Becoming a God from a Water Monkey

Chapter 1132 I know everything, don't you understand? (6k)

The blood ape hangs upside down, while the great dragon lies prostrate.

One is viewed upside down, the other is viewed straight ahead, and they collide while rotating.

"Gudu!"

His Adam's apple bobbed, every hair on his body stood on end, and his golden eyes trembled, almost unable to focus.

Clinging to Optimus Prime.

With his arm bent, he silently exerted his strength.

Liang Qu clenched his fists and slowly shrank his upper body back into the black hole, as if staying in the small space would bring him a greater sense of security.

This cave, which absorbs massive amounts of blood river water, is flat and pitch black in the middle, except for the two ends which are lit. It is like a long, thin water pipe, just like the plumber who jumped into the pipe, wearing blue overalls and with a big beard.

I stared blankly at this pitch-black world for a long time.

My mind was completely blank.

The shock was so great that the canvas was as blank as a drawing sheet with an oil film on it. When paint was applied, it turned into tiny beads and fell off.

I don’t know how long.

The blood ape released its arm and reached out again.

He glanced at it and quickly withdrew.

that's it.

Repeat this process three times, probing in and out.

The oil film was slowly peeled off, leaving rough white paper. The rough edges held the paint, and the artist began to paint on the paper.

Stagnant thoughts began to re-enter the mind.

dragon?
Is it really a dragon?
Heart pounding.

Liang Qu didn't think anyone would be so bored as to create a lifelike fake model and display it here for their own enjoyment, much less spend a great deal of money to set up a Dragon King's Cave, preventing everyone, even the Martial Saint, from entering and seeing their own model through normal means.

Even the Frog King knew to use glass bottles to carry the cargo on the ship, so he could easily admire them.

Take a deep breath.

Liangqu hung upside down again, peeking out cautiously to observe the world.

Bright red.

The sea of ​​blood on the ground was boundless, and the blood clouds in the sky were endless.

A long dragon lies prostrate in the middle.

The dragon is half bone and half flesh, and it doesn't rot from top to bottom or from the edges to the inside, but rather from left to right.

The left half is bare bones, while the right half is intact flesh and blood. The boundary in the middle is extremely clear. If you ignore the left side, the right side is almost indistinguishable from a living thing!
The distance between the sea of ​​blood and the clouds of blood was extremely small, at least in light of the dragon.

The sea of ​​blood only submerged one-third of the dragon's body, and the blood clouds were not much higher, less than half the thickness of the dragon's body, making the world look extremely cramped and causing people to feel uncomfortable subconsciously, as if they had entered a pigeon coop.

Which dragon is this?
Mirage dragon?

Real dragon?

There are two dragons in the Huai River.

The Mirage Dragon fought against the Great Li and perished tens of thousands of years ago. Now, its remnant soul has transformed into the spirit of the Immortal Island.

If this is the final burial place of the Mirage Dragon's body, then it makes sense. After all, it has become a Demon Emperor, and it is easy for it to remain incorrupt for tens of thousands of years.

The true dragon disappeared without a trace a hundred years ago, no, a hundred and ten years ago.

Based on what Fei Taiyu and the other person said earlier, there was no fruit in the Jianghuai River, which most likely meant that it was taken by the Tianhuo Sect and not put back into the world for a new cycle. Since the fruit was lost, the True Dragon was probably not in much better shape, so it makes sense that the Dragon Lord's body was here.

There are explanations for both horizontal and vertical interpretations.

Liang Qu subconsciously looked at the top of the dragon head, trying to identify its identity.

It's fine if you don't look at it, but once you do, your brain just won't work and you'll be completely confused.

The left half, the skeletal half, lacks dragon horns, and the skull is clean, suggesting it belongs to a mirage dragon. The right half, containing flesh and blood, also lacks dragon horns, but has a broken stump of flesh, resembling a tree stump. Judging from this, it should possess dragon horns.

The little mirage dragon's longing for dragon horns, coupled with historical records, is sufficient to prove that the mirage dragon clan has no horns.

Are the horns of a true dragon purely made of flesh and blood? Without any bone? Otherwise, why is there no trace of bone on the left side? At least there's a tree stump on the right side.

"That's unreasonable."

Liang Qu scratched his head.

Could the stump-like mound on the right be something other than a remnant of a dragon's horn?
However, the absence of hair on the right side of its neck is another characteristic of a true dragon.

