Chapter 1699 East China Sea Dragon Palace
After happily playing with the Tongtian Jianmu for a while, Zhang Qian put it away, returned to his Qingyun, and disappeared with the Qingyun.
Now that he has refined and controlled the Tongtian Jianmu, Zhang Qian no longer needs the Chaos Pearl to devour the vitality of creation. With just a thought, the vitality of creation transformed from the Tongtian Jianmu will continuously flow into the Chaos Pearl, infused into the twelve eggs of gods and demons, and promote the growth of the twelve innate gods and demons within them.
"When Hongjun lost power, not only did his vast luck disappear, but even his own favor from the heavens was shared by everyone. This favor from the heavens is incredible."
Squinting his eyes, Zhang Qian walked into the palace on top of Chi'ao's head and thought.
The most important thing for Hongjun is the favor of heaven. Without the favor of heaven, he will not have much advantage compared with other innate gods.
For innate great gods like Pangu and the Three Pure Ones, it is no exaggeration to say that their foundation and resources are superior to those of Hongjun, but Pangu and the Three Pure Ones did not receive the same favor from heaven as Hongjun.
If they were favored by heaven, they would have stood at the top of the world long ago.
Sensing carefully, Zhang Qian could feel that the energy of Heaven flowing from Hongjun was flowing towards him in strands. Although it was extremely subtle, it was clearly visible.
As for the luck that had flowed away from Hongjun, he didn't take it too seriously. He carefully felt the favor from heaven. After a long while, he suddenly opened his eyes and sighed deeply.
"I see. Is this the secret of Heaven's favor?"
His gaze became vague, and after careful contemplation, he discovered that with the favor of Heaven, his perception of the various laws of the prehistoric world became incomparably clear. It was extremely difficult for ordinary people to capture the fluctuations of the laws of the universe. It was not an exaggeration to say that it all depended on luck and chance.
However, with a small bit of favor from Heaven, one can capture the fluctuations of the laws that he needs with just a thought, and thus easily comprehend the mystery of a certain law.
In addition, through this favor from heaven, he could vaguely sense some extremely illusory images, which were not clear even if he concentrated his mind.
However, the precious light in the images allowed Zhang Qian to see them clearly. These extremely blurry images were clearly the spiritual treasures hidden in various places in the prehistoric world.
"No wonder Hongjun has such a huge amount of treasures. It turns out that with the favor of Heaven, he can automatically sense the spiritual treasures hidden in various places in the prehistoric world. I only received a small amount of Heaven's favor, and I can have such a miraculous sense. Hongjun has received a huge favor from Heaven. Doesn't it mean that he can see all the spiritual treasures in the prehistoric world in an instant?"
Thinking of this, Zhang Qian was surprised. He had to say that Hongjun's advantage was too great. If so many powerful people had not joined forces to attack him this time, the outcome would be unpredictable.
"Zhulong, Fengzu, Zulong, Jitiandi, Panzu, Gaixianfan, Chi'ao, Wanwuyi, and I have all received a small portion of the favor of the heaven. Does this mean that the future saints will be born from among us?"
Zhang Qian frowned. These people, including himself, faced Hongjun directly and worked together to cut off Hongjun's path and share the benefits that Hongjun had lost with those favored by Heaven.
Moreover, each of them is extremely talented, and their foundation is all at the top level in the prehistoric world. Now they are favored by heaven, and the future saint may really be born from these people.
"If this is true, then it will be interesting. I wonder if those great masters of the prehistoric world who did not participate in this battle will regret it."
Only the strong ones who participated in the siege of Hongjun received the favor of heaven, but those powerful people in the prehistoric times who watched the battle secretly did not.
"It's a pity that this favor from Heaven is too little, so I can't see the appearance of those spiritual treasures clearly, otherwise..."
He pondered, thinking about how to get more favor from heaven. He now realized that favor from heaven was almost the same as cheating, or even cheating.
