Chapter 432: Entering the Dragon Palace

Laiyang Prefecture.

The residence of Lieutenant General Chen.

Inside the secret room.

Two fifth-level bloodline people were kneeling respectfully in front of a statue. The statue looked like a lizard, but it had spikes on its back. It looked ferocious and terrifying, especially its eyes. Even though it was just a statue, it exuded a terrifying aura.

If someone who knows about cults is here, he will know that this is a branch of the Demon God Cult. Most sects of this kind believe in ancient monsters and gain power or longevity from them.

The two lieutenant generals Chen and Yu, as well as several lieutenant generals in the state capital, plus the garrison commander Jin, were all members of the cult. Of course, they were not originally members, but now that the chaotic times were approaching, it was easy for them to join in, be protected, and grow.

Tsk tsk.

Surrounded by waves of strange energy.

The two lieutenant generals suddenly felt a lot younger.

The reverent kneeling ends.

Back to the cubicle.

The two lieutenant generals Chen and Yu discussed the matter. "That little brat named Shen is stubborn. He is not interested in skills, resources, or girls. We can't win him over. If we let him grow, he will become an obstacle and trouble once he stands on the opposite side."

"If all else fails, we'll just use force. Our sect has plenty of ways to make this guy with extraordinary potential obey us."

Lieutenant General Yu frowned, "This guy is quite powerful. I'm afraid it will be difficult for the two of us to force him to surrender."

Lieutenant General Chen nodded, "I have already passed the news to the state capital, and I believe there will be a response soon. Such a young fifth-level bloodline person will definitely be agreed by the sect. As long as we can make him one of our own, when the chaos comes, Laiyang Prefecture will be able to take it with ease."

Lieutenant General Yu smiled. "With the help of the guardians from the sect, there is no chance of failure. We should keep the other party stable for the time being and not let him see any clues. In addition, the Hong guy is also a big problem. Is there any way to deal with him?"

Lieutenant General Chen shook his head. "The man surnamed Hong has connections with the state capital. If anything happens to him, it will inevitably alert the enemy. Let's get rid of this little brat first."

…

Shen Ping didn't know that Commander Chen was angry and wanted to deal with him because he failed to win him over. At this time, after accompanying Lian Nishang to visit the temple fair for a few days, he went boating on the Laiyang River, and Ling Yuer was naturally with him.

When he was admiring the river view and felt inspired to write poetry, he would let Ling Yuer face the river, and he would stand behind her, looking for inspiration through physical and mental communication.

I have to say, this method is indeed effective.

After so many times of instruction, Ling Yuer has made great progress, especially the meridians in her acupoints can fully accommodate Shen Ping's strengths.

Looking at other cruise ships in the distance, Ling Yuer, standing on the deck railing, had a rosy complexion and her body reacted extremely sharply. When the cruise ship approached, every inch of her skin and muscle tensed up.

Until a wave of water swept in.

The tension was finally relieved.

"Brother Shen, you are so mean. You actually did that."

Ling Yuer complained to herself, but there was no sign of grievance on her face, and she wished it would happen a few more times.

Shen Ping chuckled, it turned out that this girl actually liked this kind of market.

Just about to speak.

Cheerful footsteps were heard from inside the cabin.

Ling Yuer quickly straightened her clothes and continued talking about the monster in Laiyang River as if nothing had happened.

"Brother Shen, Nichang has reached the late fourth stage. Hehe, in half a year at most, she will be able to break through to the fifth stage!"

Lian Nishang's face was full of joy.

If I reach level five, I will be able to catch up with Brother Shen.

Ling Yuer couldn't help but feel jealous when she heard this, "Sister Nichang is really talented. She has reached the late fourth stage so quickly."

Lian Nishang grabbed Shen Ping's arm and said, "Thanks to Brother Shen for giving me the blood bead. Brother Shen, what kind of treasure is that blood bead?"

Shen Ping leaned down to his earlobe and said, "You will know when you reach level five."

Lian Nishang's cheeks blushed. She certainly knew what Shen Ping meant by the fifth level.

Ling Yuer snorted and left.

"Brother Shen, do you like Ling Yuer?"

Lian Nishang asked in a low voice.

Shen Ping couldn't help but glance at Lian Nishang in surprise. When did this girl finally come to her senses? "What are you thinking about? No matter what the situation is, I love you the most."

These words immediately made Lian Nichang feel sweet in her heart, "Wait, wait until Nichang reaches level 5, then, I will let Brother Shen..."

"Let me do whatever I want?"

Shen Ping joked.

The girl was too embarrassed to speak, and stammered, "Anyway, whatever Brother Shen wants to do, Nichang is willing to do it."

