Chapter 263: Lushan locks ten thousand immortals, and fireworks swallow ten thousand demons
"Why did you come here!"
Just when Hanabi was about to do something big, Manman's voice came out.
This universal fairy has been sleeping since the last exploration of the ruins, saying that it wanted to report to Qiudaomu.
Zhou Lu was still complaining in his heart. He had promised to keep his whereabouts secret, but even though he had turned Xinzhou upside down, he still didn't see this guy coming out for a walk.
Seeing Manman again, Zhou Lu couldn't help but complain: "You slept for a long time."
Manman put his hands on his hips: "I have been staring at that corpse for more than a thousand years, can't I take a good rest?"
As she said that, she pointed to the sign of Ten Thousand Demons Cave in the distance: "Why did you come to this place?"
Zhou Lu was slightly startled when he saw Manman acting like this: "Is there any problem here?"
"Of course there is a problem! You have no idea how many remnant souls of immortals there are here!" Manman shouted nervously, "My mother's master fought a group of demon cultivators here back then. We'd better hurry up..."
Before Man Man finished speaking, there were bursts of shrill screams in the distance.
The little goblin suddenly shouted nervously: "It's over, it's over, we have to run away quickly. I have awakened so many demon cultivators' remnant souls, and I can't protect you."
With that said, Manman grabbed Zhou Lu's collar and tried to take him out of the underground palace.
However, no matter how hard Manman tried, Zhou Lu still stood there motionless.
"I think there should be no problem." Zhou Lu looked at the fireworks in the distance.
Only then did Manman notice Hanabi's performance.
Countless vines were waving around its body, like a demon king coming out of hell, whipping away at all the screaming remnant souls.
These remnants of demonic cultivators didn't take this grass seriously at first, but soon they noticed a terrifying thing - they seemed to be unable to defeat this guy.
With the expansion of the branches on the ground, in just a few breaths, this place has become another flower field of Hanabi.
The bonus provided by [Flower Fairy] gave Hanabi full confidence.
It didn't hesitate at all and instantly refined all the demons in front of it.
With the flickering light emanating from her body, Hanabi was one step closer to becoming a fifth-level true god.
"Damn it!" Manman was dumbfounded when he saw this scene, "When did it become so accurate?"
As a fairy with common sense, Manman could tell at a glance that this was Hanabi's quasi-god form.
Considering that Manman is the special seed of Qiudao Mu, he should have special permissions...
Zhou Lu glanced at Manman, but he roughly guessed that Qiudao Mu had seen another Mengyuhua change job in history.
Zhou Lu felt a sense of curiosity and fear about this being who was of the same species as Hanabi.
He had some doubts about whether the birth of Hanabi was because Qiudaomu wanted to cultivate a spiritual beast that could fight against the Mengyuhua.
But if this were to be the case, how could Hanabi's accumulation in just one year compare to the opponent's thousands of years of accumulation?
After absorbing the [Immortal], the other party can't absorb even the arrogance and stupidity of the Immortal, completely give up other skills, and lie there enjoying the pleasure of becoming stronger brought by the [Immortal], right?
If this is really the case, Zhou Lu may have further increased the danger level of this racial skill.
After all, the immortals he met seemed to have a similar trend.
They enjoy the attribute bonuses brought by eating, and prefer to use a barbaric and purely numerical combat method to show their growth, thereby ignoring the use of other skills
At least, few of the immortals Zhou Lu met had useful skills.
With Zhou Lu thinking like this, Hua Huo has already returned to Zhou Lu's side with its roots.
Just now, it had cleared out all the remaining souls of the demon cultivators in the entire palace complex.
"It's amazing." Manman couldn't help but sigh as he looked at the empty palaces that had returned to calm.
Hanabi looked at Manman, and then said with a smile: "The main reason is that they are too weak, they just look scary."
After all, they are just the remnant souls left behind after the death of many demon cultivators.
Fortunately, they were the souls of immortals. If the souls of other spiritual beasts had probably dissipated long ago, or transformed into some kind of ghostly spiritual beast.
After eliminating the enemies, you can explore with confidence.
Under the guidance of Hua Huo, Zhou Lu roughly explored all the palaces and stuffed all the valuable-looking objects into the Yueshan Cauldron.
"It seems that Boss Lu Shan ransacked this place very cleanly back then." Although the requirements were low enough, Zhou Lu still didn't pick up many things.
