Chapter 85: Dragon Palace Imperial Conferment

Chapter 85: Dragon Palace Imperial Conferment
"Is that all?" Chen Mu raised one eyebrow, and understood a little.

In just a few words, he talked about things that were well known to the cultivators in this sea area. It was probably sold to outsiders like them. No wonder the price was so cheap...

Chen Mu muttered a few words inwardly, then noticed Guo Yuanzi mentioned the term "Spirit Heart Demon General" and asked, "Fellow Daoist Guo, I wonder what this Spirit Heart Demon General is?"

Guo Yuanzi chuckled when he heard this, flicked his beard, looked at Chen Mu and said, "Fellow Daoist, you are not a cultivator from the East China Sea, right? Otherwise, you wouldn't be unaware of the spiritual demon generals who are close to human cultivators."

Chen Mu became more and more curious and nodded, saying, "Chen is indeed not a sea cultivator. This trip is also a risky one to seek opportunities at sea."

He did not choose to hide his intentions, because rather than letting others guess his purpose, it would be better to directly portray himself as a casual cultivator who went out to sea for resources.

Guo Yuanzi looked as if he had expected this, and chuckled softly, "The sea is rich in resources, but it also carries dangers. I have seen many aspiring cultivators like Fellow Daoist Chen who dare to go out to sea, and I admire them greatly. So, regardless of success or failure, I wish you a safe return..."

“However, business still needs to be done… If fellow Daoist wants to know more about the Spirit Heart Demon General, this should be considered as a piece of information.”

After Guo Yuanzi congratulated her, he continued calmly. Actually, he had said such nice words countless times. There was no such thing as instant acquaintance or deep admiration. It was simply for business...

Chen Mu didn't care about the sincerity in Guo Yuanzi's words, but he still laughed in his heart, so he nodded in agreement.

"That's right, let's do as Fellow Daoist Guo said."

Guo Yuanzi smiled happily, and his white beard trembled as well.

"The Spirit Heart Demon General was originally an ordinary fish beast, but when he reached the Great Demon Realm, he unexpectedly awakened his bloodline inheritance and became the ancient Thousand Crane Heart-Searching Fish. From then on, he was unstoppable. Three hundred years later, he achieved the Golden Core Transformation Demon Cultivation. He was then appointed by the Dragon Palace as the Spirit Heart Demon General, in charge of a vast sea area..."

"Because the Spirit Heart Demon General transformed and went to the world of immortal cultivation to gain insights into the mundane world, he doesn't hate human cultivators like other demons do..."

"A Golden Core demon cultivator bestowed by the Dragon Palace..."

Chen Mu secretly clicked his tongue, a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes. Not long after arriving in the East China Sea, he had personally witnessed a golden elixir thunder tribulation. Now he had heard some news about the master of Chixia Island, Zhenren Hengyun, and the demon general Lingxin. When did there become so many golden elixir masters?

"From this perspective, Zhao State is truly a remote place..."

After thinking for a moment, Chen Mu suppressed the mixed thoughts in his mind and signaled Guo Yuanzi to return to the main topic and continue.

Guo Yuanzi had no objection and immediately began to slowly recount the events of the East China Sea.

Chen Mu listened to everything, but his brows furrowed even more.

It was because what Guo Yuanzi talked about over and over again were things that happened a long time ago, and the most recent one was the Qingyue Island incident he mentioned at the beginning.

After listening for a while, just when Chen Mu wanted to reach out to interrupt Guo Yuanzi, a slight knock on the door made him hold back.

Guo Yuanzi was also slightly startled, but then he smiled knowingly. He gave Chen Mu an apologetic look and said softly, "Don't blame me, fellow Daoist. It's the rule of the pavilion that after the main altar sends out a message, the heads of each branch pavilion must immediately verify its authenticity... Enter!"

Chen Mu's heart moved, and he watched calmly. He saw a servant walking in quietly, bending over and handing Guo Yuanzi a white jade slip.