The mirage dragon has no horns, but has a mane like a lion around its neck.

A true dragon has horns, but no mane around its neck.

The two are very different.

It is precisely for this reason that Liang Qu once suspected that the mirage dragon was actually the same as the jiaolong, a later entrant who occupied the Huai River, obtained the position of water lord, and transformed into a mirage dragon. From beginning to end, there was only the old dragon lord who was born and raised by nature, so it completely conforms to the form of a true dragon.

“Shrimp, crabs, turtles, and alligators gather in the mirage; the mirage is originally a pheasant transformed from a mountain.” In short, the mirage is a giant clam that transforms from a pheasant entering the sea.

of course.

This is a speculation. Liang Qu couldn't ask Shenlong directly, in case the other party didn't like to talk about his origins. Just as some big shots like to show off and add to their legendary status, others don't like to talk about their past misfortunes, like reopening old wounds.

The left side now matches the description of a mirage dragon, while the right side matches the description of a real dragon—a completely fabricated "imaginary creation."

correct.

Is there any dragon-like aura here?
Communicate with Zeding.

[Consuming six strands of dragon essence can generate one Yinglong pattern.]

[Dragon Aura: Five]

Huh?
This is really weird.

Dragon people, dragon sturgeon, and dragon turtles are all present.

But what if the main character doesn't have the aura of a dragon?

The water pipe was hanging upside down, and Liang Qu scratched his head, completely baffled.

Daydreaming is useless.

He looked around for a long time.

There was no wind or clouds rising between heaven and earth, so Liang Qu decided to explore further. He opened and closed the [Vortex Palace], transforming into a water dragon, one end wrapped around his waist and the other end wrapped around the [Sky Pillar], with a long, thick tail, and descended from mid-air.

Upon arriving at the tranquil sea of ​​blood, Liang Qu could clearly see his own reflection—a strange fish.

Extend your index finger and touch it carefully.

call out!
The "tail" curls back and quickly retracts into the "pipe".

Golden Eyes stared intently at the ripples until they subsided and the world fell silent.

Nothing.

It came out of the "water pipe".

Poke it once, then touch it again.

Everything is still fine.

The last monkey tries to catch the moon.

Scooping up a handful of blood with your palm creates ripples that are much larger than before.

Calm and calm.

The probing became more and more intense, and Liang Qu's movements became more and more obvious. Finally, his two feet stepped into the sea of ​​blood, which gradually submerged him up to his waist, until he found that he hadn't even touched the bottom up to his neck.

What a huge dragon!

Unaware of the distance and without any reference points, Liang Qu was unable to sense or manipulate the water flow within the Blood Sea. He had initially thought the Blood Sea was shallow, but to his surprise, he couldn't even touch the bottom. Finally, he used [Whirlpool Water] to become a "probe" and probed downwards, only to find that after three zhang, the resistance increased, and after five zhang, it stopped moving completely.

"Let's go check on the dragon corpse..."

After repeatedly confirming its own safety, Liangqu stretched out its "tail" and moved closer to the dragon. Unexpectedly, the tail stretched for dozens of miles, directly exceeding Liangqu's control range. It was a classic case of "looking at the dragon but running away like a monkey." It stood on a pillar and then moved its "tail" to a different base point to continue extending forward.

The second "tail" finally arrived in front of the dragon.

"That's weird."

Liang Qu looked up and saw that the dragon's head stood tall, reaching the sky and towering over a thousand feet.

At a height of three thousand meters, one can look down upon the clouds.

The mere sight of them is enough to instill fear.

It is three zhang tall.

The dragon's head is a thousand feet long.

This ratio is like a 1.8-meter tall person encountering a 5-millimeter tall person, or a grain of rice stuck to a person's fingertip.

If we were to calculate the dragon's body, it would have to be reduced to the diameter of a human hair.

"Are mirage dragons and real dragons that big?"

Liang Qu turned a corner and looked back, expressing deep doubt.

Its head alone is a thousand feet tall, but what about its body?

Like snakes, dragons have striking length ratios. If the ratio were 1 to 100, that would be 100,000 zhang, 300,000 meters, or 600 li, equivalent to the north-south distance of a small province in later generations. Living in the Jianghuai region, this ratio would be comparable to that of a goldfish and a fish tank, and not even a large fish tank.

