"I've never heard of the Earth-shattering Dragon, and few people in my family have mentioned it!"
Li Nan had avoided it as much as possible, but this question was very important to him, so he took the risk to ask it.
He has encountered this kind of thing too many times. When someone is suspicious, the best way is to completely pretend not to know. If you find an excuse to say that you have forgotten or that you have not been nearby due to various reasons, that will be counterproductive.
More complex!
Because the more lies there are, the harder it will be to reconcile them later!
There’s no shame in not knowing anyway!
"So that's it! In fact, the sand here is extraordinary. It is said to contain some special power. Unfortunately, it is too scattered. No one can collect all the yellow sand within a million miles. In addition, extracting the essence inside is also very difficult.
Difficulty, even if you know it is a treasure, you can't use it!
But the Earth-covering Dragon is different. It can swallow the sand bit by bit and then absorb the essence inside. This also creates the Earth-covering Dragon's special ability!
For example, you can survive for a long time under three hundred feet of sand, and you can swallow sand to improve your cultivation. At the same time, your physical body also has special characteristics!"
"What's special?"
"That is, after being killed, as long as you escape to a part of your body, you can be reborn! It is equivalent to immortality!"
"Immortal? How could it be driven to extinction?"
"Because the Earth-Covering Dragon is only at the fifth level after all, the Nascent Soul cultivator will not give it the ability to escape anywhere! And I heard that some very precious things can be extracted from the killed Earth-Covering Dragon.
Even the true immortals who can overcome the tribulation have an effect!"
"Isn't this impossible?"
"I don't know either, it's just a legend."
"Did the Nascent Soul cultivator take action?"
"Not only Yuanying, but also Yuanshen monks are taking action!"
When Li Nan heard this, he suddenly believed that there was something precious inside the Earth-covering Dragon!
Otherwise, ordinary items would never be taken by Yuanshen monks, not even Yuanying!
Because the Earth-covering Dragon is hidden so deep, it must sit in one place all year round, otherwise even the consciousness of the soul cannot penetrate three hundred feet underground!
Waiting and waiting is quite time-consuming and of low value. Which Nascent Soul is willing to do such a thing!
Among the Donghuang human race, there are not many Nascent Souls. There are hundreds of them scattered to death, and there are not enough manpower. How could they do such a thing.
But he also walked through the yellow sand, and he didn't feel anything special about the yellow sand!
The only thing is that not a blade of grass can grow!
No matter how barren the desert is, there will always be something growing, even a weed.
But there is nothing here!
After entering Rhinoceros City, Ye Qingcheng paid two pieces of spiritual jade and gave the two packhorses a resting place!
Because only Rhinoceros City has a water source!
Li Nan and Ye Qingcheng found an inn to stay in.
The cost for the two of them was only one piece of spiritual jade!
Yes, not as good as two pack horses!
Because the packhorse must not only supply water, but also some first- and even second-level spiritual herbs.
Most of the monks walking here have walking beasts similar to pack horses in their hands.
At night, Li Nan found some yellow sand, which can be found everywhere!
Then I started observing and wanted to see if there was anything in it!
He even brought it to the Immortality Pearl and asked Meng Qiyi to help refine it!
After researching for a long time, I finally determined that this thing is ordinary sand!
There is nothing special inside at all!
But Ye Qingcheng’s words should not be without aim!
After all, something that is widely circulated cannot be groundless!
There were many Earth-covering Dragons in the past, and many Nascent Soul cultivators had captured them. This should also be recorded!
If only one or two Nascent Soul cultivators had harvested it, it might still be a rumor, but if there were more people, it would be unlikely.
Where does the problem occur?
It would be great if I could catch a ground-dwelling dragon and see it!
Unfortunately, according to Ye Qingcheng, the last time a ground-covering dragon appeared was a hundred years ago!
It is almost impossible for him to meet him!
…
After resting for a night, Li Nan and Ye Qingcheng began to wander around the city!
The monks here are very mobile, but the number can basically be stable at two to three thousand all year round!
Most of the monks are mortal monks, but there will also be some foundation builders and Zifu passing by.
There will also be some simple trading places inside, but Li Nan doesn't like the things sold!
Basically they are all second-order ones, with very few third-order ones, and even less fourth-order ones!
But there was something that attracted Li Nan's attention.
It is an earth-yellow thing, about the size of a palm, exuding a very weak earthy aura.
"Fellow Taoist, what is this?"
Li Nan pointed and asked.
The person setting up the stall is an old man. He is quite old and is only in the late stage of transformation!
"My little friend has good eyesight. The most precious thing in Lao Chan's stall is the scales of the famous Earth-covering Dragon!"
Li Nan: "..."
What about fooling children?
This thing is at the second level at most. To say any more would be to disgrace its aura!
The Earth-covering Dragon is a fifth-level monster. No matter how weak the scales on its body are, it cannot have such a weak aura!
And isn't the Earth-covering Dragon capable of rebirth? Even if any part of its body survives, theoretically a piece of scale armor should have this ability, right?
