"What's the purpose of that lace of yours?"
inside the house.
Seeing Chenghuo staring blankly at the lace in his hand, Zhong Ran couldn't help but ask.
"If you have anything to ask, let's wait until we get out." Chengshuo did not respond directly to Zhong Ran. After all, there were other people here.
He emphasized: "All in all, what the fishman elder spit out is indeed a treasure, at least the tie I just wore."
"Then I'll give it a try too." Zhong Ran was delighted when he heard this. He quickly took out a flying sword from the storage bag on his waist and handed it to the fishman elder.
She hesitated for a moment and then said: "I want to change it. Well, I also want to change it to a life-saving magic weapon."
'Aww'!
As soon as he finished speaking, the fishman elder directly took the flying sword in Zhong Ran's hand and rolled it into his mouth with his tongue without saying a word.
The mouth of the fishman elder seems to have a function similar to a storage bag.
Although he swallowed the flying sword, the flying sword failed to hurt him at all, as if the flying sword had been transferred to a different space by him.
Not long after this, the fishman elder suddenly retched for no reason and spit out a hat from his mouth.
This hat is made of fabric and has an ugly shape.
Zhong Ran picked up the hat with a look of disgust.
Seeing his behavior, Chenghuo hurriedly asked: "How is it? Is this hat a treasure?"
"It is indeed a treasure, and it is a life-saving magic weapon."
Zhong Ran replied: "It's just that the defensive power of this treasure is not very strong, and it can probably withstand the attack of monks in the embryo-building stage."
The flying sword Zhong Ran just gave was a magic weapon at the early stage of embryo-building, so the hat he exchanged was also at the embryo-building level.
The tire-building level defensive magic weapon can only block the attack of the tire-building level monks.
From this point of view, the transaction of the fishman elders indeed follows the principle of 'equivalent transaction'.
In this case, Chengshuo put his hand on his chest.
Inlaid on his chest is the 'space gem' obtained from Liang Guo's secret treasury.
The moment his fingers touched the gem, he saw a jade slip appearing out of thin air in Cheng Huo's hand.
The surviving jade slip said to the fishman elder: "This time I am exchanging life-saving treasures, and I will use this jade slip in my hand to exchange."
Survive by your side.
After hearing what he said, the fish-man Huabei opened his mouth to remind: "Fellow Taoist, may I ask if the jade slip in your hand records a certain skill?"
"Yes, what's wrong?" Chengshuo responded.
The fish-man Huabei said: "If it is a skill, the great elder will not only take away the jade slip in your hand at the moment of your exchange."
"This also includes all the memories of this technique in your mind, as well as everything you get from practicing this technique."
"These great elders will also take them all away. In short, you will completely lose this skill."
"So fellow Taoists should think twice before exchanging exercises!"
"Thanks for the reminder." Chenghuo said politely, "However, I don't really want to practice this technique, so it doesn't matter even if it is taken away."
The survival office took out the jade slips, which recorded the "Fungal Parasite Method" obtained from the Daliang State Secret Treasury.
To practice this method, a mutated mushroom needs to be parasitized in the body, which sounds somewhat weird.
Therefore, even if you don’t practice this method, you won’t feel a pity if you survive.
inside the house.
Chengshuo shook the jade slip in his hand and signaled the fishman elder to take it away.
The latter did not make any ink marks, and decisively rolled the jade slip into his mouth with his tongue. After a moment, another sticky liquid came out of his mouth.
"Ah this."
Looking at the large sticky object in Cheng Huo's hand, Zhong Ran said with a strange expression: "Is this thing considered a treasure?"
"You can really count!"
Most of the treasures are psychic.
The moment he came into contact with the mucus, he already understood the specific purpose of this mucus:
The mucus spit out by the fishman elders is called 'boiling carbon bacteria'.
The user can activate it with energy of any nature.
The activated 'boiling carbon bacteria' can quickly devour the user's body and boil it to a gaseous state, while retaining the user's consciousness.
With his body transformed into a gaseous state, he can easily avoid most attacks.
And when the user withdraws the injected energy, the 'boiling carbon bacteria' will quickly sublimate the user, changing from gaseous state to solid state.
In this way, the user can regain his human form.
'Boiling Carbon Bacteria' are consumables.
