Chapter 268 Dark under the lamp
"Is this a clue?"
Hearing about the fifth kind of spiritual beast king blood, Li Yuan's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly invited Zhang Ada into the house and served him wine and tea.
The White Sandalwood Spirit Sheep King, the Spirit Fire Bull King, the Cloud Sea Deer King, and the jar of Spirit Wild Wolf King's blood in his hand, he has obtained four of the five spirit beast kings' blood that he needed.
"Speaking of which, there are many kinds of spirit beast kings in our Hundred Beasts Mountain. If you didn't insist on having certain ones, I would have found them for you long ago."
Holding up the wine glass, Zhang Ada, with a smile on his face, talked about the origin of this jar of blood of the Spiritual Wild Wolf King.
The major sects in the world all have the habit of raising spiritual beasts in captivity, but apart from the imperial court and the five major Taoist sects, there are only a few who can raise beast kings.
The Spiritual Wolf King was the king of the spiritual beasts raised in the 'Tianlang Sect' of Dingzhou. For this jar of blood, he paid a lot, not only the blood and bones of the spiritual beast, but also favors.
"Thank you, senior brother."
Although Zhang Ada's words were vague, Li Yuan naturally knew what he meant. He clasped his fists and thanked him, expressing his gratitude.
"We are all brothers. Junior brother, you are too polite."
Zhang Ada's smile became even warmer. He had just returned to the mountain, and when he passed by the Dragon Monument, he saw Li Yuan's current ranking.
Less than a year after he started learning martial arts, he had actually reached the 40th place on the Dragon List, which was even faster than Long Xinglie back then. Although this was because the latter did not practice martial arts when he first started, it also shows that Li Yuan has amazing talent and is truly a peerless talent.
A jar of blood in exchange for a favor from such a person is naturally a very good deal.
"Thank you for your hard work, brother."
Li Yuan raised his glass to toast.
He has never been averse to owing favors to others. Sometimes, this can quickly bring people closer together. A relationship of interest is also a relationship.
"Come, drink."
Zhang Ada had just returned from a long journey and was thirsty, so he naturally accepted everyone who came.
After drinking a few cups, without waiting for Li Yuan to ask, he started talking about the fifth kind of spiritual beast king blood:
"Junior brother, have you ever heard of the golden-eyed angry chicken?"
"Angry Chicken?"
Li Yuan thought for a moment and said, "There seems to be such a creature on the Hengshan Ten Thousand Beasts List?"
"The Angry-eyed Chicken is not rare. Many small and medium-sized sects, such as Huizhou Liexueshan and Sanyuanwu, keep some in captivity. But the Golden-eyed Angry-eyed Chicken is very rare. Hengshan Dao only has a pair of them."
Zhang Ada knew all kinds of spiritual beasts, but he didn't show off at this time. After a slight pause, he said, "This pair of spiritual chicken kings are in the hands of Mr. Jin Shengwu in Huanglong Villa."
"Mr. Jin?"
Li Yuan frowned slightly.
Anyone who can be honored as "old man" by the leader of Longhu Temple is certainly not an ordinary person.
Huanglong Villa is a state-level sect in Dingzhou, and its reputation is greater than that of Huailong Palace and Qisha Sect. The reason for this is, of course, because of this old man Jin.
The sixth person on the list of heroes, a master-level giant who has been famous for more than a hundred years. He has superb martial arts skills and is a kind and charitable person with a wide range of friends. Even the Dragon and Tiger Taoist master Long Yingchan received his guidance when he was young.
In terms of seniority in the martial arts world, he is higher than Long Xixiang and Nie Xianshan.
"Brother Zhang, are you kidding?"
Li Yuan's eyes twitched, and his eyes looked unkind: "Who dares to bleed the chicken raised by Mr. Jin?"
Rather than offending a top master, he might as well go to Fenglei Valley to capture the double-winged thunder dog king.
"It may be impossible for others, but it may be possible for you, Junior Brother."
