Chapter 630
Seeing Di Shitian appear, Old Fahai immediately introduced him.
"Fazhi of Jin Shan Monastery, greetings to the Fourth Dragon Head."
Fazhi naturally did not dare be discourteous.
Senior Xiaoyaozi gave a faint, indifferent smile and nodded, treating it as a response to Fazhi.
Fazhi had not expected the Fourth Dragon Head to be especially polite to him either. He looked around, did not spot Miss Xue Yuan, and could not help asking Di Shitian,
"Mr. Xu, might I ask where Miss Xue Yuan is?"
"Has something gone wrong with the Divine Stone?"
Di Shitian looked at the alms bowl in Fazhi's hand and noticed that the power of the Divine Stone was indeed fluctuating greatly.
"Exactly, Mr. Xu. Just now…"
Fazhi immediately recounted how Mysterious Yin Jian Chen had joined forces with Sword Prison in an attempt to seize the Divine Stone.
"I see! Miss Xue Yuan has now joined the Qinglong Society. If you wish for her to act, you must first do one thing for the Qinglong Society."
Di Shitian gave a faint smile and did not refuse Fazhi's request.
"What is it?"
Fazhi was puzzled. With such strength as the Qinglong Society possessed—not to mention anything else, just the Twelve Zodiacs alone were beyond his own ability to match.
"I heard Jin Shan Monastery has ties with the Ten Courts of Yanluo?"
Di Shitian suddenly smiled and asked.
Fazhi was stunned for a moment, then immediately said,
"What the Ten Courts of Yanluo are, this poor monk truly does not know.
This poor monk only knows there is Fengdu City, where there is a man called Marshal Meng, who has been on friendly terms with our Jin Shan Monastery for generations."
"Very good!"
Di Shitian nodded, then asked again,
"Do you know that the true essence of the Heaven-Shifting Divine Art and the World-Destroying Demonic Body can repair the Divine Stone.
But the price is very steep."
"Ah? Please Ci Sect."
The Divine Stone alms bowl in Fazhi's hand was fluctuating with tremendous energy, as if it might explode at any moment.
It turned out the two arts created by the Immortal God of Eternal Life actually possessed such a miraculous effect.
"Originally, the only ones who simultaneously possessed both the Heaven-Shifting Divine Art and the World-Destroying Demonic Body were that false god, the Demon Lord Bai Suzhen, and Xue Yuan.
Now the false god is dead, the Demon Lord Bai Suzhen is not in this realm, and moreover her true essence no longer stems from those two arts.
The only one who can now save the Divine Stone is Xue Yuan!
But the true essence of these two arts is, in fact, Xue Yuan's very life.
If the Divine Stone is to be repaired, Xue Yuan must spend at least ten years of her lifespan."
Although ten years of lifespan, for a martial artist of the supreme Mythical Realm, was but the feeling of a snap of the fingers.
But life is life!
Hearing that the price of repairing the Divine Stone was actually Xue Yuan's life,
Fazhi too was stunned for a long while.
Although he and Master and disciple Old Fahai had joined the God-Seeking Palace out of helplessness,
not everyone in the God-Seeking Palace was evil.
For instance, Xue Yuan, and God Xiao Qing.
During their days in the God-Seeking Palace, Master and disciple Old Fahai and Fazhi were in fact on very close private terms with Xue Yuan and God Xiao Qing.
If repairing the Divine Stone required Fazhi's own life, he would have agreed without a second word.
But repairing the Divine Stone required Xue Yuan's life, and he could not help hesitating.
"However, the Qinglong Society has countless treasures, and pills and treasures that increase lifespan are beyond counting."
Seeing Fazhi hesitate so, Di Shitian chuckled inwardly, then suddenly added another line.
Hearing this, Fazhi immediately understood,
"This poor monk is willing to join the Qinglong Society, and implores the Fourth Dragon Head and Mr. Xu to bestow upon me a pill that increases lifespan."
