Chapter 223 The Western Barbarians Are Not Human
The tip of the sword floating in the air was pointing at Lu Jingjing's brow two meters away, with a chilling look, just like the expression on Bilian's face now.
"How scary, little sister, your spiritual energy is no match for me." Lu Jingjing didn't care at all and said with a smile: "After all, I am one of the whales with the most spiritual energy in the world."
After saying that, she flicked her fingers forward, and a solid blue spiritual energy barrier appeared in front of her.
Even someone like Lu Sen, who only practices internal energy, can feel that the amount of spiritual energy is terrifying, not to mention practicing sword-controlling techniques and using spiritual energy as a weapon.
At this time, Lu Xianxian smiled and said, "A pure whale disease only has the ability to attract spiritual energy, but does not have the characteristics of using spiritual energy efficiently. Don't be scared by her. It took her all to condense this barrier."
"You are worthy of being my good sister. You really understand us." Lu Jingjing laughed and retracted the spiritual barrier.
The ability of the whale is to absorb huge amounts of spiritual energy, but the problem is... the whale is extremely inefficient in using spiritual energy.
If expressed in numbers, Bilian's efficiency in using spiritual energy is 2, then Lu Xianxian's efficiency in using spiritual energy is 0.5, and Jinghuan's efficiency in using spiritual energy is... 0.00005.
It can be said that the higher the spiritual energy absorption rate of a race, the lower the efficiency of its use of spiritual energy.
Although the whales possess a large amount of spiritual energy, they are actually not very good at fighting.
The situation with the whale formed by Lu Xianxian's tail is better, and she can use spiritual energy techniques, but her efficiency is extremely low in comparison.
When Lu Sen saw Lu Jingjing retracting the spiritual barrier, he let out a light sigh and seemed a little disappointed.
In fact, he had already put the idea in his backpack, and was ready to take out the pickaxe to knock off one or two pieces.
To be honest, one piece of spiritual energy crystal is equivalent to the annual supply of the entire system home... This is simply getting rich overnight.
Although there were nearly a thousand spiritual crystals in his backpack, who would complain about having too much of these things?
If he finds a few more key materials and spends about nine layers of spiritual crystals, he will be able to build the legendary giant floating solar ship.
The special effects of that thing are: magical wonder, can fly and move within the atmosphere, and the development value of the country it belongs to is +2.
Lu Sen now hopes that the Northern Song Dynasty will go out, so this wonder that can increase the development value is his first choice to build next.
At this time, Lu Jingjing looked at Bilian again and said, "Little girl, can you please take back your sword?"
"I don't know how old this old woman is, huh." Bilian retracted the flying sword unhappily.
At this time, Lu Xianxian and Xue Nu both turned their heads and saw Bilian with strange expressions on their faces.
Especially Lu Xianxian, the corners of her mouth were a little twisted, after all, Lu Jingjing looked exactly like her.
Zhao Bilian also realized that she had said the wrong thing, and she smiled awkwardly at her two friends.
Lu Sen took this opportunity to ask, "Your eyes lit up just now, what does that mean?"
"It's nothing. The Eye of Illusion is one of the innate magical powers that most demons have." Lu Jingjing looked into Lu Sen's eyes again and explained, "I just wanted to see your identity, your past life, and your origins! It's just that your woman misunderstood and thought I was going to attack you."
Lu Sen turned his head to look at Lu Xianxian, who nodded slightly.
Lu Sen's heart moved, and he asked, "Then what did you see?"
"I didn't see anything." Lu Jingjing said helplessly: "You are a strange person. I have never seen a person with a blank face. There is really nothing."
Lu Xianxian and Xue Nu both turned their heads to look at Lu Sen, looking quite curious.
Seeing them like this, Lu Jingjing was surprised and asked, "Wait, sister, haven't you seen your husband's past and present lives?"
Lu Sen was also quite curious. This ability seemed to be very useful. Why not use it on himself?
Lu Xianxian explained, "Because it is insulting. More than two hundred years ago, if the demons dared to look at humans like this, it would be like stripping someone's clothes and insulting them, and they would fight. So our demons usually use this magical power to look at our own people, and never look at humans."
I see.
Lu Sen thought about it and agreed. It was a bit strange to know whether he was a man or a woman, a human or a monster in his previous life.
"Do people really have past lives?" Lu Sen couldn't help but ask.
If this statement is true, then the underworld should also exist.
Lu Xianxian covered her mouth and chuckled, "Previous life is just a modifier. In essence, it refers to my husband's past, how he was born and how he grew up. They are just fragments. The stronger the Eye of Delusion, the more you can see, and naturally the more detailed it is. And people with strong strength are difficult to be seen through."
