Heaven Dou Empire Royal Palace.. o0×X×0o.. o0×X×0o.
This is more like an independent courtyard than a palace.
The ground paved with fine white jade shines with a warm light, and the mist rising from the surrounding hot springs envelopes the unreal palace. Phoenix wings are spread on the cornices carved from sandalwood, and the floating windows carved from green tiles are piled with jade on the wall panels.
The entire courtyard was surrounded by huge curtains hung with pearls, and two rows of palace maids in uniform long skirts waited respectfully outside the curtains.
Ning Rongrong put on a loose white yukata, wrapped her hair in a bath towel and sat on the white jade floor, gently stirring the hot spring with her white and delicate jade feet.
"Rongrong, what are you thinking about?" A crisp female voice came from not far away. Waves suddenly appeared on the surface of the originally calm hot spring, and a body was mostly exposed in the hot spring.
The girl's appearance and temperament are not inferior to those of Ning Rongrong, and her bright silver short hair highlights her fair skin. And this girl is also the owner of this courtyard, the princess Xue Ke of the Heaven Dou Empire.
Because of the close relationship between the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect and Heaven Dou Empire, Ning Rongrong and Xue Ke have known each other for a long time. The two are similar in age, and they soon became close friends who talked about everything.
However, because Xue Ke was born into the Heaven Dou Empire royal family, he was subject to far more restrictions than Ning Rongrong. He was rarely able to enter and leave the palace as he pleased like Ning Rongrong.
Ning Rongrong's absent-minded eyes gradually focused, and he asked Xue Ke tentatively, "Xue Ke, I have a friend. She likes someone, but that person already has a girlfriend, and there is more than one. What do you think she should do?"
"Are you sure your friend really likes that person?" Xue Ke was stunned for a moment, then brushed the wet hair from his forehead.💘😂 🌷💲
"If you really like her and he's good enough, why don't you try hard to get it? She's just a girlfriend, not married. Isn't this kind of thing very common among our Heaven Dou Empire nobles?"
Ning Rongrong's voice suddenly became a little louder, "Xue Ke, do you really think so?"
"Hmm." Xue Ke nodded, looking at Ning Rongrong who had lost all his dullness, he asked with some hesitation, "Rongrong, is the friend you are talking about... is you yourself?"
"How is that possible? I'm just happy for my friend." Ning Rongrong shook his head quickly, then took off his yukata with a smile and started playing with Xue Ke.
Three days later. Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well.
Although Sunset Forest is located in the north-central part of the mainland and is dominated by temperate coniferous forests, in summer, the branches and leaves of the trees are relatively more lush than at other times.
Especially around the valley where Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well is located, because very few Soul Beast set foot there, the height of the trees is obviously much higher.
Seeing the clearly distinguishable Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well in front of him, Tian Chen took a deep breath intoxicated. After taking Octagonal Mysterious Ice Grass and Infernal Delicate Apricot, the environment near Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well would only make him feel more comfortable.
"Grandpa is not here. It seems that he doesn't know where to look for medicinal materials." Dugu Yan walked out of the wooden house and muttered something dissatisfied.
Ye Lingling, who was standing next to Tian Chen, frowned and glanced in the direction of Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well, "Yanyan, where is the Ice Jade Scorpion that was photographed by Heaven Dou Auction House before?"
"I was swallowed by Ah Hei some time ago, and I was just about to tell you." Dugu Yan silently glared at Ah Hei who was lying not far away.
Tian Chen shook his head helplessly, "Forget it, just swallow it."
When he took the Ice Jade Scorpion at Heaven Dou Royal Auction House, it was purely out of will. It was only 1.8 million Gold Soul Coin, and it was nothing to him.
Having said this, he seemed to have thought of something again. He put his right hand on Wishful Hundred Treasure Purse, and a Soul Beast, which was golden in color and similar in size to Qian Jun Ant, was thrown to the ground.