Shen Ping was very pleased that his love for the girl was not in vain. He kissed her earlobe, then held her in his arms and continued to enjoy the river view.

During the tour.

He combined the blood power of the Star Realm with the means of his true spirit to carefully sense all the scenery at the bottom of the Laiyang River. It didn't take long before he discovered more than a dozen natural treasures and several fifth-level dragons, one of which was about to break through the Star Realm.

"No wonder the Demon Suppression Bureau has not taken action against the monsters in Laiyang River for so long. With this old dragon around, if you want to completely kill it, you have to pay a price."

The Laiyang River and the Tongtian River converge. The speed of the dragon in the water is extremely fast. At the fifth level, it can catch up with the Xingwei Realm. Therefore, even if a Xingwei Realm garrison general comes, he may not be able to solve the problem.

night.

He dived into the river.

The power of the blood in his body formed a round bubble and quickly dived to the bottom of the river.

The dragon's sensitivity is amazing.

Quickly surrounded Shen Ping.

"It turns out to be Lord Shen from the Demon Suppression Department. I wonder what brings you to my Laiyangjiang Mansion so late at night?"

The old dragon spoke in human language. Its body was huge, hundreds of meters long. If it stirred up waves, it would definitely submerge the nearby Dragon Temple.

Shen Ping said casually: "I am still very curious about Laiyang River. I heard that there is a dragon palace at the bottom of the river and there are many treasures, so I came down to take a look. It would be best if I could take a dozen away."

"Humph, do you think that the Dragon Palace is the Demon Suppression Department? You can come and go as you please?"

A dragon said with disdain.

The old dragon was much more polite. "I wonder what treasure Lord Shen wants? My Laiyang River Dragon Palace still has some assets. As long as Lord Shen is satisfied, it will be fine."

As expected of an old guy.

His experience and knowledge made him less impatient than other dragons and he was very calm.

"Give me some Earth Dragon Crystals. I have never seen any top-grade natural treasures before. Old Dragon, please let me open my eyes."

Hearing this.

The other dragons were angry.

Earth Dragon Crystal is a treasure that can allow a monster to reach the fifth level, not to mention the top quality ones.

The old dragon hesitated for a moment, "Sir Shen, there are not many in the Dragon Palace, but considering that you are a lieutenant general and this is your first visit, I will give you one, how about that?"

"One? To get rid of the beggar?"

While talking.

A large amount of purple lightning appeared within a few miles of the water area.

"This, this is the Star Realm!!"

All the dragons widened their eyes.

The old dragon didn't seem to be too surprised, but his pupils still shrank. He originally thought that this young commander was at the late fifth level, but he didn't expect that he had broken through to the Star Level. "Five, this is the limit that the old dragon can give. Lord Shen, please don't be so aggressive. Even if you are at the Star Level, you may not be able to destroy my Dragon Palace."

Shen Ping had discovered seven before, and this old dragon was able to produce five, which really showed his sincerity.

"What about the top grade ones?"

"My Dragon Palace also has a piece of Earth Fire Marrow, which can quickly improve those who have awakened their fire bloodline. This is a top-grade treasure from heaven and earth."

Shen Ping shook his head, "Not enough."

The old dragon hesitated. He asked the other dragons to leave first, and then slowly said, "Lord Shen, are you interested in Bashan? Bashan is vast and rich in resources. The natural resources and treasures it contains far exceed those of my Laiyang River Dragon Palace."

"Oh? Tell me about it."

He is indeed interested in Bashan.

You have to know that in addition to the greatest opportunity, there are other treasures in this world that can be taken away by beast spirit masters. And since beast spirit masters consider things to be treasures, they must be very precious. It has been almost sixteen years since I was reincarnated, and I have not discovered such a thing yet.

Bashan Mountain spans across Jizhou and Jianzhou states, covering a very wide area. There are probably star-level monsters in its depths, so there must be incredible treasures.

There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!

The old dragon opened its mouth and spit.

An ancient scroll floated before Shen Ping's eyes.

"This is a map of Bashan Mountain. I got it a thousand years ago. It records some special places. I hope Lord Shen can benefit from it."

Say that.

He actually hoped that Shen Ping would die quickly. He had obtained several such maps, and had given them to the Demon Suppression Bureau in the past, but without exception, all of them disappeared without a trace.

Took a glance.

Shen Ping said with satisfaction: "Yes, Lao Long's sincerity has been received. I will visit you again another day."

After a while.

After collecting five Earth Dragon Crystals and Earth Fire Marrow, he returned to the cruise ship.

He used his devouring talent to refine these six natural treasures into blood beads, which he gave to Ling Yuer and Lian Nishang, one each, and kept four for himself.