After Guo Yuanzi took the jade slip, he sent the servant away, then smiled apologetically at Chen Mu and looked intently at the jade slip in his hand.

Chen Mu lowered his eyes slightly and waited pretending not to care.

After an incense stick of time, Guo Yuanzi put away the jade slip, with a hint of surprise in his eyes, and it seemed that he was digesting the information in the jade slip.

Not long after, his expression brightened, and he smiled broadly, saying, "Fellow Daoist, thank you for your patience... Among the news I just received, there is one that meets your requirements. Would you be willing to listen?"

"It's all for him..." A hint of joy welled up in Chen Mu's heart, and he nodded happily.

Seeing this, Guo Yuanzi slowly said: "Three days ago, the great demon Golden Armored Blue Crab under the command of Lingxin Demon General survived the golden elixir thunder tribulation and has become a transformed demon cultivator." "Golden Armored Blue Crab..." Chen Mu thought about the huge phantom he saw from afar that day, and asked after a moment.

"Under the command of the Spirit Heart Demon General? Now that he has become a Golden Core Demon Cultivator, can he still be commanded by others?"

Guo Yuanzi replied, "Of course not. According to previous practices, this newly transformed demon cultivator should be summoned to the Dragon Palace in the near future and be given the title of Demon General..."

Chen Mu was certain when he heard this, and nodded casually, indicating that Guo Yuanzi should say a few more messages.

After a moment, he showed a sense of completion and interrupted Guo Yuanzi.

"Fellow Daoist Chen has heard a total of seventeen messages on this trip. As previously stated, please pay five spirit stones."

Chen Mu nodded, paid the spirit stone, then stood up, bowed and walked out.

When he went out to take a look, he found that the young man who led the way had disappeared. He must have been afraid that Chen Mu would take back the spirit stone he had given him.

To be honest, he did not think that Baixiao Pavilion was collecting spirit stones indiscriminately. Instead, he felt that it was extremely worthwhile.

Because a newcomer can get a lot of information about this place by spending a few spirit stones, which saves a lot of effort.

Chen Mu shook his head and smiled, ignoring it. After walking around the busy streets twice, he headed towards Yinling Garden.

A moment later, under the guidance of the maid from Yinling Garden, he walked into the courtyard he rented.

Chen Mu took a quick look around and found that, just as he requested, there was a simple protective formation outside the simple courtyard, and there were several houses inside.

Manager Hu and his three companions were sitting around the stone table in the yard, talking non-stop. When they saw Chen Mu come in, they all looked at him.

Finally, it was Manager Hu who asked first: "Is everything going well, Junior Brother Chen?"

Chen Mu nodded after hearing this, and after walking over and sitting down, he told everyone about what he had gained from this trip...

After a moment, Fang Xiaopan frowned and said, "It's hard to hide from a Jindan demon cultivator, and now a Lingxin demon general suddenly appears."

Wu Xuanyang chuckled and said, "From what Fellow Daoist Chen said, the Spirit Heart Demon General has always been in charge of this vast sea area. How come he suddenly appeared?"

Manager Hu also nodded and said, "In my opinion, we don't need to worry about the Spirit Heart Demon General. He never stopped us during the previous treasure hunts, and I believe it will be the same this time."

"It's this new demon cultivator who couldn't find us at first, but I'm afraid that once his realm improves, it will be difficult for us to find him as easily as before..."

Li Hu suddenly shrieked, "Perhaps we can take advantage of the time when he goes to the Dragon Palace to be conferred the title..."

Wu Xuanyang and the other two fell into deep thought upon hearing this.

Seeing this, Chen Mu reminded him, "What Baixiao Pavilion said is not an immediate fact. It is still unknown when the Dragon Palace will be sealed. So even if we decide to take such action, we have to wait until the demon cultivators leave..."

Everyone nodded in succession, and after discussing for a while, they came to a conclusion.

"There is something that can be done. It just takes a while."

As for how long to wait, Chen Mu thought about it and set a deadline of one month. If they still didn't hear the news of the demon cultivator's departure after one month, they would return home and look for another opportunity...
