Next, he had Wuhuan lead him to the Immaculate Divine Spring and obtained some Immaculate Spring Souls.
Actually, the ability of the Immaculate Divine Spring to foresee the future is rather useless.
After he integrated the Immaculate Spring Soul into the ring space, he could only foresee the future within the ring space, but he could not foresee the future outside the ring space.
However, this trip to Wuyan Village brought him the essence of Yinglong, which was an unexpected surprise.
Chapter 549 Going to Nanshao Country
Li Yao has obtained the spirits of five of the nine springs of Shennong.
They are: the Hot Sea Spring Soul with the power of life, the Spring Nourishing Spring Soul with the power of dreams, the Poisonous Miasma Spring Soul with the power of space, the Cold Marrow Spring Soul with the power to foresee life and death, and the Immaculate Spring Soul with the power to foresee the future.
Of the other four divine springs, Li Yao had already learned through Chonglou that the Flaming Wave Divine Spring and the Illuminating Gallbladder Divine Spring were located in the Divine Realm.
As for the remaining two divine springs, the Mist Soul Divine Spring and the Dragon Pool Divine Spring, he has not yet figured out their whereabouts.
Because there is some connection between the nine springs of Shennong, one can find another spring by finding one of the nine springs.
However, this is not absolute!
For example, after the Divine Spring of Rehai was bound by the blood of the Luo family's lonely soul, it lost its connection with the other eight springs.
The Spring Nourishing Divine Spring, located in the Realm of Illusionary Meditation, has also lost contact with the other eight springs.
Li Yao specifically asked Wu Huan, and Wu Huan's answer was that he only sensed the connection between the Immaculate Divine Spring and the Cold Marrow Divine Spring, but not the connection between them and other divine springs.
Although Li Yao felt that the Wuhuan wouldn't dare to lie to him, he still used the marking technique on them and discovered that they had indeed not lied to him.
It seems that finding the Misty Soul Spring and the Dragon Pool Spring will depend on a stroke of luck.
Next, he did not rush to the divine realm to search for the Flaming Wave Spring and the Illuminating Gallbladder Spring.
Instead, he returned to Suzhou.
Some time ago, he and Xiaobai left Suzhou to search for the Five Spirit Pearls and Shennong Nine Springs, which took them quite a while.
When they returned to Suzhou, they discovered that Liu Jinyuan and Lin Yueru's cultivation had improved considerably.
It seems that Liu Jinyuan and Lin Yueru did not slack off during their time away from Suzhou.
Li Yao and Xiao Bai stayed in Suzhou for a while longer.
One day, Liu Jinyuan's father, Liu Yongzheng, suddenly came to visit.
It turns out that Liu Yongzheng had made good achievements and had a good reputation during his tenure in Suzhou.
Recently, Liu Yongzheng was promoted by the emperor and transferred to the capital to serve as an official.
Of course, Liu Yongzheng's promotion this time was, after all, from a local official to a Beijing official, and it was impossible for him to immediately take up the position of Minister.
It is estimated that he will need to work his way up in the officialdom for some time before he can become a minister in the imperial court.
Because Li Yao had done a great favor for the Liu family and was also Liu Jinyuan's teacher.
Therefore, Liu Yongzheng came specifically to explain the matter to Li Yao and then bid him farewell.
"This is a good thing!"
Li Yao nodded and said, "After the promotion, your power will increase, and you can do more for the people! If there are any problems that you can't solve, you might as well discuss them with Jin Yuan?"
Liu Yongzheng's heart stirred, and he nodded.
He knew that his son, Liu Jinyuan, under Li Yao's tutelage, had not only mastered Taoist arts but also learned many principles of conduct.
Now his son is far more mature in thought and far more knowledgeable than his peers.
All of this is thanks to Li Yao.
Three days later, Liu Jinyuan's family moved to the capital.
...
Some time has passed.
One day, Li Yao said to Xiao Bai, "Xiao Bai, it's time for us to make a trip to Nanzhao Kingdom."
(PS: In the TV series, the Kingdom of Nanzhao was changed to the Kingdom of Nanzhao.)
According to the timeline, the leader of the Moon Worship Cult will break Nuwa's seal, summon the Water Demon Beast, cause a flood, and use this to frame the non-human Witch Queen.
According to the original game's storyline, Grandma will carry Zhao Ling'er and escape from Miao territory. With the help of Li Xiaoyao, who returns from ten years in the future, they will reunite with the Palace Master of Lingyue Palace and head to Immortal Spirit Island.
Li Yao's trip to Nanzhao Kingdom was primarily to acquire the Wind Spirit Orb and the Fire Spirit Orb.
Secondly, he wanted to see if Li Xiaoyao would appear in Nanzhao Kingdom ten years later and rescue Zhao Ling'er.
“Great! It’s been over a year since I came back to Suzhou, and I haven’t been out at all. I’m so bored.”
Xiao Bai said excitedly.
Actually, she wasn't just being playful; she really wanted to meet Zhao Ling'er, the female protagonist of this world.
