If you don't give up, I'd like to be your adoptive father.

Chapter 550 Returning to Yingxiang Mansion
After the banquet, Grandma Yu packed her luggage and prepared to say goodbye to the monsters.

In six years, her thick black hair has grown to the point where it reaches her knees.

You can no longer let your semi-long hair down or tie it into a simple ponytail like when you were a kid.

At this time, she had her hair tied up in a Taoist bun, and used a fire crystal shrimp whisker as thick as a chopstick as a hairpin. The clothes she wore were not a skirt or gown, but loose black clothes similar to those worn by nuns.

The difference between black clothes and ordinary skirts is mainly reflected in two aspects.

First of all, the skirt has a belt at the waist, showing off the graceful female curves.

The black dress was like a barrel suit, hiding Xiaoyu's fully developed and curvy figure, making it difficult to see her chest, let alone her slender waist.

Secondly, both men and women, if their family conditions are a little better, will decorate their clothes with various accessories. The colors will also be brighter, and the fabrics will have all kinds of beautiful and elegant patterns.

The black robe is plain, bare, with nothing on it.

After reciting Taoist and Buddhist scriptures for six years, Xiao Yu really regarded himself as a "scholar of wandering".

Of course, at this moment, her skin was as white as jade, her body was light and fragrant, and she was graceful and slender.

She refused to cut her hair and become a "bald nun", which was a bit like the "fake nuns" she despised in the past.

Xiaoyu put on a blue-gray snakeskin robe and shook the cuffs lightly. The sleeves seemed to come alive, opened their mouths wide, and sucked the objects on the table fiercely.

Three linen packages containing her spare clothes, shoes and socks.

There are five jars of spiritual wine brewed from the magical herbs and flowers of the Water Palace, each of which is two meters high.

There were seven wooden boxes as big as suitcases, filled with magical herbs unique to the Water Palace.

After that, there were all kinds of sundries that Xiaoyu had brought into the Water Palace.

There were small changes of silver, bottles and jars of elixirs, books, and boxes and bottles suitable for storing magical herbs and medicines.

The elixir mainly comes from the demon cicada.

Thanks to Monk Mang's reminder, they were able to search out the charred corpse of the cicada.

Xiaoyu chewed and ate all the pills that could improve his strength and realm, as long as they were edible.

Now the remaining ones are either not suitable for her to take or are used for healing and saving lives.

"Oh, I'm so stupid. I've forgotten it for the past few years. So stupid and careless."

When Xiaoyu was putting away the green wooden box the size of a pencil case, she was stunned for a moment, then she stamped her feet and shouted in annoyance.

"Grandma, isn't this Xirang? What's wrong?" The fat grandson recognized the green wooden box.

On the night of the Yingxiang Mansion Incident, Grandma Yu collected a lot of spoils.

Before the Battle of Black Dragon River, all the spoils were given to him for safekeeping.

Grandma also specifically told him that he could ignore everything else but must take good care of the green wooden box, not open it, not let water get into it, and not touch it randomly.

He really wanted to open it and eat a piece of soil.

Crabs like to eat mud, so the mud has a strong attraction to them.

His grandmother didn't let him eat it, saying that Xirang had serious consequences and should not be touched casually.

"Xirang is the mother of the earth and the root of the mountains!" Xiaoyu shouted with a conflicted expression while holding the Xirang box.

"I know what Xirang is, but so what?" The fat grandson still didn't understand.

Black King Kong reacted quickly, and asked in surprise: "Mother, are you planning to analyze the 'Earth Mother Qi' of Xirang to practice the 'Earth Demon Transformation'?
As long as you can transform the energy of Mother Earth, you can transform into the earth, rocks, and mountains?"

Hearing the foster father's shout, the demons immediately understood what was going on.

Grandma analyzed the true origin of the dragon.

She can quickly master the transformation of any aquatic creature that can evolve from the true dragon origin.

The true dragon is the ancestor of water monsters, and Xirang is the mother of the earth and mountains.

If we can analyze the "Earth Mother Qi" of Xirang, can we change it into soil, rock or mountain by imitating the Earth Mother Qi?

"Grandma, don't be upset, you haven't been idle or wasting time in the past few years.

The Xirang has not been lost yet.

In the next few years, you can just focus on studying Xirang." The fat grandson consoled him.

