C514 Qilin Territory
C514 Qilin Territory
This was the most mysterious and sacred place in the Beast Clan. It was where the Beast Kings and the members of the Imperial Family resided. The miscellaneous Spirit Beasts were not qualified to enter.
Now that he heard that he had been summoned in, how could he not be excited?
For a moment, the way the Earth Flame Tiger looked at Ling Xiao changed greatly.
The two of them descended and the Earth Flame Tiger brought Ling Xiao into the dense forest.
Ling Xiao felt that the situation here was similar to the situation in Flame Valley.
It was just that the situation here was much worse than Flame Valley.
Thick flames were burning all over the place. Although these flames were not as ferocious as the high-grade flames, they were much more terrifying than ordinary flames.
If ordinary alchemists were able to collect some of the fire seeds here, it would be sufficient for them to enjoy it for the rest of their lives.
Fortunately, Ling Xiao had the protection of the heavenly fire. Otherwise, he would have been able to withstand the high temperature of the air here.
Looking at the fire-type medicinal Tree Spirits in the surroundings, Ling Xiao was tongue-tied.
These were all good things above the Fifth Sixth Rank realm, and there were even quite a few that had already reached the Seventh Order.
"Burning Lotus Flower!" Ling Xiao shouted. Ling Xiao unintentionally saw a fire-colored spiritual flower.
This spiritual flower was very special. Its petals were swaying like flames. It was vivid and lifelike. Anyone who looked at it would be deeply attracted.
Even the Earth Flame Tiger by the side was attracted by that spiritual flower. The thick desire in its eyes was not concealed at all.
This was a Tier 8 fire attribute spirit flower!
This kind of Tier 8 spiritual flower could already be considered a rare top-grade item in the world. To any fire-attribute person or medicinal Spirit Beast, it was filled with the temptation of life.
Ling Xiao suppressed his urge. Following the medicinal Earth Flame Tiger, they passed through several mountain peaks and arrived in the middle of a basin.
"Could it be here?" Ling Xiao looked around but did not find anything special about this basin.
However, when he and the Earth Flame Tiger stepped into the center of the place, a ray of light bloomed.
By the time Ling Xiao reacted, he found that he had already arrived in another world.
This world made Ling Xiao freeze on the spot.
This was definitely the most beautiful paradise he had ever seen in his life.
The spiritual mountain was ethereal, and it looked very handsome. The verdant and lush trees swayed gently in the wind, as if they were nodding their heads to welcome guests. Numerous medicinal Spirit Birds were playing and playing in the air, and they seemed to be at peace with the world, and they seemed to be at ease and content with themselves. The waterfall that hung upside down let out the sounds of impact, bringing endless motivation and source to the tiny stream. The spiritual herbs and spiritual flowers on both sides of the stream gave off a fresh smell that made people unable to restrain themselves from taking a deep breath.
Not far away, a thatched cottage looked very simple and crude, but it gave people a sense of natural and quiet beauty that separated this place from the rest of the world.
Ling Xiao could not think straight.
"This is the Divine Beast Qilin's territory?" Ling Xiao was full of doubts in his heart.
"Welcome, honored guest." A kind old man who looked like a neighbor suddenly appeared in front of Ling Xiao and Earth Flame Tiger and said with a faint smile.
Earth Flame Tiger's body trembled, and he immediately knelt down and greeted the old man respectfully, "Greetings, Elder Huo Sha!
"Elder Huo Ding!" Ling Xiao almost burst out laughing in his heart. This old man actually called such a name. He really had a personality!
However, he still resisted the urge to bow to the old man. "Greetings, old man!
"Haha, not bad, not bad. I haven't seen you for a few years. Your strength has advanced very quickly!" The old man smiled and praised Ling Xiao.
"Have you seen me before, old man?" Ling Xiao was confused.
He had no impression of this old man.
"That's not important. What's important is that you can come here." The old man kept him in suspense. Then, he made a gesture and said, "Let's go. Come to my Han residence and have a seat.
Ling Xiao nodded. He could only follow the old man. The Earth Flame Tiger followed behind them respectfully.
The thatched cottage built from a thousand year old bamboo seemed very quiet and quiet. The simple decorations seemed very elegant.
Looking at the ordinary tea and fruits placed on the table, Ling Xiao had the urge to cry.
Why did he feel like he had returned to a commoner's home?
Wasn't this the territory of a Beast King? What should be placed in front of him should be top-grade nectar and high-grade spirit fruits. How could it be such an ordinary thing?
The elder poured a cup of tea for Ling Xiao and said, "Please have some tea!
Ling Xiao did not stand on ceremony. He picked up the cup of tea and drank it. Anyway, he was in the clouds and could not figure out the situation. Let nature take its course!
When the tea flowed into his internal organs, Ling Xiao felt a sense of comfort. The nervousness and fatigue in his body immediately disappeared.
He couldn't help but exclaim, "What a good tea!
The old man stroked his beard with satisfaction and said with a faint smile, "As long as you like it.
