"Are you serious?" Song Zhong exclaimed, "It costs a thousand high-grade spiritual stones to operate it for fifteen minutes? That's the price of a low-grade magical treasure? Why is the consumption so high? "
"This thing is so big, and it can be driven very quickly. Furthermore, the protection around it has to be fully activated to ensure its safety. Furthermore, the lights inside the Gold Dragon Boat and all the other facilities require spiritual energy. Hence, the consumption of spiritual stones is more severe." Elder Fang smiled and said, "Actually, this is nothing! The consumption of spiritual stones during normal travel is different from when we are in a real battle. It is said that when the Gold Dragon Boat is operating at full power, even two to three Spirit Severing Stage cultivators would have to retreat. However, at that time, the consumption of high-grade spiritual stones every fifteen minutes would be more than ten thousand. It's basically burning money! "
As SongZhong heard that, he came to a realisation, "Oh my, I finally understand why the Empress gave it to me. She can't afford to play with it, and it takes up too much space for her. Thus, she decided to give it to me as a favour!"
"Hehe, that's about it!" Old Fang smiled and said, "However, Her Majesty has good intentions. After all, Your Highness is not very strong now, and there are many existences that can threaten you. Unlike Her Majesty, who can come and go as she pleases in this world and doesn't have to worry about her safety at all! Hence, she gave you the East Sea Empire Emperor's carriage to protect yourself. "
"This thing is not bad, but the problem is, how can I afford to use it?" Song Zhong laughed bitterly, "I don't have enough high-grade spiritual stones for it to burn!"
"Haha, you don't have to worry about that!" Elder Fang laughed, "After all, you are the Crown Prince. Although the East Sea Empire does not have the ability to let you drive the Gold Dragon Boat around every day, they can still fork out a hundred thousand high-grade spiritual stones. This should be enough for you to escape with the Gold Dragon Boat in times of danger!"
Song Zhong was overjoyed when he heard this. He asked, "That's great. Where are the spiritual stones?"
"Hehe, they are all in the Gold Dragon Boat. It should be enough for you to fight for two hours!" Elder Fang laughed, "Do you think we should take the Gold Dragon Boat or fly there ourselves?"
"Do you even need to ask?" Without a second word, SongZhong stretched out his hand and kept the Gold Dragon Boat into his Natal Artifact.
When Old Fang saw this, he was shocked. Then, he said in astonishment, "Aiya, Your Highness is quite capable. You have a way to store such a huge Gold Dragon Boat? "
"Haha!" Song Zhong just smiled and didn't say anything. He thought to himself, 'Master Daoist's natal space is already sixty to seventy thousand feet in diameter. Let alone a mere three thousand feet Gold Dragon Boat, I can even keep a three thousand feet small mountain for you.'
However, these were all Song Zhong's secrets, so he couldn't tell Old Fang. So he changed the topic and said, "Oh right, Old Fang, are we going to that Pure Water Palace now?"
"It's already the Crown Prince's Palace!" Old Fang said with a smile, "From now on, it's yours!" Come, I'll show you the way. As he said that, Old Fang took out a huge sword. After injecting his mana, it immediately transformed into a huge sword that was a few hundred feet long and a few dozen feet wide.
Old Fang then invited Song Zhong and Lei Shan 'er to sit on it and flew them up.
On the way, Song Zhong started to ask about the Pure Water Palace. In the end, he didn't know if he didn't ask, but when he did, he got a shock. As it turned out, the Pure Water Palace was actually a cave left behind by an ancient cultivator. Although it wasn't very big and was located in a remote area, there was a natural Black Moon Primordial Water Pond.
The Black Moon Primordial Water was the essence of water type spiritual energy, similar to Song Zhong's Five Elements Pure Water. However, Song Zhong's Five Elements Pure Water was the purification of the five elements spiritual energy, while the Black Moon Primordial Water was only water type spiritual energy.
In terms of effect, the Five Elements Pure Water was the best. However, in terms of practical application, the Black Moon Primordial Water was better. Because it was rare to see cultivators and demonic beasts that were proficient in all five elements techniques, the five elements spiritual energy was usually used to refine spiritual pills.
However, the Black Moon Primordial Water was different. Not only could it be used to refine high grade water type spiritual pills, it was also very suitable for water type cultivators and demonic beasts. In the East Sea Empire, water type demonic beasts were the majority. Thus, when the Black Moon Primordial Water Pond was discovered, it immediately became the focus of everyone's fight.
In the end, no one was willing to give in, and thus, they fought, resulting in countless casualties. However, in the end, no one was able to monopolize this place. Helpless, they could only invite the Emperor of the East Sea Empire to discuss this matter.
After a series of arguments, they finally came to a decision. The Black Moon Primordial Water Pond and the Pure Water Palace would be under the Emperor's name. However, the right to use it would be auctioned off for a hundred years. No matter who wanted to use it, they would have to spend a large sum of money to defeat the competitors. And this wealth would be divided equally among the others. In this way, everyone would get the same benefits, and thus, the disputes were settled. And now, the user of the Pure Water Palace was a thousand year old turtle called AoTian.