Xiao Yu frowned and said, "Xirang will be used to repair the big cracks in the underworld blessed land of Guaizi Mountain.

If we want to study the mother energy of the earth, there will definitely be considerable losses."

The fat grandson said disapprovingly, "It's fine if there's damage. The ground fissure disaster at Guaizi Mountain is already blamed on the demon cicada. He neglected his duty and didn't fill the last abyss, and then he came to Tianmen Town to kill you. He was totally wrong.

You deserve all the spoils you have gained.”

"Alas, karma won't reason with you!"

Xiaoyu sighed and put the green wooden box, the broken Soul-Falling Bell and several other items into his sleeves.

"I'm leaving now. You guys should practice well. Remember, you must never leave the Water Palace until you transform into a dragon."

"Grandma, take care of yourself!"

At this moment, the rapid current in the Tianhe River vortex is still very strong, no different from six years ago.

There is no sign of a change in the torrent in half a month.

Although the rapids were still as powerful as ever, Xiaoyu's feelings were completely different from six years ago.

She didn't even transform into a black dragon, nor did she take off her fish-scale boots and step into the water barefoot.

Her body was emitting a light blue glow, and her clothes were not wet by the water.

This is the ancient dragon’s magical power “Tianhe Water Palace”.

The bubbles that were spit out from the golden carp jade pendant were a simplified version of the Tianhe Water Palace, a one-time magic.

In human form, he cannot use the original ancient dragon's magical powers.

In fact, Xiaoyu believes that more than half of the sixteen ancient dragon magical powers demonstrated in Dragon Ball Memory are a bit outdated in today's Pangu world.

The laws of heaven and earth have changed, becoming more orderly and detailed.

Taking the method of using water as an example, there may have been only one "Water Avenue" in the past. The ancient dragon's magical power directly pried open the "Water Avenue" and triggered the magical effect.

Now the "Great Way of Water" itself has become more perfect. Under the "Great Way of Water", there are many water laws, almost woven into a law network; under the law network, there are many divine laws, and the divine laws are mixed with water-related laws, magical powers, and special arts that have not yet become laws.
This is equivalent to the past when the population was small, and one county magistrate was assigned to a county office to handle the affairs of the entire county. Now, under the county magistrate, there are county assistants, county lieutenants, and chief clerks, three shifts and six rooms, patrol inspectors, gate officers, and post station assistants. There are even "patrol officers" who are responsible for astronomy and meteorology.

In the past, the ancient dragon's magical power directly asked the county magistrate (the Great Way of Water) to do things; now with the magical power of Taoism, if you want to achieve a certain goal, you can find a special official (the way of God or the law of nature) without disturbing the county magistrate (the Great Way of Water).

The difficulty of finding a clerk in the yamen is definitely much lower than asking the county magistrate to do things for you.

In ancient times, Gu Long was able to get the county magistrate to work for him because he was wealthy and did not care about the price he paid (the mental energy and vast amounts of heaven and earth energy consumed in casting spells).

River monsters like Black King Kong simply cannot meet the requirements to display the ancient dragon's magical powers.

Today, the Pangu world is divided into the heaven, the middle world, and the human world.

The world is far from what it was in ancient times, when abundant vitality of heaven and earth could be seen everywhere.

This is why Xiaoyu discovered that the ancient dragon's magical power of "controlling clouds and making rain" is far less exquisite, economical and efficient than the West Sea Dragon King's "turning vital energy into rain".

The "Tianhe Water Palace" that Xiaoyu is using now has made a significant adjustment to the ancient dragon's magical powers, and did not inflate a huge bubble.

It just clung to her body, emitting a hazy green light, isolating her from the powerful torrent outside.

She didn't need to tread water because she was floating downstream and the rapids were "jetting" her into the underground river.

Xiaoyu is suspended in the rapids, with his hands behind his back and his sleeves fluttering, like a fairy riding on the clouds, very free and easy and leisurely.

But her eyes and brain were not idle.

His eyes opened the "demon eyes", emitting faint light, allowing him to see through the rapids and water elemental forces around him and see the Shinto laws contained therein.

The Tianhe vortex near the eye of the vortex is an "alternative dimension of water".

The water flow, water force, and water laws inside have blurred boundaries and are in a state close to chaos.

