Chapter 727 You Make the Arrangements
Leng Yue saw that the storm had finally passed and her life was no longer in danger. Her pair of dark eyes secretly moved back and forth between Qin Ziling and Lan Ran, her gossipy heart burning with curiosity.
What could be going on? Tell me, could it be that he has deceived you into having sex with him?
Qin Ziling finally breathed a sigh of relief. Seeing Leng Yue's eyes darting around, he knew what she was thinking. He said coldly, "What are you still standing there for? Why don't you go meet your master and sign a contract with her?"
Leng Yue's gossip-fueled fire was immediately extinguished, and she hurriedly stepped forward and knelt down to kowtow to Lan Ran.
Lan Ran wrote talismans in blood and kept hitting Leng Yue between her eyebrows.
Leng Yue endured it with a solemn expression, and then turned into a green light and sank into the Bingsha Pearl.
Lan Ran's mind moved, and he took the Ice Evil Pearl into his body.
Ice belongs to water.
The Ice Evil Pearl is not only a Taoist treasure with water attributes, but also has the fierceness of Yin Evil and contains the mysterious true meaning of water.
Lan Ran is a water spirit body, and she practices water-based Taoism. After she received the Ice Evil Pearl, she immediately understood the true meaning and changes of water, and her cultivation level naturally improved.
With the improvement of cultivation and a good mood, my appetite will naturally improve.
Originally, Lan Ran could only eat a small portion of wolf meat at one time, but he ended up eating most of it.
That night, Qin Ziling and Lan Ran both sat cross-legged in the tent to practice, refining and absorbing the earth wolf meat.
No words were spoken that night.
On the second day, the sun rose from behind the mountains in the east.
The sun shines on the valley, and crystal water droplets hang on the green grass leaves, reflecting colorful colors.
Lan Ran walked out of the tent and stretched. He inexplicably found that he no longer felt the nervousness he had when he first entered the Dark Emperor Heaven. Instead, he felt surprisingly relaxed and happy.
"Good morning, Master Lan Feng. What should we do next?" Qin Ziling asked.
"You make the arrangements. I'll listen to you." Lan Ran blurted out.
"How can this be possible?" Qin Ziling was slightly stunned and said modestly.
"What's wrong with that? You are meticulous, cunning... and shrewd. I can't compare with you." Lan Ran said.
"Ahem, Master Lan Feng, it's enough for you to be meticulous. Forget about being scheming and scheming. Forget it." Qin Ziling said.
Lan Ran chuckled, but soon realized something was wrong and returned to his usual cool and dignified self, saying calmly: "Anyway, you are definitely better than me."
"Okay then." Qin Ziling nodded reluctantly, and then said: "This Dark Emperor Heaven is very large, and it is filled with strange power everywhere. The spatial power is also very turbulent. Not to mention that the immortal consciousness can't scan far, even my soul will be greatly disturbed.
Things like the Heaven-Hidden Immortal Grass, the Wind-Fire Ascension Fruit, the Heavenly Dao Creation Fruit, and other natural treasures are rare and hidden in such a complex and vast environment. They are just like a drop in the ocean. Even if you spend twenty years searching for them, you may not be able to find even one."
"That's right! Do you have any good ideas?" Lan Ran's eyes lit up slightly and he nodded.
"The greater the danger, the greater the opportunity. If I'm not mistaken, the places designated as the Storm, Curse, and Hundred Beasts Mountain Range by people who have entered in the past should be the places with the most natural treasures. Of course, there must be other restricted areas that have not been announced, but that is not something we can know about for the time being." Qin Ziling continued.
"Tsk!" Lan Ran took a deep breath and said, "Are you planning to go to the three restricted areas now?"
Qin Ziling nodded and said, "It is said that all natural treasures are guarded by powerful beasts. Many powerful beasts live in the Hundred Beasts Mountain Range, so it is most likely that natural treasures are hidden there. Moreover, Elder Tianji once said that the Hundred Beasts Mountain Range is located to the west of Dark Emperor Heaven. The mountain range is like a giant dragon lying across the western land, majestic and tall, with numerous peaks standing in rows, which is extremely spectacular. It should be the easiest to identify and find among the three forbidden areas.
In addition, one of our purposes in entering Dark Emperor Heaven is to hunt down the remains of divine beasts to nourish our body and improve our cultivation. Since the Hundred Beasts Mountain Range is where the remains of divine beasts live, it is an opportunity for us. We can fight there to support ourselves. Moreover, the remains of divine beasts have a strong aura and move around everywhere, so they are much easier to find than natural treasures.”
At this point, Qin Ziling paused for a moment, then spoke word by word: "So, our first target is the Hundred Beasts Mountain Range."
"The Hundred Beasts Mountain Range? Didn't Elder Tianji say that there lived a group of ancient beasts that were comparable to the Ninth Rank True Immortals? And it is rumored that there are ancient beasts that may be higher than the Ninth Rank True Immortals deep in the mountains. Throughout the ages, many Ninth Rank True Immortals who hid their auras and entered the Dark Emperor Heaven perished in the Hundred Beasts Mountain Range.
Would it be too risky to go to the Hundred Beasts Mountain Range for our first battle? Anyway, we have 20 years, so why not go around and hunt some weak relic species to improve our strength, and look for other opportunities. When we are stronger and see how other people are doing, it won’t be too late to go to the Hundred Beasts Mountain Range.” Lan Ran said.
"That kind of sporadic hunting is too slow. I need to hunt a large number of legendary beasts to quickly improve my strength." Qin Ziling said.