Manman said bluntly: "Because I was poor at that time. My mother couldn't carry more things, otherwise even these palaces would be demolished."
"So, where is this place?" Zhou Lu asked curiously.
Looking at the surrounding palaces, judging from the scale and decoration of the building, its status in the immortal world should not be very low.
"It's the place where fallen demon cultivators are imprisoned in the Immortal Mansion Spiritual Realm." Manman said.
Normal demon cultivators are deliberately cultivated by the major immortal sects.
But at that time, there were actually many high-level sects who couldn't stand the hunger brought about by racial skills and took the initiative to choose to fall.
"This is the place where the fallen immortals in the spiritual realm of the Official Immortal Mansion."
"Do you actively choose to fall?" Zhou Lu thought for a while, "I feel there is no difference."
"That's because you look at it from the perspective of this era, of course there is no problem." Manman said, "Different eras have different social morals. If you are a disciple of a sect and the elders of the sect suddenly violate the sect rules, How would you feel if you killed an innocent person?”
Manman paused and continued: "Immortals can also feed each other. The sects of immortals are actually a group of people who agree to guarantee each other. Once someone violates the rules of the group, he may harm other people in the group. When people do it, they naturally need to be eliminated quickly.”
"So... what did Boss Lu Shan do to come here?" Zhou Lu became even more curious after hearing the origin of this underground palace.
"Oh, he was dragged in while he was fishing up there." Manman pointed to the top and said.
"..."
Zhou Lu didn't know how to evaluate this matter for a while.
Then Manman said with a tone of relief: "Huh! You deserve it."
"Um...is there a story in this?"
"I was the bait he used for fishing." Manman rolled his eyes.
When Hanabi heard Manman's words, she immediately became energetic: "Oh! You guys can really be used as bait!"
Hearing Hanabi's surprised and eager tone, Zhou Lu patted Hanabi's hat angrily: "Don't learn this kind of thing!"
Hanabi obediently closed her mouth, but her eyes looked at Manman with a hint of scrutiny, as if she was really thinking about whether there would be more extra gains if she used Manman to fish.
"Speaking of it." Now that Manman came out, Zhou Lu remembered some things about Qiudao Mu and asked, "Can your seeds really germinate?"
Xiao Xi often does various maintenance in her dormitory, always shouting that she wants to be the first seed to germinate.
"Qiudao Mu, you shouldn't have a spouse, right?"
After a pause, Zhou Lu touched his chin and said, "Is it monoecious?" Although this is a very common setting in the plant world, after the plant becomes a spiritual pet, it always feels weird to think about it, even more so. What's more, Qiudao Mu usually looks like a woman.
"Mother is a bit special." Manman did not hide it. "Actually, only after she dies, can the lucky ones among us inherit the power she inherited and then sprout. Before that, all the fairies with common sense cannot actually sprout. ”
"Ah?" Zhou Lu was stunned, "Does Xiao Xi know that? She has been clamoring about sprouting all day long..."
"This is basic common sense for fairies." Manman blinked, "It's just that in order to avoid some troublesome things, I won't tell humans."
"...Huh?"
"I think that the knowledgeable fairy you know... probably just wants to use this to get some extra subsidies, right?"
Damn it! Xiao Xi actually has that kind of brain! ?
Zhou Lu was shocked.
After searching again and making sure that there really was nothing else to remove, Zhou Lu began to look for a way out.
If you come in in a daze, you won't be able to find the method when you go out.
At this time, Zhou Lu had to be thankful that Manman woke up in time.
As Lu Shan's bait at the beginning, Manman could be considered as having personally experienced the scene of Lu Shan's battle to lock away Wanxian. Therefore, he clearly remembers how Lu Shan got out later.
Under Manman's leadership, Zhou Lu quickly arrived at the exit of the Immortal Palace Underground Palace.
Along with the flash of transmission, the light of the secret realm appeared again.
Zhou Lu, who was originally prepared to welcome the water flow, unexpectedly discovered that there was a swamp outside the exit.
Before Zhou Lu could react, Manman explained: "There is a twisted and powerful natural force in this area, forming an unstable area of space. The Immortal Mansion Spiritual Realm back then was also built using this. This is the underground palace where the sect’s demon cultivators are imprisoned.”
"This power is also the source of the evolution of the cursed frog?"
Manman nodded and said: "You can say that."
