"Senior Shenlong!" Qingshi said, "I still want to try and see if I can find a way to let Asu be free as well."
"Alas!" the old man said, "You are really persistent. Well, tell me your solution."
"Okay!" Qingshi said, "Actually, we were planning to rob tombs and obtain treasures at the beginning. However, when I saw the Feng Shui trend and architectural pattern of Dameng Island, and listened to Asu's words, I knew that, Senior should not be dead.
"If that's the case, then why does the senior do this? After thinking about it, I only thought of one possibility, that is, the senior must be at the end of his life and can only use a kind of hibernation technique similar to that of monsters and beasts to extend his life. I hope there will be a turning point. I don’t know if I’m right?”
"Yes!" said the old man, "it's easy to imagine."
"But I don't know if Senior is about to end his life naturally or is poisoned and injured?" Qingshi said, "What are you waiting for when you are dormant here? If Senior can tell me, I should try my best to do something for Senior, maybe you can It’s not necessarily a matter of helping.”
"This..." the old man thought for a moment and sighed, "Okay. Back then, I had a grudge against a big demon named Shancun, so we agreed to a life-and-death battle. Before the battle, I Everything you see now is arranged.
"The outcome of the decisive battle was no surprise to me. He died, and I was half-dead. I could only hibernate here, relying on the protection of the pre-set formation and Asu to survive.
"There is actually no point in living like this, but the reason why I do it is because I still have hope of recovering from my injuries and seeing the light of day again.
"I was waiting for a person. At that time, he went to a place and has been missing for a long time. However, I believe he will definitely come back to the desert. Once he comes back and knows about me, he will He will definitely come to save me. He is the only person in this world who can save me.
"It's been two thousand years and he hasn't come. If he still hasn't come in another thousand or two hundred years, then I will really be dead."
"I dare to ask senior," Qingshi said, "Are you poisoned or injured?"
"Both injured and poisoned!" the old man said, "Shancun is a transformed snake demon. Not only is his combat power incredible, but he is also extremely poisonous."
"Well, it seems that my guess is correct." Qingshi said, "Senior Shenlong, the main reason why I have the confidence to come in to see you is not the five immortal fruits, but because I have a way of healing wounds and detoxifying. Special ability, senior, if you believe in me, you might as well let me check on the poisonous injury, maybe I can help you cure it."
"You?" The old man stared at Qingshi with his eyes wide open like a monster, and suddenly burst out laughing, "Hahaha... You are such an interesting kid, you are always so different in what you say and do. , is it surprising? You don’t even know what injuries I suffered or what kind of poison I was poisoned with, yet you dare to boast so much? Okay, then tell me, what special abilities do you have? Haha... ..”
"I have all five elements of Qi." Qingshi said lightly.
"Haha... the five elements of true energy are all present... ah?" The old man was suddenly stunned, and after a while he tentatively said, "the five elements of true energy are complete? You mean you have metal and wood in your body?" What are the five attributes of water, fire and earth?"
"That's right," Qingshi said, "That's what I mean."
"Impossible!" the old man said subconsciously, "Ever since Ge Xiaotian committed evil, the laws of heaven and earth in this world are not perfect, and it is simply impossible for anyone with complete Qi to be born again."
"Otherwise, there are always exceptions in everything." Qingshi said, "Although Ge Xiaotian has covered the entire world with Yuanli coating, making the laws of heaven and earth imperfect in this world, the situation of foreign objects from the sky breaking through the coating is also happens sometimes.
"Actually, since Ge Xiaotian, the world has experienced several periods of rupture, and the rules of heaven and earth have been completed in a short period of time and on a small scale. Each period has produced some monks with complete Qi.
"Senior began to hibernate two thousand years ago. So, there were indeed no people with complete Qi in the two thousand years before that. However, less than five hundred years after senior hibernated, a group of at least twenty people appeared in this world. A great monk with full vitality.
"And now, some people with complete Qi have appeared in this world one after another, and this junior is one of them."
"You also know about Ge Xiaotian!" the old man exclaimed, "Is what you said true?"
