Chapter 79: Reaching an Agreement, the Mysterious Spear Tip

~7 min read 1,387 words

"This~"

Opening their mouths, the twelve Ancestral Witches were momentarily at a loss.

It was not that the request of Tongtian Jiaozhu was difficult; on the contrary, it was extremely simple.

However, there were many secrets within this Pangu Hall, and even they themselves had not thoroughly grasped them all.

Under such circumstances, if Tongtian Jiaozhu were to wander around inside and happen to encounter something, or even obtain something, wouldn't they suffer a heavy loss?

Of course, they acknowledged the promise of Tongtian Jiaozhu.

Even if he were not a Saint, the pride of the Shangqing alone would not allow him to break his own oath.

For a moment, the group of Ancestral Witches fell silent, seemingly caught in a dilemma.

Seeing this scene, the master and disciple, Tongtian Jiaozhu and Lin Fan, were both very puzzled.

They had no idea what was going on; what was wrong with just walking around? Could it be that the twelve Ancestral Witches doubted the character of Tongtian Jiaozhu?

Thinking of this, the expression of Tongtian Jiaozhu turned somewhat unpleasant as he said: "Are you all unable to trust this seat~"

"No, no, no~"

Sensing the anger of Tongtian Jiaozhu, Dijiang immediately came to his senses and waved his hands in a hurry, saying: "We acknowledge the credibility of Tongtian Jiaozhu, and we support it as well."

"It is just that there are many secrets in the world inside, and there even exist many Forbidden Zones that even we Ancestral Witches cannot break into."

"But this point does not count for much to Tongtian Jiaozhu; after all, you are a supreme Saint, and we acknowledge your strength."

So that was it.

Hearing this, Tongtian Jiaozhu and Lin Fan suddenly realized.

Previously, they had thought the twelve Ancestral Witches doubted the character of Tongtian Jiaozhu; now it seemed they were wary that Tongtian Jiaozhu would take away the items within.

Thinking of this, Tongtian Jiaozhu did not know what to say for a moment.

For him to say he did not need them would certainly be impossible.

After all, the things left behind in Pangu Hall were very likely related to the Pangu Inheritance. Although Tongtian Jiaozhu was arrogant, even to the point of being conceited, he could not simply pretend not to see the things within.

But if he did not refuse those items, the Ancestral Witches would not be at ease letting him wander the entire area.

"Master, fellow Ancestral Witches!"

Seeing this situation, Lin Fan knew it was time for him to step in.

Whether it was Tongtian Jiaozhu or the twelve Ancestral Witches, they all had their own concerns and needs, but the existence of face made it difficult for them to speak directly.

But all of this was nothing to Lin Fan.

At the very least, he was only a junior; what he said would be much more straightforward and could also ease the awkwardness.

Thinking of this, Lin Fan immediately spoke: "Since those Forbidden Zones are so powerful, why don't you Ancestral Witches simply take Master there when the time comes!"

"If it is something like a Primordial Lingbao, then it shall belong to Master, as you Ancestral Witches do not need such things anyway."

"If there is any Inheritance within, or something that the Ancestral Witches can use, then the items shall belong to you Ancestral Witches, but the Inheritance must be shared openly and transparently with the other party!"

"In this way, neither side loses out, and you Ancestral Witches can obtain the items within to strengthen yourselves, or even increase the possibility of Proving the Dao to become a Saint; wouldn't this be killing many birds with one stone!"

Once these words were spoken, a flash of brilliance appeared in the eyes of Tongtian Jiaozhu.

It must be said that this proposal from Lin Fan made him extremely satisfied and approving.

Most importantly, if he could truly obtain a portion of the Pangu Inheritance at that time, it would be an extremely good choice for himself as well.

Not only him, but the twelve Ancestral Witches on the side felt the same.

Before it was spoken out loud, they were naturally resistant to this matter.

But now that Lin Fan had broken the ice and even proposed an agreement, it was indeed of great use to them.

Just as Lin Fan said, they could not break the Forbidden Zones, could not enter them, and could not obtain the things within.

But if they obtained the help of Tongtian Jiaozhu, then everyone could share the things within, especially in a situation where both sides could fully obtain the Inheritance; that was entirely a case of the benefits outweighing the drawbacks.

At most, it would strengthen Tongtian Jiaozhu a bit, but they could accept such a loss; after all, they would be the ones obtaining more benefits in the end.

"We have no problem with that!"

Exchanging glances, Zhujiuyin spoke first: "I wonder what Tongtian Jiaozhu thinks?"

"This seat has no problem either!"

With the corners of his mouth raised, Tongtian Jiaozhu no longer hid anything at this moment.

Even if he had to put in the effort, it was not as if he could not obtain benefits; most importantly, there should be many Pangu Inheritances within that he did not possess, and he needed this as well.

With this, both sides reached an agreement.

For a time, both Tongtian Jiaozhu and the twelve Ancestral Witches wore smiles on their faces.

Including Lin Fan, who also had the corners of his mouth raised; after all, he had facilitated this matter, and the benefits would naturally be numerous, perhaps even leading to Tongtian Jiaozhu being in such a good mood that he would bestow upon him some secret techniques from the Pangu Inheritance.

"Tongtian Jiaozhu, please strike!"

After a brief calm, Dijiang was the first to return to his senses, pointing to the barren mountain not far away: "After annihilating this demon, we will go to the areas where those few Forbidden Zones are located."

Once these words were spoken, the other Ancestral Witches also had burning gazes.

A mere demon was indeed something they could not handle.

But Tongtian Jiaozhu, at the Saint level, could resolve it with ease.

As long as the obstacle here was removed, they could then go to those Forbidden Zones and have a good search.

To tell the truth, they were also extremely curious and tempted by the things left behind by Pangu.

"Good!"

Giving his word, Tongtian Jiaozhu stopped wasting time.

With a thought, the Qingping Sword appeared directly in his hand.

Following that, Tongtian Jiaozhu tossed it casually, and the Qingping Sword flew directly toward the location of the barren mountain.

"Slash!"

With a low shout, the Qingping Sword was swung directly under the control of Tongtian Jiaozhu.

In an instant, a three-foot Sword Qi descended from the sky.

Do not be deceived by the small size of this three-foot Sword Qi; in reality, it radiated terrifying Sword Momentum, Sword Intent, and one could even faintly see a world of swords within the Sword Qi, where ten thousand swords sang in unison, their boundless sharpness seemingly intent on destroying all things.

The next second, the Sword Qi fell into the desolate mountain.

Rumble—

Rumble—

A deafening roar resounded, and a cyan beam of Sword Qi shot up into the sky.

In just a few breaths' time, the Sword Qi within began to spread, and everywhere it passed, all demonic Qi was utterly destroyed.

That demonic Qi which had left the Ancestral Witch helpless was now cleared away directly.

Just at this moment, a humming sound rang out.

One could see a spear tip fly out from within, resisting the Shangqing Sword Qi without breaking; it was filled with sinister demonic Qi, and one could faintly see the figure of a vengeful demonic spirit emerging within it.

"Interesting!"

"It is actually this!"

Seeing this object, Tongtian Jiaozhu narrowed his eyes slightly.

Seemingly having piqued his interest, Tongtian Jiaozhu raised his hand directly and grabbed toward the area in front; "Freeze!"

The next second, the spear tip froze and could not move.

"Come!"

With a soft call, like a command, the spear tip that had been flying away turned its direction and sped toward where Tongtian Jiaozhu was.