As she said that, she raised her finger and pointed in the distance: "Speaking of which, is that woman over there someone you know?"
Zhou Lu followed the direction of his fingers and saw a huge mushroom standing there on the flat pond bank, and it was still expanding at a speed visible to the naked eye.
And under the mushroom, Wu Xiaoqing stood impressively.
At this time, Wu Xiaoqing was yelling something, and behind her, a group of beast masters were holding her with all their strength.
This time, Zhou Lu could vaguely hear their conversation.
"You can't do it! Stop it!"
Why are these people so nervous?
Zhou Lu thought doubtfully.
After looking around, he finally understood.
The place where he came out was not a swamp, it was clearly the bottom of the lake!
A group of fish that could only lie at the bottom of the lake because the water had been drained were looking at him with desperate eyes.
All the water in this pond has been drained.
There is no need to think about the culprit of all this, you can see it as soon as you look up.
The huge mushroom in front of me is obviously the culprit of all this.
After Zhou Lu got closer, he finally heard clearly what Wu Xiaoqing was yelling.
"Let me go! Don't stop me! I must drain this place dry! That guy Zhou Lu is still down there!"
It seems that because he went down for too long and found that the branch vines left on the shore had been torn off, Wu Xiaoqing drained the water in the pool out of desperation.
I didn't expect that my wild fantasy when I couldn't catch any fish would be realized by Sister Xiaoqing in this way.
Zhou Lu complained in his heart and hurried up to stop Wu Xiaoqing from further crazy actions: "Sister Xiaoqing, I'm fine."
When Wu Xiaoqing saw Zhou Lu suddenly appearing, her expression froze, and then she was ecstatic: "Are you okay?! That's great!"
The beast masters behind her also breathed a sigh of relief.
God, this aunt is so scary.
Without a word, he took out an unprecedented mushroom and drained all the water in the pond.
Looking at the dry pond in front of them, these beast masters also looked sad.
There is no water in this pool. How can I train and evolve my cursed frog...
"So, I'm really fine." After Zhou Lu told Wu Xiaoqing about the encounter, he looked at the six-story mushroom behind her and said, "Can't the water in this pool be restored?"
"It can be recovered." Wu Xiaoqing said matter-of-factly, "It's said that the water was pumped out, so there's no reason why the pumped water can't be sent back."
"But before that." The senior sister took out the tool, "I have to dig some mud at the bottom of the lake first. I have a strain of bacteria that needs this kind of mud to evolve."
"...I thought you drained the lake to save me." Zhou Lu Wuyu said.
"Um... I'm actually trying to save you." Wu Xiaoqing coughed twice, "It's just a matter of course to collect materials."
"You have obviously planned to drain the lake long ago." Zhou Lu saw through Wu Xiaoqing's trick at a glance, "It's only convenient to save me, right?"
"Ahem." Wu Xiaoqing, who was exposed, coughed twice and said, "It seems that my acting skills are not real enough..."
It's not that Wu Xiaoqing hasn't been worried about Zhou Lu, but Hua Huo's strength is there, and she finally convinced herself.
Facts also proved her idea. Zhou Lu encountered no danger at all down there.
"But thank you, Sister Xiaoqing." Zhou Lu just joked casually. Wu Xiaoqing couldn't pretend to be worried just now.
While she was talking, Wu Xiaoqing had already completed the collection of silt samples. As she untied the mushrooms, a large amount of pond water poured into the soil from the mushrooms, and then quickly gathered into the pond through the gaps in the soil.
After a while, the previous pond appeared in front of everyone again.
However, compared to before, the water in these pools is still a bit turbid, and it will take a few days of sedimentation to completely return to its previous appearance.
Looking at the gradually recovering pond, Zhou Lu asked: "How is the evolution of Little Curse?"
"Successful." Wu Xiaoqing said with a smile, "This kid is quite impressive."
The success rate of Curse Frog's fourth-level evolution is actually not high.
"Congratulations to Sister Xiaoqing for becoming a fourth-level beast master." Zhou Lu congratulated.
Upon hearing this, Wu Xiaoqing was particularly happy: "It is indeed worth being happy. The subsidies for the fourth-level beast master are quite large. I finally don't have to ask my grandfather and grandma for research funds."
"Subsidy?" Zhou Lu was stunned.
Wu Xiaoqing glanced at Zhou Lu speechlessly: "Don't you know that beast masters have official subsidies?"
