Chapter 1332  Crystal Palace

Chapter 1332 Crystal Palace

Three days later, Xiao Mian and Gui Hai boarded the huge ship.

Originally, they could not pass the inspection smoothly with their unknown identities.

Thanks to the mediation of the fourth-level carp spirit, the two were able to board the ship as tourists.

Of course, Xiao Mian did not treat the little demon badly.

After all, after arriving at Lingyangze, there were still many places where he would be needed.

The ship left Liuyun Island and headed east, speeding on the sea.

To be honest, this ship is also special.

The whole ship is huge, but it is made of the skeleton of an unknown giant fish. Although it cannot fly, it can travel thousands of miles a day on the sea.

Besides, Lingyangze is tens of thousands of miles away from Liuyun Island. If the ship is running at full power, the speed is very fast. However, the ship goes out to sea to do business on islands such as Liuyun Island. Along the way, it is inevitable to stop and go, fast and slow.

Therefore, it took more than a month for the ship to reach the Lingyang Lake.

Gradually, the ship slowed down...

According to the little demon's explanation, Lingyang Lake was not far away.

Gradually, more and more large and small reefs appeared on the originally vast sea surface - some protruded from the sea surface, and more were hidden under the sea surface.

In the end, bigger and bigger rocks rose and fell.

Looking ahead, the sea surface in front seemed to be smashed by boulders...

Here is Lingyang Lake!

Lingyang Lake is thousands of miles in radius, with rocks in the sea and sea in the rocks.

The deepest part of Lingyang Lake is the palace of King Ran Yi.

The ship did not go too deep into Lingyang Lake. After traveling more than a thousand miles, it stopped. After filling the cargo, the ship had to continue sailing.

Under the control of the Wuxiang Heart Demon, the little demon got off the ship with Xiao Mian.

After that, the demon and the two changed to a smaller sea boat and rushed towards the central area of ​​Lingyang Lake.

At dusk that night, they set foot on a piece of land in the center of Lingyangze.

This piece of land alone is a thousand miles in radius, and can be called a continent in the sea.

With the little demon as a guide, the two easily found a place to stay.

Xiao Mian's mind moved, and the little demon told everything it knew.

In the matter of selling human flesh, the little demon is just the lowest-end salesperson.

Above the little demon, there are many middle-level demons and even big demons who participate in and manipulate the entire human flesh production line. The biggest black hand behind the scenes is probably King Ran Yi!

Although the little demon knows everything, it also knows a limited amount.

The only valuable clue is that the little demon's superior is a fish demon at the peak of the sixth level. He has some connections in Lingyangze, so he can participate in it.

With a thought, the little demon narrowed his eyes and fell asleep.

Xiao Mian and Gui Hai discussed and decided to meet the sixth-level fish demon the next day.

The next morning, after sending away the confused little demon, the two walked out of their residence and bathed in the bright sunshine of Lingyangze.

If Liuyun Island is still a place where humans and demons live together, and some architectural styles are still unique to humans, Lingyangze is already a world of demons.

Looking around, there are all kinds of strange shapes that humans cannot understand.

The most common ones are huge towering stone pillars.

The two did not care and followed the clues provided by the little demon.

Not long after, they came to a cliff that looked like a cliff.

This was another giant stone pillar. Flying in the air, the two climbed up the stone pillar and saw that the whole stone pillar was a thousand feet high and about a mile in radius.

The entire surface of the stone pillar was covered with a mysterious liquid.

Under the sunlight, the light blue liquid exuded a sparkling brilliance.

It was like a water-colored mushroom crown growing on the stone pillar, trembling constantly.

Through the water, a crystal palace stood in the center of the stone pillar.

In front of the crystal palace stood a pair of shrimp soldiers and crab generals, both of whom were fourth-level monsters.

Without Xiao Mian's signal, Gui Hai, who was standing beside him, just slightly leaked his own black pan monster aura, and the shrimp soldiers and crab generals suddenly woke up and looked at the two suspiciously.

"The distinguished guests are here, why don't you let Ran Qing come out to greet them!"

Ran Qing!

This was the clue Xiao Mian got from the little demon.

Besides, the shrimp soldiers and crab generals were recruited to guard the house, so they had some vision. Seeing that the two people were extraordinary and called "Ran Qing", how could they dare to act rashly?

Leaving the crab general to continue guarding the door, the shrimp soldiers rushed into the crystal palace.

But a moment later, a group of figures flew out of the crystal palace.

"Which Taoist friend is here to visit? Please forgive Ran Qing for not being able to greet you from afar!"

While speaking, the figure had already rushed out of the Crystal Palace, but did not break the barrier.

Under the reflection of the water, it was clearly an overly large - fathead fish!

At the same time, Xiao Mian was also observing Ran Qing.

