Chapter 386: Arrival
For this trip, what Liu Nuhai prepared was not the carriage pulled by the snow-white wildebeest that Chen Shaofeng saw at the beginning, but a shuttle-shaped magic weapon. Although this magic weapon is only more than a zhang long, there are countless space formations engraved inside, so it is not a problem to accommodate one hundred and eighty people in the space inside.
According to Liu Nuhai's introduction, this shuttle-type magic weapon is called the shuttle boat, which is a long-distance flying instrument commonly used by major forces in the fairy world. Its speed is not below the eighth-level Immortal Monarch at all, its flexibility is also extremely strong, and its combat power and defense are very good, but the cost of this thing is extremely high, and generally slightly smaller families do not have the strength to build this thing. Moreover, the best immortal stones consumed by this thing are also a very large amount, so there are not many of this shuttle boats, except for the core members of the family who travel far away, they will generally never use this thing.
Of course, Liu Nuhai introduced all this just to let Chen Shaofeng know that Haiyun Pavilion valued him. Although Chen Shaofeng knew that the other party did this for a purpose, he also had to admit that he owed Haiyun Pavilion a lot of favors.
Chen Shaofeng is a person who knows how to repay his kindness, even if Haiyun Pavilion intends to favor him, Chen Shaofeng has to appreciate it. Therefore, for this kind of treatment that only family elders can enjoy, Chen Shaofeng also accepts it calmly.
The speed of the Suo Tianzhou was very fast, but the phoenix tree was not close to the West King City. Just along the way, more than 100 top-grade immortal stones were used, and it took more than half a year for Chen Shaofeng and Liu Nuhai to arrive at the location of the phoenix tree.
The location of the Phoenix Tree was originally a forest where brute beasts gathered, but since the discovery of the Phoenix Tree, the Jade Emperor Palace and Qingfeng Ridge have joined forces to sweep away the brute beasts here, and then established an extremely small town as quickly as possible.
This small town, named Phoenix, is nothing more than a magic weapon in the shape of a huge ancient city made of various precious magic weapon materials. Although this magic weapon can't match the beauty of those ancient cities left behind by ancient immortals, it is still possible to block certain brute beasts. In particular, there are two eighth-level immortal monarchs sitting here, which is a treatment that even large ancient cities can't get. However, the only drawback of this Phoenix City is that it is too small, and it can only accommodate 30,000 or 20,000 people when it is full.
A single phoenix tree can attract so much attention from the Jade Emperor Palace and Qingfeng Ridge, and it is obvious that the value of this Soul Flame is very huge. Some people may ask, although the number of phoenix divine beasts is small, but it is not none, why do you want to pay so much attention to the Resurrection Flame that is just a pseudo-nirvana fire?
The number of phoenixes is very small, but there are still a few in the fairy world. But the phoenix, like the dragon race, is an intelligent life with extremely high intelligence, and it is no worse than humans. Although the phoenix is born with Nirvana Fire, this Nirvana Fire is the same as the spiritual power cultivated by ordinary monks, although it can be regenerated, but after all, the number is limited. Think about it, with the arrogant character of the phoenix, how could they use their natal flame to refine the elixir or magic weapon for others, maybe some people use their feelings or pay a high price, maybe they can make some phoenixes do it once or twice once or twice. However, this can't last long after all, let alone ask Phoenix to use his natal fire to help others practice.
For example, Chen Shaofeng, the 'Melting Gold Devouring Fire Technique' he cultivated, one of which was to devour all kinds of heaven and earth spiritual flames to make himself evolve. However, which phoenix was willing to contribute its natal fire for Chen Shaofeng to devour it? Therefore, although the Nirvana Fire was powerful and not uncommon, there were very few people who could ask for the help of the other party. You must know that although the phoenix belongs to the demon clan, they live in an independent group, and they are very reluctant to interact with people, even if they are also divine beasts, they don't know where the phoenix habitat is. And the monks who can get acquainted with the phoenix are even rarer.
Entering Phoenix City, Chen Shaofeng entered an obviously heavily guarded manor under the leadership of Liu Nuhai. This manor is the location of the Phoenix Tree, which is the residence of the two Rank 8 Immortal Monarchs. As the existence of an eighth-level Immortal Monarch, Wang Yang from the Jade Emperor Palace and Ao Kuan from Qingfeng Ridge were respectively responsible for the safety of the Phoenix Tree, so they naturally sensed him as soon as Liu Nuhai entered the door.
"Brother Wang, Brother Ao, I haven't seen you for a long time, and your demeanor is even better than before!" Although they are both eighth-level Immortal Monarchs, the strength of Haiyun Pavilion is not as good as that of the Jade Emperor Palace and Qingfeng Ridge, so it also caused Liu Nuhai to show some weakness in front of Wang Yang and Ao Kuan.
"Hahaha, I'll just say that the breath is so familiar, it turns out that the three elders of Haiyun Pavilion have not seen each other for a long time, are you also very good!" Obviously, Haiyun Pavilion is subordinate to the forces of the Jade Emperor Palace, Wang Yang and Liu Nuhai are more familiar, but their words are a little arrogant. After all, except for the four super forces, the rest of the forces, large and small, are almost the same in their eyes.
