Chapter 129 The Bearded Man's Female Disciple
This isn't a joke, it's a recommendation for the treasure book "Mortal: The Number One Playboy in the Chaotic Star Sea":
Magic Lake Island is an unnamed island located near the edge of the Inner Star Sea.
The island has several lakes that produce a material called "emerald copper".
Because of the abundance of copper, all the lakes are emerald green, just like jade.
At that moment, a streak of light, as fast as lightning, stopped above the island.
"We've arrived. This is Magic Lake Island."
Qing Sanyang was dressed in a black robe and wore a mask.
Beside him was Qingfeng, dressed similarly.
"Father, Manhuzi is at the mid-Nascent Soul stage. If we could get him to join our Qingyang Sect, he would be a great asset."
Qingfeng held a kill list in his hand.
On the list, the bearded man's name was not marked with a red cross.
"I've dealt with that barbarian for years; he's incredibly stubborn. Subduing him won't be an easy task."
"Qing Sanyang said."
"Hehe, Dad, didn't you say this bearded guy especially loves to make bets? You can do this... this... and then that..."
Qingfeng put the list away and told his father about his plan.
"Hmm, hmm, not bad, that's a good idea. But the Barbarian Beard's lair is on Emerald Lake Island, what are we doing on Demon Lake Island?"
Qing Sanyang asked.
"Uh, Dad, would you believe me if I said there's a treasure trove hidden under this lake by a bearded man?"
Qingfeng pointed to the lake beneath them.
"You're saying there's treasure here?"
Qing Sanyang frowned.
He probed with his divine sense and discovered that the lake actually blocked the detection of divine sense.
"Dad, there's a pile of rocks at the bottom of this lake, and below it is the teleportation array for the entrance to the secret treasure cave."
Qingfeng knew that the Barbarian Beard's treasure trove was hidden here, but he didn't know the specifics.
The Demon Lake may not seem large, but it is still a hundred feet deep, and it would normally take some time to search for it.
Upon hearing this, Qing Sanyang raised an eyebrow and looked down at the emerald-green lake at his feet.
"This lake can block divine sense from probing. If you were to feel your way down inch by inch in the hundred-foot-deep lake, it would indeed take quite a while."
You said the teleportation array is among the rocks, but the lakebed is full of complex rocks; how can we find it quickly?
Qing Sanyang pondered for a moment.
"Hehe, Dad, the thunder magic you cultivate isn't just for killing enemies."
Qingfeng smiled slightly, a sly glint in his eyes.
"Oh? What do you mean?"
Qing Sanyang looked at Qing Feng.
"Lightning enters the water and flows with the current."
Qingfeng pointed to the lake below.
"You only need to use lightning magic to strike the lake with lightning, and let the current spread along the lake water."
When lightning strikes a reef, the conduction speed is different from that in water, so the feedback sensation will naturally be different as well.
"By attaching your divine sense to the lightning and carefully sensing the subtle changes, you can find the approximate location of the entrance teleportation array by noticing abnormal lightning feedback from the rock piles."
"You little brat, how did you even come up with such a clever trick?"
After hearing this, Qing Sanyang was taken aback at first, then a slight smile appeared on his face.
He had cultivated thunder magic for hundreds of years, always thinking only about how to use the power of thunder to defeat enemies and kill, but never thought of using it to explore and find treasures.
"Hey Dad, it was just a sudden inspiration, I thought I'd give it a try. Whether it works or not depends on your methods."
Qingfeng chuckled.
"it is good."
Qing Sanyang said no more.
He stood in mid-air, his black robes fluttering even without wind, and slowly raised his right hand.
"Sizzle—"
Blinding lightning burst forth from his palm, the brilliant arcs of electricity leaping and coiling like serpents.
"go!"
With a low shout, a thick bolt of lightning suddenly struck down, plunging straight into the emerald-green lake at his feet.
"Boom—"
The lake surface exploded, splashing water everywhere.
