Chapter 18: Dragon King Calculation, Dragon Palace Treasure Pavilion
"I don't know the Great Sage, if you want to ask Xiaolong any questions, Xiaolong must know everything, say everything, and try his best to help the Great Sage", the Dragon King of the East China Sea still asked with a smile on his face.
"Old neighbor, do you know the whereabouts of the Dinghai Divine Needle Ruyi Golden Hoop Stick? That was once the treasure of Zhenhai in your East China Sea Dragon Palace, I believe you should know where the Buddha put it, don't let me down", Zhou Yan asked.
"Ruyi golden hoop stick, this ...... Great Sage, let Xiaolong think about it", hearing that Zhou Yan just wanted to know the whereabouts of the Ruyi Golden Hoop Stick, the Dragon King of the East China Sea first breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, and then suddenly thought of something, his face turned pale, and his words dodged, as if he didn't know what to say.
"Old neighbor, think slowly, I'm not in a hurry, as long as you don't disappoint me, I'm sure you can remember, right?", Zhou Yan showed an expression on his face that seemed to be smiling, his eyes were staring at the Dragon King of the East China Sea, as if to say that if you let me down, then I will make you look good. Although the Dragon King of the East China Sea is the head of the Dragon Clan of the Four Seas, his cultivation is only in the Heavenly Immortal Realm, if he really fights, Zhou Yan is not afraid at all.
The somewhat pale face of the Dragon King of the East China Sea glanced at Zhou Yan, thought about it again and again, and after a while, a trace of sweat appeared on his forehead, he glanced around the hall, and shouted to the surrounding guards: "Now, everyone is going out for this king, and this king and the Great Sage have important matters to discuss." β
After waiting until the East China Sea Dragon King and Zhou Yan were left in the main hall, the East China Sea Dragon King waved his hand, and a dark blue mana enchantment was held up in the main hall, and after that, he gritted his teeth and said to Zhou Yan: "Great Sage, after you were suppressed by the Buddha at the foot of the Five Elements Mountain thousands of years ago, the Dinghai Divine Needle was taken away by Guanyin Bodhisattva in the South China Sea, and it was not returned to me to the East China Sea Dragon Palace. Later, when Xiaolong also went to the Purple Bamboo Forest in the South China Sea to ask for it, Guanyin Bodhisattva told Xiaolong that it was because of a certain place in the western region of the Shenzhou Continent for unknown reasons, which caused a crack between the Yin and Yang worlds, and the endless ghost qi of the Yin and Yang Underworld seeped into the human world from there, naturally forming a well of gods and demons that communicates the Yin and Yang worlds and can release the Yin ghost qi from the underworld.
Therefore, in order to prevent the sudden release of the Yin and Demonic Qi from the underworld from the Yin and Demons Well, which would destroy the balance of life and death between the Yin and Yang worlds, Guanyin Bodhisattva placed the Dinghai Divine Needle with a Dharma seal there to suppress the Well of Gods and Demons, which has been about three hundred years. Therefore, now the Dinghai Divine Needle should still be there in the Western Regions. β
"The Well of Gods and Demons, it turns out that this is the case, it seems that your East China Sea Dragon Clan does not please Buddhism very much, Guanyin's little lady would rather idle the Ruyi Golden Hoop Stick than return it to you. I don't believe that a mere well of gods and demons, although it can release the ghost qi of the underworld, how can the Buddhism sect have no other way to suppress it, but they have to use my wishful golden hoop stick, it seems that they have already thought that you will go to ask for it, so they will take advantage of the situation", Zhou Yan looked at the Dragon King of the East China Sea who was a little unwilling, and said coldly.
The Dragon King of the East China Sea smiled bitterly: "Great Sage, Xiaolong has also thought about this matter, but what can be done." Buddhism since the Buddha established the religion, the door of convenience has been opened, the breadth of the gods and demons of the heavens, I have not known how many promising young people of the dragon clan have been degreed in the past, but we are helpless, resulting in our current Three Realms Dragon Clan is divided into two categories, one is the orthodox Dragon Clan of the Four Seas headed by our Dragon King of the Four Seas, and the other is the dragon people in the eight divisions of the Heavenly Dragon who have been transformed by Buddhism, and even with the support of Buddhism, the power of the dragon clan is increasing day by day, and it is gradually going to replace our Dragon Clan of the Four Seas and become the new orthodoxy of the Dragon Clan of the Three Realmsγ Xiaolong is very unwilling, really unwilling, but just like what the Great Sage said, he has no strength and courage, he just sends him to death, so for the continuation of the Dragon Clan of the Four Seas, our Dragon King of the Four Seas can only make good connections and be a good man. β
"Oh, I didn't expect that you would have such a grudge in your heart, old neighbor, and what I didn't expect was that you would tell me what you thought in your heart, no wonder you would be dispelled. Say, what is your purpose", Zhou Yan looked at the Dragon King of the East China Sea with some differences, and asked.
"Great Sage, Xiaolong knows that after you escaped from the seal of the Five Elements Mountain of the Buddha, Great Sage, you will not let go of Buddhism easily, and Xiaolong has no good impression of Buddhism, so we can say that we are on the same side. It's just that Xiaolong is different from the Great Sage, Xiaolong My family has a big business, and it is impossible to do it wantonly without scruples like the Great Sage, Xiaolong is willing to secretly help the Great Sage deal with Buddhism, although the power of my Four Seas Dragon Clan is now declining, but the heritage still exists, and it can become the eyes and ears of the Great Sage and provide news for the Great Sage", the Dragon King of the East China Sea said in a firm tone, after a period of struggle in his heart, he finally made up his mind and strengthened the thoughts in his heart.