Six years ago, she knew that the time and space here were different, but she was confused and didn't know why.

Today, she has mastered the ancient dragon's magical power "Tianhe Water Vortex", and even knows how to use great magic power to create a similar water vortex. Naturally, she can see through the essence of the "different dimension of water".

"Now, I can go directly into the Black Dragon River like the ancient Yellow Dragon did back then. There is no need to walk along the rapids."

Xiaoyu observed for a moment, thought for a moment, then took a step forward and disappeared in the rapids.

She entered the law of water, surrounded by the hazy green water spiritual power and the golden threads of the Shinto law.

In just seven or eight breaths, the threads of laws around her disappeared, and she fell into the cold, clear water again.

Xiaoyu kicked her feet lightly, "Hua La La!"

She was like a rocket, breaking through the water and entering the starry night sky.

"Whoosh~~~" The cold wind whistled, she closed her eyes, opened her arms, and welcomed the night breeze before the dawn of spring.

A look of enjoyment, even a little bit touched.

"Oh, it's too fast."

After only enjoying and being moved for a moment, Xiao Yu put aside all distractions and fell into the Black Dragon River again. He once again used the magical power of "Tianhe Water Vortex" to sense the laws of water in the water, and did not move for a long time.

A 100,000-meter-long nylon thread is wound around the shuttle to become a shuttle thread.

The shuttle thread may be only half a meter high.

A person the size of a bacterium ran wildly along the silk thread for more than half a month and finally reached the other end of the rope, a total of 100,000 meters.

But the distance that the bacteria can move on the shuttle line does not exceed half a meter.

This is the process of Xiaoyu bringing the river monster into the vortex eye.

The turbulent river they were swimming upstream in was the silk thread, which entangled itself in circles, forming a "Sky River Water Vortex".

Just now, Xiaoyu jumped out of the silk thread and moved vertically half a meter "outside", directly from the vortex eye at the bottom to the "human river" at the top of the shuttle thread.

"This road of laws is what I thought of as the 'higher Shinto dimension' in my early years!"

After a long time, Xiaoyu in the Black Dragon River opened his eyes again and floated to the surface with a complicated expression.

She could not re-enter the Law because she was not a "god" recognized by the Heavenly Court.

Shinto laws are like the Internet cables, electrical wires, and telephone lines on Earth in the previous life.

Densely distributed in every corner of the human habitat.

Mortals are normal people.

However, gods in heaven like Fu Shi and Gong Cao Shen can transform themselves into electrical signals.

Become a "digital cyborg".

Digital cyborgs can enter the real world or enter cables, crossing tens of millions of miles from Asia to America in an instant.

The talisman user entered the Shinto dimension and became a "Shinto Cyberman". Following the Shinto laws, he crossed 18,000 miles in an instant, returning from the human world to heaven, or descending from heaven to the human world.

Xiaoyu currently has some potential for "cyberization".

She has a magical martial art that allows her to condense the main god of the magical art by imitating the gods. She can also transform into a "god" (imitating the talisman envoy and the god of Gongcao) through the art of transformation, but she has not obtained a "driver's license" and is not allowed to enter the Shinto dimension.

The reason why one could enter the Water Law of the Tianhe Water Vortex before was because the Water Vortex was a "private property" created by the Immortal Huanglong.

She inherited the mantle of the Immortal Huanglong and also got the key to open the door (the two magical powers of Tianhe Water Vortex and Tianhe Water Palace).

"Hey, isn't that the White Dragon King? Am I back at Yingxiang Mansion?"

Xiaoyu was still floating on the water studying the "Shinto Dimension" when she suddenly caught a glimpse of the Black Dragon River in the distance, and saw a large splash of water approaching her rapidly.

There is clearly a group of river monsters underwater, and the splashes on the water surface are the traces left by their rapid progress.

Xiaoyu could feel the familiar demonic aura and fluctuations of divine power from a distance.

It was the White Dragon King who acted as the "street sweeper" in the Heilong River battle six years ago.

The White Dragon King is the "River God" of the Black Dragon River.

The river god is a river god, but he only controls a certain section of the river.

The river controlled by the White Dragon King is the Black Dragon River in Yingxiang Prefecture.

She actually went straight back to Yingxiang Mansion where she had escaped from.

This fate.
