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

Chapter 640 Shark Pearl
When he saw Yu Zaiheng again, White Dragon King was stunned.

"Didn't you leave Xishu? Why are you back?"

He is the "River God" of the Black Dragon River. Even though he has been busy studying the two volumes of "The Art of Transforming into a Dragon" given to him by Yu Zaiheng, he has not neglected his daily river patrol work.

Therefore, he was very sure that there was no trace of Yu Zaiheng in the waters of the Black Dragon River within Yingxiang Prefecture.

"I came back from Tianhe. Well, it's worthy of the ancient dragon's magical power. It's very convenient to travel back and forth between Black Dragon River and Tianhe.

Forget it, I won't say more. This is Biluo, a mermaid, whose mother got lost in the underground water veins of the Black Dragon River.

Please notify the Dragon King and Water God in the Black Dragon River Basin and ask them to help look for it.

Whether Biluo finds her mother or not, you should take care of her for a few years.

When I return from Daqin, I will take her back to my hometown."

After giving Biru a few more instructions, Xiaoyu suddenly disappeared into the Black Dragon River just as he had done when he came.

In fact, she now travels back and forth between the Black Dragon River and the Tianhe River, much like the celestial envoy traveling back and forth between the human world and the heaven.

The talisman user is faster and more efficient than her, and can return directly to the South Heaven Gate from any location on earth.

This is the power of the "Three Realms Divine Law Network" constructed by the saints uniting all the great immortals and gods.

Comparing the ancient times with the present time is like Xiaoyu's previous life on Earth, from ancient times to the Internet digital age.

The era of Pangu's world did not stay in one place. There was no progress, but only constant reincarnation.

It really is spiraling.

However, what was rising was not the technological civilization, but the Shinto and immortal civilization.

With the help of the "private network" built by Huanglong Zhenren (the laws of Tianhe Water Vortex Shinto), Xiaoyu returned to Tianhe and continued to practice in his own "Starlight Hut".

Not only did she practice herself, she also called out Xiaoqiang from the dog treasure and asked it to practice with her.

Xiao Qiang said: "When I was alive, I could absorb the essence of the sun and the moon. But now that Black Mountain has become the original body, how can I cultivate the power of the stars? There is not even a technique."

“Don’t worry about what kind of skills you use, or what kind of stars correspond to what kind of power.

As long as it is starlight energy, you absorb it into the dog treasure and make the dog treasure 'star-like'.

Well, I am currently creating sword techniques related to the power of stars and need experimental materials. "

Xiaoyu had come into contact with the power of stars before.

For example, Ge Qing’s Star Array.

For example, Zhou Lang’s Seven Star Sword Formation.

Both can draw and utilize the power of the stars.

She was able to use the "method of destroying my father" to break their techniques, so naturally she had some understanding of how to utilize the power of the stars.

But the methods she knew were very crude and far from meeting her needs.

Instead of becoming an immortal by relying on starlight, she must at least create a "Zhou Tian Xing Dou Sword Technique" that can cross the starry sky.

"Master, you want me to try? No, I can't stand it. It's better to find a demon king who possesses the power of stars. Master, kill him and take away his demon pill. You can directly read the demon text in the demon pill." Xiaoqiang suggested.

Xiaoyu looked around at the vast ocean and felt a little excited, but still shook her head and said, "We are new here, so it's better to be honest."

This is Tianhe River, not Heilong River.

The strength of the Black Dragon River water monster has an upper limit, which is the level of the White Dragon King. The Bashen God is an outlier.

There are probably countless monsters in the Milky Way that are stronger than the great god Bashe.

Moreover, she heard from the old mermaid that the water monsters in Tianhe River rarely transform into human form, and often exist in the form of ancient giant beasts, making it difficult for them to communicate normally.

In other words, unwilling to communicate with lowly humans.

It is not easy to worship the godfather.

"Master, I have to remind you that your purpose of entering the Tianhe River is to enter the Southern Continent through the Tianhe River.

Now you should look for the second Tianhe water vortex, which can directly reach the vortices of the major rivers in Jambu Continent.

Instead of trying to enter a certain star palace.

You are so arrogant in the mortal world, if you meet the master of the Star Palace, you will definitely not be able to defeat him in one match. "Xiao Qiang said.

Xiao Yu said: "We went to Daqin for cultivation. Now that Tianhe has a great opportunity and the Zhoutian stars are right in front of us, why rush to Daqin?
Don't worry, I'm just studying how to cross the starry sky.

Having an extra skill to escape doesn't mean you're really going to heaven to die."

After practicing for another half a month, Xiao Yu was already able to draw the power of starlight into his body and refine it into "true qi".

It’s no wonder that the efficiency of refining Qi by absorbing the power of starlight is much higher than absorbing natural spiritual energy.

