139: Chapter 139 Saving the Azure Dragon
"The god-devouring stele?"
The Azure Dragon was also shocked; in this plane, the Spiritual Qi was almost exhausted, making it as difficult as ascending to heaven to Cultivate, and he truly could not understand how Xiao Yuchen had obtained so many special abilities, and even possessed the xuanyuan sword and the god-devouring stele.
"Correct. The function of the god-devouring stele is to store Primordial Spirits and ensure they remain undying, but there are two ways to store them.
The first way is for the Primordial Spirit to enter voluntarily; a Primordial Spirit that enters the god-devouring stele voluntarily can move freely and Cultivate inside.
The second way is for me to activate the god-devouring stele; the soul-devouring monument will release a massive suction force to forcibly draw Primordial Spirits within a certain range into it, and Primordial Spirits forcibly sucked into the soul-devouring monument will be in a sealed state and unable to move.
Of course, this absorption and control ability of the soul-devouring monument is related to its Rank; the higher the Rank, the wider the range of Primordial Spirits the soul-devouring monument can absorb and control, and the stronger its control ability.
The current god-devouring stele is at the Immortal Artifact Rank; it should be able to absorb any Primordial Spirit in the Cultivation World, but if you want to absorb the Primordial Spirit of an Immortal, I am afraid it would need to reach the Divine Artifact Rank."
"You mean for me to enter the god-devouring stele myself, and within the soul-devouring monument, my Primordial Spirit will not dissipate?" the Azure Dragon asked, somewhat excitedly.
"Correct. I will help you repair your Soul as soon as possible; as for the medicinal herbs to refine the muscle-regenerating and bone-melting pill, I will also do my best to find them, but your remains will have to stay here for now; once the muscle-regenerating and bone-melting pill is refined, I will come back here."
In truth, Xiao Yuchen could have placed the remains into his System Inventory; his System had no space limitations, but the System was something that could not be explained, and he absolutely could not expose the System.
"I, the Azure Dragon, have protected the people of Daxia for thousands of years; I never expected that in the end, it would be a citizen of Daxia who saved me," the Azure Dragon lamented with deep emotion.
"Senior Azure Dragon, there is no need for polite words; please enter the god-devouring stele first; I will keep the Dragon essence for you for the time being." As he said this, Xiao Yuchen took the god-devouring stele out of his System Inventory.
"Very well. Take this Storage Ring; there are some medicinal herbs inside, though I do not know if they will be useful." The Azure Dragon handed the Storage Ring to Xiao Yuchen.
This time, Xiao Yuchen did not refuse and accepted the Storage Ring.
"Oh, right, Senior Azure Dragon, this Junior has one more thing to ask."
"What is it? As long as I know, I will naturally not conceal it," the Azure Dragon readily agreed.
"It is like this: I suspect my parents also come from the Cultivation World; I just do not know if the Cultivation World where my parents are is the same plane as the Dragon Clan of yours; can you tell me where the entrance to the Cultivation World is?"
The area of Daxia is too vast; finding a Teleportation Array to the Cultivation World is not easy; if Senior Azure Dragon is willing to tell him, he could save a lot of time.
"This... very well."
The Azure Dragon agreed, tapped his right hand on Xiao Yuchen's forehead, and Sealed the location of the Teleportation Array within Xiao Yuchen's mind.
"I have already Sealed the method to reach the Cultivation World within your mind, but you cannot view it yet; when you reach the Soul Transformation Stage, the Seal will automatically be lifted.
I do this for your own good; the Cultivation World is too dangerous; there are many Cultivators with immense strength there; if you do not have a certain degree of self-protection ability, you are very likely to encounter danger if you go."
The Azure Dragon smiled slightly, then entered directly into the god-devouring stele.
Xiao Yuchen had no objections to Senior Azure Dragon's arrangements; because the System Space could not hold living things, Xiao Yuchen placed the soul-devouring monument into the Storage Ring, put the Dragon essence into his System Inventory, and then left the cave.
