Chapter 142: The poisonous dragon at the bottom of the lake, invites you to join!
They sat opposite each other, drinking and watching the many members of the Nine Islands Alliance fighting each other in the stands.
Punches and kicks flew, spells were used, and everyone tried their best to fight for a cup of Luoxia wine.
His eyes narrowed slightly and fell on the cup in his hand. Lu Feng shook his head and laughed in silence.
once Upon a time,
When he was young and practicing in the Verdant Tower, he was full of energy and was dragged by fellow wizard apprentices to participate in some activities to compete for resources.
But in the blink of an eye, his identity has changed and he has become the person sitting on the stage, watching others perform and compete.
Such changes are all due to strength, which is interesting.
He and Jiuxiao are already the ceiling in this small space of the Red Leaf Society and the Nine Islands Alliance.
A single thought can determine the life and death of countless people.
After three rounds of drinking,
The competition and battle off the stage gradually came to an end.
The winner was the center of attention and accepted the reward of Luoxia wine with great joy. He drank it in big gulps, refined it in public, and improved his cultivation.
The loser sighed and looked unwilling, but could only leave the stage in disgrace.
With the various forms of life as side dishes, Luoxia wine is indeed good and has a unique taste.
At the end of the banquet, Jiuxiao took Lu Feng and left early.
Strolling into the depths of Qiongxia Island, you will arrive at the place where Jiuxiao usually practices.
There are gurgling streams and puddles everywhere, and it is nourished by the water spirit veins in the Jiuxiao Bi Bo spiritual realm all year round, and it is full of spiritual energy.
After arriving here, Jiu Xiao talked with Lu Feng for a while, and finally said:
"Fellow Daoist Luo, besides inviting you to the banquet and drinking, I have another thing I want to trouble you with!"
"Oh, what's the matter? Tell me first!"
Lu Feng heard this and smiled slightly, not surprised.
He received Jiuxiao's invitation and was ready to attend the banquet.
As for whether he could help Jiuxiao, he would have to wait for Jiuxiao to say it and for him to think about it before making a decision.
If it was a small matter that could be done easily, Lu Feng would naturally not refuse.
If it is too troublesome or beyond his ability, Lu Feng, who has always been cautious, will not joke with his own life.
Glancing at Lu Feng's serious expression, Jiuxiao felt a little relieved. It seemed that Senior Lu Feng was quite easy to talk to.
After a pause, Jiuxiao smiled and said:
“Fellow Daoist, this matter may sound troublesome, but it is actually not that difficult! If you are willing to help, it will be a piece of cake! If you can solve this matter, Jiu Xiao will definitely not be stingy with the reward!”
Jiuxiao first gave Lu Feng a guarantee, and then told him:
"This story started a hundred years ago. At that time, Qiandao Lake was not called Qiandao Lake, but Bilongtan. At that time, I was just a high-grade Taoist child, traveling around with my master, Fairy Qiongxia."
"When we arrived at the Green Dragon Pond, we were blocked by a poisonous dragon that had reached the spiritual realm. The poisonous dragon was entrenched in the Green Dragon Pond, and its cultivation was so advanced that it had already reached the water spiritual vein. When it saw my master's appearance, it was shocked by his beauty and threatened to make us submit to him and become his concubines in the Dragon Palace."
"How could my master, Fairy Qiongxia, obey? So she fought a fierce battle with the poisonous dragon in Bilongtan."
"In the end, my master, Fairy Qiongxia, was slightly better, but the difference was not big, and she was unable to kill the poisonous dragon. The poisonous dragon took the opportunity to escape back to the Dragon Palace at the bottom of the pool. My master chased into the bottom of the pool, but was accidentally injured by the poisonous dragon's venom."
"The poisonous dragon used its own life force to condense a mouthful of venom, which was incredibly powerful. Even my master, Fairy Qiongxia, could not resist it. Her body was severely poisoned, and the poison even invaded her spiritual realm, affecting the operation of the spiritual realm space! My master knew that he was seriously injured, so he desperately used the family sealing spell and used his own spiritual realm to seal the poisonous dragon in the Dragon Palace in the water. He also asked me to guard here and often maintain the seal of the Dragon Palace."
"The battle between Master and the poisonous dragon was earth-shattering. The large island in the Bilong Lake was also torn into pieces during the battle between the two. As a result, Bilong Lake was renamed Qiandao Lake. I gathered the mortals nearby and developed my power, thus forming the current Nine Island Alliance!"
“I didn’t expect that the Nine Islands Alliance had such a long history!”
Lu Feng listened to Jiuxiao's story and was amazed at Jiuxiao's experience.
Although this period of history sounds simple, Jiuxiao has definitely experienced many hardships along the way.
"Fellow Daoist, speaking of this, could it be that the reason you invited me here is related to the Dragon Palace of the poisonous dragon at the bottom of the lake?"
Jiuxiao's meaning was obvious, and Lu Feng also spoke frankly.
“Yes, my master, Fairy Qiongxia, has sealed the Poison Dragon Palace for a hundred years. Although I often maintain the seal, due to the wear and tear of time, the original seal is now in danger.
