Chapter 117 Qingluan Arrives
Zhulong has lived for so long, but he has never felt so itchy in his heart. He asked Ning Ruoxi to put forward another condition.
However, Ning Ruoxi didn't know what conditions to propose. Zhulong could not leave Penglai Mountain. It needed to stay here to guard the long river of time.
This is how Zhulong spent the long years.
The only thing that accompanies it is endless loneliness, and it can only pass the time by sleeping.
The higher your cultivation level is, the more you cannot improve it just by wanting to practice.
"Zhulong, then you owe me a condition. I am leaving."
"Okay!" Zhulong stretched out his dragon claw and lightly touched Ning Ruoxi's brow. "I left a trace of my aura on you. If you come to Penglai Mountain next time, you won't feel the pressure on the ladder anymore."
Ning Ruoxi bowed to Zhulong, "Thank you."
"Well, let's go!" As soon as Zhulong finished speaking, the sky, which was originally half night and half day, suddenly turned into day again, and Zhulong's figure disappeared.
A staircase leading down the mountain appeared in front of Ning Ruoxi, surrounded by clouds and mist, like a fairyland.
Lin Shuang returned to Ning Ruoxi's sea of consciousness. She looked at the mark in Ning Ruoxi's sea of consciousness and said, "Disciple, is this mark left by Qing Luan?"
"Yes." Ning Ruoxi was ready to go down the mountain. She tried, but still couldn't fly, so she could only walk down the mountain.
These three thousand long steps are truly extraordinary.
"Disciple, I will help you erase this mark! It is not a good thing for this mark to remain in your sea of consciousness."
Ning Ruoxi nodded, "Thank you, Master."
Lin Shuang's soul has recovered to its peak state, but it cannot leave Ning Ruoxi's sea of consciousness, otherwise it will attract the attention of the Heavenly Dao just like last time.
With Lin Shuang's help, the mark planted by Qing Yan became fainter and fainter. Lin Shuang did not completely erase the mark. "Disciple, I left a trace of this mark so that Qing Luan would not notice anything wrong. However, this mark is no longer a threat to you. Even if it is, nothing will happen with me in your sea of consciousness."
Ning Ruoxi came to the foot of the mountain. Qing Yan was not there, and no one knew where he had gone. Ning Ruoxi carefully explored the island. If she encountered a powerful sea beast, she could only hide on the stairs of Penglai Mountain again.
However, there was not a single sea beast on Penglai Island. Ning Ruoxi understood that it was probably because the opening time of Penglai Island had ended and the sea beasts had all left Penglai Island.
"Then how do I leave Penglai Island?" Ning Ruoxi was in a dilemma. Qing Yan had never told her how to leave Penglai Island before.
There are no living creatures on Penglai Island right now, but Ning Ruoxi can search for it. She remembers Qingquan mentioned that there are Sea God Fruits on Penglai Island, which are helpful for cultivation.
Ning Ruoxi toured all over Penglai Island. There were many kinds of trees on Penglai Island, which was no different from those uninhabited islands.
She did find some fruit in the forest behind the Zhulong statue, which was the only fruit-bearing tree on the island.
Lin Shuang didn't recognize the fruit, so Ning Ruoxi simply picked all of them and stored them away, waiting to ask Qing Yan about it when she met him.
Ning Ruoxi sat cross-legged in front of the statue of Zhulong. She looked up at the sky. From here, she could still see the outside sky. "Today's moon is half-moon. Qing Yan said that Penglai Island will open again when the moon is full."
"Maybe I can leave then, but I still have to be careful of sea beasts. Without Qing Yan by my side, those sea beasts are likely to attack me."
…….
After about seven days, Ning Ruoxi could feel the changes taking place in Penglai Island. The spiritual energy here suddenly became manic.
Penglai Island is about to open.
Ning Ruoxi couldn't go to the exit of Penglai Island right now, otherwise she would definitely come face to face with the sea beast, so she simply hid in the woods.
With the Nine Palaces and Eight Diagrams Card on her, even a ninth-level sea beast would not be able to detect her breath unless one looked with the naked eye.
A gap appeared in the wall above Penglai Island, and the power of Taiyin emerged. The black crescent rune in Ning Ruoxi's body suddenly became active, and Ning Ruoxi could only suppress this restlessness.
The Taiyin power here has forgotten to ask Zhulong what is going on.
Before Ning Ruoxi could think more, a sea beast appeared. A ninth-order sea beast entered Penglai Island. Fortunately, Ning Ruoxi was not guarding the entrance and exit of Penglai Island.
More and more sea beasts appeared and approached the statue of Zhulong.
Ning Ruoxi couldn't use her clairvoyance, otherwise the high-level sea beasts would definitely notice that someone was spying on her. She could only rely on her eyes to see if Qing Yan had also come.
When the last sea beast entered Penglai Island, Ning Ruoxi did not see Qing Yan, but she did find five Qingluans.
Qingluan also came to the statue of Zhulong to pay homage.
"What should I do?" Ning Ruoxi didn't know whether Qingluan recognized her, but if she missed this opportunity, she would have to wait in Penglai Island for another month.
Next time, she will face the same choice.
"Disciple, I can help you activate the aura left in your body by Zhulong, but it is not certain whether you will be mistaken for a human by the sea beasts." Lin Shuang saw Ning Ruoxi's difficulty and spoke immediately.
Ning Ruoxi nodded, "Master, give it a try! It's better than wasting time here."
"good!"
After he finished speaking, Ning Ruoxi felt that there was no change in herself, but there was an aura of the Candle Dragon on her body.
Zhulong's aura was somewhat overbearing, so Lin Shuang controlled the aura within a very small range to ensure that it would not cause too much commotion.
Ning Ruoxi walked out of the forest and suddenly realized a problem. Flying is prohibited on Penglai Island. How can she leave through the boundary?
After much thought, Ning Ruoxi could only walk towards Qingluan.
On the way, a sea beast discovered Ning Ruoxi's human face, but the aura emanating from Ning Ruoxi was that of a monster.
More and more sea beasts noticed Ning Ruoxi, but they did not move. Finally, Ning Ruoxi walked in front of Qingluan.
Ning Ruoxi said to Qingluan: "Do you know me? I went to the Qingluan tribe a few days ago. Senior Qing Yan took me there."
A blue phoenix circled around Ning Ruoxi with a vigilant look on its face. Ning Ruoxi thought for a moment and took out a bead from her arms. It was the water-repellent bead that Qingquan gave her.
After seeing the water-repellent beads, the Qingluan in front of Ning Ruoxi relaxed its vigilance a little, and its eyes became gentle.
Ning Ruoxi continued, "Can you take me away from Penglai Island and go to meet Qing Yan in your tribe?"
Qingluan in front of her nodded to Ning Ruoxi.
This blue phoenix has the strength of an eighth-level sea beast, and the other four blue phoenixes are third-level sea beasts, corresponding to the foundation-building period of human cultivators.
Among sea beasts, those who have cultivated to the third stage are considered adults.
