Becoming a God from a Water Monkey

Chapter 1133 Realm Lord, A Gift (6k2)

The whale king came to the Huai River not out of curiosity about wonders, nor because he liked to travel!
It came specifically to see the Fairy Island in the Clouds!

A flash of lightning pierced through the sea of ​​consciousness.

Liang Qu suddenly realized what was happening.

According to the Dragon King, the Whale King had cultivated his fish persona for thousands of years, maintaining a consistent disguise so that no one, human or demon, in the entire East Sea or the entire world could see through it.

Is it true or false?

As the old toad once mentioned, when the Jianghuai Dragon Palace was completed, the old dragon king specially hosted a banquet for the whale king. The two were close friends, but it turned out to be a fake brotherhood.

but……

Currently, all of this is the one-sided account of the "Dragon Shadow" in the Blood Sea.

How old are you?

Do you believe everything others say?
Whether the dragon shadow in front of him is the Dragon Lord is questionable.

Does the presence of the dragon's corpse here necessarily mean that it is the remnant soul of the Dragon Lord speaking?
Ze Ding did not receive any dragon seed aura.

When Longyuan Dao removed the bloodline shackles from Long Eying, Liang Qu still vividly remembered the black line in her body. He wondered if it was a deliberate upper limit set by the "generous" Dragon Lord, or if it was a natural deficiency in the bloodline of a dragon-born hybrid.

He certainly wouldn't harbor hostility towards an ancient demon emperor just because of a single sentence he'd just met.

"I never imagined that such a treacherous villain could appear loyal, outwardly simple and honest, yet inwardly cunning and deceitful! This Whale King of the East Sea is utterly wicked! He deserves to die a thousand deaths! His crimes are too numerous to recount!" Liang Qu said indignantly, gritting his teeth and clenching his fists tightly. "Delaying my immortal island's enlightenment is insignificant, but he actually dared to harm you, Old Dragon Lord! He caused my wife's family to be ruined and destroyed! He will settle accounts with me sooner or later and we'll eat grilled fish!"

"Pack!"

"..." Liang Qu automatically ignored the word "pretend" and did not investigate how the Dragon King was deceived. He pressed on while the iron was hot and asked the key question, "Why would the Whale King deceive you? What benefit would it gain for him? I once heard the old turtle of Pengze talk about the furnace. He said that the furnace is without desire because there are no resources in the world that can help them. Could it be a lie?"

Whether it's Old Dragon King proving that he's telling the truth, or Liang Qu proving that he didn't disbelieve, it's all meaningless self-justification.

To prove your authenticity, provide more information to build a chain of evidence, allowing others to make their own judgment; to prove you don't disbelieve, demonstrate greater honesty.

There is no such thing as good or bad in the world; it all depends on whether there are benefits or not.

If there weren't only one Huaijiang River channel and only one upward channel, Liangqu would have been too busy fighting the dragon and needlessly lost his life.

Now, the old dragon king is just as bored and has nothing better to do than ramble on and on about his troubles.
Conscious activities are purposeful and planned.

Even when doing nothing but spacing out, the purpose is still to kill time.

Simple high school politics.

“I’ve heard your conversation with the old turtle from Pengze, and it’s half right and half wrong.”

Really annoying.

Liang Qu scratched his scalp until it bled.

Ever since he received the favor of the Huai River during the first River God Festival, he has been constantly watched by a high-dimensional "audience" with no right to privacy whatsoever.
Aside from watching his live streams in the Infernal Affairs Zone, he has no other form of entertainment?

"Where is it right? Where is it wrong?"

"There are indeed no resources in the world that can help the Martial Immortals and Demon Emperors, because nothing can match them, but it is not that there is absolutely nothing that can match them."

"Martial Immortal and Demon Emperor themselves?" Liang Qu blurted out.

"Indeed." Above the sea of ​​blood, a dragon's shadow flickered. "When you first went to the capital, you encountered the auction of the Heaven and Earth Longevity Qi. A Martial Saint once took out a Xuan Whale Pill, which was refined from an entire Xuan Whale."