When lightning strikes water, it instantly transforms into countless fine electric currents, spreading wildly in all directions at a speed visible to the naked eye.
The once tranquil, emerald-green lake was instantly covered by countless crisscrossing bolts of lightning.
Qing Sanyang closed his eyes, and his consciousness sank to the bottom of the lake along with the spreading lightning.
The electric current diffuses evenly in the lake water, but when it encounters solid rocks, the speed of conduction and the fluctuations in the feedback do produce extremely subtle changes.
Ordinary cultivators wouldn't care about this difference, but Qing Sanyang was a powerful cultivator in the Nascent Soul stage with extremely keen divine sense.
Soon, he discovered an unusual place.
"Found it."
Qing Sanyang looked at Qingfeng beside him.
"Which direction?"
Qingfeng's face lit up with joy.
"In the southeast direction, deep at the bottom of the lake, there is a very dense pile of reefs."
"Qing Sanyang said."
"That must be where the entrance teleportation array is! Dad, let's go down!"
Qingfeng's eyes lit up, and he eagerly plunged into the lake, swimming towards that direction.
The bearded man's treasure trove is incredibly rich, conservatively estimated to contain millions of spirit stones.
There were also various materials, treasures, and ancient texts and secret techniques. Of course, what Qingfeng cared about most was that fist-sized piece of Geng essence.
……
At the same time that Qingfeng was raiding the base, two streaks of light descended on a deserted island thousands of miles away from Demon Lake Island.
The light dissipated, revealing a man and a woman.
The man was a bald, burly man with a face full of scars, and his entire body, including his clothes and robes, was gold.
The woman was dressed in red and had a striking appearance. She had a full bust and a pair of large, watery, almond-shaped eyes that were captivating and alluring.
"My little beauty, that old man with the bushy beard isn't home. Are you missing me again?"
The bald, burly man grabbed the female cultivator surnamed Cai and pulled her into his arms, using both hands simultaneously.
The beautiful female cultivator surnamed Cai gently tucked her hair behind her ear, allowing the burly man to take what he wanted.
"Senior Jin Hua, that old man is getting on in years and doesn't have much time left. He's no match for you!"
The female cultivator surnamed Cai had skin as white as snow, and wore a purple bracelet on her jade wrist.
"Hehe, little darling, it seems that the bearded man values you highly, even giving you this ancient treasure."
"Old Master Jin Hua joked."
"Hmph! That old bastard, nominally my master, but behind my back he forced me to become his concubine."
"Senior Jin Hua, when can you take me away?"
The female cultivator surnamed Cai nestled in the arms of the Golden Flower Ancestor.
The Golden Flower Ancestor's rough hands roamed over her waist, but a barely perceptible glint flashed in his eyes.
"Ahem, little beauty, don't be impatient. I'll find a chance to kill that old bastard, the bearded one."
Then his cave and everything he owns will be ours.
Old Ancestor Jin Hua narrowed her eyes.
Upon hearing the sweet words of the Golden Flower Ancestor, a hint of disgust flashed in the eyes of the female cultivator surnamed Cai.
Bah! You filthy men, not a single one of you is any good!
If it weren't for the fact that you, with your short lifespan, don't have a big beard, why would I have fallen for a rough guy like you?
"Little beauty, you've suffered because of that old man."
After a moment of contemplation, the Golden Flower Ancestor embraced the female cultivator surnamed Cai and sat down on the reef.
"Senior Jin Hua, that old man has recently gone into seclusion, and it will probably be for a long time."
Cai, a female cultivator She wrapped her arms around Old Ancestor Jin Hua's neck and whispered in his ear.
"Ha, he's nearing the end of his lifespan and is desperate. What's the use of seclusion for one or two decades? He still can't break through to the late Nascent Soul stage."
"Old Ancestor Jin Hua said disdainfully."
He was much younger than the Bearded Man, and once he killed the Bearded Man, he could seize all of the Bearded Man's inheritance through the woman in his arms.
