Chapter 671 Broken Dragon Scales
“That’s because the Lingxiao Realm lost a caring and considerate ruler like the Emperor, and it was ruined by Supreme Haotian into such a bad state,” Luo Chuan He habitually complimented, "No wonder he has been stuck at the peak of the eighth realm for thousands of years and has been unable to collect all the incense in the Lingxiao Realm.
"If he were an emperor, I'm afraid it would have been long ago. Surrounded by thousands of people, we entered 'Yujing'. "
"Don't be so absolute," Gu Xu shook his head gently, "Collecting incense is not as easy as you think. Now that we are in the wilderness, I can't guarantee that I will be promoted to the third rank smoothly. Nine realms. ”
Of course Gu Xu knows the reason for this situation in Lingxiao Realm.
Although Taishang Haotian nominally unified the Lingxiao world, in fact he was unable to directly control every force under his command.
He can only assign the task of collecting incense to various races, aristocratic families and sects to complete it themselves.
However, these subordinate forces often only focus on whether the mission is completed, and cannot ensure that all living beings are sincerely convinced by Supreme Haotian.
As a result, the process of collecting incense often ends up being a mere formality.
…………
Lingxiao Realm.
The remnants of the alchemy, the scrap metal of the weapon refiner, and some messy waste from the practice world fell clatteringly into a valley, like a heavy rain pouring down.
The civilians in Cuiyun Village rushed over there.
Steep hillsides, jagged rocks, and dense thorns could not stop their rapid pace.
Everyone is afraid that if they arrive a step too late, they will not be able to grab the "gift" from the Heavenly Palace.
The family of four who saved Gu Xu were no exception.
The old lady and the young woman each carried a large rucksack, and the two children's pockets were also filled with waste. It can be said that they returned home with a full load.
Only Gu Xu, who was lying on the kang, frowned slightly.
After the four of them arrived home, they squatted on the ground and began to carefully select the things they picked up based on their shape and color.
Looking at their proficiency, it is obvious that this is not the first time they have done this kind of thing.
After a while, the old lady picked up a sharp-edged, shiny black hard object from a pile of trash and handed it to the young boy's hand.
The boy stuffed it into his mouth without thinking.
“Wait!”
Just when the boy reached out to pick up the hard object, Gu Xu suddenly stopped him.
Everyone present turned to look at him with doubts on their faces.
"That thing is a waste product produced at extremely high temperatures by mixing Blazing Stone and Purple-backed Geranium. It has chronic toxicity. If taken regularly, it will cause hair to fall off, skin to dry out, and eyes to weaken..." Gu Xu explained.
"Will it kill someone?" the old lady asked.
Gu Xu was silent for a moment and replied: "It will not cause death directly."
"Continue eating and leave him alone," the old lady turned to look at the little boy and said, "These things, but We finally picked it up, and we won't go hungry for a few days. Most of our food was confiscated by the Qingque Sect not long ago. Without these, we might not survive this winter..."
Before she could finish her words, the black hard object held by the little boy suddenly disappeared.
At this moment, in the hands of him and the little girl next to him, each held a roasted chicken leg that was golden and attractive and fragrant.
The skin of the chicken legs has an attractive oily sheen, as if it has been coated with a thin layer of golden honey.
Not only that.
In this room, miraculously appeared several heavy bags of grain, several clay pots filled with pickled vegetables, and several pieces of salty and fragrant bacon... The family of four was all at once. I was stunned and couldn't believe my eyes.
"This..."
"Meng thanks you for your life-saving grace. These things are just a little thank you from me." Gu Xu smiled and said sincerely.
When he set out from the wilderness, he was worried that Shi Xiaohan would be hungry because there was nothing to eat after waking up in the blood pool, so he specially prepared a mountain of delicious food in the "Yaochi Palace".
I didn’t expect it to come in handy now.
While everyone was still stunned and had not yet come to their senses, Gu Xu thought about it, took out the pen and paper from the "Yaochi Palace" again, and began to draw quickly.
He traced the outline of an arm and a leg on paper and then cut them out.
With the help of his magic, the flat paper seemed to be injected with life, rapidly inflating and expanding like a balloon, and finally turned into a three-dimensional form.
The paper arms and legs were perfectly connected to his mutilated body at the moment, restoring him to a healthy body.
At this time, Gu Xu waved his hand gently, and the bags of waste thrown down from the "Tiangong" floating island instantly flew in front of him.
He could vaguely feel that there seemed to be something in this pile of waste, and there was some kind of causal connection between it and him.
He rummaged around with his true energy and quickly took out a silver object the size of a fingernail.
This object is hard, with a texture as cold as metal, and its surface shines brightly, like moonlight.
However, there were a few bright red blood stains on its edge, which looked particularly eye-catching.
Gu Xu knew that this was a piece of dragon scale - more accurately, it was a scrap of broken dragon scale.
If he guessed correctly, this should have fallen from Jiang Zhaoyue's body.
"The scales of the dragons in the Lingxiao Realm can be said to be one of the strongest materials in the world. It is difficult for ordinary magic weapons to penetrate them," Gu Xu thought to himself, "Jiang Zhaoyue's dragon scales are broken like this. It is estimated that she has suffered a lot of damage." The injury was not serious.
"She should have been accidentally teleported to the place where the 'Tiangong' floating island is located in the turbulence of space due to her usual bad luck after we were separated, and then was captured by Taishang Hao. Heaven or his men caught it. ”
The more Gu Xu thought about it, the more solemn his eyes became.
He couldn’t help but think about what would happen to Jiang Zhaoyue if she was captured by Taishang Haotian and taken to the “Tiangong” floating island.
Will her scales be peeled off and used to make the "Dragon Scale Armor", which is the most precious treasure in the Lingxiao Realm?
Will the people in "Heavenly Palace" torture her in every possible way and extract all kinds of information from her mouth?
For example, the coordinates of the wild world?
"Perhaps, I should change my plan and no longer blindly pursue safety as before."
His hand inadvertently grasped the handle of the knife at his waist tightly.
Then, under the watchful eyes of the family of four beside him, he strode out of the house.
His steps didn't seem to be hurried, but every step he took seemed to move dozens of feet, and he soon disappeared deep into the green mountains.
…………
Thousands of miles away.
The place where Chen Suhui fell was a small town inhabited by human beings.
Under the protection of Gu Xu's "Qiankun" power, she only suffered some minor superficial injuries and was basically unharmed.
On this day, the town was particularly lively.
Every family brought their daughters to the outskirts of the town.
Because they heard that the immortal master from Bixia Palace was coming here to recruit disciples today.
