The strong men of the Red Bamboo Gang returned to the Red Bamboo Island, and this time they went to battle. They originally wanted to provoke and weaken the Black Bamboo Gang, but they did not expect that two of their own guardians were killed.
This kind of traumatic loss made the deputy leader of the Red Bamboo Gang and others very painful, and their hatred for the Black Bamboo Gang deepened.
The only reasonable explanation they could think of was that the leader of the Black Bamboo Gang, Li Pingsong, had quietly escaped from seclusion and caught them off guard.
"Deputy gang leader, why are you hesitating? Let the gang leader get out of seclusion as soon as possible! Then, we will attack Heizhu Island together and destroy them in one fell swoop."
Qiu Xinghuo was very angry and wanted to destroy the Black Bamboo Gang immediately.
"Deputy gang leader, let the gang leader come out of seclusion and avenge Xin Yun and Liu Ming."
"We can't wait any longer. The Black Bamboo Gang's arrogance must be suppressed."
The other guardians also had the same opinion and asked the gang leader to leave seclusion.
"Since everyone thinks so, let's do it! You go back and rest first."
Wang Xiaoshan waved his hand and asked the others to go back. He was very upset and didn't know how to explain to his elder brother.
It was his idea to provoke the Black Bamboo Gang, and it was also his idea to send Xin Yun and Liu Ming to intercept and kill Ke Wenli.
He is the biggest responsible person for such serious consequences. It was his incompetence that caused huge losses to the Red Bamboo Gang.
The eldest brother left the Hongzhu Gang to him to take care of, but he caused such heavy losses. He really couldn't see his eldest brother.
"Bring me wine, the strongest spirit wine."
Wang Xiaoshan was not in a hurry to let his eldest brother out of seclusion. He wanted to get drunk first.
Some people are in pain, while others are happy. On the Black Bamboo Island tens of millions of miles away, a victory celebration banquet is being held at the Black Bamboo Gang's headquarters.
All senior members of the Black Bamboo Gang, including Ximen Changqing, attended the banquet, and even some members of the Huashen Gang also joined in the celebration.
Killing two late-stage Void Refining Dharma protectors from the Red Bamboo Gang in one fell swoop was an extremely huge victory and a huge blow to the Red Bamboo Gang.
After this great victory, the Black Bamboo Gang and the Red Bamboo Gang are already evenly matched.
Excluding the two Dzogchen gang leaders, the Black Bamboo Gang has six late-stage Void Refining monks, and the Red Bamboo Gang only has five late-stage Void Refining monks left, but there are more mid-stage and early-stage monks.
In this way, when the Red Bamboo Gang provokes another challenge, the Black Bamboo Gang will have the courage to fight against it, and will no longer have to give in aggrievedly.
"Hahaha! It was a great fight today. I killed the two guardians of the Red Bamboo Gang. Let's see how arrogant they still are."
Ke Wenli laughed excitedly. The two protectors of the Red Bamboo Gang had been lost, and he no longer had to be afraid of the Red Bamboo Gang.
"Li Qing made the greatest contribution to this battle. If he hadn't come up with this plan, we wouldn't have killed the two guardians of the Red Bamboo Gang so easily."
"Yes, Li Qing contributed the most. I think the gang contribution is worth at least five million."
"Five million is not enough, let's go with ten million! Five million for Lu Chutong and Ke Wenli is about the same, two million for Yin Zhifeng is enough, let's forget it, haha!"
Several elders expressed their opinions one after another, affirming Ximen Changqing's contribution.
Ximen Changqing just smiled. The spiritual wine at the banquet was very good, so he drank a few more glasses.
"Okay, it's settled, Li Qing will pay a tribute of 10 million, Ke Wenli and Lu Chutong will pay a tribute of 5 million each, and Yin Zhifeng will pay a tribute of 2 million."
Li Ziming and Guo Lengshuang looked at each other and agreed to the proposal.