Zhang Ah Da smiled and said, "Junior brother, you may not know this because you have only been here for a short time. Uncle Long and this old man Jin are close friends regardless of age difference. Back then..."
"Stop."
Li Yuan interrupted with a frown.
"Don't be impatient, brother. Let me tell you slowly."
"...Brother, please make it short."
Li Yuan adjusted his mood.
"Speaking of which, this pair of spiritual chicken kings was brought back from the imperial capital by Uncle Long and given to Master Jin. Later, they grew golden eyes and became the kings of spiritual beasts."
Zhang Ada coughed lightly and talked about the past, but he stopped joking:
"No one expected that the snacks sent by Uncle Long would actually become the King of Spirit Beasts. For many years afterwards, Mr. Jin wanted to return the pair of King of Spirit Chickens to prevent them from being coveted by others."
"Unfortunately, Uncle Long insisted on not accepting it."
Zhang Ada sighed. He had some thoughts about the pair of spiritual chicken kings. There were not many spiritual beast kings that could lay eggs and were highly productive, not to mention in Hengshan, but in the whole world.
"Even if Master Jin is willing, I'm afraid his disciples won't be willing, right?"
Li Yuan shook his head.
The value of the Spirit Beast King is far beyond that of ordinary spirit beasts, not to mention the Spirit Chicken King. The Spirit Chicken King is also a chicken and lays eggs. In terms of value, it is much higher than other spirit beast kings!
"Maybe it was before, but it's different now."
Zhang Ada lowered his voice and said, "Next June, it will be the old man's birthday, his 200th birthday!"
Two hundred years old, this is the deadline.
After taking a glance at Zhang Ada who looked a little sneaky, Li Yuan understood something.
Even Zhang Ada was still obsessed with them. It was obvious that there were many forces coveting the pair of spiritual chicken kings. No wonder that old man Jin wanted to send the pair of spiritual chicken kings to Longhu Temple.
Everything was fine when Jin Shengwu was alive. The title of sixth on the Heroes List was enough to shock the world. But once he passed away, it would be hard to say.
Most of the reputation of Huanglong Villa lies in this old man.
"Spiritual beasts are rare in the world. Junior brother, which ones do you want to specify? Apart from the golden-eyed angry chicken, there are only a few of them in the four states of Hengshan, and they all hide in secluded places like Fenglei Valley."
Seeing that Li Yuan's expression had changed, Zhang Ada put down his wine glass and said, "I mentioned this because I knew that you had something to ask for, and I have no other intentions." "Thank you for your advice, senior brother."
Li Yuan raised his glass to toast, but since it was about a grandmaster, a top grandmaster at that, he really didn't want to join in the fun.
If you compare them realistically, Huanglong Villa may not be much safer than Fenglei Valley.
After drinking a few more cups, Zhang Ada stood up to say goodbye. He did not mention the Golden-Eyed Angry Chicken again, but said that he would find out for him whether he could get the blood of the fifth spiritual beast he needed.
"Golden-eyed angry chicken, the king of spirit beasts that can lay eggs..."
Watching Zhang Ada go away, Li Yuan muttered to himself several times, and suddenly woke up:
"Why am I obsessed with the blood of spirit beasts?"
A thought flashed through his mind, and Li Yuan's mind suddenly became active. He found that he seemed to have made a misunderstanding.
The sacrifices required for the ceremony of granting the ordination certificate to the heaven required five animals, not their blood. The reason why he chose the blood of five animals was because the meat of the king of spirit beasts was almost impossible to buy.
After all, no sect would kill the goose that lays the golden eggs, or slaughter the spirit beast king for its meat. It is already the limit to be able to shed some blood for alchemy and quenching.
"In my previous life, I used frozen meat from the supermarket... The ceremony of receiving the ordination certificate from the heaven only requires the gathering of five animals, and there are no other requirements for the sacrifices."
Li Yuan's heartbeat quickened, and he realized that he was completely blind to the truth:
"There's no chicken blood, but where are the eggs?"
……
Li Yuan suppressed the urge to catch up with Zhang Ada. He felt that he should not appear too eager because the fat man was not as honest as he seemed.
