Chapter 215: Fate

The South China Sea is vast, I don't know tens of thousands of miles, and people in it are like a drop in the ocean, very small.

Zhao Lingtai and Lu Shanjun walked and stopped, but they seemed to be at ease, but fortunately, there are many islands in the sea, and every time they fly, they can find a place to settle down and rest.

Lu Shanjun and the others have completely changed their opinion of Zhao Lingtai, treating him as a certain desolate alien species, and they all have some flattering meaning when they talk.

Zhao Lingtai knew in his heart that he would not break it.

I really don't know if I don't come, I am shocked when I come, above this sea area, there is a world of its own. Compared to land, it is not far behind. Most of them are aquarium monsters, and they have cave courtyards on the island, but their main nests are in the deep sea.

Those places are not just accessible to you. It is necessary to have the magic power to resist water, and with the help of water beads, or ride on water shelter beasts and the like, you can enter freely. Otherwise, even the earth fairy will drown in the water, and it will become a joke.

In the vast ocean, there are too many dangerous things.

On the way, Zhao Lingtai had the heart to inquire and got a lot of information about the demon clan. Part of it is about the Dragon King.

There are four major regions in the fairy realm, and according to geography, it is divided into four seas, and there are four dragon kings.

The dragon clan has been noble since ancient times and is known as the king of all demons, but after arriving in the fairy realm, something happened. The main reason is that the bloodline has degraded so much that it has become mottled and impure, and gradually its influence has been concentrated in the sea world, and its influence on the land is decreasing day by day.

Some people say that this is fairness under the way of heaven. After all, dragons are born with too many benefits, longevity, a strong body, and many powerful talents, if the same is true in other aspects, then there is nothing else to do.

It is a proverb: a dragon gives birth to nine sons, and the sons are different.

Why?

The main reason is that it is difficult to maintain the reproduction and continuation of pure breeds, the blood is mixed, and the offspring born are naturally different in shape and appearance, in an ugly phrase, called "hybridization".

The weakness of the bloodline has greatly reduced the strength of the dragon clan, and the current four dragon kings are purebred, but they have all survived for a long time, and they have already entered the twilight stage, and their sharpness has been lost, and they are content to just think that they can safely and securely defend the four seas.

According to the dragon king's plan, they want to make the entire water tribe independent and have its own gateway like the Western world.

But this idea is destined to be unrealized.

On the one hand, the demon clan resists this. They are all different kinds of monasticism, they are one, you are good, you have to set up your own door, guard the sea to live, and the same people on the shore do not care whether they are dead or alive, it is really not benevolent and righteous.

On the other hand, the Terrans did not agree either. Needless to say, the Xuanqiong Immortal Emperor is to rule the entire Immortal Domain, come out of a Western world, and sit on an equal footing, that is no way, the Buddha is powerful, there is Dao Bao Town's luck, it has risen, and it cannot be stifled, as long as the alliance is carried out, the two feet stand side by side. But if you dragon king still want to do this, it's impossible.

Under the attack from both sides, the life of the dragon king was not easy. His ideas have always been inconsistent with the demon king on the Dongsheng Divine Continent, and the heavenly court has given a lot of benefits, and his position and attitude have gradually turned over.

Of course, these are all things that are chasing after the wind and shadows, and there is no real evidence yet.

Even so, it was enough to annoy the demon kings of Dongsheng Divine Continent. The demon clan was already at a disadvantage, and if the Dragon King really had to defect, it would be a really heavy blow.

Speaking of these, Lu Shanjun looked worried. It is a matter of the overall situation of the race, once it is completely defeated, the good days of the demon race will come to an end.

After listening to this, Zhao Lingtai felt that the current situation of the demon clan was really not easy. The Western world is chanting scriptures day and night to transform the demon race, the heavenly court is constantly dispatching troops and gathering troops, and there are four dragon kings in the middle who may defect at any time......

As a result, there is a situation where black clouds are overwhelming the city and want to destroy it, and it seems that the outbreak of the big war is not far away.

This does not bode well.

After all, what Zhao Lingtai needs most is time, in the immortal realm, countless people are looking for him, once his identity is revealed, with his current realm, any struggle will be in vain.

