Chapter 165: Little Koi with Maxed-Out Luck
Qin Xuan amusedly rubbed Little Koi's head, smiling and teasing, "This is a life-saving measure your Master left for you; why give it to me?"
Little Koi shook her head, "I have no enemies, and I learned of a secret place from my Master where my sisters can find shelter. I have no use for this life-saving Talismanic Incantation. You, on the other hand, are viewed with hostility by the Third Prince and the Butian Holy Land. Having this Sacred Talisman on you will provide more security."
She pulled on Qin Xuan's large hand, stuffing the Sacred Talisman into his palm. Her water-clear eyes were full of clarity, "Let's keep looking for a way out."
Half a day later, Qin Xuan and Little Koi were still wandering inside the Kunpeng's stomach, unable to even distinguish north, south, east, or west.
Inside the small tower, Leng Li's complaining voice sounded again, "So what if you have an extra life-saving talisman? This thing can't even break through the Kunpeng's defenses. Wanting to leave this place is still a pipe dream."
"Qin Xuan, you are usually meticulous, but this time you've really tripped up because of this Little Koi."
"Now you possess a supreme treasure, yet it's completely useless. Little Koi's bit of luck has also reached its limit; even with the Heavenly Demon Scale's Legacy, you won't be able to escape the Kunpeng's belly."
Leng Li felt very annoyed.
Qin Xuan had inexplicably changed his route to come and save some Little Koi.
It caused her to be swallowed into the Kunpeng's belly as well.
Even something as strong as the Heavenly Demon Scale was trapped here, with no way to escape.
Let alone them?
Wanting to leave was like dreaming.
"Ouch!"
Little Koi, who was scouting ahead, stumbled and tripped over something.
She crouched down, touching the rock-hard flesh of the Kunpeng, and before long, picked up a milky-white stone.
"What is this?"
Little Koi's big eyes stared intently at the stone in front of her, tilting her head curiously, "Can this Kunpeng even eat stones?"
Qin Xuan's eyes widened, "This is an Immortal Stone!?"
He had previously obtained four Immortal Stones from the Butian Holy Land.
He had a clear understanding of such high-quality Immortal Stones.
He never dreamed he would encounter them in the Kunpeng's stomach.
And it was Little Koi's stumbling block!
Leng Li's urging voice sounded, "Give it to me. One more Immortal Stone can shorten the time it takes for me to refine the grand formation!"
"Here, take it." Little Koi trotted back to Qin Xuan's side and handed the Immortal Stone to him.
Qin Xuan looked at the Immortal Stone in his hand and emphasized, "Do you know the function of an Immortal Stone? You just give it away like that?"
Little Koi nodded matter-of-factly, "I know. Ever since you told me this was an Immortal Stone, I've known. Immortal Stones can be used to Cultivate; each one is equivalent to hundreds of thousands of supreme Yuan Stones. Even for someone in the Saint King Realm, it would be difficult to absorb the massive energy within in a few years. They can also be used as the core for grand formations, which even Sacred Artifacts would struggle to destroy."
As the seventh sister among the Seven Pearls of Mingyue, she didn't like going out, but she loved soaking in the treasure vault of the Mingyue Dynasty.
She had read through almost all the ancient books she had access to.
Naturally, she was very clear about the records regarding Immortal Stones.
The moment she touched the Immortal Stone, she had her suspicions, and after Qin Xuan pointed it out, she was naturally even more certain of her guess.
The Immortal Stone was indeed useful to her, but the powerful expert inside Qin Xuan's small tower had just stated it could shorten the time needed to refine some grand formation.
She didn't know what kind of grand formation that expert wanted to refine, but she was clear that as long as the grand formation was successfully refined, Qin Xuan's ability to protect himself would be even better.
Naturally, she was willing to give it up.
"Then I won't be polite." Qin Xuan put away the Immortal Stone, tossed it into the ancient prison-suppressing tower, and stared at the delicate and pretty little face under Little Koi's red wedding dress, "Your luck really is unmatched; you can even run into an Immortal Stone just by walking!"