It turns out to be bragging... But it's normal when you think about it. In this era, everyone likes to use exaggerated words to describe certain things.
This is true for humans, and I think it is also true for demons.
"I can't see through your roots, which means you are very powerful." Lu Jingjing knelt back to the original place, looked at Lu Sen and continued: "It also means that you really have the ability to make my sister surrender. Otherwise, you can also accept me. I am very easy to raise. Not only do I not need to eat, but I can also supply you with some spiritual energy every month."
Oh, this is really good.
However, Lu Sen was not immediately defeated by this sugar-coated bullet. He asked, "What did you mean by the old woman wanting to destroy the world?"
"That's what it means literally. The old woman feels that there are too many humans in this world. She herself has been suppressed by humans for more than two thousand years, so she hates them to death."
"Is it the whale that was suppressed by Emperor Yan?"
"Who else could it be but her?"
"Then why don't you follow her?" Lu Sen asked.
Lu Jingjing said as a matter of course: "I am a Qingqiu fox. Although I have the ability of whales, I am still a fox at heart. I have never been hurt by humans, so why should I follow her and go crazy?"
"What about the other two tails?" Lu Xianxian couldn't help but ask.
"The second and third brothers ran away. I don't know where they hid." Lu Jingjing said with a smile, "If you hadn't found me, I would probably be sleeping soundly now. But you guys are scary. You broke into my sleeping place and wanted to kill me. I was so sleepy at the time that I instinctively fought with you. I was scared by you and ran a long way before coming back after I woke up."
Lu Jingjing hibernates for at least ten years at a time. Since he sleeps for a long time, it is normal that he does not wake up so quickly when he wakes up.
Lu Xianxian asked, "Do you really want to join my husband?"
"Rather than saying I'm your husband, I'm coming to you, sister." Then Lu Jingjing looked at Lu Sen and said, "As long as you are recognized by me, I will recognize you."
The meaning is very clear. She personally has no interest in Lu Sen and just wants to stay with Lu Xianxian.
Lu Xianxian looked at Lu Sen: "My dear, what do you think?"
"Since she is your sister, let her follow us." Lu Sen said with a smile.
Where can I find a good thing like this that can supply a certain amount of spiritual crystals every month?
Lu Xianxian breathed a sigh of relief, then looked at Lu Jingjing: "My husband has agreed, why don't you thank him quickly. From now on, I will follow my husband's lead."
"My dear." Lu Jingjing called sweetly, then bent her upper body to salute: "From now on, I will treat you sincerely."
"No problem." Lu Sen also clasped his fists and saluted.
Lu Jingjing called her "my dear" sweetly, but Lu Sen knew that her heart was not with him. She was different from Lu Xianxian.
But it doesn’t matter...as long as Xianxian has a good relationship with me.
As the original body, can't she control her own tail?
Then Lu Jingjing jumped up, landed in front of Lu Xianxian, and hugged the latter, sticking close to each other, looking extremely happy.
It’s just that simple how foxes show affection to each other.
After Lu Jingjing dispersed the illusion barrier, he looked at Xiao Rongrong beside him and said, "Little girl, I'm sorry to bother you this time. I think you will die young. I estimate that you will die before you are 20 years old."
Xiao Rongrong widened her eyes.
If someone else said this, Xiao Rongrong would not believe it at all and would want to beat that person to death. But the problem was that the person who said this was a real "big demon", how could she not believe it.
Suddenly there was some fear on his face.
At that time, Xiao Rongrong was less than twenty years old, and had been the queen for less than four years. She had not yet developed her vigor and scheming. She was easily happy and easily showed her joy, but her fear was that it would only show on the outside.
Seeing her like this, Lu Jingjing plucked a small tuft of white hair from his own ear and hung it beside her ear.
After these white fox ears were hung on, they seemed to have grown roots and blended into Xiao Rongrong's jet-black hair.
"If one day you are facing death, you can use this to escape." Lu Jingjing patted Xiao Rongrong's head and said, "It's a pity that such a good girl died so tragically."
Xiao Rongrong breathed a sigh of relief, bowed, and said gratefully, "Thank you, Madam."
This "Niangniang" is a respectful title and does not have any meaning of position or identity.
Then Lu Jingjing looked at Lu Sen and said, "Let's go, my dear."
Then they returned to the cave in the flying vehicle.
This time, Zhao Bilian was carrying Lu Xianxian and Lu Jingjing, and Xue Nu and Lu Sen were riding together.
