calming Turtle Breathing Mantra was functioning normally. Only then did he ride the cloud towards the Immortal Sect. After successfully entering the Immortal Sect, Li Changshou went to the Hundred Mortal Hall to return the jade token. He also brought it to the external elders. He stuffed a spiritual beast ball that contained a "spiritual beast that could already be slaughtered". Only then did Li Changshou return to the Little Qiong Peak.
The summary of this trip was as follows:
The Western Sect's plot to make the Heavenly Courts' first show of their prowess had given the Dragon Clan a preliminary impression of the Heavenly Courts.
He had to increase the Great Daoist Master's favorability towards him and complete the crucial step of the dragon race's entry to the Heavenly Courts. He had saved the paper effigy army and a large number of poisonous pills. If he did not use them, he would profit.
There were also two spiritual pills given by the Great Daoist Master... Li Changshou endured the urge to open it and take a look. He returned to his Pill Chamber and took out the jade bottle that the Great Daoist Master had given him. He wrapped more than ten layers of immortal power around himself and sent the jade bottle 30 feet away. He carefully removed the bottle stopper... There was no fragrance nor immortal light. However, a mysterious Dao rune that contained a perfected will slowly circulated.
Li Changshou immediately used his immortal power to block the opening of the jade bottle. He retreated dozens of feet and was almost knocked out of the Pill Chamber...
As long as he hid fast, the Dao runes and comprehension will not be able to catch up!
That was...
Li Changshou looked at the jade bottle and had a ridiculous thought.
Nine...
Nine, Nine Revolutions Spirit Pill?
Can't be wrong! It is definitely a Nine Revolutions Spirit Pill. The perfected Dao rune is definitely not rank seven or rank eight!
Li Changshou carefully picked up a wisp of Dao runes and carefully sensed it. He was stunned for a while before grinning.
Nine Revolutions Golden Pill!
It was the Nine Revolutions Golden Pill refined by the Grand Supreme Elder!
That was the best pill that the Saint personally refined!
The Great Daoist Master had given him two Nine Revolutions Golden Pills that could revive the dead, add flesh to bones, and reverse life and death! The Great Daoist Master had given him two at once!
What are these?
These are two lives!
As long as he was not reduced to ashes by a powerful enemy, he would be able to save his life with the Nine Revolutions Golden Pill!
It was not a dream to revive with full health!
Li Changshou only wanted to raise his head and shout, "I'm working for the Saint, the Grand Supreme Elder, and the Great Daoist Master. I'm doing it from the bottom of my heart!"
Of course, he could not shout out loud. The Saint would sense it and might really give him some missions.
Li Changshou stood there and laughed for a while. Very quickly, he stopped and placed the two Nine Revolutions Golden Pills in his trump card bag. He placed them in the innermost position. After taking two deep breaths, Li Changshou closed his eyes and calmed himself down.
His confidence in facing the Golden Immortal Tribulation had increased to 93%!
After preparing for another one or two hundred years, he could basically attempt to transcend the Golden Immortal Tribulation and obtain the Dao Fruit of Longevity."The Great Mage has treated me well!" Li Changshou smiled and thought to himself, In the future, if the Great Daoist Master has any instructions, do it with all your might.
Well, as long as it is not in conflict with what the Grand Pure One had instructed...
The matter about Daoist Wen is an exception.
Although he was in a good mood, Li Changshou did not let his guard down. He immediately hid his main body and focused on Ao Yi's wedding.
At that moment, Li Changshou looked at the couple worshiping the Ancestral Dragon Totem and felt a little happy. The process of paying respects to the Ancestral Dragon was rather cumbersome. Li Changshou felt a little bored watching from the side. He greeted the beautiful sea musicians beside him, put away the paper effigies who were playing musical instruments, and returned to his seat beside Elder Moon.
"Sea God."
Upon hearing the voice transmission, Li Changshou looked over. It was the Heavenly General that the Jade Emperor had transformed into.
The Heavenly General held his wine glass and sent a voice transmission, "The sea is a mysterious plot. Today, I've seen that it's really extraordinary. You used the immortal beans to kill demons and an ingenious plan to settle the four seas. The Jade Emperor is really fortunate to have the help of the Sea God."
Li Changshou smiled and thought of that person as an ordinary Heavenly General of the Heavenly Courts. He transmitted his voice and said, "The Heavenly Courts are so lucky. Their reputation was built by the soldiers who fought hard. I really don't dare to claim credit."
The Heavenly general smiled and said, "I believe that His Majesty will reward the soldiers who have come to the mortal world today."
The words 'I believe' are a little redundant. His Majesty's acting skills are still flawed. However, he could tell that the Jade Emperor was in a good mood... His eyebrows were almost flying.
A few Heavenly Generals at the side also raised their cups and toasted Li Changshou. Those Heavenly Generals had heard from General Dongmu that the person in front of them had already gained the Jade Emperor's trust before he even went to the Heavenly Courts.
Once the Heavenly Dao's decree was completed, that person would officially ascend to the heavens. He would definitely be the favored one in front of His Majesty. Two hours later, Ao Yi and Jiang Si'er finally finished paying respects to the Ancestral Dragon. They began to rest during the intermission and waited for the next 'ritual'.
The guests started to move around. Those who wanted to befriend some people took the opportunity to toast and chat with them.
At the Heavenly Courts' table, there were more guests walking around. The gazes that were directed at them were less gentle and more solemn.
Elder Moon kept getting up and exchanging pleasantries with unknown experts. He was still able to respond with ease. From the looks of it, he had been attending quite a lot of banquets!
Ao Yi, who wanted to look for his Brother Sect Master, could only look over there. He could not move anywhere. There were still six hours left before the ceremony would end. He and Jiang Si'er had to finish going through the rituals, step by step. However, something unexpected happened six hours later...
After the wedding ceremony was completed, the hosts of the Dragon Palace thanked the guests. Ao Yi and Jiang Si'er toasted each other.
Even though the Crystal Palace was almost overturned, the East Ocean Dragon King still did not move. He led a few elders with dragon heads and carried two cups of Golden Bottle Jade Wine as they headed straight for the table.
The old Dragon King's target was not Elder Moon, but the... the Jade Emperor's incarnation
Li Changshou was about to watch the show when he suddenly heard an immortal voice transmission."Um... Guest Changgeng, help me block it. My incarnation has been in the Heavenly Courts for tens of thousands of years. If I am exposed, it will be detrimental... to the Celestial Thearch's authority." Li Changshou was rendered speechless.
You're not here to watch the show on a whim.
Instead, you directly created an incarnation and placed it in your minister's territory to monitor his every move? What kind of behavior is that?
Are all the guards at the east and west actually you?
Li Changshou turned his head and looked at the Jade Emperor's incarnation. He deliberately revealed a look of shock... The latter was still smiling, but he blinked at Li Changshou.
