Chapter 98: Immortal Stone? Monkey King? But she didn’t…
But she was not in a hurry at all. It was Dong Hai who begged her, so why should she be in a hurry?
However, the lives of the two dragons must still be saved.
Fu Li replied to Taiyi Zhenren: I still have great use for those two dragons, please show mercy, spare their lives, and send them to Mount Emei.
But she thought about it, changed her mind, and sent a new message: Forget it, no need to send it, Lingzhuzi and I will return tomorrow.
Taiyi Zhenren on the other end typed for a long time, but in the end only sent three words: Got it.
This arrogant Taoist priest clearly wanted a disciple, but he refused to say it directly to her.
As for the two dragons, she suddenly remembered that playing with water was a natural skill for dragons. Wouldn't it be a shame to just send these strong laborers back?
After leaving Luo Xuan's place, Fu Li was just thinking of another excuse to avoid the account books when she saw Na Zhen Tongzi running over: "Senior Sister, the master wants you to come over."
Fu Li paused, feeling nervous for a moment.
The next moment she realized that the teacher should know that she was just making excuses. Since he let her out, he would not call her back to face the piles of jade slips and account books.
"But what happened?" Fu Li asked worriedly.
Nazhen said, "Nothing special. Someone just told me about a large stone with a fairy fetus inside. The master wants you to go and see it."
Fu Li was indeed surprised when she heard this: "At this time, there are still immortal fetuses born and raised by nature?"
By this time, the innate spiritual energy between heaven and earth had long since dissipated, and all living beings were dependent on their parents for their birth. Even if an immortal fetus truly existed, could it still be born successfully in today's environment?
"Let's go and take a look."
Fu Li excitedly went with Na Zhen Tongzi to the quiet room where Zhao Gongming usually practiced. Ling Zhuzi was also there, standing by with his arms folded, silent and reticent, with an air of keeping everyone at arm's length.
Zhao Gongming, along with a few boys and fellow disciples of the Jiejiao sect who had rushed over after hearing the news, were surrounding a huge stone. They were chatting with each other and occasionally making sounds of admiration or regret.
Fu Li strode over to Ling Zhuzi and asked, "What's going on?"
Ling Zhuzi raised his chin towards the big rock and said, "This immortal stone gave birth to a natural spiritual fetus. It was discovered by a Qigong practitioner who traveled to Dongsheng Shenzhou and was on a mountain with many monkeys.
He found it curious, so he sent it to Teacher Zhao via his cell phone, hoping to exchange it for a Nine Revolutions Resurrection Pill.
While others were curious, Zhao Gongming was evaluating the price.
He was still holding a cell phone in his hand, with the camera always pointed at the fairy stone, trying to let the people on the other side of the phone see clearly that they definitely did not take the opportunity to replace it.
Fuli's eyelids jumped: Dongsheng Shenzhou, a mountain full of monkeys, a huge rock that gave birth to an immortal fetus...
Isn’t this Monkey King’s script?
Could it be that, in addition to the prehistoric times and the Investiture of the Gods, this world also incorporates Journey to the West?
It's very possible. After all, these three works are often merged together in the world of online novels.
She walked forward a few steps and looked at the fairy stone carefully. Zhao Gongming was bargaining with the person opposite through the phone.
"A natural immortal fetus is indeed rare, but that's all it is. In today's world, let's not even talk about whether this immortal fetus can be born successfully. Even if it can, how many natural treasures will I have to sacrifice?"
But I saw that the fairy stone was covered with moss, and the plants that were supposed to grow on it had been pulled out.
But Fu Li had followed Zhao Gongming for many years and had developed a pair of sharp eyes. Just from the remaining spiritual charm, he could tell that the plants that were pulled out were magical herbs such as Lingzhi, ginseng, Shouwu, and Huangjing, and they were quite old.
When I think about the original Journey to the West, the fairy stone that gave birth to Monkey King was indeed surrounded by beautiful flowers and herbs, and blue phoenixes and cranes often landed on it.
Look closely at the black and white spots on the moss, aren’t they dried bird droppings?
It’s right, it’s right again.
Zhao Gongming had already negotiated with the other party that this immortal stone, plus a thousand years of cultivation, would be exchanged for a Nine-Turn Resurrection Pill.
"Zhao Bao, go get a Nine Revolutions Resurrection Pill from Junior Sister Wuyun."
"only."
The treasure-calling boy took his orders and left, returning a short while later with a two-inch-tall jade bottle. Zhao Gongming handed the bottle over, and the other party, after inspecting the contents and confirming they were the Nine-Turn Resurrection Pill, concluded the transaction.
Lingzhi Xian asked, "Brother Zhao, what are you going to do with this immortal stone? You're not really going to spend a fortune nurturing it, are you?"
The tall and sturdy Xiongbi Immortal said in a deep voice, "I've already bought it, what should I do if I don't take care of it? It's a life, and it's also an immortal fetus. I can't just throw it away, right?"
Lingzhixian is the registered disciple of Tongtian Sect Master, and usually practices on the small island near Jinao Island.
Because she is the incarnation of immortal ganoderma, she is naturally good at cultivating various types of ganoderma.
Long before Fu Li became Zhao Gongming's apprentice, she often asked Zhao Gongming to ship goods. The main products were Ganoderma lucidum and Ganoderma lucidum nectar.