The old Dragon King actually brought up old grievances that Liang Qu himself had almost forgotten.

Advancing to the Forge, instead of becoming a powerful medicine within the same realm, requires even greater caution in dealing with schemes.

That's not as dashing as the Martial Saint of the Heavenly Dragon!
He could become a pillar of the nation, establish his own fiefdom and become king. After all, he had a long lifespan; while other martial saints lived to be eight hundred, he lived to be at least three thousand.

Is the reason why the Forge doesn't easily intervene and doesn't help its own dynasty based on this balance, not because it doesn't want to expose its emotional weaknesses, but because it has little affection for its descendants?

"Did the Whale King deceive you for the True Dragon Pill? Or for the power and authority of the Huaijiang position?"

"It is and it is not, or rather, I still haven't figured it out..." Above the sea of ​​blood, the dragon shadow flickered more intensely, and he kept sighing as he spoke, "I often think about why this is so in this hell. If I'm not mistaken, it should be like the Great Ancestor of Dali back then, trying to become the Lord of the Realm."

Realm Lord?

What is this?
Combining the dream dynasty with the literal meaning of the words, Liang Qu guessed: "The ruler of a realm?"

"No wonder people praise others for their intelligence, always saying they are as clever as monkeys," the Dragon King exclaimed.

"..."

When you praise someone, praise them properly.

"Do you remember what you said to Vajra King?"

Come again.

I've talked to the old monk so many times, how could I possibly remember which sentence it was?
Good morning? Have you eaten?
Liang Qu harbored resentment.

"I can't remember, could you give me a hint?"

"That time you achieved oneness with nature."

Liang Qu pondered for a long time before trying to speak: "The sixth consciousness is that Heaven and Earth favor you, the seventh consciousness is that you make Heaven and Earth favor you... The eighth consciousness is the seed consciousness, is it that you favor Heaven and Earth?"

"It's this sentence. Think about it carefully."

Long Ying knew that Liang Qu did not trust him, so he let Liang Qu draw the conclusion himself.

People always firmly believe in their own reasoning.

Heaven and earth favor you.

You have won the favor of heaven and earth.

You favor heaven and earth...

Liang Qu seized the inspiration.

"The Great Ancestor of Dali not only wanted to create an immortal dream dynasty, but also wanted to create a real underworld, become the master of a small world, and advance to the Rainbow Transformation realm? Does the Whale Emperor want to emulate the Great Ancestor of Dali and do it all again? Create a second small world?"

Dragon Shadow flashed: "These are just my speculations. There is no predecessor in the world who has achieved the Rainbow Transformation, and there is no path to learn from. Whether it is the Great Li or the Whale King, they are all feeling their way across the river."

Liang Qu was deeply shocked.

Advance to the Forge and gain complete and great power.

To ascend to the Rainbow Realm, one must create a world and become its master.

He pressed further: "Did the Great Ancestor of Dali succeed? Furthermore, what kind of world does the Whale Emperor want to create, and how did the two become involved?"

"Flirting! What a fine word, it suits my taste perfectly." Long Ying was greatly pleased. "The Great Ancestor of Dali naturally did not succeed, otherwise how could I have fallen into this half-dead state and turned into a skeleton long ago? I do not know what world the Whale Emperor wants to create. As I said before, I am merely speculating that He wants to do so. I do not know how the two colluded."

I have no answer to any of these questions.

Even in this state, he's still a fool.

Are you trying to say I'm confused?

And you say you don't have telepathy!
"What use is telepathy? I've lived for thousands of years, a hundred times longer than you, and I've eaten more salt than you've eaten rice. It's not hard to guess what's going on in your monkey head."

A shocking secret!

Just the day before yesterday, I broadened the horizons of my senior brothers, and today, Bie Long broadened his own.

We are all frogs.

The frog in the well.

There are too many questions about Liangqu, and I can't figure them out right now. All I can do is sigh.

The rulers of the Jianghuai region have truly suffered many calamities.

The previous Mirage Dragon was captured by the Great Ancestor of Dali to create a new world.

