Stone-gambling Competition!
"Southern Wasteland City"
It was a wide and flat road, with sturdy houses on both sides. They were brand new, and from the stone materials, it could be seen that they had been built a long time ago. However, due to years of repair, they looked very new. They were neat and tidy, giving people a very comfortable feeling.
Along the way, there were all kinds of stalls, all kinds of businesses, all flourishing, and the sound of laughter, trading, and shouting could be heard incessantly. Looking at the scene in front of him, Xuanyuan sighed in his heart. This was probably what Shi Yan would like to see the most. It would be best if there were demons, demons, and ancient races participating here.
Xuanyuan chose a pergola built on the roadside, sat at the edge of a mahogany square table, sat on a bench with Mochou, sat together with Yuan 'er and Yan Ziyun, and sat together with Peng Fei and Blue Butterfly.
This made Peng Fei feel very hurt. Why can't Blue Butterfly sit with me? Looking at Peng Fei's expression, there was an indescribable depression and loneliness.
On this old square table, there were buns wrapped in lotus leaves, bowls of fragrant soybean milk, and a plate of freshly fried red peanuts. The breakfast was very simple.
Blue Butterfly looked at the plate of food in front of her, a little puzzled, and said:
"With your cultivation, do you still need to eat these things like mortals? You should know that these things will eventually become impurities, hindering your cultivation! "
These foods were full of impurities, which were eaten by humans. For immortals, eating these things was not beneficial, but harmful. Although the impurities could be purified, there was no need to eat these things. This was what Blue Butterfly thought!
"Haha, Miss Blue, presumably you have been living in the Hundred Thousand Mountains, in the Blue Devil Abyss, and have not experienced the life of the common people, right? In fact, there is nothing wrong with eating these things. If the Archean royalty wants to rule the world in the future, you must have a deep understanding of the lives of the people in the world. If everyone has the same idea as you, I don't know how many people in the world will starve to death! "
Xuanyuan smiled and pushed a steamed bun wrapped in lotus leaves to Blue Butterfly, along with a bowl of hot soy milk.
"The other half of my body has the blood of the human race …"
Blue Butterfly replied with a smile. Then, she looked at the two types of food that belonged to the human race and hesitated for a moment. In the end, she still acted.
Blue Butterfly's eating posture was very elegant and light. She gently bit a steamed bun with her white teeth and drank a mouthful of soy milk like Xuanyuan and the others. Looking at each of them eating with relish, another feeling arose in Blue Butterfly's heart. It was very complicated, and for a moment, Blue Butterfly could not express it clearly.
Mochou did not have a good table manners. Instead, she took a big bite of a steamed bun. Her pink cheeks bulged as she chewed back and forth. When she could not swallow, she quickly drank a mouthful of soy milk. After swallowing, she finally exhaled a hot breath and smiled.
"It's delicious. The soy milk is so sweet, and there is a lot of meat in the steamed bun. At that time, Aunt Mei always gave the meat to me and ate the skin of the steamed bun!"
At this moment, there was a touch of faint warmth in Mochou's expression. Being able to meet a person like Su Mei was the greatest luck in her life. She was no longer sad. She knew that Su Mei had gone to a very far place, and she could only miss her deeply in her heart.
Mochou's face was full of smiles and happiness. In that memorable period of time, in her childhood, Su Mei was the only person who gave her warmth in this world, and then there was Xuanyuan. Even though Xuanyuan would go back to see her every now and then, Mochou felt that he was more mysterious and unfathomable. It was a secret that could only be hidden in her heart. Because of this, Xuanyuan had become one of the most important people in Mochou's life, and in some aspects, he had even gone beyond the limit.
"Back in those days, I suffered a lot just for a steamed bun when I was a child. I suffered a lot of humiliation. I didn't know how to eat the next meal. Sometimes, the food in my hand was even snatched away by others. Now, when I eat these things, I don't even want to eat them anymore …" Peng Fei said as he picked up a steamed bun and stuffed it into his mouth.
"Hmm … This, this taste, is not bad …"
"What a coward …"
Xuanyuan rolled his eyes and scolded with a smile.
As the sun rose from the east, the sunlight shone down on the land, making people feel warm and comfortable. They wanted to be basked in the sun, not wanting to move at all. It was warm and comfortable, calm and peaceful. It was a pity that such a life was not suitable for them. Only when they were lonely as kings or emperors would they be able to enjoy such a life.
From the day he became the successor of the Devouring Emperor, his life was destined not to be peaceful. Unless he lived in seclusion deep in the mountains and never came out, he would cultivate and strengthen himself. Otherwise, there might come a day when a disaster would befall him and he would die a violent death.
Xuanyuan knew that although he had comprehended the Three Pureness, and the power of the All Creations Body could conceal the secrets of the heavens, it didn't mean that others couldn't calculate his location. Even the Devouring Emperor was able to calculate his whereabouts. In the end, he was besieged and killed by all the major forces.
