Chapter 1271: Star Dome Jade Liquid (First update, requesting everything)
The Forgotten Strait is located on the edge of the North Sea and is led by the four-clawed black dragon Ao Qin; he is the nephew of the Northland Dragon King Ao Run and, furthermore, the grandson of the North Sea Dragon King.
However, compared to the Northland Dragon King Ao Run, Ao Qin appears quite mediocre; for many years, he has remained at the 9th rank of the Demon Saint level, which is the same as ordinary members of the Dragon Clan, many of whom cannot progress further in their entire lives.
Like other forces, the closer one gets to the center of the North Sea, the stronger the lords become.
It is precisely because of his strength that Ao Qin's territory is located at the Forgotten Strait on the edge of the North Sea.
Of course, this is only in relation to the Dragon Clan; after all, no matter how mediocre Ao Qin is, he can still compare to an ordinary Demon Emperor Level Spirit Beast.
The Dragon Clan is very prolific; besides the dragons themselves, they have a vast number of Sub-Dragon races under their banner. This is the reason why the Dragon Clan can still roam the Four Seas even after the Three Clans War, unlike the Phoenix and Qilin Race, whose influence has waned, forcing them to huddle in limited territories.
There were no accidents on the way, and after just over half an hour, Li Zhangsheng appeared above the Forgotten Strait.
Without hesitation, Li Zhangsheng extended his right hand, and a shimmering letter appeared in his palm; it was the personal letter from the Northland Dragon King Ao Run.
Li Zhangsheng had read the contents of the letter; besides introducing both parties, it directly stated that Li Zhangsheng's strength was not below his own, and he hoped Ao Qin would not come into conflict with him and would ideally facilitate a trade.
Of course, Ao Run did not mention the news that Li Zhangsheng was a Double-Character King.
There was no help for it; Ao Run knew Li Zhangsheng's strength, and even he admitted he was inferior, let alone Ao Qin. He was afraid that Ao Qin would lose his mind and reject Li Zhangsheng's proposal.
The next moment, Ao Run's letter turned into a streak of light, fell into the sea, and vanished.
Li Zhangsheng stood with his hands behind his back in the void, waiting quietly.
Although he could crush Ao Qin, Ao Qin's backing was too great; whether it was seizing by force or killing Ao Qin, both were inferior strategies that carried great risks.
The Dragon Clan is a group where moving one part affects the whole; even the Three Sovereigns would have to weigh the consequences, so naturally, Li Zhangsheng would not do such a thankless task.
He did not wait long before the seawater below parted to both sides like curtains. Immediately following, a youth wearing a purple-gold crown and a black cloak led the way, surfing out on the waves. Following behind him were a crowd of Turtle Prime Ministers, Sea-Patrolling Yakshas, and Shrimp Soldier Xiejian.
He was the master of the Forgotten Strait, Ao Qin. He had a face like polished jade, and his expression held majesty. After arriving before Li Zhangsheng, he could not help but look him over with curiosity.
Ao Qin had also heard of Li Zhangsheng. One must never think that the Dragon Clan only stays in the ocean to enjoy themselves; as the overlords who have ruled the Four Seas since ancient times, the Dragon Clan has always been dedicated to gathering intelligence from all aspects. Especially since the Forgotten Strait is not far from the continent, it was only natural for Ao Qin to pay attention.
Ao Qin was full of regard for this peerless Heavenly Pride before him, and not just because of his uncle, Ao Run.
Li Zhangsheng achieving the rank of King at the mere age of 20 could be described as unprecedented, and whether there would be anyone after him was a major question.
That was not all; judging from the contents of Ao Run's letter, Li Zhangsheng's strength was not below Ao Run's, which made Ao Qin regard him even more highly.
Ao Qin knew his uncle Ao Run's strength very well; he could not last five rounds under Ao Run, which meant Li Zhangsheng could easily defeat him. This made his personality much more restrained.
The Dragon Clan is proud, but that does not mean they are stupid; they are also very good at reading the situation and knowing when to be sensible.
"I have read my uncle's letter. His Majesty the King, please!"
Ao Qin made a gesture of invitation, and Li Zhangsheng stepped forward, landing on the crest of a wave.
Under Ao Qin's control, the group descended into the sea. As a member of the Dragon Clan, Ao Qin's ability to control Water Attribute energy naturally goes without saying, and he had no intention of using this to test Li Zhangsheng.
Li Zhangsheng was an existence comparable to his uncle Ao Run; Ao Qin was not stupid, so he would not go looking for trouble.
Thus, after diving into the sea, the nearby water automatically parted again, with only the waves beneath their feet continuing to roll downward.
The seabed was a full thousand meters from the surface and could be considered quite dark, with only some plants and fish emitting a faint light.
As for the pressure, Li Zhangsheng did not feel it at all.
Before long, a shimmering light appeared ahead, and a magnificent palace came into view.
This was Ao Qin's Dragon Palace; its scale was not inferior to the Baisheng King Palace, and it appeared even more luxurious.
Of course, this did not mean the Baisheng King Palace was inferior to this Dragon Palace.
Li Zhangsheng raised his head slightly and saw the four large characters "Forgotten Dragon Palace" written on the plaque above the palace gate.
Ao Qin brought Li Zhangsheng into the Dragon Palace; the palace was completely sealed off from the seawater, allowing for free breathing.
The two took their seats as host and guest, and beautiful clam maidens served nectar and rare spiritual fruits before standing to the side to serve Li Zhangsheng.
Li Zhangsheng picked up a purple jade teacup and sipped the nectar carefully.
Clap, clap, clap~
Ao Qin sat in the main seat and clapped his hands. Immediately, a group of gorgeous mermaids entered and began to dance with a unique flair.
Li Zhangsheng sat in his seat, admiring their moving dance, seemingly having forgotten the purpose of his visit.
Ao Qin looked at Li Zhangsheng, and the two began to chat casually, talking about everything under the sun.
After a long while, the dancers finally stopped and stood in a line.
"I wonder if His Majesty the King has any interest in them?"
The "them" in Ao Qin's mouth naturally referred to this group of mermaid dancers.
This group of mermaids looked like cargo waiting for their fate to be pronounced; the timid ones could not help but tremble.
It was not that Li Zhangsheng's charm was too low, but that the aesthetic standards of every species are different; female mermaids tend to prefer rugged males.
Li Zhangsheng put down the purple jade teacup and smiled as he refused: "Dragon King, as the saying goes, a gentleman does not take what others love. I appreciate your kind intentions!"
Although this group of mermaids looked good, there were plenty of clam maidens, sea maidens, and Winged Persons in his own plane who were prettier than them. Furthermore, compared to Ning Bizhen and Kailan, who stood at the pinnacle of beauty, they could only be considered common and plain.
"That is a pity. Very well, you may all withdraw!"
The mermaids, as if granted a general amnesty, hurriedly bowed and left one after another.
"I will not say any more superfluous words. This dragon is not good at beating around the bush. His Majesty the King, this is the Star Dome Jade Liquid."
While speaking, Ao Qin unexpectedly tossed a Jade Bottle to Li Zhangsheng.
Li Zhangsheng caught it in surprise. After opening the stopper, he saw a pool of liquid that looked like a starry sky, flickering with starlight from time to time and containing immense star power.
That's right, this was the Star Dome Jade Liquid, and it was the purpose of his visit here. However, Ao Qin's action was a bit beyond his expectations; he wasn't even afraid that Li Zhangsheng would seize the Star Dome Jade Liquid.
