Yamafu Military Affairs

Chapter 487 Butterfly Zhu
After parking the Moon Watching ship brought by Hu Wei Ting at the original site of the Black Reef and blocking off all surrounding waters, Zheng Zhaomin and Wu Ziqi temporarily separated from Qin Huai and others and stayed in the Black Reef in order to take care of Hong Xue who was still in a coma and to prevent a sudden attack from Yunlai Diaosou.

The [Hundred Bird Soldiers] under Tan Song's command went to the Linyu Arena without stopping, and together with many Shark Guards, they arrested all the high-level managers and those who knew about the matter, ready to cut the Gordian knot. After interrogating them for clues, they planned to uproot all the suspicious people in the sea.

"General Feng, the Linyu Arena has close business relationships with many shops such as the Gold Shop and the Wanbao Pavilion. I think there must be accomplices among them, so I want to ask them to come out and explain in detail, but I am afraid that I will not be able to handle it properly and disturb the guests from all over the world, which will make the three demon kings unhappy."

The man who was speaking had starry eyes and a leopard-like face, and was wearing a suit of both civil and military sleeves. His name was [Golden Peng]. Like [Green Bird], he was the leader of Tan Song's [Hundred Birds], and he was brave, good at fighting, strong and courageous.

"It's okay, Commander Peng has important things to do."

Before Tan Song could speak, the worldly-wise Toad Ancestor held down the Shark King and made his position clear first.

"That would be great. Jin Peng would also like to thank Shark King for sending many helping hands, and Toad Ancestor for providing the gold shop account book."

It is a custom not to hit a smiling person. Seeing that the three monsters from Haiji knew the general situation, [Golden Peng], who was also at the top of the Seven Palaces, naturally treated them with courtesy. After bowing and thanking them, he hurriedly took his leave and continued to investigate and catch the thief.

"As the saying goes, saving lives is like putting out a fire. Time is running out now. We still have to go to Xuanlin Island to visit the Butterfly Demon King. Please stay."

Tan Song looked at Qin Huai, who was appreciating "The Whale Rider on the Deep Sea" with Ze Yu not far away, waved his hand and said, "Brother Qin, it's time for us to go."

Hearing Tan Song's call, Qin Huai also put down the "Whale Rider in the Deep Sea" in his hand.

The painting "Whale Rider in the Deep Sea" was inspired by what Ze Yu had seen when he watched him tame a giant sea-swallowing whale. He focused on the shape and spirit, and used only a brush to fully display the courage of the rider in fighting the whale. It is truly a unique work.

"Senior Qiu Qing, I'd like to trouble you to lead the way for me."

Now that Tan Song had come forward, Qin Huai naturally no longer needed to use the letter of introduction from the owner of Wanbao Pavilion. Everyone used their own methods and soon arrived at Xuanlin Island, not far from Chenxing Island.

The area of ​​Xuanlin Island is slightly smaller than that of Chenxing Island. It is only a few hundred miles from south to north, and less than a thousand miles from east to west. If you look down from the sky, you can see the boundless blue sea. Its terrain extends from northeast to southwest, and the overall shape is arc, like a leaf.

The island is not as prosperous as Chenxing Island. There is only one big city, and the nearby mountains and jungles have all been reclaimed into medicinal fields. Opening [A Glimpse] and looking around, many medicinal materials such as [Dragon's Birthday Tea], [Bi Chen Pearl], [Qingling Glue] and other names are densely packed and fill the eyes.

And the [Forest City] where the Qingqiu clan lives lives up to the impression that the dragon clan has in the eyes of outsiders.

Ancient trees are towering, their green shadows blocking the sun, long vines form bridges, foresttops fly across, spiritual streams meander, clear springs gush, there are countless exotic flowers and plants, and palaces and houses are scattered among the woods. A green dragon with a small horn on its head shuttles through them, riding the wind and stepping on the clouds, free and easy.