Things had been said to such a point; if Fazhi still did not understand, he probably would not have lived until today.
"Very good!"
After going around in such a big circle, the real purpose had actually been to follow Ximen Wudi's instructions and take Fazhi in.
Although neither Senior Xiaoyaozi nor Di Shitian knew why Fazhi had to be taken in,
no one dared question Ximen Wudi's orders.
Moreover, the Great Dragon Head was far-sighted and deep in strategy; many of his moves looked like idle chess pieces at the time, yet at a certain moment they turned out to be killing strikes.
Since Fazhi was so quick on the uptake and already willing to join the Qinglong Society,
Senior Xiaoyaozi immediately took out the Longevity Pill he had prepared long ago and handed it to Fazhi,
"This is a Longevity Pill, which can add one Jiazi of lifespan.
Take this pill, go with Guichen to find Miss Xue Yuan, repair the Divine Stone, and then join the Qinglong Society!"
"Fazhi thanks the Fourth Dragon Head for his great kindness."
This was not merely a pill that increased lifespan; it was a divine elixir for repairing the Divine Stone and suppressing the bottom of Xihu.
Fazhi, who pitied all sentient beings, thanked again.
Then, under Guichen's lead, he withdrew.
……
The Heavenly Dao Golden List hanging above the heavens suddenly trembled.
The next moment, countless divine radiances blazed across the world, and countless people knew another round of the Heavenly Dao Golden List was about to be revealed.
【Nine Provinces Combat Power Heavenly List - Rank 20: Bu Qian (Water God Laozu), Cultivation: mid-stage Mythical.】
【Identity: Laozu Sect of the Water Clan of Dragon Island, currently one of the Qinglong Society's honored guests.】
【Bu Qian was one of the strongest chieftains of the Water Clan a thousand years ago.】
【At that time, the Water Clan was a small tribe, living on a tiny island called Lakeheart Isle, spending their days fishing.】
【One day, a group of strange fish suddenly appeared in the central lake of Lakeheart Isle, driving away all other fish.】
【Those not driven away were devoured by the strange fish.】
【This bizarre behavior startled Bu Qian.】
【For the sake of his clan, he risked his life and dove into the lake.】
【After battling countless strange fish, he accidentally discovered a sleeping divine dragon at the lake's bottom.】
【Moreover, as the divine dragon wished to be worshipped by the Water Clan, it deliberately allowed Bu Qian to pierce one of its dragon scales.】
【Under the torrent of dragon blood that followed, Bu Qian's arms became a pair of dragon arms, and he gained mastery over the true essence of water control.】
【After emerging from the lake, he used his true essence of water control to create the Divine Water Technique.】
【With his invincible dragon arms, he rose among the world's strongest.】
【But he remained merely a puppet of the divine dragon.】
【The divine dragon's original intent was to have the Water Clan worship it, so that when it was about to transform and ascend to heaven,】
【it would devour the entire Water Clan, including Bu Qian.】
【Unfortunately, the divine dragon was slaughtered by Bu Jingyun and seven martial experts in alliance.】
【Bu Qian's strength was severely affected.】
【Fortunately, Bu Qian had previously accepted Zhang Sanfeng's invitation and joined the Qinglong Society.】
【In recent days, under Zhang Sanfeng's guidance, he completed numerous Qinglong Society missions and amassed vast mission points.】
【Now, he has discovered a more suitable cultivation technique in the Qinglong Society's Technique Pavilion.】
【Zhang Sanfeng also helped him exchange for a divine pill at the Pill Tower.】
【Given time, once Bu Qian assimilates his gains and eliminates the hazards left by the divine dragon's death,】
【his strength will soar beyond measure.】
【Heavenly Dao Evaluation: He who understands the times is a hero; joining the Qinglong Society early was Bu Qian's best choice.】
【Heavenly Dao Reward: Divine Dragon's Body】