"Of course it is true," Qingshi said, "Juniors dare not lie."
"Alas!" After a long time, the old man sighed, "I have been dormant for too long and have become ignorant. There are at least twenty great monks with complete Qi! My God! Hasn't this world changed a lot? I think , it must be a peaceful and prosperous age when immortality flourishes, right?"
"This world has indeed changed a lot," Qingshi said, "especially the Shenmu Continent and the adjacent Zhizhi Sea. However, these changes may not be as seniors thought..."
Next, Qingshi briefly told the Desert Dragon about the catastrophe of Shenmu Continent and the Great Sea. The old man was stunned when he heard this, and his jaw almost dropped in shock.
"Oh my god!" The Desert Divine Dragon murmured, "The sacred tree that protects the entire continent has turned out to be a disaster! There is not even a tenth life left in the entire continent! This... alas..."
Seeing that the Desert Dragon was very sad, Qingshi stopped talking and let him calm down.
"In this case," after a while, the Desert Dragon said again, "I'm afraid the person I'm waiting for may not be able to escape the catastrophe five hundred years ago. I'm afraid I won't be able to wait for him."
"Senior," Qingshi said, "Didn't I just say that? Maybe I can cure your injuries."
"Oh!" the old man said, "You mean to say that all the five elements' true energy can cure all poisonous injuries?"
"Yes!" Qingshi said, "Senior, you might as well let me try it."
The Desert Dragon naturally agreed, so Qingshi began to diagnose the old man.
"Senior Shenlong," Qingshi quickly got the diagnosis result and said, "I have good news and bad news, but I don't know which one would you like to hear first?"
"Oh?" The old man smiled slightly, "And there's good news? This is really an unexpected surprise. You'd better tell the bad news first."
"Senior's injury is too serious," Qingshi said with a frown, "Not to mention the severed meridians, even the divine essence in the body has been ruptured. I don't have the ability to repair the natal elixir. Let alone the elixir of divine origin, it is an elixir and a golden elixir. I can't repair it either. In addition, I could have reconnected and repaired the broken meridians of my predecessor. However, you have been injured for too long and these meridians have shrunk or even disappeared. There is nothing I can do about it. I am really sorry. "
"What's there to be sorry for?" the old man said, "I already knew this would be the result. Tell me the good news."
"The good news is," Qingshi said, "I can help you get rid of the toxins in your body, senior."
"Seriously?" The old man was surprised and delighted, "This is the poison of the snaking snake! Can you get rid of it?"
"Yes," Qingshi said with a smile, "for people who have all five elements of Qi, there is no poison in the world at all."
"Oh~" the old man said thoughtfully, "All poisons in the world cannot escape the scope of the five elements. Therefore, according to the principle that the five elements are mutually reinforcing and restraining each other, and the cycle continues, all poisons can be resolved, right?"
"That's right," Qingshi said with a smile, "Senior, it's obvious."
It only took Qingshi three hours to remove all the toxins from the desert dragon's body. Qingshi's current Qi cultivation level is extremely high, and he is no longer the little monk who exhausted himself to death just to dissolve some toxins for Ou Changzhi.
"Senior Shenlong," Qingshi said, "After the toxin is resolved, you shouldn't need to hibernate anymore, right?"
"No need!" The old man laughed, "Of course no need, hahaha... Without this damn toxin, I can use the secret method to repair the meridians. Even if they have shrunk and disappeared, I can regenerate them." Rebirth. It can be completed in twenty years at most. By then, I can return to my previous state, and my lifespan can be extended by another two thousand years. It will not be like sleeping and dormant for two thousand years like a living dead, but I will be as alive and kicking as before. Two thousand years, hahaha... Even if the person I'm waiting for comes here, I'm afraid he won't be able to do better hahaha..."
Qingshi waited for the old man to enjoy himself for a long time. Just now he said: "Senior Shenlong, if that's the case, does Asu only need to protect you for another twenty years?"
