Chapter 207: Xiao Lu Ride Me! I'm Super Fast!
The sunlight shines through the dense trees, and the ground sparkles like broken gold.
Lu Zhan and Que Que leaned against the tree, stroking their chins, and stared at the little Pegasus silently.
It is extremely important to learn a foreign language. Lu Zhan could not understand Yingyingma's words, nor could he understand her horse sign language.
Queque said she could understand, and then she stroked her chin and listened for a long time, and finally broke down: "I seem to only understand her mockery of me, and I don't understand any other serious words."
"It's okay. It's a good thing that you can understand when people scold you." Lu Zhan soothed her and waited for Ling Jiaoyue's report summary.
The little Pegasus kept chirping and dancing for a long time. Ling Jiaoyue finally understood what the other party meant. She looked quite solemn.
Lu Zhan pushed the little Pegasus aside and asked, "Don't think about it anymore. What did she say?"
Ling Jiaoyue felt that Lu Zhan's actions were rough, so she pulled the little Pegasus back and said, "The little Pegasus did see the Fiery Flame Ganoderma, but she said that there seemed to be a strange monster growing around the Fiery Flame Ganoderma... Based on her description, I deduced the type of the monster."
Lu Zhan asked: "What?"
Ling Jiaoyue took a deep breath and said softly, "Ba."
……
Lu Zhan immediately understood why Ling Jiaoyue had such a serious expression.
Generally speaking, Ba is a kind of zombie, but it is much more magical than ordinary zombies. Ba evolved from zombies by reversing their ancestry.
Common types of ordinary Ba include Iron Ba, Bronze Ba, Gold Ba, etc. These are the basic Ba. Going further up, there are disaster Ba such as Drought Ba and Water Ba.
Zaiba represents disaster. Wherever Hanba goes, the land will be barren for thousands of miles without any grass growing. It will also bring plague with it, so it is an ominous thing.
Shuihongba will cause floods, winds and waves, and floods everywhere.
It is said that the reason why there are Ba in the world is that in ancient times there was a goddess who was poisoned by a strange poison. After her death, her body turned into Ba and was later destroyed in the land of Chishui. However, the Ba poison was passed down and once caused a Ba disaster.
A thousand years ago, all the major immortal sects joined forces to fight against a disaster caused by Ba, and since then Ba seems to have disappeared.
It’s not that the immortal sect completely eliminated Ba, but that Ba hid and its whereabouts are difficult to find.
The poison of Ba is highly contagious, and it is not easy to eliminate the disaster of Ba. In addition to thanking the efforts of the immortal sect, we must also thank an old senior for achieving such results.
It is said that when the disaster of Ba was at its worst, an old senior with great strength stepped forward and said that Ba was born to be suitable for alchemy. The elixir made by Ba possessed miraculous effects. After taking it, the body would become very strong. Even a weak night doctor would have arms and legs as strong as iron after taking it.
As the saying goes, there is no harm without trade, but with trade, there is harm everywhere.
When this incident spread across the continent, everyone's enthusiasm was immediately aroused, and the cultivators who were unwilling to provoke Ba in the past began to become Ba hunters.
Although Ba was physically strong, powerful, and extremely ferocious, he eventually realized how dangerous the world was and gradually disappeared.
Even the Xiangxi Corpse-Driving Sect was deeply affected. They were good at refining corpses into zombies, and their sect used secret methods to raise Ba. But later, the Ba that they had worked so hard to refine... was stolen.
It would be fine if it was stolen once or twice, but such thefts happened one after another, and the top leaders of the Xiangxi corpse-driving sect were furious.
But there have always been thieves who can steal for a thousand years, but no one who can guard against thieves for a thousand years. Even if the corpse-driving sect has all-round defense, the theft incidents still happen from time to time.
If raising a Ba is simple, it wouldn't be a big deal if two of them were stolen, but raising and refining corpses is not that simple, and there are many tricks involved.
