Chapter 215: The proactive Min Longyu, unlocking the storage bag restrictions

~18 min read 3,528 words

Amidst the laughter and chatter.

Murderous intent was hidden!

Min Longyu trembled all over.

Looking at Luo Chen, he said nervously, "I think you wouldn't."

"Oh?" Luo Chen looked at him with a half-smile. "You seem to know me very well?"

Min Longyu lowered his head.

"Since the Battle of Xielue Valley, I have been paying attention to you. Especially after you reorganized the Poshan Gang and established the Luo Tian Society with your own strength..."

"Treating Mili kindly, taking in female cultivators who came out of Tianxiang Tower."

"Wang Yuan is just a body refiner, yet you offered him the conditions of a Foundation Establishment retainer."

"Duan Feng has a feud with the Duan family, and you personally attacked the Duan family."

"People like Zhou Yuanli and Liu Qiang are just mediocre, yet they were heavily used under you."

"I know the Sima trio; they are outsiders, yet they hold high positions in the Luo Tian Society."

After a long time, he slowly raised his head, with less nervousness and more firmness.

Looking at Luo Chen.

"Min considers himself to have poor judgment, but I will not misjudge a person again and again."

"Like you, warm and generous, kind to friends, ruthless to enemies, treating talent without sticking to one pattern, and being respectful to the virtuous..."

Luo Chen's eyebrows jumped wildly.

Too much! Too much!

Where did I get so many advantages? Saying it made me almost feel like a saint.

"I believe you are absolutely a wise master!"

"Far better than the likes of Mi and Wang!"

Who doesn't like to hear flattery!

Luo Chen was excited in his heart, but it didn't show on his face.

"Just relying on these is not enough."

Min Longyu said seriously, "At the Foundation Establishment ceremony, you taught the secrets of Foundation Establishment without reservation, which shows you are not a stingy person."

"And you have already reached Foundation Establishment, yet you made a strong move at the Huo family auction and bid for a Foundation Establishment Pill. Who this pill was bid for is self-evident."

"I won't be hypocritical either; I defected to you precisely for the Foundation Establishment Pill!"

So he finally said his true intention!

Luo Chen's smile gradually faded.

Staring at Min Longyu, who was wearing a high crown and broad belt and had his own rules.

"In the Battle of Xielue Valley, you once broke the Xutu Great Formation and led the crowd to encircle and kill me."

"In the Battle of Gaoling Plain, although you helped me, you also defected on the spot and betrayed Wang Haichao."

"Do you think, standing from my perspective, I should accept you?"

Pausing.

Luo Chen said gloomily, "Not killing you in public is already my favor for you turning from evil to good; don't think of me as too kind."

There was hatred.

And there was a stain on his character.

Who would accept such a person?

Min Longyu opened his mouth, and for a moment, he was speechless.

In his eyes, there was even more confusion and panic.

*Whoosh!

A jade pendant fell before him.

"Make a Great Dao oath that you will never betray me in your life!"

Min Longyu hesitated and took the jade pendant, feeling even more confused in his heart.

If it were a Great Dao oath, he could understand.

But why use a jade pendant as a carrier?

"And promise to provide formation help to the Luo Tian Society without any selfishness."

Looking at the hesitant Min Longyu, Luo Chen said indifferently, "I also make an oath that before you reach the age of sixty, I will find a Foundation Establishment spiritual medicine for you. As for that Foundation Establishment Pill I bid for, don't even think about it."

Min Longyu was stunned.

That Foundation Establishment Pill could not be coveted.

But he promised to find another Foundation Establishment spiritual medicine for him?

Even, he would also make an oath?

Taking a deep breath, Min Longyu no longer hesitated and immediately made the Great Dao oath.

He was quite decisive!

Seeing this, Luo Chen also made the oath to find the medicine.

When the oath was first formed, two faint lights flashed out from the two of them and merged into the jade pendant.

Luo Chen performed several hand seals, and after the jade pendant absorbed the faint lights, it became even more profound.

Reaching out to summon the jade pendant back, Luo Chen put it into his storage bag.

The Soul-Binding Oath was initially formed, and both sides had constraints, and there was even a wisp of connection between the souls of both sides.

However, the main body of this oath was on Min Longyu's side.

Luo Chen only needed to complete the oath to find the medicine, and the oath would be considered dissolved.

By then, he would no longer be bound by this oath.

Min Longyu only felt a bit uncomfortable on his body, as if he were being controlled by others.

However, that feeling soon faded away.

He twisted his body unnaturally. "Then what about me now?"

"Go find Murong Qinglian and Duan Feng; the former will register you, and the latter needs your formation help."

Luo Chen smiled. "Our Sky Eagle flying boat looks intact, but the internal formations are severely damaged, and now is the time for you to contribute."

