I have 99 innate treasures

Chapter 385 Dragon Palace

Zhang Tiansu glanced at Qin Mu cautiously, and seeing that he did not open his mouth to stop her, he lowered his voice and told the woman about Jin Ling.

When the woman heard that Qin Mu actually had a golden order of Emperor Yu in his hand, she subconsciously covered her mouth and exclaimed.

Afterwards, regardless of his wet state, he hurriedly clasped his fists and bowed, saying in a clear voice: "Zhang Tianzhen, deputy captain of the Yaohai Town Demon Division, greets the envoy!"

When Qin Mu heard that this woman was actually a deputy centurion, he couldn't help but show surprise, and said in astonishment: "When can a person in the Foundation Establishment Stage become a deputy centurion of the Demon Suppression Bureau?"

Zhang Tianzhen was startled when he heard this, and subconsciously glanced at his brother Zhang Tiansu, whose face changed drastically, and immediately realized that he had accidentally caused trouble again.

Zhang Tiansu also looked at her with a wry smile at this time, and made a hand gesture to dispel the magic that concealed the cultivation level of the brother and sister. The original foundation-building realm suddenly became impossible for Qin Mu to see through.

He looked at Qin Mu's eyes full of meaning, laughed dryly with embarrassment and worry, and bowed, saying, "Please forgive me, Your Excellency. I did not intend to conceal anything. I just concealed my cultivation with my sister in order to hide my identity."

Qin Mu clicked his tongue. No wonder Zhang Tiansu, who had only shown his foundation-building cultivation, had the courage to come in front of him just now. It turned out that he had hidden his cultivation.

When he thought of this, he was moved again and raised his eyebrows and said, "So, the so-called 'master waiting for you in front' you mentioned must be false?"

Zhang Tiansu didn't say anything, just smiled awkwardly.

At this time, Zhang Tianzhen beside him also released his spiritual power to dry his wet clothes, and said honestly: "Your Excellency, my brother and I are here to ambush the Sea and Land Conference under the order of Qianhu. In order not to attract attention, we made some disguises."

Qin Mu nodded slightly, moved aside, and said, "Let's talk about it after we get on the boat."

After the brother and sister looked at each other, they jumped from the flying sword and jumped onto the Shadowless Boat. The flying sword also followed them onto the boat and returned to Zhang Tiansu's hands, where he put it into his storage magic weapon.

Qin Mulai went to the other side of the small square table, took out two more cushions, placed one at his feet, and handed the other to Zhang Tiansu.

"Sit down, there's no need to be so restrained."

He smiled and sat on the mat, then took out a pot of fruit wine and three wine cups from the storage ring and placed them on the square table.

Hearing that there was no blame in his tone, Zhang Tiansu secretly breathed a sigh of relief, pulled Zhang Tianzhen to thank him, and sat on the mat.

Qin Mu picked up the wine pot and filled three wine cups. He asked, "You said that you two brothers and sisters were hiding your identities. Why did you say you were from Yaohai Pavilion just now? Aren't you afraid of exposing your identities?"

Zhang Tiansu answered respectfully, "The world only knows that Yaohai Pavilion fell after the battle hundreds of years ago, and does not know that our sect's cultivators joined Dayu. Only colleagues and superiors in the Demon Suppression Division who have the right to view the files can know this from the files."

Qin Mu suddenly realized, "No wonder you looked a little strange when I asked you if you were a captain or an inspector of the Demon Suppression Division."

Zhang Tiansu gave a dry laugh when he heard that.

Although Qin Mu behaved very kindly at the moment, it was his first time meeting an envoy from the imperial court, and because he had just deceived someone, he had been acting very restrained.

Since he sat down, he held the wine cup in both hands, sat cross-legged motionless, and kept his eyes on Qin Mu's expression.

On the contrary, Zhang Tianzhen, who was sitting next to him, seemed carefree. While the two were talking, he had already drunk two or three cups of fruit wine.

At this time, he wiped his mouth and asked curiously, "I heard from my brother that the envoy is also going to the Dragon Palace?"

Qin Mu nodded gently and said with a smile: "Since I have encountered such a grand event, I naturally want to join in the fun." He shook his head and said helplessly: "Although I grew up in Guanhai City and can see the East China Sea every day, I have never been to the sea, let alone where the Dragon Palace is."

After saying this, he looked into the eyes of the two brothers and sisters and said with a smile: "It's only because I met you, otherwise, I don't know how long I would have drifted on the sea."

Zhang Tianzhen laughed and said, "You are joking, Your Excellency. Even if you don't meet us, you will meet others. After all, as the conference approaches, more and more people are coming to the East China Sea."

Qin Mu nodded and asked casually, "Speaking of which, does the Land and Sea Conference have any restrictions on the cultivators who participate in the event? For example, invitations?"

After hearing this question, Zhang Tianzhen and his brother looked at each other and shook their heads at the same time.