"I see, old neighbor, you are really playing this abacus loudly! Let me be a pawn of your Four Seas Dragon Clan on the bright side to attract the hatred of Western Heavenly Buddhism, and you can hide in the shadows and enjoy the success, without wasting your efforts. If you do this, the danger I will encounter for me will be much greater than the benefit, and you know the power of Western Heaven Buddhism, why should I listen to you", Zhou Yan sneered.
"Great Sage, although the strength of our Four Seas Dragon Clan is not obvious in the Three Realms today, but our Dragon Clan has a deep heritage and a long heritage, and the little dragon will not let the Great Sage down, Great Sage, please take a look", as he spoke, the Dragon King of the East China Sea waved his hand, mana gushed out, and the green qi swirled, blurring into the appearance of a green dragon, and submerged into the gilded wall behind the main hall.
A blue light flashed quietly, and a man-high gate opened on the magnificent gilded wall, and the door was dark, but there was a faint fluctuation of invisible mana.
"Great Sage, please follow Xiaolong in and have a look", the Dragon King of the East China Sea walked in front and asked Zhou Yan.
"I want to see what kind of medicine you bought in this gourd", Zhou Yan, who was confident in his strength, followed the footsteps of the Dragon King of the East China Sea without hesitation and stepped into the gate.
Behind the gate, there is a long corridor, the left and right sides of the corridor are covered with colorful agarwood night pearls, which illuminate this corridor into colorful colors, for a while, Zhou Yan almost couldn't see the figure of the Dragon King of the East China Sea in front of him, and in this seemingly empty corridor, Zhou Yan actually felt countless faint threats, some of which seemed to be able to endanger his life, making his heart vigilant.
"Great Sage, please calm down, don't use your divine sense, follow the pace of Xiaolong, it is full of prohibitions inherited by our dragon clan, and there are many murderous opportunities everywhere, if you are not careful, and the ban is triggered, even Xiaolong I may not be able to save it", the Dragon King of the East China Sea, who was walking in front, hurriedly said after seeing Zhou Yan come in.
It will not be a race that has existed since the ancient times, even if it is lonely later, but its heritage cannot be underestimated.
The so-called more is better than less, Zhou Yan didn't want to test the law by himself, try to see if the prohibition here was as serious as the Dragon King of the East China Sea said, so he hurriedly followed the footsteps of the Dragon King of the East China Sea and walked forward.
"Old Dragon King, where are we going?", Zhou Yan looked at the hurried figure of the Dragon King of the East China Sea and asked strangely. Due to his immersive perception of the power of the East China Sea Dragon Palace, Zhou Yan's title for the Dragon King of the East China Sea has changed from an old neighbor to an old Dragon King.
Hearing Zhou Yan's shout, a flash of laughter appeared on the face of the Dragon King of the East China Sea, in fact, it was one of the purposes for the Dragon King of the East China Sea to bring Zhou Yan here.
Although, after thousands of years, the Dragon King of the East China Sea has developed a good temper whether deliberately or unintentionally, but this does not mean that the Dragon King of the East China Sea likes to look at people's faces and act, since he has decided to cooperate with Zhou Yan this time, it is necessary to properly show a little bit of his strength in the Dragon Palace of the East China Sea, so that Zhou Yan understands that he is not easy to bully.
From Zhou Yan's question just now, the Dragon King of the East China Sea felt that Zhou Yan's attitude had changed somewhat, from the previous freewheeling to the current showing a trace of caution, which is what the Dragon King of the East China Sea likes to see.
"Great Sage, don't you know, the place we are going to now is the place where our East China Sea Dragon Palace hides the heavy treasure, the Great Sage is now asking the whereabouts of the Dinghai Divine Needle, it must be that there is no blade in my hand, I naturally want to find a blade for the Great Sage. This time, if the Great Sage wants to go to the Western Regions to retrieve the Dinghai Divine Needle, he will definitely be stopped by the Buddhist Gate, and before that, the Great Sage also needs a blade that can temporarily replace the Dinghai Divine Needle and exert the strength of the Great Sage", the Dragon King of the East China Sea said with a smile.
"It seems that you still have a heart, old dragon king, I don't know what kind of blade you can find for me", Zhou Yan asked.
"Please wait and see what the Great Sage, I will definitely not disappoint the Great Sage", the Dragon King of the East China Sea smiled and didn't say much.
About a time after a cup of tea, Zhou Yan followed the Dragon King of the East China Sea to a golden jade gate with golden dragon carvings on both sides, there was a golden lock between the gates, and there was a plaque hanging on the gate, which was engraved with three magnificent characters of "Treasure Pavilion".
"Please wait a while, let me open the gate", I saw that the Dragon King of the East China Sea walked forward slowly, started with both hands, and formed a complex magic seal, turning into several cyan streamers and submerging into the golden lock of the gate, and the golden lock disappeared in the spiritual light cast by the several magic seals of the Dragon King of the East China Sea.
After that, the Dragon King of the East China Sea stretched out one of the fingers of his hands and pointed at the dragon eyes of the five-clawed golden dragons carved from the gates on the left and right sides, and two drops of cyan and golden-colored blood dripped from the fingers of both hands and penetrated into the dragon eyes on both sides.