The former Dragon King was captured by the Whale King and the Great Ancestor of Dali, or perhaps the world was created.

dry.

The opening up of the world was inseparable from the Huai River, wasn't it?

Is water the origin of all things?

This seems a bit dangerous. Are there any other high-quality fruits I could choose from?

"You say you are trapped in this abyss, being refined and used to nourish the heavens and earth?"

"Yes, the Heavenly Fire Sect wants to refine me into the True Spirit of the Heavenly River to revitalize the Underworld River. You are the candidate."

"I'm the backup candidate!?" Liang Qu exclaimed in surprise.

"What are you yelling about? Don't tell me someone as clever as you has never thought of this?"

Liang Qu remained silent.

That's right.

He thought about it.

Fei Taiyu said they weren't enemies and had no conflict of interest, but Liang Qu wasn't foolish enough to believe him.

Third-class, second-class, first-class, Grand Elder, core elder—damn it, the elders of the Heavenly Fire Sect are divided into five tiers! Starting from the second-class, they are all sixth-realm powerhouses! There are even a few in the third-class!

Knowing that a person's true nature is hard to erase, if he were from the Heavenly Fire Sect, he would never let such a well-known "time bomb" run around.

We've all been "trained since childhood," are innocent, and come from good families. We're just waiting for you to come and surrender.

Although Liang Qu did not realize the problem at the time, he did not rely entirely on one technique.

Lying is not the same as saying something wrong; there's something called subtle writing.

What he didn't quite understand was why the Great Li Heavenly Fire Sect wanted to win him over.

Liang Qu wanted the Heavenly Fire Sect's blood treasure, and the Heavenly Fire Sect wanted to use the White Ape; everyone got what they wanted.

“Your senior brothers all believe that you, a ‘person’ with parents, are a born true spirit. Those who don’t know that you and the white ape are one, but only know about the white ape, believe it to be true. If the refining of me fails, your true spirit will be the alternative for the Heavenly Fire Sect to revitalize the Tongtian River.”

Liang Qu forced a flattering smile onto his face.

"Dear, great, and noble Dragon King, how many more years can you hold on?"

"Several hundred years is no problem, a thousand years is something we can try."

"call!"

Liang Qu wiped away his cold sweat and let out a long sigh of relief.

Okay.

Safety.

Scare yourself.

He can still stay in the Heavenly Fire Sect.

The sea of ​​blood was as calm as still water.

Liang Qu then thought of a crucial question: "What about the Blood Treasure? Could it be that the Blood Treasure's origin lies with you?"

"I am not very sure."

"Aren't you able to observe the underworld?"

"I can only observe your surroundings; no one else pays attention to you or casts a glance at you. I don't know more than you do."

"..."

So you're only spying on me, huh?
and many more.

Liang Qu rubbed his hands together excitedly and asked, "Even dragons have their favors. Do you know where the dragon pearl is?"

Last time, when the dragon went upstream, he was multitasking. While fleeing, he secretly sent Awei to infiltrate the Dragon Palace and gain a general understanding of its contents, but still failed to find the Dragon Pearl.

"That tree is ablaze with lights."

"What?"

"Isn't there a tree of fire and silver flowers in front of the Dragon Palace? That's the Dragon Pearl."

"???"

Wait, no, the Dragon Balls are just left outside the Dragon Palace, in the big square?

Also, shouldn't the Dragon Ball be a ball? Why is it a tree?
What is the most dangerous place that is also the safest place?
The dragon's shadow flickered: "The dragon pearl can be a pearl, or it can be something else. It's not entirely a display of dazzling lights. It's its roots underground in the Dragon Palace. The dragons reside here every day, gnawing on the roots and refining them. And it can't be moved."

"Can't be moved?"

“You can’t control the water around the King of Chu, and the dragon can’t move the dragon pearl I left behind either. It can only stay there, in the Jianghuai Dragon Palace, under the rules I gave it, unless it can move the entire Huai River.”

hiss!
"The Dragon King is mighty!"

"Don't underestimate the dragon; it may not necessarily fail."

Liang Qu was taken aback: "What do you mean?"