Ling Xiao could not help but pour another cup himself, but... When he drank it again, he no longer had that feeling.
"Just drink a cup of Clear Heart Tea every day, it's useless to drink more." The old man laughed.
Ling Xiao put down the teacup with an awkward smile. Then he said, "I'm here for Zaizai. I wonder if I can meet him.
"Zaizai's name is not bad. I remember you used to call him Black Sheep." The old man said.
Ling Xiao laughed dryly. That's just a joke... just a joke!
What a joke. He was willing to call it that in front of the Black Sheep's elders. Even if he did not die, he would still have to shed a layer of skin!
However, he really couldn't understand that this old man seemed to know everything about him.
"I feel that you gave this name. That little fellow is indeed a Black Sheep!" The old man replied unexpectedly.
Ling Xiao was a little stunned, but he did not respond.
"Before he sees you, I have some things to say to you," the old man said with a serious expression.
"Go ahead," Ling Xiao said.
"My Qilin God Race has existed since the beginning of the world. We once dominated a region and formed a nine-legged cauldron with the other God Race. " Later on, with the rise of the various races, our Nine Great God Race's status was seriously challenged. The world began to fall into conflict. At that time, your human ancestors were still very weak. But later on, you humans gradually became stronger. In the end, you became the dominant force in this world, while our Gods gradually declined due to years of strife. This caused the bloodlines of the races to wither and almost lose their inheritance. "The old man faintly said. He paused for a moment and took a sip of tea before saying, "Because of this, the god race withdrew from the world to recuperate and strive to restore their prosperity as soon as possible. The Qilin God Race's ability to reproduce saliva is too poor, so after hundreds of thousands of years of recuperation, our lives are much worse compared to the other god races.
When the old man said these words, his expression was somewhat lonely.
Ling Xiao was very puzzled. He really did not know what the use of this old man saying these things to him was.
"In order to make our clan stronger again, we have placed all our hopes on Zaizai. He is the future emperor of our clan." The old man emphasized.
"Yes, I believe that Zaizai has the ability." Ling Xiao nodded and replied. He recalled the battle between the Black Sheep and the Yin Wind Beast back then. The tough character of the Black Sheep was still fresh in his mind.
"Even though that's the case, it's still not enough to rely on himself." The old man turned his head and said.
"Then what countermeasures do you have, old man?" Ling Xiao followed the old man's words and asked.
The old man said, "There are five major families in the Qilin Race. They are the Metal, Wood, Water, Fire and Earth Race. The five families have been coaxing us before we retired. The five families have been separated a long time ago. If the five families are united again, our Qilin Race will not be any worse than the other God Race.
"You want Zaizai to be the emperor of the five major families?" Ling Xiao immediately understood what the old man meant when he heard what the old man said.
The old man smiled with satisfaction. "It's easy to talk to you humans. That's right, that's the truth.
"Zaizai's responsibility is not light! Can I meet him now? " Ling Xiao sighed and asked.
"Of course, but you must promise me one thing before meeting him," the old man said.
"Tell me, as long as I can do it, I will not decline," Ling Xiao replied.
"Very straightforward. I know that you and Zaizai have a special relationship. This time, I will allow Zaizai to go out with you, but you must help Zaizai accomplish the great task of unifying my Qilin Race," the old man said as he slapped his leg.
Ling Xiao's face turned green when he heard this.
The Qilin Clan was full of Divine Beasts. Which Qilin had extraordinary combat strength? What right did he have to participate in the internal strife?
However, for the sake of his good brother, he could only brace himself and say, "This junior's strength is low. I'm afraid that I don't have enough strength in mind!
"You don't need to worry about this. Since it is someone chosen by our clan's prince, then you have the qualifications to do this." The old man said in a very refuting manner.
"I can promise you this, but I can't guarantee that I can do it. When the time comes, you can't blame me!" Ling Xiao said that first.
"Of course. If you can help Zaizai do this, you will be a true friend of the Qilin Race in the future. No matter what difficulties you encounter, the Qilin Race will stand on your side," the old man promised.
Hearing this, Ling Xiao became excited.
If he could get help from the Qilin Race, it would be no problem for him to conquer the world.
Thinking of this, Ling Xiao's heart flew.
"Alright, I will bring you to see Zaizai now. I believe he will be very happy to know that you are here." The old man said.
Ling Xiao nodded and followed the old man out.
When Ling Xiao reached the outhouse, the old man grabbed his hand.
Before he could understand what the old man was trying to do, he arrived at another place.
Looking at the deep sea of fire in front of him, Ling Xiao felt like he had arrived at the eighteenth level of hell.
This place was like the end of the world. There was lava everywhere, and the temperature was frighteningly high.
The desire to rush out of the Demon Spirit Blue Fire Bead in Ling Xiao's sea of consciousness was getting stronger and stronger.
Ling Xiao clearly felt that the flames here were even more terrifying than the earth-step fire Brown Nether Fires he had seen before.