Min Longyu breathed a sigh of relief.

It was good to have something to do.

Only in this way could he quickly integrate into the Luo Tian Society without having to face those strange gazes again.

"Senior! Then I will take my leave."

"Go!"

The door opened, and sunlight spilled in.

Min Longyu, who was clearly under restraint, walked with even firmer steps after stepping out.

Luo Chen watched his back and couldn't help but shake his head.

This was probably the helplessness of rogue cultivators!

All things are not controlled by people, and it is difficult to compete with fate.

Yet he could give him a glimmer of survival in the face of hopelessness for Foundation Establishment.

"Foundation Establishment spiritual medicine? Hehe!"

This was not a difficult task.

Now he had the realm, the strength, and even more wealth.

At the auction, as long as he revealed a little, he could fight for one.

Even if not, he could refine Emperor Flowing Pulp to fulfill this promise.

However, the latter could not be exposed unless it was a last resort.

Luo Chen had long seen it clearly.

The Foundation Establishment Pill at the auction was not so much a glimmer of hope left by the great sects for rogue cultivators.

It was better to say it was a means used by the great sects to control the bottom-level rogue cultivators.

With this glimmer of hope, rogue cultivators would not fight to the death and stand on the opposite side of the great sects.

And he also possessed the means to allow people to reach Foundation Establishment.

Moreover, it was the kind of means comparable to a Foundation Establishment Pill.

If it were exposed...

"The disaster would be far greater than orthodox cultivation elixirs like Jade Marrow Pills!"

After sighing, the door slowly closed.

"Did the President arrange a position for you?"

"None."

"Was the salary mentioned?"

"None."

"Where is your ancestral home? What is your realm?"

"From Tianlan Immortal City, currently at the peak of Qi Refining."

Murong Qinglian looked at the man before her in surprise.

He really joined the Luo Tian Society!

Even though she had expected it, she still felt it was incredible.

From the moment this person debuted, he had always stood on their opposite side.

Whether it was the Poshan Gang period, abusing Han Dang to death, or the Battle of Xielue Valley, breaking the formation alone.

Years passed, and things changed.

This person instead turned from darkness to light and became a member of the Luo Tian Society.

Moreover, with a realm second only to the President and the Hall Master of the Battle Hall, he had no position or salary arrangement.

It seems this person's goal in joining the Luo Tian Society is very clear!

In surprise, she asked for detailed information while carefully recording the corresponding information in the roster.

【Min Longyu: Realm: Peak of Qi Refining】

【Age: 56 years old】

【Spiritual Roots: Gold, Fire, Earth, three spiritual roots】

【Skill: Formation】

【Position: Ordinary member】

"It's all recorded. Currently, your treatment is based on the basic salary of a ninth-level Qi Refining cultivator. It's not much! Only 300 spirit stones a month and one bottle of Dust-Clearing Pills. It might change in the future, but that's how it is for now."

Hearing Murong Qinglian's words, Min Longyu was shocked in his heart.

Isn't this much?

Although he now had a considerable net worth, having secretly picked up a batch of resources on the Gaoling Plain battlefield.

But the Luo Tian Society's treatment for ordinary ninth-level Qi Refining cultivators had clearly exceeded the standard of the Dajiang Gang back then!

Moreover, listening to this Hall Master Murong, it might change later?

Naturally, it wouldn't change for the worse; it must be changing in a better direction.

Shaking his head, he sighed: "I have always heard that Senior Dan Chenzi treats his subordinates extremely well, but I didn't expect the basic salary to be so generous."

Murong Qinglian smoothed her hanging hair and smiled lightly: "That's natural. If you can hold important positions such as deacon, elder, or hall master like us, the treatment will be even higher."

"Oh?"

Murong Qinglian was a very clever woman.

Early on, she was Qin Liangchen's virtuous wife, and in the middle, she was in charge of the Poshan Gang's Medicine Hall.

Later, she served as the Hall Master of the Luo Tian Society's Merit Hall, responsible for personnel changes, merit judgment, and other duties.

After years of training, calling her sophisticated and worldly was not an exaggeration.

She saw it very clearly.

The reason Luo Chen didn't hold a grudge against Min Longyu and recruited him was obviously not because of his peak Qi Refining realm.

No matter how high the realm, it couldn't be higher than Luo Chen and Wang Yuan.

It was because of the other party's outstanding formation attainments that shone repeatedly!

Not giving a position now and not mentioning salary was just to temper the other party's temper.

In the future, he would definitely be heavily used.

Under this trend, she didn't mind helping Luo Chen.

Generous treatment was a fragrant bait!

"Take me as an example!"

Murong Qinglian smiled slightly. "As a Hall Master, my monthly salary is 500 spirit stones. Plus one bottle of Dust-Clearing Pills, one box of Soul-Calming Incense, and a portion of Foundation-Cultivating Spirit Liquid specially provided by the President."

