Stepping into Yunlongfang, Zhou Yang first went to the famous restaurant "Guanlong Pavilion" in the city and ordered a table of delicacies cooked by various water monsters and aquatic plants in Longjiang.
The Longjiang River is long and wide, and the water is deep and fast. The deepest point can reach thousands of feet. There are countless aquatic monsters living in the river, including even sixth-order monster kings.
Compared with the birds and beasts on land, these aquatic monsters are more difficult for immortal cultivators to deal with. Even water-based martial arts cultivators cannot get much advantage when fighting water monsters of the same level underwater.
All the delicacies in "Guanlong Pavilion" are cooked with various monster beasts and some aquatic spiritual plants produced in Longjiang.
"Steamed golden water crab is made by taking a whole second-grade low-grade monster golden water crab unique to Longjiang and steaming it in a steamer for three hours. The crab must be a live crab. The water for steaming the crab is taken from the Yinlong Spring, a spiritual spring on Yunlong Island.
, mixed with Guanlong Pavilion’s secret spirit wine…”
"Braised silver arowana is braised with second-grade high-quality monster silver arowana produced in the entire Longjiang River..."
"Eight Hundred Dragon Eel Soup, take eight elixirs including Centenary Red Ginseng, Centenary Snow Lotus, Centenary Purple Zhizhi, Centenary Polygonatum, Centenary Polygonum multiflorum, Centenary Di Poria, Centenary Water Yunzhi, Centenary Golden Lotus root, etc. and feed it into the second level of Longjiang Specialties
Then put the whole golden-scaled dragon eel in the belly of the top-grade monster beast and stew it over a high fire for six hours..."
One after another famous dishes from "Guanlong Pavilion" were brought to the room by the waiters. Every time a dish was served, a maid would accompany Zhou Yang and the three of them to explain the name and ingredients of the dish.
Some dishes are also particular about the time when they should be tasted. They must be eaten just after the lid is opened while they are still hot, or they must be left to dry for a longer period of time before eating.
Just this table of food and wine cost Zhou Yang 3,700 yuan of low-grade spiritual stones!
That is to say, he is now richer than many Golden Core monks, so he is willing to spend so many spiritual stones to enjoy his fortune.
Fortunately, immortal cultivators are very good eaters, and these wines and dishes are all cooked with elixirs and monster meat. The rich spiritual energy contained in them can be absorbed and refined to increase cultivation, so there is no need to worry about being too much.
After eating and drinking like this for half a day, Zhou Yang looked at the maid who was accompanying him and asked: "Zhou entered the market earlier and heard that Yunlongfang was about to hold a dragon-slaying conference. Can fellow Taoist please tell Zhou in detail?
About this matter?"
The maid just took advantage of him and had his permission to taste the feast, which usually only the golden elixir monks would be willing to eat. When she heard his question, she quickly replied: "Senior Mingjian, this matter is still...
Let’s start with a tradition from Yunlongfang…”
It turns out that Yunlongfang has had a tradition since its establishment, that is, when a dragon is found to be causing trouble in Longjiang, a "flood-slaying conference" will be held, and invitations will be sent out to invite monks from all over the world to come and slay the dragon together.
Every time a "Dragon Slaying Conference" is held, Yunlongfang will offer generous rewards to attract monks to participate. If a monk can kill the dragon, not only can he leave his name on the "Dragon Slaying Stone", but he can also receive generous rewards from Yunlongfang.
award.
About three years ago, there was a sudden flood in the Longjiang River. The raging floods submerged more than a dozen mortal cities on both sides of the Longjiang River, and hundreds of thousands of people died as a result.
Later, some immortal cultivators found the figure of a dragon in the flood area, so they learned that the cause of the flood was a fourth-level dragon that advanced to the fifth level.
The Jiaolong clan possesses the blood of a true dragon, and as long as they don't die prematurely, they will definitely be able to advance to the fifth level.
When the dragon advances to the fifth level, although it will not go through the thunder tribulation like other monsters, it will involuntarily awaken its bloodline nature and take the initiative to surface to make trouble.
If it were in a large lake or sea, it wouldn't matter if the dragon made waves, and it wouldn't have much impact on terrestrial life.
However, in a large river like Longjiang, once a fifth-order dragon surfaces and stirs up trouble, it will definitely cause a huge flood and affect the mortals on both sides of the river.
And mortals are the foundation of immortal cultivators. If the foundation is damaged, immortal cultivators will naturally not sit idly by.
What's more, a dragon is a spiritual beast of heaven and earth. Not only is it full of treasures, it also likes to collect all kinds of treasures like a real dragon. The harvest from killing a dragon is ten times that of ordinary monsters of the same level.
Therefore, once a dragon appears on the Longjiang River, monks will immediately be attracted to kill the demon and the dragon!
After it was discovered that a dragon was causing trouble and causing floods, resulting in the death of hundreds of thousands of mortals, Yunlongfang held a "Jiao-Slaying Conference" in accordance with tradition, inviting monks from all over the world to come and slay demons and dragons.
Not to mention, even Zhou Yang was greatly moved after hearing the rewards offered by Yunlongfang for this "Dragon Slaying Conference".
Ten pieces of high-grade spiritual stones, a century-old ownership of a shop in the city, and a token of favor that allows a fifth-level weapon-refining master to help refine weapons for free.
The above rewards are the rewards given by Yunlongfang for the "Slaughtering Dragon Conference".
Of course, although the rewards are good, not many people can get them.
A fifth-level dragon, even one that has just advanced, is not comparable to ordinary early-stage Jindan monks.
If they were to fight in the Longjiang River, even the late Jindan monks would not dare to say that they would definitely be able to kill the dragon.