"Oh!" the old man said, "No need, I can give him freedom now. In my current state, I can already control this heaven-level formation. A character more powerful than Asu, whether human or demon , can't even enter my hut. Neither can you."
"Congratulations, senior!" Qingshi smiled, "Thank you also, senior."
"Hi!" Desert Dragon smiled, "I should be the one thanking you! Don't call me senior. If you think highly of me, then call me brother. My real name is Long Moyun, so just call me Brother Moyun!"
The Desert Dragon was overjoyed and took out all the treasures for Qingshi to choose. It didn't matter if he took them all. Qingshi is naturally not that greedy.
Bluestone finally took away more than a dozen metals and other minerals, which were taken from deep underground by the Desert Dragon and are extremely rare and priceless. With these things, Qingshi can forge and upgrade his Moon Soul Sword, Jiu Xuan, Xiu Feng, and Yue Ying again.
In addition, Qingshi also took some spiritual objects, such as a 'Mingyue Pearl' and more than a dozen Mingyue Celestial Pearls, which are treasures to enhance spiritual power; two demon pills that transformed into the great demon earth dragon, these It can greatly help Qingshi practice the 'Five Elements Body'.
Seeing that Qingshi only took these things, the Desert Dragon frowned and said, "Brother, why did you take so few things? No, no, I'll choose a few for you."
The Desert Dragon gave Qingshi two more things, a storage container containing one million top-grade spiritual stones and two hundred million high-grade spiritual stones. For the Desert Dragon, finding and digging out the spiritual stone veins was easy.
There is also a fist-sized, oblate black fruit. According to the Desert Dragon, this is the seed of the sacred tree. Playing with it often and touching it with spiritual power is very beneficial to understanding the 'Heavenly Way of Wood'.
"Brother Moyun," Qingshi said, "I have something to ask you. How big is this underground world? How many entrances and exits are there? I want to leave with my brothers, but I don't know if I should go back the way I came. What? Or take other channels?"
"Oh," said the Desert Dragon, "this underground world covers more than 20 million square miles, and most of it is ocean. I don't know exactly how many entrances and exits are connected to the outside world. Judging from the situation of the people who come here , I estimate there are at least three or more.
"This part of the desert I control should be the most remote. Judging from the location, it is at the southernmost point. If you want to go south or east, it is best to take the original road. If you want to go west or north, you can cross Find the exit after the sea.
"Let's go, take Asu and your brothers with you. I will completely seal off this big island for at least twenty years. Your brothers also need to swear not to reveal my secrets to the outside world. When I recover from my injuries After that, I will go up and take a look, we will probably meet again!"
Qingshi said goodbye to the Desert Dragon, walked out of the small stone house, and returned to the entrance of the formation in an instant.
Qingshi immediately returned to the psychedelic formation that trapped Asu and released Asu. He was about to tell Asu the good news of his freedom. Unexpectedly, when Asu saw him, he immediately rushed towards him with tears streaming down his face and gave him a big bear hug.
It turned out that Asu already knew that he was free, and the Desert Dragon had informed him in some unknown way, and had lifted the spell of the oath.
Qingshi took Asu back to the Immortal Residence, but saw everyone there. After asking, he found out that just now, all the people who were in the maze were ejected at once.
Qingshi discussed with everyone about leaving. Luo Luoshan and others couldn't help but feel a little regretful, but since the Desert Dragon had issued an order to expel guests, they had no choice but to leave. Qingshi asked them to make an eternal oath of heaven and promise never to reveal the secrets of the underground world and the desert dragon.
After they swore, Qingshi took out the high-grade spiritual stones presented by the Desert Dragon and gave each of Luo Luoshan and the other five people one million. They were so shocked that their eyes almost fell to the ground, and they were so happy that they couldn't close their mouths. You know, on the current Shenmu Continent, even a lord like Tu Ming's wealth is only worth 200,000 high-grade spiritual stones.
Qingshi decided to cross the sea to the northwest to find another exit, but Luo Luoshan and the other five were preparing to return to the desert wasteland. So they cherished each other and parted ways.
