Chapter 1725: Lock Heaven Grand Formation

Luo Jiuyou stood beside Ye Zhangqing without hesitation, eyes blazing with fighting spirit as they said.

Although for the sake of the bigger picture, their ancestor chose to remain silent regarding Ye Zhangqing.

But compared to the Human Huánggōng's ancestor, the Nether Race naturally leans more toward the Dao Yi Shengdi; however, this longevity method is too important, so we must weigh the pros and cons.

But before entering the Land of Exile, their ancestor had already instructed Luo Jiuyou that if, within the Path to Immortality, Qing Shen Ji and Tian Xing chose to act, Luo Jiuyou must do everything possible to help Ye Zhangqing.

Regarding this, Luo Jiuyou naturally did not refuse; even if the ancestor didn't say so, he would still do it.

And Hei Lin, although he didn't speak, from the fact that he also stepped forward, standing together with Luo Jiuyou, it could be seen that Hei Lin's intention was the same as Luo Jiuyou's.

If Qing Shen Ji and Tian Xing were to act, the two of them would certainly not stand by idly.

By then, it would be three against two, and Qing Shen Ji and Tian Xing would not have the advantage.

Facing Luo Jiuyou and Hei Lin's actions, Qing Shen Ji and Tian Xing showed no change in expression, as if they had long anticipated this.

This is also normal; before entering the Path to Immortality, the two had already anticipated such a situation.

Given Luo Jiuyou and Hei Lin's relationship with Ye Zhangqing, not taking action would be the strange thing.

Back when they were in the Dao Yi Shengdi, the three practically wanted to share a bed; Luo Jiuyou and Hei Lin even more so—whenever they had time, they'd run to the Canteen, not returning to their own Dong Fu.

If Ye Zhangqing hadn't driven them away, the two would probably have just slept directly in the courtyard.

So, the two standing up and sharing Ye Zhangqing's enmity toward the enemy is not surprising, nor is there anything unexpected about it.

However, since they had long guessed this would be the outcome, Qing Shen Ji and Tian Xing naturally had their own preparations.

Qing Shen Ji looked at Luo Jiuyou and Hei Lin, who were staunchly supporting Ye Zhangqing, and said lightly.

"Luo Jiuyou, Hei Lin, you two should not interfere in this matter; my Divine Race promises each of you two-tenths of the Human Race's fortune."

Upon hearing this, Luo Jiuyou and Hei Lin both furrowed their brows.

They naturally know how precious a race's fortune is, yet Qing Shen Ji, upon speaking, immediately offered two-tenths.

The two are not stupid; regardless of whether Qing Shen Ji's words are true or false, since she mentioned the Human Race's fortune, there is no doubt this is the price offered by the Human Huánggōng's ancestor.

The source of a race's fortune is generally kept in the hands of the hegemonic power.

Although previously the Dao Yi Shengdi had shown a strong tendency to replace the Human Huánggōng and become the orthodox Human Race,

but because the time was too short, many things had not yet been put into practice.

This Human Race fortune's source still remains in the hands of the Human Huánggōng.

Grinning, Luo Jiuyou said with a playful expression.

"I was wondering why you two are putting in so much effort—turns out it's the Human Race's fortune. That old immortal from the Human Huánggōng really is willing to spill blood, but you're directly giving out four-tenths; then how much will your Divine Race and Heavenly Race have left?"

"That old immortal couldn't possibly give you all of the Human Race's fortune, could he?"

Luo Jiuyou's words were full of teasing, as if saying, "I just don't believe it."

In his view, the Human Huánggōng's ancestor being able to produce half of the Human Race's fortune is already the limit.

And when Qing Shen Ji spoke, she directly gave each of him and Hei Lin two-tenths; thus, how much would the Divine Race and Heavenly Race have left? As little as one-tenth?

Obviously that's impossible—it's like trying to pacify a child.

Having been directly called out by Luo Jiuyou, Qing Shen Ji didn't mind, shaking her head slightly as she said.

"Luo Jiuyou, sometimes being too clever isn't a good thing; to speak frankly, if you're willing to talk, we have many opportunities to sit down and discuss slowly."

"By then, how this piece of meat is divided can be negotiated by all, provided you show sincerity."

Qing Shen Ji said calmly, but regarding this, Luo Jiuyou gave no face, grinning as he said.

"Heh, I could even give you a bit of my feces to eat."

Faced with such obvious mockery, Qing Shen Ji showed no anger at all, her expression unchanged—she was probably already used to Luo Jiuyou's mouth.

Everyone had interacted before; regarding Luo Jiuyou's mouth, Qing Shen Ji had long since learned its ways.

Put simply, it's like a dog's mouth can't spit out ivory; arguing with this guy over verbal skill only ends up hurting oneself.

So, Qing Shen Ji didn't care at all, or rather, she simply didn't take it in, responding indifferently.

"I had long guessed this would be the result, but haven't you considered that, clearly we two had already anticipated you and Hei Lin would staunchly support him, so why do we still insist on taking action?"

What Qing Shen Ji said is indeed also a puzzling point for Luo Jiuyou and Hei Lin.

Since they had long anticipated this outcome, why would the two still insist on taking action?

It's obvious that one should have guessed early on that Luo Jiuyou and Hei Lin could not possibly fail to staunchly support Ye Zhangqing.

However, before Luo Jiuyou could speak, a flash of light appeared from Qing Shen Ji's Space Ring, and immediately a formation disk taller than a person appeared beside her.

Such a large formation disk—Ye Zhangqing had never seen one like it; this formation disk is simply enormously larger than an ordinary one.

Moreover, the patterns on the formation disk are densely packed, extremely complex.

Compared to an ordinary formation disk, it's completely like two different things.

However, Luo Jiuyou and Hei Lin, standing nearby, upon seeing this formation disk, their faces instantly darkened.

Ye Zhangqing didn't know this formation disk, but the two of them did; Luo Jiuyou changed from his previous carefree smile, gritting his teeth as he said.

"I never expected that old immortal would even be willing to give you this."

In terms of foundation, the Dao Yi Shengdi, the Nether Race, the Human Huánggōng, and Yongye—these old powers—are still somewhat lacking.

So Ye Zhangqing doesn't know what this formation disk signifies, but Luo Jiuyou, as the young master of the Nether Race, knows.

This formation disk is named the Lock Heaven Grand Formation, and it is one of the Human Huánggōng's sect-protecting supreme treasures.

Its grade has reached the half-step Ancestor level.

In the Zhu Tian Wan Jie, the formation disks one can see or hear of on the market are at most Emperor-level.

Even Emperor-level formation disks are rare to encounter, much less obtain—just like in the Haotu Shijie, even though the Formation Sect Alliance Elder has broken through to Emperor-level formation master.

Yet, over such a long time, the Emperor-level formation disks he has etched amount to only one piece.

This was still only achieved with the help of the Dao Yi Shengdi, after mobilizing the entire Haotu Shijie's resources.

The failure rate is high, it requires many resources, and many of them are extremely precious.

Even an Emperor-level Formation Master, managing to successfully inscribe an Emperor-level Formation once within a hundred attempts, would be considered quite good.

Therefore, within the Zhu Tian Wan Jie, the price of an Emperor-level Formation Disk can be said to have price but no market.

And the Half-step Ancestor Realm above the Emperor-level Formation Disk is even more like an existence from legend.

Scanning the whole Zhu Tian Wan Jie, only top-tier forces like the Human Emperor Palace, the Nether Clan, and Yongye possess them, and they exist as a foundation, not lightly used.
