Chapter 759 – Lure
”The three of us naturally know that there’s something fishy going on, but when the Mulan people attacked all the way here earlier, they captured quite a few cultivators, with the majority of them being Nine Kingdom Alliance Daoists, but there were also quite a few support disciples from our various sects and factions who fell into the net. Listening to that messenger’s sermon, there were as many as a thousand people in this group.” Supreme Lord Zhiyang said with a gloomy expression.
”What is this saying? Could it be that if they don’t accept the bet, they will dare to kill the captives? If that’s the case, aren’t the Mulan people afraid that we’ll retaliate with other means?” The old man surnamed Fang was startled and said offhandedly.
”That messenger didn’t say anything about killing prisoners or anything like that, but he mouthed that he would give us a chance to save these cultivators. Ten betting fights, and in addition to betting on these materials, they additionally added more than a hundred captured cultivators to each one. As long as they win, these people can be released back.” Supreme Yang said immediately afterward.
Upon hearing this, the old monsters present looked at each other. On first hearing, these thousand or so cultivators didn’t seem like much, and most of them were low-ranked cultivators with low cultivation, so it seemed like they didn’t need to be held hostage by the other side at all. But if anyone really proposed not to save these people, they would immediately become a target.
It was important to realize that these cultivators weren’t much, but the families and large and small clans they represented were numerous. Especially many of these cultivators, or in order to delay the Fa Shi attack and was captured by the Mulan people, if not saved, I’m afraid that before the war army morale will be greatly reduced, the lower ranked cultivators feel a big chill, many will not put out their full strength to die again.
”I can’t imagine that these grassland barbarians can still use this kind of trickery. In the previous few invasions, it seemed that they would rarely use ploys, but this time, when they struck they were insidious enough. Knowing that it’s not good, we have to jump in.” Long Han sighed in agreement. How could the rest of the people not understand Long Han’s words, and in their hearts, they were equally greatly helpless, cursing the Mulan people for their cunningness.
”It seems that everyone has already understood, we have to take this bet even if we don’t. No matter what the other party’s intention is, we must defeat the other party’s methodist in the betting battle, otherwise the blow to the morale is not trivial. And look at the way the other side proposed the betting war, does not look like it will be in the battle to do tampering with the appearance, most likely to play is other ideas. So participate in the Taoist friends do not have to worry about what will eat any dark losses, if there is something wrong, we will also directly out to stop the war. Of course, since this is a deadly battle, whether or not you are willing to fight, it’s entirely up to you all to participate voluntarily, the three of us won’t force it.” To Yang Shangren swept his gaze towards the people in the hall and said in a dignified manner.
”Voluntarily?” As soon as these words entered the ears of the crowd of old monsters, all of them laughed coldly in their hearts, and then all of them were silent with flickering gazes.
No one was stupid! Not to mention that there was something fishy about this betting war, even if there wasn’t, no one would be willing to fight someone to the death. After all, cultivation to today’s realm, which one is not after hundreds of years of hard work to be able to get out of the head, and how will easily take the risk.
Han Li was equally indifferent, and had no intention of taking the lead. Although he didn’t mind contributing to the battle, he had to do so without jeopardizing his life. The last battle at Yellow Dragon Mountain had nearly killed him, and he didn’t want to go through it again.
Seeing all the people in the hall so color, the old devil of Hephuan face sank, cold snort, snort ice cold piercing bone, straight shocked in the seat cultivators face slightly changed, but still everyone sits high, no one got up to interface what.
To Yang Shangren saw this, shook his head, face showed a trace of helplessness. Wei Wu Ya’s eyes narrowed, did not say a word, do not know what to think.
Such an awkward situation, Supreme Yang Senior didn’t let it last any longer and spoke up again: ”The two Dao Friends and I discussed it before we came. This gambling war is really dangerous, so if the cultivator who goes to war is victorious, the rare materials won in the gambling war will be returned to the winning daoyou’s private ownership, which is also considered to make up for the risk of going to war this time, I don’t know what do you all daoyou think? Moreover, as far as I know, there are a few friends who seem to be lacking a few rare materials for their cultivation, and they can’t find them anywhere, so the three of us have some collections that can satisfy these friends.” As soon as Supreme Yang finished saying this, his gaze swept over the faces of several of them, which surprisingly included Han Li.
Han Li’s heart flinched, and some doubts rose. The other few people were not ordinary cultivators either, and the same expression of astonishment flashed across their faces. Although the Taoist priest had spoken out tantalizing conditions, and most of the people’s faces were moved by it, there was still no one who took the initiative to come forward and propose to participate in the betting battle for a while.
But right at this moment, Wei Wu Ya, who had never said anything, suddenly raised his head to look at the Soul Shattering Reality on the side, and with his lips moving slightly a few times, he even transmitted his voice. Originally hanging his head and lowering his eyebrows, the Shattered Soul Real Person’s complexion changed, his face was first shocked, and then a look of surprise appeared. After listening to a few more sentences, the Shattered Soul Realist’s mouth noiselessly opened and closed, actually negotiating with Wei Wu Ya.
A few moments later, the Soul Shattering Reality had a hesitant and uncertain face. At the same time, the black-robed big man also transmitted his voice to the Harmonious Old Devil.
This old devil had been full of concern ever since he arrived in the great hall, but as soon as he heard the voice transmission from this great elder of his own clan, his brows immediately furrowed and his face became a bit gloomy, not knowing what the big man had told him.
