Dimension Paradise, I am a summoning apostle

Chapter 439 Hidden Pearl Lake in Jinjiang Prefecture, A Fox Demon's Night Visit

Following my memory, I soon entered Jinjiang Prefecture.

Chai Ziheng invited Chu Danqing to visit the Chai family, but Chu Danqing politely declined.

Upon arriving at Jinjiang Prefecture, the trial mission was also completed.

The difficulty of the B-level challenge should lie with the black fish demon and the fox demon, but Chu Danqing dealt with them quickly, and the fox demon, knowing Chu Danqing's prowess, did not dare to make a move.

Of course, this is just Chu Danqing's speculation, and there is no empirical evidence.

[Mission complete. You have received: 5000 Paradise Points, +3 to your attributes]

[Trial Mission: Suppress the evil of the Jade Dragon and Golden Phoenix within 3 months]

[Trial Difficulty: A (Hero)]

[Trial Reward: Paradise Points x 10000, Attribute Points +4]

[Trial Failed: Paradise Points -20000, Random Attribute -1, Forced Return]

Upon entering Jinjiang Prefecture, the difficulty level immediately increased.

Chu Danqing had heard of the Jade Dragon and Golden Phoenix. It was said that the Hidden Pearl Lake in Jinjiang Prefecture was formed from a pearl that the Jade Dragon and Golden Phoenix had been polishing by the Milky Way.

This is why it is called Hidden Pearl Lake.

Upon arriving in Jinjiang Prefecture, Chu Danqing inquired further and learned that tomorrow was the Spring Festival, so he had arrived a day early.

It's difficult to find Bai Zhenniang now.

Chu Danqing had already used up all the effects of the Great Origin Tracing Scroll, so he could only wait.

However, he planned to go to Hidden Pearl Lake first.

If nothing unexpected happens, my trial mission should be related to Hidden Pearl Lake.

The amusement park sent him to Jinjiang Prefecture, and the only place in Jinjiang Prefecture that is related to the Jade Dragon and Golden Phoenix is ​​Hidden Pearl Lake.

That's some kind of intelligence.

Because it's a famous tourist attraction, it's quite easy to find.

With the Spring Festival approaching, Yinzhu Lake is already quite crowded.

There will definitely be even more people tomorrow.

Chu Danqing strolled around Yinzhu Lake for a long time and naturally made some gains.

Beneath the Hidden Pearl Lake, two intertwined and immensely powerful forces of resentment reside.

The problem has not been resolved to this day, which terrifies Chu Danqing.

Fortunately, there are three bottle-shaped stone pagodas on Hidden Pearl Lake to suppress the evil spirits.

This has created a spectacular scene: a deep pool in the lake, the bright moon reflected in the water, a stone pagoda standing in its shadow, and a full moon for eighteen days.

This spectacular sight is not only beautiful, but also the key to suppressing the obsession of the Jade Dragon and Golden Phoenix.

The solution wasn't actually that difficult for Chu Danqing.

Summoning the Goddess of Cats directly would completely obliterate the karmic obstacles formed by the obsessions of Jade Dragon and Golden Phoenix.

However, the trial mission requires calming the situation, not killing the enemy.

This means that the Jade Dragon and Golden Phoenix are involved in subsequent trial missions, and killing them directly may cause the trial missions to fail.

Even if there is no failure, all subsequent task chains will change.

Whether it's good or bad is unclear, but Chu Danqing doesn't want to gamble on being forced to return.

Anyway, there are still three months left, and we haven't reached the end of our rope yet.

After traveling around for a while, I found an inn to stay in.

"Brother, I'm new here, and I've heard that Hidden Pearl Lake in Jinjiang Prefecture is quite famous."

"I wonder if you could tell me about it?" Chu Danqing said, taking a small silver particle as a tip and handing it to the waiter.

Upon seeing this, the waiter immediately beamed and tucked the item into his pocket, saying, "Of course, speaking of Hidden Pearl Lake..."

Those who stay at the guesthouse are definitely not locals.

Many people come specifically to visit Yinzhu Lake, so this isn't the first time the waiter has encountered someone asking about it.

Of all these people, Chu Danqing was the most generous, while most of the others only spent small amounts of money.

Therefore, he gave Chu Danqing a comprehensive introduction, such as where the best places were for drinking and sightseeing, where there were the most young ladies and wives, or which boatmen were the best, as if he knew them all by heart.

Chu Danqing did not interrupt, but listened quietly.

Only after the waiter finished speaking did Chu Danqing ask again, "I've heard that this Hidden Pearl Lake was formed from a pearl that fell from a piece of unpolished jade obtained by the Jade Dragon and Golden Phoenix from the Milky Way?"

When Chu Danqing asked this question, the waiter was taken aback for a moment, but he nodded and said, "That's true."

"It is said that when this pearl was polished, it shone brightly and attracted thieves."

"After it was stolen, Yu Long and Jin Feng found out and chased after him. The thief was so frightened by what he saw that he lost his mind and the pearl fell from the sky with a tremor."

"It landed in our Jinjiang Prefecture and transformed into a lake upon landing."

"The jade dragon and golden phoenix chased after it, but were filled with sorrow and could not turn the lake into a pearl. In the end, they died in despair."

As the waiter spoke, he opened the window and pointed to two mountains, saying, "These two small mountains are said to be the transformations of the Jade Dragon and the Golden Phoenix after their deaths."

"Therefore, in our Jinjiang Prefecture, it is called Jade Dragon Mountain and Golden Phoenix Mountain."

Chu Danqing looked in the direction the other person pointed and indeed there were two mountains, one on the left and one on the right of Hidden Pearl Lake, as if they were guarding it.