Returning to the mountain where the cave was, Lu Jingjing jumped off the aircraft when landing, then rushed to the top of the mountain in surprise, and was blocked by a transparent invisible wall.
The collision made her rub her nose.
Lu Sen and Lu Xianxian followed.
Lu Sen couldn't help but ask: "Lu Jingjing, what are you doing..."
"You actually have a hibiscus tree?"
Lu Jingjing looked surprised. She lay on the wall of the barrier, looking at the saplings that were already half a leg tall. Her face was filled with shock. "How did you plant such a rare treasure on the top of a mountain?"
"Do you know how to plant a hibiscus tree?" Lu Sen couldn't help but ask, and then he looked at Lu Xianxian, as if this original vixen didn't know what was so magical about this thing.
As if knowing what Lu Sen was thinking, Lu Jingjing explained: "Sister, you don't know much. I followed that old woman for a while, about ten years, and she taught me a lot of things. Among them is the magic of this hibiscus tree."
"What's so magical about the Fusang tree?" Lu Sen thought for a moment and said, "It has intelligence and can produce spiritual energy. It also seems to have a special barrier that can move islands?"
Lu Jingjing looked at Lu Sen, shook her head at first, then thought for a while and said, "My dear, let me make it clear that what I am going to say next was also taught by that old woman. Whether it is true or not, you have to verify it yourself."
Lu Sen nodded to show that he understood.
Seeing Lu Sen like this, Lu Jingjing began to explain.
It turns out that in addition to the three magical powers that Lu Sen just mentioned, the Fusang tree has another greatest characteristic: luck!
There is more than one Fusang tree, and it has different names in different places. For example, it is called Fusang in the Central Plains, the World Tree among the barbarians in the north, and the Dust Tree among the barbarians in the west.
Wherever there is a hibiscus tree, great fortune will gather.
"Oh, so the people of Tianji Sect have great luck?"
Lu Jingjing nodded: "After the spiritual energy of heaven and earth dissipated, even the strongest cultivation sect like Shushan Sword Sect praised it, but Tianji Sect is still alive and well. Isn't this a clear proof?"
Lu Xianxian asked in confusion: "But when they had conflicts with Langjun, Langjun always won."
"That means that my husband's luck is stronger than the Fusang tree?" Lu Jingjing suddenly realized: "Now I understand why my sister became my husband's subordinate and even brought me along. Among the four strongest monsters in the world, two are under your command. It seems that my husband can control the whole world."
It seemed to make sense when put this way, and Lu Xianxian nodded.
She also felt that her husband seemed a little too powerful.
"Now there is another Fusang tree here." Lu Jingjing laughed, full of pride: "With her attitude, she still wants to use the barbarians in the west to destroy the Central Plains. It's wishful thinking."
Holding the Western barbarians hostage?
Lu Sen was stunned for a moment. He took a deep breath and asked, "I was very interested in what you said just now, Jingjing, about 'destroying the world'. Can you tell me about it now?"
Lu Jingjing nodded vigorously and then explained what the real whale was going to do.
It turned out that after the whale plague was unsealed, it first headed north with Lu Xianxian's three tails. In the eyes of the real whale plague, although these three new whale plagues were originally fox tails, they became their own people because they had the abilities of the whale plague.
After fleeing to the north, the four of them rested for a while, about ten years.
Then Lu Jingjing didn't want to run away anymore, so he stayed.
The second and third ones also ran away. Because of the whales' ability to absorb spiritual energy, it was not convenient for them to live together for a long time, and they would instinctively snatch food from each other.
Before leaving, the real Whale Pandemic said that she wanted to destroy the Central Plains.
But the fighting power of the whales is actually not very strong. If they were not helped by illusions, a mortal army of more than 100,000 people might be able to crush them to death in a head-on battle.
But Jinghuan thought of a very interesting method. She wanted to go to the west to find other Fusang trees, and then live next to them. She would use her own spiritual energy to nourish the world tree as mentioned by the Western barbarians, expand the range of its luck, and root the subconscious desire to destroy the Central Plains in the blood of the Western barbarians.
She believed that no matter how long it took, one day, the fortune of the West would prevail over that of the Central Plains. At that time, the Central Plains would surely be destroyed by the Western barbarians, and the people of the Central Plains would be born as slaves for generations.
Lu Sen felt overwhelmed after hearing this. He vaguely felt that this matter seemed to be related to the timeline of his original world: "Wait, isn't she going to destroy the world? Why is she only destroying the people of Central Plains?"
"Western barbarians are not human!" Lu Jingjing blinked.
