“That’s a special treasure, a special treasure that cannot be carried…”
The entire Jade Crystal Snake didn’t look good.
“What kind of special treasure?”
Xu Yan let go of its neck again.
“Cough… Cough!”
The Jade Crystal Snake started coughing violently, sticking out its snake tongue, feeling a sense of discomfort in its throat.
“It’s the Earth Spirit Dragon Qi!”
Fearing Xu Yan wouldn’t understand and would choke it again, it quickly explained, “Earth Spirit Dragon Qi, rumored to have been born from the great river of spirit veins, has exceeded the level of first-rank spirit items, reputedly even of divine grade, and possibly even a divine object!”
Upon hearing this, Xu Yan’s eyes lit up. If it truly is the Earth Spirit Dragon Qi, he could utilize it to accumulate sufficient foundation. During his breakthrough to the Divine Intent State, he would surely be able to transform and ascend successfully.
“Why would you tell me about such a treasure?”
Xu Yan wrapped his hand around the Jade Crystal Snake’s neck again, indifferently saying, “Could it be a trap?”
The entire Jade Crystal Snake was numbed. Can he stop choking it?
“Listen to me, listen!”
Xu Yan let go of his grip again, saying, “Go on.”
With its snake tongue sticking out and panting, the Jade Crystal Snake protested, “Can you stop choking me!”
“Fine!”
Xu Yan nodded agreeing to this.
The Jade Crystal Snake was stunned. Xu Yan had agreed so easily?
“It’s like this, the Earth Spirit Dragon Qi is elusive and hard to catch. Aspects of my strength make it extremely challenging for me to obtain the Earth Spirit Dragon Qi.”
Xu Yan suddenly reached out to grab it, but this time he didn’t choke its neck—instead, he caught its tail and shook it. The Jade Crystal Snake felt dizzy, as though its bones were about to rattle apart.
“You really had ulterior motives! You wanted to use me to help you get the Earth Spirit Dragon Qi, keep dreaming!”
Xu Yan laughed coldly.
This snake had attacked him before, he had to take revenge.
“No… No, let me finish!”
The Jade Crystal Snake felt dazed, sensing its bones shifting and its entire body seemed about to fall apart.
Xu Yan loosened his grip saying, “Alright, speak.”
The Jade Crystal Snake shook its head, somewhat suspicious that Xu Yan was seeking revenge for its previous attack in the tomb.
“Next time, just choke my neck.”
The Jade Crystal Snake figured that having its neck choked rather than tail shook was more comfortable.
“Alright!”
Xu Yan nodded, obliging.
The Jade Crystal Snake:…
“It’s like this, I have Azure Sky Flood Dragon bloodline. It might not be Azure Sky Flood Dragon’s, but that’s not important as long as you know I have the bloodline of a flood dragon.
“Currently, I’m in the late stage of the fourth rank, but I’ve nearly peaked, unable to advance further. I need to purify the bloodline to break through to the fifth rank.
“The Azure Sky Flood Dragon is key to my pure bloodline. I intend to get some essence blood of Azure Sky Flood Dragon from you. As an exchange, I will help you obtain the Earth Spirit Dragon Qi.”
The Jade Crystal Snake revealed its motive.
Xu Yan pondered over this, then clutched the Jade Crystal Snake’s neck again, “Just for the essence blood of the Azure Sky Flood Dragon?”
The Jade Crystal Snake didn’t struggle anymore, let him choke if he wants. It had gotten used to it.
“Apart from the Azure Sky Flood Dragon essence blood, it’s also about your Golden Dragon. This dragon might allow me to metamorphosize into a dragon!”
The Jade Crystal Snake praised sincerely.
Xu Yan let go of its neck, not sure whether the dragon power could help the Jade Crystal Snake transform, but since it was trying to get on his good side, he could use this to his advantage.
“You’re a local snake of Yuzhou, right?”
Xu Yan asked.
“Sort of.”
The Jade Crystal Snake nodded, then said, “My name’s Yu Xiaolong.”
“My dream is to eventually transform into a legendary true dragon.”
Yu Xiaolong said, lifting up its head.
It was a snake with big dreams!
“Since you’re a local, it would be easy for you to guide us. Take me to where the Earth Spirit Dragon Qi is, and we can quickly get out of this place.”
Xu Yan nodded.
“No problem, let’s get going.”
Yu Xiaolong pointed to a direction.
Xu Yan immediately followed the direction indicated. Along the way, he curiously asked, “You can’t advance further? Don’t you know how to cultivate?”
“Spirit Beasts depend entirely on their bloodline. They cultivate their bloodlines, and once a bloodline has peaked, it can’t go further. We don’t have a cultivation method like you martial artists.”
