Chapter 240 Cooperation with Wang (3000 words, please subscribe)

After several hours, Ling Pengqiu returned to the Stream Mountain, but he still had concerns about the desolate valley in the territory of the Qingzhu Wang family.

After thinking about it, he controlled the yellow cloth flying magic weapon, flew out of the Stream Mountain, crossed dozens of miles, and finally landed outside a valley with rich spiritual energy.

As soon as he arrived here, he shouted loudly into the valley.

"Sixteenth great-grandfather, the junior Ling Pengqiu has an important matter to ask for."

After a while, a white-haired hunchbacked old man hurriedly walked out of the valley and asked Ling Pengqiu.

"Pengqiu, what's the important matter?"

The white-haired old man was Ling Ruru, the sixteenth in the Ling family's first generation. As for the valley, it was called Hexi Valley.

There was a first-grade superior spiritual vein in Hexi Valley, which belonged to the Stream Mountain where Ling Pengqiu was stationed.

Ling Ruru's cultivation level was as high as the eighth level of Qi training. Because he was over a hundred years old and had little time left, Ling Yunhong, the head of the Ling family, arranged for him to guard the spiritual veins in the family during the monster beast chaos, and did not take him to the dangerous Xiyang market.

When Ling Pengqiu heard the question, he told Ling Ruru about the strange desolate valley he found when he entered the Wang family's territory while chasing the flame wolf not long ago.

After hearing this, Ling Ruru was overjoyed. "This is indeed strange. There is a chance that there is a treasure in it. Otherwise, the Wang family would not have assigned a late-stage Qi training cultivator to sit in the desolate valley during the monster beast chaos."

"With just the two of us, we are not sure to seize that land."

"Then, you wait for me here for a few hours. I will go back to the clan mountain to find Pengyun. With Pengyun, our trip to the Wang family's territory will be safer."

"If there is really a treasure in that place, we can also take... some benefits."

Ling Pengqiu was overjoyed when he heard this.

This is exactly what he expected. If there is really a treasure in the desolate valley of the Wang family's territory, the family will benefit, and he, as the discoverer, will also be rewarded with a large amount of resources.

Now he is stuck at the sixth level of Qi training, and it is time to need resources.

Among the various spiritual objects that can assist in breaking through to the seventh level of Qi training, the cheapest Miasma-breaking Pill is worth a lot of money.

What's more, his goal is not the Miasma-breaking Pill, but the more expensive Heaven and Earth Spirit Water and high-level Spirit Fruit.

Although the effect of the Miasma-Breaking Pill is good, taking it to break through the bottleneck of the seventh level of Qi training will increase the difficulty of building the foundation.

As for directly entering the Wang family's territory and searching for treasures in the barren valley in the Wang family's territory, it is not a fight.

This does not conflict with the rules set by Bailingmen.

Moreover, the only foundation-building expert of the Wang family is not in the clan now.

The Ling family will naturally not let go of such an opportunity to take advantage.

After Ling Ruru finished speaking, he immediately took out a flying magic weapon, stepped on it, and quickly flew away from here and returned to the family.

…

On the same day, at night.

A huge green-haired Peng bird flew into the Wang family's territory and finally landed above a barren valley.

There were two people sitting on this Peng bird.

Sitting in the first place was Ling Pengyun, who had the second level of foundation-building cultivation, and the other was Ling Pengqiu. Ling Ruru could not leave and was still stationed in the river valley.

"Twenty-seventh brother, is this the desolate valley you are talking about?" Ling Pengyun turned his head and asked Ling Pengqiu.

"That's right." Ling Pengqiu replied.

Seeing this, Ling Pengyun mobilized his spiritual sense and swept across the desolate valley below.

In front of the powerful spiritual sense of the foundation-building period, the situation in the desolate valley below was clearly visible.

"In this valley, there is indeed a breath-retaining formation and a defensive formation. The grades of these two formations are not low, both reaching the first-grade upper grade."

"However, there are not only one aura of cultivators in this valley, but as many as five."

"It's just strange that the cultivation of these five people is extremely weak. If I hadn't entered the second level of foundation-building, I'm afraid it would be difficult to find their traces. This situation is not something that the first-grade upper-grade breath-retaining formation arranged in this valley can do."

"It seems that this valley is indeed different, and there are some signs that there are treasures in it."

Ling Pengyun informed Ling Pengqiu of the information he had discovered.

"Myna, how are the five cultivators?" Ling Pengqiu asked with a worried look on his face.

"There is only one cultivator at the ninth level of Qi training and four cultivators at the initial stage of Qi training. There is nothing to worry about." Ling Pengyun saw Ling Pengqiu's worry and said easily.

After that, he called Fengyingpeng and fell to the desert valley.

But before falling into the desert valley, a blue light curtain was propped up inside the desert valley to protect the desert valley.

Then, five cultivators rushed out of a cave in the center of the desert valley.

They all took out their magic weapons and prepared to attack Ling Pengyun and others who were riding Fengyingpeng in the sky.

Seeing this, Ling Pengyun quickly pinched his fingers and arranged a Yuanshui technique around his body, which transformed into a Yuanshui light curtain to protect himself.

Then, he mobilized his foundation-building pressure and pressed it towards the five cultivators in the valley, saying with a smile.

"Five Wang Daoists, I am Ling Pengyun, the Grand Elder of the Ling Clan."