To reach the star realm, in addition to star energy, bloodline energy is also greatly needed.

And this little drop of blood can help him open two acupoints.

The next evening.

His thunder bloodline has officially reached the middle stage of the Star Realm. Combined with the wood bloodline and other means, he can fight against those in the late stage of the Star Realm.

"That old dragon probably has bad intentions, but the picture is indeed real. Well, I have to go to Bashan."

Unlike going to the nearby counties, the journey to Bashan is not short. Shen Ping estimates that he will have to stay for a month or two, and if there is any delay, it may be longer.

After hearing this, Lian Nishang acted like a spoiled child and wanted to go with them. However, she was only at the fourth level and if she went she would have to distract herself and be taken care of by Shen Ping, so she was directly rejected by Shen Ping.

"Practice well, the blood beads I give you will be enough to break through to the fifth level."

Ling Yuer was obedient. She had no intention of going with them at all. Bashan was so dangerous. If something happened, her youth would be wasted.

So Shen Ping said something to the three lieutenant generals and went to Bashan.

…

Entering from a mountain range in Bashan, Ju County last time, Shen Ping followed the markings on the map and traveled at full speed. It took him three days to reach the first special area.

This is not the edge of a mountain range.

Along the way.

He sensed more than a dozen fifth-level monsters, two or three of which had a similar aura to the old dragon. These monsters usually wouldn't cause trouble in the Great Xia Dynasty, they were more focused on practicing and improving themselves.

Although he was powerful and had many means, Shen Ping was not arrogant enough to deal with all the monsters in Bashan. He concealed his aura and landed on the edge of a special area.

The area is densely forested and has tall trees.

It is like the most primitive tropical forest. Looking up, you can hardly see any traces of human beings. Even the garrison generals of the state capital generally do not come here easily.

"There are so many monsters!"

Through unique sensing methods, after walking for only a short while, he sensed no less than thirty monsters, but the strength of these monsters was average.

But he did not alert the enemy and continued to move forward.

Avoid the monster's territory.

After walking for another hour, they arrived at the edge of a pond.

The place recorded on the scroll is the pond.

Sensed it.

There seemed to be something special covering the surface of the pool, making it difficult to explore.

Shen Ping did not act rashly. He waved his hand and threw out a puppet, which dived into the pool. At the same time, he placed his spirit on the puppet and could clearly see everything in the pool.

As we dived five or six hundred meters.

The puppet man saw a lot of aquatic monsters, each of which had four levels. The puppet man was like a dead object, sinking down. An aquatic monster discovered him and dropped him when it saw nothing strange.

Continue diving to one thousand meters.

The number of fifth-level monsters has increased.

Shen Ping even sensed the aura of a demon from the Star Realm, "It's really extraordinary."

Wait until it is nearly two thousand meters.

We have reached the bottom of the pond.

All I saw was a field of blue water plants, each of which was flashing with fluorescent light. In the center of the water plants was an oval hole, which was only a few feet wide, but there was a special airflow constantly coming out of it.

Shen Ping was stunned, "Could this be the energy of the earth veins?"

He had read related books in the library of the Demon Suppression Bureau. The area around the earth vein energy would be covered with blue aquatic plants, and the air flow would appear as blue flames, which would nourish the monsters and make it easier to improve their bloodlines. However, the earth vein energy was extremely rare and was usually found in the sea or rivers.

It turned out that there was earth energy in a pool of water in Bashan Mountain.

No wonder there are so many monsters here, most of them are at the fourth or fifth level, and there are even a few at the star level.

But soon Shen Ping began to have a headache. Although he was very powerful, trying to kill these monsters would definitely cause quite a commotion, which would easily attract the powerful monsters in the Star Realm in deeper places.

"The earth vein energy is a suitable place for cultivation. Make a note of it and come back later."

Don't act rashly.

He turned around and continued to rush towards the special area recorded in the next scroll.

Monsters do not lurk in all the deep mountains of Bashan. Monsters are only found in the mountains that give birth to natural treasures, like the area around the earth veins. Therefore, Shen Ping only encountered fifth-level monsters during his ten-day journey.

It was not until we arrived at the second special area that we sensed the great demon at the Star Realm.

"I'm afraid this old dragon wants me to die in Bashan."

Until now.

He already understood the old dragon's plan. This was an open conspiracy. After all, the more abundant natural treasures an area had, the more likely it was to have powerful monsters.

Also use the puppet to investigate.

It was soon discovered that the second special area was a patch of snow mushrooms. This top-grade natural treasure was of great benefit to those who had awakened their water bloodline, and Lian Nishang was a water-type person.

After carefully controlling the puppet to pick a few plants, Shen Ping immediately left without staying for long.
