ng few were not in a good situation either. At this time, including himself and the lotus avatar...Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!The surging and overwhelming sword...“The South China Sea Dragon Palace has lost many of its direct descendants in recent years, which has greatly reduced its control over the sea monsters under its command. Nearby sea kings all want a share of the pie. As a member of the Dragon Palace, I naturally have to do my part. Brother King, you don't need to be polite to me.” 。Lu Xia Tian rationally said a sentence. 。The Dragon King, upon receiving the imperial decree, returned without explicitly stating his intentions. Naturally, Lu Xia Tian could only maintain a polite facade for now. 。“Lao San, you're thoughtful.” 。"The Dragon King nodded in response, then added with interest, 'It's widely rumored that the third child gained something significant within the secret Buddhist sect's hidden realm. I didn't believe it at first, but now it seems there might be some truth to the rumors after all.'" 。Laosan had been gone for many years, and his elder brother was extremely worried. He didn't know what Laosan had encountered in that Buddhist secret realm. 。His cultivation progress has been surprisingly rapid. 。“Between life and death, being able to survive a great calamity, one would naturally have some feelings. There is nothing particularly precious about it, just a deeper understanding of the path of cultivation.” 。Lu Xia Tian's eyes flashed, it seemed this Dragon King Ying Zhong summoned him wasn't necessarily for a good thing. 。However, Lu Xia Tian was not afraid of the people in front of him. 。"You're right, my cultivation has been stagnant for a long time. It's probably because I've been too comfortable with my life." 。The path of cultivation is like swimming against the current; if you don't advance, you retreat. 。The Dragon King of the South China Sea, Ying Zhong, let out a slight sigh. 。"Brother Wang was bestowed by the Heavenly Court and enjoys the Qi Luck of the Heavenly Court. This Qi Luck can to a certain extent resist the Calamity of Five Declines, so after all these years of cultivation, his cultivation base must have improved to some extent. The only question is how much it has improved. It's not that he has regressed." 。Lu Xiaoteng shook his head. 。“You don't understand, as the Dragon King of the South China Sea, the actual celestial energy one can command isn't that much. ” 。Once you reach the level of a Golden Immortal, the threat from the Heavenly Tribulation of Five Degenerations is far greater than you imagine. 。After you reach this level, you'll understand everything. 。“Ying Zhong shook his head.” 。At this time, what Zhong said held no nutritional value for Lu Xiaoteng. The other party summoned him back, there must be important matters to discuss. What the other party said left Lu Xiaoteng not knowing how to respond, so he simply remained silent, waiting for the other party to continue. 。"I heard you're collecting some fire and gold-type treasures" Yingzhong finally began to get to the point. 。"Not bad, cultivation needs these things" 。"Lu Xia Tian's heart skipped a beat, and he nodded in agreement. " 。“I actually have a vial of Yanxing Marrow Fluid, and also a piece of Jinmu Stone” 。Perhaps this will be of use to you, but if you want me to bestow these two treasures upon you, Third Brother, you must agree to my terms. 。At this point, Ying Zhong finally began to get to the point. 。"Brother Wang, feel free to tell me. As long as I can do it, I will definitely try my best." 。Lu Xia Tian's heart leapt with joy. Since the Dragon Palace was not yet embroiled in war, his primary purpose for remaining in the South China Sea Dragon Palace was to gather treasures needed to repair the puppet warriors. 。Ying Zhong is indeed worthy of being the master of the South China Sea Dragon Palace. After spending so many years in the waters of the South China Sea Dragon Palace, he used his influence and managed to get things done even when there were no immediate breakthroughs. The South China Sea Dragon King Ying Zhong had already gotten what he wanted. 。However, Lu Xia Tian also suspected that the other party was very likely to have gotten their hands on the item during this time as well. Knowing what he wanted, the other party might have acquired it and then brought it up to negotiate with him. 。