Chapter 200 Long Ming’s decision
At the foot of the Black Gold Peak, a dozen Martial Lord-level experts encountered a problem.
Because there are no stairs or any landing points on this mountain peak, and it is impossible to fly here, how to get to the top has become the biggest problem.
"This small cave world is shrouded by two formations. One is a no-fly formation, and the other formation condenses the energy of heaven and earth in the entire small world into the palace on the peak."
Wei Haoran is the only sixth-level formation master among the martial lords. He found out through some clues and deduced for a long time that these two formations use this black gold mountain peak as the core of the formation.
"Master Wei, please stop being so pretentious. How on earth are we going to get to the top of this peak?" Xuanyang Sect Master said.
"There are no solutions, but it will take time."
Wei Haoran frowned, glanced at the Martial Lords, and said slowly: "I can set up a formation to temporarily resolve the no-fly effect here, but because the level of the formation here is too high, my formation flag will never be able to be maintained. ”
At this point, Wei Haoran's tone paused slightly, "I don't think I need to say more about the value of the sixth-order formation flag. You all know it very well."
As soon as these words were spoken, the dozen or so martial lords present did not understand what Wei Haoran meant.
"The damaged formation flag should naturally be compensated by us." Lord Yuancheng said with a smile.
While he was talking, he had already taken out a ring and threw it to Wei Haoran.
Wei Haoran looked at the 100,000 middle-grade vitality stones in the storage ring, nodded with a smile, then put the ring away and looked at the other Martial Lords.
The formation master also relies on his ability to make a living. If everyone wants to reach the top, they must rely on him to break the formation. If they don't take the opportunity to make a fortune, it will be a disgrace to the identity of the formation master.
In fact, Wei Haoran knew very well that just the 100,000 mid-grade vitality stones given by Lord Yuancheng Wu was enough to compensate him for the loss of the formation flag.
Others didn't know how much Lord Yuan Cheng Wu had given, but they also knew that without some blood, it would be impossible for Wei Haoran to work in vain.
After weighing it in their minds, all the Martial Lords took out a storage ring and handed it to Wei Haoran's hand.
What Fan Taide gave was a pill, which was equivalent to the value of 70,000 to 80,000 middle-grade vitality stones.
Master Hongming also gave 100,000 middle-grade vitality stones. For those who have reached the cultivation level of Wujun, the middle-grade vitality stones have basically lost their effect on cultivation. Apart from buying some materials and treasures, there is nothing left in their hands. Any use.
Old Monster Qiu looked shabby, but he was also very generous. He took out several materials for refining the sixth-level formation flag, which made Wei Haoran very satisfied.
The three major forces, the Purple Mansion Palace Master, the Xuanyang Sect Master and the Changhe Clan Master, were also wealthy and wealthy, and they all paid Wei Haoran satisfaction.
But when it was the turn of the ancestors of the Martial Lords of the Tianwu Kingdom, what they brought out one by one was at most equivalent to the value of 10,000 to 20,000 middle-grade vitality stones.
The same powerful Wujun has different status and strength, and his net worth is also very different. One hundred thousand mid-grade is nothing at all to a strongman of Yuancheng Wujun's level.
But for Xu Jingnian and other Martial Lord ancestors, taking out 10,000 to 20,000 middle-grade vitality stones is enough to make them feel painful.
Seeing Wei Haoran frowning, Xu Jingnian and other Martial Lord Ancestors couldn't help but become nervous.
"not enough."
Wei Haoran frowned and glanced at these Martial Lord Ancestors, "Is my action worth ten to twenty thousand mid-grade?"
At this point, Wei Haoran snorted coldly, "Some sects and aristocratic families ask me to arrange formations. It requires at least 70,000 to 80,000 mid-level products before I can take action. Moreover, they need to provide the materials required for the formation themselves."
Array Masters are arrogant, especially high-level Array Masters. If the reward given by the other party cannot satisfy them, for them, it is a humiliation to their identity as an Array Master.
