In a certain box, Xu Yique looked at Zhou An with a half-smile, and chuckled:
"Young Zhou Zhou, can you speak now?"
Hear the words.
After Zhou An looked around, he looked respectful and said solemnly:
"This matter is important. To prevent the walls from having ears, I hope our seniors will take action to cover it up!"
He knew the importance of this secret. Once it was spread out, it would be shocking.
same.
Once the news leaks out, his chance of breakthrough will be gone!
This is currently the only opportunity to break through the foundation building period, so we are naturally extremely cautious.
After hearing this, Xu Yique's original curiosity became much more solemn.
It is no small matter to make the other party be so careful!
'Is it possible that this little monk in the Qi Refining Stage has a valuable treasure or an extremely precious elixir to offer?'
As for a casual cultivator, what he wants is nothing more than to join the Beicang Sect or seek a breakthrough opportunity?
at this point.
He has been struggling in the world of immortality for many years. The moment he saw the other person, he thought of it!
'But judging from the way this little friend Zhou asked his old friend and the younger generation to avoid him, it seems that what the other party wants is the latter?'
certainly.
It's also possible that both are possible.
But the possibility of the latter is undoubtedly more important than the former.
After all, cultivation is the most important reliance in the world of immortality.
In the moment of thought.
Thoughts passed through his mind.
Even so, Xu Yique's movements were not slow at all.
Reach out and wave!
A nearly transparent light curtain enveloped this private room.
at the same time!
Xu Yique's eyes fell on Zhou An again.
Seeing this, Zhou An also knew that this was the other party's signal to him to make it clear.
Zhou An hesitated for a moment, and the corners of his mouth moved slightly.
A clear voice sounded in Xu Yique's ears.
Xu Yique, who originally looked calm, narrowed his pupils after hearing this message.
next moment.
There was a cold light in his eyes, locked tightly on Zhou An, and said sternly:
"Do you know what will happen to you if this statement is false?"
Seeing the other party's serious expression, Zhou An calmly nodded and said:
"Junior naturally knows!"
This was something he had thought of long before he planned it!
Then, in order to prove the reliability of the news, he added:
"My grandfather was also a disciple of the Baiyun Sect during his lifetime, and he performed tasks in the [Eternal Life Palace]."
Hear this.
Xu Yique naturally knew where the [Eternal Life Hall] of Baiyunmen was?
That is where the soul lamp of the core monks in the sect is located, allowing them to observe the life and death status of their disciples at any time.
Even Beicangmen has similar places.
Moreover, Xu Yique also knew that the authenticity of the information told by the other party could not be determined?
But his grandfather was once a disciple of the Baiyun Sect, and he once accepted the task of guarding the [Eternal Life Palace]. It should be true, and he would not be fooled by false news.
after all!
Although his grandfather has passed away, this kind of mission is not secret information, so naturally it is easy to inquire?
If this news is true...
The fact that Patriarch Zhong of Baiyun Sect has passed away long ago is very likely to be true.
That’s really the case!
Once the news spreads, the world of Jin's immortal cultivators will face a precarious situation!
It is absolutely difficult for Baiyun Sect to maintain such a huge sect's foundation with just one middle-stage Nascent Soul monk.
Especially among the two medium-sized spiritual veins, one of them must be unable to be protected.
In the moment of thought.
Xu Yique's eyes were filled with uncertainty, as if he was thinking about it?
It seems like he is thinking about how to get the maximum benefit?
'Maybe the opportunity for me to break through to the realm of golden elixir lies here!'
After a long time, he made a decision in his mind.
However, the first priority at the moment is to appease the monks in the Qi Refining Stage in front of them and not let the news get out.
Thinking of this, the calm look on Xu Yique's face disappeared. He put on a soft smile and said gently:
"My friend, this news is of great importance, and I cannot just listen to your words!
How about waiting for me to confirm whether this news is true or false, and then discuss it?"
Hear the words.
Zhou An smiled coldly in his heart.
How could he not know that the other party was stalling for time?
after all!
Once the other party has other ideas, and after a period of time, it is enough for the other party to plan for sufficient benefits, and you will become a dispensable role.
When the time comes, wouldn't it be like making a wedding dress for others, letting the other party control it, and leaving no room for reversal?
Therefore, it is naturally impossible for Zhou An to agree.
Although he was extremely disdainful of the other party's face, he still said solemnly
"Senior, everything junior said is true!
At this point, the younger generation can make a big oath of inner demons.