Groups of palaces are crawling among the green trees, with their high eaves looking ferocious and majestic. Rainwater washes the eaves, pours down between the glazed tiles, and is then spit out by the chiwen under the stone railings.

Qiu Qing's residence is located on Cangshan Mountain in the north of Lincheng, shaded by green mulberry and locust trees. Although the structure is simple, it is still majestic. It covers an area of ​​more than 30 acres and has all the necessary gate platforms, palaces, drum towers and bell towers. The most eye-catching one is the huge alchemy room with octagonal eaves.

Qin Huai and his four companions followed Qiu Qing to the palace gate and found that on the outer wall of the courtyard surrounding the entire palace, there was a painting of a dark green dragon with a prominent forehead and green scales covering its body.

"Is this your elder?"

Tan Song looked at the beast in the painting, which looked quite similar to Qiu Qing and had some of the aura of a real dragon, and asked casually.

"Mr. Feng has a keen eye, so he is the first to take the test."

Qiu Qing nodded, without saying anything more, waved his hand to open the palace gate, and continued: "Everyone, follow me."

Qin Huai looked at the dark green dragon in the painting, his eyes flickering twice, and then he followed Qiu Qing through twists and turns and came to an airtight quiet room.

On a bed of black ice in the room, which was emitting extremely low temperatures, was lying a woman wearing a rainbow dress.

Although her appearance is beautiful, it is not too stunning. But looking at her is like seeing the ethereal and otherworldly Yingzhou Fairy Island, and there is an indescribable agility and beauty in her.

But then, this beauty was affected by her frowning eyebrows, adding a sense of pity.

"Die Zhu was injured by the thunderbolt, and her essence was damaged. These days, I refined two furnaces of precious pills and gave them to her with the immortal spring water I asked for from Lady Zi Nu. Although she barely survived, she is still a long way from being out of danger."

Qiu Qing looked at the beauty on the bed with a helpless tone. He had tried many methods, but still failed to achieve a good effect on Die Zhu.

"She is suffering from a Dao injury. Ordinary elixirs are indeed useless."

Tan Song seemed to have made a judgment already. He just took a glance, took out a mutton-fat jade bottle, and poured out a round, red-gold pill.

[Nirvana Resurrection Pill]: Take one Nirvana Phoenix feather, one ounce of Yangshenzhi, and seven qian of thousand-year-old golden ginseng as the main ingredients. Grind them into powder, soak them in the dew of hundreds of herbs for 100 days, mix with jujube meat and make pills as big as sycamore seeds. Apply 6:1 mud, make it one inch thick in the furnace, and let it dry. Put the pills in the cauldron, and heat it with the Yin and Yang fire. It will be ready in 120 days.

Note 1: If the gate of life is connected, the continuity will be cut off, or there will be a sudden death. Regardless of the condition of the illness, the person will be reborn into Nirvana.

Note 2: You may guess that the Phoenix Feather of Nirvana comes from the original body of [Puanchu] and is indispensable for the Nirvana Resurrection Pill.

Note 3: This elixir was refined by Qingsi in the Tushita Palace of Lihentian. Just one pill can make a person full of energy, heal injuries, and restore his former strength.

"Let her take it."

Looking at Qiu Qing whose eyes were becoming increasingly fiery, Tan Song coughed twice, diverting his attention away from the colorful elixir on its surface, and pointed at Die Zhu on the ice bed.

"Yes. Feng Jun is really generous."

After giving the Nirvana Resurrection Pill to Die Zhu, Qiu Qing was still shocked at how casually Tan Song took out the pill to save people, and the admiration in his words almost overflowed.

That's an elixir!

Even Lady Zi Nu and Lord Zhi Xian had to take the risk of repeated furnace explosions before they could attempt to refine the elixir!

"We each take what we need. She has a great relationship with Penglai. Since I'm here, I can't just stand by and watch her die."