Not all corpses are suitable to become Ba. First of all, it depends on whether the cemetery is evil, whether there is resentment in the throat of the deceased when he died, and what the qualifications of the corpse are.
Maybe among thousands of corpses, only ten are suitable for being refined into zombies.
And this kind of zombie cannot be called a Ba yet, it is just the most basic zombie. It takes countless efforts for the zombie to evolve into a Ba.
According to incomplete statistics, under normal circumstances, it takes hundreds of years to raise a golden demon.
Just imagine, something you have worked hard to raise for hundreds of years is suddenly stolen.
Moreover, they steal every now and then... Even if the corpse-driving sect has a deep foundation, it can't withstand such a thing.
As a result, the corpse-driving sect gradually declined, and simply began to give up, no longer practicing Ba, and began to take on ordinary corpse-driving business to make a living.
In the past, the Xiangxi Corpse School and the Southern Xinjiang Gu Poison were on par with each other, but now most people only know about the Southern Xinjiang Gu and not the Xiangxi Corpse School.
As for the acts of hunting and stealing Ba animals on a large scale, people only make moral condemnations but do not take any practical actions to stop them.
Because the ba are different from monsters, monsters can be good or bad, and not all monsters will harm people.
However, the Ba species evolved by relying on human blood. Only after evolving into a drought Ba can it fully recover its sanity before death, become an intelligent creature, and be able to restrain its own behavior. This means that before the Ba species has intelligence, it will attack indiscriminately when it encounters humans.
Even the Ba that the Corpse-Raising Sect raised themselves had several times suddenly lost control and caused a lot of killings, so everyone was very happy to see incidents such as hunting and stealing Ba.
The Fiery Ganoderma prefers dry environment and mostly grows in the desert. Among the types of Ba, only the drought Ba will leave a thousand miles of barren land wherever it goes. If there really is a Ba on the fairy island, it must be the drought Ba.
According to common sense, the existence of a drought demon on an island in the East China Sea is simply unbelievable, but when you think about the fact that the owner of this island is the Fire Phoenix King, everything makes sense.
If the Fire Phoenix King had nothing to do and wanted to find someone to play mahjong, it wouldn't be surprising if he picked up a Ba beast from somewhere.
The Ba species are considered to be group creatures, but disaster Ba such as Han Ba are different. When they reach the level of Han Ba, most of them are solitary. Even if there are other Ba following them, they are all younger brothers, and there will never be two Han Ba living together.
The fairy island is still lush and green, which confirms Lu Zhan's guess. If there were two or three drought demons here, there would probably be no grass growing.
This was the first time Lu Zhan was so close to a "Ba". He couldn't help but be very interested: "It is said that the flesh and blood of Ba can strengthen the body. Is this true?"
Although he is already strong enough, he still wants to be stronger. As a man... it is a good thing to be stronger.
Ling Jiaoyue immediately corrected his thoughts: "Don't think too much. This news was spread by Dawo Immortal...also known as Zhenyuan Immortal. He is a warrior, not an alchemist. How much do you think you can trust his words?"
Lu Zhan said without hesitation: "Then it must be true."
"Huh?" Ling Jiaoyue looked at Lu Zhan in astonishment. They had been to the Zhenyuan Secret Realm and knew how dishonest that old senior was. Even the mother tree of the ginseng fruit of the Yunshui Sect was dug away by that old guy...the old senior, which showed that he had lost his morals.
Ling Jiaoyue felt that she could not believe all the words of Zhenyuan Immortal. Although based on the analysis of the hunting of Ba thousands of years ago, Ba might really be able to make elixirs, it was still unclear whether the effect was that good.
Lu Zhan said seriously, "You don't know that although the old senior did petty, insane, and despicable things, he is very knowledgeable about body refining. In order to enhance his toughness, he even dug up the Lingyang grass from the Hehuan Sect. It can be seen that he has a lot of experience in body refining."
A virgin is not scary, but an old virgin who has lived for thousands of years and is full of energy but unable to release it is quite scary.
