Black Myth: Tang Dynasty

Chapter 49 The Treasure of the Dragon Palace
Li Daoxuan stared blankly at this scene with his eyes wide open.

He looked at the steaming bowl of water, then at the boiling river, and was surprised to find that the water level of the river was slowly dropping as the bowl of water continued to evaporate.

Countless water mist rushed into the sky, and after a while, the white clouds turned into dark clouds.

Li Daoxuan looked at the smiling old woman, his pupils were shocked.

"You... who are you?"

Burning the river and boiling the sea while raising his hand, turning into water vapor all over the sky, this supernatural power is something Li Daoxuan has only seen in his life. Compared with it, the scene where the master raised his hand and summoned dozens of thunderbolts is slightly inferior.

The old lady didn't answer his question, but smiled lightly and said, "Originally the Taoist sect has the art of asking for rain, so there is no need for such trouble, but some time ago, the imprisoned old dragon under the Longevity Palace didn't know what happened. Crazy, it caused a severe drought here."

"The usual method of praying for rain is no longer effective. It is necessary to burn the river to break the magic power of the old dragon and make it rain."

After finishing speaking, she looked at Li Daoxuan, nodded and said with a smile: "You are very good."

Li Daoxuan was startled, not knowing what she was referring to.

Is it because I rained in the orchard earlier, or did I not complain about fetching and boiling water for her?
Just when Li Daoxuan was about to ask questions, the old woman flicked her sleeves and said with a smile: "The water is boiling, and my thirst has been quenched. Let me leave this water for you to drink."

Boom!

Following a thunderstorm, torrential rain poured down, and it began to rain heavily in Yuzhang City. When Li Daoxuan looked up again, he found that the old woman had disappeared.

There was only half a bowl of clear water left in place, which looked a bit viscous, like transparent jelly, and smelled faintly.

"Is this..."

Li Daoxuan quickly propped up his umbrella to block the rain.

The wedding dress fluttered, and Chen Ziyu appeared beside him. As soon as she appeared, her eyes were attracted by the half bowl of water, and there were slight waves in her eyes.

Li Daoxuan picked up the half bowl of water and stared at it carefully.

"Sister Yu, this should be water essence. Master once said that water essence is the essence of water. Only one drop can be extracted from a hundred thousand drops of water. It is the treasure of the Dragon Palace. It has the effect of improving cultivation and nourishing the soul."

It was mentioned in "Liu Yi Biography" that the scholar Liu Yi saw the scene when he visited Dongting Lake Lord, that is, the pillars were made of water, built with sapphire, the bed was made of coral, and the curtain was made of water essence.

Without hesitation, Li Daoxuan took a few sips.

The entrance is fragrant and cool, and there is no sense of boiling heat at all. The cool feeling spreads along the throat and spreads all over the body, which is extremely comfortable.

The next moment, the white gas in Li Daoxuan's lower dantian suddenly increased, like a spring, more than ten times more than before.

These are his essence, after rushing away from Huang Ting, the essence is endless, but it is not so exaggerated.

Li Daoxuan guessed that the kidneys belonged to water, and under the nourishment of the water essence, a large amount of kidney water essence was born in his body, which could just refine the energy and improve mana!
He closed his eyes, sat cross-legged and meditated, and began to refine these surges of essence, transforming them into strands of pure mana.

Under the rain curtain, Chen Ziyu held an oil-paper umbrella to protect him from the wind and rain, and watched him quietly.

After an unknown amount of time, Li Daoxuan slowly opened his eyes.

His eyes have become more radiant, his brilliance is restrained, his demeanor is outstanding, even his skin seems to have become smoother, his face is like a crown jade, if he is not wearing Taoist robes, he really looks like a handsome young man.

There was a gleam of joy in his eyes, and he improved his skills for three years!
The mana lake in the lower dantian expanded again. Not only that, but he felt that his spirit had also become stronger, and his perception of the surroundings had improved significantly.

It is indeed a treasure that can nourish the soul!
The master once said that the strengthening of the soul is very important to practice. Anything that can strengthen the soul is a priceless treasure. Even the dragon and tiger golden pill that can improve the cultivation level is far behind.

There was still half of the water essence left, Li Daoxuan didn't drink any more, but handed it to Chen Ziyu, and said with a smile, "Sister Yu, drink it quickly."

Chen Ziyu was stunned, her pupils as indifferent as ice and snow rippled, she looked sideways at Li Daoxuan.

This is not candied haws, but a very rare water essence. Just now, the great supernatural being refined a big river to get such a little, but he is willing to share it with himself?

Li Daoxuan looked sincerely, and said: "Sister Yu, if it weren't for you, I might have lost my life a long time ago. Although you are a ghost, in my heart, you are stronger than countless people."

After a pause, he smiled and said, "Besides, we are friends. Since we are friends, we naturally want to share good things."

friend……

Chen Ziyu looked at the heavy rain and heard the sound of the rain beating on the oil-paper umbrella. Her hair fluttered and her eyes were slightly absent-minded.

"Sister Yu?"

Li Daoxuan shook his palm in front of her eyes and urged: "Sister Yu, drink quickly."

She turned her head and slightly parted her red lips.

The remaining water essence flew into her mouth automatically, and then a blush appeared on her pale face, as if she was drunk.

Blood dripped from the wedding dress, forming two words on the ground.

"I sleep……"

After all, she escaped into the umbrella and disappeared.

Whoa!

Without the cover of the oil-paper umbrella, the rain fell on Li Daoxuan in an instant, making him drenched in water.

Li Daoxuan shook his head and laughed, and said to the oil-paper umbrella: "Sister Yu, you are too rude."

Although he was drenched, he was happy for Sister Yu from the bottom of his heart. Naturally, she was not drunk, but got a lot of benefits and needed a deep sleep to digest.

Otherwise, as a red-clothed ghost, where would he want to sleep?
It seems that this water essence is of great benefit to the soul, but it's a pity there are only so many, and I don't know who the old woman is, how could she have such great magic power?

In fact, Li Daoxuan had a vague guess in his heart, but it was not completely confirmed yet.

The heavy rain continued for two hours and finally stopped.

Li Daoxuan was walking on the street, seeing the happy smiles on the faces of the people, many children were jumping and jumping in the street, cheering for joy, but accidentally wet their clothes, and their mother picked up their ears.

This long-lost heavy rain brought vitality to Yuzhang City.

Someone on the street kowtowed in the direction of the Tsing Yi Temple, thanking the Tsing Yi Empress. It seems that many people have gone to the Tsing Yi Temple to pray for rain during this period of time.

Infected by this atmosphere, Li Daoxuan also showed a smile.

However, at the next moment, a feeling of heart palpitations suddenly appeared, and he turned his head suddenly, looking behind him, his eyes were full of vigilance.

He was being watched!
That sense of crisis, as if being stared at by some terrifying beast, sent chills down his spine.

Li Daoxuan believed in his own feelings, especially since he had just refined the water essence, and his perception had been enhanced.

He turned around, and walked forward calmly, working in a miraculous manner, and walked through many alleys in a row, but the feeling of thorns on his back was always there.

Can't get rid of it!
Li Daoxuan revealed a ruthless look, and quietly picked up a Five Thunder Talisman in his hand.

Although fighting skills are prohibited in Yuzhang City, Li Daoxuan can't care so much when his life is threatened.

Since you can't get rid of it, kill him!