If the senior is still not at ease, he can send someone to follow the junior. Even if the junior is not allowed to leave Beicang Immortal City while inquiring about information, there is nothing wrong with it."
The words have not yet fallen.
Without waiting for Xu Yique's response, Zhou An directly swore the inner demon oath.
For this moment, he had already prepared a lot of back-up plans, and his preparations could not be described as insufficient.
See this.
Xu Yique also knew in his heart that the strategy of delaying time would not work.
Then he smiled and said:
"Since I dare to make a big oath about my inner demons, I am naturally willing to believe what I say!"
Enough talking!
Then he said
"My little friend's news is of great importance, and I am not a stingy person. I wonder what treasures my little friend needs?"
Hear this.
Zhou An couldn't help but feel ecstatic, his plan was finally going to succeed.
Immediately, he suppressed the joy in his heart and said quickly:
"Junior, I have nothing to ask for, I only hope that my seniors can help me make a breakthrough!"
When Xu Yique heard this, he also had two murderous intentions within this short breath.
Originally, if the other party understood the situation, he wouldn't mind rewarding him with some treasures afterwards.
But the other party directly rejected his good intentions.
She also used the inner demon's oath to rebuff him.
The second time, it was even more outrageous. It was so outrageous that he was actually asked to help the opponent break through.
This is very different from giving the other party a chance for a big breakthrough.
after all!
To help the opponent break through, you need to use a foundation-building pill, and you don't know how many resources you need to use to complete the opponent's success.
It's completely unknown.
Even a real person in the Golden Core Realm would not dare to pat his chest and guarantee that there are enough resources to help a monk in the Qi Refining Stage break through to the Foundation Building Stage.
What's more, he is only a foundation-building monk.
Just when Xu Yique was about to pretend to be a snake, stabilize the opponent, and find an opportunity to destroy this junior.
Zhou An seemed to have noticed the bad intentions of the foundation-building monk in front of him, and then said:
"By the way, junior also forgot to inform senior?
During the time limit for the seniors to confirm whether this news is true or false, the seniors are asked not to ban the juniors from going out.
If senior insists on doing this...
The news that the junior told the senior will definitely spread throughout Beicang Immortal City.
Please forgive me for this matter, senior, as this junior has no choice but to make this move!"
Hear the words.
Xu Yique suppressed the overwhelming anger in his heart, still had a smile on his face, and said calmly:
"Of course I understand!
You don’t need to think too much, little friend.”
Then he changed the topic and continued:
"But my friend, you want me to help you break through. This is really embarrassing for me!"
"You also know how rare the Foundation Establishment Pill is!
Even if I spend all my money, I can’t guarantee it.”
"The most I can do is give my little friend a chance to make a breakthrough!"
"No matter how much, I have no choice but to do it!"
At the end, Xu Yique's old face showed a hint of helplessness.
Obviously.
Xu Yique knew that the other party was fully prepared and could not eliminate the trouble caused by the news...
Therefore, he can only bargain with Zhou An on resources now.
The initiative is firmly in Zhou An's hands.
The premise is that the boat cannot capsize.
Otherwise, everything is false.
Cultivation is the foundation and basis of a monk.
the other side.
After Zhou An heard this, he stopped trying to hide it and said calmly:
"Since the senior is unwilling to fulfill the junior's desire to pursue the Tao, then the junior will take his leave!"
With that said, Zhou An cupped his hands towards Xu Yique and prepared to leave.
Seeing this, Xu Yique quickly spoke:
"My friend, please slow down!"
Hearing this, Zhou An's footsteps stopped.
He knew that if he insisted on leaving, there was a high chance that the other party would take action directly at the next moment.
Therefore, the wise Zhou An chose to stop.
At this time!
Seeing the other party stop, Xu Yique sighed and said:
"How about this!
Three foundation-building pills are my greatest sincerity.
If the little friend still doesn’t want to, I will never stop the little friend from leaving!”
The words fell.
Xu Yique looked at Zhou An closely, as if waiting for the other party to make the final decision.
See this.
Zhou An also knew that this was the bottom line in the other party's mind.
At the same time, he also understood that he had no choice.
Unless you choose to fight to the death.
Because, on the one hand, there are three opportunities for breakthrough, and on the other hand, there is death and destruction. Everyone knows how to choose?
Of course, Zhou An also knew that the possibility of Xu Yique taking action was extremely slim.
after all!
Once the other party chooses to take action against him, the secret will spread throughout the entire fairy city.
By then, everyone will know the news, and the other party will naturally be unable to plan for their own interests.
Although the truth is this, Zhou An doesn't dare to gamble with his own life.