As soon as he became the guest elder of the Black Bamboo Gang, he received 10 million gang tributes. Ximen Changqing was undoubtedly successful and everyone envied him.
"Everyone, don't get too excited. We killed the two guardians of the Red Bamboo Gang. With their character, they will definitely not give up. While we are celebrating, let's think about how to deal with their revenge!"
Guo Lengshuang suddenly spoke and poured a basin of cold water on everyone.
After everyone heard this, they all calmed down and thought seriously about how to deal with the revenge of the Red Bamboo Gang.
"Elder Li Qing, what do you have in mind?"
Li Ziming asked immediately.
Having just received 10 million in tribute, Ximen Changqing naturally wanted to make a heart-warming analysis.
"Everyone, we killed the two guardians of the Red Bamboo Gang. They must think that it was the gang leader who quietly left seclusion and did it.
Therefore, the Red Bamboo Gang will definitely notify Wang Xiaotian who is in retreat, and then launch a large-scale attack on us, so if the gang leader continues to retreat..."
Ximen Changqing did not finish what he said, but his meaning was already very clear. If the gang leader Li Pingsong continued to retreat, the Black Bamboo Gang would still be bullied.
But Li Pingsong was eager to make a breakthrough and naturally did not want to be disturbed. If he disturbed the gang leader's practice, he would definitely be dissatisfied.
Therefore, Ximen Changqing could not directly let the gang leader out of seclusion. He could only explain the situation clearly. It was only these gang elders who had the final say whether to let the gang leader out to face the enemy.
"What Li Qing said makes sense. They don't know that Lu Chutong is still alive. Even if he is still alive, joining forces with me may not be able to kill their two guardians.
Therefore, they will definitely suspect that the gang leader took action, and then, even if their gang leader is released from confinement, then we can only let gang leader Li be released from confinement."
Ke Wenli was the first to propose that Li Pingsong be released from confinement.
"Don't worry about getting the gang leader out of seclusion. This is just a guess now. If the Hongzhu Gang leader doesn't get out of seclusion, we will definitely make the gang leader unhappy if we let the gang leader out. It's better to send someone to inquire about the news first and make sure that the Hongzhu Gang will help.
Have you really left seclusion?"
"The purpose of the gang leader's retreat is to break through the realm of integration. We can't disturb him easily. We should wait a moment!"
"Why don't you report the situation to the gang leader first, and let the gang leader decide whether to leave seclusion or retreat urgently."
"No, the most taboo thing about seclusion is being disturbed. If the gang leader knows that such a big thing has happened in the gang, how can he still calm down and practice? If something goes wrong in the practice, the road to promotion will be blocked."
"But I'm worried that the Red Bamboo Gang will suddenly come to kill us. If the gang leader is at a critical moment in his cultivation, he may not be able to come out to help us."
A group of strong men from the Black Bamboo Gang could never make up their minds.
They dare not disturb the gang leader's cultivation easily. After all, if the gang leader breaks through the bottleneck of cultivation, the Black Bamboo Gang will rise completely.
After arguing for a long time, no one had made up their mind. They just proposed to strengthen intelligence collection and determine the next move of the Red Bamboo Gang.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! If the leader of the Red Bamboo Gang is found to be out of seclusion, they will let Li Pingsong out of seclusion to fight against the powerful men of the Hong Bamboo Gang who are coming with anger.
Ximen Changqing was not surprised by this. Since this was the decision of the elders of the Black Bamboo Gang, he couldn't say anything.
Anyway, even if the Black Bamboo Gang is slaughtered, it has nothing to do with him. He can leave at any time.
Of course, since he had received 10 million in tribute, it would be wasted if he did not use it. After the banquet, he immediately went to the gang's warehouse to see what he could exchange for and learn about the various rules of the gang.
Although the Black Bamboo Gang is a gang, its configuration is similar to that of a sect. It has all the necessary parts and is very complete.
In the gang's warehouse, he exchanged several needed spiritual ores, and heard that there were many high-grade elixirs in the elixir garden, so he went to the elixir garden.