"But guests should just take that with a grain of salt," the waiter chuckled. "If this rumor were true, who could possibly steal the pearl from the dragon and phoenix?"

"Moreover, this pearl is made from the unpolished jade of the Milky Way, and it must be incredibly wondrous. How could it have fallen into the hands of thieves?" "I think it's more like a beautiful scene forged by the divine hand of nature. Just listen to these unfounded rumors." The waiter said, then changed the subject and introduced other sights in their Jinjiang Prefecture to Chu Danqing.

Chu Danqing listened attentively without offering any rebuttal.

The waiter didn't know much; there was probably some truth and some falsehood in this rumor.

The specific truth still needs to be investigated by Chu Danqing.

Only after the truth is found can the obsession of Yulong and Jinfeng be quelled.

As for how to investigate, let's try to find the cultivators in Jinjiang Prefecture.

Therefore, Chu Danqing casually steered the conversation towards Buddhism and Taoism.

Upon hearing this, the waiter became excited and introduced Chu Danqing to many temples that were said to be very effective, as well as some fortune tellers.

"Thank you very much. Consider these small coins as a small token of appreciation for tea." Chu Danqing said, handing the other party a small piece of silver, and then said, "I am very interested in the legend of Hidden Pearl Lake."

"Please inquire as much as you can, waiter. If you can hear any delightful stories, you will surely reward me."

With a benefit in hand, the waiter was so happy that his teeth were practically showing. He immediately said, "Young master, don't worry, I'll find you plenty. I guarantee you'll be pleased to hear that."

"The quantity is secondary; the main thing is authenticity. A thousand false stories cannot compare to a single truth." Chu Danqing warned, worried that the other party might fabricate stories for the reward.

"I have practiced some unusual skills since I was a child. Although I am not as skilled as those enlightened masters, I can still use them to distinguish between truth and falsehood."

"If you try to trick me for a reward, don't blame me for being ruthless."

After saying that, Da Bao crushed the teacup into powder and slowly spread it on the table.

Chu Danqing knew about the diversity of people. He gave them the benefits, but he definitely had to leave them some kind of insurance.

The waiter's eyes widened in disbelief; he never expected that this strangely shaped giant would be so powerful.

I had some ulterior motives, but they've all vanished without a trace.

"Don't worry, young master, I guarantee I'm not lying." The waiter understood that while the reward money was good, it was also a hot potato.

Returning it is absolutely out of the question, so I can only try my best to find out more.

"Go ahead and get busy," Chu Danqing said, waving her hand.

The waiter felt as if he had been granted a pardon and immediately left the room where Chu Danqing was staying.

After the person left, Chu Danqing naturally began her cultivation as usual.

Not only him, but Da Bao also started cultivating.

The black fish demon isn't something you eat for nothing; it's incredibly nutritious.

Although it can't compare to the resources Chu Danqing purchased from the amusement park, every little bit helps.

It's rare to find a suitable resource.

Late into the night, a fragrant breeze wafted in through the cracks in the window.

Not only did Da Bao wake up, but Chu Danqing also noticed it.

First, it arrives quickly; second, it has a strong smell.

“Fox slut, smell, malice,” Da Bao said, meaning that the fox demon that chased after him this morning had malice.

As soon as he finished speaking, he saw moonlight shining on the window, and a graceful figure deftly opened the window.

The moment he jumped in, the other person's expression froze.

"Young master, I've come to repay a debt of gratitude, do you believe me?" The fox demon's fierce expression froze instantly.

The reason was simply that, besides Chu Danqing and Da Bao, the Pure Yang Demon-Suppressing Heavenly General and the Taiyin Dharma-Protecting Mysterious Maiden were also in the room.

“In principle, I believe it,” Chu Danqing said, “but now the principle is in my hands.”

Upon seeing this, the fox demon turned around without hesitation, jumped out of the window, and fled on a cloud of demonic energy.

But when I looked back, I was terrified.

Then they saw countless iron cavalry riding on thunderclouds emerge from Chu Danqing's small house and chase after her.

The sight of someone wielding lightning sent chills down the fox demon's spine. Who on earth was this master who possessed such abilities?

She came to find Chu Danqing not to repay a debt of gratitude, but because she vaguely sensed through her aura-gazing technique that Chu Danqing possessed the aura of an emperor, and knew from the dragon soul protecting him that he was of great status.

So I thought I'd come here to borrow some of my vital energy to cultivate myself.

As for what will happen to Chu Danqing after she loses her essence? That's none of her business; she's just planning to take it and run.

Da Bao was indeed a bit of a problem, but she was confident that her magic would work.

As a result, not only did neither of them fall, but they also caused even bigger trouble.

"Hey, stop chasing! This old lady is a disciple of the Ice Fairy of the Jade Plate Palace in the Immortal Realm. If you dare to hurt her, ouch!" Before the fox demon could finish speaking, she saw a group of iron cavalry drawing their bows and nocking arrows.

The bow was a thunder-patterned bow, and the arrow was a lightning arrow, which pierced her through on the spot.

Chu Danqing also heard this and was speechless.

"These demons and monsters are truly audacious, daring to spout nonsense and cover up their lies." Chu Danqing was certain that the fox demon was lying.

Anyone who believes that is a fool.

Even if the other party really was a disciple of an immortal, Chu Danqing would still kill him without hesitation.

If any immortal dares to come to him demanding an explanation, Chu Danqing will kill the immortal as well.

The master who could teach such a wicked demon to wreak havoc on the world must be no good either.

"What a pity about the fox fur and the treasure chest." Chu Danqing sighed. The fox demon was too weak and didn't drop the treasure chest.