"The dragon and the whale king have had dealings. At least when the dragon came from the sea to the Huai River region, it served as the whale king's subordinate for a period of time. It was the whale king who vouched for it that allowed it to come in and take root in the Huai River region."

Liang Qu frowned.

He had heard Su Guishan say that the four great demon kings, the Jiaolong and the Ironhead Fish, all came from the sea, while the West Turtle came from the east of Dongtian Lake, and the Frog King was a native frog with impeccable roots.

There's such a bizarre story behind it?
"For the past hundred years, you haven't observed any interaction between the dragon and the whale king?"

"It can't be observed; it's very blurry there. It's the work of the whale king's clan to shield it."

Got it.

After all that talk, it's still about taking advantage of yourself.

Let the dragon see everything.

Liang Qu had a pretty good idea of ​​what was going on.

After being tricked by the Whale King, the Dragon King had been in such a state of ignorance until his sudden appearance. He was the second person in Jianghuai with deep favor, who opened a window for him to observe the world.

"Do you have any blood medicine on you? Let me see what's wrong."

"Wait a minute."

Liang Qu looked around to see if there was any "aurora" nearby that could lead back to the mortal world, but found that there was no passage between the mortal and spiritual realms in this place of no cessation, so he had no choice but to leave the Dragon King's Cave.

It was three hours later when they returned from the mortal realm after retrieving the blood treasure.

"They're so slow."

"It's already fast. I need to go back to Pingyang in the mortal realm, and then back to the underworld and back again. Here, a first-grade blood treasure. There are also super-grade ones above it."

Liang Qu held the blood treasure in his hand and placed it in front of Long Ying.

half an hour.

"I see……"

Liang Qu perked up: "What did you see?"

"The currency that keeps the underworld running and prevents it from collapsing," Long Ying said calmly. "It should have originated from humans." "Humans?"

How does it feel to eat too much?

Liang Qu frowned: "If it can help me touch the reality of the mortal world and improve my cultivation, it will be very weak."

"That's roughly it. The underworld can't handle all the souls of the dead, so some of them must be used as consumables to keep it running. That's why you can use them to lure the Drought Demon. But I don't know the specifics of how it works. You'll have to explore it yourself."

Fine.

The blood ape is above, and the dragon shadow is below.

The sea of ​​blood remained calm, while the red clouds drifted leisurely.

All the key questions have been asked.

The conversation between the man and the dragon ended.

Suddenly knowing too much is all shocking and earth-shattering; releasing it could change the course of events, but it all requires time to digest.

Liang Qu scratched his butt: "That's all for now. I'll come back if anything comes up. I'm leaving now."

"Ah."

"I'm really leaving now."

"it is good."

"No need to invite me to stay for dinner."

"There's no food for you."

Liang Qu glanced longingly at the dragon corpse, sighed, made up his mind, and turned to leave without looking back.

"and many more."

Liang Qu's eyebrows lit up with joy: "Is there some treasure you'd like to give me? Oh, how embarrassing."

"Your Blood Treasure." Long Ying spoke calmly, floating the Grade One Blood Treasure to the surface of the water.

"..."

"Don't even think about it. I have nothing to give you in my current state."

"Not at all?" Liang Qu made a last-ditch effort. "Everyone in Yixing Town knows I'm grateful and that investing in me won't be a mistake. You've been spying on me all along, you must know!"

There was a long silence.

Wude.

A blood bead the size of a human eye emerged from the sea of ​​blood, flowing into the blood treasure in his hand, shining brightly.

"If you're willing to part with this drop of essence, you can take it back for your wife to use. It's the only thing I can do right now."

"I can't eat it?"

"It doesn't contain the so-called essence you're looking for, so it's not very valuable for you to consume."

Liang Qu's frustration was written all over his face.

Just at this time.

Ze Ding trembled.

[Absorbing three strands of dragon's essence]

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

[Dragon Aura: Eight]

hiss!
They're out! They're out!

Turn around.

It's alright, I made a little money, so I didn't lose anything!

What happened? It wasn't there just now, but it is now?
A dragon's shadow flickered: "Can you gain some benefit from the dragon race?"

