Chapter 221, Endless Abyss Picking Elixir
After the banquet was over, Shangguan Yun went to his residence with Ao Rui to rest, and agreed to set off together the next day to find news of Penglai. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info Ao Rui's second sister Ao Cong was going to find Shangguan Yun to discuss some music and rhythm issues, but was stopped by Tang Wu and didn't let her disturb Shangguan Yun's rest.
Ao Rui's current residence is outside the Crystal Palace, quite a distance from the Crystal Palace. According to Ao Rui, after the children of the dragon clan reach the age of 200, they must leave their parents to live alone. Therefore, only Ao Zhi still lives in the Crystal Palace, and as for Ao Cong, he was allowed to enter the Crystal Palace in order to accompany Tang Wu.
The Dragon King has three wives, and the main wife is from the South China Sea Dragon Clan, the mother of the eldest son Ao Cong, who later returned to the South China Sea for many years due to discord with the Dragon King. Tang Wu is the second wife of the Dragon King, only Ao Cong has a daughter, Ao Rui and Ao Zhi were born to one mother, their mother is not a dragon, originally a maid of the Dragon King, and now she has died.
Shangguan Yun originally thought that Ao Rui told him this, because he wanted to find out the stakes with him, so that he could win him over and help him fight for the crown prince, but later he realized that he was thinking too much, Ao Rui was purely lonely, and it was rare to have someone to chat with, so he said everything.
The dragon clan is actually similar to the nine-colored deer clan, and it is not easy to reproduce, so the number of people is extremely scarce, so they don't care about intermarrying with foreign races. Think about it, these guys, who are born overlords and have an extremely long lifespan, if they reproduce like the human race, can there be a way for other races in the world to live? According to Ao Rui, the current dragon king Ao Yi has at least 10,000 years of life, so there is no question of fighting for inheritance rights at all.
Fortunately, the dragon clan is not aggressive, and only dominates the sea, so it is safe to get along with the human race on the mainland. There is no other race in the sea that can challenge the supremacy of the dragon clan, even some of the divine beasts living in the sea also coexist peacefully with the dragon clan, after all, the ocean is so big, except for the sparse number of people, the life of the dragon clan is comfortable enough, and there is no need to fight for any territory.
As for Ao Cong, the eldest son of the Dragon King who Shangguan Yun did not see, according to Ao Rui, he was expelled from the East China Sea by Ao Yi because he was disrespectful to Concubine Tang after a drink, which is also the reason why Ao Yi strictly forbids them to drink spirits now.
As for where Ao Cong went, no one knows. The East China Sea is too big, not to mention that Ao Cong may not stay in the East China Sea, in fact, the dragon son who has been expelled may live more comfortably.
When he arrived at Ao Rui's residence, Shangguan Yun found that compared with the Crystal Palace, this place was not ordinary and simple! In fact, it was a relatively large cave on the high mountain under the sea, and the furnishings inside were not bad, as for the servants, they were still some aquatic spirits, although they were ugly and handsome, but most of them were still ugly.
After a careful look, Shangguan Yun realized that he still underestimated the family background of the Dragon Clan, and the furnishings in Ao Rui's Mansion seemed to be inconspicuous, but they were all some superb products worth ten thousand gold. Whether it is a pearl bead larger than a fist illuminated on the roof of the cave, a table and chair made of thousand-year-old tortoiseshell armor, or a bed carved from a whole piece of crystal, any one taken out will cause a sensation on the Kyushu continent.
Without waiting for Ao Rui to speak, Yuan San had already taken out several bags of monkey wine, and the three of them drank it again, and when they drank it, Shangguan Yun realized that he had underestimated Yuan San. This kid actually knew the idea of beating Ao Rui, and after a performance, he asked Ao Rui to give him an iron rod made of 10,000-year-old black iron, and the price was just to send Ao Rui a hundred bags of monkey wine from Kunlun Mountain.
