447 I Am an Open and Above Board Person! (1/2)
There were many eccentric and strange people in Kunlun Sect.
As the most powerful ancient sect in the entire Nine Regions, Kunlun Sect was one of the most mysterious places. The sect was hidden in the cloud, aloof from Nine Regions. The methods inherited in the sect were ancient. Among which, there was no lack of mystery. Oftentimes, things that were taught to their disciples were unconventional, such as Zhou Mumu who was actually very different, unlike Yue Ziqing and the others who were more in line with the image of the people of Kunlun Sect.
However, Wang Lu's horizon had been opened today as he saw what was truly a strange thing!
”... In other words, as long as I eat this mushroom, my body could grow hundreds of times in an instant like a giant in the great desolation age?
”Hehe, if your cultivation base is of the level of Supreme, you might be like those prehistoric giants. But, when the time comes, my A Da would be less effective.”
”... Please stop mentioning A Da again.”
”In short, although it can't turn you into a giant from the great desolation age, at the critical moment, it could save your life.”
”Um, then I would be impolite to refuse it… If in the future I have the opportunity to enter the demon world and explore the truth of the past, I will come back and paraphrase it for you.”
South Pole Immortal Weng said, ”The truth of the past is not important. What is more important is for you to explore the path to the future.”
Upon hearing this, Wang Lu inwardly turned cold. Could it be that South Pole Immortal Weng knew that I had come into contact with an ancient earth immortal in the group of immortal tombs?
Unfortunately, no matter how Wang Lu inquired further, South Pole Immortal Weng remained silent, completely turning into a rock.
Wang Lu sighed and then patted the face of the rock, only to make himself wet with moss. Seeing that South Pole Immortal Weng didn't give any reaction at all, just like a dead person, his mind was moved, and he began to grope the surface of the rock.
He was groping for more mushrooms.
Able to turn a person into a giant, and at the same time increasing the strength which could save his life at a critical moment… Was this a f*cking divine object or not! And there were at least hundreds of such a divine object on the body of South Pole Immortal Weng! And for some inexplicable reason, South Pole Immortal Weng actually remained silent!
But then, Wang Lu understood, because he recalled the story of a certain sage1. When that sage was still young, he studied under a tutelage of a master, but the master hit him in the head three times. As a result, at midnight he slipped into his master's bedroom and received the personally handed down teachings from his master. Ever so often, people should pay attention to tacit understanding.
How could he let go of this opportunity to make a fortune?
”One, two, three…” Wang Lu calmly counted as he plucked the mushroom from the surface of the rock. To be sure, he still wrapped his fingertips with his sword qi… Fortunately, South Pole Immortal Weng didn't put any prohibition spell. Thus, Wang Lu easily plucked dozens of mushrooms.
”Tsk, that's enough playing little girl plucking mushrooms. You need to hurry up. Go…” He muttered to himself.
When he turned his head, he saw that Zhou Mumu had long disappeared without a trace.
It seemed that South Pole Immortal Weng didn't want their dialogue to be heard by Zhou Mumu. However, if she was here, she would've surely stopped him from picking up the mushrooms. But since she was not...
Wang Lu simply took the book that looked suspicious from the bookshelf.
In a sense, Zhan Ziye was right. These antiques of Kunlun really knew how to waste precious resources recklessly. For several millennia, no one could think of another way. That being the case, he might as well take this book that was fated with him. Of course, the book that he took included a certain mouth that could not be shut. Since creatures could not be put in a mustard seed bag, for the sake of secrecy, Wang Lu put it in his bosom.
”Oh, I am so close to master that I can sense your smell. I am so happy that I want to pass out!”
”...” Wang Lu sighed, tore that page from the book and then place it under his foot.
”Master, I seem to smell the blood of human!”
Wang Lu was just stepping on the blood that had been previously left behind by Ning Mou, and the others.
”Master is indeed Master, you're actually so quick to carry out the brutal revenge on humanity. Although I can't see it, I can smell that the blood is filled with resentment and hate. Before they died, they must have suffered brutal torture!”
”...”
”Master, do you have a crusty human flesh for me to taste? I haven't tasted the flesh and blood of human cultivators for thousands of years.”
Wang Lu thought for a moment, and then took a piece of dog meat from his mustard seed bag and dropped it on the floor.
”Oh, after thousands of years, the taste of human flesh has become more tender! I feel like I am brimming with power!”
… It seemed like there were reasons for humans to be able to make a comeback in the two great wars of immortal and demon despite the fact that the overall strength of the demon race was more dominant.
”After I release your seal, I want you to contact the flash demon. I want them to open a channel for me, and then bring some friends back.”
”No problem at all! Ah, it's been a long time that I haven't breathed the air of the demon world that I almost forgot its taste!...” With that, that howling demon actually paused, and then a trace of sorrow spread from the sole of Wang Lu's foot.
Wang Lu asked, ”What's wrong? Do you miss your home?”
”No, I was just thinking, I am so stupid like this, could master possibly not want me?”
”...”
”But I'm very useful! Doesn't master want to contact the flash demon? I'll help you find them!”
Just as it finished, a violent shock came from under his foot, then a seemingly invisible ripple spread to the distance from under the sole of his foot.
… Was this the roar ability of the howling demon which could directly connect with the demon world?
Tsk, previously, the demon race could turn Nine Regions upside down twice, so they indeed have some abilities. Luckily, they could be easily amused, which allowed the human to have the chance for a comeback.