"Haha, how could that be..."

"Go to the Northern Golden Sea and ask your senior brother and the Sea Monk for the location of the Dragon Seed Demon. Don't meet him, just take a look from afar, then go back and go into seclusion. This will increase your supernatural powers. I've roughly calculated that the sturgeon demon's rise to power is basically in the interval of one, two, three seclusions. There was only one time that didn't match up. That time, a Pengze Dragon Turtle was mixed in, and the number of Dragon Seed Demons you met was one less than the number you met. The stronger ones can get one more?"

"..."

Spying dog!
"Greetings, Dragon Lord! Long live the Dragon Lord! Goodbye, Dragon Lord!"

Seizing the first-grade blood treasure containing the essence of the Dragon King, Liang Qu jumped into the dark "water pipe," climbed all the way up, transformed into a fish woman, returned to the Blood River, and then went back to the mortal world.

On the Huai River, the fleet had already sailed far away.

Liang Qu looked around suspiciously, but the "Eye-Sense Method" couldn't detect the Dragon Lord's gaze at all.

Suppressing the urge to give the middle finger to the sky, he didn't immediately catch up with the riverboat fleet. Instead, he contacted Awei and Afei via the communication system, instructing Awei to bring his corpse to him quietly. Once he put on the flesh robe, he would force out a trace of essence blood from the first-grade blood treasure. Afei was already carrying the old toad, using it as a transit point, to Pengze to find General Yuan.

A man and a frog sat on the head of a fat catfish.

The old toad scratched its webbed feet, slapped them hard, and resisted the urge to pull at Liang Qu's waistband.

"Liang Qing, what's in your pocket?"

Liang Qu was startled.

Oops.

They forgot the characteristics of the old toad.

What level of treasure is the Dragon Lord's essence blood within me?

Hey.

What kind of people do I deal with every day?

Even a toad won't be greedy for treasure.

That treacherous old bastard.

The voyeuristic old dragon.

Not a single one of them is a normal demon.

"It's nothing, Frog Master. It's just General Yuan giving you the wrong impression. It must be hiding something good that's very attractive to you!"

"Is that so?" the old toad asked suspiciously.

“That’s right!” Liang Qu said with absolute certainty.

The old toad's webbed feet were itching unbearably: "Then we need to find a chance to swindle it out of a fortune!"

"That's the way to go. I'll think of a solution when I have time."

With a simple trick, the trouble was diverted eastward, and Shoushan was within easy reach.

The fat catfish broke through the thin mist.

"Squeak! Squeak!"

The monkeys cheered and jumped for joy.

The insects chirped sharply, dropping their stir-fry and darting into their burrows.

The fat catfish swam to the foot of Shoushan Mountain, stretched out its whiskers, tapped them, opened its big mouth, and ate the fruit thrown to it by the monkeys one bite at a time.

Click click click.

"It's you again!" The old tortoise snorted as he saw Liang Qu riding a big fish. "The white ape is dead and turned into a pile of dung by a dragon. You don't want to ask me to help you fight the dragon, do you? No way. I won't give you back the blood cocoon from the longevity worm."

"The transaction may be over, but the sentiment remains. The blood cocoon of the longevity insect is a gift, so there's no reason to ask for it back."

The old tortoise narrowed its eyes: "Then your Yi Wood element is growing..."

"Back then, if the old general had even just needed to hurry, I would have gladly offered him the long-lasting energy of Yi Wood out of consideration for our friendship. But now..."

"Bah! Send a tortoise like me to my death? I heard from Tiemushan that you told the Turtle King and the Frog King to stay put!"

"But I didn't tell the old general to hold back his troops."

"I only stopped moving because I saw the Turtle King and the Frog King weren't moving!"

"Haifang took the initiative!"

General Yuan was speechless and let out a cold snort.

"General, don't panic. I brought you something good today, but I don't need it. Let's exchange." Liang Qu took out a tiny drop of blood from his fingertip.

just in case.

Let's test General Yuan's poison first.