At this time, Shen Yuanwang, the elder of the alchemy hall, was digging a three-thousand-year-old elixir in the elixir garden. He wanted to refine the elixir for the monks of the sect and earn some tribute along the way.
Shen Yuanwang does not have strong fighting skills, and his cultivation level is not high enough. Refining elixirs is his greatest value, and it is also the main reason why the Black Bamboo Gang can take him in.
Of course, due to his limited level and lack of resistance, the elixirs he refined did not have a high success rate and were slightly less effective.
Whenever a strong man in the sect was injured and the elixir he refined could not recover quickly, he would complain that it was useless.
He has long been used to this.
"Elder Li Qing! What a coincidence!"
Shen Yuanwang was the first to say hello.
"Elder Shen! If you refine a furnace of elixirs, can you get a lot of tribute?"
Ximen Changqing asked curiously.
"It's not worth mentioning. It's very rare. Who told me that I'm not good at studying? The success rate of alchemy is not high and the efficacy of the medicine is not very good. It's difficult to get high tributes.
Of course, compared to Elder Chang Ruizhi, I am already pretty good, but the quality of the Tongtian Lingbao he refines is even more worrying, and the tribute he gets is not as good as mine."
Shen Yuanwang answered with a smile.
"In my opinion, there are not many high-level elixirs in the gang, and Elder Shen has few opportunities to practice, so it is naturally difficult to improve the level of alchemy. This cannot be blamed on the elders."
Ximen Changqing opened his mouth to comfort him.
"Haha! This is a gang, not a sect. It has no obligation to train you. It is a fact that you are not strong enough. The gang's elixir is not for me to practice."
Shen Yuanwang smiled helplessly, which reminded Ximen Changqing that this is a gang that only accepts capable monks, not a sect that cultivates talents. The gang cannot be blamed for lack of ability.
After exchanging knowledge about elixirs, Shen Yuanwang was impressed by Ximen Changqing. He did not expect that Ximen Changqing's knowledge of elixirs was actually as good as his own.
After leaving the elixir garden, Ximen Changqing went directly to the Earth Fire Room. He wanted to refine weapons for the Black Bamboo Gang, earn more tribute, and exchange them for the gang's resources.
As soon as he entered the Earth Fire Room, he saw dozens of gang members refining weapons. There were only two people who could refine the Heavenly Spiritual Treasure, and Chang Ruizhi was one of them.
These two people are relatively lacking in the ability to refine Tongtian Lingbao, and can only refine low-grade Tongtian Lingbao.
As for the fifth-level weapon refiners, there are six monks. They are all god-forming monks, so there is no pressure to refine magic weapons that reach the sky.
Most of the remaining weapon refiners are fourth-level Nascent Soul weapon refiners, and they are responsible for refining spiritual treasures.
Since the quality of the refined Tongtian Lingbao could hardly meet the requirements of the strong men of the sect, it has been difficult to increase the contribution of Chang Ruizhi and another sixth-level weapon refiner.
Every time they refine a heaven-reaching spiritual treasure, the tribute they receive is very low, which is similar to that of a god-transforming monk refining a heaven-reaching magic treasure.
The deputy gang leader even complained that he was wasting spiritual materials. If the Black Bamboo Gang didn't have other weapon refining talents, they would have been kicked out long ago.
"Elder Li Qing, what a coincidence!"
Chang Ruizhi smiled and greeted.
Although his status in the sect is not high, he has long been used to it. Anyway, those who scold him are deputy gang leaders and guardians who are higher in cultivation than him, so he can accept it.
"Elder Chang, you are preparing to refine the flying sword! The sword embryo is quite good, but unfortunately there are still flaws. It should be like this... You try again..."
Ximen Changqing saw that he was honest and honest and gave him some pointers.
Chang Ruizhi studied very seriously and cast it according to the method of Ximen Evergreen Sect, and the effect was much better.