For example, Elder Zhen Yuan caused great trouble in the world of immortal cultivation.
Lu Zhan now has the "Illustrated Guide of Beast-Eared Girls of Various Races" compiled by an old senior in his spirit ring, and he benefits a lot every time he reads it.
"Hmph, and you still know that he is morally corrupt and steals everywhere. He is simply corrupting the morals of the immortal cultivation world." Ling Jiaoyue's attitude was cold and she criticized him mercilessly.
Lu Zhan said sternly, "Don't worry, I'm not that kind of person. Let the little Pegasus take us there. We'll go pick some Fiery Ganoderma and check if this drought demon is conscious."
The reason why Ba is so powerful is that its flesh and blood are tough, and many weapons cannot penetrate its defense... But Lu Zhan has the Plum Blossom Spear that protects against thunder. Thunder is the nemesis of Ba, and it is also a magical weapon ranked in the top 100 on the Divine Weapon List, so he has a natural advantage in fighting Ba.
If this drought demon has no independent consciousness, it means it will be a time bomb.
Ling Jiaoyue understood this logic. She nodded slightly and signaled the little Pegasus to lead the way.
The little Pegasus turned in a circle on the spot, and after Ling Jiaoyue rode on it, its figure began to run forward like a stream of light, at an extremely fast speed and with an elegant posture.
Lu Zhan was extremely envious, so he discussed with the little Pegasus: "Can I ride it too? I can feed you grass."
The little Pegasus glared at Queque, then looked at Lu Zhan, silently rejecting him with his eyes.
Ling Jiaoyue translated: "She said: Even if you give me grass, I won't let you ride on it."
Alas... it is becoming increasingly difficult to deceive little girls nowadays... Lu Zhan increasingly misses the days when he could treat someone to a lollipop by just a few sweet words and a little money.
Que Que was so angry that her chest heaved. She looked at the agile appearance of the little Pegasus and changed back to her original form without saying a word: "Xiao Lu, ride me! I am flying very fast now!"
Lu Zhan: “…”
Lu Zhan has never been in favor of involution, but now he feels that it depends on the situation.
For example, now, it's quite comfortable.
……
After crossing several mountains and rivers and heading hundreds of miles to the south, they finally arrived at a strange place.
During this period, Lu Zhan and Ling Jiaoyue met many cultivators, but because Lu Zhan had a bad reputation, almost no one wanted to offend him, so the journey was relatively peaceful.
However, Ling Jiaoyue and Lu Zhan's progress broke the hearts of countless cultivators.
Although rumors about the two of them had long been rife, they all felt that the rumors could not be fully trusted. Lu Zhan and Fairy Ling rarely interacted with each other, so the so-called rumors must be groundless.
It was not until everyone saw Ling Jiaoyue riding a Pegasus and traveling with Lu Zhan that they were forced to accept this reality.
Fairy Ling, who is as pure as ice and as chaste as a jade, lives happily with Lu Zhan on the fairy island!
Lu Zhan ran almost listening to the heart-breaking voices of the bootlickers along the way, but the closer he got to the red land, the fewer cultivators there were.
“I didn’t expect that on an island with many rivers, there would be such a large area of dry and cracked land.”
Lu Zhan rode on Que Que and looked out. The distance was red for thousands of miles, the earth was dry and cracked, and no grass grew. From afar, it looked desolate and evil, as if it was two completely different worlds from the oasis behind him.
But it is precisely because of this that the power of the drought demon is so great.
Even though the creations of nature are not restricted by any particular style, the general environment is difficult to change. There would not be barren land on the island. It is only because the drought demon came here that this place became different.
Ling Jiaoyue looked ahead and spotted a blade light on a red hillside. She narrowed her eyes and said, "There are traces of fighting. Someone has been here before. Let's hurry up."
Because of recuperation in the cave, the two delayed their journey a lot.
Lu Zhan patted Que Que's butt and said, "Let's go."
The sparrow flapped its wings and flew forward, complaining, "Why are you patting my butt?"