"Although the divine beast's seeds are an excellent tonic, they still need time to be absorbed and refined. Too much will not be absorbed and refined. I know that your foundation is abnormal and far beyond that of ordinary people, but after all, your realm is still low. If you don't have the help of that treasure, you are still in the realm of the eighth-grade true immortal. How many seeds can you absorb and refine in a short period of time?
Besides, this Dark Emperor Heaven is full of strange energy and disordered space. You are a fellow cultivator of the Three Daos and have a strong soul. Perhaps you can still survive the Wind and Fire Tribulation here. If I don’t get the Wind and Fire Dao Fruit, even if my strength is improved, I dare not survive the Wind and Fire Tribulation. If I don’t dare to survive the Wind and Fire Tribulation, my realm will always be the seventh level. No matter how many legendary beasts you hunt in the later stage, it will be useless to me. "Lan Ran frowned slightly and said.
She always felt that Qin Ziling was too confident and his plan was a bit radical. In fact, with their current situation and strength, there was no need for this. They could just proceed steadily and sooner or later they would find some opportunities.
"I'll take you to a place and you'll understand." Qin Ziling smiled mysteriously at Lan Ran.
"Where are you going? You act like you are very familiar with this Dark Emperor Heaven!" Lan Ran couldn't help but roll his eyes when he saw Qin Ziling acting mysterious and a little smug.
"Don't worry about it, close your eyes, and don't resist the magic power I cast on you." Qin Ziling said.
Lan Ran glanced at Qin Ziling unhappily, but still closed his eyes.
Lan Ran just closed his eyes when he felt a force acting on his body, followed by a feeling of spatial distortion similar to stepping into the Dark Emperor Heavenly Harmony Channel.
Lan Ran was startled and was about to open his eyes when he suddenly felt the warm sunshine falling on him. The gentle spring breeze blew towards him with bursts of fragrance. There was no longer the strange and cold atmosphere in the Dark Emperor Sky that made people feel uncomfortable, nor the wind blades caused by the chaotic fluctuations of spatial power.
Not only that, Lan Ran also felt many auras of varying strengths, nearly a hundred in total.
The weakest one is at the fourth-grade True Immortal level.
Lan Ran suddenly opened his eyes.
She saw the blue sky and gorgeous rainbows stretching across the sky. Under the rainbows, white clouds were floating and birds were flying. It was an indescribably beautiful scene.
But Lan Ran was terrified, because those rainbows all exuded a terrifying aura, and one of the rainbows even gave her a strong sense of danger and déjà vu.
"Master Lan Feng, welcome to Qiankun Cave Heaven!" When Lan Ran was frightened, Qin Ziling's voice rang in his ears.
She didn't know when Qin Ziling had appeared in front of her.
Standing on Qin Ziling's left and right were two beautiful women and some other people.
One of them was a short and fat old man with a pair of drooping eyebrows. He was stroking his eyebrows while looking Lan Ran up and down, nodding from time to time, which made Lan Ran feel inexplicably guilty.
"Qin Ziling, this..." However, Lan Ran did not care about Jian Bailou's meaningful look at this time, but looked at Qin Ziling with surprise and suspicion.
After killing Shentu Kun and the fire dragon emerged, Qin Ziling told Lan Ran his real name.
"This is my cave magic weapon. They and those who practice in this Qiankun cave are all disciples of my Wuji Sect. This is my teacher Jian Bailou, this is my other teacher Lai Yinuan, this is my first wife Xiao Qing, this is my third wife Xia Yan, and this is..." Qin Ziling introduced them one by one.
As Lan Ran listened to Qin Ziling's introduction, his heart was filled with shock.
Yesterday, Qin Ziling suddenly broke out and killed Shen Tu Kun, which shocked Lan Ran extremely.
As a result, Lan Ran discovered that Qin Ziling's sudden outburst yesterday was nothing compared to the scene before him.
A cave-like magical treasure that forms a small world of its own, nearly a hundred disciples… plus his own terrifying combat power, a Taoist treasure of the Xuan level, and five powerful Hades Immortal Generals. If he were given twenty years, Lan Ran simply couldn't believe what kind of huge waves he would create in the Dark Emperor Heaven.
"Lan Ran, you don't mind me calling you by your name, do you?" Jian Bailou said, stroking his long raised eyebrows.
Lan Ran was startled, and subconsciously bowed and said modestly: "Senior Jian, you are too polite. You can just call me Lan Ran."
Qin Ziling looked at Jian Bailou, who was obviously only over 200 years old and not even 300 years old, but he was taking advantage of his age in front of Lan Ran. And Lan Ran, the master of Xuanbing Peak and a seventh-rank true immortal, was actually humbly calling him senior. Qin Ziling could not help but be speechless.
Lai Yinuan and others who knew Jian Bailou inside and out looked up at the sky in silence, with a look of disdain on their faces.
How shameless! How old is she? How old are you? You are so arrogant. What the hell!
However, Jian Bailou did not feel anything was wrong. He stroked his drooping eyebrows, nodded to Lan Ran and said, "More than a hundred years ago, I heard Zi Ling talk about you to me privately many times. When I met you today, you are indeed pure and innocent, beautiful, and talented. No wonder Zi Ling would..."
In the past, if someone had said this to Lan Ran in person, she would have definitely looked frosty and frowned, but today her pretty face turned red, and she inexplicably felt that the short and fat old man with long eyebrows in front of her was as amiable as Senior Brother Huangfu.
