Volume 2: The Demonic World Chapter 464: Hidden Dragon Fairy Island
The Kun beast moved forward in the devouring fog, and Lin Qianxing and others also got a rare moment of peace.
Of course, they didn't let their guard down completely.
You should not have the intention to harm others, but you must be on guard against others.
Most people in the world will not do anything without benefits. If She Zhongwan is not just a good person, but has other plans for them, they still need to consider how to deal with it.
The Kun beast moved very fast. After about two days, its body stopped.
At this time, Lin Qianxing and She Zhong were standing on top of the Kun beast, looking down.
They were spherical brown monsters covered with thorns like sea urchins.
Among them, the smallest ones are only the size of a fist, while the largest ones are like a house. They are densely packed all over the earth, and it is unknown how far they stretch.
After the Kun beast slowly descended, Lin Qianxing discovered that those thorns were not actually thorns, but chimney-like pillars that were spewing out white mist.
The color of these white mists is exactly the same as that of the devouring mists.
In an instant, Lin Qianxing's expression suddenly froze on his face.
He looked at She Zhong and asked, "Fellow Daoist She, what is this?"
"This is a fog beast. It can devour all kinds of substances between heaven and earth to grow, and then condense fog crystals in its body. The fog crystals store pure energy, which can be used to drive magical instruments, to practice formations, and so on." She Zhong said to Lin Qianxing.
"What about the fog around us?" Lin Qianxing asked tentatively.
"Friend Lin guessed correctly. This sea of fog was formed because of them. The fog spewed out by the fog beast will disturb the space, so from time to time there will be strange beasts or cultivators from other domains swept here by the turbulence of time and space. Fortunately, the energy of living beings can drive them away. The energy of the Kun beast is incomparable. One Kun beast can drive away the fog in almost half of the sea of fog. Therefore, every year we ride the Kun beast to kill the fog beast and collect the fog crystals." She Zhong said.
Lin Qianxing was silent for a moment, but his expression did not change much.
He finally understood why She Zhong was not surprised when he saw him, but instead felt sad that someone else was involved in this place.
I finally understood why there is Qingming Festival every year.
People living in this foggy sea area summarized it as the laws of heaven and earth.
Little did they know that this was actually just a change brought about by the higher-level monks.
He suddenly thought of a joke.
A man feeds a group of ants at a fixed time day after day.
So a scholar among the ants summed up a law that at a certain moment in this place, food will appear out of thin air.
The Qingming Festival is actually a law summed up by ants living in the sea of fog.
At this time, the Kun beast stopped descending, and one by one the cultivators got off the Kun beast, using either spiritual power or weapons to quickly kill the fog beasts one by one, and then took out thumb-sized crystals from their stomachs and put them into a small pocket of their own.
Lin Qianxing noticed that no matter the size of the fog beast, the size of the crystals did not change, only the color would be different.
He asked She Zhong about this discovery, and She Zhong answered immediately.
She Zhong explained: "Fellow Daoist Lin has hit the nail on the head. Theoretically, the size of this fog beast can grow without limit, but its flesh is dirty and soft like mud, and has no use value. Only the crystal core in its body is different. It will accumulate energy as it grows, but it will not expand as its body size, but will only accumulate more and more pure energy as it grows.
So far, we have only seen three qualities of mist crystals. The first is gray, which is basically the mist crystal in the body of a mist beast of about one year old. Then there is black, which is produced by a mist beast of ten years old. Then there is purple, which requires a mist beast of more than fifty years old to produce. The darker the color, the more energy it contains. "
Lin Qianxing understood.
Then he said, "Fellow Daoist She, I am somewhat interested in this mist crystal. I wonder if I can exchange it for two crystals to observe."
As he spoke, Lin Qianxing took out two fingernail-sized crystals of pain and handed them to She Zhong.
As soon as She Zhong took a look at the Crystal of Pain, he knew in his heart that this thing was a magical object that contained unique rules.
"Why bother talking about exchange? They're just a few mist crystals. If Brother Lin is interested, I'll give them to you." Although She Zhong wanted them, he still said politely.
After saying that, he took out three kinds of mist crystals and handed one to Lin Qianxing.
"If Daoist Fellow She regards me as a friend, then how could I let Daoist Fellow She suffer any loss? Let's put one thing on one thing!" Lin Qianxing retorted.
Then Lin Qianxing also gave the crystal of pain to She Zhong.
"Then I won't be polite." She Zhong said.
After clearly gaining the upper hand, She Zhong felt much happier.
In addition, Lin Qianxing had good communication skills, and soon the two sides began to treat each other as brothers.
It did not take much time to collect the mist crystals. In just half a day, the disciples of the Qianlong Secret Realm had collected all the mist crystals that needed to be collected. As for the remaining mist beasts, they either continued to stay here to reproduce or had not reached their age limit and were not yet time to be collected.
At this time, the Kun beast began to return.
Lin Qianxing calculated the time it would take the Kun beast to go back and forth, and it was exactly five days.
