Chapter 341: The Water God, Calling the Wind and Rain

Chapter 341: The Water God, Calling the Wind and Rain

There is a record in "Soushen Ji": "Beyond the South China Sea there are mermaids, who live in water like fish, but never stop weaving. When they cry, pearls come out of their eyes."

According to legend, the mermaids were good at weaving and could make dragon yarn that was impervious to water and could turn tears into beads.

In the famous work "Brocade Zither" by Tang poet Li Shangyin, the line "The moon is bright over the sea, and the pearls are shedding tears" refers to the legend of the mermaid.

Cao Jie tested the depth of the mermaid Princess Amemiya and found that she was indeed a mermaid with a trace of dragon blood, Run!

East China Sea, on the pure white sand beach.

After exploring the mermaid princess inside and out, Cao Jie discovered that she actually had a little magic power in her body. Almost every mermaid has a little water magic power. Perhaps this is why they can weave water cloth.

"Have you ever practiced Taoism?" Cao Jie asked.

"Your Majesty, I have never practiced cultivation. I only know a little bit of the mermaid's water magic. The human race is blessed by nature, and the abilities of the cultivators are hundreds of times stronger than the meager abilities of us water people." Princess Yu Gong said softly, "We mermaids are vassals of the human race and rely on the Great Wei to ensure our safety..."

While playing with it, Cao Jie continued to ask, "Are there no monks among you mermaids?"

If even the princess doesn't have a way to practice cultivation, then there are probably no mermaids practicing cultivation in the entire Mermaid Kingdom.

As expected, the blushing Princess Amemiya said, "If we can only find one cultivator among the human race, even if we have millions of people in the aquatic race, it would be difficult to find one. Especially us mermaids, we are not good at temperament and lack the heart to pursue the Tao. We can only rely on our natural ability to control water to resist the disasters in the sea. Moreover, ordinary mermaids are not smart enough and do not know the Chinese characters in the Middle Earth. Even if we want to practice, it is difficult..."

In front of the Emperor of Wei, the princess of the tiny mermaid country dared not lie at all and told everything.

After learning about the true situation of the Mermaid Kingdom, Cao Jie was not disappointed. He took out the colorful mermaid silk wrapped around his chest and asked, "Can you weave this?"

When the mermaid princess saw the mermaid silk, her eyes lit up immediately and she said, "Your Majesty, the Taiping Sea Kingdom has no rare treasures except this mermaid silk, which is a rare treasure woven by our mermaid daughters with their skillful hands. It best shows the intelligence and grace of our sea clan daughters. Although I am not as good as the best weaver in my clan, the mermaid silk I weave is also good enough."

"It's good stuff. I'll make you an official in charge of weaving in the Sea Country. All the mermaid silk woven by your mermaids will be in our hands. We can exchange it for supplies, weapons, or even cultivation techniques."

"Really?" Princess Amemiya's eyes lit up.

"The emperor's words are more powerful than nine tripods. From today on, you will be a fifth-rank official of the Wei Dynasty. You will be responsible for supervising the production and procurement of silk fabrics such as shark silk for the palace."

Weavers like the mermaids are rare in the world!
It's just the right time to contribute to the prosperity of the Great Wei Dynasty.

This mermaid silk is woven with real water and has a special water spirituality. Whether it is tailored into Taoist robes or refined into magical instruments of the Qimen, it is an excellent material for practitioners.

The Wei army was in great need of such treasures.

But in Cao Jie's eyes, the quality of this acquired true water was still too poor and it was unusable in the hands of high-level cultivators.

“If you can comprehend the innate true water, and weave any one of the seven true waters into a shark silk, you can create a superior spiritual material that can be used to refine a true magic weapon.”

Refining water into silk, weaving and spinning. If the seven kinds of innate true water are truly condensed, it is entirely possible to spin spiritual materials that are a hundred times more outstanding than the shark silk. It can even be woven into magic weapons, which are different from all the magic weapons in the world and have achieved an independent school, which is very rare.