"Liu Nuhai, hehe, I have long heard that Haiyun Pavilion Liu Nuhai is known as one of the top ten masters in the West King City, I remember that when I was ranked, it seems that I had defeated Li Yuanhong!"
As soon as Ao Kuan's words came out, not only Liu Nuhai's face was not good-looking, but even Wang Yang's face became embarrassed. At that time, they all belonged to several major families under the rule of the Jade Emperor Palace, and they didn't know which tendon was wrong, so they had to hold a martial arts competition, and everyone who participated in the competition was a cultivator of an eighth-level immortal monarch. Originally, this was just a matter of several major families in order to resolve some disputes, and there was a way to argue, but who would have thought that this matter would be known to the entire fairy world. And many other big forces also sent people over, they didn't come to compete, after all, this is a family matter under the rule of the Jade Emperor Palace, so they just came to watch the excitement and find out the details.
Originally, the Jade Emperor Palace, as one of the four super forces, naturally would not send people to participate in this kind of competition, but under the instigation of people with intentions, it was rumored that the strength of the Jade Palace was not as good as the strength of the family under its rule, or that the Jade Palace was afraid of embarrassment, etc. The troublesome Jade Palace had to send people to participate, and unfortunately, the Jade Palace sent four people to participate, but all four did not enter the finals.
Why? Because for the sake of face and the fairness of the game, the Jade Emperor Palace deliberately arranged a powerful illusion in the arena. So that both sides of the game do not know who their opponents are and which family they come from. The Jade Emperor Palace's practice is to prevent the outside world from deliberately giving in because they are afraid of the Jade Emperor's power. Therefore, the Jade Emperor Palace made great efforts to arrange this illusion.
However, the Jade Palace's approach this time has become a shooting of itself in the foot, and none of the four contestants entered the finals, not even the semi-finals. Who can blame this? Even if those eighth-level Immortal Monarchs in the Jade Emperor Palace were not promoted by Ling Yulu, they were all piled up with elixir. usually relies on the power of the Jade Emperor Palace, and has not personally participated in the battle for many years. It's like how can a domestic tiger and a wild tiger be of the same level? Therefore, when it comes to the top ten masters of the West King City, it is the shame of the Jade Emperor Palace. Therefore, under the rule of the entire Jade Emperor Palace, although there is such a ranking, but because of the face of the Jade Palace, this matter has become taboo, and no one dares to mention it.
And the Li Yuanhong mentioned by Ao Kuan was the person from the Jade Emperor Palace who participated in that game back then, and he was defeated in the hands of Liu Nuhai. Therefore, when Ao Kuan mentioned this matter, Liu Nuhai and Wang Yang's faces were naturally not good.
knew that Ao Kuan was mocking the Jade Emperor Palace when he said this, but Wang Yang was helpless. After all, Qingfeng Ridge is also one of the four super forces, and it is stronger than the Jade Emperor Palace. Especially what the other party said, he couldn't refute it, so he had to glare at Ao Kuan, turn around and leave on his own. Of course, even this Liu Nuhai was also glanced at by him.
Immortals fight, mortals suffer. This Ao Kuan and Wang Yang fought, and Liu Nuhai naturally suffered from the pond fish, but he couldn't provoke Wang Yang, and he couldn't provoke Ao Kuan. Who called these two people to have the Jade Emperor Palace and Qingfeng Ridge behind them?
"Ahem, Brother Ao, I'm here today for the Phoenix Tree, look 、、、"
Ao Kuan knew the agreement between the three families, and naturally knew that Haiyun Pavilion also had a certain right to distribute the Phoenix Tree. In addition, he also brought Liu Nuhai in just now, so he happily agreed to this matter. But before that, he still reminded Chen Shaofeng a few words.
"Boy, it's okay for you to go in and cultivate, but you have to be careful about some things, those two inside are not something you can offend, if you anger them, even Haiyun Pavilion won't be able to protect you!" In the end, Ao Kuan's essence is not bad, at least he still takes care of Chen Shaofeng.
"Ahem, can Brother Ao be a little more detailed?"
For this sentence, even if Chen Shaofeng is not nervous, Liu Nuhai is also very nervous, after all, the current Chen Shaofeng represents the future of Haiyun Pavilion, and his safety is above all else.
Ao Kuan also felt that his words were a little too much, and hurriedly said with a smile, "Actually, it's nothing, one of the two in it is the righteous daughter of the Dragon Emperor, and the other is a new disciple of the Jade Emperor." The two of them are loved by the two emperors, and it doesn't matter if there is any fight between them, if you kid get involved, it is estimated that things will not be easy to handle, understand?"
"Ah, Xiaofeng, it's better for us not to go in for the time being, let's go back when they finish cultivating!" Liu Nuhai was very nervous about Chen Shaofeng.
Chen Shaofeng thought about it, too, more things are better than less, but he still asked again, "Senior Ao, I don't know how long it will take for the two of them to cultivate before they can get out?"
"Is this, this 、、、, not good, maybe a year, maybe ten years, or even a hundred years! Let me tell you honestly, you see that Wang Yang and I are here, on the surface, we are guarding this place, but in fact, we are protecting the two inside!" Without Wang Yang on his side, Ao Kuan is still a very good talker.
"Since that's the case, then I'd better go in!" If it's okay for a short time, Chen Shaofeng can still wait, but the time is uncertain, Chen Shaofeng can't wait.
