Chapter 716: The secret realm of the medicine garden, the Infant Pill!
“A secret realm has emerged?”
Lu Changsheng chuckled upon hearing this and said, “If that’s the case, then let’s go take a look.”
Whether it’s the emergence of treasures or the appearance of a secret realm, as the city lord, he should go and see, both in terms of duty and reason.
Upon hearing this, the Fissure Sea Black Dragon Whale immediately broke through the waves towards the direction where the azure divine light surged, creating a terrifying momentum.
The commotion here was significant, with divine light soaring into the sky, and some scattered cultivators had already come to investigate the situation.
Just then, they suddenly saw a turbulent demonic aura surging from the depths of the Great Dream Marsh, spreading towards them, causing their expressions to change drastically.
“What is this!”
“A demon king, a top-tier demon king has been attracted here!”
“We’re doomed!”
These cultivators hurriedly fled in a frenzy.
After all, apart from a few Pseudo-Core cultivators, most of the cultivators who came to investigate were Foundation Establishment cultivators.
Once they encountered a Rank 3 demon king in this boundless Great Dream Marsh, they would only face death.
Now that there were many people, as long as they escaped past some other cultivators, they might still have a chance to survive.
“It’s a Whale King, and there are people on this Whale King!”
“It’s Lord City Lord and Lady City Lord!”
“Greetings, Lord City Lord, greetings, Lady City Lord!”
The faint demonic aura emanating from the Fissure Sea Black Dragon Whale caused many Foundation Establishment cultivators to feel as if they were carrying a heavy burden, their mana becoming chaotic, making it difficult for them to breathe, and their faces turning pale, even from a distance.
However, when some people saw a pair of figures standing side by side on the Fissure Sea Black Dragon Whale, shrouded in chaotic airflow, making it impossible to see their faces clearly, yet resembling a divine couple, they immediately recognized Lu Changsheng and Hong Lian and bowed respectfully.
Upon hearing that the newcomers were the City Lord and Lady City Lord of Great Dream City, and not wild demon kings from the Great Dream Marsh, the cultivators in the area all breathed a sigh of relief.
Lu Changsheng signaled the Fissure Sea Black Dragon Whale to restrain its aura, otherwise, the mere pressure could crush some Foundation Establishment cultivators to death.
“Why do I feel that Lord City Lord’s spirit pet is even more terrifying? Just getting close makes it difficult for me to breathe.”
“Is this still the same Whale King from before? It feels even more domineering than before. I remember it only had one horn before, but now it has two, and they look like dragon horns!”
The cultivators in the area looked at the Fissure Sea Black Dragon Whale from afar, all with expressions of shock and respect.
After all, under normal circumstances, where would they have the opportunity to come into contact with such a top-tier demon king?
However, some cultivators also noticed that the Fissure Sea Black Dragon Whale was completely different from how it was in its early years.
“Wait, what is that!”
“A hundred zhang in size, this seems to be… a demon king!”
“Could it be that Lord City Lord and Lady City Lord went to the depths of the Great Dream Marsh to hunt demon kings?”
“I seemed to sense a terrifying fluctuation coming from the depths of the Great Dream Marsh earlier. Could it be that Lord City Lord and Lady City Lord were hunting demon kings?”
As the Fissure Sea Black Dragon Whale approached the location where the divine light soared, some people noticed that on the tail of the Fissure Sea Black Dragon Whale, there was also a giant whale being dragged, covered in wounds and bound by chains.
Although the demonic aura of this giant whale was sealed, making it seem as if it were dead.
Based on its size, it could be seen that it was a very terrifying Rank 3 demon king!
In an instant, everyone in the area was horrified, as if a huge wave of shock had been stirred up, and they looked at Lu Changsheng and Hong Lian on the Fissure Sea Black Dragon Whale with awe, not daring to breathe loudly.
“It really is a secret realm.”
Lu Changsheng saw a huge vortex in front of him, with a divine light soaring straight into the sky, emanating from this vortex.
From this vortex, he discerned some spatial fluctuations and an ancient aura different from the Great Dream Marsh.
“This secret realm should be at the bottom of the Great Dream Marsh. It’s likely that the Great Spirit Whale was undergoing its tribulation to break through, or husband’s battle with the Flood Dragon King affected the sea eye, leading to the emergence of the secret realm.”
