Becoming a God from a Water Monkey

Chapter 1175 The Dove Flutters Its Wings (Part Two)

[This can consume 12,600 points of Water Essence to evolve a portion of the Starfish into a Starweb Fish.]

[Can evolve some types of Starfish into Starweb Fish.]

[This can consume 25,000 points of Water Essence to evolve a portion of the Star Net Fish into a Star Net.]

[Can evolve some of the Starweavers into Starweavers.]

Four rays of light floated within the cauldron.

[Hearing from all directions], [Being in two places at once]

[Limb regeneration], [Ubiquitous].

The yellow bag opened, and Long Pingjiang fed it to Pai Xiaoxing, revealing a large quantity of treasures from the Dragon Palace Treasury.

The golden light shattered twice.

The Radiant Light talent, [Ubiquitous], is projected into the body.

Pai Xiaoxing's body swelled up, becoming increasingly slender, spreading out like a dark red carpet, stretching out its limbs, with golden-eyed little fish swimming around, carrying away the various remains of "Net Big Man" and merging them into the main trunk.

Refining complete.

Long Pinghe untied the ropes, unfolded the map of the East River, and sent Xiao Xing to extend his limbs, take out cinnabar, and mark the map with dots one by one.

The maps were bundled together and passed around layer by layer.

“Take the Dragon Palace waterway and record two copies, one for the Water God and one for the Huai Dong River and Lake Management Office.”

"Inform the Great Shun court."

"The Water Lord's secret order: Don armor today! Don armor today!"

"Ao Miyun, you lead the Dragon Sturgeon to block the sea outlet and ensure that not a single member of the Ghost Mother Sect escapes!"

Patrick Star basks in the sunlight, his limbs stretching freely.

The water currents and whirlpools spread in all directions, and occasionally dragon people and dragon sturgeon would swim out.

One after another, the [vortex escape paths] spread outward from the Dragon Palace, forming a net that gradually grew larger. Countless secret reports passed through the waterways and converged, which were handled by the Third Elder, Long Zongyin, and finally flowed into Liang Qu's hands. An invisible fishing net wrapped around and gathered the East Water, trapping the Ghost Mother Sect, which no longer had the secret protection of the dragon.

The Turtle King, Frog King, and Sea Monk returned first to handle clan affairs.

The dragon people and dragon sturgeon repaired the collapsed houses, while the First Elder and Second Elder discussed how to save the Fire Tree and Silver Flower.

The fists clench together, absorbing the rigidity of the dragon seat, making it easier for the fat catfish to spew out black ink to soften it. Taking advantage of the loss of the rigidity of the dragon seat, the fish slaps its fins and vigorously kneads it, creating two mounds.

[It can consume 63,000 Water Essence to help the Ink Tiger Catfish grow.]

"Fatty."

The fat catfish, working hard to build a brand new throne, raised its head and saw the treasure plant and treasure fish flying in from the sky. It opened its mouth and swallowed them all. Before it could react, it was wrapped in a golden cocoon.

boom!
The flowing ink marks scattered in the water, glossy and smooth like black jade, tiger-headed and wiry, full of vigor.

The majestic Ink Tiger Catfish makes its debut.

A domineering head, a majestic figure, and an incredibly handsome tail.

Surprise.

The fat catfish, beaming with pride, swam out of the Dragon Palace, splashing the aquatic beasts and dragon sturgeon as they turned their heads, swayed their tails, and flicked their rear ends.

The first second-realm demon under the command of the gods has made a grand appearance!

"That's all for now. There will be a reward later when I've finished packing."

欻!
The long beard is folded at a 90-degree angle.

Up!
骨！
The little mirage dragon, wiping the window with a rag, gritted its teeth and scratched wildly with its four claws, tearing the rag to shreds all over the ground.

The Second Elder, who was tidying up the Dragon Palace, glared at the little mirage dragon, who hurriedly gathered up the tattered cloth.

The white ape laughed heartily.

Long Eying, who was standing quietly to the side, smiled slightly. Suddenly, her vision rose straight up, and with a soft cry, Long Eying's buttocks were supported by a hairy hand, and she sat down on the white ape's shoulder.