Even without magical herbs and elixirs, she would definitely complete the "Marrow Change" within three to five years by just absorbing the power of the stars in the Milky Way.

On this day, she lay on her back in the river as usual, quietly enjoying the shining of the starlight.

"Boom~~~"

The water surface suddenly vibrated slightly, and bursts of muffled sounds came from the deep water area in the distance.

Xiaoyu immediately sensed the powerful explosion of water spiritual power.

"Did the mermaids encounter an enemy?"

She raised her eyebrows, and quickly sank down, her bare feet gently treading water, "Swoosh!"

Tianhe has too much water power for her to borrow.

After just a few kicks, her speed had broken the speed of sound, but there was no shock wave.

After a while, she arrived at the mermaid tribe, which was twenty miles away from her "Starlight Cottage".

Mermaids also make their homes near coral reefs, but their homes are deeper and more hidden, requiring many detours to get in.

They did encounter enemies, also a group of "fishmen".

The mermaid is a "mermaid", and the enemy is a monster: a fish head, a human face, human limbs, and a fish torso and tail.

Mermaids only have long tails, and their bodies are about the same size as ordinary people. This group of fishmen are all tall and mighty, with an average height of more than ten feet, and the largest is two and a half feet, seven or eight meters, and there are about one hundred and twenty of them in total.

The violent vibration just now should have come from the fight between the giant fishman and the old mermaid.

The old mermaid looks skinny and old, but the "energy" in her body is very strong.

She herself said that she had lived for fourteen thousand years.

Even if a human warrior practices "immortal martial arts" for more than 10,000 years, he will become a super human immortal.

The old mermaid was holding a copper hammer as big as a winter melon, and it collided with the two steel forks of the giant fishman.

The copper hammer seemed to be a magic weapon. It could be smashed out like a cannonball, and it could be taken back instantly by reciting a spell.

The giant fishman is a physical monster with terrifying physique and endurance. He fought head-on with a steel fork and was not killed.

"Stop~~~" Xiaoyu couldn't help it when he saw a fishman grabbing Biruo's brother and stuffing him into his mouth.

"Swoosh~~" The sword turned into a beam of green light that could not be captured by the naked eye. In an instant, it crossed more than two hundred feet and pierced the fishman's wrist.
"Boom~~"

Xiao Yu's goal was to pierce the arm and save Bi Ruo's younger brother, but Qiao Shi's sword directly blew off the fishman's arm. The ancient dragon's magical power, the Lord of Ten Thousand Waters, performed the "Quick Sand Sword Qi", which was a bit unfamiliar, and the combination of the two was not good enough.

Fortunately, the mermaid was not affected.

"Fairy?"

Immediately, several fishmen noticed her and flew towards her with ferocious faces, roaring with strange emphasis, "Where did you come from, immortal? Why do you want to hurt the warriors of our tribe?"

"Don't come over here, I'll hurt you if you come over here."

Xiaoyu was moving backwards instead of forwards, shouting loudly as he swam backwards.

"Split up and surround her!"

How could the fishman listen to her?

They dispersed and surrounded Xiaoyu from the front and back.

Xiaoyu hesitated for a moment, but decided not to continue escaping.

"You asked for this."

She stretched out her hand and the sword turned into a stream of light and fell into her right hand. Then she became one with the sword and teleported to the fishman opposite. She deftly avoided the opponent's harpoon and cut off his tendons with one sword.

Without stopping or slowing down, she moved sideways six or seven feet, came to another murloc, crippled him, and then the third murloc. A mermaid warrior wanted to take the opportunity to attack the murloc whose arm was crippled, but was kicked away by Xiaoyu.

Finally, seeing that the scene was really chaotic, she had no choice but to use her great magical power.

"Stop it all!"

As she shouted, the Qiao Shi sword in her hand swung out a sword energy that was a hundred feet long. The quicksand sword energy activated by the Lord of Ten Thousand Waters was not aimed at anyone, but just rolled up a huge wave, rushing the team of fishmen and mermaids into pieces and making them dizzy.

“There are immortals helping the mermaids. We are no match for them. Let’s retreat first, quickly, quickly~~~” The giant fish man was strong and was the first to stabilize his body. He didn’t dare to look at “Yu Xiangu”. He shouted, turned around and swam deeper.

"Don't chase them, let them go!"

Not only did Xiaoyu not chase after the mermaid, she also stopped the mermaid who wanted to chase after her.

The merman had a look of dissatisfaction on his face, but was afraid of her magical powers and dared not say anything.

The old mermaid asked her tribe to clean up the mess, and she came to Xiaoyu, prostrating herself again, and said, "Thank you, fairy, for helping us drive away the enemy."

"Are they 'Lingyu'?" Xiaoyu asked.

“Well, since the fairy knows them, why doesn’t she let us kill them?” the old mermaid asked puzzledly.