Upon leaving, Xiao Yuchen repaired the Rank 7 illusion Formation again; although he could not set up a Rank 7 Formation without a blueprint, the current Rank 7 Formation was already there; restoring it was not complicated.
After finishing all this, Xiao Yuchen left Qingmu Hall; the Great Sea Turtle had been guarding the cave entrance and had not left; seeing Xiao Yuchen come out, it hurriedly swam toward him.
"Master, what was inside? Did you obtain any treasures?" the Great Sea Turtle asked proactively.
"I had some gains; rest assured, I will not break my promise."
As he spoke, Xiao Yuchen took out another dashan pill, broke off half, and stuffed it directly into the Great Sea Turtle's mouth.
"This is your reward; the other half is yours too, but you cannot eat too much at once; I will keep the other half for you for the time being."
The Great Sea Turtle's contribution this time was indeed significant; without the turtle's intelligence, he would not have known that Qingmu Hall existed on the seabed, and thus he would not have been able to save the Azure Dragon.
Of course, Xiao Yuchen was also glad he had helped the Great Sea Turtle awaken its intelligence; otherwise, tonight's events would not have happened.
After eating half of the dashan pill, the Great Sea Turtle dove back to the seabed, while Xiao Yuchen returned to the Southern Immortal Sea via Sword Flight.
Why choose Sword Flight instead of flying through the air? Because Xiao Yuchen felt that Sword Flight was cooler and saved more energy.
When he returned to the shore, it was already past three in the morning; because he had just achieved a Breakthrough to the Great Perfection of the Golden Core Stage, Xiao Yuchen stayed on the shore to meditate and stabilize his cultivation.
Around six in the morning, Jiang Linglong and her group also arrived at the beach.
When Jiang Linglong saw that Xiao Yuchen had actually arrived here early, she was very surprised.
"Brother Yuchen, why are you here so early?"
"Because I never left; this is my first time at the seaside, so I really like the feeling of being by the sea," Xiao Yuchen said, finding a random excuse.
Jiang Linglong did not probe further, and the group boarded the fishing boat again to go out to sea for fishing.
"Linglong, do you go out to sea to fish every day? Did you sell all the fish you caught yesterday?" Xiao Yuchen asked, somewhat puzzled.
"Yes; I have nearly a million followers; as soon as I start broadcasting, the fans instantly snatch up the catch; but the fans keep asking why that Great Sea Turtle let me ride it, and who the person filming me is; it is so annoying."
"Haha, just fool them a little; anyway, the more mysterious you act, the more interested everyone will be in you, and you will have more and more followers," Xiao Yuchen said with a smile.
"That's right, I gained two hundred thousand followers in just one day yesterday; this is all thanks to Brother Yuchen."
Seeing his daughter chatting so happily with Xiao Yuchen, the captain stood to the side and sighed continuously; from the bottom of his heart, he naturally hoped his daughter could be happy, but he knew it was impossible for his daughter to be with Xiao Yuchen.
"Hmm, as long as you are happy."
This Jiang Linglong was indeed very beautiful, and her smile was charming; although Xiao Yuchen did not have any other thoughts about Jiang Linglong, chatting with a beauty was not bad.
The group returned to the same sea area from yesterday to conduct fishing activities; Jiang Linglong was live-streaming the entire time, and Xiao Yuchen was responsible for holding the phone, but unexpected events like yesterday's did not occur.
During the fishing process, Xiao Yuchen occasionally used his Divine Sense to probe the surrounding situation; he wanted to know if the Japanese people had returned.
A day passed quietly; Xiao Yuchen still preferred this kind of life free from worldly disputes, but this peaceful life was not suitable for him right now.
Once he resolved the matters here, Xiao Yuchen would need to find herbs to repair his Soul and refine the muscle-regenerating and bone-melting pill; once he reached the Soul Transformation Stage, he would go to the Cultivation World to take a look.
He believed that as long as he had the System, even if he went to the Cultivation World or even the Immortal Realm, he would be able to thrive.