If calculated based on human body size, the 'boiling carbon bacteria' in the living hand can be used about three times.
Considering that besides Zhong Ran, there were several other fishmen in this room, Cheng Sheng did not directly explain the purpose of this treasure.
Zhong Ran also followed suit.
After exchanging the second treasure with the fishman elder, she also kept silent about the purpose of the treasure.
Afterwards, in order to find out the secret of the fish people's immortality, Cheng Sheo and Zhong Ran simply stayed in the fish people village, planning to observe it for a few days first.
…
at the same time.
In the secret area of Tianshan Mountain, there is another fish-man village that is exactly the same.
Under the leadership of a strange fishman, Lei Lei cautiously arrived at the entrance of the fishman village.
In the village, there was a male monk wearing a Yin Yang Tai Chi fish robe and a short but cute female monk, who quickly attracted Lei Lei's attention.
"Lord Savior, what's wrong?" Seeing Lei Lei staring blankly at the monks in the village, the fishman asked in concern.
"nothing."
Lei Lei shook his head and said: "I just felt that the two monks just now looked very much like two friends I knew, but upon closer inspection they were not, so I must have made a mistake."
"Then you admitted your mistake." The fish man who led the way smiled and replied: "Didn't I just tell you that people coming to the secret realm of Tianshan Mountain are not only your monks from Daliang Kingdom, but people from other places also have the opportunity to come here. , so the possibility of you meeting your friend is actually not high."
"Is this so"
Thunder mused.
Looking at the man and woman who seemed to be Cheng Sheng and Zhong Ran, he turned around and said: "Didn't you just say that I was the prophesied savior who could save Xuanwu Star? What about the other monks in this village? ?They are also the chosen saviors?”
"No no no."
The fishman who led the way said without hesitation: "The other monks in the village are all destined to follow the Savior, that is, the followers who will follow you in the future."
"Let's go, let's not talk about this for now." The fishman who led the way urged: "In short, everything will wait until we meet the great prophet of the fishman village, Elder Catfish."
"Okay." Lei Lei responded, then followed the fishman leading the way towards the great elder's house.
…
At the same time.
Following a fishman who led the way, Ni Li and Po Yazhi also arrived at the entrance of the fishman village.
When seeing the fish people in the village, almost everyone exudes a powerful aura that is unique to monks in the deep dive stage from time to time.
For a moment, Boya Zhi's saliva was almost drooling.
——After experiencing the Floating Island Illusion Formation, Boya Zhi changed from being extremely obsessed with appearance and how to attract the opposite sex to being extremely obsessed with power.
Ni Li is also a monk obsessed with power and power.
So after feeling the powerful aura of the fish people, he felt inexplicably shocked.
At the entrance of the village.
Looking at the scattered monks in the fish-man village with obsessed faces, Ni Li frowned and said: "Are the monks in the village also coming to the village to practice in order to break through to the deep submergence stage? ?”
"That's right!" the murloc leader replied: "Those monks will deliberately imitate the words and deeds of the murlocs in the village when walking."
"If you deliberately imitate the fish people who have deep dive cultivation, you can understand the artistic conception of the deep dive period and break through the bottleneck."
"Is that so?" Ni Li's face was expressionless, and his happiness and anger could not be seen.
Obviously, he didn't 100% believe everything the fish man who led the way said.
The fishman who led the way continued: "There is no rush to realize the artistic conception of the deep dive period. In short, I will take you first to meet the catfish elder who created the 'fishman practice method'."
"As long as we can get the guidance of the fish-men elders. By then, let alone the deep dive period, it is not impossible to break through to a higher realm!"
…
time flies.
Just like Hua Bei said, if a monk stays in the fish-man village for a long time, his body will mutate into a fish-man.
At the same time, you gain an almost eternal lifespan.
After Chengsheng stayed in the fish-man village for three days, he could clearly feel that his lifespan was being 'frozen' bit by bit.
The perception of monks is very strong, and it can continue to increase as their cultivation level increases.
As a blood elixir stage monk, you can clearly feel the changes in your body:
Now, although he still retains self-awareness, can walk, talk, and move freely, he can also clearly feel that his body is no longer aging.
