Mind Cultivation Record

Chapter 1,332 Crystal Palace

Three days later, Xiao Mianhe returned to the sea and boarded the huge ship.

Originally, the identity of the two persons was unknown, so they could not pass the verification smoothly.

Thanks to the mediation of the fourth-level little carp spirit, the two of them were able to board the ship as tourists.

Of course, Xiao Mian did not treat the little demon badly.

After all, after arriving in Lingyangze, there are still many places where we need to use each other.

The ship left Sulfur Island and headed east, speeding on the sea.

To be honest, this seagoing ship is also quite special.

The entire sea liner is extremely huge, but it is made from the skeleton of an unknown giant fish. Although it cannot fly into the sky and escape from the earth, it can travel thousands of miles a day on the sea.

Besides, Lingyangze is hundreds of thousands of miles away from Lianyun Island. If the ship runs at full power, the speed will be extremely fast. However, the purpose of the ship going out to sea is to do business on islands such as Lioyun Island. Along the way, it is inevitable that Sometimes walking, sometimes stopping, sometimes fast, sometimes slow.

Therefore, after walking for more than a month, Hailun arrived at the boundary of Lingyang Ze.

Gradually, the speed of the sea ship slowed down...

According to the little demon's explanation, Lingyang Ze is not far away.

Gradually, more and more large and small reefs appeared on the originally vast blue sea - some protruding from the sea surface, while more were hidden under the sea surface.

By the end, larger and larger rocks were rising one after another.

Looking around, the sea ahead seems to be smashed by huge rocks...

This is Lingyangze!

Lingyang Lake has a radius of thousands of miles, there are rocks in the sea, and there is the sea in the rocks.

The deepest part of Lingyang Ze is the palace of King Ran Yi.

The sea ship did not go too far into Lingyang Ze. After traveling more than a thousand miles, it stopped moving forward. After filling the cargo, the sea ship would continue its voyage.

Under the control of the Wuxiang inner demon, Xiao Yao and Xiao Mian got off the ship.

After that, Yi Yao and the two people changed to a smaller sea boat and sped towards the central area of ​​​​Lingyang Ze.

At dusk that night, they set foot on a piece of land in the center of Lingyang Ze.

This piece of land alone is thousands of miles in diameter and can be called a continent within the sea.

With the little demon as their guide, the two easily found their destination.

Xiao Mian thought, and the little demon told everything it knew.

When it comes to selling human flesh, Xiaoyao is just the lowest-end salesperson.

Above the little demons, there are many middle demons and even big demons who participate in and control the entire human flesh production line. The biggest black hand behind the scenes is probably King Ran Yi!

Although the little demon tells everything he knows, his knowledge is limited.

The only valuable clue is that the little demon is online. He is a fish demon at the peak of the sixth level. He has some connections in Lingyang Ze, so he can participate.

With a thought in his mind, the little demon narrowed his eyes and fell asleep.

Xiao Mian and Gui Hai discussed it and decided to meet the sixth-order fish monster the next day.

Early the next morning, after sending away the confused little demon, the two of them walked out of their residence and bathed in the bright sunshine of Lingyang Ze.

If Lioyun Island can still be considered a place where humans and monsters live together, and some architectural styles are unique to humans, Lingyang Ze is already a world of monsters through and through.

Looking around, there are all strange shapes that humans cannot understand.

The most numerous of them are huge towering stone pillars.

The two of them didn't care, and followed the clues provided by the little demon.

Not long after, they came to a cliff that looked like a cliff.

This was another giant stone pillar, flying in the air. After climbing on the stone pillar, the two of them saw that the entire stone pillar was thousands of feet high and about 10 miles in diameter.

The entire surface of the stone pillar was covered with a mysterious liquid that was completely integrated.

Under the sunlight, the light blue liquid exuded a gleaming brilliance.

It was as if a water-colored mushroom crown had grown on the stone pillar, and it couldn't help but tremble.

Through the color of the water, you can see a crystal palace standing in the center of the stone pillars.

In front of the Crystal Palace, stood a pair of shrimp soldiers and crab generals, both of which were fourth-level monsters.

Without Xiao Mian's signal, Gui Hai on the side just let out a little bit of his demonic aura, and the pair of shrimp soldiers and crab generals suddenly woke up and looked at the two of them suspiciously.

"A distinguished guest is here, why don't you let Ran Qing come out to greet you!"

Ran Qing!

This is the clue that Xiao Mian got from the little demon.

Besides, that shrimp soldier and crab general was able to be recruited to visit the home and guard the hospital. He already had some eyesight. Seeing the extraordinary momentum of the two people and calling them "Ran Qing", how could he dare to act rashly?

Leaving the crab general to continue guarding the gate, the shrimp soldiers rushed into the Crystal Palace.

Within a moment, a group of figures flew out from the Crystal Palace.

"Which fellow Taoist is here to visit? Please forgive Ran Qing for not being able to welcome him from afar!"

As he spoke, the figure had already rushed out of the Crystal Palace, but it did not break the barrier.

