Who Told Him To Cultivate Immortality!

Chapter 98: What did Engraved Boat ask for?

(Thank you to my book friend, Kui Zhu.)

Lan Ting was used to meditating instead of sleeping at night. Ever since she joined the barbeque shop, she had developed a good habit of sleeping at night.

When the four of them woke up, they felt refreshed and refreshed. This was partly due to Lan Ting's array.

"Let's go out and play, I haven't had enough!" Meng Jingzhou was the most energetic. He woke Lu Yang up from bed like a pig.

Lu Yang kicked Meng Jingzhou before reluctantly getting out of bed.

Brutal Bones went to the market early to stock up. He was the first to wake up.

Brutal Bones made a bowl of soup. He cracked four eggs and sprinkled a few drops of sesame oil. The aroma filled the entire hall.

Lu Yang liked to be jealous, so he added a small spoonful of vinegar to his bowl of soup. The four of them finished it and went out to play refreshed.

The four of them went out early, but there was already a large group of tourists on the streets. Lu Yang heard that the hostels were already full, so many people chose to stay in the guesthouse.

People's faces were filled with joy. Children were wearing tofu masks similar to Lu Yang's. They were jumping up and down with big windmills in their hands. Parents were holding their children's hands, afraid that they would get lost.

"It's as lively as a temple fair here."

"Did you hear? Someone brought a huge monster from the southern part of the continent. It's by the river. Let's go see it!" Someone said excitedly to his companions.

Meng Jingzhou couldn't hold back his curiosity and brought the three of them to the river to see the monster.

The four of them came to the familiar stone bridge, but this time they were standing on it. There were many small flags on both sides of the bridge.

Meng Jingzhou was a little disappointed when he saw the monster. "I thought it was something big. It's just an elephant."

The Hidden Dragon River was originally a place where tourists gathered every year. Now that someone brought an elephant from the southern part of the continent to show off, there were even more curious tourists.

Needless to say, Lu Yang must have seen an elephant before. Meng Jingzhou and Lan Ting were born in aristocratic families, so they had seen more strange things than Lu Yang. Brutal Bones lived in the wilderness and had even hunted an elephant before.

Normal people didn't have the experience of Lu Yang and the others. They were very interested in large animals like elephants.

"Is this a demonic beast? It's so big, and it even has such a long nose and teeth?"

The owner of the elephant was a Foundation Establishment stage cultivator. He explained, "It is indeed a demonic beast. The realm of demonic beasts is not easy to estimate. It is about the sixth level of Qi Refining. However, its size has nothing to do with demonic beasts. This kind of creature is called an elephant. After reaching adulthood, it will grow to this size."

The wanderer continued to ask, "Such a big creature, how heavy is it?"

The owner of the elephant laughed involuntarily. Who knew? There wasn't such a big scale to weigh it.

Another wanderer suggested, "This place is right next to the river. We can put the elephant on a big boat and mark the place where it touches the water. Then we can load the boat with stones and other things. When the marked place touches the water again, we can weigh the stones. Then we will know how heavy the elephant is."

The owner of the elephant also wanted to know how heavy his spiritual pet was, so he readily agreed.

Under the order of the owner, the elephant was driven to the boat. The elephant was too heavy, and the boat in the shallow water could not carry the elephant. The owner rowed the boat to the middle of the river. The owner took out a knife and made a cut on the surface of the water.

Just as the owner was about to swim back, the elephant inadvertently looked up and saw Brutal Bones. It was shocked.

Demonic beasts were the most sensitive to auras. The ancient barbarians often hunted elephants in the wilderness. This kind of fierce murderous aura flowed in their blood. Although the elephant did not understand the meaning, it felt a chill in its heart when it saw Brutal Bones. This was the suppression from the bloodline.

The elephant panicked and fell into the water, sinking to the bottom.

The people on the shore exclaimed and asked the elephant owner to save the elephant. Who would have thought that the elephant owner would calmly carve a mark at the place where the elephant fell and say, "This is where the elephant fell into the water."

The people on the shore didn't understand and the elephant owner didn't explain. When they were about to reach the shore, the elephant owner pointed at the mark and explained, "My elephant fell here and it's still here!"

Everyone laughed and thought that he was joking. Who would have thought that the river would churn and a whirlpool would appear. The elephant really flapped its two big ears and flew out from under the mark.

It was a specialty of the southern part of the mainland, a big flying elephant.

Brutal Bones saw this scene and frowned. Then, he suddenly realized and hammered his palm, "I remember now. I learned this idiom in class. It's called carving a boat to find an elephant!"

He now had a deep understanding of this idiom.

Lu Yang, "…"

What the hell did you learn in class?

Meng Jingzhou smiled and said, "I still remember that we found the first Life Reversal Talisman under the bridge. At that time, when we learned that there was such a thing as a Life Reversal Talisman, we were really shocked.

Lu Yang was about to joke along with Meng Jingzhou's words when he suddenly saw the small flag in front of him. His smile disappeared and he seemed to have thought of something. He pulled the small flag down and frowned, carefully studying it under the sunlight.

When Lu Yang saw the small flag under the sunlight, his heart turned cold.

"What's wrong?"

Meng Jingzhou noticed Lu Yang's expression. He didn't wait for Lu Yang to make fun of him and only then did he notice Lu Yang's abnormality.

Lu Yang's expression was solemn. He pointed at the faintly discernible pattern on the small flag and said, "Look at this pattern. What does it look like?"

"Life Reversal Talisman?!" Lan Ting was the first to react. She was the most familiar with this pattern.

Meng Jingzhou's eyes widened. The pattern on the small flag was very faint and couldn't be seen if it wasn't under the sunlight. Even if it could be seen, the tourists would only think that it was a Spring Festival feature. How many people would know the pattern of the Life Reversal Talisman?

"Don't panic. Maybe the Life Reversal Talisman hasn't been formed yet!" Meng Jingzhou convinced himself not to panic.

Lu Yang calmly analyzed, "Impossible. Don't forget that this small flag isn't just one or two small flags. The entire Yanjiang County has this kind of flag!"

Who would have thought that a small flag with the life-reversing talisman pattern was hidden in an ordinary small flag?

Lu Yang continued, "In other words, the Life Reversal Array has been completed. It's clearly displayed in front of everyone, but no one noticed it!"

"Why hasn't the life-reversing formation been activated?"

Meng Jingzhou recalled the conditions for activating the Life Reversing Origin Array. Other than using the Life Reversing Origin Talisman to set up the Life Reversing Origin Array, it also required blood as a sacrifice.

Those who dared to set up the Life Reversing Array could easily kill a few people. What was he waiting for?

Luyang coldly said, "He's waiting for someone. There aren't enough people gathering for the Spring Festival yet. There's still an endless stream of people rushing to Yanjiang County!"

The Life Reversing Array robbed the lifespan of mortals and converted it into the cultivation base of the person who set up the array. The more mortals it robbed, the greater the increase in cultivation base!

Meng Jingzhou also remembered, "According to the customs, on the second night of the Spring Festival, people will gather in the streets to sing and gather by the river for a feast and a song festival!"

Today was the second day of the Spring Festival.
