Chapter 23 The Origin of Scarlet Cloud Island
Haha, can't you tell? The seemingly gentle princess is actually a ruthless person.
Just because he offended her, he destroyed the whole family. This is the imperial power of Qi. No wonder Qi is the weakest among the four kingdoms.
Jun Buyu didn't say much, but changed the topic, "I see, is the princess also here for the treasure?"
"Yes, but with all the immortal kings here, we in the mortal world may have no hope." The Ninth Princess said calmly, but she didn't feel the slightest loss.
"Knowing that you are testing me, I can tell you that Black Ice Grass is indeed a treasure, but it is only useful for people with water and fire spiritual roots." Jun Buyu smiled:
"For monks who do not have these two spiritual roots, the Black Ice Grass itself does not have any value. Of course, if you sell the Black Ice Grass, you can make a lot of money."
The Ninth Princess frowned slightly: "Is it true that Xuanbingcao has no effect at all on the mortal world?"
"This is the purpose of your coming here. For the sake of solving my doubts just now, I can tell you. Although Xuanbingcao cannot be used for cultivation, it can be used for blessing." Jun said nothing.
After a pause, he said again:
"Like your Qi country, if you get the Black Ice Grass and the blessing of the immortal, you should be able to rise quickly."
The Ninth Princess nodded lightly: "Thank you, Immortal Lord, for informing me."
"Do you want to ask again, since Xuanbingcao is useless to most monks, why is there such a situation like this on Chiyun Island? Especially big shots like us are here." Jun.
Said without saying a word.
Ninth Princess: "..." I didn't ask.
Jun Buyu is not a person who lives up to his name. Although he is named Buyu, he talks more than anyone else.
He looked around, then looked at the Ninth Princess, "Do you know the legend of Chiyun Island?"
"Um...no, I don't know."
"Chiyun Island, it is rumored that the reason why it appeared here is because something changed, which led to its birth." Jun Buyu lowered his voice:
"Do you want to know what happened?"
Ninth Princess: "..." She really doesn't want to.
She has always rarely touched on things in the world of cultivation, especially in places like Chiyun Island. She really has no interest in knowing.
Because the more you know, the more dangerous it is.
But this fairy king seemed to be a talkative, so he had to tell her.
Can she say no? The answer is no.
Sure enough, before the Ninth Princess could refuse, Jun Buyu took the initiative and spoke: "It is said that thousands of years ago, two powerful monsters fought over each other for territory.
They are the black dragon and the nine-tailed fox respectively. They are both extremely powerful and terrifying beings... Their battle lasted for three years, and the fight was so violent that the earth was shattered.
But since it was a duel, there were naturally winners and losers. Although the nine-tailed fox won in the end, the nine-tailed fox himself was also seriously injured and eventually fell from the sky.
The location where the nine-tailed fox's body fell finally became an island after many years of changes, and people named this island 'Red Cloud Island'."
After listening for a long time, the Ninth Princess did not understand what the immortal king wanted to express.
"You must be curious now, what does this have to do with the gathering of so many of us cultivators, right?" Jun Buyu smiled lightly.
"Well... I hope Xianjun will inform you."
"Well, I'll tell you." Jun Buyu said quite proudly: "Do you know that the nine-tailed fox has nine lives? It fought the black dragon desperately, but only used eight lives."
The Ninth Princess was startled, as if she understood something.
"Every time the nine-tailed fox loses a life, it must go through one reincarnation if it wants to be reborn. Therefore, the ninth life of the nine-tailed fox has to go through nine reincarnations. And according to the calculations of the Shenjigui Pavilion in our world of cultivation, its third life
The ninth life has arrived."
Jun Buyu narrowed his eyes, "That's a nine-tailed fox. If you reincarnate in the ninth life, the demon power will definitely be gone. This is a good opportunity to capture it. Maybe you can cultivate it as a battle pet."
Only then did the Ninth Princess suddenly realize, "So the nine-tailed fox is the fundamental reason why all the immortal monarchs gathered here?"
"Yes, this is not a secret in the world of cultivation. Do you think we are the only ones here? The real big shots haven't arrived yet. We are just here to explore the way first." Jun Buyu nodded and said:
"So, the high-level spiritual grass is not important in front of the nine-tailed fox. It is what you mortals need. Eighty or ninety percent of the monks will not fight for it. Everyone has to save their strength to compete for the nine-tailed fox."
So that’s the case. If this is the case, then the chances of mortals will be greatly improved. Otherwise, how can they still play in the mortal world with so many great masters of cultivation?
However, he said 80% or 90%, so there are still 10% or 20% of the monks... Ninth Princess frowned and asked: "What about the remaining monks?"
"The remaining monks may snatch the Black Ice Grass, because although not many people can use it, it is a high-level spiritual grass, so it won't hurt to snatch it and sell it for a good price, right?" Jun Buyu said lightly.