Qin Xuan raised his hand, gently stroking Little Koi's head, and said dotingly, "Thank you, my wife!"
Little Koi hung her head, her cheeks flushed red. She didn't respond, nor did she refute such an address.
Leng Li poured cold water on them as if jealous, "It's just blind luck. How could something like an Immortal Stone be found everywhere? Even if there were any, they would most likely have been digested by the Kunpeng's flesh. This is just one."
Little Koi didn't find Leng Li's criticism harsh; she didn't take it to heart at all.
She only felt that when Qin Xuan received the Immortal Stone, his smile was happy from the bottom of his heart.
She really liked seeing Qin Xuan smile.
She wanted to make Qin Xuan happy again.
"Let me find another Immortal Stone, just let me find another one."
Little Koi hugged her hands to her chest, thinking this over and over in her heart.
Her water-clear eyes scanned her surroundings, searching.
She desperately longed to find another Immortal Stone.
Leng Li said coldly and impatiently, "What are you looking around for? You don't actually think you'll find another Immortal Stone, do you? Stop looking. Immortal Stones are rare and hard to come by. They are difficult for those in the Saint King Realm to refine, but for a creature like the Kunpeng, it can completely refine them in just a few days. Even if you find one, it would at most be a pile of wasted stones with no energy left."
"I think I found one!"
Little Koi ran quickly toward the front, crouched on the ground, and picked up another stone the size of a fist, "Is this an Immortal Stone?"
She could feel that this stone in her hand had an aura similar to the previous one, and the energy was even more massive.
Qin Xuan took the fist-sized Immortal Stone, his mouth twitching violently.
This Immortal Stone was larger than the previous five he had obtained combined.
He had roughly guessed that Little Koi had a bit of luck.
But he never expected Little Koi to be lucky to this extent.
Just by walking, she could actually pick up two Immortal Stones?
You have to know, even for an ancient existence like the Butian Holy Land, resources like Immortal Stones are counted by the individual piece.
"There's another one here!"
"There's one here too!"
"Wow, there are so many here!"
Before Qin Xuan could finish his lament, Little Koi's surprised exclamation sounded again.
Holding three or four Immortal Stones in her hands, she lingered at a corner, stomping her feet in a rush, and waved urgently at Qin Xuan, "Qin Xuan, come here quickly! There are so many Immortal Stones here, a whole pile of them!"
Qin Xuan stepped forward quickly, his gaze moved.
Hundreds of oddly shaped Immortal Stones were piled together, dull and lusterless.
There was no vast aura overflowing; they looked like a pile of broken stones, but the feeling they gave was undoubtedly that of Immortal Stones!
"This shouldn't be Immortal Stones, right?"
Qin Xuan felt a bit dazed, feeling like he was in a dream.
Immortal Stones, which even Holy Lands sought after but could not obtain, were placed in a pile in some corner of the Kunpeng's stomach, hundreds of them?
The key was that their aura was concealed, making him feel that such a good thing falling from the sky shouldn't happen.
Leng Li's voice became hesitant, "They must have been stained with some special seaweed, concealing their aura and making the Kunpeng ignore this place. After all, inside the Kunpeng's belly, there are existences like the Heavenly Demon Scale, and there are likely more than one. Immortal Stones that conceal their aura aren't worth the attention of an existence as great as the Kunpeng."
"Are these all Immortal Stones?"
"They should be."
Gulp!
Qin Xuan swallowed a mouthful of saliva.
Looking at Little Koi's clear water-like eyes, he became even more certain in his heart that this was the Koi herself, with her luck maxed out!
"Let's split these Immortal Stones fifty-fifty."
Qin Xuan grabbed Little Koi, not planning to let go for the rest of his life.
Cast a long line to catch a big fish; you have to give to get.
Little Koi shook her head and said earnestly, "I don't want these; you have a use for them. All these Immortal Stones are for you."
