Chapter 24: Dragon Ball, Divine Ruins
"After eating so many snakes, the dragon balls in its body should be about to condense!"
By the waterhole, the four of them had their own thoughts, either to help or connive, to promote the evolution of this sea dragon cucumber. When all the snake corpses by the waterhole were swept down, Ma Buqi suddenly said.
"Dragon Balls! The purpose of the Ma brothers is Dragon Balls! What do they want Dragon Balls for?"
Hearing Ma Buyi's words, this thought appeared in the hearts of Lu Sheng and Wan Gu Xiao at the same time.
Dragon Ball has an extremely powerful power that can be absorbed directly. But the Ma family brothers are just great martial arts cultivators, and they don't need to absorb so much power.
Besides, with their abilities, they can't directly absorb the Dragon Balls.
"Could it be that Ma Qianli's cultivation has improved, and he urgently needs to replenish his strength?"
Wan Gu Xiao thought in his heart. Ma Qianli is the current great master of the Ma family, and he is exactly two hundred years old this year. At this age, there is indeed the possibility of a breakthrough in cultivation, and many great masters have made breakthroughs at this time!
Thinking in his heart, Wan Gu Xiao did not ask directly, but said:
"Maybe it's soon, maybe it's a little bit closer. If you throw the snake corpses in the surrounding passages, it will be faster!"
With a suggestion in his mouth, Wan Gu Xiao didn't have the slightest intention of acting, but stared at the waterhole tightly, observing the movement inside.
As for Lu Sheng, he was still clinging to the formation with his hands, as if he was accumulating strength for the formation.
Hearing Wan Gu Xiao's words, and seeing the movements of the two again, Ma Buyu didn't know the meaning. Anger surged for a while, and he was about to take the opportunity to attack, but he heard Ma Buting say:
"Second brother, the two of them can't leave, you go and push the snake corpse over there, and I'll throw it in!"
There are four people in three parties, and only two of them have them. When the other two parties are reluctant to leave the waterhole, they are the only ones who can divide their hands and push the snake corpse over!
Ma Buyu naturally knew this truth, and what happened just now, he was more to test the two of them.
It's just that Wan Gu Xiao was treacherous, and Lu Sheng was silent, so he couldn't find anything.
"Boy, be careful this time. β
"If you don't wait for the Dragon Ball to take shape, you must not launch the formation. β
"If you lose the Dragon Ball, be careful of your dog's life!"
With a cold snort, Ma Bu said. Exposing the need for Dragon Ball on his side is also a last resort for him. If Lu Sheng launched the formation before the Dragon Ball was formed, they would have missed this opportunity.
And if you miss this opportunity in front of you, you don't know when it will be next time. With their strength, if they want to get a fourth-order dragon ball, it may not be possible for a lifetime!
After speaking, Ma Buyu looked at Lu Sheng and Wan Gu Xiao for a while, and saw that neither of them seemed to have any objections, so he walked to the back, pushed the snake corpse in the passage, and piled it in front of Ma Buting.
Staring at the waterhole, Ma Buting threw these snake corpses down little by little, waiting for the Dragon Ball to take shape!
------------
"Dragon Ball!"
Thinking about Ma Buyi's words, Lu Sheng mobilized his spirit of 21.78 after a threefold increase, and pondered why the Ma brothers needed this.
"The power of the Fourth-Order Dragon Ball can only be directly absorbed by the Grand Grandmaster. Below the Grand Master, it needs to be refined with a special technique before it can absorb its power. β
"The Ma family brothers are not Dan masters, so they shouldn't know how to refine the method, and they can't use the Dragon Balls. β
"As for the Great Grandmaster, although the Ma family has the Great Grandmaster Ma Qianli, as far as I know, the Ma family brothers have been on Longsang Island for the past few years, and they have no connection with the Xiliang Ma Clan. β
"This dragon ball doesn't look like it's for Ma Qianli!"
Lu Sheng thought to himself. Longsang Island and Black Rock Island are very close to each other, and exchanges are quite frequent. Not to mention, his fourth aunt, Sang Siniang, was also accepted as a concubine by Ma Buqiu.
In this way, he knows more about the news of the Ma family brothers.
"According to Sang Siniang, the Ma brothers seem to have a treasure that they took from a master of the earth list when they were exploring in the ruins. β
"Ma Buting's injury is related to this. β
"And the reason why the Ma brothers came to Longsang Island out of the Shenru seems to be related to that treasure. β
Some people even say that these two appeared out of thin air. The interval between the time of appearance and the opening time of the ruins is also very short. β
------------
The Divine Ruins is an extremely magical place, with all kinds of magical artifacts inside.
It is even rumored that it was once the dwelling place of the man of God. The utensils inside were also left behind after the gods discarded them.
Although this legend has not been confirmed, no one has objected to it either.
Over time, that place became known as the Divine Ruins.
"The Divine Ruins are near Kaminarimon Island in the South China Sea, and to enter it, you need to pass through Kaminarimon. β
"Every sixty years, the power of Kaminarimon is minimized. At this time, with the power of the five great grandmasters, the Thunder Gate can be opened and people can enter the Divine Ruins. β
"In half a year or so, Kaminarimon's power will increase again. Before that, the five Grand Masters will work together to open the Thunder Gate again and let the people who enter the Divine Ruins come out. β
"The last time the Shenxu was opened was in the year 920 of the Great Jingli calendar, which has been five ...... No, it's six years!"
After staying in the snake cave for more than two months, before I knew it, the New Year had passed, and the time had come to the year 926 of the Great Jingli -
Today's Lu Sheng is 16 years old!
------------
"When the Ma brothers first appeared on Longsang Island, there was a short interval between the opening time of the Shenxu Market. β
"From the point of view of time, it is simply not enough for the two great martial artists to arrive on Longsang Island from Kaminarimon Island. β
"It is rumored that the Ma brothers used a treasure to descend directly to Longsang Island. β
"Perhaps, because I was sure that I escaped with that treasure after capturing the Dragon Ballβ"
"The Ma brothers dare to take such a risk!"
Lu Sheng thought in his heart. As far as he knows, the Ma brothers are all extremely life-loving people. Even if the great grandmaster of the Ma family needed the Dragon Balls, they would not necessarily fight with their lives to take them.
Only when they have the certainty of escaping for their lives will they be willing to take the risk and stay here to capture the Dragon Ball.
"Even, that treasure has something to do with Dragon Ball. β
"Maybe you can easily take the Dragon Ball, maybe you can use the power of the Dragon Ball-"
"That would explain why the two of them hadn't used the treasure all along;"
"It can also explain why they got the Dragon Balls!"
Lu Sheng thought to himself. As a local, he knew much more about the Ma brothers than Wan Guxiao. Only then did he use his strong spirit to speculate on some of the motives of the Ma brothers.
------------
"I just don't know, what is that treasure?"
"Shenxu, it's really a wonderful place!"
Whether it is the treasure that the Ma family brothers may have, or the inheritance stone that Lu Sheng received a few days ago, they are all from the Divine Ruins.
Even, the Hun Yuan Gong he cultivated was only realized by Emperor Jing when he got a furnace from the Divine Ruins.
And his great-ancestor Lu Quan, also because of entering the Divine Ruins, never returned after leaving Blackstone Island......
These legends have intensified Lu Sheng's yearning for the Divine Ruins:
"I'd love to go inside!"
Lu Sheng sighed in his heart. It's just that there are still fifty-four years before the next opening of the Divine Ruins, and he can only continue to wait!
