Daily Intelligence: From Water Snake to Jinghe Dragon King

Chapter 126: Gaining the power of the Jing River and seizing the underwater dragon palace

Since Liu Qing participated in the Qingming River Festival on the Jing River, he had always been in the water, so his true form was most convenient. Therefore, he rarely transformed into a human form.

Firstly, it avoids wasting demonic energy and always maintains full strength to deal with danger. Secondly, it is extremely inconvenient for a human body to be in water.

But at this moment, in order to refine the core jade button of the Jinghe Dragon Palace's spiritual treasure, he had to show his hands.

He held it in his hand and spewed out streams of demonic energy from his mouth, refining it roughly first.

Although he could feel his soul getting stronger every moment after taking the Yin Lingzhi, he still had not yet transformed into a Yin God.

Therefore, Liu Qing could only use demonic energy to first carve the imprint of his own demonic energy on the jade button, thus breeding the Yin God, and then refine all the spiritual treasures and magic tools in his hands again.

Not long after, Liu Qing had roughly refined the core jade button of the Jinghe Dragon Palace's spiritual treasure.

The dragon-shaped grip on the upper part of the jade button originally emerged as a horned boa constrictor during the initial refining process, which was the manifestation of Liu Qing's true form.

Liu Qing stretched out his hand and the jade button flew into his hand, spinning rapidly. Just as Liu Qing was about to use the jade button to shrink the huge Dragon Palace outside,

Suddenly, a few small snakes flew out from the jade button. There were three of them. They did not have the fresh breath of living creatures, but instead carried an extremely rich spiritual vapor.
Moreover, these three little snakes are incomplete, some are missing tails, some are broken off from the waist and abdomen, and some are completely headless.

Liu Qing's heart moved. Could it be that this was the fragment of the power water vein mentioned in the intelligence box?

[Explanation: This fragment of the Power Water Vein originated from the waters of the Jing River. After thousands of years of evolution, it became a spiritual object. Unfortunately, it was implicated by the Old Dragon King of the Jing River and was shattered by a wisp of energy released by the Dragon Slaying Sword, thus its form is incomplete.]

The timely explanation from the intelligence box confirmed the speculation.

Hong Gu's experience far surpassed Liu Qing's. Seeing Liu Qing stunned and confused, she hurriedly reminded him, "Xiao Qing, quickly swallow these water vein fragments!"

Hong Gu has become a power god, and her cultivation level is equivalent to that of a beginner human immortal. If she wants to continue to break through to the next level of earthly immortal, these power water veins are necessary.
How could Liu Qing ignore Hong Gu and take the three water vein fragments for himself? Liu Qing was about to wave his hand to give the three water vein fragments to Hong Gu,

But unexpectedly, she was one step too late, and the same thing happened to Hong Gu.

Hong Gu's Taoism was far superior to Liu Qing's. She opened her mouth and spurted out a stream of power, instantly injecting the three water vein fragments into Liu Qing's body.

Now Liu Qing knows that this authority and divine power is actually immortal power, or as it was called in ancient times, "magic power". It is terrifyingly powerful, several times more powerful than demonic energy. Because of its authority, its color has obscured its original red, yellow, green, blue, purple, and green inherent attribute colors that originally represented the five elements of wind and thunder and other magic powers, and has all become the golden color of authority and divine power.

The great-completion-level elephant-swallowing talent took effect quickly, and in just a breath, it absorbed all three fragments of the power water veins.

[Divinity: Authority 35%]

The three fragments of the power water veins increased Liu Qing's power divinity by a total of 15%, which was almost equal to the power of the water veins of Snake Pond and Xiaolugou.

Liu Qing was both happy about the increase in his authority and divinity, but he also glared at Hong Gu with some resentment.

This elder sister has taken good care of me since I was little, and even now, she is still used to giving me good things.
She is so affectionate, I dare not let her down.