Several Martial Lord Ancestors all looked embarrassed, but did not dare to refute. They could only endure the pain and took out some middle-grade vitality stones.
After getting a reward that satisfied him, a smile appeared on Wei Haoran's old face. He thought to himself that if there were other formation restrictions in the palace at the top of the peak, he would definitely be able to make money from him in this line of work. The basin is overflowing.
Master Wei, one of the four major guild giants in the Tianwu Kingdom, has always been famous for his greed for money. His only hobby is to amass wealth and create the most powerful puppet.
Practicing the art of formations is also extremely resource-intensive. Whether it is studying small formations, large formations, or formation puppets, countless materials and huge sums of money are spent.
"Wei Caimi, how long will it take you to set up the formation?" Lord Yuan Chengwu asked with a smile.
Wei Haoran was disrespectful to the title "Cai Fan". He stretched out three fingers, then took out a dozen formation flags and began to set up the formation and carve the formation patterns and runes.
…
Long Ming never expected that Luo Xiu was so seriously injured that it only took him three days to wake up from his coma.
When Luo Xiu woke up, it had just swallowed a sixth-grade elixir and was refining its power.
With the Dragon Clan's special physique, it only takes about a day to refine a sixth-grade elixir. Its cultivation soared from the seventh level of God Refining to the ninth level of God Refining in three days. It was only one step away from reaching the level of Martial King. level.
As long as the elixir in the stomach is refined, there is a 70% certainty that it can be restored to the level of King of Martial Arts.
But just at this juncture, Luo Xiu woke up!
The moment he opened his eyes and woke up from his coma, Luo Xiu released his consciousness and instinctively alerted his surroundings.
He first saw Yan Yue'er, who was unconscious beside him, with a pale face and weak breath.
Then he saw some monster corpses around him, which should have been killed by Long Ming while they were sleeping.
Just as he was about to praise Long Ming, his consciousness keenly noticed the change in Long Ming's breath.
Ninth level of soul refining?
When Long Ming was stared at by Luo Xiu's murderous eyes, he instantly had the urge to cry.
According to his calculations, with the injuries of Luo Xiu and Yan Yue'er, it would take at least a month for them to wake up, and even if they woke up, they would definitely be very weak and would need a long time of rest to fully recover.
A month or so is enough for Long Ming to recover to the level of Martial King. Although he cannot break the soul restraint without reaching the level of Martial Lord, he can get rid of the soul restraint at the level of Martial King with the several dragon clan secrets he has mastered.
But...but Luo Xiu, this evildoer, actually woke up in just three days?
Luo Xiu noticed the storage ring next to Long Ming's claws. He was very familiar with this ring, which was the one worn by Yan Yue'er.
When he found that Long Ming wanted to take advantage of his coma to recover his strength and attack him, a fierce killing intent emerged in his heart.
Once this guy gets rid of the control of the soul restraint, he might attack him, and even implicate Yan Yue'er. Luo Xiu will never allow all this to happen.
A shadowless dragon does have great training value, but if it is like a time bomb that may attack you at any time, it is better to cut off the trouble than to keep it!
"Aren't you going to explain it to me?"
Taking a deep breath, Luo Xiu suppressed his murderous intent and asked Long Ming in a deep voice.
Because he saw the corpses of monsters around him, it was obvious that if Long Ming hadn't protected him, who knows what kind of tragedy would have happened during the three days when he and Yan Yue'er were unconscious.
Long Ming had originally prepared to be tortured by Luo Xiu's soul restriction, but suddenly heard Luo Xiu ask this question, and couldn't help but look stunned.
"I... I just want to get rid of the shackles of the soul restriction and regain my freedom." Long Ming said.