Under the greed, Shangguan Yun also got a hundred walnut-sized pearls from Ao Rui, which were the capital for his future rebuilding of the Shushan faction, and the price he paid was to promise to help Ao Rui refine a furnace of elixir for him.
Everyone was overjoyed, and the three of them were all drunk, so much so that after Shangguan Yun woke up the next day, he touched the pearl in his bag, and couldn't help but sigh, the dragon clan is really a local tyrant!
When Ao Rui woke up, it was already noon, and the three of them set off immediately, first to an undersea canyon full of elixirs in Ao Rui's mouth, but according to Ao Rui, there was also a certain danger there.
Without Ao Rui's attendants, the three of them took Ao Rui's white jade boat to the undersea canyon called the bottomless abyss. On the way, Ao Rui told Shangguan Yun that it was the deepest part of the East China Sea, a deep valley about three hundred miles long, how deep it was, no one knew, in short, the further down, the higher the level of the elixir, but there were some fierce monsters, even the dragon clan had never been to the deepest part, in fact, because they didn't understand the art of alchemy, they didn't have much interest in the elixir.
Two hours later, the three of them had come to the entrance of the bottomless abyss, and sure enough, as Ao Rui said, the water here was extremely deep, and the entrance was ten miles away from the sea. But the light here is not dim, because on one side of the valley there is a slow-flowing lava waterfall that flows slowly into the depths of the valley, while on the other side the slope is gentle, with a variety of undersea plants growing on the slopes.
Shangguan Yun's master and apprentice immediately understood the danger that Ao Rui had said earlier, first of all, there was an extremely strong undercurrent under the sea here, and Bai Yuzhou could no longer completely force the current to open the current, and it became constantly bumpy. Moreover, the temperature here is extremely high, and the sea water seems to be boiling, and standing on Baiyuzhou Mountain, you can already feel the scorching breath.
"Why don't we go up there and pick it?" Ao Rui pointed to the slope that stretched out to the sea, where there were many elixirs.
Shangguan Yun shook his head, the more harsh the elixir that grows in the environment, the better the effect, how could he miss these elixirs in front of him, although many elixirs he had never seen before, but the aura fluctuations emitted on those elixirs had already made him excited.
"You and Yuan San are waiting here!I'll go by myself!" Shangguan Yun said to Ao Rui.
"Master, why don't I go up there to collect it?" Yuan San is also a good hand at cultivating elixirs, and when he saw those elixirs, he couldn't hold them back for a long time.
"Okay, you two go upper, I'll go down there and find out!"
"You should be careful! this is no better than on land!" Ao Rui said with some concern, even as the dragon clan who is the overlord of the seabed, he does not dare to go into the depths of this bottomless abyss easily.
"Don't worry!" Shangguan Yun pulled out the Firmament Divine Sword, and the golden scales on his forehead suddenly flashed, and he had already split into the water like a fish and dragon, and had entered the endless abyss in the blink of an eye.
"What's that? I'm not mistaken!" Ao Rui's eyes widened and he said as he looked at Shangguan Yun's back.
"Kunyu Golden Scales!" Yuan San said with a smile and pulled Ao Rui, "Let's go up there, don't worry, my master never does things that you are not sure of!"
"Damn!" Ao Rui stomped his foot and drove Bai Yuzhou upward, punching Yuan San, "Tell me, how many secrets does your master still have?"
Besides, Shangguan Yun relied on the protection of the golden scales of the kunyu to rush into the endless abyss, pocketed all the dozens of elixirs he saw, and then searched down little by little, and went down ten miles into the abyss within an hour, and had collected more than 200 elixirs.
At this time, Shangguan Yun was already twenty miles away from the sea, the light had become very dim, and the undercurrent on the bottom of the sea was becoming stronger and stronger, even with the protection of the golden scales, it was already a little difficult to move.
"Don't be too greedy!" Shangguan Yun admonished himself, but just as he was about to leave, he suddenly felt an unusually powerful spiritual power fluctuation coming from below, and when he was hesitating, an innocent voice suddenly came from his mind, "Get that thing in your hands!"