As Cao Jie holds the Yu Ding, a treasure of the Water Divine Dynasty, his thinking immediately broadened.

He immediately set himself a small task. Using the mermaid's method of refining water and combining it with the Yu Ding magical power he had mastered, he realized a method of condensing innate true water.

There are seven kinds of true water, and it doesn’t matter which one you choose.

Taiyin True Water, Xiantiankui Water, Tianyi True Water, Yiyuan Heavy Water, Xuanming True Water, Tianhe Weak Water, Merit and Pure Water, each has infinite uses. It can be transformed into the source of life and nourish the spirit.

In order to condense these seven kinds of true water, one needs not only great magical powers but also great opportunity.

Even if other masters can condense real water, their speed is far inferior to Cao Jie who controls the Yu Ding.

Even the Golden Mother of Tianyi, the ancient golden immortal, only left a gourd of Tianyi True Water in Ziyun Palace. Emei has accumulated it for thousands of years, but there is no true water left. It is necessary to go to Ziyun Palace to get it in order to dissolve the magic mud that seals the Nanming Lihuo Sword.

Cao Jie obtained the Yu Ding and successfully refined it with the luck of the Divine Dynasty. Although his combat power did not increase much, his ability to control water was pushed to the maximum level.

By the way, the maximum level of fisherman's appearance was upgraded to several levels and reached the [Water God] stage.

[Soul aspect: Water God (the god who controls water, in charge of water)]

[Experience: Level 1 (7/10000)]

[Talent: Call the Wind and Rain LV1 ( Heavenly Gang Techniques)]

Among the 36 Tiangang techniques, calling the wind and rain can summon strong winds, heavy rain, or even disperse the clouds and stop the rain. It can also cause heavy snow or frost, and move clouds and rain.

Don't think this description is simple and any dragon can do it.

Being included in the Thirty-Six Tiangang Methods, this supernatural power is not simple. It is a rule-based supernatural power that is superior to all other spells.

For example, if the Dragon God is in charge of rain, Cao Jie can use a move called “Call the Wind and Summon the Rain” to disperse the clouds and stop the rain.

Having acquired this magical power, Cao Jie immediately put it to the test.

The seven true waters each have their own mysteries.

Cao Jie is in charge of Yu Ding, manages water, and practices the Treasure Moonlight King, which makes him perfect for refining the Taiyin True Water, achieving twice the result with half the effort.

Another night passed, dawn broke in the east, and a sun rose.

Cao Jie mobilized his magic power, took back his supernatural powers, and collected moonlight for seven consecutive days. Finally, he was able to extract real water.

The Yu Ding was constantly rotating, and a drop of real water as clear as moonlight condensed in the palm of his hand and was stored in the Yu Ding.

With a slight shake, the tripod seemed to be as light as a ball, but in the sunlight, it exuded a moonlit color.

Cao Jie smiled, thinking that these few days of hard work were worth it.

Taiyin True Water, one of the seven true waters in the world, is clear and transparent, pure and spotless, and has the purest essence. After all, it is transformed by the power of moonlight and Taiyin, and has the virtue of lightness, purity and femininity. Unlike Tianyi True Water, which is also listed as one of the seven true waters in the world, it is heavy. A drop of it will form a lake or river.

Although there was only one drop of Taiyin True Water, which seemed too little, Gun Monster, who was captured and sent to serve as the emperor's mount, looked at the water that looked like moonlight and drooled. Monsters refine moonlight to increase their magic power. If this drop of Taiyin True Water was given to Gun Monster, it would immediately dissolve his cross-bone and transform into a human. Even if there was enough Taiyin True Water, he could completely transform himself and no longer be a monster, and could directly enter the righteous path.