"Thank you, Elder Li Qing, your ideas really enlightened me! You are also an weapon refiner, right?"
Chang Ruizhi believed that if Ximen Changqing was not a weapon refiner, it would be impossible for him to know so much. There are some knowledge about weapon refiners that only a weapon refiner could master.
"That's right, I am also a sixth-level weapon refiner. Refining the Heavenly Spiritual Treasure is not a problem. Before the Red Bamboo Gang launches an attack, I came over to refine a few Heavenly Spiritual Treasures and exchange them for some tribute."
Ximen Changqing smiled slightly and walked into an underground fire room.
"How many pieces? The Red Bamboo Gang will come to kill them soon. How many pieces of heavenly treasure can he cast? It can't be so fast!"
Watching Ximen Changqing enter the underground fire room, Chang Ruizhi frowned.
In his opinion, Ximen Changqing only has the early stage of Void Refining, and can only refine low-grade Heaven-reaching Spiritual Treasures at best. Even if his understanding of weapon refining is better than his, it is estimated that his level is not much different from his.
Of course, his view is completely wrong. Ximen Changqing's cultivation level is not as good as his, but his level of weapon refining is far superior to his.
Not long after entering the Earth Fire Chamber, Ximen Changqing took out a pile of materials and started refining them quickly. He was a physical cultivator with very strong strength. He was very quick when making the weapon embryos, and his efficiency was at least dozens of times that of Chang Ruizhi.
In less than a day, multiple artifacts were created, and it didn't take much time to carve the array patterns and temper them.
Just a few days later, Ximen Changqing refined many heavenly spiritual treasures.
"Five medium-grade Tongtian Lingbao, two high-grade Tongtian Lingbao, not bad, another improvement."
Ximen Changqing was quite satisfied when he looked at the Tongtian Lingbao he had refined. He would make some progress every time he refined the weapon, and long-term accumulation would be a great improvement.
When he opened the door to the underground fire room, Chang Ruizhi strode over.
He had just refined a low-grade Tongtian Lingbao Flying Sword, which was much better than the one he had refined before. This was the result of Ximen Changqing's guidance, and he had to be grateful.
However, when he saw the Tongtian Lingbao refined in Ximen Changqing's hand, he swallowed his words again.
"The middle-grade Tongtian Spiritual Treasure and the high-grade Tongtian Spiritual Treasure were just refined by Elder Li Qing?"
Chang Ruizhi was completely impressed by Ximen Changqing's ability in refining weapons. He simply couldn't compare with others.
"Yes, I wonder how much tribute can be exchanged?"
Ximen Changqing smiled and walked towards the warehouse where the tribute was exchanged, and Chang Ruizhi followed him.
You don't need to think about it to know that the Tongtian Lingbao refined by Ximen Changqing will definitely receive a large amount of tribute, which Chang Ruizhi cannot compare with.
As soon as they reached the warehouse, Li Ziming, Guo Lengshuang and other powerful people came. They heard that Ximen Changqing had refined seven pieces of the Heavenly Spiritual Treasure in one go, and there was even a top-grade Heavenly Spiritual Treasure. Naturally, they wanted to come and take a look.
"A top-grade heaven-reaching spiritual treasure. Elder Li Qing is only in the early stage of refining the void. He actually has such attainments in weapon refining. It is really unimaginable."
Li Ziming picked up a heavy sword and said excitedly.
This heavy sword fits his martial arts very well, and he likes it very much.
Due to the limited wealth of the gang, the Tongtian Lingbao used by Li Ziming has always been a mid-grade Tongtian Lingbao and has not yet been replaced by a top-grade Tongtian Lingbao.
Now, seeing the top-grade Tongtian Lingbao Heavy Sword in front of him, he immediately decided to take it for himself. Anyway, his tribute was enough to redeem it.
"This flying sword is very good, I like it!"
Guo Lengshuang fell in love with another high-grade Tongtian Lingbao, and planned to exchange it with tribute.
