Chapter 160: Emperor Liang's Thoughts
"You're not dead?"
This emperor has always been unfazed, but now he showed an extremely surprised expression, you must know that the thirteen great cultivators were all buried in the East China Sea, it is enough to see that the monsters at the bottom of the East China Sea are extremely terrifying.
No, it's the twelve great cultivators right now.
Lu Chengfeng actually came back alive, which he never expected, and other people in the world probably couldn't imagine that Lu Chengfeng was still alive!
Lu Chengfeng actually deceived the world.
And Lu Chengfeng almost choked to death after hearing His Majesty's words, how does this sound weird, Your Majesty, this bad old man, does this want me to die? Or do you want me to die?
However, Lu Chengfeng also understood what this emperor was thinking, after all, it was impossible to escape from a monster comparable to a Jindan immortal.
Looking at His Majesty who was full of doubts and shock, Lu Chengfeng explained: "Although I said that I escaped from the East China Sea Dragon Palace at that time, I didn't expect that the monsters in the East China Sea Dragon Palace also chased out, fortunately, the Zen Master of the East China Sea arrived in time, otherwise, Wei Chen would probably be buried in the East China Sea......
After the emperor heard Lu Chengfeng's words, he nodded and suddenly realized, but this calm mood had just gone down for a short time, so he looked at Lu Chengfeng with a shocked face
"What did you just say?
It took a while for the emperor to react, hidden in this ordinary sentence, an extremely unusual word.
This East China Sea Dragon Palace, he had only heard of it in myths and legends before, even if he was an emperor.
He thought that there was an extraterrestrial artifact hidden in the bottom of the East China Sea, but he didn't expect that it would later lead to a series of events that have evolved into the current situation.
However, now in Lu Chengfeng's words, he seems to really see the truth hidden behind the East China Sea incident.
And this truth has a lot to do with the mythical and legendary East China Sea Dragon Palace, when he heard Lu Chengfeng's words, he still couldn't believe it, and he was skeptical, and once again confirmed to Lu Chengfeng whether it was the legendary East China Sea Dragon Palace.
"Yes, it's the Dragon Palace of the East China Sea, originally we thought that there would be a so-called extraterrestrial artifact at the bottom of the East China Sea, but we didn't expect it to be a huge building complex, and this building complex should be the remains of the dragon civilization in ancient times. In this complex, there is an extremely large palace, and the gate of this palace is the legendary Dragon Gate, and when you open that dragon gate, you can enter the mythical Dragon Palace of the East China Sea......"
"At the beginning, all of us were very excited to think that we could get many treasures in the East China Sea Dragon Palace, and we could quickly improve our cultivation in the East China Sea Dragon Palace, and even get the inheritance of the dragon civilization in ancient times. But it's a pity that in the East China Sea Dragon Palace, in addition to the very rich aura of heaven and earth, we didn't get valuable treasures, let alone the inheritance of the dragon civilization in the ancient period that we had been looking forward to, but in the East China Sea Dragon Palace, we encountered those extremely terrifying unknown creatures......"
"I'm afraid that the lowest strength of those terrible monsters is the one that escaped from the East China Sea Dragon Palace before and chased me, but even so, that monster also has a strength comparable to that of the Jindan Immortals, but in the East China Sea Dragon Palace, the strength of these monsters will be greatly suppressed, but once these monsters escape from the East China Sea Dragon Palace, I am afraid it will be a huge disaster for the entire Shenzhou Continent......"
Lu Chengfeng spent a lot of time explaining to the emperor in front of him what he had encountered in the Dragon Palace of the East China Sea, including how the abbot of Putuo Temple died in front of his eyes, including how other great cultivators died at the hands of that terrible monster, and also how the first precept of Lumen Temple let go of the contradictions and conflicts between the two and helped him escape from the Dragon Palace of the East China Sea at the cost of his own life.
It's just that when telling about the experience of the Dragon Palace in the East China Sea, Lu Chengfeng also made some modifications and concealments about some experiences, such as the existence of the Dragon Girl and related things.
First, because Lu Chengfeng herself didn't want to reveal the existence of the Dragon Girl, and secondly, the Dragon Girl didn't allow Lu Chengfeng to reveal her existence to other people.
"I really didn't expect that the legendary East China Sea Dragon Palace really existed, and according to your description, that huge dragon bone was unimaginably powerful in its strength......
After hearing Lu Chengfeng's words, this emperor, who had gone through vicissitudes, could no longer hide the excitement in his heart, and his excited hands had nowhere to put them, pacing back and forth, looking very happy, and even breathing a little faster.