Anyway, since he had been discovered by Luo Xiu, Long Ming simply made up his mind and said angrily: "Uncle Long, I was a powerful warrior at the level of Emperor Wu in ancient times. I was suppressed in the Ten Thousand Monsters Secret Realm of Taixuan Sect for 50,000 years, and I almost went crazy!" "I finally survived 50,000 years, and my life span is about to run out. I survived a lot of dangers and regained my life with the secret method of the dragon clan, but now I have fallen into your hands. Uncle Long, I am unwilling to accept this!" It used to be a powerful dragon clan warrior comparable to the Emperor Wu, with its own pride and backbone. If it were not for the new life it finally gained, it would never want to be controlled by soul restraint even if it died. Just like in ancient times, it would rather be suppressed in the Ten Thousand Monsters Secret Realm and never see the light of day for 50,000 years, and it has never surrendered to Taixuan Sect. It is equivalent to dying once, and because of this, it cherishes its current life more and is more afraid of death than before. "I understand that you want to get rid of the soul ban, but have you ever thought that even if I let you go, if you fall into the hands of other martial arts masters, you will still be controlled by the soul ban. After all, you are no longer a dragon clan master of the ancient times, and you no longer have the strength of a martial arts emperor." When Luo Xiu said this, Long Ming was silent. The world today is different from the ancient times. The vitality of the world is thin. Unless it can find a lot of cultivation resources, it is impossible for it to recover to its former peak strength. Moreover, before its strength is restored, in the eyes of the martial arts masters of the time, the value of an ancient shadowless dragon is absolutely priceless. Once it is discovered, countless masters will be dispatched to capture it. Although it is not easy for others to catch it because of its talent in mastering space, it is better to be safe than sorry. If it is really caught, others may not be as easy to talk to as Luo Xiu. Maybe they will directly erase its memory and raise it as a pet mount. "You should also know that if you hadn't wanted to use this to retaliate against me in the Xuanyou Secret Realm, I might not have planted the soul ban in your sea of consciousness."
"If I wasn't worried about your backlash, I wouldn't suppress your growth and recovery."
"What I need is a companion who can be trusted, not a traitor who has to worry about whether the other party will stab me in the back all the time."
Luo Xiu paused slightly and stared at Long Ming, "If you want freedom, you can, I will lift the soul ban in your sea of consciousness and let you go."
"But if you choose to stay, I hope you can put aside your arrogance as a dragon clan strongman and be a partner worthy of my trust."
"Whether to go or stay, you choose."
In fact, Luo Xiu knew that he was not a good person.
But he was a person who clearly distinguished between gratitude and resentment. If it weren't for Long Ming protecting him and Yan Yue'er from being harmed by the monster during the three days when he and Yan Yue'er were unconscious, he would not say any more nonsense and would directly activate the soul ban to kill the shadowless dragon.
No matter how you look at it, in a sense, Long Ming saved his and Yan Yue'er's lives, so Luo Xiu gave it the right to choose whether to stay or leave.
Long Ming was silent, and it did not expect that Luo Xiu did not blame himself for secretly taking the pill to restore his cultivation, but instead gave him the right to choose freely.
It almost couldn't help but shout that I want to be free, but when the impulse in its heart subsided, it began to use reason to think about the pros and cons of staying.
Long Ming himself also knew that there was no enmity between him and Luo Xiu. In the final analysis, it was because of his dignity and pride as a strong man of the dragon clan that he was unwilling to be suppressed by a young boy from later generations.
But on second thought, compared to freedom, its own safety and recovery of strength are more important.
If it chooses to leave Luo Xiu, it will have to search for resources and treasures alone. Maybe it will encounter a powerful martial arts master who will capture it and erase its memory and use it as a mount. It will only be a slave for the rest of its life. People riding on the crotch.
And what if you choose to stay with Luo Xiu? Although this boy is still very weak, his growth rate and potential are terrifying.
The most important thing is that this guy is an alchemist. As long as he has enough pills, it is not difficult at all to restore his cultivation.
Of course, if you want to get the elixir from Luo Xiu, you must first solve the problem of mutual trust.
