Chapter 1740: Chapter 469: Taking a Gamble, Two Ancestral Tablets
On the other side, Yang and Yu Ziqing arrived at the Southern Sea of Dadui. After finding a spot on the seabed, Yang waved his hand, and the stone mountain he was holding flew out, constantly enlarging, transforming into tens of miles wide, and slowly settled at the bottom of the sea.
Yang entered from the entrance, Yu Ziqing hesitated for a moment and followed in.
Upon entering that hollow area, the voice of the Auspicious Beast sounded in Yu Ziqing’s mind.
"My stomach, can you borrow it, will you return it to me later?"
"..."
Yu Ziqing chuckled dryly; this Auspicious Beast was really straightforward, not understanding social niceties at all.
Yu Ziqing was planning to use the earth cage to fish for deep sea strange creatures; this thing was just too useful.
No need to put the earth cage into the deep sea. With preparations, you can fish for deep sea strange creatures from home.
Yu Ziqing really couldn’t find a better way than this right now.
The Mountain Lord already said that in the eyes of those deep sea strange creatures, he is now someone they can’t afford to provoke, even if he shows up.
If he goes to the deep sea to poop now, there won’t be any deep sea strange creatures appearing around.
The only way he can try is by using the earth cage.
"Speaking of which, when you undo your petrification and curse, and restore your original state.
Can’t you even restore a stomach?"
"If I were at my peak, spending a thousand years might be possible, but certainly not now."
"Alright then, I’ll make sure to return it to you once you’re restored. I really need this thing right now."
"It’s not that I’m stingy," the Auspicious Beast continued to explain.
"Rest assured, I always keep my word."
Yu Ziqing sighed inwardly. Forget it. After all, the earth cage, aside from catching strange creatures, doesn’t have much other use. Just return it when finished.
A dignified Auspicious Beast, having trouble regenerating even a stomach, is really an embarrassment.
As a mere body cultivator, he could do blood rebirth.
The more he thought about it, the more he felt he should reflect on it.
Upon recalling carefully, when the Auspicious Beast transformed into a stone mountain and fell into slumber, there seemed to be no such thing as body cultivation.
"Have you heard of body cultivation?"
"Was it that person before?"
"Yes, yes, precisely that type of body cultivation. Body cultivation has a divine skill called blood rebirth.
This divine skill’s acquisition probability is a bit low, but among body cultivators, there are Dharma methods for limb regeneration and organ regeneration.
Look, when you’re restored, why not consider it, and see if you can refine your body.
If you succeed in body refinement, forget about one stomach, you could regenerate ten stomachs.
How about it?"
The Auspicious Beast was silent for a while, a bit unable to follow Yu Ziqing’s line of thinking.
Yu Ziqing looked at Yang, whose eyelids were twitching wildly.
"What nonsense are you thinking about again?"
"Aren’t you going to research here?
If you could find a way to restore him.
Just by the way, research how to make him also able to do body refinement.
How do you feel about it?
Quite a challenging topic, right?"
"..."
Yang was rendered speechless.
To open a research topic specifically for one stomach?
Crazily absurd.
Yang flew over and kicked Yu Ziqing in the chest, sending him flying backward.
Yu Ziqing screamed, flipped midair, and swiftly dodged.
After Yu Ziqing fled, the Auspicious Beast hesitantly asked.
"Can it be like that? Is there really such a divine skill?"
The Auspicious Beast was naturally tempted.
His divine skills were mysterious, and the strongest aspect was actually related to the stomach.
Otherwise, his stomach wouldn’t be so difficult to restore.
If there really is a divine skill that can make up for his deficiencies, he’d certainly be willing to try once he’s restored.
"Body cultivation indeed has a divine skill called blood rebirth, and the one who fled knows it."
"Can I learn it?" The Auspicious Beast’s tone carried a hint of anticipation.
"..."
Yang elongated his face, finding it challenging to explain clearly to someone who doesn’t even know what body cultivation is.
Besides, Yu Ziqing had already opened a topic; Yang thought about it and actually found the topic quite interesting.
Let the Auspicious Beast among the Four True do body refinement...
"We’ll try researching it if there’s an opportunity afterward. For now, let’s focus on how to undo your petrification and curse."
...
Yu Ziqing staggered away from Cat Head Mountain, glanced back, and couldn’t help but laugh.
If the Auspicious Beast could do body refinement, the scenes would certainly be interesting.
As an Auspicious Beast, it descended from the heavens, with a hand capturing the enemy that brought misfortune, beating them to death with sheer physical strength, leaving only the Auspicious Beast.
The outcome wouldn’t be wrong, after all.
Leaving the Southern Sea and getting ashore, Yu Ziqing then saw many people bustling along the coastal area at South Dui in Dadui.
Busy building houses, cutting suitable trees for shadow drying, preparing to make boats.
Others are planting grains and vegetables, creating a lively and bustling scene.
The mortals of East Qian adapted quite swiftly.
A bit further ahead, he saw many people building life temples and others worshipping.
Yu Ziqing glanced at them from afar, feeling a bit odd.
In that life temple, they weren’t just worshipping whom he thought was Peeling.
Apart from Peeling, there were two other placards.
The one in the center was for the esteemed Emperor Dui of Dadui.
On the left was lord Peeling; on the right, there was another placard for Qing Ziyu of Jinlan Mountain.
Inside, as people worshipped, an elder explained to the young who these people were they were worshipping.
"Lord Peeling has protected us for a long time. Since my grandfather’s grandfather, there has been.
This time, when the great tsunami came, there were rumors of man-eating monsters afterward.
It was Qing Ziyu from Jinlan Mountain who helped find Emperor Dui.
Emperor Dui, benevolent at heart, agreed to accept us.
Finally, it was Young Master Qing who sent that big black ship to take us.
That’s how we survived and now have land to cultivate.
We mere mortals never had such treatment.
Remember, future festivals, always come here to kowtow to these three great ones."
The elderly man with a face full of wrinkles earnestly instructed the children.
Seeing the children a bit distracted, it was clear this wasn’t the first time telling.
Yet, as the elder spoke, the other adults listened quietly.
Born in East Qian, they understood well; having someone rescue them, take them away, provide a place to live, and even offer free grain seeds was extraordinarily hard to believe.
A group of confused children, led by the adults, followed suit, kowtowing and worshipping.
And those adults were genuinely the most devoted ones.
They understood best how rare it was, facing such an unstoppable, earth-shattering disaster, to still be able to see the children.