It was said that this AoTian was even stronger than Old Fang, and was close to the peak of Class 6. He was only slightly weaker than the Single Horned Dragon Queen.
Song Zhong thought about it. As a Class 4 rookie, was it appropriate for him to chase the other party away just because of the Queen's nonsense? That old fellow had paid a huge price but did not manage to live in the Pure Water Palace. How could he be satisfied? If he were to beat him to death in a fit of anger, wouldn't he be wronged?
Thinking of this, Song Zhong told Old Fang about his worries. In the end, Old Fang laughed out loud after hearing it, and then told Song Zhong that there was no need to worry. AoTian would definitely not dare to attack Song Zhong, and he would be more than happy to let go of the Pure Water Palace.
Song Zhong did not understand. He hurriedly asked why, and after Old Fang's explanation, Song Zhong finally understood what was going on.
It turned out that the demonic beasts and human society were somewhat similar. Their race placed great importance on bloodline. For example, Song Zhong who possessed the River Diagram, he belonged to the upper class, and was similar to the existence of royalty. And AoTian was just a descendant with a thin bloodline, and was considered a commoner. Thus, he had to maintain absolute respect for Song Zhong.
Furthermore, in view of Song Zhong's boundless future, if AoTian were to form a good relationship with him today, Song Zhong would owe him a huge favor. A Class 4 demonic beast's favor was naturally nothing much, but when Song Zhong advanced to Class 7, 8, or even Class 9, the weight of this favor would be too great.
In addition, Song Zhong still had the Queen's orders. Thus, AoTian would be happy to let go of the Pure Water Palace.
Although Old Fang's explanation was very clear, Song Zhong was not familiar with the habits of demonic beasts. He understood, but he was still somewhat worried.
Thus, with mixed feelings, Song Zhong and Lei Shan 'er, under the lead of Old Fang, finally arrived at the base of the Pure Water Palace, Xuanshui Island.
Speaking of which, Mystic Water Island was actually not very big, only about a thousand miles in radius. The scenery was quite good, with mountains, rivers, and many spiritual trees. Especially in the middle, there was a huge lake with a radius of dozens of miles, and the Pure Water Palace was on the lake.
As soon as he arrived above the Pure Water Palace, Song Zhong was immediately awed by the majesty of the Pure Water Palace. This was a palace built purely out of white jade. It was tens of thousands of feet wide, like a fort at the center of the lake.
What was worth mentioning was that around the Pure Water Palace, there was a shallow beach that was only a few feet deep. The water was densely packed, and there were colorful objects everywhere, emitting beautiful light. Song Zhong took a closer look, and realized that those were all broken magical tools and treasures. Although they were broken, the light was still there. Furthermore, spiritual objects were still spiritual objects. Even if they were broken, there was still spiritual Qi leaking out. The spiritual Qi released by these countless fragments was not to be underestimated, causing the entire Pure Water Palace to be filled with dense spiritual Qi. It was comparable to a good cultivation ground.
SongZhong never imagined that there would be so many magical tools and magical artifact fragments here. The Pure Water Palace was surrounded by them, and in total, there were at least a million of them. So many fragments, where did they come from?
Just as Song Zhong was letting his imagination run wild, Old Fang unhurriedly flicked his finger, shooting a sword light into the Pure Water Palace. Not long after, the restrictions on the periphery of the Pure Water Palace were removed. Then, the central door opened wide. A white-robed old man flew out with a smile and said, "Younger Brother Fang, what wind blew you to my place? Aiya, Shan 'er lass is also here? What a rare guest! "
Hearing this, Song Zhong immediately sized up the other party. He realized that this thousand year old turtle Ao Tian was indeed an extraordinary person. Although on the surface, there was nothing special about him, and he was just an old man with a hunched back and a walking stick. But in reality, the more ordinary he was, the more one would be wary of him. Because a mortal would not be able to fly at such a fast speed. To be able to fly at such a speed and still be able to maintain his composure, it was obvious that this person's cultivation was already at the pinnacle of perfection.
Lei Shan 'er was a junior and did not dare to be rude. She hurriedly came over with a smile, "Shan' er greets Senior Ao!"
Even though Old Fang had openly addressed AoTian as Old Ao in front of the Empress, he did not dare to act so impudent in front of AoTian. He hurriedly smiled apologetically, "Brother Ao, I am here on the orders of Her Majesty!"
AoTian first smiled and nodded towards Shan 'er as a form of greeting. Then, he placed Old Fang Liang by the side and stared at SongZhong with a face of doubt, "Strange, why do I feel the aura of someone from the same race from little brother?"
"Because he is from the same clan as you!" Old Fang hurriedly interrupted, "Little Highness, please reveal your identity and let Brother Ao see!"
After Song Zhong heard this, he did not bother to talk nonsense and directly activated the Blood River Pattern's protective divine light, revealing the pattern of the Blood River Pattern. When Ao Tian saw it, he was first shocked and then said in surprise, "Aiya, so it is the descendant of the Emperor. Sorry, sorry!" As he said that, Ao Tian actually took the initiative to cup his fists and greet Song Zhong.