In the world of cultivation, such a treasure is extremely difficult to create without chance. It takes hundreds of years of hard work to collect only three or five drops. It is impossible for Cao Jie to condense a drop in just a few days.

"If one law is understood, all laws will be understood. Although these seven ways of true water are independent of each other, the inner collection and refining are of the same origin..."

"With the support of Taiping Sea Kingdom, our Great Wei has also established a foothold in the Shushan World. That overseas land is just right for me to explore."

Right in the territory of the mermaids, there is a sea eye, on which the senior master Tianyi Jinmu built a cave called Ziyun Palace.

Tianyi Jinmu had already ascended to the upper realm a long time ago and left no disciples to pass on her legacy. In fact, the ownership of this huge treasure is very complicated.

The Ziyun Palace is rich in resources, with white jade flowers and rare herbs planted everywhere, as well as Ganoderma lucidum, as well as various rare and magical medicines such as jade liquid, banana preserves, coral paste, and green cherry and purple marrow.

But Cao Jie would never take these things seriously. The things he was interested in included the Sea Eye where the Dique Immortal Palace of Ziyun Palace was located, the Tianyi True Water that could help him practice the Supreme Water Method, and the treasures of the other Golden Mothers and immortals, which could only be counted as half. Even this half was mostly counted as a secret treasure that could resist the strong winds and fires and could help one survive the catastrophe. The rest were just like rubble, and he didn't care about gains or losses.

Cao Jie sorted out the information in his mind one by one.

Ever since he mastered the Yu Ding, he knew that this place called the Eye of the Ocean was a paradise for him.

Now the Taiyin True Water has been refined, although because it is still a short time, there are only a few drops, but all things are difficult at the beginning. As long as we can find a treasure land and condense the seven kinds of true water, it is very possible to push the water magic to the peak.

Cao Jie already knew the difference in impact of different places of practice on cultivation.

Wealth couple, law and land, both are indispensable.

When Cao Jie had this idea, he began to think about it. Ziyun Palace would have been a very suitable place, but the three owners of this fairy palace all had a close relationship with Emei. As the vagrant residence of Master Lianshan and the former residence of the immortal Earth Mother a thousand years ago, the Earth Mother gave Ziyun Palace to Changmei Zhenren and left a note in the treasure crystal column. The original owner of this palace, Tianyi Jinmu, also left Ziyun Palace to Changmei Zhenren because of a favor.

According to the rules of heaven, this is a house owned by Emei. Although it has a five-hundred-year relationship with Ziyun Palace because of the relationship between the three women of Ziyun Palace and the maids under the seat of Golden Mother, the ownership is clear after all. If Emei had not been timid and acted not in an upright manner, and failed to show the demeanor of the owner of the fairy palace, it would not have been criticized later.

It's like a courtyard house in Beijing. The property rights belong to the previous owner, but due to some things, the house was left to be occupied by the servants of the previous owner. Later, after the settlement was completed, you can take the property certificate to claim it back. If there is a dispute, you can go to court to sue (fight with swords and magic) and get the house back!

He just sent his own child to borrow soy sauce, and after being ignored, he broke in directly. Because someone had ulterior motives and wanted to plot against him, he broke the leg of the other person's cat. In the end, the two families fell out and the house was taken back.

Although it makes sense, it is not entirely correct.

This kind of property rights are unclear. Not only are there people without property rights occupying the house, but there are also people with property rights who are concerned about the house. Cao Jie would never get involved in such trouble.

If you want to seize the fortune of the world in the future, it would be a bad idea to fall out with the upright people represented by Emei now.

Not to mention that Tianyi Jinmu is still in heaven and has not yet entered a state of calamity. The original owner of the house is still there. If you don't want to be involved in the cause and effect, it is better to escape early.

So as to avoid being like Lianshan, who had to use his own remains and treasures to offset the cause and effect.

In the human world, the ownership of this house is not clear, but for Tianyi Jinmu, the cause and effect are extremely clear.