"How does it feel, Lady Suikoden? Is this your first time visiting the Dragon Palace? What are your thoughts?"

"In the end, I'm happy."

"What do you mean by 'ultimately'... why is it so reluctant?"

“It’s too big.” Long Eying flapped her eyes.

"Hey!" the white ape clenched its fist. "I also think, what's so good about the Jianghuai Dragon Palace? It's too big, doesn't gather any vitality, isn't lively, and you can't even get tofu pudding when you go out. Pingyang Prefecture is much more comfortable."

"This Dragon Palace is nothing but a mountain of problems, requiring constant repairs and maintenance. We haven't even gotten the treasures from the vault, and we're already drowning in debt, just like when my master advanced to the True Immortal realm."

"That's not how it works."

"It's alright, Master doesn't mind."

Stepping further in, the water flowed away, the white ape gradually shrank, and it transformed back into Liangqu.

Long Eying leaned against him: "If you change back like this, won't people outside find out?"

"No, the 'River Stone' isn't lost, nothing's missing." Liang Qu lifted Long Eying by her bottom, held her in his arms, and looked up at her. "You're not just the Water Lord's wife, in a couple of days, you'll be a queen!"

Their eyes met, their eyelashes fluttered, and Long Eying cupped Liang Qu's face in her hands. After a long while, she wrapped her arms around him, closed her eyes, and rested her chin on his shoulder.

"it's over?"

Liang Qu stroked Long Eying's back: "Although I really want to say that it's over, but..."

"Now that you've driven the dragon away, can it still stir up waves?"

Liang Qu kept walking, thought for a moment, and said frankly, "I can't be careless in the future, especially in the next few years."

Long Eying asked, puzzled, "Why?"

"My main strength in fighting the dragon was the [Divine Might] that I gained by sacrificing my life. This time it worked because it caught us off guard. Next time, we will be prepared. If the dragon or something even more powerful were to take it down, we would actually be evenly matched, or even weaker than it."

"Even more powerful, the Whale King? Will it intervene?"

"It has already intervened."

"You mean the dragon was ultimately saved?"

"Do not."

Holding Long Eying, Liang Qu sat on the dragon throne and sighed softly.

joy.

Defeating the dragon is naturally a cause for joy.

Then came melancholy.

After a great battle, the Whale King appeared at the end. His feeling was that halfway through the battle, Laozi had found his fire-tending boy, the Green Ox Demon, who had descended to the mortal world to cause trouble.

There are several key moments in the battle against the dragon.

In the southern border region, both he and Jiaolong could move freely without either suppressing the other. With the help of the old toad, Liangqu was always one step ahead of Jiaolong, which was reasonable.

During the Jianghuai period, his great power was not yet apparent, and the marshland had not yet been opened. Jiaolong was fighting on his home turf, relying on his high Jianghuai favor to suppress his [Water Travels a Thousand Miles] which had a lower favor. This is also understandable.

But once outside the southern border and across the Lu Cang River into the South China Sea, Liangqu was also suppressed by the dragon [Water Travel Thousands of Miles]! If the White Dragon King hadn't suddenly made a move that attracted the dragon's attention, forcing it to urgently head north to defend, it's hard to say whether there would have been any changes along the way.

This is unusual.

What makes a dragon in the South China Sea capable of suppressing its "water travel of a thousand miles" ability?
Especially when they intersect, they rush to the East China Sea, where the suppression disappears without a trace.

It must be that the dragon obtained the restricted Vajra Bracelet and Purple Gold Gourd!
"It was one thing when it was in the South China Sea, and another when the Jiaolong entered the southern border. At first, I thought that the Jiaolong was sacrificing a pawn to save the king when it went to the Cangjiang River, but later I realized that it was an open conspiracy."

The dragon's magical arts were all designed for water manipulation; they could only succeed. Either it would successfully seize the fruit of its power and confront me head-on, or it would be interrupted by an even stronger force, allowing it to use the opportunity to escape.

"The melting pot of southern Xinjiang?"

