Chapter 960: Dragon Luan (Second update, requesting everything)
The Dai Kingdom is a full ten thousand miles away from the Mucang Empire; even if Aixi flies at full speed, it will take at least half a day's effort.
During the flight, Li Zhangsheng kept his attention on the Gate of Light and Darkness, or more accurately, the Glazed Bottle within it.
After more than an hour, the Demonic Qi in the Glazed Bottle was completely purified; just like the Fifth-Grade Black Lotus before, once the Demonic Qi was fully purified, the Glazed Bottle shattered, and a mass of Abyss Consciousness rushed out.
Unlike before, this mass of Abyss Consciousness was not only several times larger than that of the Black Lotus, but it also seemed to possess a certain instinct or intelligence, beginning to charge left and right within the Gate of Light and Darkness, causing the Gate of Light and Darkness to tremble violently.
Li Zhangsheng hurriedly increased his input of Mental Power, which allowed the Gate of Light and Darkness to stabilize rapidly; no matter how this mass of Abyss Consciousness struck, it was to no avail.
Endless radiance enveloped the Abyss Consciousness, rippling in layers, as wisps of Abyss Consciousness seemed to turn into black smoke and were continuously purified.
Although the quantity of this mass of Abyss Consciousness was several times that of the Fifth-Grade Black Lotus, for some reason, it was actually easier to be purified by the Gate of Light and Darkness.
This left Li Zhangsheng a bit puzzled; according to common sense, the higher the rank, the harder it should be to purify, yet now it was the opposite, and he did not know the reason.
However, this was a good thing for Li Zhangsheng; the faster he purified the Abyss Consciousness, the more World Power and Merit Profound Yellow Qi he would obtain, which could rapidly strengthen his foundation.
At this moment, Li Zhangsheng took out the shattered Glazed Bottle.
Although it had lost its Demonic Qi and Abyss Consciousness, it still possessed its characteristics, and Li Zhangsheng could clearly feel a rich Soul Breath.
"If I use the Original Light to fuse with it, perhaps I can take the Original Light to the next level."
Li Zhangsheng thought of the Original Light; this was the only soul-type Strange Treasure in his possession, and although it usually did not look like much, the mere effect of nourishing and guarding the soul was enough for Li Zhangsheng to value it.
After putting away the Glazed Bottle, Li Zhangsheng continued to monitor the Gate of Light and Darkness, fearing an accident.
Time passed unknowingly, and by the time Li Zhangsheng crossed more than ten countries and arrived at the Mucang Empire, the sky was already near dusk.
Due to the Temporary Pass, Li Zhangsheng did not encounter any difficulties even when passing through the kings of the countries along the way.
This was not just because of the Temporary Pass; it was mainly because they did not dare to offend the Human Emperor Mansion.
Just as he entered the border of the Mucang Empire, Li Zhangsheng had Aixi stop and waited patiently.
After only a quarter of an hour, a cyan stream of light flew toward this side; its speed was very fast, almost no worse than Aixi in her prime.
The cyan stream of light stopped a few hundred meters away, revealing a large cyan bird and a pretty woman standing on its back.
The pretty woman looked to be only about twenty years old, dressed in tight-fitting clothes, giving one a feeling of being heroic and spirited.
Li Zhangsheng could conclude at a glance that this was a King.
The pretty woman was also sizing up Li Zhangsheng, and she said with a smile: "My ancestor specifically instructed me to wait here for His Majesty the Quan King. Seeing His Majesty the Quan King's demeanor today, it is truly better to meet than to hear of his fame!"
"So it is His Majesty the Xun King, excuse my lack of manners!"
Li Zhangsheng had naturally done his homework and had naturally paid attention to some information about the various Kings, Double-Character Kings, and even the Human Emperor of the Mucang Empire, among which included the Xun King, Luo Chuling.
Luo Chuling was a direct descendant of the Qingmu King, Luo Yuanjun, and was also the only King born among Luo Yuanjun's descendants in these years.