Zhang Tianzhen said: "I have never heard of the need for an invitation token. It seems that as long as we can find the Dragon Palace, we can participate in this event."

After she finished speaking, Zhang Tiansu nodded in agreement.

Qin Mu smiled and said, "In that case, please point me in the direction and we will set off now."

Zhang Tiansu and Zhang Tianzhen nodded at the same time.

Seeing this, Qin Mu controlled the Shadowless Boat and sped along the water surface at an extremely fast speed. During this time, the brother and sister pointed out the direction for him from time to time.

Soon, the Shadowless Boat arrived at the center of the East China Sea.

Zhang Tiansu checked the surroundings and said seriously, "Yes, this is the place. We just need to go down to the sea from here and reach the bottom of the sea, and we will be able to see the Dragon Palace."

"There are shrimp soldiers and crab generals outside the Dragon Palace to welcome guests. All you need to do is leave your name and gift on the list, and they will invite you into the palace and arrange your room."

"I have heard that this time, the grand event will arrange palaces for the guests according to the value of the gifts."

"If you can't bring a gift, you can only stay in the side hall, but everything that happens next has nothing to do with the monks in the side hall."

Qin Mu was stunned when he heard this, and then he remembered that the essence of the magic weapon he obtained from the feedback of the falling treasure money seemed to be just right to be used as a gift.

But he didn't know the value of those essences.

As soon as he thought of this, he immediately took out a ball of grass-green light from the Qiankun Realm and asked the brother and sister, "I rarely communicate with cultivators. May I ask you, what is the value of this ball of Jiamu Essence?"

"Armor wood essence?"

Zhang Tiansu was surprised when he saw the ball of light because he felt the extremely rich wood spirit in it. When he heard that the ball of light was actually the essence of Jia wood, he smiled bitterly and said, "You are joking, my Lord. I am afraid that apart from those old monsters, few people can bring out treasures of such value as gifts."

Zhang Tianzhen also nodded and said, "The essence of Jiamu can not only be used to refine magic weapons, but also help cultivators comprehend Jiamu techniques and magical powers. If the amount is large, it can even allow cultivators to condense Jiamu golden elixir and Nascent Soul. Although it is not a priceless treasure, it is also extremely rare. Probably only the first-class sects can come up with such a valuable gift!"

After hearing their explanation, Qin Mu breathed a sigh of relief.

If the essence of Jia wood was not valuable, he really didn't know what to give as a gift.

The portable cave heaven, Qimen Falling Immortal Order, spiritual fruits, spiritual plants, star marrow and the like on him were all useful. Apart from these, only a large amount of spiritual stones were left.

While he was thinking about this, Zhang Tiansu and Zhang Tianzhen exchanged glances without leaving any trace. Although the essence of Jiamu can be extracted from some damaged magic weapons, it takes a great master of refining to spend several months of hard work.

Moreover, only a tiny bit can be extracted from a magic weapon.

To obtain such a large ball of Jiamu essence in Qin Mu's hand, it would take at least a dozen years of hard work.

However, no Mahayana cultivator would choose to spend more than ten years to extract such a large amount of Jiamu essence.

After all, its value is not proportional to the time spent.

Probably only the major sects in the holy land and the imperial court have the strength to hire many great master weapon refiners in the Mahayana period to carry out the refining.

At this time, Qin Mu had already taken the essence of Jiamu back into the Qiankun Realm. He looked at them with a smile and said, "In this case, let's go to the sea now. Please go ahead and lead the way."

Zhang Tiansu and Zhang Tianzhen nodded together, pinched their hands to avoid water, and jumped into the sea from the bow of the boat.

They didn't know that the movement of their fingers and the fluctuation of spiritual power around them were slowed down countless times in Qin Mu's eyes. Relying on his extreme spiritual root talent, he understood the mystery of this technique from the fluctuation of spiritual power in just a moment.

After recalling their hand gestures, Qin Mu immediately followed suit and performed the Water Avoidance Technique. Then with a thought, he retracted the Invisible Boat into the Qiankun Realm and dropped it into the sea.

The moment his body touched the sea water, a transparent air mask enveloped him, isolating the sea water outside the air mask.

This was Qin Mu's first time going to the sea in his past and present lives. He felt somewhat nervous and subconsciously released his spiritual sense to be on guard around him, guarding against possible threats while searching for any traces of the brother and sister.

After sensing that they were floating in the sea tens of meters deep and waiting for him, Qin Mu no longer hesitated. He wrapped himself with his spiritual sense and sank into the sea at an extremely fast speed.

When he came near the brother and sister, Zhang Tiansu nodded to him, and then he and his sister Zhang Tianzhen turned around and sank to a deeper place. Qin Mu followed closely behind.

They all used their spiritual consciousness to wrap themselves up, and used the Water Avoidance Technique to avoid the resistance of the sea water, so their speed was extremely fast.

After sinking for a while, Qin Mu found that there was no light around him and all he could see was pitch black.