The immortal couple Lianshan and Dimu were tenants who came here under the name of Emei, and later left the treasures of Yueer Island as rent. The three women of Ziyun Palace temporarily lived there for 500 years because of a past friendship. Their disciples Qi Lingyun and others who had transformed themselves into Emei disciples, became Emei's disciples, and because of the promise they had made to Immortal Changmei, they were the owners who had the right to use the immortal palace.

Cao Jie understood the cause and effect of this matter, so he gave up his plan to occupy Ziyun Palace.

Unless he could first recruit Qi Lingyun and others as his disciples, or simply find the reincarnations of the five daughters of the Golden Mother and the Five Lakes Narcissus and recruit them as his disciples, he would be able to compete with Emei for the ownership of the fairy palace.

It’s so complicated. I think it would be easier to open another immortal palace.

"Let Zhang Shun hang out in Ziyun Palace for now."

"There are many sea eyes in the East China Sea. Just find one and practice."

However, Cao Jie didn't want to cause trouble, but the women in Ziyun Palace were troublemakers.

The Great Wei Dynasty divided the Taiping Sea Kingdom into a vassal state, which had nothing to do with the Ziyun Palace, but they just wanted to oppose it, and Zhang Shun's mediation was useless.

It is said that the three Palace Masters of Ziyun Palace were blessed with the fortunes of celestial beings.

Unfortunately, they all committed suicide one by one, wasting their good fortune and even bringing disaster upon themselves in the end.

If it weren't for the protection of the two elders of Songshan, there would be no chance of reincarnation.

Chu Feng originally had some aspirations to practice Taoism, and initially planned to build a foundation as a celestial being, with good intentions.

But everyone's fortune is limited, and Chufeng and Jinxunu's efforts alone cannot change their fate. In addition, the Taoism they learned is not the authentic Xuanmen, so Sanfeng and Dongxiu often cause trouble outside, act recklessly, and make enemies constantly. Jinxunu and Erfeng also lost their Yuanyang and Yuanyin because Sanfeng released the demon to harm Jinxunu, and many obstacles were encountered.

After all, the sisters were very close. Chu Feng made a big mistake in helping her two sisters. She was persuaded to practice magic and lost her way. Then she realized that there was no hope for immortality and that everything was hard to force. So she changed her mind and decided to be an underwater immortal. She warned everyone not to ask about external affairs from now on and to focus on rectifying the Pearl Palace and Beique, and rebuilt a Purple Cloud Palace with magic power.

Countless rare grasses and flowers were transplanted from the holy lands of the ten continents and three islands, and many rare birds and beasts were tamed. A magic array was set up in front of the palace, and the sea surface was blocked to prevent the enemy from invading.

There is also a corridor over a thousand miles long opened from the palace gate at the back garden, leading directly from underground to the surface of an island. There are ambushes at every level, and no one, whether immortal or mortal, can enter without permission.

He assigned all the disciples he had recruited from outside to work as stewards, with the duties of refining elixirs, taming animals, weeding flowers, and collecting herbs. Chu Feng was the master of the entire palace, so it was no problem. He thought that there was another world in the sea where he could practice and live forever.

Who knows that things in the world are often like the breeze that starts from the tip of an apple tree, unexpectedly. Once a cause is sown, the result will be reaped. No matter how hard you try, it will all be in vain.

As the three women of Ziyun did at that time, they stayed indoors and hid the entire palace deep under the sea, with a net of traps set up that was stronger than a wall of iron or copper. No one could invade them. Yet, they happened to open up a corridor so that they could live freely.

Therefore, the refining of the Divine Sand Corridor came about.

There were three phoenixes who secretly murdered the Taoist immortal Lu Rongbo and made him a slave for decades.

Everything in creation has cause and effect.

No wonder they were all killed by Emei.

Now he has fallen into the hands of the Wei Dynasty again, and the remaining year of happy time has come to an end.