Tan Song stepped forward and looked at Die Zhu, whose condition had obviously improved. A bright yellow flame ignited at his fingertips and he touched the center of her eyebrows.

Call ~
The flames rose high, and she was reborn in nirvana. Tan Song's finger instantly ignited the power of the resurrection elixir that had spread into Die Zhu's limbs and bones. Although it turned her whole body into a torch, it also burned the Taoist injuries she suffered when she was overcoming the tribulation into nothingness.

From the body to the soul, the injuries caused by the thunderbolt were burned cleanly, but the soul was not injured a second time, which shows that this [Nirvana Resurrection Pill] does have the effect of a heavenly elixir.

Tan Song raised his right hand, pointed his sword into the air, and took out a batch of wood shells from his personal space. The wood shells melted in an instant, leaving only the purest plant essence, which floated on his fingertips and condensed into drops of green nectar. "Benefit the soul, replenish qi, and strengthen the body!"

As drops of nectar dripped into Die Zhu's mouth, the color of her lips was stained with a translucent glow, and her whole body suddenly emitted a crystal red light.

The Nirvana flames gradually went out, and Die Zhu, who was lying on the black ice bed, frowned again, but this time it was obviously different. Not only did her pale face have color, but her eyeballs under her eyelids also began to move, as if she was about to wake up soon.

"Me, my injuries, my calamity?"

After a while, Die Zhu opened his eyes and saw Qiu Qing beside him with a concerned look on his face. Feeling his own intact demon body and soul, he was overwhelmed with emotions and there was even a hint of tears in his eyes.

She actually survived, and survived the life-threatening calamity of the Heavenly Demon!
As if sensing Die Zhu's excitement, black and red flaming flowers bloomed in the sky, as if celebrating the new life of this Yingzhou immortal.

"Ah Qing, am I really alive?"

The surviving butterfly Zhu sniffed the fragrance of the flowers, seeming to be crying and laughing.

"It was all thanks to Lord Feng's timely help that I was able to save you at a huge cost using the elixir and magical powers."

Qiu Qing held Die Zhu's jade hand tightly and introduced her to Tan Song, who was standing in front of the bed with a dignified demeanor.

"Mr. Feng has great wisdom and kindness, and Die Zhu has no way to repay him. I am willing to follow Mr. Feng, and I will go through fire and water without hesitation."

"Okay, no need to say more. I saved you this time, but I actually had some selfish motives."

Looking at Die Zhu who was bowing, Tan Song supported her and said, "I heard that you have the innate ability to find your relatives in the dark. You can use your senses and blood power to determine the location of the [Red Winged Fire Butterfly] clan. I need you to lead us to find the missing Three Mountains of Penglai."

"What? Sanshan is missing?"

The Butterfly Master was stunned for a moment. She sat up straight and saw Qiu Qing beside her also had a serious face. Then she realized the seriousness of the matter, but she couldn't help but said, "The three sacred mountains have been rooted in Guixu for thousands of years without any changes. How could they suddenly disappear?"

"Not long after you passed out during the tribulation, someone tied up the Nine-Headed Divine Turtle with chains and dragged it and the three sacred mountains to the bottom of the sea. They went from the East China Sea to the South China Sea and headed west. No one knows where they are going."

Tan Song roughly recounted what had happened during this period, and slowly said: "I can't find the exact location of the Three Mountains and Nine Tortoises, so I need you to use your innate magical powers to see if you can find the Three Mountains directly."

"Impossible, impossible. To tie up the Nine-headed Divine Turtle and prevent it from breaking free, and to make it disappear without a trace overnight with the three mountains, even the Emperor of Heaven cannot do this. When did such an unheard-of powerful celestial demon appear in the Ten Continents and Three Islands? Unless..."

As an immortal from Yingzhou, Die Zhu knew very well that the three sacred mountains could not be shaken by ordinary people. But when she thought of a legend from thousands of years ago, she hesitated again: "Unless the one who did it was not someone else, but the giant Long Bo who had disappeared and once fished for turtles in Guixu!"