She also has a neighbor, Xiong Binxian, whose name suggests he's a black bear. Xiong Binxian loves honey and is skilled at tasting it, but aside from growing bamboo, he doesn't have any other special skills.
Compared with Lingzhixian, Xiongbinxian is a typical example of earning less and spending more, and often has no money to buy honey.
Later, when the Emeishan online shopping system was successfully established, Lingzhixian recommended him to apply for the job so that he could earn more money and pay off his honey debt as soon as possible.
Originally, Zhao Gongming made him a switchboard operator because he had a simple and honest character and was very patient. He did a very good job and paid off all the debts he owed to Lingzhixian after one year.
One day, Fuli was returning from Jinjiang and ran into Zhao Gongming. After greeting each other and chatting, Fuli learned that Zhao Gongming was good at growing bamboo and suggested that he cultivate bamboo bonsai and sell them online.
Xiong Binxian has a simple and honest personality and he trusts anyone who treats him well.
Zhao Gongming had given him a good job, so his favorability was naturally very high. This favorability also benefited his disciple Fu Li, making Xiong Binxian deeply agree with her proposal.
After that, he often traveled back and forth between Mount Emei and Jin'ao Island, working as a switchboard operator while cultivating bamboo bonsai. He really got into the business and sold a lot of spirit stones in the past two years, so he no longer had to worry about not being able to afford honey.
Perhaps because of his honest nature, Xiong Binxian is kinder than most disciples of the three religions.
It was because he could sense that there was something wrong with Lingzhixian's words that he spoke hastily, hoping to arouse Zhao Gongming's sympathy.
Seeing Fu Li coming over, he even called out to her, hoping to get her support: "Nephew, don't you agree?"
Zhao Gongming rubbed his chin, examining the immortal stone, and placed his palm against it, feeling the beating of the immortal fetus at its core. Hearing the Xiong Xiong Immortal pulling his disciple along as a raft, he subconsciously frowned and glared at him warningly.
Xiong Binxian smiled awkwardly and didn't dare to say anything more, but he still winked at Fu Li where Zhao Gongming couldn't see.
Fu Li gave him a reassuring look, walked briskly to Zhao Gongming's side, and asked curiously, "Teacher, did you sense it? Is there really a fairy fetus inside?"
"Indeed." Zhao Gongming nodded, his tone somewhat surprised. "Logically speaking, this immortal fetus was born too late and hasn't absorbed much innate spiritual energy. Its aura shouldn't be so active."
Fu Li said, "Heaven is merciful and compassionate. Perhaps he's using someone else's hand to send this immortal fetus to our Emei Mountain, giving it a chance to be born. Doesn't this align with the teachings of our Jie Sect?"
——To seize a glimmer of hope for all living beings.
She said this without blushing or breathing heavily, and was not afraid of others' speculation.
As the catastrophe of heaven and earth draws near, the mysteries of heaven gradually become confused, and even a sage would have to work hard to deduce the mysteries of heaven. But who would bother a sage for such an immortal fetus with such an uncertain future?
Lingzhixian shook his head in amusement and said to Fuli, "My nephew is still too kind-hearted."
But she understood Fu Li's intention to keep the immortal fetus. In addition, Xiong Binxian had been her neighbor for many years and also wanted to save the immortal fetus' life, so she gave up the idea of using the immortal stone to refine weapons.
The immortal fetus is still in the gestation stage. If the immortal stone outside is stripped away, it will definitely die.
The dead immortal fetus is a good material for refining elixirs.
Compared to spending countless rare treasures to raise an immortal fetus that may or may not be born, and separating the immortal stone from the immortal fetus to make two good materials, most people would choose the latter.
After all, the former is likely to lose everything, while the latter is much more cost-effective.
If the immortal fetus wrapped in the immortal stone in front of him was not likely to be Monkey King, Fu Li would probably choose the latter after weighing the pros and cons.
Zhao Gongming said, "If you want to keep it, keep it. Take good care of it. When it is born, I will make it your disciple. Spiritual creatures born and raised naturally have good aptitude."
Fu Li hugged his arm and rubbed it, acting coquettishly: "Teacher is the best!"
She waved to Ling Zhuzi again: "Come and see our disciple."
Ling Zhuzi curled his lips and said, "It's not even a matter of time yet. Let's wait until he can really transform."
Having said that, he still walked over.
Fu Li grabbed his hand and pressed it on the fairy stone together. The "thumping" sound of his heartbeat immediately came into her ears through her palm.
Indeed, as Zhao Gongming had said, this immortal fetus was so active it didn't seem like the product of a dying innate spirit. Even Lingzhuzi was momentarily surprised before finally taking a serious look at the stone.
This glance was so impressive that his eyes widened: "Is this... a multicolored stone?"
He quickly waved his hand to clear the moss from the fairy stone, revealing its true appearance. Red, green, black, yellow, and white intertwined, what else could it be but a multicolored stone?
There is only one piece of five-colored stone in the world, and that is the one left after Nuwa refined the stone to repair the sky.
Fu Li was also stunned for a moment, then she remembered that the one in "Journey to the West" was just a fairy stone nurtured by the essence of heaven and earth, but in the prehistoric flow, the fairy stone that gave birth to Monkey King was not the five-colored stone?
This is really fate!
Lingzhuzi's attitude towards the fairy stone changed immediately, because this stone was refined by Nuwa, and the fact that it could give birth to a fairy fetus must be because it shared the merit of repairing the sky.
To round it off, this is someone from the Wahuang Palace.
