Chapter 186

Just these few meetings.

Left a deep impression on him.

"Didn't you say back then you owed me a favor? Then these resources are naturally unnecessary."

Meng Zhangqing smiled and said, "Moreover, having just entered the Sea of Seclusion, cultivation resources are scarce for everyone; keep them for yourselves."

"If it's not enough, I still have quite a lot here."

"In the secret realm, my gains were far greater than yours."

Saying this, he even took out some.

Such an obvious opportunity to gain favor.

How could one miss it?

Sure enough, as the words fell.

The two simple brothers immediately showed moved expressions.

Since leaving the village, Senior Brother Meng was the second person to treat them so well.

As for the first, he couldn't be counted as a friend.

"Ding!"

"Favorability increased to Two Stars!"

"Obtained attribute: Stone Person Bloodline!"

"Ding!"

"Favorability increased to Two Stars!"

"Obtained attribute: Bloodline Skill 【General Armor】"

"Triggered extra reward: Earth-grade Martial Skill Proficiency Card *3!"

The system's voice rang in his mind.

A flash of joy immediately passed through Meng Zhangqing's eyes.

Not bad.

Favorability successfully increased.

Although obtaining the Stone Person Bloodline again couldn't stack, making it a useless attribute, it could be used for decomposition.

Additionally, there was the Bloodline Skill 【General Armor】.

The two Shi brothers awakened this and defeated Chijin; one can imagine it must be formidable.

Finally, an extra reward was triggered.

Three Earth-grade Martial Skill Proficiency Cards!

To be honest, at present, the value of this thing is no less than two attributes.

Almost equivalent.

With the Proficiency Card, and then befriending someone cultivating the Great Free Profound Metal Sword Art, one could effortlessly reach the Perfection Realm!

If the friend's proficiency is high, perhaps one could even save a card to upgrade the Exquisite Great Luo Sky.

So, this wave was truly a great harvest.

"Senior Brother Meng overstates it; how could we take your things? We haven't yet repaid the debt of the medullary stones from the secret realm."

Shi Guang came to his senses and hurriedly said.

"Exactly, exactly."

Shi Yao also nodded hurriedly.

"We hope Senior Brother Meng will not decline these things; they are also our small token of gratitude."

Shi Guang said, "As for the favor mentioned back then, with Senior Brother Meng's strength, we truly do not know when you might need to use it here; these things are more practical."

Having finished speaking, both immediately showed determined expressions.

They looked at Meng Zhangqing in unison, with the clear implication that he must accept them.

"Alright... then."

Seeing this, Meng Zhangqing understood he could not refuse, so he accepted them.

No one ever complains about having too many resources.

He naturally would not either.

But having already obtained good attributes from the two, taking real-world resources felt slightly awkward.

Hoo!

Seeing Meng Zhangqing accept them, the two immediately showed happy smiles.

In that case, if they told their mother later, they surely wouldn't get scolded.

"Come, sit for a while, let's chat."

Meng Zhangqing gestured for the two to sit on the stone chairs nearby.

He had originally thought to go to other parts of the Zong Sect later to find detailed records about the Stone Person Bloodline.

But now thinking about it, it was completely unnecessary.

The people were right in front of him.

Moreover, the matter of the Shi brothers' bloodline was already almost common knowledge.

He could ask directly without any concerns.

The two immediately sat down.

"Senior Brother Meng, this thing pokes the anus."

Shi Yao stood up.

The cylindrical stone chair was actually quite large, yet with both of their physical bodies so massive—especially after breaking through to the Sea-Clearing realm—they seemed even taller.

When standing, they were nearly four meters tall.

Like little giants.

In the end, the two simply sat on the ground.

Watching their appearance, Meng Zhangqing once again gave the System a thumbs-up in his heart; without the System, he would have had to seriously consider whether to fuse with the Stone Person bloodline.

If this expansion continued.

His future partner would likely have to be sought from outside the Human Race.

Since this was casual conversation.

The purpose could not be too obvious.

So Meng Zhangqing began chatting about other topics.

Such as where the two were from, what their hobbies were, and so on.

Perhaps they truly regarded him as a friend.

Shi Guang and Shi Yao held back nothing and offered no evasion, answering everything.

Thus, they learned the two came from a very remote deep mountain.

There lay a small village cut off from the world.

They had originally not intended to leave.

Until one day, their mother told them to venture out and restore the glory of the Stone People.

"One day, I will definitely set foot in that so-called Undead King City and reclaim the glory belonging to the Stone People!"

Shi Yao suddenly stood up in anger.

Clenching his fists.

"Undead King City?"

Meng Zhangqing frowned slightly; the name was very unfamiliar, something he had never heard of.

It was estimated that there was some ancient grudge between them and the Stone People.

And this grudge was most likely something he, in his current state, could not get involved in.

For now, he would just pretend not to have heard it.

"Speaking of bloodlines, you two junior brothers must possess the legendary Stone Person bloodline."

Meng Zhangqing asked what he already knew.

"Yes."

Shi Guang nodded.

"I have heard that the Stone Person bloodline specializes in defense..."