Although she appeared to be only about twenty years old, in reality, Luo Chuling was already over forty, but such an age was considered quite young among Kings.
Of course, she could not be compared to Li Zhangsheng.
It must be said that being able to obtain the title of Xun King among the Eight Kings was enough to show Luo Chuling's talent; after all, the Heavenly Dao could not have bestowed a title like Xun King upon her without reason.
"His Majesty the Quan King, please follow me!"
The next moment, Luo Chuling took Li Zhangsheng and flew toward the capital of the Mucang Empire.
During this process, Li Zhangsheng incidentally obtained the data of the large cyan bird beneath Luo Chuling.
【Spirit Beast Name】: Longluan (Mature Stage, Demi-God Beast. Consumed Xun Wind Essence, enhancing the power of Wind Element skills, possesses the effect of ignoring wind resistance, comprehended Xun Wind Divine Thunder. Comprehended Mystery, greatly enhancing skill power; Mystery Guard: exempts a portion of damage, mainly depending on the opponent's realm.)
【Spirit Beast Realm】: Demon King 9th Rank
【Spirit Beast Race】: Higher Overlord
【Spirit Beast Quality】: Half-Step Epic
【Spirit Beast Bloodline】: Qingluan (Vigorous), Yinglong (Rich)
【Spirit Beast Attribute】: Wind + Water
【Spirit Beast Status】: Healthy
【Spirit Beast Weakness】: None 《Purple Pattern Luo Heaven Fruit eliminated the attribute weakness》
Seeing the data of this Longluan, Li Zhangsheng was also amazed; this was the first time he had seen someone else possess a Demon Pet with dual bloodlines of Rich level or higher.
Whether it was the Qingluan or the Yinglong, both were known for their speed, so it was no wonder the Longluan's speed was so fast.
However, because the concentration of the Yinglong bloodline was not as high as the Qingluan bloodline, coupled with the gap in quality, it was slightly inferior to Aixi.
The Xun King, Luo Chuling, had a mind to test Li Zhangsheng, driving the Longluan to rush toward the Imperial Capital at high speed.
Yet, no matter how the Longluan accelerated, Aixi easily kept pace with the Longluan.
Aixi's own speed was already faster than the Longluan's, and if the Wind Speed Characteristic were added, the advantage would naturally be even greater.
"Wind Speed Characteristic!"
Looking at the Wind Cloak on Aixi's body, Luo Chuling could not help but feel a bit envious; it was not that she had never obtained Heavenly Material and Earthly Treasure that could activate a second or even third characteristic, but the maintenance time of these Heavenly Material and Earthly Treasure in the Characteristic Space was far inferior to the Dragon Whisker Grass cultivated from the corpse of an ancestral black dragon. Being able to obtain a high-level characteristic was already considered good, and top-level characteristics were almost impossible.
Among the many Wind Element characteristics, the Wind Speed Characteristic was undoubtedly the most excellent, and it could definitely raise a Spirit Beast's combat power by a large margin.
Luo Chuling stopped testing him and began to chat casually with Li Zhangsheng.
What surprised Luo Chuling was that although she was clearly older than Li Zhangsheng, whether it was experience or knowledge, she had a feeling of being suppressed, which gave her quite a sense of frustration.
Li Zhangsheng did not feel surprised; after all, he had absorbed the memories of the Treasure King and others, and he considered himself no worse than an ordinary Double-Character King in these aspects, so crushing a King was naturally a matter of course.
However, Li Zhangsheng still held back quite a bit of strength and did not make Luo Chuling feel embarrassed; under his deliberate control, the two could be said to be chatting happily.
Not long after, the two arrived at the nearest city, preparing to use the Teleportation Array of this city; otherwise, given the vast territory of the Mucang Empire, even Aixi would need two or three hours to fly to the Imperial Capital.
After a bout of dizziness, Li Zhangsheng and Luo Chuling appeared in an exceptionally magnificent city; this was the capital of the Mucang Empire, which is to say, the Imperial Capital.