It's just that this trip has been two or three months, and there is no chance at all, just to travel east and west and see the customs.

Could it be that on a whim, something went wrong?

Probably not, how important is this opportunity, where can you come out and encounter it, and it's not a blind cat that touches a dead mouse, not so good luck. And for a monk, a few months is no different than a few days.

Thinking about it, Zhao Lingtai gradually relaxed, and no longer deliberately thought about this matter.

He was anxious, and Lu Shanjun was even worse. They had come for the treasure, but there was no clue in the haystack, and they gradually became a little disheartened and wanted to go back. The main thing is that I am not used to it, and I am not used to life and diet in all aspects.

In the sea world, the rules are quite different from those on land. Besides, this is the land of the dragon king, and a few big demons don't dare to mess around, for fear of touching the mold, then there will be no place to die - directly feed the fish in the sea.

There are many constraints, and even eating a meal of meat has to find a remote place to start, which is a kind of torture for the big demon. And wandering aimlessly, it's so pointless and a waste of time.

Besides, in this world, they don't have many friends and friends, except for the old turtle, the other water tribe demons basically don't have much friendship.

There is no friendship, there is no hospitality, and it is very uncomfortable.

Lu Shanjun and the bull demon privately summed up, turned around for two more days, and went back without finding out.

On this day, several settled on a deserted island.

Lu Shanjun said: "Zhao Daoyou, it's been a long time since I came out, I'm worried that something will happen at home, I'm afraid I have to go back, you see?"

When Zhao Lingtai heard it, he knew what it meant and groaned.

Lu Shanjun said again: "This water world, don't become heaven and earth, go too deep and too far, I don't know the path." I think the sea here is quite strange, and it is likely that it is near the Dragon Palace. The Dragon King of the South China Sea is not as good at talking as the Divine Ape King, and if he commits a taboo, it is difficult to say. ”

Zhao Lingtai nodded: "It's okay, just listen to Lu Daoyou." ”

He has nothing to do, anyway, no one can say the specific direction.

Lu Shanjun said with a smile: "Then rest here tonight and go back early tomorrow morning." ”

There are beasts on the island, but the vitality is thin, this kind of meat, a few big demons look down on it, eat too much, but will deposit residues, which hinders cultivation.

In the final analysis, this situation was made by the dragon king, who controlled the sea area, set up a formation, locked a lot of vitality, and hid it in the sea, making it difficult to escape. As for the vitality on the island, it naturally seems to be thin and unbearable, but it is okay in the shallow sea area, and the deeper it goes, the more serious it is in the area near the Dragon Palace. On the island where he was at the moment, the vitality was already as shallow as the immortal gate in the world.

It was when he discovered this that Lu Shanjun was worried, thinking that he had gone too deep, and he had already reached the vicinity of the Dragon Palace, so he had to stop and go home.

Of course, this "nearby" has different meanings in different geographical areas. Like a huge sea area, if you say a neighborhood, at least it has to be more than a thousand miles away.

It was night, the fog was very large, filling the whole island, and looking at the past, the sea was foggy and gray.

Several big demons sat cross-legged and listened to Zhao Lingtai's preaching.

In terms of cultivation, they are all earth immortals, and the cultivation time of the big demons is much longer, and after precipitation, their strength is superior. However, in terms of Taoism, in front of Zhao Lingtai, they all became "apprentices", listening attentively and very seriously. In fact, it is because of this lesson that they are reluctant to go.

Since immersing himself in the "Corpse Sutra", Zhao Lingtai has reached a rather good point on this road.

He was originally a human body, but he was demoted to a dog, and then turned into a demon body. This kind of experience is simply incredible, so it has created such an alternative.

After cutting off the demon, Zhao Lingtai was reborn once, even if the great realm did not keep up, his foundation was one in ten thousand.

This is the reason why Shushan Sword Ancestor is optimistic about him.

Over the past 10,000 years, people's cultivation path has been in an orderly manner and a system has been formed. But the path taken by Zhao Lingtai is tantamount to finding another way and opening a new entrance.

