When he heard the news, he almost regretted it so much, but unfortunately, the stone-cutting families in the Ancient City of Immortals were all very cunning and refused to sell it to him. Instead, they treated it as the most precious treasure and would sell it at the auction three days later.
"Does the Jieshi family know the connection between the Divine Jade Immortal Embryo and Xuantian Immortal Monarch?"
Ling Xiao said slowly.
"I guarantee that they definitely don't know! However, the Jieshi family has been immersed in the immortal stone for a long time. Although they can't tell what is inside, they definitely know that the treasure inside is not an ordinary item, so they are unwilling to sell it to me!
But sir, you have now obtained the Divine Jade Immortal Fetus that is suspected to contain the Xuantian Immortal Lord. If you can auction off that Divine Jade Immortal Fetus and obtain the Xuantian Immortal Lord's sword, you may be able to obtain all of Xuantian Immortal Lord's inheritance, which will definitely be a supreme fortune for you!"
The old Taoist said, with a hint of instigation in his voice.
"Very good! Your life is saved. Now please hand over your life spirit and serve me as your master!"
Ling Xiao said lightly.
Although the old Taoist had an unwilling look on his face, he could only smile bitterly and hand over his original spirit.
Buzz!
The Taoist's original spirit was actually a purple mouse. It looked as if it could swallow the sky and the earth. It radiated fairy light all over its body and looked ancient and mysterious.
"Huh? It's actually the ancient mythical beast Sky-Devouring Rat?"
There was a hint of surprise in Ling Xiao's eyes as he recognized the old Taoist's true form.
The Sky-Eating Rat is an ancient mythical beast. According to legend, it can devour the heaven and earth. It loves to devour natural treasures the most. Moreover, it has an extremely keen sense for all kinds of natural treasures, so it is also called the treasure-hunting rat.
The Sky-Eating Rat has become extinct in both the God Realm and the Demon Realm. Ling Xiao never expected to see the Sky-Eating Rat in the Immortal Realm.
The old Taoist's name is Heaven-Devouring Taoist!
After fusing with the Sky-Devouring Rat's original spirit, the Sky-Devouring Rat's life and death were in Ling Xiao's hands. Although the old Taoist was a little dejected, he could only accept his fate.
"Heaven-Devouring greets the master!"
The Sky-Devouring Rat said weakly.
"Very good! Now take me to the ancient city of immortals!"
Ling Xiao said lightly.
The reason he came to the fairyland this time was to find out the truth about the fairyland and see if he could get some opportunities and luck. The ancient city of immortals is the core of this Taoist state, so he would definitely be able to find out a lot of information.
As for the divine jade immortal fetus that the Sky-Eating Rat mentioned, I might as well go and take a look at it.
"Yes, Master!"
The Sky-Eating Rat followed Ling Xiao out of the mountain.
Boom!
Outside the mountain, the three ferocious beasts, the gorilla, the brown bear and the elephant, all stood there very obediently, looking at the Sky-Eating Rat very honestly, waiting for its orders.
whoosh!
The Sky-Devouring Rat took out a silver-white bracelet, which instantly burst into brilliant light. The three ferocious beasts growled, then turned into a stream of light and flew into the bracelet, leaving three lifelike imprints on it.
"This is the Beast Taming Ring, a treasure I got from the ancient ruins. Later, I subdued the Big Fool, the Second Fool, and the Third Fool, and made them do things for me!"
The Sky-Eating Rat explained to Ling Xiao.
"Keep it for yourself!"
Ling Xiao said this calmly, with no intention of taking away the Beast Taming Ring, which made the Sky-Devouring Rat feel relieved.
However, Ling Xiao's heart moved slightly. This Sky-Eating Rat was worthy of being called a treasure-hunting rat. There were really a lot of treasures on its body.
Boom!
At this moment, in the distant void, a blazing fairy light bloomed, and more than a dozen powerful figures flew towards this side.
They were extremely fast and arrived in front of Ling Xiao and the Sky-Devouring Rat almost instantly. They looked down at the two of them with extremely cold expressions.
"Someone from the Jieshi family?"
The Sky-Devouring Rat's expression changed slightly.
“Heaven Devouring Taoist, you are here indeed! You have found Xuantian Immortal Lord’s Divine Jade Immortal Fetus, right? Hand over the Divine Jade Immortal Fetus, and I can spare your life!”
The leader was a middle-aged man wearing a purple robe, with an unparalleled powerful aura and an extremely cold expression. He spoke condescendingly to the Heaven-Devouring Taoist.
His cultivation level is actually at the level of Immortal Lord!
The dozen or so people around him were all powerful warriors in the Immortal King realm. They were all wearing black armor, filled with murderous aura, with cold eyes, and vaguely surrounded Ling Xiao and the Sky-Devouring Rat.
He comes with bad intentions!
Ling Xiao's heart moved, and his eyes couldn't help but fall on the Sky-Devouring Rat.
How do these people from the stone-cutting family know about the Immortal Lord Xuantian and the Divine Jade Immortal Fetus
"What is the Divine Jade Immortal Fetus? I don't know! Immortal Master Shi Gang, what are you going to do?"
The Sky-Eating Rat's expression couldn't help but change slightly.
He had just sworn to Ling Xiao that the Jie Shi family knew nothing about the matter of the divine jade immortal fetus. He did not expect that the Jie Shi family would come directly to kill him, and it was the Immortal Master Shi Gang who came in person, and the first thing he opened his mouth was about the matter of the Immortal Lord Xuantian.
This slap in the face came too quickly!
Although the Sky-Devouring Rat was a little nervous, he felt more confident when he saw Ling Xiao's calm expression.
This master is, after all, a powerful immortal!
It is simply a dream for Immortal Master Shi Gang to capture Heaven-Devouring Taoist with the help of these people!
"Heaven Devouring Taoist, are you still going to pretend to be confused? You have already sold us a divine jade immortal fetus related to Xuantian Immortal Lord. It's really thanks to you. If it weren't for you, it really wouldn't be so easy for us to find clues about Xuantian Immortal Lord!
Now, I will give you a chance to live! Hand over Xuantian Immortal Lord's Divine Jade Immortal Fetus, then reveal your true form and acknowledge me as your master, and I will spare your life! I don't want to say it a second time, so make your choice!"
Immortal Shi Gang said indifferently.
As for Ling Xiao who was beside the Sky-Devouring Rat, he was not taken seriously by him at all. After Ling Xiao restrained his aura, he looked like just an immortal and naturally had no sense of existence.
There was a hint of anger in the Sky-Devouring Rat's eyes, and there seemed to be a fire burning in his heart.
He didn't expect that the Jie Shi family had already been planning to take over Immortal Lord Xuantian!
And everything that the Sky-Devouring Rat does is under the surveillance of the Jie Shi family. Even if Ling Xiao is not here today, he will probably fall into the hands of the Jie Shi family.
Just as the Sky Devouring Rat was about to say something, Ling Xiao stepped forward and said calmly, "What a coincidence! The Sky Devouring Rat already has an owner!"
"He has a master? Who is it? I killed his master, so I am his master, right? It can't be you, right?"
Immortal Master Shi Gang sneered and looked at Ling Xiao with a condescending gaze, as if he was looking at an ant.
"That's right, I am the master of the Sky-Eating Rat!"
Ling Xiao said seriously.