At this time, Lu Xia Tian's influence in the South China Sea Dragon Palace was undoubtedly considerable. However, compared to Ying Zhong, the master of the South China Sea Dragon Palace, he was not on the same level at all. 。It's also quite possible that the other party will beat you to it. 。However, as for Lu Xiaoteng, he didn't originally think that he could collect the things he needed so quickly. Being able to collect them through Ying Zhong's hands, even at a certain cost, Lu Xiaoteng was very willing. 。“Lao San, you must give up the pursuit of the Dragon King's position” 。Yingzhong said: 。“The competition for the position of Dragon King, why is there such a saying In the past, wasn't the position of Dragon King always inherited when the incumbent Dragon King reached the end of his life or encountered an accident, and then recommended by the incumbent Dragon King to be enthroned in Heaven” Lu Xia Tian said in surprise. He had never had any greedy desire for the position of Dragon King.” 。Although many elites of the Dragon Palace, such as Ying Xuanming and Ying Xuanling, were absorbed into Qingguo Jie by Lu Xia Tian, Ying Zhong still had offspring outside the palace. Moreover, he was a Heavenly Immortal-level cultivator, rumored to be even stronger than previous figures like Ying Xuanming and Ying Xuanling. 。In this case, the position of Dragon King will not be passed on to outsiders. 。Although Ying Feng, played by Lu XiaTian, is presented as the younger brother of Ying Zhong, there is only one Dragon King position. Naturally, Ying Zhong favors his own offspring. 。“Xuan Hao had a mishap during his cultivation, causing his Heavenly Immortal realm to become unstable. As for Xuan You, rumors spread that he was in seclusion, but in actuality, he sustained severe injuries during the last battle with the East Sea Dragon Palace.” 。His strength had already fallen to the level of a Xuanxian, he just hadn't appeared since his serious injury. 。Ying Zhong said this while his eyes were fixed on Lu Xia Tian. 。He seemed to be trying to gauge whether Lu Xia Tian had a greedy heart from his facial expressions. However, besides surprise, there didn't seem to be any indication of interest on Lu Xia Tian's face. 。At this time, Zhong should also be a little puzzled. Could there really be a dragon clan who didn't care about the position of Dragon King"Is Heaven preparing to intervene in the succession of the Dragon King" Lu Xia Tian frowned and said 。"So that's how it is, you know, Lao San, you have a pretty good reputation in the Heavenly Court. Someone there is speaking up for you." 。Otherwise, I wouldn't have rushed to call you back. 。Yingzhong said: 。“That’s not a big problem. After going to the secret realm of the esoteric Buddhist sect, my state of mind has undergone some changes. It’s good that I can meditate and improve my strength. However, to enhance my strength, I also need some material resources” 。As long as my material needs are met, what does it matter who holds the position of Dragon King 。After much back and forth, in the end, everything still falls under the control of Heaven. 。After understanding Ying Zhong's intentions, Lu Xia Tian was frankly straightforward. 。“That’s no problem. What’s your connection in the Heavenly Court Just say a word there, and if you don't intend to compete for the position of Dragon King, I can give you a Golden-Eyed Stone beforehand.” 。I promise you, whether I am in power or after Xuanhao inherits the position of Dragon King, we will always treat you, the third brother, with the utmost respect. Whatever resources you need for your cultivation, the Dragon King will make every effort to obtain them. 。Yingzhong said 。“Thank you, Brother Wang” 。Lu Xiaotian nodded. Although compared to the other puppets, these eighteen golden-ranked war puppets suffered the least damage and only needed a small amount of golden eye stones to repair them. With time, they would certainly be able to restore them. 。That Star Marrow is even more rare than Star Liquid. 。For Lu Xia Tian is more important. 。It's still good to be able to get the Golden Eye Stone first. 。"Third Brother, you have to think this through carefully. Once you accept the Golden Eye Stone, you will have to take an oath. My Dragon's Curse Oath might not be very powerful, but it's still not easy to deal with." 。Ying Zhong said: 。

Please: m.lstxt.cch the heavens and earth transformed in an instant, far surpassed even the abilities of ordinary celestial beings. Even Lu Xia Tian's keen eyesight couldn't discern any flaws in this astonishing feat.“...
