She became a god
Chapter 168 Fish Woman
"Why can't I get through?"
Even after seeing the jade slip display "The other party is temporarily unable to answer," Sun Ning still couldn't accept this fact.
Lu Sinian must know a way to break the deadlock, but he just can't ask her, which is really frustrating.
It was only after Guanglingzi silently played a tune called "Purifying the Mind" that the cultivators slowly came out of their frenzied state.
Even so, a large number of cultivators still died at the hands of their fellow cultivators.
After finally calming down the commotion, Murong Yan exclaimed, "Look! The corpses of our dead fellow Daoists have all turned into snakes!"
"How strange, I know that fellow Daoist, he clearly doesn't have snake demon blood!"
"That's right! The fellow Daoists who died there were my fellow disciples. They were all ordinary humans, how could they have turned into snakes?"
Just as the fellow Daoists were wondering, a strong wind suddenly blew by, bringing rain.
"Judging from this direction, it seems to be a north wind."
"If this wind and rain can reach here, wouldn't it be even worse outside?"
"The rain is so heavy! The puddles have overflowed so quickly!"
"Look... the snake has turned into a fish."
"No...it's not entirely a fish, the other half is human!"
Muran murmured to himself, "There is a fish withered on one side, called the Fish Woman. It revived after Zhuanxu died. The wind came from the north, and the sky became a great spring of water. The snake transformed into a fish, which is the Fish Woman. It revived after Zhuanxu died."
This ancient text records the formation process of an ancient mythical beast.
Legend has it that when a strong wind blows from the north and underground springs overflow due to the storm, snakes transform into fish; the dead Emperor Zhuanxu then attaches himself to the fish and is resurrected.
A healer named Dongfang Shu was overjoyed upon seeing this, exclaiming, "Fish-women are excellent medicine for healing the soul! With fish-women everywhere, it's all worth it!"
Song Tao cautioned, "Fellow Daoist Dongfang, these fish women were at the Golden Core and Nascent Soul stages in life. Their mutations after death are likely even more severe. Don't be so eager to find the medicine that you risk your life."
Dongfang Shu is the young master of Medicine King Valley, a mid-stage Nascent Soul cultivator, and a renowned medical genius. She is a natural-born medical talent, but also a bit obsessed with learning medicine, as she can't resist good medicinal herbs whenever she sees them.
In response to Song Tao's well-intentioned reminder, Dongfang Shu smiled and said, "If you help me catch fishwomen, I'll give you a grade five pill for every eight fishwomen. If the other fellow Daoists catch fishwomen for me, I'll give you a grade five pill for every ten fishwomen. However, the fishwomen you give me must be intact, otherwise their medicinal value will be greatly reduced."
The cultivators wanted to move forward, so they had to kill the fish-women blocking their way. Although it would be a bit time-consuming and troublesome, a fifth-grade pill was generally worth about 30,000 high-grade spirit stones on the market. Even if they didn't need it themselves, it would be very profitable to sell it.
As a result, the group slowed down.
Dongfang Shu looked at the fisherwomen around her and couldn't stop smiling.
At this moment, a woman smiled and said, "I have come here specifically to assist you fellow Daoists."
Yuantong couldn't help but laugh, "Zhouzhou."
Ye Qingzhou gave him a wink, and Yuantong immediately understood. Fishwomen were good stuff. Instead of exchanging them for pills, it would be more cost-effective to save up more raw materials and find the elder in the clan who was good at alchemy.
You see, Ye Qingzhou's personal guards were all eager to fight, using their superior strength to reap the lives of the fish women.
Yuantong also quickly sought out some fishwomen who had reached the Golden Core stage in their previous lives, as they naturally wanted to acquire as many good items as possible.
Seeing this, Dongfang Shu felt a little regretful that she couldn't catch all the fish women in one fell swoop, but she knew that she had no reason to stop Ye Qingzhou and the other little pandas from taking action, whether in terms of strength or reason.