"They are just a few water vein fragments. Xiaoqing, please accept them first. Don't worry about me. If I have good luck in the future and am about to break through to the Earthly Immortal realm, I will naturally have the authority."

Hong Gu blinked, half playful and half proud: "Have you forgotten your sister's background? This old man has a lot of good things in his hands. How could he lack the authority of your breakthrough?"

Liu Qing froze, too depressed to speak.

Sister, is it really okay for you to show off your wealth in front of a poor guy like this?

"Besides, these three are in line with your attributes. Xiaoqing, you are a river demon in the water, and your demonic aura belongs to the water element. In the future, when you gain the authority of the Dao, you will also become a river god of the water element. Therefore, you should accept these water-related powers."

Hong Gu only asked Liu Qing to accept it temporarily, meaning that she would wait until Liu Qing completed the Refining Void and Combining Dao, and then take out the authority to become a god. However, she did not know that Liu Qing had a cheat, so he could absorb and refine it right now, without having to wait until the authority and combining Dao reached a breakthrough.
Liu Qing had no choice but to passively accept it, secretly remembering Hong Gu's kindness and waiting to repay her one by one in the future. The power of divinity increased by 15%. Therefore, under Liu Qing's fontanelle, deep in the hidden place, a shimmering mist filled the air. Its breathing was quite rhythmic, like the placenta, nurturing new power and divine ability.
Just wait until the time is ripe and it will appear.

After being reminded by Hong Gu, Liu Qing no longer swallowed the core jade button of the Jinghe Dragon Palace into his mouth, but instead urged the demonic energy to be poured into it.
In an instant, the world seemed to shake violently. Not only the treasure house where Liu Qing was, but also the huge dragon palace outside was shaking.

If you stand on the clouds and look down through the deep water of the Jing River, this huge Jing River Dragon Palace looks like it is being held in someone's hands and washed in the water.

It was indeed being washed. Liu Qing manipulated the jade button, shook the Dragon Palace, and washed it with the water from the Jing River like washing dishes, washing away all the silt and dirt that had accumulated in the palace for hundreds of years.

This mid-grade acquired spiritual treasure Dragon Palace, which can be shrunk or enlarged and can be carried around, is the future wedding room of Liu Qing and Hong Gu, so it must be cleaned thoroughly.

As the Dragon Palace shook more and more violently, the eel master, the little crocodile dragon and other big bay lake monsters who were waiting outside the Dragon King Palace,
Liu Qing intentionally threw them out of the Dragon Palace. Only the river monsters from other forces had already escaped from the Dragon King's Palace and rushed out of the Jinghe Dragon Palace like crazy, not even caring about the task of grabbing incense for their own masters.
Stealing incense is not as important as one's own life. The terrifying aura of the Old Jinghe Dragon King made them think they were going to be crushed into powder.

Except for the eels in Dayawan Lake Water Mansion, they were worried about Liu Qing and were reluctant to leave. Liu Qing saw this friendship and kept it in his heart.

Only then did they take advantage of the opportunity to clean the Dragon Palace and get rid of the eel and other monsters from the Dayawan Lake and the river.

The entire Jing River was like an underwater volcano erupting. The river water surged violently, creating huge waves. The silt that had been deposited for hundreds of years was washed away and merged into the Jing River water, turning the river water into a black and turbid color.
People say that the water of the Wei River and the Yellow River are muddy, but the water of the Jing River at this moment is as muddy as either of them.

The water god Qu Yuan stopped napping and suddenly stood up, his eyes shining with divine light. There was a faint sound of fireworks and prayers as he looked down at the muddy river.
The other river monster masters and the surviving river monsters were also shocked by this scene.
The Jinghe Dragon Palace is a mid-grade acquired spiritual treasure. Although it was implicated by the old Dragon King of Jinghe a hundred years ago and was damaged by a trace of energy leaked from the Dragon Slaying Sword, its spiritual charm has weakened a lot.

But after being refined by Liu Qing, it had a master again, and the remaining spiritual charm of the spiritual treasure was not something that Qu Yuan, the spiritual official of the water, or the river monster with shallow Taoism could spy on.