"I know Dust-Clearing Pills and Soul-Calming Incense; they are very suitable for ninth-level Qi Refining cultivators to take." Min Longyu nodded, then asked curiously: "What is Foundation-Cultivating Spirit Liquid?"

He knew that there was Foundation-Cultivating Spirit Liquid on the market.

But that kind of common goods shouldn't be specially mentioned in the salary column, right!

Sure enough, Murong Qinglian's words made his breathing quicken.

"This Foundation-Cultivating Spirit Liquid was specially improved by the President based on prescriptions on the market."

"It has miraculous effects on a cultivator's Qi, blood, physique, and meridians."

"With long-term medicinal baths, it has great benefits for breaking through to Foundation Establishment!"

Min Longyu's eyes lit up.

He asked himself that his preparations for Foundation Establishment were already very perfect.

Whether it was the purity of spiritual power or the soul foundation, he could be called a leader among his peers.

Only in the aspect of physique was there no way to start.

Those ordinary prescriptions on the market might be useful for early and mid-stage cultivators.

But for a peak Qi Refining cultivator like him, the effect was minimal.

If he could obtain the Foundation-Cultivating Spirit Liquid bestowed by Luo Chen, wouldn't he be able to prepare for Foundation Establishment even more fully?

Looking at Murong Qinglian with envy.

Min Longyu said: "I don't know when I will have such treatment and be able to enjoy the body-refining spirit medicine improved by Senior Dan Chenzi."

Murong Qinglian looked at him with a half-smile.

"If you just want Foundation-Cultivating Spirit Liquid, it's actually not difficult."

"Oh, how so?" Min Longyu's heart jumped.

"It's very simple; once you join the society, there is a merit increase and decrease mechanism."

"If you can accumulate enough merit, you can find Deacon Sima Wenjie of the Merit Hall to exchange for Foundation-Cultivating Spirit Liquid."

"Merit?"

Min Longyu muttered.

He was a person with a very strong sense of purpose.

His execution was also particularly strong.

The family was useless, so he followed Zhou Qing and went far away to Tianlan.

Wang Haichao was unkind, so he was unrighteous and defected on the spot.

Now following Luo Chen, making a Great Dao oath, and joining the Luo Tian Society.

Everything was for Foundation Establishment.

Then naturally, this Foundation-Cultivating Spirit Liquid that helped with Foundation Establishment could not be missed!

"Accumulating merit is not difficult; according to your specialty, contribute to the Luo Tian Society within your ability. Over time, you can accumulate merit."

"Such as planting spiritual herbs in the Medicine Hall, refining elixirs in the Elixir Hall, refining magic tools in the Tool Hall, etc..."

Min Longyu's eyes lit up; he remembered Luo Chen's instructions to him just now.

"I heard from Senior Dan Chenzi that the Sky Eagle flying boat we are riding has severely damaged formations?"

Up to the task!

Murong Qinglian smiled and said: "That's exactly it; we urgently need your help."

"Within my ability, I am duty-bound!"

Min Longyu immediately patted his chest.

It was just the formation of a top-grade flying boat; it couldn't stump him.

After saying that, he turned and prepared to accumulate merit.

However, Murong Qinglian called him back.

"Now that you are also a member of our society, your identity token will soon be customized by the Tool Hall."

"In the future... don't call him Senior Dan Chenzi anymore."

Looking at those meaningful eyes, Min Longyu was stunned.

Immediately, he nodded solemnly.

"It should be so; the President can tolerate me, and I will certainly not let him down!"

After saying that, he turned and left.

Murong Qinglian smiled slightly and put away the roster.

After these recent events, the Luo Tian Society could be considered to have experienced another round of removing the dross and selecting the essential.

The cohesion of the surviving cultivators had reached a certain level.

It was probably even better than some small sects.

After all, everyone had walked through battle after battle, supporting each other.

Even some rogue cultivators who had grudges before began to truly identify with the identity of a Luo Tian Society cultivator.

And Min Longyu's joining could be considered to have completely made up for the Luo Tian Society's shortcomings in the formation path.

Duan Feng was still better at casting weapons.

Regarding formations, he could only say he had dabbled in them, and it definitely couldn't be called proficient.

"If he can succeed in Foundation Establishment, it will undoubtedly be a fortunate event for the Luo Tian Society. Foundation Establishment... Foundation Establishment Pill..."

Murong Qinglian's eyebrows couldn't help but wrinkle.

Luo Chen wouldn't give that Foundation Establishment Pill in his hand to Min Longyu, right?

But if he did that, wouldn't it be a violation of his original promise?

Everything must be based on first-come, first-served, or fair rewards and punishments.