This discovery made Chenghuo secretly happy and gave him a bold idea:
If he just stayed in the Fishman Village and waited for three to five years, or even ten or twenty years before going out, would he be able to directly avoid the catastrophe in the west of Daliang?
With this idea in mind, Chengshuo stayed in the Fishman Village for nearly ten days.
During this period, he became more and more aware of the subtle influence that the Fishman Village had on him.
In addition to the slower and slower consumption of his lifespan, the skin on his body gradually grew scales, and his head became more and more like a fish.
But none of this matters.
After all, no one can refuse eternal life. What's more, there are murloc elders in the murloc village who can exchange for everything in the world.
It just looks a little weird, which is totally acceptable!
…
Fishman Village, the residence of Elder Catfish.
The fish-man Huabei knelt down in front of the huge fat catfish and said in a respectful tone: "The great elder really has a wonderful plan! The two monks named Chenghuo and Zhong Ran are really interested in 'eternal life'. I guess it won't be long before they will." Completely forget everything in reality, and then stay in our village forever!"
"snort,"
The fat catfish elder sneered.
At this moment, he no longer had the same stupid look as when he first met Cheng Sheng.
Elder Catfish said with a sly expression: "Both of those two have a bit of a paranoid personality."
"Just like the one named Cheng Huo, he originally just wanted to become stronger, live better, and live as long as possible."
"He almost never seeks trouble but unfortunately, because he lives in an area where there are pollution outbreaks, trouble often comes to him."
"Over time, he developed a character that was extremely afraid of death and would use extreme means to solve all the troubles around him."
"The so-called extreme means include but are not limited to: actively allowing oneself to be contaminated, or actively contacting more taboo forces, etc."
"And precisely because he is extremely afraid of death and doesn't mind using extreme means to solve troubles, he is absolutely willing to stay in the village in order to live forever and not die."
"Another example is the one named Zhong Ran."
"That little girl values family ties more."
Elder Catfish continued: "Her father was a monk and lived a wealthy life since he was a child, so he has always lived a carefree life with no desires or desires."
"But due to a sudden accident, her father consumed all his lifespan in just one night."
"Then she became obsessed with resurrecting her father."
"At the same time, because her father exhausted his entire life span in just one night, she also has an almost obsessive obsession with 'immortality'."
Elder Catfish said proudly: "So it is perfect to use 'eternal life' as bait to keep those two people!"
"The great elder is brilliant!" In the room, the fishman Huabei flattered him very wisely.
"By the way." Elder Catfish said again: "Speaking of which, how are the other three monks who entered the village now?"
"Everything is developing as the great elder expected."
Huabei replied: "The man named Lei Ting is indeed very vain and arrogant, so after learning that he was the destined savior, he willingly stayed in the village. Now, he is almost in reality. Everything has been forgotten."
"And Ni Li and Boya Zhijiu are just like what the elder has judged: those two have a strong desire to control, so they have an almost twisted pursuit of power and power."
"I tricked them into practicing the Great Elder's 'Murloc Cultivation Method', and now I have successfully kept those two people here."
"In short, if nothing else happens, the five monks who come to our village will be completely transformed into deep divers in a month at most."
"Okay!" Elder Catfish said in high spirits: "Praise Father God Dagon!"
"Praise Father God Dagon!" The fish-man Huabei also repeated.
"Praise Father God Dagon!" After hearing this, the fishman guards and maids on the side also shouted prayers from their mouths one after another.
As the prayers continued to sound, for a while, there was an indescribable and unexplained power in the fish-man hut.
…
The junction of Daliang Kingdom and the Far North.
The top of the snow mountain.
Yun Rusong and Li Zhuo were sitting cross-legged in the snow.
There is also a stone chessboard placed between the two. On the chessboard, the words black and white are entangled, and the fighting is fierce.
"Brother Li."
Yun Ru let go of a white piece and said, "Do you think it's too early to let the six of them enter the secret realm?"
"It's indeed a bit early." Li Zhuo followed up with a sunspot and said, "But isn't it something that can't be helped?"
"After all, it is impossible for monks in the Blood Pill stage to break through to the deep dive stage without taking the initiative to contact the deep divers."
"Now the great catastrophe in the west is approaching. For the sake of the people of Liang State, this is the only way we can do it now."