"This time we are chasing a foundation-building monster. I just saw that monster enter the desolate valley of your Wang Clan. I wonder if you can help me go in and kill it, so that it won't hurt the five of you!"

Inside the desolate valley.

The five cultivators wearing Wang Dao robes were under the powerful pressure of Ling Pengyun's foundation-building power, and their bodies were bent a little.

Hearing Ling Pengyun's words again, the faces of the five Wang cultivators all turned ashen.

The defensive array protecting the Desolate Valley was not broken, so how could the foundation-building monster enter the valley without being noticed?

Moreover, even if the foundation-building monster had the ability to reach the sky, it could not have touched the array in the Desolate Valley and entered the valley. How could the five of them survive until now?

It was nothing more than Ling Pengyun finding an excuse to enter the valley.

Although they knew this, the five people did not dare to speak openly.

Among the five people, Wang Yanqian, the fifth elder of the Wang family, whose cultivation level reached the ninth level of Qi training, saw Ling Pengqiu, who had chased the Qi training monster in the daytime and came to the Desolate Valley, sitting on the Fengyingpeng in the sky, and his expression was slightly condensed.

"Sure enough, this person noticed the movement of the Desolate Valley in the daytime."

However, this situation was already expected by Wang Yanqian.

He first asked everyone to take back the magic tools, then waved his hand to take out a array plate from the storage bag and removed the defensive array protecting the Desolate Valley.

In the sky, Ling Pengyun, who was riding Fengying Peng, was a little surprised.

He thought it would take some effort to enter the desolate valley.

He didn't expect it to be so easy.

In order to avoid explosion, he added two more Yuanshui spells to his body, and then called Fengying Peng to fall into the desolate valley.

When Fengying Peng fell into the desolate valley, Wang Yanqian, the fifth elder of the Wang family, spoke again.

"Senior Ling, you are a smart man, please don't fool us. We will not hide it from you. Deep under the ground of this desolate valley, there is a miniature first-grade middle-grade red fire iron ore vein."

"However, the Wang family has sent people to the Bailingmen station to report the existence of the red fire ore vein here, and we are also preparing to give some of the ore veins to Bailingmen."

"It won't be long before Bailingmen will send monks to survey."

"In other words, Bailingmen has a share of this ore vein."

"In this case, senior, do you still want to take this ore vein again?"

Ling Pengyun, who had just jumped from Feng Yingpeng's back to the ground, frowned when he heard that the secret of this desolate valley was a miniature red fire iron ore vein, and that Wang family had sent people to Bailingmen to report it.

"I didn't expect it to be a mineral vein. I thought it was some spiritual object. If it was a spiritual object, it would be fine. We could just rob it and leave. But it would be difficult to deal with the mineral vein."

The Bailing Sect has a huge demand for various spiritual iron ores. No matter what grade of mineral veins, the Bailing Sect will take them all.

This mineral vein has a share of the Bailing Sect, so he really can't make any plans.

As for killing the five Wang family monks here, they can't rob much mineral veins. After all, digging mineral veins is extremely time-consuming and laborious, and this mineral vein has a share of the Bailing Sect.

Once the five Wang family monks are killed, the Wang family will definitely look for the Bailing Sect to take charge.

The Bailing Sect will definitely look for the murderer for the sake of the mineral vein.

In nine out of ten cases, they can find the Ling family, and then the Ling family will be in trouble.

And destroying the Wang family members in the current Wang family territory and occupying this land is even more impossible.

Let’s not talk about whether Bailingmen will blame them. In Xiyangfang City, there is still a foundation-building cultivator from the Wang family and thirty cultivators from the Wang family who are above the middle stage of Qi training.

If these cultivators knew that the Ling family stole the family and destroyed their own relatives, they would definitely disregard their lives and disperse to various places. In the future, they would intercept and kill the Ling family cultivators and completely bring down the Ling family.

Even if they can’t bring down the Ling family, they can completely destroy nearly half of the ordinary cultivators of the Ling family and kill dozens of Qi training cultivators of the Ling family.

Just when Ling Pengyun was frustrated and was about to leave, Wang Yanqian spoke again.

“Senior, I have a business that I want to do with your family. I wonder if you are willing to listen?”

“Tell me about it.” Ling Pengyun’s expression moved slightly and said lightly.

"My Wang family can give your family 10% of the tiny red fire iron vein in this desolate valley."

"This vein extends for about 90 feet, and the red fire iron ore contained in the vein is about 20,000 kilograms. 10% is 2,000 kilograms of red fire iron ore."

"My Wang family will pay your family 400 kilograms of ore per year within five years for these 2,000 kilograms of ore."

"Of course, your family will not take this ore for free. From today on, Senior Ling, you need to inspect my Wang family's territory every day."

"When my Wang family asks Senior Ling for help, you need to come immediately. Once my Wang family suffers heavy casualties, the deal will be off the table." Wang Yanqian saw that Ling Pengyun had fallen into the trap and said with a smile.

Ling Pengyun was quite tempted by this proposal.

However, he did not agree directly, but suppressed his mind, did not show it, pretended to be dissatisfied, and said. "Two thousand kilograms of red fire iron ore can only produce two hundred kilograms of red fire iron at most. These red fire irons are worth only one thousand spirit stones at most on the market. You want me, a foundation-building cultivator, to work hard for your Wang family for just one thousand spirit stones. Isn't that too little?"