"Diao'ao, Diao'ao, Giant Long Bo, Yun Lai Diaosou?!"

As soon as the voice fell, Qin Huai, who had been feeling something since returning from the Black Lagoon, blurted out, "Yes, tying the turtles with chains and swimming under the sea, isn't this fishing? Only the Longbo giant who is said to have caught six divine turtles can fish away the Three Mountains and Nine Tortoises!"

"Combining all the clues we have collected so far, this possibility is indeed very high."

Tan Song nodded. What Qin Huai had just said coincided with what he was thinking.

"Die Zhu, I see that you are in good condition now, are you willing to lend me a hand?"

"Lord Feng has given orders, and I shall obey them."

On the one hand, it was to repay Tan Song for saving his life, and on the other hand, it was to find the way home and confirm the safety of his tribe members. Die Zhu immediately let go of Qiu Qing's hand, came outside the temple, and transformed into his original body.

Everyone looked up and saw a pair of burning flame butterfly wings in the sky, with colorful spots stretching all the way to the mountains, a beak reaching the sky, and a chest and abdomen connected, no less than hundreds of feet long. It was the [Red-winged Fire-attracting Butterfly].

Qin Huai opened [A Glimpse] and took a look, and the feedback was different again.

[Diezhu]: An immortal species on Yingzhou Island. According to legend, it was transformed from the remains of the Queen Mother of the West. It was actually nurtured by the essence of fire from heaven and earth. It has the shape of a butterfly, but is not a scaly insect, but a fire beast.

The fire butterfly at the half-step heavenly demon realm flapped its mountain-like wings, and balls of black and red flames lit up, suspended in the air, surrounding her from all directions.

Huhuhu~
Accompanied by the violent sound of wind, a biting gale swept up in an instant, and the surrounding black and red flames converged and connected, exploding into a spooky blue ghost fire.

It was clearly a blazing, unpredictable ghost fire, but it had a crystal texture like diamond glass or a red copper mirror, as if one could see the world inside through the flames.

"Is this, quantum entanglement?"

Qin Huai was inevitably surprised when he saw the scenery emerging from the flames, but these images were too unreal to be seen clearly.

Fortunately, [Die Zhu] quickly stabilized the picture and showed all the images in the Tongyou Fenghuo in front of everyone.

Qin Huai immersed his mind in it, and heard a burst of whale sounds in the empty valley. Then he saw a snow-white cloud whale that treated the sky as the sea. It swayed its body and swam freely in. On top of the whale's head, he saw an old man wearing a straw raincoat, a bamboo hat, and holding a fishing rod. He was casting his fishing rod from the clouds into the deep sea.

And beneath the sea of ​​clouds, there are three fairy islands emitting green, yellow and red magical light. They look like the three sacred mountains in Ze Yu's painting.

"Such a powerful magical aura, it seems like the immortals on the island have set up a large formation to resist something."

Qin Huai's eyes flashed with a clear light of glass, and he discovered that there were countless transparent silk threads connecting the sea of ​​clouds above and the three mountains in the sea.

[Break the delusion]!
The sapphire eyes flashed again, and the camouflage of these transparent fishing lines was immediately torn off, revealing the true form of the blood-colored chains.

The blood-colored chains were covered with scarlet evil runes, exactly the same as those on the "Chaining the Divine Ao Diagram".

The dark blue ghost fire representing the innate magical power of the Red-winged Fire-drawing Butterfly turned into a wisp of fire, flying from the distant sky and penetrating into the fairy island that was glowing with red spiritual light, as if it had given a strong boost to the crumbling formation, and the spiritual light suddenly became brighter.

"finally found you."

Tan Song looked at the fisherman in straw raincoat above the clouds, his eyes filled with cold murderous intent.
