935 The Ancient Races Are Too Narrow-Minded (2)
Feng Wuâs heart turned cold. âLord, you must be joking. Our griffin race travels the world based on our reputation. Even without a contract, I definitely wouldnât do such a thing.
âI will definitely not let you down, Lord. I will definitely sell this treasure to the golden-winged roc race. Lord, just wait for my good news!â
He opened his mouth to swallow the thing in his arms. Then he bowed to Zhou Shu again, spread out the wings on his back, and soared into the sky with a woosh. With a few flaps of his wings, he had already disappeared from Zhou Shuâs vision.
There are really many winged races among these ancient races. Theyâre all like birdmen, Zhou Shu thought.
!!
Since coming to ancient times, he had only seen a few races. Apart from the giant spirit race and the fire race, most of the other races had wings on their backs. This was very different from later generations.
Boom!
A loud bang came from behind. Zhou Shu turned around and saw the fire phoenixâs figure suddenly expand before quickly retracting. In the end, it disappeared, and Lingâer appeared in his vision again.
She didnât look much different from before, except for a strand of fiery red hair on her forehead.
She looked confused, as if she still hadnât figured out what had happened.
âLingâer?â Zhou Shu called her tentatively.
Lingâer looked over. âMaster.â
Hearing her speak, he heaved a sigh of relief. Fortunately, Lingâer didnât become a different person.
âMaster, I feel like Iâm about to become a big bird. What should I do?â Lingâer frowned.
The corners of Zhou Shuâs mouth curled up slightly as he laughed. âItâs okay. This is because you have mastered an ability. You wonât really become a big bird.â
âNo, I will really change,â Lingâer said seriously. Before she could finish speaking, she really turned into a bird with a bang!
No, she didnât turn into a bird. She turned into a fire phoenix with flames all over!
Zhou Shu was dumbfounded. This is the power of a true spirit?
Could Lingâerâs true form be a phoenix?
Is she a human or a demonic beast?
No, sheâs neither a human nor a demonic beast. Sheâs a member of the fire race.
Thinking of this, Zhou Shu accepted it. The ancient races were neither humans nor demonic beasts.
The fire phoenix flapped its wings and flew around Zhou Shu while shouting, âMaster, look, Iâve really become a bird!â
Zhou Shu found it very interesting. âThen, can you still become Lingâer?â
âEven if I become a bird, Iâll still be Lingâer. Master, youâre wrong!â Lingâer said. Fire flashed on her body, and then she became a cute little girl again.
âMaster, is this because of the cultivation techniques you taught me?â Lingâer asked curiously.
âNo,â Zhou Shu said. âThis is the innate ability in your bloodline. Lingâer, have you remembered your own identity?â
âMaster, did you become stupid? I am Lingâer,â Lingâer said in puzzlement.
Zhou Shu rolled his eyes. Only Lingâer would dare to say such things to him. If it were anyone else, he would have beaten them up so badly that no one would be able to recognize them.
âYouâre Lingâer, but youâre also the little princess of the fire race,â Zhou Shu said.
âFire race? No, Iâm from the giant spirit race. Look at how big I amâ¦â Lingâer was confused.
âAll ancient races are big,â Zhou Shu said helplessly. It seemed that Lingâer didnât have a clear understanding of her identity. Although she could become a fire phoenix, she still thought that she was a giant spirit.
Zhou Shu shook his head and said, âWhether youâre from the giant spirit race or the fire race, youâre my good disciple.â
Lingâer was not conflicted about her identity to begin with, and she suddenly said mysteriously, âMaster, let me give you a gift.â
âGive me a gift?â Zhou Shu looked at Lingâer in surprise as an idea flashed through his mind.
Feng Wu had just said that the reason the fire race was destroyed was that the golden-winged roc race, the silver scale race, and the bai ze race coveted a treasure of the fire race. Now that Lingâer had just awakened the Fire Phoenix True Spirit, she immediately wanted to give him a gift.
Zhou Shu couldnât help thinking of this.
âThereâs no need.â Zhou Shu shook his head. âKeep it for yourself. Donât take out the thing so casually. I donât lack good things.â
He was a little curious about the fire raceâs treasure, but it belonged to Lingâer. How could he snatch something from his disciple?
âThatâs no good,â Lingâer said seriously. âMaster, you taught me how to cultivate. How can I not give you a gift?
âDaddy taught me not to benefit from others for no reason.â
Zhou Shu shook his head. âIâm not anyone else. Iâm your master.â
âBut I have to give you a gift for you to acknowledge me as your disciple. Otherwise, why would you take me in as your disciple?â Lingâer said with a serious expression.
With that, she raised her hand high. A flame flickered, and something appeared in her palm.
This⦠Zhou Shuâs pupils constricted. There was actually a Divine Stone in Lingâerâs palm!
The treasure coveted by the golden-winged roc race, the silver scale race, and the bai ze race is a Divine Stone?
Although the Divine Stone is precious, it shouldnât attract the covetous eyes of the three races, right?
Itâs not that precious.
âMaster, I found this in my stomach when I became a big bird,â Lingâer said mysteriously. âI think itâs a good thing, but itâs useless for me to keep it. Master, will you accept it?â
âItâs a Divine Stone. Itâs indeed useful to me.â Zhou Shu nodded.
It was just a Divine Stone. It was indeed useless in Lingâerâs hands.
But in his hands, he could use it to forge a grotto-heaven divine weapon.
But arenât Divine Stones the product of Grotto-Heaven realm experts refining the heavens into stones?
Ten thousand years ago, spiritual essence cultivation had yet to appear. Why would a Divine Stone appear?
Zhou Shu was a little puzzled. Could it be that a Grotto-Heaven realm expert appeared in the fire race, causing them to be exterminated?
...
It wasnât impossible. The ancient races were extremely talented. If they had cultivation techniques, their cultivation speed would be unimaginably fast.
After the Giant Spirit King, Cang Huan, obtained the Eight-Nine Arcane Art, he had cultivated to the Earth Immortal realm in a day. This speed was almost unimaginable in the future.
The ancient races are really narrow-minded. For a Divine Stone, they actually caused such a commotion.
Zhou Shu reached out and picked up the Divine Stone in Lingâerâs hand. âIâll accept this Divine Stone. It just so happens that I can use it to forge a grotto-heaven divine weapon for you. As my disciple, how can you not have a grotto-heaven divine weapon?â
Zhou Shu smiled. Without the Divine Stone, even he couldnât make bricks out of straw. Ordinary connate divine weapons were not worthy of Lingâer at all.
Lingâer blinked and asked, âMaster, what is a grotto-heaven divine weapon?â
âGrotto-heaven divine weapons are good things.â Zhou Shu smiled. âThis Divine Stone is nothing great. Only those bumpkins who have never seen the world would think itâs special.â
Zhou Shu held the Divine Stone in his hand, his heart full of disdain for the golden-winged roc race, the silver scale race, and the bai ze race.
