In the distance, there was a qin, ethereal and clear, its sound urging the rain from the heavens.
This dragon qi rain did not last long, dissipating gradually after about half an hour. The clouds cleared, and the sky became clear once again.
However, it had already attracted the attention of countless people on Shu Mountain.
The ordinary disciples on the mountain were a bit puzzled. They were told that this was dragon qi rain, and that they didn’t need to fear or avoid it. They believed it, and even had some anticipation. But… where was the rain?
It only fell around Silver Sword Peak, what did that mean?
If it was on another peak, there might be people who would go over to experience the nourishment of this golden rain and feel the dragon qi.
But this was Silver Sword Peak…
Thinking of the notorious Di Nvfeng who had harmed Shu Mountain, few disciples dared to approach. If they were caught and asked to pay for using the bath, it would be so embarrassing.
As for those of higher seniority, they held onto their status and didn’t want to join in the fun.
After all, this rain was random and couldn’t always fall on Silver Sword Peak. If it fell elsewhere next time, everyone could go and join in the fun.
As a result, the two younger generations of Silver Sword Peak ended up enjoying the first dragon qi rain.
As for Di Nvfeng?
Her Flame Phoenix Divine Art, whether from the flame attribute or the nature of the phoenix, had only disgust for this “rain” and “dragon qi”. She didn’t even have time to hide in the house.
With her physical body, she didn’t care about this trace of dragon qi nourishment.
Even if it was the true dragon that suppressed the luck, it wouldn’t necessarily win against her in a one-on-one fight.
Of course, if she won, she would also face the anger of the Sect Master and the four Elders of the Four Great Peaks.
Chu Liang had just been soaked in the rain and felt his physical body being nourished by the dragon qi, which indeed had a stimulating effect on his qi and blood. However, he had already increased his strength by ten times before, so in terms of pure strength, the gain was not significant.
But Liu Xiaoyu should have benefited a lot. She stood in the rain, and her whole body was already covered in scale-like colorful light, looking as if she could transform at any moment.
When the rain stopped and the sunlight fell, she reluctantly opened her eyes.
Chu Liang’s true qi evaporated, instantly drying his clothes. He muttered to himself, “It’s a pity that even if I store this water, the dragon qi inside will dissipate. Otherwise, I could use it as bathwater.”
If that were the case, I wonder if anyone would come to Silver Sword Peak to steal bathwater to drink.
“Oh? It’s blooming already.” Liu Xiaoyu suddenly exclaimed.
Chu Liang looked back at the Golden Patterned Flower field over there and saw that after being nourished by the seeds of the plants and trees that had just been sown, a small patch of Golden Patterned Flowers had indeed bloomed, and one of them had already produced a juicy and plump fruit.
And that fruit seemed different?
Chu Liang walked over and picked the newly formed fruit. He saw that the golden pattern on it had changed, from a straight line to a curved shape, vaguely resembling scales.
Could it be influenced by the dragon qi in the rain just now?
Since the human body can absorb dragon qi, and plants are also living beings, they might be able to absorb some as well.
Thinking this, Chu Liang took a bite of the fruit. Besides the same taste and spirituality, there was indeed a faint but not too strong dragon qi.
Now the value of this Golden Patterned Fruit is even higher, no, it should be called Dragon Breath Golden Patterned Fruit. Chu Liang finished eating it in three or two bites, silently calculating in his mind.
After finishing, he wiped his hands, turned around, and saw Liu Xiaoyu standing there, looking at him with big eyes full of resentment.
“What’s wrong?” Chu Liang asked.
Liu Xiaoyu’s face was full of grievances as she pouted, “Didn’t you say you would give me the second one to eat?”
…
While the rain on Silver Sword Peak attracted the attention of the entire Shu Mountain, in a remote corner, a figure in a white robe hid his figure and entered a cave on an uninhabited peak.
This person in the white robe concealed his figure, sitting cross-legged with his hands forming seals at the same time.
