Chapter 299: Night Visit to Luoxing to Discuss Changming
Long Qi and his companions were sent out of Qingwei Peak. In Lingxiang's words, the large population disturbed the flow of the spiritual veins of Qingwei Peak. Now it is summer, which is a good time for spiritual plants to grow, and they cannot waste time.
There are only three people in total, and Lingxiang now lives in the meeting hall. It's just two extra mouths. What kind of trouble can it cause?
However, Lingxiang insisted on driving them away. Not only that, she also sent Long Qi, Xinyi and Rendong's belongings to Youyuan Palace with someone else, but she herself lived alone in Xianyunju.
Could it be that they want to kick them out?
On the night when Long Qi and the other two were sent away, Lingxiang took Master Zhaoming's paper boat and went to Luoxingtan alone.
Luoxingtan is a deep pool in Jiuque Mountain. It is located deep in the earth and is the place where spiritual veins converge and diverge. It is also the residence of Luoli's family.
Since their last farewell at Fengwu Mountain, Luoli and his wife came to Yuanqing soon after, carrying Banxia's black iron plate. Shangqing Zhenren did not make things difficult for the two of them, but Luoli's identity was special, and it was difficult to keep him in a normal water dwelling, so he was placed in this place where spiritual veins converged.
This time they really put in a lot of thought. The Yuanqing Sect even specially built a house for the two of them. Now the couple and their newborn child have a place to live.
Luo Li was grateful to Yuan Qing, so he used his own skills to provide Yuan Qing with weapon forging skills, which was considered as repaying a favor.
In addition to this family of three, there is another person here, Liu Xia’s sister Liu Lan.
When Lingxiang first heard about Luoli and his wife, she had assumed the sect would place them in Luoxingtan. This place had constant flowing water and a confluence of spiritual veins. While it wasn't as good as the ocean, it was still a good place for Luoli to cultivate his spirit. Furthermore, the place was extremely secluded, and even though there were some spirits, they were generally kind.
Therefore, when Liu Lan was handed over to Xiaobai, he asked him to bring Liu Lan here, entrusted her to the two of them, and asked them to take good care of her.
Liu Lan has a kind nature and a mild temper, and Doukou has become much more stable since having a child. These days, the two of them talk and laugh and get along very harmoniously.
The Luoli family welcomed Lingxiang's visit with great hospitality. When Lingxiang saw their newborn child, she unexpectedly took out a pigeon feather coat from her pouch and gave it to him.
But don't underestimate the pigeon feather robe. Lingxiang had to "trick" it out of the Western Country during her travels.
The dove feather robe is woven from the feathers of a strange bird called the dove. Its greatest characteristic is that it is fireproof, allowing one to walk through blazing flames as if it were flat ground. If Master Xuanzhuang had possessed this robe, he wouldn't have needed to borrow the palm-leaf fan.
This kid is truly the first person who can make Lingxiang give up something willingly. However, this person is Lingxiang after all, so he can't take the thing for free.
Lingxiang came this time to ask Luoli something.
"You mean the eternal lamp?" Luo Li was puzzled. "Isn't that something that can be solved with a magic spell?"
Lingxiang shook her head: "The eternal lamp I want must be illuminated by the light of the three-legged golden crow."
"So, you mean to make a magical instrument that can absorb sunlight?"
Lingxiang nodded: "That's a good point, is there any solution?"
Luo Li frowned, seeming to be in great difficulty. "I've heard of a kind of firefly called the 蟥軋. It buzzes incessantly during the day and emits the sunlight it absorbs at night. But those fireflies are said to only exist on Mount Daiyu, which long ago sank to the North Pole. Furthermore, the lifespan of the 蟥軋 is said to be no more than a season."
Lingxiang had heard that Mount Daiyu sank because it lost its sacred tortoise. Besides, three months wasn't enough.
"Is there any other way?"
Luo Li pondered for a long time: "Fairy, do you need it urgently? What's the deadline?"
"Is three days enough?"
"Three days?" Luo Li was so shocked that he almost knocked over his teacup. "Let alone three days, even if it's three years, it might not work."
Lingxiang felt extremely disappointed after hearing this: "But if we delay for a while longer, it will be too late..."
Luo Li was puzzled: "Why is it so urgent?"
Lingxiang shook her head. That was a matter of great importance to the lives of all people, but the time was not right yet, so she couldn't speak up. If she said it now, she was afraid that it would disturb fate and bring about greater disaster.
Seeing Lingxiang speechless and anxious, Luoli sighed, "Looking at the fairy like this, it must be a very urgent matter. But right now, I really don't have any solution. However, I do have an alternative method, but..."
"What method? Just tell me." Lingxiang said hurriedly.
"Legend has it that when the world was first created, the five pure spiritual elements were born, each of which converged to form a pill. One of these was the Fire Spirit Pearl. The Three-legged Golden Crow was born from heaven and earth. Although it is extremely fiery, it is incomparable to the Fire Spirit Pearl. If I could obtain this object, I could find another way, but the Five Spirits are illusory and have disappeared. Even if I were to search for them, I'm afraid it would be too late..."
"It's still in time!" Lingxiang was very happy to hear that, and quickly took out something from her arms, which was the Fire Spirit Pearl.
Seeing this object, Luo Li couldn't help but wonder, this humble bead is the Fire Spirit Bead? But after a closer look, he was sure of it. However, he was very curious about how Ling Xiang got this treasure.
Lingxiang looked a little embarrassed. It would be hard to say that she had snatched it from Master Zhaoming.
"This is a long story, so there's no need to delve into it. But now that you have this thing, how can you make it work?"
"Don't underestimate this bead," Luo Li said, taking the Fire Spirit Bead from Ling Xiang's hand with his handkerchief. "Although this object is small, it contains pure spirit. If you unleash its power, it can resist the Golden Wheel."
Wow, it turns out I've been running around with the sun in my arms these days.
Lingxiang couldn't help but take a deep breath and pretended to be calm before asking Xiang Luoli, "Since we have the magic treasure, is it possible to do it in three days?"
Luo Li smiled and said, "Fairy, you're joking. Why three days? One day will do. This spirit pearl can replace the sun. It just needs some light. With a little guidance, it can be done. I just don't know how long you want the eternal lamp to burn."
"What's the difference?" Lingxiang was puzzled.
"Of course it's different. The Fire Spirit Pearl's pure spirit body, while seemingly gentle now, actually holds infinite potential. If we want to draw out its power, we'll have to think a bit about the mechanism, which will affect the materials used. After all, nothing in this world can withstand the power of the sun's flames for long, right?"
That's true. "Then... three years is okay?"
"Three years?" Luo Li was shocked again.
Not to mention three years, even three quarters of a second might not be enough.
Luo Li wanted to blurt it out, but seeing Lingxiang's anxious look, he couldn't bear it.
"It's not impossible, but..."
"Just what?"
"However, there is nothing in this world that can withstand the power of the sun's flames. Once the power of the Fire Spirit Pearl is drawn out, it will pour out continuously. Only by obtaining another spiritual treasure can its power be suppressed."
Lingxiang seemed to understand something after hearing this, and took out something from her arms.
"Is this what you are talking about?" It was the Water Spirit Pearl.