Now, no one could calculate his whereabouts because his opponents didn't offer a high enough price. Of course, there was also a deep taboo, which was that a Great Master of Divinity was killed by the Devouring Emperor's remnant will. This was what the people of the Heavenly Mystery were afraid of. They were afraid that the Devouring Emperor would have a backup plan. If that really happened, the losses would be unbearable. No matter how much they got, it wouldn't be enough to make up for their losses.
This was also the reason why Xuanyuan had been safe all this time. The Nightmare Ghost was only one of the reasons, but the Devouring Emperor was more important. On that day, the Heavenly Mystery used all their resources to calculate the Devouring Emperor's whereabouts, which made the Devouring Emperor hate the Heavenly Mystery to the extreme. Otherwise, the Devouring Emperor wouldn't have a backup plan. In their opinion, the Devouring Emperor definitely had more backup plans. He died because of the Heavenly Mystery's divination, so he naturally wanted to protect his inheritance and prevent the same thing from happening. As for the person who almost became an ancient emperor during the Age of Chaos, the people of the Heavenly Mystery didn't dare to underestimate him.
The Heavenly Mystery had once calculated this matter. If they were to calculate the inheritance of the Devouring Emperor, there would be a huge disaster. No one could explain what this disaster would be. Therefore, they all rejected the various temptations offered by the major powers. Even if they could really calculate the whereabouts of Xuanyuan, the one who would bear the wrath of the Devouring Emperor would be the Heavenly Mystery. No one was that stupid.
After breakfast, Xuanyuan left a celestial coin and left with the group. The waiter who was serving Xuanyuan's group was green with envy. This celestial coin was more than what they could earn by selling breakfast in their entire lives. What kind of status did the person who could take out a celestial coin have? Why would they come to this stall to eat was really unimaginable and incomprehensible.
In Southern Wasteland City, the common people lived on the outskirts. The closer they were to the center, the stronger the cultivators they would meet. This arrangement was also reasonable. It was inevitable that there would be some friction between cultivators. If the common people lived there, it was likely that the aftermath of a fight between two Immortal Fighters would be enough to annihilate them.
Along the way, it seemed that something big was about to happen in Southern Wasteland City. Countless people were excitedly discussing it. Their hearts were filled with anticipation. The reason why Southern Wasteland City was more heavily guarded than usual was probably related to this big event.
Xuanyuan's group heard people talking about the stone gambling competition that was held once every thousand years in Southern Wasteland City. It was said that this time, it was jointly organized by the Southern Dynasty, Sky Phoenix Immortal Mansion, and Purple Mansion Immortal School. All the rare stones that they had collected over the past thousand years would be displayed in front of everyone. Of course, if one wanted to cut a stone, they would have to pay a high price. Therefore, those who participated in this stone gambling competition were all people with status and a deep foundation. Otherwise, there would be some stones that no one could afford.
Of course, there were also some stone gambling masters who didn't have such a huge amount of wealth. Therefore, they chose to rely on some big powers and let them gamble with the money.
As long as one was a Stone Gambling Master, they could participate. The person who won in the end would receive a mysterious reward. As for what it was, no one knew. However, there were faint rumors spreading. No one knew what the reward was, but no one knew if it was real or just speculation.
"What do you guys think the reward will be this time? I heard that it might be a Supreme Grade Dao Treasure? This Supreme Grade Dao Treasure seems to have a great relationship with the Vermilion Bird Immortal Beast. The one who obtains this treasure will definitely be able to dominate the world. If a Supreme Grade Dao Treasure doesn't appear, who would dare to compete? The Vermilion Bird Immortal Mansion really is worthy of being called a Supreme Grade Dao Treasure! "
"Why did I hear that the Eldest Princess of the Southern Dynasty is going to be married to the winner? You should know that Princess Red Bean is a devastatingly beautiful woman. She is the number one beauty of the Southern Dynasty. Not only that, she is skilled in both the pen and the sword. Her cultivation base is close to the Sky Immortal Realm. Whoever marries Princess Red Bean will be able to dual cultivate with her. His power will definitely increase greatly. Moreover, from now on, he will have the backing of the Southern Dynasty. He will have nothing to fear! "
The ears of Xuanyuan and the others were like rabbits. They pricked up their ears and listened to all the information about the stone gambling competition. Obviously, Xuanyuan was very interested in the stone gambling competition of the Southern Wasteland City. It seemed to be a very long time ago since the last stone gambling competition. Xuanyuan really wanted to know if there were any Power experts in the Southern Wasteland City. Of course, there was also another thought. In such a competition, would the hidden geniuses of the Southern Dynasty appear? This was what Xuanyuan was looking forward to.