"If it's a mirage dragon, then it makes sense."

Liang Qu thought of the little mirage dragon's talent, [turning the illusory into the real], which allowed it to greatly expand its own size.

The world was eerily quiet.

Encircling the dragon's body.

Just like testing the sea of ​​blood, first poke it to see if there's a reaction. If there's no reaction, gradually increase the intensity of the movement and kick it a couple of times.

Finally...

"Awoo."

Liang Qu bared his snow-white canine teeth and bit down hard on the red flesh exposed at the boundary between bone and flesh, which was not covered by dragon scales. He pulled and tore at it forcefully.

Legend has it that the true dragon is born and raised by nature, just like the treasure fish, and it is very likely that it is the treasure fish! If so, then it is the number one treasure in the world, unparalleled. How much essence of water must it contain? The meat is delivered right in front of us, there is no reason not to give it a try!

Besides, it's so big, you can't take it out, and it can't do much besides eat.

"Ugh, this meat is so tough!"

Liang Qu muttered to himself as he chewed.

grandma's.

I can't bite it!
Old yet resilient.

The blood ape lay on the dragon's body, wiggling its rear end. It bit into a piece of flesh, using both hands and feet to support itself, and tore at it with all its might. The entire piece of flesh was deformed like a rubber band. Its neck ached, and its teeth were about to be pulled out. Apart from being able to wipe its saliva, the dragon flesh just wouldn't come off the dragon's body.

"What are you doing."

Snapped!
Opening his mouth and loosening his canine teeth, Liang Qu wiped away the remaining saliva with the back of his hand: "It's a bit dirty, spit some saliva to wipe it off..."

歘!
Blood flowed, and huge waves surged!

With its tail taut, it quickly pulled the blood ape back, moving at lightning speed.

As he landed on the Sky Pillar, Liang Qu grabbed the Whirlpool and used the same trick again, retreating backward and quickly retracting into the water pipe. He alternated between his hands and feet, pushing off the ground as he grabbed, like a monkey climbing a tree, desperately trying to escape upwards.

It takes seven days to come down, but less than a quarter of an hour to go up.

The blood tide returned and everything was calm.

"Huh, huh..."

His chest expanded and heaved violently.

Using the [Water Travel] technique, he fled frantically, running an unknown distance. Liang Qu clung tightly to the riverbed rocks, drenched in sweat, and silently merged into the Blood River.

Wait quietly for half an hour. The blood river flows, schools of fish swim around it, and clouds drift and gather.

Nothing happened.

They couldn't catch up?

Looking around cautiously, Liangqu emerged from the water, finding no one nearby. He had no idea where he had ended up. There was no sun in the Blood River region; the light came from the sky. Without a specially made compass, there was no way to determine the cardinal directions.

Spend half a day calmly thinking and searching for the village to reconfirm its location.

Liang Qu had just calmed down.

"Who is that?"

The atmosphere inside the Dragon King's Cave was extremely tense. Suddenly, a voice rang out, scaring him so much that he panicked and ran out without thinking.

clam down.

The unity of heaven and man has no warning, and the "Eye Consciousness Method" has no need for acupuncture.

No hostility?

If you're going to take action in a real furnace, you can't escape on your own; at the very least, there shouldn't be no resistance whatsoever.

As long as there is no hostility, it means that communication is possible.

But could it be a trap within a trap? Perhaps the opponent is weaker, deliberately scaring us away first, then making other preparations, waiting for us to be unwilling to abandon our dragon form and walk right into their trap…

Think about it.

Liang Qu clenched his fist.

"We still need to go back!"

The wise make decisive decisions, while doubt leads to trouble.

Wu Lingxu and Fei Taiyu said they wanted it to be upgraded to the Elder level, but that would take forever.

The sixth realm of great beings are immortal, and the lifespans of the other realms are also extended, which has greatly extended the requirements for promotion. In the last fifty years, no one has been promoted!
They just gave him the position of stable boy and dragged it out!

As for meritorious service.

The Heavenly Fire Sect occupies the Blood River Realm and has no external enemies or competitors. How can they gain merit by helping to fight in the mortal realm? Are they waiting for a first-class sect to rebel so they can quell the rebellion themselves? Such good opportunities are reserved for the veterans, creating a vicious cycle.