Reflected by the color of the water, it was clearly an overly big fish - a fat-headed fish!

At the same time, Xiao Mian was also observing Ran Qing.

According to the previous information from the little demon, Ran Qing was a sixth-order fat-headed fish demon. Now comparing the two, Xiao Mian's suspicions were more and more confirmed.

As early as Xiao Mian heard about Ran Qing's background, he had secretly kept an eye on it.

Without saying anything at the moment, Xiao Mian took out something and shined it in the air.

Under the sunlight, a ball of colorful light shone from Xiao Mian's palm.

Na Ran Qing was stunned and thoughtful.

At this moment, Xiao Mian spoke.

"Do you know Ran Jiu, fellow Taoist?"

"Ran!?" His whole body trembled. Ran Qing's gaze suddenly trembled as he stared at the colorful rainbow. He turned to stare at Xiao Mian and said decisively: "Your Excellency! Please come inside!"

As he spoke, he saw the fat-headed fish monster spit out a water-colored orb from its huge fish mouth. The orb was filled with water and light, and the water-colored barrier protecting the Crystal Palace broke open.

When Xiao Mian saw it, he didn't care and took Guihai into the Crystal Palace.

In the Crystal Palace, Ran Qing entertained the two of them absentmindedly.

After hesitating for a long time, Ran Qing finally couldn't hold it any longer.

"I'll tell you the truth, fellow Taoist! Ran Jiu is my brother! But as far as I know, my brother Yu left the East China Sea a long time ago and is missing. How did you find him?"

"It's a long story..."

Now that the bait has been thrown out, Xiao Mian is not afraid that Ran Qing will not take the bait.

At the moment, Xiao Mian came and briefly described what happened that year.

More than ten years ago, by the Huangtian River.

Xiao Mian saw the dying Ran Jiu. For the sake of being of the same lineage as the East Sea Monster, Xiao Mian agreed to help Ran Jiu bring something back to Lingyang Ze of the East China Sea.

That thing was the colorful scale armor that Xiao Mian got from Ran Ju that day!

As he spoke, Xiao Mian sent the piece of colorful scale armor to Ran Qing.

"Fellow Taoist! I have completed what you were asked to do back then, and now I'm leaving!"

"This...fellow Taoist has done a great favor to my brother and returned this thing to me. No matter what, he should stay in my Crystal Palace for a few more days, so that I can give him my best!"

"No need! The reason why my brothers and I borrowed Lingyang Ze is because we were entrusted with it when we came here. Now that the property has returned to its original owner, we have to leave Lingyang Ze!"

"Wait a minute!" Standing in front of Xiao Mian, Ran Qing's eyes rolled around, and he said with some urgency: "You two have great righteousness, Ran Qing Gan Ming Wu Nei! Let's do this! Give me one night, and I'll prepare some pearl coins. I want to express my feelings, and I hope you two fellow Taoists won’t refuse!”

"This..., okay! My two brothers will spend one night in your mansion!"

After a little hesitation, Xiao Mian agreed to Ran Qing's kind invitation.

After instructing the maid in the palace to send the two of them to the wing, Ran Qing held the colorful scale armor in his hand with an uncertain look on his face.

As Ran Jiu's younger brother, although Ran Qing didn't know what treasures were stored in the colorful scales, he did know the origin of the colorful scales.

This thing is an important treasure given by King Ran Yi himself.

The reason is for Ran to take it to Zhongzhou and trade it with human monks.

Unexpectedly, after wandering around, Ran died in Zhongzhou, and the important treasure fell into his hands.

What Ran Qing was planning now was how to keep this valuable treasure in his pocket.

It's just that Ran Qing was limited by his own cultivation, and he couldn't even condense his spiritual consciousness. It was naturally impossible to open the colorful scales.

For the current plan, there are two paths before Ran Qing:

First, wait for yourself to gather your spiritual consciousness or even the demon baby, and then open the scales.

Second, find a helper that you can absolutely trust to help you open the scales.

The road is certainly safer.

However, his family knows his own affairs, and Ran Qing's qualifications are even worse than Ran's. He has been stuck at the level of a sixth-order monster until now, and cannot break through at all.

I'm afraid that even in his lifetime, Ran Qing will not be able to make any further progress.

Thinking more deeply, maybe there is a treasure in the colorful scales that can help him break through smoothly?

As for the second way, it’s not like Ran Qing doesn’t have a suitable candidate.

That is his upline - Ran Min, one of the eight great demon generals under Ran Yi's throne and a seventh-level transformed demon who has passed through the catastrophe of transformation - Ran Min!

Ran Min, possessing divine consciousness and a demon baby, must be able to open the colorful scale armor. He and Ran Qing are also close to each other on weekdays. More importantly, they have business dealings with each other.

Some of Ran Min's information fell into Ran Qing's hands.

Besides, the two people who presented the colorful scale armor were not something Ran Qing could handle!