”Good, as long as the Shangren can keep his word, what’s the harm if this True Man just takes a risk?” The Soul Shattering Real Person pondered for a while, and surprisingly said so. Hearing this, the other old monsters were stunned.
But right at this moment, the Cloud Dew Old Devil also spoke up, “Since Fellow Daoist Shattered Soul has participated, I’m not just going to make a trip as well, it’s a bit of a shame not to want so many rare materials.” This old devil said with a cold smile, but a hint of sulkiness was hidden between his brows, as if he was full of displeasure.
The other cultivators looked at each other and although they didn’t say anything, they were secretly surprised. Regardless of why the two of them were persuaded, it made the rest of them jittery.
Sure enough, the following three cultivators, one after another, and several people respectively, and a few people voice transmission details a few sentences, the results of these people listen to, most of these people or happy or sad agreed to bet on the line of battle, only two people shook their heads with a cold face, a mouth rejected the matter.
Han Li saw this scene, all kinds of thoughts rushed through his mind, but right at this moment, the voice of the Supreme Yang Man reached his ears: ”Fellow Daoist Han. I heard that you are going around collecting a large amount of Gung Essence, I wonder if this is indeed true?”
Han Li had vaguely anticipated this, but once he heard this, he still couldn’t help but thump his heart twice. He asked the Heavenly Dao Alliance to help him collect gung essence, not something confidential, the other party could know about it without any surprise.
”Not bad, Mister Han does need some gung essence to refine a magic treasure, could it be that in the hands of Friend Daoist Zhiyang, there is a large number of this thing?” Han Li stabilized his mind and asked without moving.
”Heh! Han Taoist friend guessed right, I and Wei Taoist friend in the hands of each not a small piece of gung essence. The quantity should be enough for you to use, is you interested in taking a look?” Supreme Yang said with a smile.
”I’ll have to see if the gung essence is satisfactory before I’ll consider the matter of joining the battle.” Han Li pondered for a moment and returned without putting words in his mouth.
Supreme Lord Zhiyang let out a light laugh and agreed with his mouth full. Thus, within a short period of time, five people had successively agreed to this matter, and there were still a few others who, like Han Li, would have to think about it before giving an accurate reply, but this had already made Zhi Yang and the others greatly satisfied. Immediately, they also stopped transmitting with the others and began to lay out the specifics of how to deal with the Fa Shi army.
Sitting in the hall, listening to the old monsters discussing the reality of the Farseer army, as well as how to use formation flags and other formation equipment to deal with the Farseer’s extremely tricky Spirit Arts formations and other details, but Han Li’s mind had already been flying off into the sky, thinking about Geng Essence things.
To tell the truth, Han Li’s own life magic treasure, the power of the green bamboo bee cloud sword is really not very satisfied. This is not to say that this set of flying swords is less powerful than other cultivators’ original magic treasures, but because the enemies he encountered were either extremely weak or extremely strong. For extremely weak opponents, there was no need to use the flying swords at all, and they could kill their opponents with just the Qing Yuan Sword Qi. And extremely strong enemies, cultivation is generally higher than him, flying sword is really some chicken ribs.
However, when seeing the golden page on the description of the Qing Yuan sword skill last kind of divine ability “big geng sword array”, Han Li only understand the green bamboo bee cloud sword with the Qing Yuan sword skill terrible, this sword array power even if he can only cast out a small part, also can be enough and YuanYing late cultivator a long and short.
As for that virtual sky tripod although by silver moon boasts of the sky, but the actual power how, in the absence of personally see before, Han Li always hold three doubts. Therefore this Great Gung Sword Formation is definitely a great magical ability for him to gain a foothold in the Immortal Cultivation World in the future. In this way. A large amount of geng essence he must get his hands on, otherwise he would not be able to sacrifice the sword array.
But whether or not he really had to participate in a gambling battle for this, Han Li still couldn’t decide for a moment. After thinking for a while, decided to look at the number of gung essence provided by the other side before saying, if the gung essence provided is enough, so that he has a great hope of refining into a large gung sword array, to participate in the betting war is also not impossible.
As long as the opponents are not those Mulan Divine Masters, he will naturally not fear anyone. That is, the Mulan people in the betting war what tampering, with the power of the Wind Thunder Wings and the Purple Luo Heavenly Flame, a district barrier can really not trap him.
Han Li’s mind was set, his mind calmed down again, and he began to listen carefully to the words of all the cultivators.
This party has been open for nearly an hour, the three major cultivators are obviously to Yang Shangren as the main, Acacia old devil from time to time to do supplementary words, and Wei Wuya is silent, a total of did not say a few words.
However, in the discussion, no matter to Yang Shangren or Acacia Old Devil, all of them obviously think highly of Long Han, and when they encountered things related to the Heavenly Dao Alliance, they would ask for his opinion. It seemed that Long Han and his wife teamed up to be able to resist the words of one of the three great cultivators, but it was also a real thing.
In the end, the matter was pretty much discussed, and those cultivators who did not participate in the betting war were mostly assigned some specific duties. Then, in the words of the supreme sun, all the friends went back to prepare, all the people have said goodbye and left, but there are three cultivators were left alone, among them was Han Li.
The other two, one is Yun Lu old devil, one is a bloodless face beautiful woman, this woman in the discussion just now and Han Li the same, did not say a word.