From second-class elder to first-class elder, then to grand elder, and finally core elder, he rose through the ranks three times. Who knows which level he was qualified to know the "truth"? Did he really work for the Heavenly Fire Sect for hundreds of years?
"Is anyone there? Phew!"

The next day, after confirming that no one was around, Liang Qu lay down at the entrance of the Dragon King Cave, shouted into the cave, and threw two stones into it.

no response.

"Can't you hear me?"

The "water pipe" is extremely long and has a swallowing property, so it's normal that you can't hear it.

After much deliberation, Liang Qu mustered his courage and slowly slid down, stepping on the [Optimus Prime].

This time, there was no need to build and walk at the same time, and the speed was much faster. In just half a day, Liangqu successfully descended to the pipe opening and hung upside down with half of its body sticking out.

"Senior! Pipi! Is Senior there? I didn't prepare anything last time, so I brought you a towel and some water this time!"

"I thought it was the broth and dipping sauce."

The voice rang out again.

"How could that be? Senior is so witty." Liang Qu raised the towel in his hand, chuckled twice, and quickly realized something was wrong.

Hot pot base and dipping sauce?
Although there was a hot pot in the mortal world before I invented it, called "antique soup" because of the "gurgling" sound made when food is put into boiling water, there was even a double-sided pot called "five-compartment pot", which is a copper pot divided into five compartments to cook different foods and prevent flavors from mixing.

But putting everything else aside, given this clear indication, he absolutely does not believe it to be a coincidence!
There's no hot pot in the Blood River Realm, and the other side...

Liang Qu broke out in a sweat, looked around but couldn't find the other person. The voice seemed to come from the void.

"Does the senior know about matters of the mortal realm?"

“I know everything. You transformed from a human into a white ape, breaking the rules and deceiving the dragon, profiting from both sides. Then you transformed from a human into something that was neither fish nor snake, traversing between the Yin and Yang realms, deceiving the Heavenly Fire Sect, profiting from both sides as well. You truly have one trick up your sleeve and can make a living from it all. But unfortunately, one cannot transform from a human into a demon in the Yang realm, nor can one return to the Yang realm from the Yin realm, thus deceiving everyone in the world.”

This……

Liang Qu was sweating profusely, his red hair plastered to his body. He opened his mouth, but couldn't say anything.

Before coming, all the words I had prepared were stuck in my throat.

What the hell.

what's the situation?
It wanted to escape, but unfortunately, its weaknesses were now in the hands of others.

"Trying to run away again."

"Don't dare."

"You ran really fast yesterday, like a rocket! Is that what it's called?"

"If you like it, I'll bring you some fireworks another day."

"Hey……"

He let out a long, quiet sigh.

The sea of ​​blood suddenly surged.

The water rippled and shimmered, transforming into countless streams of light. These streams of light clung to the water's surface, converging from all directions to form a dragon-shaped shadow that appeared directly beneath the Liangqu Canal.

"How do you think you got in?"

Liang Qu thought for a moment and shook his head.

A dragon's shadow flashed.

"If you know, then say so."

Liang Qu scratched his head: "I heard from my wife that back in the Jianghuai Great Marsh, the old Dragon King built a super island of more than one million acres to live on for semi-aquatic beasts. There was no support underneath, but the island floated on the water and would not sink. Birds could not fly over the Dragon King's Cave. Was it set up by the predecessor? So this is the only way to get in."

“You are indeed clever. If you do not possess this supernatural power, you will be exiled to the void upon entering the Dragon King’s Cave and will never see me again. This supernatural power is possessed only by the Water Lord.”

"You want to see me?"

"Originally, I wanted to see my successor, not you. However, the Great Li was trapped in the Huai River region and could not return to the world. There was no hope. Who knew that you, an outsider, would appear, and by such a coincidence, I died once."

An alien from the outside world?

???

Liang Qu felt every pore on his body contract tightly, and an inexplicable fear surged into his heart.

No, how much does your mother actually know?
"You still don't understand?"

What should I understand?
Liangqu remained silent.

He dared not say or do anything now, as if he were standing naked in front of the other person.

"Hahaha, monkey, put your wildly beating heart at ease! Apart from me, no one else in the world knows this. Martial Immortal, Demon Emperor? They can't. As for what you should understand, you will naturally know in the future."

Liang Qu was practically going crazy.

Will not work.