About an hour later, a faint light suddenly appeared in the dark sea.

Qin Mu became more spirited and sped up a bit.

Soon, a huge palace complex emitting milky white light appeared in his eyes.

This palace seems to be built of crystal, and it looks crystal clear at first glance.

In front of the palace is a vast white jade square. At the end of the square stands a towering nine-arched archway that is a thousand feet high.

The archway seemed to be made of some material similar to gold, and under the milky white light emitted by the palace behind it, it emitted a faint golden glow that was not dazzling.

These golden lights formed wave-like brilliance in the ocean currents, making the surroundings even brighter.

The ten pillars supporting the archway are all sky-high pillars with lifelike dragon carvings on them. Each pillar has a pair of supporting columns, and each has two lintels with hollow patterns. The roofs are supported by brackets on the lintels. All nine floors have four-slope roofs, and the lintels of the main rooms are inlaid with a plaque with the words "Crystal Palace", and there are stone dragons on the bracket stones.

While he was still admiring the archway and palace complex, brother and sister Zhang Tiansu and Zhang Tianzhen had already sunk to the bottom and started queuing up behind a large group of monks.

When Qin Mu sank to the bottom and came to their side, Zhang Tiansu said to him, "Except for some famous cultivators who were personally invited by the Dragon Palace, everyone else must line up here."

Qin Mu leaned forward to take a look at the "queue of people" in front of him, frowned and said in a voice transmission: "There are so many people, how long will it take to queue up?"

Zhang Tiansu smiled and transmitted, "Don't worry, Your Excellency. It will be our turn soon. We just need to register our names and gifts. It will be quick."

While he was speaking, an old man and two young cultivators whose cultivation levels were unknown landed behind Qin Mu.

Fearing that they might notice the voice transmission, Qin Mu and the brother and sister stopped chatting and waited quietly.

Just as Zhang Tiansu said, after about a quarter of an hour, there were only four monks left in front of them.

After Zhang Tiansu and Zhang Tianzhen registered their names and gifts, Qin Mu stepped forward and stood in front of a long table. Behind the table sat a monster with a human head and a turtle body, wearing a bright red official robe.

The other party didn't even look at him, but just pointed at the paper roll on the table.

Qin Mu subconsciously looked at the paper roll, only to see that the other end of the paper roll was already on the ground, and it was very thick.

He took a quick look and then looked away. He picked up the brush beside him and wrote the name "Li Dabai" on the paper. Then he wrote a ball of "甲木精华" on the line of gift.

After the goblin took a look at his gift, a warm smile immediately appeared on his expressionless face, and he said to a shrimp soldier about two meters tall standing by: "Escort the distinguished guest to the side hall of No. C45."

Qin Mu, who was about to put down his pen, continued to write down "a ball of Geng gold essence, a ball of Bing fire essence, a ball of Wu earth essence, and a ball of Ren water essence" after hearing this sentence. He then imitated the cultivator before him and took out these five balls of essence as big as a human head directly from the Qiankun Realm.

When the monster behind the case saw this scene, his eyes widened instantly, and his originally enthusiastic smile immediately turned into flattering. After waving his sleeves to take away the five balls of essence, he hurriedly stood up and made a gesture of invitation.

"Please enter the A32 Hall!"

The shrimp soldier also came forward flatteringly, nodding and bowing to lead him to catch up with Zhang Tiansu and Zhang Tianzhen, brother and sister, and came to the Crystal Palace together. What caught their eyes was a palace gate several meters high, covered by a layer of light blue water curtain with ripples on it.

After a few people passed through the water curtain, they saw two shrimp soldiers standing on both sides, about the same height as ordinary people, with green armor on their backs, forks in their hands, and lobster heads on their heads.

Qin Mu looked around with curiosity, and saw pearl curtains hanging on both sides, which were three meters high and more than ten meters long.

Through the gaps in the bead curtain, one could see corals and rocks behind the curtain, with jewels inlaid on them shining brightly. There was no end in sight. More than a dozen beautiful clam girls, wearing gauze and with their crystal clear clam shells spread out like wings, stood among the rocks and looked at them curiously.

There is a crystal roof above the head, and huge octopuses and dragons swim by from time to time. When the water ripples, the light of the water shines through the crystal roof onto the ground paved with glazed tiles.

When the water sways, you can see that the gaps between the glazed bricks are filled with gold.

A few feet ahead is a nine-story staircase made of white jade. On the steps, there is a jade table and a coral couch. On both sides, there are two clam girls holding huge oval palm fans, and the fan surfaces seem to be woven with gold threads.

Behind the clam girl is a high wall made of mutton-fat jade with thousands of flying dragons carved on it. The dragon eyes are embellished with jewels and the dragon scales are inlaid with gold, agate and jadeite.

The scenery on the right is almost the same as on the left, except that the bead curtain is not as long as the one on the left. There is a screen with a hundred flowers blooming near the mutton-fat jade wall. (End of this chapter)