"Yes, the dragon went to the Southern Frontier to create an excuse for the Whale King to intervene. However, something went wrong. It wasn't the Southern Frontier Martial Immortal who interrupted its journey, but me. However, my Drought Demon also displeased the Southern Frontier Martial Immortal. By a twist of fate, we achieved the same goal."

"Boss, boss, why does the Whale King need an excuse to intervene?"

The little mirage dragon came running over excitedly, surrounded by Fist, Fat Catfish, "Can't Move," and Round Head.

Liang Qu gave it some thought.

"name."

"Name? What name?" The little mirage dragon scratched its head.

"The dragon entered the river from the sea and even worked under the Whale King, which can be considered a 'normal resignation,' jumping from one manager to another. The two managers had a good relationship, so the former manager issued a certificate to the dragon confirming that it was a normal resignation and there was no error."

Now that the second-in-command has fallen, Jiaolong wants to become the new second-in-command. I'm competing with him and have the upper hand. It looks like things are going to fall apart. The former first-in-command stepped in to protect Jiaolong. That so-called "normal resignation" will then be suspected of being a "spy," and the first-in-command's character will be questioned. That's what gives him a bad reputation.

"So what if the Furnace Demon Emperor is ruined? What's there to be afraid of?" The little mirage dragon flicked its tail.

"Because there is more than one shop in the world, those who act justly will find many supporters, while those who act unjustly will find few. People will feel sorry for the rabbit when it dies. No one wants to see someone who is scheming and capable of setting up a trap to frame the second shopkeeper continue to grow and become stronger."

Otherwise, who knows what their future situation will be? Even if one is truly cunning, it is not advisable to reveal it before achieving success.

A tyrant is controlled by Hong Wei. A tyrant will never achieve anything.

The aquatic creatures were greatly amazed.

The fat catfish waved its long whiskers, and recorded the words of the gods in a small notebook, diligently absorbing their teachings.

The little mirage dragon sneaked around to peek, but was knocked away by a whisker from the fat catfish.

A battle between black and white.

"The martial arts master from the Southern Frontier made the first move, which is equivalent to the third shopkeeper intervening and interfering with the fair competition. At the same time, the fourth shopkeeper from Da Shun also stepped in to confront the third shopkeeper."

At this point, the head shopkeeper, citing their old friendship, protected the dragon, which, by virtue of a joint effort, seemed to demonstrate loyalty and righteousness in curbing the situation. Most of the martial arts masters of the Southern Frontier, being quite astute, proactively suggested ending the matter there, thus doing Whale King a favor.

"Huh?" The fighting stopped, and the little mirage dragon, its head steaming, scratched its horns. "Boss, isn't it said that those who act unjustly will find many allies? Why do we still have to do favors for them?"

"Idiot! Those who act against the will find themselves isolated!" Fatty looked up. "Hehehe."

“When it comes to people and things, who would deliberately trip someone up to test them? Unless you’re truly mortal enemies, you’d always be all smiles and pleasantries on the surface. Since it’s hard to tell what’s going on now, you can go along with it, do them a small favor, and if things really work out in the future, they’ll come knocking on your door, making things easier,” Long Eying patiently explained.

The fat catfish's eyes lit up, its long whiskers curled into a brush, and it began to write furiously.

"Uh... what a loss."

Liang Qu stroked his forehead.

He took out the drought demon, interrupted the dragon's movement, and revealed his trump card. The difficulty of finding an opportunity to feed it to the fake dragon in the future will increase dramatically.

If we don't exorcise the drought demon...

Whether the Martial Immortal of Southern Xinjiang will make a move, and whether the Whale King can hold back, remains to be seen.

How important are the purposes and roles of the Jiaolong (a type of caldera) occupying the ecological niche in the Yangtze-Huaihe River region to the whale king? If the Jiaolong truly fails, will the whale king turn its attention to itself?
According to General Yuan's view of the furnace, no matter how many people die, Wu Xian may not care; perhaps everyone will often sit down to drink tea and play cards.

The Whale Emperor can travel wherever he wants; all he needs to do is send a formal invitation. National boundaries have almost no effect on the powerhouses of the Forge, and it's merely a matter of courtesy.