Their gazes were all repelled by the precious light and spiritual charm of the Jinghe Dragon Palace.

The water official Qu Yuan was surprised and said nothing, frowning. He had thought that he would be invited to preside over the river sacrifice and take the Lingbao Dragon Palace as a reward for his hard work, but he did not expect that the outcome would be beyond his control.
It seemed that under the turbid river water, the Lingbao Dragon Palace flew away from his hands.

Qu Yuan, the water god, snorted coldly, and immediately his whole body burst out with powerful divine power from incense, splitting the turbid river water and walking into the water step by step.

The Water God, just looking at this divine position, you can tell that he can flow through all the waters. Although the Jing River is big, it is also among all the waters. Now that there is no Dragon King, who can resist Qu Yuan?
The Chu State official Qu Yuan, who had benefited from thousands of years of incense and vows, possessed immense divine power. Although he was a ghost immortal, with the blessing of the incense and priesthood, he was no weaker than an ordinary sixth or seventh rank god.

Hong Gu's power is in harmony with the Tao. She comes from the East China Sea. Her bloodline can be traced back to the ancient dragon of the prehistoric times. She was born as a seventh-grade god, so she is naturally not an ordinary person.
When Qu Yuan, the water spirit officer, went underwater, he saw in front of him a gigantic dragon fish several feet long, with a jade sceptre on its head and the Jinghe Dragon Palace, which had been shrunk countless times, on its back. It looked at him coldly.

Qu Yuan secretly thought that something was wrong. The Lingbao Dragon Palace he had been planning for so long was actually taken away by someone else.

If it is other incense gods, with the name of Qu Yuan, as long as you say you want it, the other party will be willing to offer it.

But the dragon fish in front of him, whose jade tablet showed her as 'Goddess of Jing River who follows the world and responds to wishes', was not only of noble birth, but also a seventh-rank powerful deity. She was not someone he could control.
Qu Yuan's water god Fenggao was a fifth-rank incense god, but he had no advantage against the seventh-rank authority god.
All dragons in the world come to pay homage to the East China Sea. No matter if they are mixed-blood dragons evolved from snakes and pythons, or dragon-like beasts with unique characteristics, they all have the support of the East China Sea and even the four seas.

If this background is added, Qu Yuan, the fifth-rank incense god and the water god, would be overshadowed by Hong Gu.

Seeing that things were hopeless, Qu Yuan, the water spirit official, had no choice but to give up. He curled the corners of his mouth as a greeting to the divine world, then flicked his wide sleeves and left the water with a stern face.

The gods are not about fighting and killing, but about human relationships. The water god can hate the river monsters in Qin, but he cannot ignore the authority of the gods in Qin.
This is because river monsters are nothing more than livestock in the eyes of the gods, and those with high spiritual power are just bigger wild monsters.

But the God of Power is different. He is an immortal who lives forever. In his eyes, I, the seemingly glorious God of Incense, am just a ghost immortal.

Since the other party took it away first, it was fate. Why should I go against fate and snatch it away by force? The key is that if a fight really breaks out, I may not be the opponent of the dragon fish.

After the water official Qu Yuan left, Liu Qing meandered out of the Lingbao Dragon Palace. Using the strength of Hong Gu's identity, he forced Qu Yuan to retreat and seized the Dragon Palace without leaving any hidden dangers. Liu Qing started planning this after refining the jade button.

It now seems that the plan was implemented smoothly, and the Lingbao Dragon Palace was finally taken away from Qu Yuan as desired.

The Water Spirit Officer Qu Yuan presided over the river sacrifice and summoned the Jinghe Dragon Palace, which had been silent for a hundred years. From that moment on, Liu Qing guessed that the old man had set his sights on the Jinghe Dragon Palace.
As a last resort, he cooperated with Hong Gu and forced Qu Yuan, the old prostitute, to leave.