According to the information from the little demon before, Ran Qing was a sixth-level fathead fish demon. Now comparing the two, Xiao Mian's suspicions were confirmed.

As early as when Xiao Mian heard about Ran Qing's background, he secretly kept a watchful eye.

Without saying a word, Xiao Mian took out something and shone it in the air.

Under the sunlight, a ball of colorful light shone from Xiao Mian's palm.

Ran Qing was stunned when he saw it, as if thinking about something.

At this time, Xiao Mian spoke.

"Do you know Ran Jiu?"

"Ran Jiu!?" Ran Qing's eyes trembled as he stared at the colorful rainbow, and he turned to stare at Xiao Mian and said firmly: "Sir! Please come in!"

While speaking, the fat-headed fish monster spewed out a water-colored gem from its huge mouth, and the gem was full of water light, breaking the water-colored barrier protecting the Crystal Palace.

Xiao Mian saw it, but he didn't care. He took Gui Hai and entered the Crystal Palace.

In the Crystal Palace, Ran Qing entertained the two absent-mindedly.

After hesitating for a long time, Ran Qing finally couldn't bear it anymore.

"To be honest with you, fellow Taoist! Ran Jiu is my brother! But as far as I know, my brother Yu left the East China Sea a long time ago and disappeared. How did you see him?"

"It's a long story..."

Since the bait was thrown out, Xiao Mian was not afraid that Ran Qing would not take the bait.

At that moment, Xiao Mian told the story and briefly recounted what happened that year.

More than ten years ago, by the Huangtian River.

Xiao Mian saw the dying Ran Jiu, and because they were from the same lineage of East China Sea monsters, Xiao Mian agreed to help Ran Jiu bring something back to Lingyangze in the East China Sea.

That thing was the piece of colorful scale armor that Xiao Mian got from Ran Jiu that day!

While speaking, Xiao Mian handed the piece of colorful scale armor to Ran Jiu.

"Daoyou! I have completed the task you entrusted me with, and I will take my leave now!"

"This... Daoyou has been very kind to my brother, and you have returned this item to me. You should at least stay in my Crystal Palace for a few more days, so that I can show my appreciation!"

"No need! The reason why we brothers borrowed the Lingyangze is to fulfill the trust you entrusted us with. Now that the item has been returned to its original owner, we will leave Lingyangze!"

"Wait a minute!" Ran Qing stood in front of Xiao Mian, his eyes rolling around, and he said anxiously: "You two are so kind, Ran Qing is grateful! How about this! Let me stay for one night, and I will prepare some pearls and coins to show my gratitude. I hope you two Daoyou will not refuse!"

"This..., OK! My two brothers will stay in your house for one night!"

After a little hesitation, Xiao Mian accepted Ran Qing's invitation.

After instructing the palace maid to send the two to the wing room, Ran Qing held the colorful scale armor in his hand, his expression uncertain.

As Ran Jue's brother, although Ran Xing didn't know what treasure was stored in the colorful scales, he knew the origin of the colorful scales.

This item was a treasure given by King Ran Yi himself.

The purpose was to let Ran Jue take it to Zhongzhou and trade with human cultivators.

Unexpectedly, after a round, Ran Jue died in Zhongzhou, and the treasure fell into his hands.

Now Ran Xing is thinking about how to embezzle this treasure.

However, due to the limitations of his own cultivation, Ran Xing has not even condensed his spiritual consciousness, so it is naturally impossible to open the colorful scales.

For now, there are two ways in front of Ran Xing:

First, wait for himself to condense his spiritual consciousness or even condense a demon baby, and then open the scales.

Second, find a helper that he can absolutely trust to help him open the scales.

The way is certainly more secure.

But one's own family knows one's own business. Ran Xing's aptitude is even worse than Ran Jue's. He has been trapped at the level of a sixth-level monster until now and cannot break through at all.

I am afraid that Ran Xing will not be able to make further progress in his lifetime.

Thinking deeply, maybe there is a treasure in the seven-color scale armor that can help him break through smoothly?

As for the second path, Ran Xing is not without a suitable candidate.

That is his superior - one of the eight demon generals under the throne of King Ran Yi, a seventh-level transformed demon who has survived the transformation tribulation - Ran Min!

Ran Min, who has divine consciousness and a demon baby, must be able to open the seven-color scale armor. He and Ran Xing are also close on weekdays, and more importantly, the two sides have business dealings.

Some of Ran Min's handles fell into Ran Xing's hands.

Besides, the two people who presented the seven-color scale armor were not something Ran Xing could deal with!

Ran Xing, who thought he could restrain Ran Min, decisively extended an olive branch to Ran Min after confirming that he could not swallow the seven-colored scale armor by himself.

That night, Ran Min came to Ran Xing's crystal palace alone.

The two monsters often get together on weekdays, enjoying the pleasures of life.