Hong Lian analyzed the situation in front of her.
“Spirit Whale, can you separate this sea area?”
Lu Changsheng asked the Fissure Sea Black Dragon Whale.
Upon hearing this, the Fissure Sea Black Dragon Whale’s Rank 4 demon king aura surged, and it was about to take action immediately.
“Wait.”
Lu Changsheng quickly stopped it, thinking that this girl was really impatient and acted without restraint. He looked at all the cultivators in the distance and said in a deep voice, “All of you, retreat a hundred miles away.”
Upon hearing this, the cultivators in the area, even if they were unwilling in their hearts, knew that this kind of secret realm opportunity was not something they could touch. They respectfully bowed and then transformed into遁光 (遁光 is a term referring to escaping at high speed using mana) and left.
After these people had left, the Fissure Sea Black Dragon Whale roared lowly, and the two dragon horns on its head formed a ripple that overturned the sea, causing the vortex in front to gradually flow backward.
“This, this, this…”
The cultivators who were forced to move away looked at this movement and were all horrified, exclaiming loudly, as if they had seen a ghost.
They wondered what kind of magical power this was!
They immediately understood that Lord City Lord told them to leave not to drive them away, but for their own good.
Otherwise, they would not be able to withstand the power of such magical powers and the tsunami that swept through.
After a moment, Lu Changsheng saw a bare, barren stone cliff standing below the vortex.
Many parts of this stone cliff had fallen off, revealing a cliff body that resembled azure crystal.
Through the crystal, one could vaguely see an island filled with misty vapor and glowing with light.
“When the stone cliff completely falls off, will the secret realm open?”
Lu Changsheng’s eyes burst out with brilliant golden light, seeing that there were invisible restrictions flowing on the stone cliff, and the spatial fluctuations were leaking from the dissipating restrictions.
This restriction was very exquisite and profound, but under the erosion of time, it had become damaged and was now self-destructing.
“At this rate, the secret realm will open in at most three months.”
Hong Lian’s beautiful eyes flowed with crimson light, looking at the invisible restrictions on the stone cliff.
“Three months.”
Lu Changsheng’s eyes narrowed slightly.
With the emergence of such a secret realm, the news would probably immediately reach the ears of the Four Great Immortal Sects of Jiang Country, and it would not be easy for his family to monopolize it.
At this time, Hong Lian flicked a firebird towards the cliff in front.
The azure divine light on the stone cliff surged, forming an invisible force of restriction, which shattered the firebird. The power was about the level of the early Core Formation stage.
“It seems that this secret realm is severely damaged. Currently, the power of the restriction is only at the Core Formation level. It is estimated that at most cultivators in the early Core Formation stage can enter, otherwise, it will easily lead to the collapse of the secret realm.”
Hong Lian, as a Nascent Soul True Monarch in her previous life and the master of a palace, had come into contact with many secret realm ruins and knew how to identify the situation of a secret realm.
“At most cultivators in the early Core Formation stage can enter?”
Lu Changsheng frowned, wouldn’t that mean he couldn’t enter either?
However, after cultivating immortality for so many years, he also knew that not all secret realms possessed opportunities.
In many secret realms, due to the passage of time, only a barren land remained, which could collapse at any time.
Even as soon as a cultivator stepped into it, the secret realm space would directly collapse, turning into nothingness and fragments, and scattering in the void.
Only a few secret realms contained opportunities and inheritances and were relatively stable.
Being able to accommodate Core Formation cultivators to enter was already very good.
Like the Purple Nether Secret Realm in its early years, it could only accommodate Qi Refining cultivators to enter.
“Hong Lian, can you tell what kind of secret realm this is?”
Lu Changsheng asked Hong Lian.
If it was just a barren secret realm that was about to collapse, then it would not be of much significance.
“Husband, wait a moment, let me take a look.”
Hong Lian formed hand seals, her eyes flowing with crimson light, and cast spells towards the crystal of the stone cliff in front.
It could be seen that under the influence of the spells, the picture reflected by the crystal of the cliff flowed like a hazy mist.
After a moment, Hong Lian pondered and said, “It looks a bit like a medicine garden secret realm, but I can’t know the specific situation now. I have to wait until the secret realm’s restrictions completely dissipate before I can further investigate.”
