247 Emperor Level Opportunity
“There are wonders in the Endless Sea that mortals haven’t heard of. With the Golden Crow Chi Yang as a companion, a hundred sounds form a tune – Heavenly Voice Welcomes the Moon.”
“God was delighted. When He closed his eyes and looked, the Endless Sea became Forbidden. The hundred sounds became Yin.”
These sentences were the sea record’s description of the Night Parade of a Hundred Ghosts. When Xu Qing recalled them, his heart raced slightly as many thoughts quickly rose in his mind.
“Elder Zhao said that the dragon carriage is the sun’s carriage, so the youth in the murals on the dragon carriage should be the sun. Moreover, the murals also portray the scene of him transforming into the sun.”
“This point matches the description in the sea record. The sun is the Golden Crow. When it is time for sunrise, it rides the dragon carriage to the sky and transforms into the sun. When it is time for sunset, it returns on the dragon carriage and listens to Heavenly Voice Welcomes the Moon in its bedroom.”
“If that’s true, then that giant must have listened to Heavenly Voice Welcomes the Moon many times when it was alive. Even though it has fallen now, it still has some instincts to pull the carriage under the Forbidden Sea. If it hears Heavenly Voice Welcomes the Moon again, will it be dazed…”
When Xu Qing thought of this, his eyes gleamed.
If he wanted to accomplish this, he first had to search for the Night Parade of a Hundred Ghosts. Secondly, he had to have an item that could store music. Moreover, the quality of this item was extremely important. Xu Qing looked at his storage bag where there was a sound-catching bottle.
Other than these conditions, he also had to find the dragon carriage giant.
The Forbidden Sea was too large. The other party was usually in the deep sea and would only be seen occasionally. It was basically impossible for him to take the initiative to search.
“If my judgment is feasible, then if I can think of it, others should be able to think of it too. Perhaps the Seven Sects Alliance’s headquarters did this back then.”
“However, I have an additional ability compared to them. Even if they think of this method, they can only passively seek opportunities to encounter it. However, the shadow can take the initiative to summon it.”
“The difference between the probability of active and passive state is extremely great.”
Xu Qing was tempted. He felt that he had to speed up his plan. Even though the difference in taking the initiative and being passive was huge, as long as someone was willing, they could still do it.
In fact, it was very likely that someone was already prepared to search for the dragon carriage.
Xu Qing clearly remembered Elder Zhao saying that every time the dragon carriage appeared, it would search for an inheritor. As long as the emperor-level cultivation art engraved on it was comprehended by someone, it would dim on its own. The giant would then return to the bottom of the sea with the dragon carriage and wait for many years to accumulate the power of inheritance before appearing again.
“This also indirectly shows that cultivation arts of that level might only be obtained through inheritance and it’s difficult to impart it to others. However, whether it’s true or not will be determined in the future.”
Xu Qing felt that what he thought should be feasible. He planned to give it a try.
“Then, the first thing I have to do is to search for the Night Parade of a Hundred Ghosts!” Xu Qing took a deep breath. He knew that the Night Parade of a Hundred Ghosts only appeared at night and didn’t exist for long. Whether he could find it depended on luck.
Hence, Xu Qing didn’t hesitate. He spread out his perception with all his might and controlled the magic ship to move forward rapidly on the Forbidden Sea, beginning to search for the Night Parade of a Hundred Ghosts.
Just like that, days passed. Xu Qing’s search wasn’t very smooth. After all, the Forbidden Sea was too vast. Although the difficulty of searching for the Night Parade of a Hundred Ghosts couldn’t be considered a needle in a haystack, it was about the same. It depended on luck.
However, Xu Qing wasn’t in a hurry. During this month, he was also familiarizing himself with the changes to the black iron stick. After the Diamond Sect’s ancestor became a lightning spirit, the speed and lethality of the iron stick became astonishing.
This was especially so after the lightning runes formed by the refinement of the black iron stick shone completely. Xu Qing was quite surprised by the aura that erupted. That speed had completely surpassed that of a Foundation Building cultivator with one ball of life fire and was comparable to two balls of life fire.
Although it was slightly inferior, it was enough to be of help to Xu Qing’s current cultivation and allow his combat strength to increase greatly. At the same time, Xu Qing understood the abilities of the shadow as well.
Xu Qing tested the ability to control other beings after devouring their shadows on a megalodon. He watched helplessly as the shadow devoured its shadow and controlled the megalodon to twist its huge head. The neck broke with a loud cracking sound.
This scene was extremely strange, and even the Diamond Sect’s ancestor was shocked. He was glad that as an artifact spirit, he didn’t have a shadow.
The only flaw was that the devouring process was a little slow.
Other than that, the shadow’s other ability, shadow eyes, also gave Xu Qing a huge surprise. He controlled the shadow to release a hundred shadow eyes and scattered them on many sea beasts. As these sea beasts spread out in a disorderly manner, it was equivalent to Xu Qing having countless eyes.
As for the sea beasts he had placed the shadow eye on, they were all those who liked to travel at night and jump on the surface of the sea. Hence, their help in searching for the Night Parade of a Hundred Ghosts was extremely great.
Just like that, another month passed.
That night, Xu Qing, who was observing through the shadow eyes, suddenly locked onto one of the shadow eyes.
Through the shadow, Xu Qing clearly saw… that in that sea area, groups of ghosts were rising into the air.
“Night Parade of a Hundred Ghosts!”