It is naturally not easy for someone to stand out from tens of thousands of Dragon and Tiger disciples and become the helmsman.
Li Yuan returned to the yard and stood in the Dragon Zen Post for a long time before he calmed down his restlessness and once again felt the changes in himself after being blessed by the two Juntian heavy hammers.
"We need to go and provoke that hammer. Maybe two bites will be enough?"
After feeling it for a while, Li Yuan felt that he had changed a lot. He closed his eyes, and when he opened them again, he had arrived at the Black Whale Secret Realm with seven heavy hammers in his hands.
hum~
Hanging upside down on the mountain, the wind is howling.
Almost at the moment when Li Yuan appeared, he heard a buzzing sound coming from somewhere, and the whole mountain seemed to shake.
【you?!!】
A ball of azure light burst out from the stone tablet, and words flashed by, seeming to be very shocked.
"Still not coming out?"
Li Yuan patted the stone tablet, and his voice rose and echoed on the top of the mountain.
[…Cheat…Cheat again…]
On the stone tablet, the stuttering words flickered and soon disappeared.
"What do you mean by cheating again?"
Master Li was furious. This hammer was too rude.
bang bang~
Li Yuan smashed down with a few powerful hammers, and the rocks within a radius of dozens of meters with the stone tablet as the center began to crack and collapse.
puff!
Then, his body exploded and he was kicked out of the Black Whale Secret Realm by an invisible force.
"Too old-fashioned, not flexible at all."
In the room, Li Yuan slowly opened his eyes, feeling somewhat speechless.
He didn't know whether all Tianyun Xuanbing were like this, or only the Sea-Splitting Mysterious Whale Hammer was like this, but after these exchanges, he had some doubts about the spirituality of this hammer.
Not only is it rigid, but it's also old-fashioned. How can this thing be called spiritual?
"But this hammer has become much more flexible. Perhaps if I tease him a few more times, I can pass the test without using the third hammer?"
Li Yuan stood up and paced back and forth. He felt that he was not far from controlling this Heavenly Destiny Mysterious Weapon.
"Well, even if it doesn't work, the third hammer should be enough. If it's still not enough, it would be too rude."
Master Li Dao muttered to himself.
After entering and exiting the Mysterious Whale Realm once, Li Yuan felt much calmer. The energy of the Mysterious Whale nourished his spirit and calmed him down.
"The blood that Fatty Zhang gave is quite sufficient. It should be enough if we use it twice... Even if it's not enough, the blood of these spirit beast kings is relatively easier to get."
Li Yuan took out four jars and shook them slightly. Zhang Ada was still intact and there was plenty of blood.
The size of the spirit beast king is often larger than that of its ordinary counterparts, and some are even several times larger. With a large body, it naturally has more blood.
"Zhang Ada obviously wants me to persuade Old Dragon Head to accept the Golden Eyed Angry Chicken, but Old Dragon Head will never listen to me. Even if he listens, there is still more than half a year before Mr. Jin's 200th birthday..."
After a little thought, Li Yuan put away the jar and took out the 'Nighttime Set' which he had not used for a long time.
Compared to controlling the Sea-Splitting Black Whale Hammer and attending the Heavenly Granting Ceremony, the more urgent thing at the moment is to deal with the great master of the Evil God Cult who is most likely here to find him.
He couldn't sleep just thinking about the possibility that there might be a great master wearing divine armor, or at least a quasi-grandmaster level, lurking in the dark.
"Senior Brother Dou Yue is a steady person and is the best candidate."
Li Yuan talked to himself.
There are also some rules for giving warnings.
If he went to Dou Yue himself to warn him, he would not be able to explain how he discovered and recognized the giant who was above the guardian level of the Evil God Cult.
The best way, of course, is to wear a mask and warn without any explanation.
"call!"
Li Yuan changed his clothes swiftly, tidied himself up in front of the mirror, took out the ghost mask and put it on.
Li Yuanba, who had disappeared for a long time, appeared in the bronze mirror.