The dragon is the overlord of the water, and its water escape skills are the best among all monsters. It is extremely difficult to kill a fifth-level dragon in a big river like Longjiang.
"Now there are three Jindan seniors who have been invited to participate in the Dragon Slaying Conference. Except for senior Li Yuan from Tianding Sect who has brought three Zifu disciples to help, the other two seniors are now recruiting capable people to form a team.
The team went to slaughter the dragon."
"Senior Zhou, if you also want to participate in the Jiao Dragon Slaying Conference, you can go to those two seniors to sign up. If you can join the team of Jin Dan seniors and successfully kill the dragon, you can stay with the Jin Dan seniors.
On the famous Dragon Slaying Stone, share the harvest of slaying the dragon!"
The maid did not waste Zhou Yang's food and wine, and told him all the detailed information about the "Jiao Slaughter Conference" one by one.
Although these maids have low cultivation, they work in a restaurant like "Guanlong Pavilion", and the people they greet and come into contact with are all rich and powerful monks, and the information is actually better than many monks in the foundation building period.
After hearing what the maid said, Zhou Yang was indeed a little moved.
If he wants to practice the "Blue Dragon Body Refining Technique" magically deeply and reach the second level, he must refine the dragon's spiritual blood to achieve it.
If he could join a certain dragon-slaying team and find the dragon that was causing trouble, even if he couldn't kill the dragon in the end, as long as he got some dragon spiritual blood, it would be enough to help him advance the "Blue Dragon Body Refining Technique" to the second level.
"Maybe we can go and have a look first."
Thinking in his mind, he immediately thanked the maid, paid the bill and left the "Guanlong Pavilion", and moved into a fairy inn in Fang City with his Taoist companion and niece.
Next, Zhou Yang asked Xiao Ying and Zhou Guangxiang to go shopping and wandering in Fang City by themselves, while he went to the venue of the "Jiao Slaughtering Conference".
At this time, there were still a few days before the official opening of the "Jiao-Slaying Conference", but many monks had already gathered here. Most of them were foundation-building monks watching the fun, but some wanted to participate in the "Jiao-Slaying Conference".
"The monk of Zifu.
Zhou Yang arrived here and soon saw Wang Wei, the strong man riding a turtle whom he had seen outside Fangshi before.
When he was at "Guanlong Pavilion" before, Zhou Yang also asked the maid about Wang Wei's name and knew that this man was indeed a famous person in Dayun country.
One of the things that Wang Wei is most famous for is that a hundred years ago, with a cultivation level of the sixth level of the Purple Mansion, he surpassed the level and killed a fourth-level high-grade water demon "Black Water Dragon Crocodile".
The "Black Water Dragon Crocodile" is not only a fourth-level high-grade monster, but also an alien beast with dragon bloodline, and its strength is comparable to that of a ninth-level monk from the Purple Mansion.
Wang Wei was able to kill such a powerful monster alone on the sixth floor of the Purple Mansion, how could he not disturb the Great Cloud Kingdom?
This time the "Jiao-slaying Conference" was held, this person also rushed to Yunlongfang after hearing the news. Obviously he was not willing to be just a spectator.
Coincidentally, when Zhou Yang saw Wang Wei, Wang Wei, who was sitting cross-legged under a big tree, also saw him.
Seeing him arriving, Wang Wei just nodded slightly as a greeting, and then did nothing else.
Seeing this, Zhou Yang nodded in return and was not in a hurry to talk to him.
He has not really decided whether to participate in the "Dragon Slaughtering Conference", everything depends on the situation.
Walking around the venue like this, listening to the conversations of the monks here, Zhou Yang also heard a lot of news he wanted to know.
For example, he already knew from the mouths of these monks that in addition to Li Yuan, a middle-stage Jindan monk from the Dingmen that day, another Jindan-stage monk Di Long from the Jinshui Gate, the third largest sect in the Dayun Kingdom, had also recruited four purple disciples.
Monk Fu will be your teammate and will not recruit anyone else.
Currently there is only one Zhao Hao, a sixth-level golden elixir cultivator from Jinyang Kingdom, who is still selecting his teammates from Zifu cultivators.
The Zifu period monks teamed up with these Jindan period monks to hunt the dragons. Of course, the Golden elixir period monks took the lion's share, but even if they only got 10 or 20% of the harvest, it was still a considerable income for the Zifu period monks.
Moreover, if he really succeeded in slaying the dragon, he would be able to leave his name on the "Dragon Slaying Stone" in Yunlongfang, and he would be ranked alongside the Nascent Soul Stage monks and many Golden Core Stage monks. This gain in reputation would not be insignificant.
Coincidentally, about half an hour after Zhou Yang arrived at the venue, Zhao Gao, a golden elixir monk from Jinyang Kingdom, came to the venue again to select teammates.
At the venue, a thin-faced middle-aged man in green clothes suddenly descended from the sky onto a high platform in the center of the venue, his eyes sweeping across all the Zifu monks in the venue like lightning.
"As I said before, those who can withstand three moves under my sword will be qualified to go to Slaughter the Dragon with me. There are still two places left. Those who want to join the team can sign up!"
After the man in green, Zhao Hao, said these words, he sat cross-legged on the high platform and waited.
With Zhao Hao's cultivation at the sixth level of the golden elixir, even if he doesn't go all out to attack, there are only a handful of monks at the Zifu stage who can take his three moves.
No wonder he has been recruiting here for so long and still hasn't recruited enough teammates.
"King Wei of Dayun, please give me some advice from Senior Zhao!"
Just when Zhou Yang in the audience was thinking about who would be the first to come out and test the sword, Wang Wei, who was sitting cross-legged under the tree, suddenly rose into the air and landed on the high platform in front, bowing his hands to Zhao Hao and asking for advice.