“But the stone cliff in front of us is not very stable. If we forcefully break the restrictions, it will easily affect the stability of the secret realm, which would not be worth the loss.”
Hong Lian, dressed in a gorgeous dress, with a slender and peerless figure, constantly sized up the stone cliff in front of her and spoke.
“Medicine garden secret realm!?”
Lu Changsheng’s expression was delighted.
According to what he had learned over the years, the reason why the Four Great Immortal Sects could stand tall and steadily cultivate Foundation Establishment and Core Formation cultivators was that they possessed several independent secret realms.
Among them, the most important were the Trial Secret Realm and the Medicine Garden Secret Realm!
The Trial Secret Realm could be used for trials and to screen the situation of disciples. Secret realms like the Purple Nether Secret Realm and the Azure Underworld Secret Realm belonged to this category.
The Medicine Garden Secret Realm was an environment suitable for planting spiritual plants and herbs, which could shorten the maturation time of spiritual herbs, or plant and cultivate some rare spiritual herbs and mutated seeds.
Therefore, a stable Medicine Garden Secret Realm was regarded by the sect forces as the starting point of their eternal foundation!
Although the Lu family had a Sumeru Grotto-Heaven to cultivate spiritual herbs, the effect was not ideal. It mainly relied on the [Myriad Spirit Bottle].
But the Myriad Spirit Bottle only produced one drop of Myriad Spirit Soaring Dew a year, which was not enough at all.
If he could possess a Medicine Garden Secret Realm, he could plant all the [Golden Armor Bean Mother], [Nourishing Spirit Lotus], [Heavenly Yuan Treasure Lotus], [Coiling Dragon Blood Tooth Rice], [Divine Power Fruit Tree], [Five Elements Spiritual Fruit Tree] that Lu Changsheng had obtained from the lottery over the years, as well as the spiritual plants he had harvested outside.
“It just looks a bit similar, and it can’t be ruled out that it’s a relic secret realm.”
Hong Lian said this.
The relic secret realm was the most common type of secret realm. Secret realms like the Heavenly Yuan Secret Realm and the Mirage Domain of the Shifting Sands belonged to this type.
However, the Purple Nether Secret Realm could also be called a relic secret realm.
It’s just that the Four Great Immortal Sects had already plundered and developed it long ago, so it’s used as a trial secret realm and a medicine garden secret realm to temper their own disciples.
“Hehe, in any case, as long as it’s not a desolate secret realm that is about to collapse.”
Lu Changsheng already regards the secret realm in front of him as his own first secret realm.
So the requirements are not very high, and he feels that it is almost enough.
“When this secret realm is born, the divine light will soar into the sky, I’m afraid it will not be able to hide it from the Four Great Immortal Sects.”
Honglian continued to say to Lu Changsheng, wanting to see what his opinion was.
“Since this secret realm appeared in the Great Dream Marsh, it naturally belongs to our Great Dream Immortal City.”
Lu Changsheng smiled lightly, his calm and indifferent words filled with a domineering and confident aura.
In the early years, when the Qingyun Sect and the Luoxia Sect discovered the Tianyuan Secret Realm, they needed to share it equally with the Four Great Immortal Sects, but his Great Dream Immortal City did not need to.
Of course, he still adheres to the idea of mutual benefit, mutual benefit, and win-win cooperation.
As long as the Four Great Immortal Sects are willing to give benefits, it doesn’t matter if some of the secret realm is divided.
The most ⊥ new ⊥ small ⊥ say ⊥ is ⊥ at ⊥ six ⊥ 9 ⊥ ⊥ book ⊥ ⊥ bar ⊥ ⊥ first ⊥ post!
“Spirit Whale, you just stay here and watch the secret realm, don’t touch it, if anyone comes, just drive them away.”
Lu Changsheng looked at the Fissure Sea Profound Dragon Whale, signaling it to guard here.
“Okay, Master.”
The Fissure Sea Profound Dragon Whale had no objection and chose to sleep here.
It has been promoted to the fourth rank, but it has not completely completed the transformation.
Immediately, Lu Changsheng gently raised his palm, and the Demon Binding Lock that bound the quasi-fourth-order Whale King fell from the tail of the Fissure Sea Profound Dragon Whale into his hand, dragging this Whale King, who was like a small mountain, back to the Great Dream Immortal City.
