Chapter 442 The Eighth Prince
"When Master Liu takes action, it will surely be a shocking scene. I'd better stand back." Master Qingshui praised Liu Haiyu while smiling and taking a few steps back. His follower "Blood Monk" was also quietly taken back into his sleeves.
"It looks like this frozen crystal should be a very special water-attributed spiritual material, similar to the blue crystal element that Xu Xiaoxian got before, but the grade is far less rare and precious than the blue crystal element. However, such a large piece is really rare." Ah Zhu blinked her big and moving eyes and said after careful observation.
"Miss Ah Zhu is right. If the frozen crystals in this lake can be successfully refined into an inch in size, it may be comparable to the blue crystal element that Brother Xu got, but this requires special conditions and opportunities. If you force it to be smelted with a formation, it will not only take a lot of time, but also require superb means. Even so, it may not be successfully smelted in the end. Every kind of top-grade genius treasure is caused by the way of heaven, and it can be encountered but not sought." Liu Haiyu explained.
"Of course, I, Xu Xiaoxian, have always had good luck, otherwise how could I meet a friend like Brother Liu who is both virtuous and academically excellent?" Xu Yang joked.
Liu Haiyu smiled indifferently, and then walked straight to the frozen crystal lake.
But he did not make a move immediately, but stood there quietly, pretending to meditate with his eyes closed, his blue clothes motionless, and the whole person was as quiet as still water.
In his purple mansion space.
The Yuanying, which was only an inch in size and had a golden colored glass appearance, sat cross-legged with his hands folded, his eyes also slightly closed, and under the Yuanying, petals of golden lotus patterns slowly spread out, as if accumulating powerful energy.
Suddenly, a thin blue line flashed between the Yuanying's eyebrows, which was the Yuanying's Dharma Eyes.
At the same time, between Liu Haiyu's eyebrows, a similar blue line appeared strangely, and there seemed to be a turbulent wave flowing in the blue line, emitting a gorgeous and crystal blue light.
The next moment, Liu Haiyu's eyes, which were originally slightly closed, suddenly opened, and the one in the middle of his forehead actually evolved into a blue third eye.
Immediately, a blue spiritual light shot out from the third eye, and the spiritual light spread out, like a large net covering the frozen crystal lake on the opposite side.
The originally transparent frozen crystal lake was reflected in a piece of azure blue, like a large piece of blue gem, dazzling.
Then, the large piece of azure blue actually slowly flowed, and the originally frozen lake surface was as blue as silk. After a while, the third eye on Liu Haiyu's forehead quietly retracted without leaving a trace.
The whole process was almost silent, and there was no earth-shaking spiritual power fluctuation. The huge frozen crystal lake on the opposite side turned into a pool of azure blue water.
The lake surface dropped a lot compared to the original.
At the far end of the lake, a passage more than one person high was revealed, and the silver-white light reflected from the opposite space was reflected in the passage, sprinkled on the water surface, like sparkling moonlight.
"We can go through. This frozen crystal will be like this for ten days. We have enough time to go back and forth without worrying about being trapped inside." Liu Haiyu explained.
"What kind of water attribute control ability is this? It can actually change the solid water attribute of the frozen crystal into the flowing water attribute." Qingshui Shangren, who was standing behind, widened his eyes and looked unbelievable.
Qingshui Shangren can also be called a Taoist water control master, especially good at the Taoist yellow paper spell technique. But compared with Liu Haiyu, the difference is like heaven and earth.
Usually, if you want to change the external appearance of an object, you will use the sudden increase or decrease in temperature to control it. For example, water cools down and freezes into ice, and ice heats up and melts into water. But if you want to change other things with higher density, it seems difficult. For example, to soften the originally hard pig iron, the foundry needs to use a refining furnace for a long time.
Another, and the most advanced method, is to use the power of the law to directly change the rules of the tiny particles that make up the object. Master Qingshui even suspected that what Liu Haiyu had just used was some kind of law power.
During Liu Haiyu's spell, Xu Yang used the Flame Spirit Magic Eyes to observe, with a ray of red fireworks jumping in each of his eyes, and all the subtle changes in front of him were in full view.
"If I were asked to break this frozen crystal lake, I would choose to use the power of the Flame Spirit to directly destroy the fusion characteristics between the ice crystals, which would not only require a lot of mana, but would also make a lot of noise. And just now, Liu Haiyu used his unique water control ability to accelerate the original fluidity of the frozen crystal, just like setting up tens of millions of extremely fine blue water arrays in it, and through this huge amount of array power, the original solid properties of the frozen crystal were changed to liquid properties like water. There was no temperature change, and the essence of the frozen crystal was not destroyed." Xu Yang seemed to see the clues of Liu Haiyu's spell, and he was amazed in his heart.
Ah Zhu clapped his hands and said, "The road has been found. It's really magical."
Gui Gu Chang Yang also nodded repeatedly and said, "What a powerful water talent."