He didn't expect that the dragon was not just a totem, but that it was a pity that it really existed in this world, and the powerful dragon civilization in ancient times overturned overnight for some reason, and to this day, even a living dragon does not always exist, which makes him feel some regrets.
But at the same time, this also makes this emperor have a higher vision, at least the existence of those powerful ancient dragons, which means that the realm of Jindan is not the end of the cultivation path, above the realm of Jindan, there is a higher realm, and the realm that surpasses Jindan is not what they, Jindan immortals, have been pursuing?
Although it was said that these Jindan Immortals had already stood at the peak of this world, for them, this peak was just another starting point.
For other cultivators, the Jindan realm was like an insurmountable ravine, but for them, the higher realm was also a huge gully that could not be crossed.
And the most important thing is that of the twelve great cultivators who entered the East China Sea Dragon Palace, twelve of them were all buried in the East China Sea, and only Lu Chengfeng escaped from the East China Sea Dragon Palace alone.
This also meant that apart from him and Zen Master Prajna, several other big forces were completely unaware of the existence of the East China Sea Dragon Palace, which was a huge opportunity for them.
Although they also knew very well that the East China Sea Dragon Palace was very dangerous, in the eyes of this emperor, the East China Sea Dragon Palace was very worthy of his adventure.
After all, in today's cultivation world, the Seven Great Jindan Immortals can't see at all the hope of being able to break through the Jindan realm, and only a place like the East China Sea Dragon Palace can give them the opportunity to break through the Jindan realm.
On the other hand, the aura of heaven and earth in today's cultivation world can be regarded as very scarce for Jindan immortals like them, and only the rich aura of heaven and earth in the Dragon Palace of the East China Sea can support a Jindan immortal's consumption of heaven and earth aura.
Among the seven Jindan immortals at that time, only the Fox Emperor, who lived the longest, stepped into the late stage of the Jindan realm, but this is also the result of hundreds of years of accumulation, and this also shows how difficult it is for the Jindan Immortals to make a breakthrough in today's cultivation world.
And now in the eyes of this emperor, they have taken the lead, no matter whether this news will be revealed or not, and when it will be revealed, it is time for him to start preparing now.
It's just that even so, this emperor still has a lot of scruples, firstly, in the East China Sea Dragon Palace, there are too many uncertain factors, maybe how long will he stay in the East China Sea Dragon Palace?
As the emperor of Liang, he naturally can't leave Jinling City for a long time, otherwise, the entire two countries will probably be in chaos at that time, and this is also his helplessness as an emperor, unable to do his own things as he wants.
Sometimes he is really envious of a Jindan immortal like Zen Master Praruo, who puts aside all the affairs of Lumen Temple and entrusts them to the abbot of Lumen Temple, and he can travel the world without restraint, which is equivalent to just a symbol.
And even if he wants to be like Prajna Zen Master, it is not easy to really do that, after all, a country is not as simple as a sect and a temple.
In particular, this emperor's desire to control power is very strong, even if he has the strength of the Jindan Immortal now, he still can't rest assured that he will delegate power, or give up the throne to his son and be an emperor.
And judging from his son's ability now, he may not be able to deter those ministers in the court, let alone the Queen Mother's party.
Although it is said that the two countries now have a second Jindan Immortal, this second Jindan Immortal is a perennial traveler in the world, and even he cannot recall this Golden Lantern Immortal anytime and anywhere.
The most important thing is that he is still afraid of this Jindan Immortal, and even has a certain degree of vigilance, so it is even more impossible to let this Jindan Immortal replace him to shock the court and the world.
Standing in front of this emperor, Lu Chengfeng naturally couldn't guess what this emperor thought, but this emperor had so many thoughts in his heart, but he didn't mention it to Lu Chengfeng, otherwise Lu Chengfeng would probably propose a system similar to a constitutional monarchy.
However, according to the temperament of this emperor, he may not listen to Lu Chengfeng's suggestion, and may even feel that Lu Chengfeng's suggestion is a bit rebellious, so as to question Lu Chengfeng's so-called center, and Lu Chengfeng naturally cannot really put himself on the opposite side of the feudal system.
The first is that he does not have that kind of strength now, and the second is that the current Liang State does not have the social conditions to change the feudal autocracy.
Emperor Liang put down the book in his hand and turned to look at Lu Chengfeng: "I'm very happy that you can come back safely, and your strength has improved so much......
Lu Chengfeng looked at Emperor Liang excitedly, this emperor was really happy, but it was not all because of himself, it was more because of the existence of the Dragon Palace of the East China Sea!
It seems that this emperor really values the East China Sea Dragon Palace very much, and even Lu Chengfeng feels that if the other party is not the emperor, I am afraid that he will not be able to hold back the excitement in his heart and go to the East China Sea.
