The Killing God Actually Called Himself Kind and Approachable
Upon hearing this, Wu Ciren was now completely certain that Lu Qing'an had come for the crystal.
"To be honest, fellow Daoist, I obtained this crystal by chance. It was probably over ten thousand years ago when this crystal sank down from above and landed at the bottom of the abyss. I noticed its unusual nature and kept it," Wu Ciren said.
Hundreds of thousands of years ago?
Could it be that when the Divine Crossing Flying Ship crashed, a piece of the Divine Crystal fell here?
There is still a certain probability of that happening.
Lu Qing'an glanced at the Divine Crystal in Wu Ciren's hand. This egg-sized Divine Crystal had not yet been activated, so it seemed that Wu Ciren did not know how to use Divine Crystal.
"Fellow Daoist, let me ask you a question: In all these years, have you ever seen a Black Dragon?"
Little Blackie should be able to sense that there is a Divine Crystal inside.
As for whether Little Blackie has the ability to reach this depth and find the Divine Crystal, he couldn't be sure.
"Black Dragon? Never seen it before." Wu Ciren shook his head.
Lu Qing'an responded with an "oh," assuming that Little Blackie probably knew there were Divine Crystal inside, but couldn't come down to steal Divine Crystal.
"I didn't come here to ask you for this kind of crystal," Lu Qing'an stated his purpose, pointing directly to the Primordial Heart-Returning Vine in the herb field, "I saw you had Primordial Heart-Returning Vine here last time, and I happen to need it for alchemy, so I came here."
Upon hearing this, Wu Ciren froze on the spot.
Ah?!
It's not because of this crystal?!
"However, I'm a little curious as to why you think I came here because of this crystal. I suppose you already know the purpose of these crystals?" Lu Qing'an looked at Wu Ciren with a half-smile.
Wu Ciren's lips twitched again.
You actually came because of the Primordial Heart-Returning Vine?!
Ah!!
Then I would have misunderstood!
I even took this thing out!!
She suddenly felt like a clown. In fact, if she were given another chance, and didn't know why Lu Qing'an had come, she would have taken out the crystal as well.
After all, survival is the most important thing.
Well, since I've already taken it out, I might as well just confess honestly, lest I accidentally lose my life.
"Fellow Daoist, to be honest, although I am here, I have also been building a small intelligence organization outside over the years, and I occasionally take the time to learn about the situation outside. I only just heard about what happened at the Saber Alliance not long ago, and I also know that the outside world has changed a bit. If I'm not mistaken, it should be related to these crystals that seem to come from beyond the realm..."
Wu Ciren was very frank and explained his situation.
She was afraid that Lu Qing'an would think she was hiding something and would eventually kill her.
Having lived this long, I can't afford to lose my life over something trivial!
Hey!
It's really tragic, how did such a freak emerge in this era!
So strong it's impossible to resist!!!
Upon hearing this, Lu Qing'an laughed and said, "I didn't expect you to be so knowledgeable about the outside world while living in seclusion here. I underestimated you before. You can keep this crystal; I don't need it. My main purpose in coming here is for the Primordial Heart-Returning Vine."
Upon hearing this, Wu Ciren's eyes lit up, and he quickly said, "I don't need the Primordial Heart-Returning Vine; I just grow it for fun! If you need it, take it!"
She decided to keep the crystal safe.
If this crystal can truly enhance one's abilities, then it is indeed a powerful treasure!
I just don't know how to use it.
Lu Qing'an laughed and said, "That's not good."
"Fellow Daoist, please don't stand on ceremony with me! I'll go pick them for you right away!" Wu Ciren flew off in that direction.
"Fellow Daoist! Here you go!"
"Haha, I took a high-grade magic herb from you last time, and I'll do the same this time. I don't have anything to give you, so how about this: I'll give you a great fortune. What do you say?"
Wu Ciren swallowed hard.
good fortune?
real??
"Fellow Daoist, I don't crave any great fortune. I only wish to live in seclusion here and cultivate diligently..." She knew that greed would lead one into danger, and at this moment, she absolutely dared not show any desire to Lu Qing'an.
Lu Qing'an had his own principles, and at this moment, regardless of Wu Ciren's refusal, he directly took the Divine Crystal from Wu Ciren's hand, silently recited the Mnemonic, and activated it.
"Alright, just refine it directly into your Dantian. My purpose has been achieved, farewell."
Before leaving, he took one last look at the other potions in Wu Ciren's potion field. If he needed any high-level potions again and they happened to be available here, he would come back again.
Wu Ciren followed Lu Qing'an's gaze and glanced at the magic medicine field. At that moment, she really wanted to scold herself.
I should have known better than to plant these potions!
Lu Qing'an: "By the way, fellow Daoist, I'm not sure if you're fully aware of the situation outside. The Demon Domain is becoming increasingly turbulent, with many people secretly growing stronger. I think that one day, the Demon Nether Cultivation-Devouring Abyss will likely welcome some extremely powerful individuals who, like me, don't care much about losing their cultivation. And others may not be as kind and approachable as I am."
Upon hearing Lu Qing'an's words, Wu Ciren's lips twitched again.
Good heavens!
A killing machine claims to be kind and approachable!
This is truly unprecedented!!
However, Lu Qing'an's words were not without merit.
"Alright, fellow Daoist, take care of yourself. Farewell, let's meet again another day." Lu Qing'an waved goodbye, flew out of the formation, and then flew upwards at full speed, turning into a stream of light and disappearing in the blink of an eye.
Wu Ciren only breathed a sigh of relief after watching Lu Qing'an walk away.
Finally, we've sent that killer away!!
Ah, I hope we never see each other again!!
After Lu Qing'an left, she returned to the pagoda, and with a thought, took out the Divine Crystal.
"Is it really used as he said?"
She thought about it and decided to give it a try.
She wasn't afraid that Lu Qing'an was lying to her. If Lu Qing'an wanted to kill her or do something else, he would just do it directly; there was no need for him to lie to her.
After all, she had no power to resist Lu Qing'an!
"Refine it into your Dantian? Come on!"
After pondering for a while, she gritted her teeth, made a decision, and began refining.
A quarter of an hour later, her cultivation aura suddenly surged.
"This!!! It's really true!!!"
She carefully examined her own cultivation level and found that the breakthrough she had made was more than she had achieved in millions of years of cultivation!
"This thing! It's terrifying?!"
If other powerful figures from the Demon Domain outside obtain a lot of these items, then her continued seclusion here isn't a long-term solution!
"Am I really about to be born??"
The thought of the outside world made her shrink back.
The greatest advantage of my Emperor Position is my endless lifespan; if I were to leave, this advantage would be nonexistent!
"Unless, the Eternal Night Demon Emperor protects me..."