The chance of a breakthrough before, coupled with his four spiritual root qualifications, the chance of a breakthrough is too small and can be ignored.
Because of this, he refused without hesitation.
But now that the opponent has received three [Foundation Building Pills], with the help of these three pills, he has great hope of making a breakthrough.
Before, he had nothing and no hope at all.
Therefore, he naturally has the courage and determination to risk his life.
But now he has great hope of making a breakthrough, so naturally he doesn't want to gamble with his life anymore.
This is human nature.
That's when...
Xu Yique was completely relieved when he saw Zhou An was silent.
Being silent also means thinking.
Once you think about it, you will no longer have the determination to be desperate and never give up until you reach your goal.
Even after considering it, Zhou An still disagrees, and he doesn't care.
That's just a way to raise prices.
As long as he doesn't let go, this little monk in the Qi refining stage will have no choice but to give up.
Xu Yique, who had a firm grip on human nature, was silently calculating in his heart.
This was also because Zhou An's cultivation time was still short, and the city government could not compare with this old fox, so he was caught by Xu Yique.
If he were someone who had been in the world of immortality for many years, he would never be manipulated so easily.
Less leaning!
Zhou An slowly raised his head and said slowly:
"Thank you, senior, for the reward!"
In an instant, Xu Yique's expression became gentler, and he knew clearly that the junior in front of him had compromised.
Just when he was about to speak, Zhou An said again:
"But this junior has an uninvited invitation!"
At this moment, Xu Yique's face was startled, and then he said:
"But it doesn't matter!"
Hear the words.
Zhou An took a deep breath and said with firm eyes
"Senior, please make a big oath from your inner demons and not to plot against me in any way in the future."
The reason why he dared to act so boldly was because he firmly believed that the other party would not take action against him in a short period of time because of his disrespectful words.
after all!
The benefits that can be leveraged by this news are simply too great.
That is to say, his cultivation level is low and he cannot contact those strong people.
otherwise.
It doesn’t have to be this way.
And he didn’t believe that the other party could give up this ‘opportunity from heaven’.
It was precisely because he understood the key here that he dared to force a strong man in the foundation-building stage to swear the inner demon oath.
Monks may take their face very seriously, but that's relative.
If compared with diligent cultivation, it seems not worth mentioning.
But Zhou An was afraid of being plotted afterwards, so he thought of a response strategy early.
This condition is the foundation and the condition for his survival.
Otherwise, everything will be empty talk afterwards.
When Xu Yique heard this and saw this junior's firm eyes, he also knew that it would be impossible not to make this oath of inner demons.
Unless he is willing to lose this opportunity.
Before, he was thinking about the aftermath and decided to eradicate the situation.
Obviously, this junior had already taken precautions, so he was forced to do so.
certainly.
If he does not want to experience the scenery of a higher realm in the future, such as the Golden Core Realm, Nascent Soul Realm...
Even if he swears a big oath about his inner demons, he won't take it seriously?
Don't worry about it either.
Anyway, the inner demon's oath won't have any effect until you reach a certain level.
If he aspires to the path of immortality, once he breaks his oath, it will be a natural chasm for him to cross the realm.
And he is just a monk who wants to continue on the path to immortality.
After all, how many monks who can embark on the path to immortality don't want to take a step closer?
same!
The reason why Zhou An is so sure is that he has already inquired about the approximate age and temperament of many foundation-building monks in Beicangmen...
Therefore, he dared to use this method to ensure his own safety.
Consideration is not considered incomplete.
After pondering for a moment, Xu Yique nodded;
"Can!"
Immediately, he swore the 'Heart Demon Oath' directly in front of the junior in the Qi Refining Stage.
Seeing this scene, Zhou An was completely relieved.
Soon!
Zhou An looked at Xu Yique, who had long since lost his gentle expression and turned expressionless, and said:
"Senior Xu, this junior has one more request!"
Hear the words.
Xu Yique felt that the junior in front of him was really embarrassed, so he said coldly:
"My little friend, being too greedy is not a good thing, right?"
"Senior, you have misunderstood!" Zhou An said with a bitter smile:
"Junior wants to ask senior to help me rent a cave!"
"In order to meet the senior, the junior has spent all his wealth."
As he spoke, he looked outside the box.
The implication is self-evident.
Finally, Zhou An's eyes were fixed on the fragrant spiritual meal in the box.
Then he said:
“The cost of this private room is not cheap, and it will also cost this junior’s last spiritual stone!
Please also ask the seniors to help the juniors one last time!"
