Volume 2: The Demonic World Chapter 365 Betting
On top of a thousand-foot-high building in Tongyou City, Lin Qianxing bought some local food, then found the most comfortable viewing spot, set up a table by himself, and ate and drank quietly.
From time to time he would pick up the Shenyou Jade Gourd and take a sip, feeling extremely comfortable.
This magical jade gourd contained some drinks, but after Lin Qianxing accelerated the time, it had become high-quality goods that had been nurtured for nearly a million years.
Its quality has reached the fifth level. Ordinary people can get great benefits just by smelling it. It can cleanse the marrow, strengthen the body, and increase lifespan by decades.
Lin Qianxing looked down from the tall building and saw flying boats traveling back and forth anxiously over the city. Countless people were busy, and few could stop for a moment. However, they were all staring into the distance, ready to set out again at any time.
The single word "profit" drives them forward continuously, and it seems that they will never be satisfied.
For an intelligent creature, Lin Qianxing felt that this was a rather sad thing.
If you can't do what you like, after a lifetime of hard work, all you will be left with is regret. It is better to live and die in the same day and enjoy a moment of brilliance.
At least that's what he thought.
If immortality requires a lifetime of busyness, hardship and pain, he would rather leisurely spend a hundred years and then turn into dust.
At this time, a handsome man wearing light golden clothes and a jade crown on his head came to Lin Qianxing and asked, "Brother Daoist, do you mind if I sit with you?"
"Please." Lin Qianxing said with a smile.
After he sat down, he kept staring at the Shenyou Jade Gourd in Lin Qianxing's hand with a complicated expression.
"Would you like to drink together?" Lin Qianxing asked.
"Thank you very much, Brother Taoist." Yang Huan nodded.
Lin Qianxing smiled, stretched out his hand, took out two clean wine cups from the sideboard, and placed them in front of the two of them.
Then two streams of clear water spit out from the Shenyou Jade Gourd in Lin Qianxing's hand, automatically filling the two wine cups.
"It's a rare opportunity to sit at the same table with the Lord of Tongyou City. Please come in, Brother Dao." Lin Qianxing raised the wine cup and drank it all in one gulp.
Yang Huan on the opposite side also raised his glass and drank the spiritual liquid in it.
Yang Huan felt the extraordinary power of the spiritual liquid, and asked in surprise, "Brother Dao, did you know I would come?"
"I have taken away something you have been waiting for for more than 40,000 years. Naturally, I have to tell you so that you don't have to wait any longer." Lin Qianxing said, raising the Shenyou Jade Gourd in his hand.
Yang Huan shook his head slightly and said, "After all, it's not my destiny."
"It's hard to say." Lin Qianxing said with a deep smile.
If everything had not been interfered by him, according to the original destiny, Yang Huan might really have obtained it after hundreds of thousands of years.
But it's just a possibility.
There are countless possibilities for the future, and anything that cannot be grasped is false.
"I'm really unwilling to accept this." Yang Huan said.
"How about I make a bet with you, brother? If I lose, I will give you this gourd. If you lose, you can give me an ancient pine tree that you planted 40,000 years ago. How about that?" Lin Qianxing said.
"Compared to your gourd, that ancient pine tree is not special." Yang Huan was a little surprised how Lin Qianxing knew about his ancient pine tree. He said, "Brother, don't you feel at a disadvantage?"
"In my eyes, there is not much difference between everything in the world," said Lin Qianxing.
Hearing this, Yang Huan instinctively thought that Lin Qianxing was bragging, but his intuition told him that Lin Qianxing was not lying.
"Brother Dao's realm is so high that I can hardly reach it." Yang Huan sighed and said, "Brother Dao, how are you going to bet?"
"Simple, I know that you are quite accomplished in fortune-telling, so let's compete in that." Lin Qianxing said, "Brother, tell my fortune once. If you can tell it correctly, you win."
Hearing this, a hint of joy appeared on Yang Huan's face.
He is a fifth-rank [Fortune Teller]. If he had not predicted a great opportunity here, how could he have waited here for more than 40,000 years?
Now that he discovered that the opportunity had been taken away, he came to Lin Qianxing.
He thought that the opportunity had nothing to do with him anymore, but unexpectedly, after going around in circles, it seemed to be coming back again?
Just fortune telling.
This is his specialty.
How could it be wrong?
It was obvious that Lin Qianxing was just looking for an excuse to give him the treasure.
Yang Huan, who was confident, smiled and said, "Then I would like to thank you for your generosity, Brother Dao."
"Take it first, then talk about whether it's generous or not." Lin Qianxing said with a teasing smile on his face.
Yang Huan nodded and flipped his hand, from which a glass box emerged.
This glass box is transparent throughout, and inside it are nine metal sticks of different sizes, lengths and materials.
It is Yang Huan's own unique weapon.
Divination is all about asking questions to heaven and earth, and then getting answers.
Some people just flip a coin, some draw a card, and some like to play with a crystal ball.
Whatever the means, the result is the same.
The difference in the divination tools will only mean that the answers you get will be more precise.
Yang Huan took out nine divination sticks and stood them up one by one.
He immediately used his Taoist skills to predict Lin Qianxing's fortune.
Da da da da da da da~~!
In an instant, all nine sticks fell down, leaving Yang Huan stunned.