Ran Qing, who thought he could restrain Ran Min, decisively extended an olive branch to Ran Min after confirming that he could not swallow the colorful scales alone.

That night, Ran Min came to Ran Qing's Crystal Palace alone.

These two monsters often get together on weekdays, having fun and enjoying themselves.

But this time, Ran Qing did not warmly entertain Ran Min.

On the table between the two of them, there was the colorful scale armor placed alone!

As one of the eight demon generals directly under the throne of Ran Yi, Ran Min naturally knows very well about this piece of colorful scale armor. Some of the supplies are handled by Ran Min single-handedly. Therefore, when he first saw this piece of colorful scale armor, he , Ran Min couldn't help but look excited.

"Why is this thing here? Could it be that brother Ranju is back?"

"My poor brother may never come back!"

At that moment, Ran Qing told everything Xiao Mian had said to fool him.

After listening to Ran Qing's words, Ran Min frowned and fell into silence.

"Brother Ran Qing! We have been friends for a lifetime! This matter is of great importance. What do you mean by calling me here tonight?"

"How dare you, Ran Qing! Call you brother! How much is this thing worth? I should know better than me, right? In the entire Lingyang Ze, who would have thought that it could be lost and recovered?"

"The two people who returned this thing to you..."

"They are in my Crystal Palace!"

"..., how strong is it?"

"According to my observation, one of them seems to have condensed his spiritual consciousness, but he has definitely not passed through the catastrophe of transformation. As for the other person, he has not even condensed his spiritual consciousness!"

"..."

"Brother! As long as these two people are left, who knows what will happen tonight?" Seeing Ran Min lost in thought, Ran Qing repeatedly said: "Brother, you can open these seven-color scales at that time. Divide the accounts, you and I, and I guarantee that no one knows about the gods or ghosts!”

"……,good!"

"Brother, I will lure those two people here right now, and we two brothers will act according to the opportunity!"

Thinking that he had laid a trap, Ran Qing sent someone to invite Xiao Mian and the others.

Besides, Xiao Mian had already planned out Ran Qing's countermeasures for him before entering the Crystal Palace. Xiao Mian knew exactly how Ran Qing would respond.

If Ran Qing allowed the two of them to leave, Xiao Mian would have to go through a lot of trouble.

Now they are forced to stay for one night. If they don't take action tonight, when will they stay?

Soon after, Xiao Mian and Gui Hai met Ran Qing and Ran Min.

Ran Qing just paid it back. After all, Ran Min was a seventh-level demon that had already transformed.

With a slight expansion of his consciousness, Ran Min discovered that the cultivation levels of Xiao Mian and the two were indeed as Ran Qing said, one was at the peak of the sixth level, and the other was only at the sixth level.

As a result, Ran Min felt confident and even made other plans...

The ferocious light in his eyes soared, and Ran Min was no longer in the mood to act for fun!

But it was Ran Qing who had an extra eye.

"Two fellow Taoists! This is one of the eight great demon generals under my throne, Ran Yi, Senior Ran Min! Senior Ran Min is here tonight to teach me how to cultivate. Do you two fellow Taoists want to watch? Maybe, There will be some unexpected gains! To be honest with you two Taoists! I, Ran Qing, have managed to save three things in my life. This Crystal Palace is one of them, and the second one is what I am proud of - —Zilao Dojo!”

After saying this, Ran Qing almost pulled the two of them to a huge snail shell.

After entering the so-called Zhiluo Taoist Temple, Ran Qing was determined.

"I'm not afraid to tell the truth to my two Taoist friends. This Zhiluo Dojo is the ultimate competition arena in the realm of Yuanying. Even if the ancestor of Yuanying is trapped in it, he can't get out without my natal talisman, Ran Qing." , fighting in it, it is impossible for outsiders to detect it!”

Ran Qing's words seemed to be meant for Xiao Mian and the other two, but in fact they were also meant for Ran Min - that means: Ran Min, you'd better not kill me, the master, by mistake!

Xiao Mian and the two were fine, but Ran Min got angry for no reason and showed her fierce look.

"Hmph! Why are you talking so much nonsense? You two deserve to die today!"

After saying this, Ran Min targeted Gui Hai, who in his eyes had a higher level of cultivation, and attacked.

Ran Min's true form is a sixth-level fire koi.

The Fire Koi is a very weird fish monster.

Most ordinary water monsters are born with water attributes. Occasionally they mutate into wind or ice attributes, but water monsters with earth and fire attributes are rarely born.

This fire koi, just by its name, is a fire-attributed water demon.

Thanks to Ran Min's chance, he actually got a large amount of the inverse Five Elements spiritual material - Water in Fire - Extreme Flame Stream!

Relying on the heaven-defying effect of the Extreme Flame Stream, Ran Min was able to practice both water and fire.

Precisely because of this, Ran Min actually broke through the sixth-level destiny of the Agni Fire Koi, successfully survived the catastrophe of transformation, and became a seventh-level transformed demon.

Now when he took action, in order to achieve a quick victory, Ran Min used his natal demon soldiers.