The "Corpse Cutting Sutra" obtained from the bone demon is the authentic original, and his unique personal understanding makes the scripture have a subtle change, closer to the bearing of the "Tao".

Anything that has something to do with the Tao is extremely precious.

Zhao Lingtai is willing to teach, but Lu Shanjun and others can't ask for it. After listening to it once, I feel that I have benefited a lot.

This is also good for Zhao Lingtai, he is not a serious lecture, but he just said some fragmentary opinions, as well as a little opinion, all from the position of the demon clan. And the perception that really belongs to his personal Taoism did not say much, not because he was hiding his secrets, but because he couldn't say it well. It's not suitable for Lu Shanjun and them, these are all pure demons, how can they slash the demon body, it's hard to start refining. What they want to cut is the clone they have trained, and they can cut off a total of nine bodies, and finally ninety-nine will be one, and the road of achievement will be achieved. But the average big demon will cut four or five clones, and it will encounter a bottleneck, and it will be difficult to break through.

The Tao is an inherently adaptable thing. Everyone is different, and the opportunities are different.

However, the fur that Zhao Lingtai regarded as fell into the ears of Lu Shanjun and others, and it was treasured. Invisibly, it is fulfilling Zhao Lingtai's little education.

As he was talking, there was a sudden sound of drumming on the other side of the sea, which sounded abruptly.

Zhao Lingtai stopped and looked up.

Lu Shanjun's face changed greatly, Huo Ran got up, and said in unison: "This is the joy of the Dragon Palace, someone from the Dragon Palace is here." ”

For a while, I didn't feel how frightened, but I was more puzzled. This island is quite barren, why did the Dragon Palace come to people.

In the sound of drums, a team of honor guards appeared on the sea in front of them, with glass lights, reflecting brightly, showing flags, horses, vehicles, etc.

It seems that there are more than 100 water tribes, which are vast.

Lu Shanjun's face is even more ugly, looking at the other party's formation, it can be seen that the status of the comer is not low, one is not good, there is a dragon son and a dragon girl or something. Few of these dragon descendants have a good temper and are very irritable.

Several big demons glanced at each other, and they had a plan in their hearts. After all, they are both demon clans, and they won't be too rude to think about each other.

Soon, the honor guard walked onto the island, and the leader was a maid in green clothes, not very completely humanoid, with a layer of shiny scales on her forehead, her eyes flowing, looking at Zhao Lingtai and others.

Lu Shanjun walked out and said politely: "We are from the country of God, we will settle down here and leave early tomorrow morning." ”

The maid in Tsing Yi ignored it, looked around, and finally fixed on Zhao Lingtai, Yingying was blessed: "This son is invited." ”

Zhao Lingtai returned the salute, and he already had some bad thoughts in his heart.

The maid in Tsing Yi said: "My turtle is a good minister, and there is a destined person here for the performance, so he specially ordered me to invite him and invite you to the Dragon Palace." ”

Hearing this, Lu Shanjun and the others all showed envy, and this time, they had a clearer understanding of Zhao Lingtai's identity: no matter what the ontology is, it is absolutely extraordinary anyway, and it can be favored by the dragon clan.

After thinking about it again, the other party was polite, and the meaning of his words was that he dared to recruit his son-in-law.

Marrying a daughter in the Dragon Palace, the winner will become a fast son-in-law of the dragon, I don't know how many big demons dream it. The dragon female personality may be a little arrogant, but with the background of the Dragon Palace, she can endure it. As a colt, soaring into the sky, countless resources, everything.

In fact, the matter of the Dragon Palace recruiting horses is not uncommon among the demon clan, there have been rumors for a long time, and there are some successful examples.

Originally, in order to maintain the pure inheritance of the bloodline, the dragon clan generally only marries between the same clan, but the members are scarce, and among the offspring, nine times out of ten are close relatives. In desperation, both male and female, they all went outside to find a good match. What can be looked at is extraordinary.

Lu Shanjun also had such a dream, marrying a dragon girl, and fighting for thousands of years, but just think about it. With his bloodline, the Dragon Palace can't look down on it.

I never thought that I met it tonight, but unfortunately the person who the other party said was Zhao Lingtai.