It is the Qingming time summarized by people in the Fog Sea area.
This seems ridiculous.
At night, Lin Qianxing returned to his residence and found that Mo Ling and others were in low spirits.
Upon asking, I found out that they had also learned the truth about the Fog Sea from the disciples of the Qianlong Secret Realm.
Man San was a little angry, but he didn't know who to vent his anger on.
Hidden Dragon Secret Realm?
They didn't deliberately target you.
You've lived in someone else's farm for so many years, and confiscating your rent is already fair to you.
Sometimes the truth is just so cruel.
Lin Qianxing didn’t know how to comfort them, so he could only sigh and return to his room.
After closing the door, Lin Qianxing took out the three mist crystals that he had obtained from She Zhong during the day.
[Mist crystal (gray): The mist crystal condensed in the mist beast's body stores pure energy.]
When Lin Qianxing saw this scene, his expression became very subtle.
The fog beast was obviously a strange beast, but the fog crystal in its body was not a strange creature! !
Then he looked at the black mist crystal and the purple mist crystal and found that these two things were the same and were not strange objects.
Lin Qianxing's mind moved, and he used his spirit to contact the energy in the mist crystal. He found that this energy was very gentle and very easy to use.
After a moment's thought, Lin Qianxing activated his Taotie Heaven-Devouring Divine Ability, and his stomach turned into a furnace, swallowing all three mist crystals into his stomach.
Immediately, the three mist crystals were digested by him in just a flash.
Lin Qianxing also clearly felt that his energy level had increased.
Immediately, Lin Qianxing took out the [Wanshi Jar]. He tapped the edge of the jar lightly, and a large jar full of irregular purple mist crystals appeared in it.
Of course, Lin Qianxing didn’t intend to eat this thing.
Although the energy contained in this thing is not weak, it can indeed be used for cultivation.
But if he swallowed the crystals of pain to practice, his efficiency would be much higher.
The reason why Lin Qianxing made this thing was mainly because he thought that he would enter the Qianlong Secret Realm with She Zhong and others in the future, and he would need to set up a family business, which required start-up capital.
He didn't have the currency there, and he didn't know if their things could be used.
Judging from She Zhong's attitude, the Crystal of Pain should be considered a usable item for trading, but it is obviously impossible to use it as a regular item for trading.
If there are too many of them, it will be impossible not to cause trouble.
As for Wu Jing, Lin Qianxing had already heard the news from She Zhong.
This thing is considered a common item over there.
You can find any store to sell it, the only difference is the price.
With this thing, he won't have to worry about running out of money in the future.
Immediately, Lin Qianxing took out a small brocade bag and put the mist crystal and the [Food Jar] directly into it.
This is the space prop he exchanged from She Zhong. It is specially used to store supplies, so the space is very large. Most importantly, this thing is not a weird object.
[Qiankun Bag: A pocket containing 10,000 cubic meters of space.]
Lin Qianxing packed up his things and started practicing again.
Although he has plug-ins, he can't rely entirely on them, right?
After all, plug-ins are not absolutely omnipotent.
Time passes.
After the Kun beast had traveled for more than two days, Lin Qianxing suddenly felt that there were some changes in the surrounding world.
Many large and small suspended islands appeared before our eyes.
He looked back and found that there was an island behind him also shrouded in endless fog. That was the foggy sea where they were before.
And on these islands outside, there are also some creatures living to varying degrees.
Some of them even have people on them.
"Is this the 80 million fairy island?" Lin Qianxing asked.
“How can these be considered fairy islands? They are just some inconspicuous small islands, or at most slightly larger pumice stones. The supplies on them are scarce, and it is impossible to practice cultivation. However, some cultivators in secret realms have bought them and opened up caves on them, which makes them feel free.” She Zhong said with a smile.
Lin Qianxing estimated the size of those islands by visual inspection and found that the larger ones were even as big as half of Fuyao.
Even this was just called a slightly larger pumice stone by She Zhong.
How big would the real fairy island be?
About half a month later, Lin Qianxing finally saw the Qianlong Fairy Island, the core of the Qianlong Secret Realm mentioned by She Zhong.
Lin Qianxing didn't know how to describe it, but when he took a glance, it was difficult to see the whole picture, as if it was endless.
Soon after, when the Kun beast arrived at Qianlong Fairy Island, Lin Qianxing was shocked to find that the Kun beasts under them were everywhere here, and their sizes were surprisingly small compared to many of the buildings here.
When the Kun beast docked at a huge platform, Lin Qianxing and others also arrived at their destination.
"I would like to thank Brother She for seeing me off all the way." Lin Qianxing saluted.
"Brother Lin and I hit it off right away. This is just a small thing, so I don't deserve your thanks." She Zhong said with a smile.
"When we meet again someday, I will definitely treat Brother She to a great feast." Lin Qianxing said.
"Definitely next time." She Zhong said.
After some polite exchanges, both parties officially announced their separation.
Lin Qianxing said to Jinmu and the others with a smile: "Let's go and see how vast the world outside the well is."