Whoosh—
An invisible figure shot out from his body and instantly arrived at an unknown place millions of miles away.
Immortal technique, traversing the heavens and earth.
It allowed the divine sense to instantly travel to any place between heaven and earth without moving the body, but it had to be a place the caster had been to before or had some kind of mark.
In an instant, the white-robed figure’s projection appeared in a dark room, where another figure was waiting.
This figure was hidden in the darkness without any light, making it impossible to see his face. Only his silhouette could be vaguely seen, indicating that he was a man.
“Shu Mountain has a dragon, a true dragon,” the white-robed person hurriedly spoke as soon as he arrived.
“We have already received the news,” the dark figure’s tone was low, seemingly displeased. “The dragons are being attracted from the nine heavens and ten earths. Why did the true dragon have to go to Shu Mountain, this declining place? It’s really unlucky…”
“The plan must be postponed,” the white-robed person said seriously. “The arrival of the true dragon indicates that Shu Mountain’s luck has not yet run out. If we launch an attack rashly, we will only fail.”
After a moment of silence.
The dark figure suddenly asked, “You won’t stay there for long, thinking of yourself as a member of Shu Mountain, right?”
“What are you talking about?” The white-robed person was slightly angry. “I’ve said so many times that I want to come back, but you all have been pushing… Now you suspect me?”
“Hehe, sorry.” The dark figure shook his head in apology, then said, “I’m just a little puzzled that with your blood feud with Shu Mountain, you’re not in a hurry to destroy it. That’s all.”
“The arrival of the true dragon represents the flourishing of Shu Mountain’s luck!” the white-robed person said.
“I know, but luck is not a divine artifact after all,” the dark figure said. “Among the nine heavenly sects, it is the only one without a peak divine artifact, which means it is destined to be weak. Besides, we don’t necessarily have to destroy Shu Mountain. We just need to make it gradually decline.”
“Hmph.” The white-robed person didn’t say much.
“For now, we only need to target the younger generation of Shu Mountain and make them be expelled from the nine heavens in the near future. That will be our first victory,” the dark figure sighed. “If only the assassination of Jiang Yuebai had succeeded.”
“Although I failed, I also learned that Jiang Yuebai’s talent is even higher than we thought,” the white-robed person said coldly.”Heh…” The shadow chuckled, saying, “I’ve contacted the Underworld Sect, they’re willing to make a move during the Shu Mountain Summit. The Shu Mountain will be lax during the summit, it’s the perfect opportunity to strike a heavy blow.”
“Those demonic cultivators… You must have paid a hefty price, right?” The man in the white robe asked.
“Of course, those profit-driven people in the demonic sects are too hard to satisfy.” The shadow said indignantly, “As long as we can kick Shu Mountain out of the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths, the sects will be the biggest beneficiaries, each of them will have a chance to rise to the top, but it’s a pity that others are unwilling to make a move.”
“Shu Mountain has a history of thousands of years after all, unless someone who controls the Heavenly Yuan sweeps across with a supreme divine weapon, who would dare to provoke them lightly? The Ten Earth Sects… have been jumping around happily in recent years, but if they really get to the position of Shu Mountain, how many of them can hold it steady?” The man in the white robe spoke with a hint of disdain.
“Listen to your tone, you sound just like a proud disciple of Shu Mountain.” The shadow laughed.
“If you continue to speak in this sarcastic tone, I won’t be polite.” The man in the white robe said angrily.
“Heh, you’re now traveling the world with your divine consciousness, you can’t fight with people.” The shadow said.
“Pah!” The man in the white robe spat out.
“…” The shadow was speechless for a moment, saying, “You’re a grown man and still playing dirty, anyway, you should stay hidden for now, wait until the operation with the Underworld Sect is over. If it goes well, maybe you can come back.”
“Heh.” The man in the white robe responded with a cold laugh: “Do you think I would still believe you? Decade after decade… it’s been thirty years already!”