The Southern Martial Immortal has such a strong opinion about the Ba Fruit, and from the current perspective, he seems more like a damned, filthy monkey, digging out a lump of uncomposted manure and burning the seedlings in my yard.

However, all of this is because territory and treasures are useless to "immortals" and do not involve "transformation into a rainbow".

Liang Qu is the Whale King. Once he realizes that the Flood Dragon is no match for the White Ape, he will definitely choose to replace the "son" and try to win over and control the new ruler. In the meantime, the Flood Dragon may have one last chance to prove itself after regrouping.

If he can summon five demon kings to help him, how many more can the dragon summon in the vast ocean with the help of the whale king?

"If you can be a thief for a thousand days, you can't guard against thieves for a thousand days."

“What’s done is done.” Long Eying reached out and intertwined her fingers with Liang Qu’s. “Things can’t always go smoothly. If we can achieve half of our goal, my husband is already very capable.”

"Hey!" Liang Qu grasped the little hand and looked at the water beast.

The fists pounded the pincers, the fat catfish waved its barbels, and the round-headed finless porpoise led the choreographed dance.

In any case, at least for now, life is vibrant and joyful.

He had a thought in his mind.

Wow!
The white vapor dissipated, and the water flowed backward.

Long Eying's eyes lit up, and she reached out and pinched the "little fat catfish" with her index finger and thumb.

The majestic Ink Tiger Catfish has shrunk to the size of a thumb!

The fat catfish was terrified, looking left and right, darting around "Five Finger Mountain" like a chubby black salamander.

"Cannot move," fist, round head, all turned into miniature thumbfish.

"How interesting! How did you do that?" Long Eying exclaimed happily.

“My creatures of the marshland.” Liang Qu said with an air of authority, watching a group of finless porpoises circling around his palm and fingers like monster capsules. “Add a bit of the power of Ruyi Longevity, and it can only be used on specific targets; it won’t work on others or inanimate objects.”

The thumb-sized fat catfish twisted into human form, plump and dark, and bossed the little mirage dragon around. The little mirage dragon immediately materialized, expanding and growing larger. Its head alone was twice the size of the fat catfish's body. The fat catfish was startled and grabbed Long Eying's index finger, scrambling to escape.

"A realm of rainbows, a furnace of melting pots, a palace of perfected forms..."

Knocking on the Heavenly Gate is like violently opening up one's own 'Heavenly Palace,' leaping from three-dimensional to two-dimensional, transforming into a rushing 'hand'! Or rather, a 'horn'!
"The 'horn' wields great power, capable of transforming into a single entity encompassing heaven and earth. By leveraging this unified entity, it can integrate other powers and create a truly unique small world!"

Having once seized the fruit of the drought demon, and reflecting on the path before the Dragon King's transformation into a rainbow and the furnace.

As expected, Zeguo was indeed a dragon of supreme power, violently breaking through a corner of its own world.

The marshland opens, and the gates of heaven are knocked upon.

Even now, the ascension continues unabated. The Qi Sea within Liang Qu's body is still constantly interacting with heaven and earth, becoming increasingly connected and strengthening itself. This process will continue for at least another month.

but……

Liang Qu looked up at the sky.

"Wuzhiqi..."

The fat catfish darted around her fingers, and Long Eying glanced at Liang Qu, sensing that he had something on his mind.

"Ah Fei," Liang Qu tilted his head, "how did you convince the White Dragon King to make the trip?"

The White Dragon King of the E River did not directly participate in the struggle between the water lords; he merely moved his lair. However, this did greatly frighten the dragons. Even if the White Dragon King remained still afterward, it would inevitably attract the dragons' attention.

Logically and emotionally, in addition to the Frog King, Turtle King, Sea Monk, Frog Lord, and General Yuan, he also had to prepare a generous gift for the White Dragon King.

Living beyond one's means.

Loans are king.

Just thinking about it makes me feel short of money, and the days of repaying the loan are tight.

Strange, why does it look like a fat catfish?

The fat catfish emerged from the palm, flicked its tail, raised its head and puffed out its chest as it walked in front of the hand, waving its fins to attract the attention of all the aquatic creatures.