“When I have time, I should also create a few fourth-order spirit beast bags and spirit beast rings.”
Although Lu Changsheng can use great magic power to imprison and capture the Demon King, under normal circumstances, one is the limit, and it will continue to consume mana.
The spirit pet bag, Qiankun Shu Ying belt, Phaseless Treasure Wheel, and Tianyuan Treasure Emperor Lotus on his body can accommodate many things and monster beast corpses.
However, it is somewhat difficult to accommodate demon kings like whale sharks with excessive body sizes, which will cause a serious burden.
When the secret realm was born, the divine light soared into the sky, and cultivators kept rushing to check it out.
However, the Fissure Sea Profound Dragon Whale coiled beside the secret realm, and the aura of the Demon King, which was as deep as an abyss, permeated, causing all cultivators and demon beasts to dare not approach.
And Lu Changsheng and Honglian dragged a quasi-fourth-order Whale King back to the Great Dream Immortal City, which also aroused suspicion and horror among many cultivators along the way.
“What’s going on!”
“It’s City Lord and the City Lord’s wife!”
“Is City Lord going to the Great Dream Marsh to hunt demon kings?”
“Could it be that the soaring divine light in the depths of the Great Dream Marsh is related to City Lord?”
All the cultivators who saw Lu Changsheng dragging the quasi-fourth-order Whale King showed respectful expressions, and then guessed in their hearts.
After returning to the Great Dream Immortal City, Lu Changsheng used the Immortal City’s third-order forbidden array to directly suppress this Whale King under the Immortal City for captive breeding, and then entered the City Lord’s Mansion to tell Ling Zixiao about the secret realm.
“The secret realm has appeared?”
Ling Zixiao knew about the soaring divine light in the depths of the Great Dream Marsh, which was suspected to be the birth of a chance treasure, and had already sent people to check it, but no news had returned yet.
Hearing this, she immediately took measures.
Before long, the news that the City Lord and the City Lord’s wife went to the depths of the Great Dream Marsh to hunt demon kings, which led to the appearance of a secret realm of opportunity, spread instantly in the Great Dream Immortal City, causing a stir.
Although through this news, everyone knew that the secret realm had an owner and belonged to the City Lord’s Mansion, there was never a shortage of bold people in the world of cultivating immortals.
Many cultivators went to the depths of the Great Dream Marsh as soon as possible, wanting to see what the situation of the secret realm was and whether they could obtain opportunities and treasures.
“Dad, I heard that there is a secret realm of opportunity in the depths of the Great Dream Marsh, what’s the situation?”
Lu Wangshu heard the news of the birth of the secret realm, and immediately became interested, and came to the City Lord’s Mansion to ask Lu Changsheng.
“The restriction of the secret realm has not dissipated yet, and I don’t know the specific situation. If you are interested, you can go and take a look later.”
Lu Changsheng didn’t know what his daughter was thinking, and said with a smile.
According to Honglian, only cultivators in the early stage of Core Formation can enter the secret realm at most, otherwise it will easily affect stability.
If it is determined that there is no problem with the secret realm and it will not collapse, naturally the children in the family will go in to explore.
“Okay.”
Lu Wangshu was very interested in this kind of secret realm, and then asked about the Fissure Sea Profound Dragon Whale.
She knew that her old man did not go to the depths of the Great Dream Marsh to hunt demons, but to help the Fissure Sea Profound Dragon Whale to overcome the tribulation.
“Naturally it has passed, you will be able to see it later.”
Lu Changsheng said that the Fissure Sea Profound Dragon Whale is now guarding the secret realm and has not returned.
Immediately, he gave Lu Wangshu a gourd containing Flood Dragon essence blood, signaling her to send it to Dragon Fish Island.
Then he came to the back hall to deal with the dissected remains of the fourth-order Flood Dragon King.
Although the corpse of this Flood Dragon King was given to the Golden Winged Roc.
However, the Flood Dragon’s whole body is a treasure. Dragon claws, dragon tendons, dragon scales, and skeletons are all good fourth-order materials. Naturally, they must be dealt with, and it is impossible for the Golden Winged Roc to ruin them.
At this moment, Lu Changsheng suddenly felt a pure mana pouring into his Qi Sea Dantian out of thin air.
“Has Ping’an broken through?”