"Since fellow Taoist is not sincere in selling, I won't bother you!"
After Li Nan finished speaking, he was ready to leave!
The old man immediately shouted: "Wait a minute, fellow Taoist, we are destined to meet each other. You can ask about the price!"
"Even if you have the scales of a second-level high-grade monster, the value will not be more than two pieces of spiritual jade!"
Li Nan was talking too high, because the scales of some monster beasts had no effect and were not given away for free!
Let alone a second-level monster, it is too soft to be used as an insole!
The refined magical weapon is probably only a little bit harder than chopsticks. Let alone fighting with others, it may be broken even if it is swung a few times!
"Deal! As long as fellow Taoist offers the price, I will dare to sell! Two pieces of spiritual jade, this thing belongs to fellow Taoist!"
The old man directly gave the piece of scale armor to Li Nan, fearing that he would regret it!
Li Nan: "..."
Why is this scene so familiar?
When he was still on Earth, he had watched some videos and found items in the antique market. Last week's items could be said to be from the Western Zhou Dynasty. He asked for a million dollars and sold them for only ten yuan as a counter-offer!
Now I have encountered it myself!
Looking at the thing in his hand, he only had one thought in his mind.
Could it be that I was deceived?
The dignified true immortal who has survived the tribulation was deceived by a mortal monk?
If word spreads, it will be the biggest shame in the world of immortality!
Fortunately, my current cultivation level has not recovered, so I am not considered a tribulation monk!
Just two pieces of spiritual jade...
Taking it out and throwing it to the old man, Li Nan turned around and left!
The main reason is that he feels that there is a special aura on this scale!
Although his consciousness and magic power have not been restored, his perception ability belongs to the true immortal who has overcome the tribulation!
What can make the Tribulation Immortal feel abnormal must not be an ordinary thing!
After all, the true immortal transcending tribulation can already initially perceive the power of the law!
He is a man who can confront the will of heaven in the spiritual world with the power of law!
"Brother Li, did you buy such a thing?"
Ye Qingcheng was just shopping nearby and didn't pay attention. Li Nan had already made a deal!
"Well, I just feel a little special!"
"This is the scale armor from Tulongqiu. It is only the second-level low-grade armor. Although it is not common, it can still be found. It has no value in itself, and even the attack power is weak. After killing it, there is not even two ounces of meat. The monks encountered
They’re too lazy to do anything!”
I know Ye Qingcheng!
"It's okay, it's okay. I just spent two pieces of spiritual jade, so I'll take it as a lesson."
"Brother Li, why don't you follow me? There are some good third-level things here. If you need anything, I'll buy it for you!"
Li Nan: "..."
Third level...
Do you have anything you need?
"OK!"
He didn't refuse. Anyway, he had seen everything here, and there was nothing that caught his eye!
Just from this piece of scale armor, he felt an unusual aura, which was very weak, so weak that he couldn't even tell what it was!
Ye Qingcheng is specifically looking for third-level things.
Although she has third-level magic weapons, they are all left behind by her family. They do not match her attributes and cannot exert their maximum power.
She wants to find a third-level material to refine a natal magical weapon for herself!
Anyway, she estimated that it would be difficult for her to get to Zi Mansion in this life. The third-level natal magic weapon was enough for her use, and she didn't think about any future!
At the same time, I will also ask several foundation-building monks if they have any good healing elixirs, either high-grade second-grade or low-grade third-grade, mainly for the physical body.
After all, what Li Nan was talking about was that his physical body was severely damaged, and even his meridians have not recovered yet.
The result is obviously, no!
Even if there is, no one will take it out. Healing pills are a scarce commodity here!
After all, wars between monks are always the most mainstream among human beings!
The Ye family stayed well in their own spiritual mountain, but they could be attacked by others!
Probably due to bad luck, Ye Qingcheng failed to achieve both goals and did not find materials suitable for him.
Li Nan quietly sent the scale armor to the Immortality Pearl and let Meng Qiyi see what was special about it. He followed Ye Qingcheng without saying a word.
For the first time, I experienced the pain of a monk like Ye Qingcheng. He had to think about breaking a piece of spiritual jade into two pieces!
Even if he had just entered the Kyushu Continent, he had never been so poor!
I have always been a very wealthy practitioner, and I never lack any resources!
But he knows that this is the current situation of the low-level monks!
Even though Ye Qingcheng is still the core member of a foundation-building cultivator family!
Even she is like this...
But being poor is good, it can temper a person's willpower, and they are not even afraid of being poor. What difficulties will be able to defeat them in the future?
"Brother Li, I'm sorry, I didn't find what you were looking for."
After asking about all the stalls, Ye Qingcheng said.
"It's okay, it's okay. I'm not in a hurry. Anyway, with the protection of you, a foundation-building monk, I won't be in danger! Go back and rest first. We'll be on our way tomorrow morning!"
"Well, okay, then Brother Li should also go to bed early!"
…
The two points parted at the door.
Li Nan will not rest because Meng Qiyi has already researched it!