In the world of Chinese Paladin, one cannot help but mention the leader of the Moon Worship Cult.
The Moon Worship Cult Leader in the game is vastly different from the Moon Worship Cult Leader in the TV series.
The character of the Moon Worship Cult Leader in the game is relatively simple; he is an ambitious man who acts against the tide of history to pursue his own dreams.
However, such a person is destined to fail, and in the end, he dies at the hands of Li Xiaoyao, the protagonist of the first Legend of Sword and Fairy game. It can be said that he died a worthy death.
The character of the Moon Worship Cult Leader in the TV series is much more complex; he is no longer simply an ambitious schemer.
What he pursued was not imperial power or imperial dominance, but an ideal world in his dreams.
He decided to destroy the world because he suspected it had lost love, hoping that after the destruction, a brand new world full of love could be rebuilt.
He's got the whole image of a mad scientist!
In the TV series, people initially thought that the leader of the Moon Worship Cult was a cult leader who would usurp power, disrupt the government, and harm Nuwa. He was considered chaotic and evil, a major villain, and a representative of the evil side.
However, as the plot unfolds, people discover that this leader of the Moon Worship Cult is not a complete and utter villain.
The reason for this situation is that the TV series needed to whitewash the character of the Moon Worship Cult Leader.
In the TV series, a tragic "childhood recollection" was deliberately arranged for the leader of the Moon Worship Cult, which was a forced whitewashing of his various evil deeds.
The reason is that the leader of the Moon Worship Cult is too powerful, while the protagonist Li Xiaoyao is too weak.
Left with no other choice, they had to add a plot twist to redeem the leader of the Moon Worship Cult, which resulted in the leader being redeemed and defeated by Li Xiaoyao's "Infinite Love" move.
In the game, the leader of the Moon Worship Cult is evil from beginning to end. He is defeated by the protagonist who painstakingly levels up and takes drugs, and there is no possibility of him being redeemed or redeemed.
The result of this forced whitewashing in the TV series is that many of the plot points seem abrupt, and many of the Moon Worship Cult Leader's actions appear very strange.
for example:
Zhang Xiaohui and her granddaughter are imposters from the Moon Worship Cult!
The Han doctor and his daughter from Baihe Village, along with Jiang Shangyun, are actually members of the Moon Worship Cult in disguise!
After parting ways at the inn, the old man who delivered the message was also a member of the Moon Worship Cult in disguise!
...
It seems that all the NPCs are dressed as members of the Moon Worship Cult.
What exactly does the leader of the Moon Worship Cult want to do?
His purpose didn't seem to be to kidnap Ling'er; rather, it seemed to be to continuously help Li Xiaoyao and the others.
Without Zhang Xiaohui's grandfather, Xiaoyao and the others would hardly have known about the existence of the Hidden Dragon Cave.
Without the Han doctor and his daughter, Ling'er's body wouldn't have recovered so quickly.
After parting ways at the inn, if they hadn't encountered the Moon Worship Cult member disguised as an old man, how would Li Xiaoyao and Lin Yueru have rushed back to the inn and learned what happened later?
Could all of this be a scheme by the Moon Worship Cult Leader to end his own life in order to cultivate Li Xiaoyao?
If not, how can we explain the strange behavior of the Moon Worship Cult Leader?
Chapter 550 The Lord of the Moon Worship Cult
Some say that the leader of the Moon Worship Cult aims to destroy the current world and then reshape a new one.
In order to destroy the old world, he needs to obtain five spirit orbs.
In order to reshape the world and create a better new human race, he needs the power of Nuwa's descendants.
Therefore, all his strange actions and schemes were to ensure that Li Xiaoyao and his companions could successfully obtain the five spirit orbs.
It was precisely for this reason that he repeatedly asked Zhao Ling'er to cooperate with him.
However, this explanation is clearly far-fetched.
Are the schemes of the Moon Worship Cult Leader really that perfect?
He can even take into account any random factor?
In reality, Li Xiaoyao and his companions obtained the five spirit orbs mostly through fortuitous encounters, without much of a necessary factor.
Moreover, since the Moon Worship Cult Leader had calculated so clearly, aside from the three spirit orbs that Xiaoyao later obtained—the Earth Spirit Orb and the Thunder Spirit Orb—the Moon Worship Cult Leader could have obtained them himself without affecting the plan.
How could a clever person like the Moon Worship Cult Leader possibly come up with a plan that is mostly based on coincidence and luck?
In fact, there are many unreasonable settings regarding the leader of the Moon Worship Cult in the TV series version of Chinese Paladin 1.
For example, what is most impressive is that the leader of the Moon Worship Cult discovered that the Earth is round, and he even personally circled the Earth to verify this.
Regardless of whether the Earth in the fantasy world is actually round!
Let's assume that in the world of the TV series "Chinese Paladin," the Earth is round.
So, here's the problem!
A world where one can become an immortal or a god.
A world where one can fly and disappear into the earth.
A world where people can travel through time.