As his son Lu Quanzhen broke through the second level of Core Formation, his son Lu Qingshan and daughter Nangong Yaoyao also successively broke through.
So at this time, Lu Changsheng subconsciously thought of his son Lu Pingan, who was practicing at home.
But with the previous experience, he felt that this mana was not quite right, not like the first level of Core Formation breaking through to the second level.
With a slight thought.
[Name: Lu Pingan]
[Lifespan: 103 / 607]
[Talent: Fourth-Rank Spiritual Root, Undying Golden Body (Superior Spiritual Body)]
[Cultivation: First Level of Core Formation]
[Talent: Body Refining Compatibility (112%)]
“Not Ping’an?”
Lu Changsheng frowned slightly, and looked at his son Lu Quanzhen again.
[Name: Lu Quanzhen]
[Lifespan: 100 / 346]
[Talent: Fourth-Rank Spiritual Root, Kunpeng Demon Body (Superior Spiritual Body)]
[Cultivation: Third Level of Core Formation]
[Talent: Fighting Compatibility (83%)]
“Quanzhen has broken through the third level of Core Formation?”
Lu Changsheng remembered that his son Lu Quanzhen broke through the second level of Core Formation four years ago.
Even if he doesn’t spend time on magical powers and magic weapons now, and can concentrate on cultivation, this speed is still a bit too fast.
After all, his son Lu Quanzhen’s spiritual root is only fourth-rank.
“It seems that Quanzhen has a good opportunity.”
In addition to normal cultivation, being able to break through so quickly naturally means obtaining a good opportunity, top-quality natural treasures, and heaven and earth spiritual medicines.
And his son’s lifespan is not affected, so Lu Changsheng is very relieved.
Moreover, he gave Lu Quanzhen a quasi-fourth-order substitute talisman back then.
It can be said that as long as he doesn’t encounter Nascent Soul cultivators or top-level Core Formation cultivators, the latter can escape.
Kunpeng Nest.
Among a spiritual pool filled with steaming mist, radiant light, and fragrance.
Lu Quanzhen sat cross-legged in it, surrounded by Kunpeng phantoms, constantly refining the glistening liquid. His whole body was crystal clear, constantly nourished, as if he was undergoing a transformation.
After a long time, his body crackled, like a snake shedding its skin, a cicada shedding its shell, and very domineeringly discharged a layer of old skin, mixed blood, and even bone fragments from his body. His physical body broke through to the quasi-third order.
The moment Lu Quanzhen opened his eyes, it was like two dark and deep black holes, which were daunting, but soon became peaceful again, returning to simplicity. He looked at the Wugu Old Demon and the Stone Sea True Monarch not far away, and cupped his hands and said: “Thank you two seniors.”
“Hehe, since I brought you in, I will naturally not give you less benefits.”
Wugu Old Demon has a thin body, and his cheeks with high cheekbones give people a feeling of smiling but not laughing.
“Tsk, you kid have good perseverance. You can do this kind of domineering body refining technique without saying a word.”
Compared to Wugu Old Demon, the Stone Sea True Monarch next to him is much more gentle, giving Lu Quanzhen a friendly feeling.
He continued to speak: “Let’s go, time is running out. If you can help this seat obtain the core opportunity, this [Nascent Soul Pill] will belong to you. Even if you are a true disciple of the Heavenly Demon Sect, it is not easy to obtain the Nascent Soul Pill.”
Between the words, a porcelain bottle appeared in the palm of the Stone Sea True Monarch.
Even though Lu Quanzhen knew that the two of them could not be so kind, once they obtained the core opportunity, there was a high probability that they would kill themselves to silence them, but seeing the porcelain bottle in the Stone Sea True Monarch’s hand, his heart could not help but throb.
Nascent Soul Pill can help Core Formation cultivators more smoothly break the core and transform into a Nascent Soul True Monarch!
In Jiang State, and even in Xingxiu Sea these years, he had never heard of the appearance of a Nascent Soul Pill anywhere.
Unexpectedly, the Stone Sea True Monarch actually had one in his hand!
“Thank you, Senior!”
Even though Lu Quanzhen did not have any expectations, he still said with a look of joy and excitement.
The Wugu Old Demon next to him looked at this scene, and then looked at the porcelain bottle in the Stone Sea True Monarch’s hand, just sneered and said nothing.