"It's almost impossible to continue with my own strength. It just so happened that during this time, I met a Taoist friend who has a noble character and a deep understanding of justice. So I would like to ask for your help!"
Jiu Xiao asked, while also telling Lu Feng the part he needed help with.
It's not difficult. You just need to go to the bottom of the lake with Jiuxiao and use some spiritual power to strengthen and maintain the seal on the Poison Dragon Palace.
The poisonous dragon was sealed in the Dragon Palace. Until the seal was broken, there was no danger on this trip.
"It's feasible! However, I always believe in fair trade. Now that you've given me the commission, you should also tell me the reward you're prepared! If the reward is not enough, you can't hire me!"
Lu Feng thought about it and agreed.
After hearing Jiuxiao's words, Lu Feng realized that his neighbor actually had such a depth bomb hidden in his house.
If one day the seal of the Poisonous Dragon Palace is broken, the poisonous dragon will rush out of the palace.
If Lu Feng cannot defeat the poisonous dragon, he will probably have to take Hongye to choose a new base.
In order to avoid such things from happening, Lu Feng decided to help Jiuxiao.
However, before going into the water with Jiuxiao, he still had to negotiate the remuneration with Jiuxiao in advance.
Lu Feng doesn't want to be taken advantage of by Jiuxiao for free.
Seeing that Lu Feng agreed, Jiuxiao's smile became even brighter, and a huge stone in his heart was finally put down.
As for Lu Feng's request for compensation, Jiuxiao did not feel offended.
Lu Feng's frank words made Jiuxiao feel more at ease.
"Here is the reward I prepared for you, fellow Taoist. Take a look!"
Jiuxiao handed over a jade slip with confidence on his face.
This jade slip records the spiritual materials and medicines carefully prepared by her Nine Islands Alliance. The quantity is not small and is enough to invite Lu Feng to take action.
Lu Feng took the jade slip, glanced at it carefully, and saw the number of spiritual materials recorded on the jade slip. A look of disappointment appeared on his face.
Jiuxiao took out a lot of spiritual materials and medicines from the warehouse of the Nine Islands Alliance. The quantity was not small and the quality was not bad either.
Although most of them are water-based materials, it is more than enough to hire a Taoist priest who has reached the spiritual realm.
Practicing into the spiritual realm is even more beneficial.
But these materials disappointed Lu Feng greatly.
In the wizarding world, Lu Feng has been in charge of the Trandi sub-continent for several years. During this period, he has maintained transactions with Ludens, the captain of the Thunder ship.
While sailing on the sea, Ludens obtained countless extraordinary materials, the most of which were water materials produced in the sea.
In addition, Lu Feng often purchases low-level extraordinary materials, so every time Ludens sails past the Trandi secondary continent, he treats Lu Feng as a scrap yard.
Various low-level water materials were sold to Lu Feng in piles.
Anyway, these materials were picked up along the way during the voyage, and I can earn some magic stones by selling them to Lu Feng.
If they are kept in the cabin all the time, in the second half of the voyage, these ordinary water materials will be thrown into the sea to free up cabin space.
Therefore, Lu Feng still has a large number of low-level water materials in his hands. The price given by Jiuxiao is only worth one or two hundred magic stones in Lu Feng's eyes.
Incredibly cheap.
This is the disparity in the world.
Lu Feng could not tell Jiu Xiao about these facts. After thinking for a while, Lu Feng returned the jade slip to Jiu Xiao. He smiled and said:
"This reward is not enough to please me, let me make an offer!"
Seeing the change in Lu Feng's expression, Jiu Xiao's heart skipped a beat. When she heard what Lu Feng said at this moment, her heart sank even more.
Oh no, the reward I offered was based on the price of a normal spiritual realm Taoist priest, but Lu Feng is an old senior.
He is willing to live in seclusion in this remote place. He must have made a fortune somewhere and has no shortage of stuff like me.
Jiu Xiao's mind was full of thoughts, but he didn't dare to show his fear, so he could only bite the bullet and ask:
"I don't know what kind of reward you need, but as long as Jiu Xiao can afford it, I'm willing to give it to you!"
"Okay, that's quite frank! Then I won't be polite!"
Lu Feng looked at Jiuxiao and made a decision in his heart, so he said, "I wonder if Daoist Jiuxiao has any intention of bringing the Nine Islands Alliance to join our Red Leaf Society!"
"What?"
As soon as Lu Feng said this, Jiuxiao's beautiful eyes widened and she let out an incredible scream.
Jiuxiao originally thought that Senior Lu Feng looked down upon the spiritual materials and medicines she offered, and after rejecting her reward, he wanted to ask for a huge amount of precious items from the Nine Islands Alliance.
But who knew that as soon as Lu Feng opened his mouth, he would bomb like a powerful snake trying to swallow an elephant.
Not only did he ask for some money, he even wanted to take the entire Nine Islands Alliance.
For a moment, the atmosphere between Lu Feng and Jiu Xiao fell silent.