"Qiao Er is probably on the other side. Wait for me. I'll save you." Thinking so in his heart, without the guidance of Master Qingshui, Liu Haiyu stepped on the blue waves and walked forward steadily as if walking on flat ground.
Xu Yang, Gui Gu Chang Yang and Ah Zhu each performed the light body technique and followed closely behind.
Master Qingshui also followed quietly, but deliberately lagged at the end of the team, looking around while walking.
"When they enter, I will fulfill the agreement with old man Boluo. There should be a powerful ancient formation and five princes from the East Sea Palace guarding it. Once you enter, there will be a fierce fight. This space is closed, and you can't hide when the time comes. It's better to find a way not to get involved."
Shangren Qingshui looked around and deliberately slowed down his pace, gradually moving away from Xu Yang and the others in front.
At this moment, Xu Yang, who was walking in front, suddenly turned around and looked back at Qingshui Renren behind him, and greeted him: "Master Qingshui, if you don't want to go in, just wait here. Help us keep an eye on the back road to avoid being attacked from the front and back by that guy Boluo."
"Okay, okay, that Boluo is cunning, I will help you watch here. As soon as Boluo comes, I will notify you." Master Qingshui said with a smile, and was secretly happy in his heart: "Stay here, it's just what I want."
Xu Yang had long seen that Master Qingshui could not assist his side wholeheartedly, and if he went forward, he would most likely conflict with the people of the Royal Family of Scaled Dragon who had entered before. Rather than letting Master Qingshui sit aside and reap the benefits, it would be better to leave him outside.
...
The Grand Palace of the East China Sea.
It is magnificent and embellished with precious beads, luxurious and solemn.
At this time, the throne in the Golden Palace of the Grand Palace was empty, without a figure.
A mysterious altar is hidden on a tall mountain more than a hundred miles south of the East Sea Grand Palace.
The ground of the altar square is a huge circle, paved with countless crystals of ordinary size cut into squares. It shows the gorgeous beauty.
And around the altar square, there are eight tall scale dragons carved from transparent crystals, whose shapes and sizes are exactly the same as those in the Eight-branched Scale Dragon Formation in the deepest part of the Sealing Abyss.
At this time, the great emperor wearing a golden five-clawed dragon robe and a dragon-shaped crown on his head, holding a child of about seven or eight years old in his right hand, stood in front of the altar.
The child has an ordinary appearance, wearing a simple green long gown with no scale dragon pattern on it, and looks like a child from an ordinary family. What is striking is that there is a small red bean-like dot on each side of the child's forehead, slightly protruding from the surface of the skin.
"Old Eight, since you were three years old, I sent you out of the East Sea Grand Palace and found an ordinary family outside to foster you secretly. Do you know why?" The great emperor looked at the child in front of him and said with eyes full of love.
"Didn't the father say that I was born with a weak constitution, so the royal horns on my head did not grow after I was born, and I was not suitable for living in the Grand Palace with too much jewelry?" The child, who was called Old Eight by the great emperor, answered with big eyes blinking.
"This is just a superficial reason. How is the scenery here?" The great emperor did not tell the eighth prince the real reason immediately, but asked.
"It's not very fun. However, I have a sense of familiarity when I see those crystal scales. Maybe it's because I am the child of the father." The eighth prince answered truthfully.
The great emperor looked at the eighth prince in front of him and nodded slightly: "Yes, he is worthy of being my son, and he is the only one who is born with a pair of royal horns like me."
The child looked up at the pair of royal horns on the old emperor's head, which were high and majestic, and his face was full of admiration.
"But I envy my seven brothers, all of whom have a royal horn. My horns are just two small beans, far less majestic than the single horn on my brothers' heads." The Eighth Prince said, while reluctantly touching the two small "red bean"-like royal horns on his head.
"Silly child, your brothers are not qualified to compare with you. You are the most authentic inheritance of my Scaled Dragon Royal Family. A single horn means mediocrity, and two horns mean the purest royal bloodline, but your horns still need an opportunity to grow out completely. Today, I brought you here to find this opportunity." The Great Emperor introduced kindly.
"Really? If my horns grow out, I can go back to the Grand Palace and meet my mother and father often. It's great." The Eighth Prince looked happy.
The Great Emperor looked up at the clear sky, stroked his beard with one hand, and said confidently: "It's coming soon, you just want us to wait here quietly."
...
Outside the island reef where Feng Mingyuan is.
General Bo Luo, wearing golden armor, led his expedition fleet to the shore outside the island reef. He stood on the bow of the leading ship, wearing golden armor that shone brightly.
"General, the five princes and several bandits including Xu Yang have entered Fengmingyuan." A soldier reported.
"Set up the attack formation and wait for my order." General Bo Luo gave an order, and thirty warships formed a formation, turned their cannons, and stared at the direction of Fengmingyuan with a covetous look.