Hearing Ah Fei boast about how he could use his silver tongue to win people over, the water beasts were filled with envy.

Liang Qu gathered his scattered thoughts and smiled.

We are now only one step away from achieving complete success.

"Pingjiang, Pinghe!"

"To!"

Liang Qu took off the magical token from his waist and looked at the two dragon people who were the first to follow him and the only two he commanded.

"You two, take this order and go to the front line in Lingnan immediately."

"Yes!"

……

Wine gourds rolled all over the ground, and the air was filled with the intoxicating smell of alcohol.

Meng Yi, with a scraggly beard and listless eyes, slumped in the recliner.

As the war dragged on, he had been stripped of his military power by the chieftain.

With two major Gu worms, the Mayfly Blood-Gathering Gu and the Blood-Concealing Gu, he thought that great military merit was within his grasp and that it was the hope for his family to advance further. He went through countless hardships and pulled many strings to finally seize the opportunity to command troops...

Wow.

A gust of wind blew in his face, and the sunlight stung Meng Yi, causing him to squint instinctively. He felt as uncomfortable as a leech that had been sprinkled with salt, and frowned as he scolded, "Didn't you say not to bother me!"

"General! Please stop drinking." The guard stepped forward quickly and whispered in his ear.

Meng Yi suddenly opened his eyes and grabbed the guard's collar: "Really?"

"What the centipede shaman said is absolutely true!"

Meng Yi suddenly rolled over and ran out of the tent.

boom!
The door is open.

Meng Yi staggered into the courtyard.

"Great shaman! Great shaman! Have you truly obtained the Qi of Liangqu?"

"It can't be wrong."

Centipede's face was also deeply weary. He frowned at the smell of alcohol emanating from Meng Yi and pointed to the basin of water on the table.

Meng Yi leaped out like a fish, almost greedily embracing the basin. He stroked the rim of the basin with his hand as if caressing the girl's smooth back, his eyes fixed on her.

Why was this battle such a crushing defeat?

With Liang Qu, one man alone fought against three hundred elephants.

Secondly, a white ape, having died and been resurrected, suddenly appeared as a "stone in the river," slaying Pan Dong and then summoning a dragon, causing chaos in the southern borderlands.

Later, even immortals appeared.

The White Ape's identity is now public knowledge, and with limited resources in the Jianghuai region, the same plan cannot be repeated. The King of the South Sea has also been summoned by the Great Shun court to support Heyuan Prefecture.

Liangqu is the most crucial point!
After tracking them for a thousand miles and pinpointing their location, all that remains is to "retreat when the enemy advances, harass when the enemy camps, attack when the enemy is exhausted, and pursue when the enemy retreats!"

What can you do? Can you protect all the precious elephants of the Great Shun? If you come to the Southern Frontier, disperse and seize the opportunity to counterattack.

Killing civilians to vent anger?

Is this how you write the characters "Xingyi" in your title, Marquis of Xingyi?
"Great shaman, we still have a chance, we still have a chance! Can we pinpoint Liang Qu's location now?"

Centipede shook his head: "They're not within a thousand miles. Perhaps they've already left the front lines because of the victory..."

Halfway through his words, he stopped abruptly.

Meng Yi's eyes lit up. Overjoyed, he was completely unaware of the shaman's strange behavior. He carefully carried the basin of water reflecting his face and was about to summon his guards to gather all five types of poisons and nine types of poisons to collect a portion.

Boom!
The courtyard gate was flung open, and Meng Yi's personal guard stumbled in.

Meng Yi angrily rebuked, "How can you lose your composure in front of a great shaman?"

"General, something terrible has happened!" The guard slipped and fell, covered in mud. "Liang Qu, the Marquis of Xingyi of the Great Shun Dynasty... Liang Qu has broken through the Heavenly Gate and become a Martial Saint!"

Meng Yi's pupils contracted, and he stared blankly back at Centipede.

The centipede's lips quickly lost their color, its cheek muscles bulged, and the handrail in its palm was crushed into dust.

"Bang."

The porcelain basin fell to the ground and cracked in two.

Meng Yi knelt down on the ground.

howling.