Jiuxiao's expression changed, and the green spiritual realm within his body began to unfold.
Although Jiuxiao knew that he was no match for Senior Lu Feng, at the critical moment of life and death.
Jiuxiao is also a man of courage and bravery, and dares to risk his life and fight to the death.
Feeling the tense atmosphere, Lu Feng took a step back, found a stone table under a tree and sat down, took out a pot of tea from the spiritual realm, poured a cup of tea for Jiu Xiao, and then said with a smile:
"Fellow Daoist Jiuxiao, don't be anxious. Come and sit down and have a cup of tea. Listen to me first, and it won't be too late to make a decision later!"
Looking at Lu Feng who was completely defenseless and pouring tea for her with a smile on his face, Jiuxiao hesitated for a moment and sat down opposite Lu Feng.
After calming down, Jiu Xiao glared at Lu Feng and complained:
"Fellow Daoist Luo, are you making fun of me, Jiu Xiao? I just asked you to help reinforce the seal, but you asked me for the entire Jiu Dao Alliance. Even if it's business, there's no such deal without any cost!"
Lu Feng laughed and said:
"When you asked me to do something just now, I didn't have such an idea. It was only when I saw you preparing the reward just now that this idea suddenly came to my mind.
Fellow Daoist Jiuxiao, please don't blame me. I am being rude! Please forgive me first. This pot of tea was given to me by a friend. The water used to make tea comes from the spiritual water of the deep sea cold spring. Drinking a cup of this spiritual water can stimulate your spirit, and the rich spiritual energy contained in it can also improve your cultivation a little bit!"
Lu Feng picked up the teacup, drank it in big gulps, and apologized to Jiuxiao.
After hearing what Lu Feng said, Jiuxiao's beautiful eyes glowed with divine light. She stretched out her jade hand and scooped up a drop of deep sea cold spring spiritual water from the cup.
After carefully testing the water spirit vein, there was no poison that could harm people. As Lu Feng said, it did contain pure water vapor.
Picking up the teacup, Jiuxiao took a sip of the tea and tasted the flavor of the deep sea cold spring water.
"This, this spiritual spring actually has such an effect!"
The next moment, Jiuxiao widened her beautiful eyes again, and under Lu Feng's gaze, she silently drank the whole cup of tea.
The effect of Lingquan spring water is even better than the Luoxia wine that she carefully brewed and stored in the cellar for a hundred years.
Drinking one cup can equal the effect of gathering energy from the nine heavens for several months.
Seeing Jiuxiao finish her tea, Lu Feng smiled and filled it up for her again.
Lu Feng still has a lot of this stuff in his hands. There is a small pond in the Qingmu Spiritual Realm that is specifically used to hold this water.
If Lu Feng had not asked General Shenwei to stay beside the pond, the pond in the spiritual realm would have been turned into bath water by the white snake, frost ice lizard, and other extraordinary magical beasts that love water and cold.
Jiuxiao accepted all the offers and drank the spiritual spring water without caring about his manners, while he was also thinking about the possibility of joining the Red Leaf Society.
Seeing the change in Jiuxiao's expression, Lu Feng continued to add:
"The spiritual spring water in my hand is of good quality, isn't it? It's even more effective than the Luoxia wine you carefully brewed. The materials in your reward are worth at most twenty cups of spiritual spring water. Do you think I would work for you for such a small amount of materials? In my eyes, your reward is far from enough!"
He drank another cup of spiritual spring water, and the coldness in the spring water spread, and there was a hint of frost on the ends of Jiuxiao's hair.
Listening to Lu Feng's words, Jiu Xiao also realized the gap in wealth between himself and Senior Lu Feng.
Looking at the teacup in her hand, she realized that she had already drunk six cups of spiritual spring water, and Lu Feng kept pouring water for her without any regret.
There seemed to be a huge space in the small teapot, and it seemed that the spiritual spring water inside it would never be emptied.
Judging from Lu Feng's attitude, it seemed as if he was going to starve her to death with this simple spiritual spring water.
The rich are so inhumane!
However, under Lu Feng's method of throwing money around, Jiuxiao also had some thoughts in his mind.
"Then what benefit can I get from bringing the Nine Islands Alliance?"
Hearing this, Lu Feng knew that Jiu Xiao was moved, and laughed:
"Fellow Daoist Jiuxiao, if you join my Red Leaf Society, I am willing to provide you with spiritual materials and spiritual herbs that are sufficient for you to cultivate into a wood spiritual vein!"
Whatever Lu Feng said was Jiuxiao’s hundred years of accumulation.
"Do you know how many resources are needed to cultivate a wood spirit vein?"
Hearing this, Jiuxiao stood up in disbelief, bit his lips tightly, and asked loudly.
She had endured a hundred years of hard work in Qiandao Lake before she was able to develop a water spirit vein, but when Lu Feng spoke now, it was all about her hundred years of hard work. Jiuxiao didn't dare to believe what Lu Feng said.
She felt from the bottom of her heart that Lu Feng was lying to her!