Yu Xiaolong looked at him enviously.
Xu Yan patted its head, saying, “Follow me, work hard, and if you perform well, I will let the Red Cat teach you the Ways of the Great Demon. This is much stronger than relying on improving your bloodline. You can cultivate and improve your power like a martial artist.”
“The Ways of the Great Demon? We spiritual beasts can also practice like martial artists instead of relying solely on our bloodline?”
Yu Xiaolong’s face was full of shock.
“Of course, would I lie to you? So work hard.”
Xu Yan encouraged.
“How can you talk? Spiritual beasts, they can’t talk, right?”
Xu Yan asked what puzzled him the most.
Spiritual beasts can communicate with humans using the power of their Divine Souls only once they condense it, that is, when they reach the sixth rank.
But before this, they can’t speak human language.
“I learned.”
Yu Xiaolong explained, “When I was a kid, I was almost eaten by a stinky bird, a very beautiful sister saved me, and I lived with her for a long time, she taught me how to speak.”
“Over time, after I broke through the fourth rank, I could speak.”
Yu Xiaolong spoke, opening his mouth to show his vocal cords in his throat, saying, “This is what my sister helped me with when I was learning to talk, this way I can make sounds.”
Xu Yan was surprised, “So you’re a pet snake!”
“I’m not a pet snake!”
Yu Xiaolong retorted, standing upright.
Then he sagged and said, “That sister, I don’t know where she went, I couldn’t find her, I wanted to thank her, but I couldn’t!”
On the way, Xu Yan learned more about the Ling Domain, Yuzhou, Zheng Country, etc., from Yu Xiaolong. He also gained a deeper understanding of spiritual beasts.
Some spiritual beasts can be taught to speak.
Of course, these kind of spiritual beasts are rare, and most spiritual beasts are proud and disdain human language.
The spiritual dragon energy is extremely far from the Black Cloud Swamp, located at the edge of Yuzhou within the vast mountains.
…
The Celestial Battle ended with the fall of numerous celestial warriors, and the once famous Celestial Ao turned into a corpse monster. When the news spread, it shocked the martial world of Yuzhou.
All the celestial warriors who returned were seriously injured except for Shen Haizhou.
Dai Jun is dead!
The Dai Family was shocked, even family patriarch Dai Sheng came out personally to inquire about the matter.
What they cared about was not Dai Jun, but Dai Yingying!
After learning that Dai Yingying did not go to the Celestial Ao Tomb, they let out a sigh of relief.
However, just a few days later.
The Dai Family was furious, all their warriors went out to pursue and kill the Loose Cultivator!
Dai Yingying, is dead!
After losing contact with Dai Yingying, the Dai Family, after some time of searching, determined that Dai Yingying was dead!
And their primary murder suspect was naturally the Loose Cultivator who had vowed he’d deal with them.
The Royal Family of Zheng also sent out pursuers.
No matter what, Dai Yingying was the fiancée of the Second Prince, the future queen.
Two figures stepped into the sky above the Black Cloud Swamp, their aura as if merging with heaven and earth. Their Divine Soul power scanned every inch, searching bit by bit.
Refining God Heavenly Men!
“Green Celestial Ao is not here, the young man who fought with Green Celestial Ao has also left, his aura has gone in this direction.”
One of the Refining God Heavenly Men said in a deep voice.
“How the Green Celestial Ao turned into a corpse monster, what method was used, this is very important.”
Another Refining God Heavenly Man then spoke.
Following the remaining aura, the two Refining God Heavenly Men pursued the trail.
However, in less than half a day, they stopped.
The aura had disappeared.
In a small village in Qiu Mountain County of Zheng Country.
A burly man opened the door of a house’s courtyard. The people inside heard the sound and came out alertly. When they saw that the visitor was the burly man, they let out a sigh of relief.
“Brother Meng, why are you here?”
Wen Yong stepped forward to greet him, asking curiously.
Huang Meng looked Wen Yong up and down, expressing disbelief, “Little Yong, did you really go and kill Dai Yingying? How did you do it?”
“What?”
Wen Yong swallowed, cold sweat appeared on his forehead, “I didn’t kill Dai Yingying!”
Huang Meng looked doubtful, “Really didn’t kill? Now the Dai Family is crazily hunting you down everywhere, even the Royal Family of Zheng has sent people out.
“Little Yong, that’s a bit impulsive. Now our All Ages Alliance can’t conflict with the Spirit Sect and noble families yet, even so, your courage deserves praise.”
Wen Yong turned pale, and stammered, “Dai Yingying is dead? They all suspect that I did it?”