The other cultivators, upon seeing Ye Qingzhou and the other demon realm cultivators, were not only not annoyed, but also felt much more at ease.
It's good that you're out!
If they don't show themselves, I'm really worried they'll outmaneuver me.
While harvesting the fish women, Yuantong quietly moved closer to Ye Qingzhou.
Seeing this, Murong Yan followed.
He knew that the safest place right now was next to his former junior sister.
I've heard from my fellow disciples that my junior sister is the most reasonable and kind-hearted cultivator. If someone asks her for a favor, she usually won't refuse.
Ye Qingzhou grasped Yuantong's hand, feeling the bulge, and smiled, "Let's not look for that damn magical treasure anymore, safety first!"
Then he looked at Murong Yan and asked, "Does Fellow Daoist Murong have any fellow disciples traveling with him?"
Ye Qingzhou didn't really want to get involved with Murong Yan, but there were too many fellow cultivators present today.
If she truly ignores it, the news will immediately reach Ling Tianchu's ears, which would be extremely bad.
If things get too tense, and my former master forbids me from participating in the next fortune teller competition, then I'll lose a lot.
As is customary, the next Diviner Competition should be hosted by Xuanji Pavilion.
The Diviner's Tournament is held once every thousand years. If one can win the championship in the next Diviner's Tournament, one can dominate the Diviner's Ranking for a thousand years.
There's an unwritten rule in the fortune teller competition that there's a slight bias in resources towards the home team contestants.
This is also why the Empress Mother specifically arranged for her to become a disciple of Ling Tianchu; the Empress Mother always wanted her path in cultivating the laws of destiny to be smoother.
The hearts of mothers are truly pitiful!
However, now that the apprenticeship agreement has been returned, the relationship has become very strained.
If it weren't for the fact that the panda clan had almost complete control over all the purple jade mines on the market, Xuanji Pavilion would probably have already restricted Ye Qingzhou from participating in the next Diviner Competition.
If we were to openly target the disciples of Xuanji Pavilion at this juncture, it would likely cause Xuanji Pavilion to have second thoughts.
The master of Xuanji Pavilion is a rational person, but Ye Qingzhou knows that his former master, who was taken advantage of by her, is not rational.
Ling Tianchu is a serious and responsible academic teacher, but she is only so-so in terms of humanistic care.
Ye Qingzhou's senior female and male classmates were a little intimidated by her and didn't dare to communicate with her.
According to Ye Qingzhou's observations over the years, Ling Tianchu has been focused on divination for many years, with no worldly concerns. He doesn't care much about the master-disciple relationship, but rather about his personal reputation and academic achievements.
If she thinks I'm insulting her, she might do something impulsive in a fit of anger.
Therefore, Ye Qingzhou maintained a calm attitude towards Murong Yan.
But what Murong Yan said next completely surprised Ye Qingzhou.
"They're all very busy, and no one came with me."
How can a fortune teller travel alone?
Diviners and alchemists are the weakest in combat among cultivators of the same level, and because of their high value, they are often used as blood packs by some cultivators with ulterior motives.
Therefore, when they go out, they either go in groups or form alliances with fellow cultivators who are highly skilled in combat, such as sword cultivators.
If Ye Qingzhou didn't possess the Heavenly Spiritual Roots of Wind, Water, and Wood, which allowed him to cultivate other powerful offensive spells, he wouldn't dare to move around so casually.
In the past, when Ye Qingzhou went down the mountain, Ling Tianchu would at least give her a lot of instructions and reminders. Why does Murong Yan seem completely unaware of this?
Judging from the string of deer-shaped counting rods hanging from Murong Yan's waist, one can tell that Ling Tianchu cares about him very much.
Although Ye Qingzhou didn't understand why Ling Tianchu was willing to let Murong Yan venture out, he still said seriously, "Come with us. After we leave, I will take you to the Xuanji Pavilion branch in Pingcheng."
Murong Yan smiled and said, "Thank you, Fellow Daoist Ye."