If he did this, it might damage Luo Chen's prestige in the hearts of the high-level cultivators in the society.

"No!"

"What am I thinking."

"He is the President; who he gives it to depends on his mood. No matter how much I think, it's just worrying about nothing."

Shaking her head, Murong Qinglian stopped thinking about this matter.

But in her heart, she had made up her mind.

Cultivate to the peak of Qi Refining as soon as possible, so that she could request to use that Foundation Establishment Pill.

As for the one the Qin family originally had, she never thought about it.

That was prepared for her husband, Qin Liangchen!

Min Longyu joined the Luo Tian Society!

This news quickly spread among the Luo Tian Society cultivators.

As soon as he joined, he wandered around the flying boat all day, taking a few late-stage Tool Hall cultivators to start repairing the formations.

He even paid out of his own pocket, preparing to rebuild a set of Qinglan Formations for the Sky Eagle flying boat.

This formation belonged to a defensive formation, which could form a wind barrier with the original Wind-Riding Formation.

The defensive performance was even better than the original defensive formation.

Low-level cultivators were naturally happy to see this.

The better the flying boat's defense, the more guaranteed their safety would be.

At least, there wouldn't be a situation where they were blasted down to the Gaoling Plain by a Foundation Establishment strike.

However, for the group of ninth-level Qi Refining experts in the Luo Tian Society, it wasn't so good.

Threat!

Min Longyu just joined, and he was so proactive.

Is it because he loves this gang composed of rogue cultivators?

It's obviously not!

What he is doing is to please Luo Chen.

It is for that Foundation Establishment Pill!

Because he has already reached the peak of Qi Refining and desperately needs a Foundation Establishment spiritual pill.

How can this be!

That Foundation Establishment Pill had long been promised to them by Luo Chen, but they hadn't cultivated to the peak of Qi Refining yet.

It's not that everyone would trust Luo Chen 100% like Murong Qinglian.

Besides respecting and worshiping Luo Chen, everyone must have their own selfishness.

This has nothing to do with whether one's personality is noble or not, but is caused by the self-interested nature of humans since birth.

Under these circumstances.

The group of ninth-level Qi Refining experts in the Luo Tian Society had hidden hostility toward Min Longyu.

Luo Chen in the quiet room naturally didn't know about these things.

Even if he knew, he would just smile it off.

He had already made it clear to Min Longyu about that Foundation Establishment Pill.

If this matter were spread out, the small actions below would naturally subside.

But it's not necessary!

With this fragrant bait, it can not only give the people below a sense of competition but also promote their hard cultivation.

The experts of the Luo Tian Society are still too few!

If a few more Foundation Establishment cultivators could be produced.

Then many things wouldn't need him to worry so much.

Like the two Foundation Establishment cultivators Li Yixian and Nangong Jin, he wouldn't have to try his best to win them over.

Leaving Gaoling Plain, five days passed in a flash.

In the quiet room.

Luo Chen's eyes widened, and the Spirit Eye Technique was also exerted to the maximum.

He stared fixedly at the storage bag in front of him, his released spiritual sense like a weaver's shuttle, repeatedly probing.

Suddenly!

Luo Chen's heart moved, and a wisp of spiritual sense drilled into the storage bag.

From inside to outside, the restrictions disintegrated inch by inch!

"Finally unlocked the spiritual sense restriction of this old thing Duan Qiankun."

Luo Chen rubbed his eyebrows, although he was a bit tired, his heart was full of comfort.

He had obtained this thing six or seven years ago.

After reaching Foundation Establishment, he spent three and a half years wearing down the restrictions whenever he had time.

Now it was barely unlocked.

He wasn't in a hurry to check the things inside.

Luo Chen instead calmed his heart, manipulated his released spiritual sense, and landed it on his own storage bag.

Assisted by the input of spiritual power.

Soon, a miniature restriction was born.

Seeing this, Luo Chen couldn't help but grin and laugh.

"It's hard to say what's in the storage bag."

"But to unlock this storage bag, I have become familiar with some basic restriction techniques, and my application of spiritual sense has become more and more proficient."

"At this moment, if I want to study the formation path, I'm afraid I can easily get started."

Luo Chen smiled.

This was as it should be!

He already had a strong soul foundation and had read the basic introduction to spiritual sense obtained by Gao Tingyuan from the Soul-Refining Scatterer.

Later, in order to study the Fireball Technique, he learned a part of the basic knowledge of the talisman path.

Plus he had Duan Qiankun as a "teacher".

After three years, having such gains was only natural.

However, this was only the beginning.

If he wanted to be proficient in this path, there were thousands of large and small restrictions, and if he wanted to build them into a formation, it would require persistent research.

His ambition was not here.

"Let me see what good things you, the head of the Duan family, left behind in your storage bag!"