But this time, Ran Xing did not entertain Ran Min warmly.

On the table between the two, the seven-colored scale armor was placed alone!

As one of the eight monster generals directly under the throne of King Ran Yi, Ran Min naturally knew a lot about this piece of seven-colored scale armor. Some of the materials were handled by Ran Min himself. Therefore, when he saw this piece of seven-colored scale armor, Ran Min could not help but look excited.

"How could this thing be here? Could it be that Brother Ran Jiu is back?"

"My poor brother, I'm afraid he will never come back!"

At that moment, Ran Xing told Xiao Mian all the words that had fooled him before.

After hearing what Ran Xing said, Ran Min frowned and fell silent.

"Brother Ran Xing! We are also friends who have risked our lives for each other! This item is of great importance. What do you mean by calling me here tonight?"

"Ran Xing dares me to call you brother! How valuable is this item? You should know it better than me, right? Who in the whole Lingyang Lake would have thought that it would be lost and found again?"

"The two people who returned this item to you..."

"They are in my crystal palace!"

"..., how strong are they?"

"From what I can see, one of them seems to have condensed his consciousness, but he has definitely not survived the transformation tribulation. As for the other person, he hasn't even condensed his consciousness!"

"..."

"Brother! As long as these two people are left here, who knows what will happen tonight?" Seeing that Ran Min was deep in thought, Ran Qing repeatedly said: "Brother, you can open these seven-color scales at that time. Divide the accounts, you and I, and I guarantee that no one knows about the gods or ghosts!”

"……,good!"

"Brother, I will lure those two people here right now, and we two brothers will act according to the opportunity!"

Thinking that he had laid a trap, Ran Qing sent someone to invite Xiao Mian and others.

Besides, Xiao Mian had already planned out Ran Qing's countermeasures for him before entering the Crystal Palace. Xiao Mian knew exactly how Ran Qing would respond.

If Ran Qing allowed the two of them to leave, Xiao Mian would have to go through a lot of trouble.

Now they are forced to stay for one night. If they don't do anything tonight, when will they stay?

Soon after, Xiao Mian and Gui Hai met Ran Qing and Ran Min.

Ran Qing just paid it back. After all, Ran Min was a seventh-level demon who had already transformed.

With a slight expansion of his consciousness, Ran Min discovered that the cultivation levels of Xiao Mian and the two were indeed as Ran Qing said, one was at the peak of the sixth level, and the other was only at the sixth level.

As a result, Ran Min felt confident and even made other plans...

The ferocious light in his eyes soared, and Ran Min was no longer in the mood to act for fun!

But it was Ran Qing who had an extra eye.

"Two fellow Taoists! This is one of the eight demon generals directly under my throne, Ran Yi, Senior Ran Min! Senior Ran Min is here tonight to teach me how to cultivate. Do you two fellow Taoists want to watch? Maybe, There will be some unexpected gains! To be honest with you two fellow Taoists! I, Ran Qing, have managed to save three things in my life, and this Crystal Palace is one of them, and the second one is what I am proud of - —Zilao Dojo!”

After saying this, Ran Qing almost pulled the two of them to a huge snail shell.

After entering the so-called Zhiluo Taoist Temple, Ran Qing was determined.

"I'm not afraid to tell the truth to my two Taoist friends. This Zhiluo Dojo is the ultimate competition arena in the realm of Yuanying. Even if the ancestor of Yuanying is trapped in it, he won't be able to get out without Ran Qing's natal talisman. , fighting in it, it is impossible for outsiders to detect it!”

Ran Qing's words seemed to be meant for Xiao Mian and the other two, but in fact they were also meant for Ran Min - that means: Ran Min, you'd better not kill me, the master, by mistake!

Xiao Mian and the two were fine, but Ran Min got angry for no reason and showed her fierce look.

"Hmph! Why are you talking so much nonsense? You two deserve to die today!"

After saying this, Ran Min targeted Gui Hai, who in his eyes had a higher level of cultivation, and attacked.

Ran Min's true form is a sixth-level fire koi.

The Fire Koi is a very weird fish monster.

Most ordinary water monsters are born with water attributes. Occasionally they mutate into wind or ice attributes, but water monsters with earth and fire attributes are rarely born.

This fire koi, just by its name, is a fire attribute water demon.

Thanks to Ran Min's chance, he actually got a large amount of the inverse Five Elements spiritual material - Water in Fire - Extreme Flame Stream!

Relying on the heaven-defying effect of the Extreme Flame Stream, Ran Min was able to practice both water and fire.

Precisely because of this, Ran Min actually broke through the sixth-level destiny of the Fiery Koi, successfully survived the catastrophe of transformation, and became a seventh-level transformed demon.

Now when he took action, in order to achieve a quick victory, Ran Min used his natal demon soldiers.