The essence blood given by the Dragon Lord was the size of a human eyeball. This drop was the size of half a mung bean, almost like a suspended dust particle that could float in the air, yet it firmly attracted the attention of the old toad and General Yuan.

"Give me!"

General Yuan suddenly extended his claws.

The Liangqu Canal, which flows for thousands of miles, has vanished without a trace.

General Yuan was furious: "Come back now! How do you intend to exchange me?"

歘.

Liang Qu reappeared, hands behind his back: "Frog Master? How do we switch?"

"Three portions of top-grade medicine!" The old toad jumped around excitedly.

General Yuan already knew the old toad's abilities, and although he was reluctant to argue, he simply agreed: "Deal!"

The three doses of medicine were distributed, with Liang Qu and Frog King each receiving half.

Having confirmed that he had obtained the essence blood, General Yuan couldn't wait to swallow it, and at the same time, a sense of urgency arose: "You brat, where did you get the Dragon Lord's essence blood?"

"It is extracted from the dragon blood fruit of the dragon people."

"Bullshit! How could dragon blood fruit be so pure?"

"otherwise?"

General Yuan was taken aback.

Yes.

otherwise?

Unable to come up with a reasonable explanation, General Yuan was extremely frustrated and almost became enraged.

"Eat, eat, eat! What's there to eat? All you ever do is eat."

With a flick of its claws, the monkeys were scattered by a hurricane, rolling around like gourds, squeaking and yelling.

Liang Qu reached out and created a gentle breeze, catching the monkeys lightly. He said disdainfully, "How big of a tortoise are you? Still so temperamental?"

"I'm just a tortoise, it's not my place for anyone to teach me!" General Yuan scoffed, focusing on refining the material.

The fat catfish looked at the scattered fruits and vegetables on the ground and exclaimed how regrettable it was.

Patting the head of the Monkey King who had come to seek refuge, Liang Qu stared at General Yuan, who had consumed the essence blood.

"What do you see me doing?"

"I've missed you so much these past few days."

"Is there something wrong with the essence blood you gave me?" General Yuan roared in anger.

“I didn’t tamper with it.” Liang Qu raised his hands. “I swear to God, I did something to your essence blood. I will never make any progress in my cultivation for the rest of my life and will have to serve you like a slave, Old Yuan.”

The old tortoise was suspicious.

After waiting for half a day and confirming that there were no problems, Liangqu changed direction and evacuated Pengze.

Arrived in the Jianghuai region.

Liang Qu then separated a grain the size of dust and swallowed it.

Ze Ding did not react.

At the same time, there is no essence.

This is not reasonable.

Dragon blood really has no essence?
Liang Qu squinted; there must be some unknown methods involved.

There are some speculations about how the Dragon Lord has managed to utilize the essence of the water to this day. He doesn't think the Dragon Lord has a way of using this thing. The fact that he knows about its existence is definitely because he spied on him.

Including the initial appearance of the dragon's body, there was no dragon's aura at first, and it was only when the essence blood appeared that it was revealed.

Does the furnace possess some kind of conceptual convergence mechanism?

Force the dragon blood out of his abdomen.

Liang Qu doesn't want to become a dragon person for the time being. As a human, one should have confidence in one's race. A large population is the most powerful thing. Let's leave them all for E Ying.

They caught up with the riverboat fleet, dried off the water, and quietly boarded the boats.

"Beep beep, beep beep, Heavenly King covers the Earth Tiger!"

A sound came from outside the window.

Long Eying was helpless.

She really didn't know why Liang Qu always liked to communicate and connect like this, just like Otter Kai, or rather, Otter Kai learned it from Liang Qu.

I walked barefoot to the window, stepping on the cashmere blanket, and pulled the wooden bolt.

Wow.

The breeze blows.

A fist suddenly appeared in front of my eyes, obscuring my vision.

"signal!"

Long Eying felt inexplicably ashamed and opened her mouth: "The pagoda suppresses the river demon..."

"Wrong, it's chicken stew with mushrooms!"

Liang Qu grinned.

Flip your wrist and open your palm.

A bright red blood cell leaped out.

"Here, a gift!"