Fortunately, Hongjun was defeated this time. His luck and favor from heaven will continue to be lost, and everything he loses will be divided equally among all the strong people in this battle.
The longer time goes by, the shallower Hongjun's foundation will become, while the foundation of everyone else will become stronger. As one gains while the other loses, who knows what the future will be like.
Just as Zhang Qian was thinking about it, Chi'ao flew towards the Dragon Palace in the East China Sea at an extremely fast speed.
Zulong and his companions had already gone ahead, and they should be returning to the Dragon Palace soon. With Chi'ao hurrying along at full speed, the vast East China Sea Eye was in sight in a short while.
Zhulong had already told Zhang Qian the location of the Dragon Palace in the East China Sea. This was the first time that Zhang Qian knew the location of the Dragon Palace in the East China Sea.
It was right next to the East China Sea Eye.
When the Chi'ao flew near the eye of the East China Sea, Zhang Qian had an idea, and the huge Chi'ao let out a low roar and dived into the sea below.
The direction where one enters the water is outside the sea eye, tens of thousands of miles away from the sea eye, but the sea surface here is also affected by the sea eye, it is as smooth as a mirror, without a trace of waves.
Pfft!
Chi'ao dived into the sea, and endless amounts of sea water surged in, all of which were separated by the magic circle on Chi'ao's back.
It swam straight downwards like a huge rock sinking to the bottom of the sea.
The ocean here was extremely deep, and Chi'ao fell straight down. It took him more than three hours to finally land near the bottom of the sea.
"Is this the Dragon Palace in the East China Sea?"
Suddenly, a dazzling aqua-blue halo flashed below, and in the halo, there were countless magnificent aquatic creatures swimming around.
There are also teams of shrimp soldiers and crab generals patrolling back and forth.
Roar……!
Seeing those shrimp soldiers and crab generals, Chi'ao let out a low roar, and all the nearby aquatic creatures looked over immediately. After seeing Chi'ao, those shrimp soldiers and crab generals all bowed down in unison.
"We are here to pay our respects to the Emperor Zhongji!"
"Hmm? Is this Zulong's order?"
Zhang Qian appeared and nodded. This was the first time he met these small fry. The fact that they recognized him was obviously something Zulong had instructed them to do in advance.
From among the endless swarms of shrimp soldiers and crab generals, a water creature wearing a turtle shell flew out, reminding Zhang Qian of the legend of the Prime Minister Turtle. It seems that the legend is not just a legend, there really is a Prime Minister Turtle in the Dragon Palace.
The turtle prime minister waved his claws, and the shrimp soldiers and crab generals gathered here dispersed, leaving a straight waterway. At the end of the waterway was the endless East China Sea Dragon Palace.
Chi'ao followed Prime Minister Turtle and slowly approached the Dragon Palace of the East China Sea. After a while, Zhang Qian could clearly see the appearance of the Dragon Palace of the East China Sea through the hazy blue halo.
This is an endless palace complex. Each palace is azure blue except for the giant red pillars that support it. Between the palaces, there are crisscrossing coral reefs of strange shapes, and among them there are many rare and exotic animals roaming.
These rare and exotic animals were not found on earth. Colorful fish gathered in groups, and many of them glowed magically, illuminating the surrounding palaces with a bizarre light.
There is a huge archway in front of us, with four Taoist characters of the East China Sea Dragon Palace listed on it, giving off a terrifying Taoist spirit and bursts of dragon power.
The dragon's might made countless aquatic creatures near the Dragon Palace dare not approach. Behind the archway, there were countless palaces distributed in thirty-six shapes, sixty-four pavilions, and one hundred and eight palaces.
When he got close to the archway, Zhang Qian took a look and was shocked to find that this huge archway was actually carved entirely from the innate brocade blue fairy stone. The innate brocade blue fairy stone is unique to the East China Sea and is only found in the fairy mines deep under the sea. It is rarely seen. However, this entire archway is carved from a single piece of fairy stone.