Xiao Yu said unhappily: "The legendary 'Lingyu' has a good reputation. You mermaids don't seem like good people.

They came to attack you, most likely because you did something bad first."

Lingyu is also considered a strange beast in "Classic of Mountains and Seas", with a relatively gentle temperament. In the legendary stories of Western Shu, mermaids are even more gentle and beautiful, with a reputation equivalent to "water fairy".

As a result, the mermaid Xiaoyu met was cruel and lustful. Apart from her good looks, she had no other notable advantages. Well, it seemed that the little mermaid had a good personality. Biluo and her younger siblings were all very cute.

Will mermaids turn bad when they grow up?

"Alas, there are no good people in Tianhe."

The old mermaid knew that she still remembered the conflict when they first met, and also knew that she had taught Biruo etiquette and principles for half a month.

The expression on her old face was very complicated, and she sighed and said, "The fairy has also lived in Tianhe for a while, and she must have discovered that although Tianhe is large, its resources are very poor.

To feed a large family, you have to eat everything and grab everything.

You said that the Lingyu has a good reputation, but they want to steal our coral reef!"

Xiao Yu said: "Is Tianhe's resources barren? It's just that you are guarding a mountain of gold and silver, but you don't know how to develop it."

The Tianhe River has a large amount of water and is extremely deep, with few islands and reefs and little vegetation.

If you leave the islands and reefs, you can hardly see any aquatic plants.

There are few aquatic plants and few aquatic animals that can be supported.

It seems very barren.

"What are the mountains of gold and silver? Fairy, can you tell me clearly?" asked the old mermaid.

Xiaoyu was about to speak when suddenly a female mermaid swam over.

"Mother-in-law, Xiluo was killed by Lingyu. This is his mermaid pearl." She held a pearl in her hand.

As big as a longan, round and flawless, with a natural luster like water ripples on the surface.

At first glance, it seemed crystal clear like crystal, but after staring at it for a long time, there seemed to be shadows of waves and mermaids in it.

As you continue to watch, it seems that other phantoms flash by quickly. It is very mysterious and very attractive.

Seeing Xiaoyu staring at the mermaid pearl, the old mermaid felt a little uneasy.

She wanted to put the mermaid pearl away several times, but she held back and spread out her hands to let Yu Xiangu take a good look.

"The mermaid pearls are so beautiful, are they the mermaid's tears or inner elixir?" Xiaoyu asked.

“It’s both tears and inner elixir. Before a mermaid dies, the essence and soul in her body turn into tears and flow out. It only happens once in a lifetime, and there is only one tear each time.” The old mermaid took the initiative to hand over the mermaid pearl.

Xiao Yu sensed it for a moment, then showed a look of delight and asked, "Do you have a lot of mermaid pearls hidden?"

“Not many, not many. There are very few of us mermaids.” There was panic and fear in the old mermaid’s eyes.

Xiao Yu glanced at her and said with a smile: "I am a virtuous person from the Xuanmen, how could I covet the treasures of you mermaids? Look."

She opened her arms and turned around in the water. Her upper body remained the same, but the two long legs without boots under her black clothes disappeared, replaced by a slender and beautiful fish tail.

The scales sparkle with the brilliance of stars, more beautiful than any murloc's tail.

The old mermaid was stunned for a moment, then she exclaimed: "The fairy lady's transformation technique is really powerful. Even I find it difficult to find the flaw."

The mermaid Xiaoyu said: "You can still find the flaw, right?"

The old mermaid hesitated for a moment, then nodded and said, "Half of the tail is an illusion."

"You have good eyesight." The mermaid Xiaoyu held up the mermaid pearl and said, "The mermaid pearl contains some of the memories of the deceased before his death.

The most beautiful and the most painful memories, the memories of practicing secret techniques, the feeling of swimming in the water. I don’t want the mermaid pearl, I only want to read the memories inside.

As long as there are enough mermaid pearls, I can use your mermaid secrets and insights to make the "Mermaid Transformation" perfect."

The old mermaid was shocked and angry, and blurted out: "You actually want to steal the secret of my mermaid bloodline?
This is even more unacceptable than coveting the beauty and magical effects of the mermaid pearl!"

The mermaid Xiaoyu smiled and said, "I am not your enemy. How will knowing the secrets of the mermaids affect you?"
I'll become a perfect mermaid and it won't harm you in any way.

Moreover, I am a virtuous person in the Xuanmen sect and I never take other people's things for free.

Afterwards, I will teach you a set of "Starlight Manual" so that you mermaids can absorb the power of the stars and use the power of the stars to grow crops.

From then on, the mermaid warriors became stronger and the tribe no longer lacked food.

In just three generations, you will be able to produce a large clan with thousands of people.

In a few hundred years, we may even be able to build an underwater city.”