Zhao Lingtai complained bitterly in his heart, he didn't want to be a horse in the Dragon Palace, there was a dragon and a crouching tiger in the Dragon Palace, especially in the face of the Dragon King, he was worried that he would show his feet. It's just that if you refuse not to go, I'm afraid it's hard to watch the other party's battle.

Thinking of the turtle prime minister, nine times out of ten he has a blood relationship with the old turtle, natal talent, good at divination and deduction, it seems that he is obviously much more powerful than the old turtle, and he can calculate that he is destined to come. But this is also normal, you can be the prime minister in the Dragon Palace, how can you wait for an idle person.

After pondering for a moment, he turned his head and asked Lu Shanjun: "Fellow Daoists, are you willing to go to the Dragon Palace with me?"

As he spoke, he asked the maid in Tsing Yi with a smile: "Can they go together?"

The maid in Tsing Yi said: "If you are willing, you are naturally welcome." ”

Lu Shanjun glanced at each other, to be honest, they also wanted to go to the Dragon Palace to see it, but there was some awe in their hearts after all. Thinking of the rumored relationship between the Dragon King and the Heavenly Court, then if they go to the Dragon Palace, it is inevitable that there will be some tricky causes and effects.

So he made up his mind, and Lu Shanjun stepped forward and said: "Zhao Daoyou, we won't follow, we have to return to the country of God to deal with some affairs." ”

Zhao Lingtai was informed of this, sighed secretly, and remained silent on the surface: "So, then don't pass it here." ”

"Childe, please. ”

The maid in Tsing Yi brought a steed, much taller than the usual horse, with scales on its body, and it was a dragon horse with blood.

Zhao Lingtai had no choice but to ride on his horse.

The guard of honor walked around and headed out to sea.

Ryoma is good at water, and entering the water is like walking on the ground, without any obstacles.

Zhao Lingtai was full of thoughts, but he was not afraid, he had the money as his hole card, it was really bad, and he had the opportunity to hide.

The guard of honor entered the sea, the drum music disappeared, and Lu Shanjun was still standing on the island, stunned.

After a while, the bull demon asked in a low voice: "Where did this Zhao Daoyou come from, he actually won the favor of the Dragon Palace, and if we go with us, we may be able to meet some opportunities." ”

Xiong Bojun sneered: "Then why don't you go?"

The bull demon was stunned and touched his huge nose: "You don't go, what's the point of me going?"

Lu Shanjun sighed: "The Dragon Palace and the Heavenly Court are close, this matter has already spread, if we go to the Dragon Palace, it will inevitably arouse suspicion." ”

The bull demon asked: "Then Zhao Daoyou is not afraid?"

Lu Shanjun glared: "What is the way people come from? Besides, the invitation of the Dragon Palace is not so easy to refuse, and when you get to this place, how can you leave if you provoke the Dragon King to be angry?"

Xiong Bojun spread his hands: "Even so, you can't force people to be horses." ”

Lu Shanjun scoffed: "I don't have the slightest intention of resisting Zhao Daoyou, it's a good thing to be a fast son-in-law of Chenglong, what do you say?"

Xiong Bojun was silent, obviously agreeing, if the Dragon Palace said that the destined person was him, he would not hesitate.

Lu Shanjun said: "Speaking of which, this is still Zhao Daoyou's chance, if he doesn't come out with us, he won't encounter such a good thing." ”

The bull demon urn said angrily: "What do you say Zhao Daoyou's body is?

Lu Shanjun sighed: "No matter what it is, it is far from being comparable to you and me." However, we came out this time, and it was not without gains, and we had a lot of understanding, and we also got acquainted with Zhao Daoyou and had a favor. Let's not talk about this, let's go, and come back to God. ”

"Not waiting for tomorrow?"

"What are you waiting for, if you wait any longer, you will have to be invited by the Dragon Palace. ”

It's one thing to be a colt, but it's another thing to go to the Dragon Palace to sit with you.

Xiong Bojun and the bull demon didn't talk much, and together with Lu Shanjun, they drove the light and quickly disappeared into the vast night.