As the saying goes, centipede insects are dead but not stiff. After a period of cultivation, the mutated Qian Jun Ant's six limbs that were broken by Tian Chen grew back again. However, when Tian Chen took it out, its joints were crushed again.
Only a pair of ferocious mouthparts were left, sending out bursts of sharp neighing at Tian Chen and others.
Dugu Yan looked at the mutated Qian Jun Ant with great interest. Having lived in Sunset Forest since she was a child, she had long been immune to the unsatisfactory-looking Soul Beast. At least she would not suffer from physical discomfort like Ye Lingling.
"Is this the mutated Qian Jun Ant you mentioned before? Judging from its size, it must have at least more than four thousand years of cultivation."
"It should have mutated after swallowing Dragon Scale Fruit, so this beast is better off." Tian Chen kicked it in front of Ah Hei, who was already salivating.
"Swallow it."
"Roar--" Ah Hei let out a low roar as if to please, and then he couldn't wait to open his big mouth and bite it, and licked it with big mouthfuls.
Chew it.
The friction between the teeth and the carapace of this Qian Jun Ant even made a crisp sound similar to the collision of metal, which is enough to show the strong defense of this mutant Qian Jun Ant.
Tian Chen once again took out Dragon Scale Fruit from Wishful Hundred Treasure Purse, which it had previously obtained from the valley in the center of Soul Hunting Forest, and pulled Ye Lingling to the shore where the hot and cold springs of Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well meet.
Generally speaking, Dragon Scale Fruit is a neutral treasure. Only the Dragon Scale Fruit that grows with the blood of the dragon Soul Beast, which has the blood of fire dragon and ice dragon, will clearly favor which side.
After all, this Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well is the burial place of Fire Dragon King and Water Dragon King.
This Dragon Scale Fruit is really rare. Tian Chen didn't want any accidents to happen. With the guidance of Mental Power, we finally found the most balanced point.
Tian Chen took out a jade shovel from Soul Tool, and then smiled sheepishly at Ye Lingling.
"Lingling, please help me cultivate it. I really can't do this kind of thing."|
"Give it to me." Ye Lingling smiled slightly, took the jade shovel from Tian Chen's hand, slightly lifted the hem of the long skirt, then squatted down and carefully peeled off a layer of soil.
Throughout the process, Tian Chen carefully felt the changes in this Dragon Scale Fruit plant. To his relief, Dragon Scale Fruit seemed to like the atmosphere here and soon began to take root here.
With his thumb nail lightly scratching his index finger, Tian Chen dropped a drop of his blood on the leaves of this Dragon Scale Fruit. His blood contains the medicinal effects of Octagonal Mysterious Ice Grass and Infernal Delicate Apricot, which is undoubtedly the best supplement for this Dragon Scale Fruit.
In the future, he only needs to use the blood of Sky Azure Bull Python for irrigation. It is only a matter of time before this Dragon Scale Fruit evolves into Ten Thousand Year Dragon Scale Fruit.
Just when Tian Chen and Ye Lingling stood up at the same time, Ah Hei gently rubbed his huge head against Tian Chen's trouser leg, and then spit out a strange bone from his mouth.
This bone is similar to a smaller version of a human's right arm bone, but the difference is that this bone is extremely slender, and the whole body is translucent and bright gold, with patterns similar to dragon scales on it, and a strange Soul Power wave is centered on it and spreads to the surroundings.
This bone is also stained with Ah Hei's saliva, but there seems to be a special film separating the two.
"That Qian Jun Ant actually exploded a piece of Soul Bone?" Tian Chen's eyes flashed with surprise, which can be regarded as an unexpected surprise.
The quality of this Soul Bone is very good. Although it is limited by the years of production of Soul Beast, its value should be similar to the ordinary Ten Thousand Year Soul Bone.
After all, this Qian Jun Ant is the rare mutation Soul Beast. Compared with Soul Bone, quality should be paid more attention to.
Of course, this Soul Bone is nothing to him.