This means that he did not get any result.
Or maybe, heaven and earth cannot give a result.
In other words, the entire world cannot calculate and operate on this problem.
He was a little skeptical, so he stood the nine fortune-telling sticks up again and did the fortune-telling again.
The result was the same, all nine sticks fell down together.
Yang Huan's expression became subtle, with a hint of shock in his eyes.
If Lin Qianxing's cultivation level is far higher than his, his cultivation level cannot predict his fortune.
Then he could get some answers, too.
There is only one possibility in this situation .
But that possibility is too terrifying.
That was something Yang Huan would never believe no matter what.
He raised the sticks again and used all his Taoist skills, but in an instant, all nine sticks fell down.
Yang Huan, a fifth-level great cultivator, was shaking slightly at this moment.
Are you kidding?
As far as fortune-telling is concerned, such a result will only occur if there is no source, no root, no beginning, and no end.
And such existences can only be the Infinite Lords in the Ten Layers of the Infinite Heaven.
They are detached from the mundane world, transcending time and space, not bound by any rules, omnipotent and limitless.
Because of this, they have no roots, no origin, no beginning, and no end.
Thinking of this, Yang Huan looked at Lin Qianxing opposite him, and he suddenly understood what great opportunity he had obtained.
What kind of treasure is that?
What other opportunity could be comparable to meeting an infinite master?
"How is it, did you get it?" Lin Qianxing asked with a smile.
"I am just a firefly, how can I get the glory of the sun? I am sorry to make you laugh." Yang Huan said in a slightly flattering manner.
Lin Qianxing raised his eyebrows, realizing that Yang Huan had guessed something.
That’s right, sometimes not being able to give an answer is the best answer.
"Then your ancient pine tree is mine." Lin Qianxing said.
"If you want it, you can do it anytime. I'll ask someone to get it for you." Yang Huan said.
He immediately and decisively sent a message, asking someone to go to his residence to get the ancient pine tree.
Not long after, a pine tree about as long as an adult's arm, extremely green, with three pine cones as red as red jade hanging on it, appeared in front of Lin Qianxing.
Lin Qianxing looked at the rich Taoist energy above, nodded with satisfaction, and put it into the Shenyou Jade Gourd for nourishment.
Then Lin Qianxing said to Yang Huan, "I won't take your things for nothing. I just took the time to help you predict your fortune. Three days later at noon, you will ascend outside the West City. A great opportunity is waiting for you. Hurry up and hand it over to your subordinates, otherwise this Tongyou City will be in chaos for a while."
"Thank you for your advice." Yang Huan nodded.
Seeing his flattering look, Lin Qianxing couldn't help but shook his head and said, "I still like your unruly look at the beginning. You should recover a little."
"Hmm?" Yang Huan frowned and said, "I don't know what you mean, sir?"
"Great, keep it up." Lin Qianxing said with a smile.
After saying this, he also disappeared on the top of the tall building.
Yang Huan was excited, his face full of joy. He looked at the spiritual liquid in the wine cup in front of him which had been refilled at some point, and carefully collected it all in his Qiankun bag.
This is a treasure. He just drank a cup and felt that he had gained great benefits. As long as he digested it well for a hundred years, his Taoism skills would be improved greatly.
And it wasn't just the drinks. He also had to collect the leftover food on the table, the cutlery used by the Venerable, and the chairs he had sat on.
If he wasn't about to ascend to heaven, to be honest, he would have refined this building into a magic weapon and taken it away.
What a joke, a place that is tinged with the aura of the Way of the Infinite Master, what a treasure this is!
It is much more precious than that gourd.
…
Human race, Shen Yao Dynasty, Zhuangzhou.
The Shen Yao Dynasty is considered one of the major forces of the human race. It has a vast territory, strong power, and has been established for tens of thousands of years.
The seventy-five national pillars are all great monks of the fourth level, and the monarch Ao Quan is a fifth-level powerful man.
Nearly 10 billion people under his rule live and work in peace and contentment. There are few forces in Lingyuantian that can be compared with it.
But something has been happening here recently.
Zhuang Guozhu, one of the seventy -five national pillars, was poisoned by the Scale Clan's ancestor when he was fighting with him. Now he is in critical condition. The king has tried every possible means and invited many famous doctors, but to no avail.
If a pillar of the country died, it would be a huge loss to the entire Shen Yao Dynasty.
The king even promised that if anyone could cure Zhuang Guozhu, he would be given a hundred cities and a fourth-level official contract.
A fourth-level professional contract is enough to create a new fourth-level great monk.
It can be said that its value is comparable to that of Zhuang Guozhu.
The king was willing to pay such a huge price to treat Zhuang Guozhu, which shows his generosity.
Lin Qianxing played with the newly bought "Xuan Ji Pan" and walked to the bounty place on the wall.
After glancing at the bounty projected at the top, Lin Qianxing used the Mystical Disk to scan the secret pattern key at the bottom.
The next moment, the bounty was also projected onto Lin Qianxing’s mysterious disk.
Lin Qianxing scrolled directly to the bottom and clicked to accept the reward.
[You have accepted the reward for "saving Zhuang Guozhu". Please do not leave. The vehicle from Guozhu Mansion will arrive in a quarter of an hour...]