"Then pat your head." Lu Zhan ignored Queque's resistance and stuffed a spiritual fruit into her mouth.
Queque immediately started working hard.
……
At that time, in a dark cave on the island.
The Twelve Immortals of the Earth Alliance are holding a meeting regarding Lu Zhan.
The three earth immortals looked at the six extinguished soul flames and felt deeply afraid of the Demon Suppression Division. "Lu Zhan killed a total of six of our masters, and three masters from the Marquis' Mansion were also killed. He is stronger than I imagined. But the problem is that he is so strong, but he is not qualified to be transferred to the Demon Suppression Division headquarters. It seems that the Bian Jing headquarters is even more terrifying. The eldest princess is really a bitch."
"It would be great if we could get into the Demon Suppression Bureau, use the bureau's resources to practice, and then turn against them at the critical moment and beat them hard!" The Twelve Earth Immortals had the urge to go undercover in the Demon Suppression Bureau.
Di Yixian scolded, "Shut up! The Demon Suppression Division has been developing for many years, so its foundation is naturally better than ours. What is there to envy? When we overthrow the Great Zhou, don't even mention the Demon Suppression Division, I'll let the little emperor wash my feet!"
Di Erxian felt that his elder brother was a little too optimistic, and advised: "Okay, okay... The most important thing now is to find a way to deal with Lu Zhan..."
"Humph, I get angry whenever this is mentioned." The Ten Earth Immortals said angrily, "We sacrificed six heroes, but the young marquis only sacrificed three. This is unfair to us. And I think the Marquisate has no future. If the Marquisate is as powerful as the rumors say, how could they not kill Lu Zhan?"
Everyone was deep in thought.
Whether the Marquis' Mansion has a future or not is not the point for now. The main reason is that in order to kill Lu Zhan, their Twelve Land Alliance sacrificed six masters, which made them extremely unbalanced.
"How about letting big brother do it himself?" The Three Immortals of Earth placed their hopes on their eldest brother.
Although everyone's realm is similar, the Earthly Immortal is undoubtedly the strongest.
Di Yixian raised his eyebrows and glared: "What are you talking about, Third Brother? Who asked the leader to intervene in a fight?"
Besides, as the leader of the Twelve Earth Alliance, he has always won people over with virtue. Fighting and killing is not suitable for him. Di Yixian is very clear about his position.
The atmosphere became tense, and the Five Earth Immortals came out to liven things up: "I received news from my subordinates that Lu Zhan was heading towards the Red Land. According to my subordinates' investigation, there is a drought demon in the Red Land. The drought demon is conscious and has at least half a step of creation. He is extremely ferocious... I have informed the young marquis of this news, and he will definitely not remain indifferent."
The Third Earth Immortal immediately gave a thumbs up: "Fifth brother is the one with the idea. Although we have a grudge against the imperial court, we are now cooperating with the young marquis. Why should we work so hard to deal with Lu Zhan? We should use the young marquis! This is our original idea."
"That's right. The young marquis is angry now. After receiving the news, he will definitely send people to discuss cooperation with the drought demon. This is a common trick used by the court nobles. They always think they can use anyone. If they can join forces to kill Lu Zhan, we will naturally reap the benefits." The five earth immortals showed disdain and said, "But based on what the young marquis did, I also think that there is no future in cooperating with the Marquis' Mansion. We have to think of other ways... For example, cooperating with a sect that has a large number of people but generally has a low IQ and likes to do bad things..."
Hearing this, the eyes of the Twelve Earth Immortals lit up: "I know! The Hehuan Sect!"
"Fuck you!" The Five Earth Immortals scolded, "Although we have always looked down on the Black Water Sect and felt that the threshold to join the sect was low... it is undeniable that their power is huge. If we can cooperate with the Black Water Sect, at least we will be well-informed."
Di Yixian sighed and said, "Cooperating with the Black Water Sect will indeed lower our status, but... let me think about it."