It seems that this trip is really full of crises... The Ninth Princess suddenly felt heavy. After all, there is a huge gap between the monks in the mortal world and the monks in the cultivation world.
Can they, the mortal world, win in this journey?
"Then, will the Black Ice Grass and the Nine-tailed Fox be born at the same time?"
"No, Xuanbingcao is estimated to have only lasted for the past two days, and according to the calculations of the Shenji Ghost Pavilion, the nine-tailed fox... ahem, I can't tell you this." Although the eyes are silent and talkative, it is enough:
"Anyway, take your Black Ice Grass. Most of the monks will not interfere in order to preserve their strength. As for the small part, you can handle it yourself."
"Well, little lady, thank you Xianjun..." Ninth Princess nodded.
"Damn, Gu Changjun is in trouble. I want his magic weapon... Junior Sister Ling'er, let me help you!"
You didn't say anything and didn't wait for the Ninth Princess to finish speaking. He unsheathed the long sword in his hand. Immediately, it rose into the sky and stabbed not far away like a meteor!
…
On the other side of the island, a stream of light emerged, and Jiang Liyue appeared quietly.
There was not a lot of people here, because most people had gone to watch the excitement, which gave her a good opportunity to take advantage of.
"Nine-tailed fox? I seem to have heard Master say..." Jiang Liyue lowered her eyes and muttered to herself.
She heard what Jun Buyu and the Ninth Princess said just now. She is currently the most cultivated among the group, so it is not difficult to eavesdrop.
She remembered that she once accidentally saw a monster illustrated book, and then she saw a monster named Nine-tailed Fox. According to the illustrated book, it was a kind of disaster beast.
Then she went to find her master, and finally confirmed that it was indeed a disaster beast.
According to Master, the nine-tailed fox is a rare monster. The reason why it is also called a disaster beast is because it is naturally moody. It not only likes to eat humans, but also absorbs the essence and yang energy from other people's bodies.
Thereby enhancing one's own cultivation.
Once such a monster grows up, it will definitely harm the world, and the most dangerous thing is that anyone who wants to become its master will eventually be killed by it.
Just to gain the power of the nine-tailed fox, then sell your soul, and end up worse than dead?
Not only should we not rob this kind of monster, we should also work together to kill it.
Anyway, Jiang Liyue disdained that. Not only her, but anyone with a more upright heart would not think of becoming the master of the nine-tailed fox.
But judging from the situation this time, there are still many people who are greedy for profit. So many monks have come to the world of cultivation...
Thinking of this, Jiang Liyue couldn't help but look up at the sky and asked in her heart: "Is this caused by human nature or the greed of heaven?"
Regarding the nine-tailed fox, the original work did not mention it. It can be seen that even Gu Changjun in the original work has never had any idea of the nine-tailed fox.
But these monks, many of them from large sects and sects, are scrambling to be the first...
That's all, she's taking her Black Ice Grass, and they're taking their Nine-tailed Fox, so they have nothing to do with each other.
There was no need for her to make enemies of so many cultivators in the world of cultivation and then create a big cause and effect. If the nine-tailed fox really harmed the world in the future, there would be those old immortals to deal with it.
She just wanted the truth wholeheartedly.
But then again, I didn’t expect that after not seeing each other for a while, Gu Changjun’s Erbi actually became a late-stage distraction? And he also got a peerless magic weapon?
As for whether he had obtained any skills or the like, she didn't know.
No, in the original work, his adventure was not this.
Could it be because of his own fault that this "son of destiny" had other adventures? If so, it would be too much of a lie.
It’s just God chasing after you and giving you food. This is too devastating for those who practice hard.
"What a mad dog. Not only did he come here, he also used my name as a shield..." Jiang Liyue pondered.
After a while, Jiang Liyue, who was frowning, relaxed his brows and turned into a smile.
Okay, since Gu Changjun likes to play, then I will play with him!
"Huh~"
A gust of breeze blew up, and Jiang Liyue's delicate face began to change. Her originally disguised appearance was softer, giving people a gentle and jade-like feeling.
But now, her appearance and facial features gradually became sharp and very aggressive.
At the same time, the aura on her body was also changing, from the superficial foundation-building stage to the distraction stage.
Not long after, a face with sword-shaped eyebrows and starry eyes was completed. An evil smile appeared at the corner of her mouth, and cynicism was written in her eyes.
Finally, there is the aura of Chuchen dressed in fluttering white clothes!
Jiang Liyue touched her face, "I always feel like I'm almost something... Oh, that's right!"
After saying this, he turned his palm into a blade and gently cut the wig on his head.
Suddenly, a Mediterranean hairstyle appeared, and then it was covered again with a wig, which can be described as very abstract.
If it were Gu Changjun here, I'm afraid he would have immediately exclaimed, "What the hell!" for no other reason than that the face of Jiang Liyue's disguise turned out to be exactly the same as his!
At this point, it is already obvious what Jiang Liyue wants to do.
Chapter completed!