How did you know?
Are you a dragon? Are you really a dragon?
Are you asking me how I know?

I'm not, I didn't, don't talk nonsense.

"Because I am half alive and half dead, there is no one else in the world like me who can observe both the mortal and underworld realms at the same time. Nor is there anyone like me who has mastered the Water Lord's position and realized that you were favored by the Jianghuai region and transformed from a human into an ape. I have been observing you for years before I finally understood what was going on."

Liang Qu gradually calmed down.

Half-dead?

Observing along the way?
Because I am favored?

At the same time, the other party is the Dragon Lord, who has authority, so he can sense that he has turned into a white ape?
And for some unknown reason, it ended up in this Dragon King's Cave, which is why it was able to cast its gaze here?

It sounds like, it seems, that it really is the only one in the world?

He silently recalled the first time he received favor. It was during the first River God Festival in winter, when the Frog King attacked the great demon Crimson Firebird, causing panic in Yixing City. That River God Festival was also the first time Liang Qu dealt with the Mountain Ghost and faced the Ghost Mother Cult directly.

So early...

So, there's basically nothing that the Old Dragon Lord doesn't know?
Liang Qu was somewhat resigned, but at the same time, he became bolder and gradually understood the current situation.

The other party must need him.

"Senior is the Old Dragon Lord?"

"It's me. Your beautiful, big-breasted, long-legged, small-footed, and round-bottomed perfect wife is the one I created."

"..."

This statement was also observed?

and many more.

He could observe everything, even during his wedding night with Eying…

"I am a dragon. No matter how beautiful a human woman is, I will not be moved. I will only find her boring. If your dragon goes out to sniff a female dog's butt, would you deliberately follow it to watch?"

That's not necessarily true; it's quite interesting.

and many more.

Do you have telepathy?
"I don't have telepathy."

"..."

"Hmph, you impudent monkey should thank me. Without my blood, where in the world would there be a woman who is five feet seven inches tall with small, slender feet? Only the Dragon Girl of Jianghuai, including the Grandmaster, there is no other like her in the world. Oh, right, if the Dragon Girl had not had a bloodline defect, she would not have had any dealings with you."

"..." Liang Qu's expression twisted for a moment, "Thank you, senior!"

"Hmm, at least they know their manners."

You're older, so you have a point if you give it to my wife.

Liang Qu took a deep breath: "Since you are the old Dragon Lord, why is half of your dragon body without horns?"

"Don't you think this dragon body looks like it was pieced together?"

Liang Qu frowned, then looked back and said, "There is some truth to it."

"The left half of the skeleton belongs to the mirage dragon, and the right half is mine."

Depend on!
No wonder it's neither one nor the other; one half has horns, and the other half doesn't.

That's a really good dragon.

day!
The Great Ancestor of Dali was even more terrifying; he fought against mirage dragons while alive and against real dragons after death.
During the Great Li Dynasty, the human race as a whole was inferior to the demon race, and it was already quite absurd that they could defeat the Mirage Dragon.

Liang Qu quickly brainstormed to try and learn more information.

"Why did the senior say he was half-alive and half-dead? Why was he half-alive and half-dead?"

"I fought my way through the underworld, but I didn't return to the mortal realm. I exhausted all my strength and was left half-alive and half-dead."

Liang Qu was taken aback: "Is the Dragon King's Cave really a gap in the world?"

"The world's hemorrhoids."

"..."

Liang Qu tried hard to recall.

When I thought that way, did I mutter it to myself and say it out loud?
This isn't just a case of "walls have ears," it's about "dimensional ears have ears"!
"Indeed, it is a gap in the world. The gap in the world has given rise to the strange sight that birds cannot fly, fish cannot swim, and feathers cannot float. I used this to my advantage and transformed it into what it is today. Da Li also used this to my advantage, trapping me, who was exhausted, in this layer to refine and nourish myself, to repair and support the world, just like a mirage dragon."

Liang Qu was deeply shocked, but there was one more crucial point for him.

"You said that only you can observe the mortal realm. If even the Great Ancestor of Dali couldn't observe it, then he shouldn't be able to interfere with things in the mortal realm, right? Why did you, who were perfectly fine,..." Liang Qu racked his brains for words, "...why did you fall to this state?"

"I've been scammed."

"Who?"

Quiet.

half an hour.

"Whale King".
