Chapter 235

"Just a small amount of spirit stones, and I will take care of them for you!"

The pure and kind Luo Chen.

After hearing these blunt words that did not hide his killing intent at all.

His little heart received a great shock.

Are the people in Tianlan Xiancheng all this unrestrained?

He couldn't help but ask: "Fellow Daoist, do you have a grudge against them?"

Facing Chu Kui blinked, "No grievances in the past, no grudges today."

"Then you..."

"Sigh! Isn't this just helping others in their time of need and meeting their needs? Fellow Daoist Luo, don't you have needs in this regard?"

Facing Chu Kui patted his broad chest and said confidently:

"Leave this matter to me, you can be worry-free!"

Luo Chen shook his head.

He was still far from the point of clashing with those two forces.

In fact, thanks to Sima Hui Niang's efforts, the relationship between the Geng family and the Luo Tian Society had gradually eased.

The other party would move into Biyou Valley again before long.

As for the Divine Work Sect, it was nothing more than a matter of losing a little face.

If one were to resort to force for this,

then cultivators might as well stop cultivating and just bombard each other with magic tools with red faces and thick necks every day.

Of course, the necessary precautions must still be taken.

The current Luo Tian Society is in a situation of waiting to be revived and recuperating.

As long as they can get through this recent period, the Luo Tian Society can truly take root in Tianlan Xiancheng.

Start a war lightly?

Extremely unwise!

Seeing Luo Chen shake his head, Facing Chu Kui could not help but be extremely disappointed.

That disappointed expression fell into Luo Chen's eyes.

He couldn't help but ask curiously: "Since Fellow Daoist is so... righteous! Surely there are many people in Tianlan Xiancheng who need your help! Why, out of all of them, did you seek out my Luo Tian Society?"

Facing Chu Kui said as a matter of course: "That's naturally because I feel that you can afford the price for me to take action!"

Luo Chen's gaze flashed.

Facing Chu Kui smiled and filled the two cups with Taibai Wine again.

"It's not that I deliberately inquired, but the wealth of you, Fellow Daoist, is definitely not as poor and shabby as others think."

"Oh? How can you tell?"

Facing Chu Kui pointed at his feet, then pointed at the mountainside above.

"When you first came to Tianlan, you rented a second-tier cave dwelling, and even found Ice Fortress cultivators to reserve a high-grade second-tier cave dwelling. This is not the style that a poor, shabby cultivator from out of town could have."

"Perhaps some people will think you are putting on airs."

"But I don't think so! After all, being able to rent Danxia Peak for ten years on a whim, you must be quite wealthy in your hands."

Luo Chen nodded in understanding.

He knew that his series of actions since arriving in Tianlan Xiancheng were not secret.

As long as one was slightly intentional about inquiring, one could learn a thing or two.

This goes against the personal principle of not revealing one's wealth.

But he was not alone; he had a force under his command, and he had also demonstrated extraordinary strength.

Only in this way, having both money and strength, would he and the Luo Tian Society have fewer obstacles in their initial development.

Managing a force and being a lone rogue cultivator are completely different philosophies.

The latter is extremely cautious, with survival as the priority.

The former, however, is best played openly and boldly, with interests as the priority.

Only by showing sufficient strength can one gain the respect of others.

What Luo Chen didn't understand was, "Since you have no grudges or grievances with the Divine Work Sect, why not seek them out? And then, turn around and deal with my Luo Tian Society?"

"Pfft!"

Facing Chu Kui sneered.

"That group of poor ghosts can't afford the price for me to take action."

Luo Chen became interested.

He asked with a smile: "I wonder what is your standard fee for taking action, Fellow Daoist?"

"That's simple!"

Facing Chu Kui's eyes bloomed with "gold" light.

"Like dealing with a force composed of early-stage Foundation Establishment cultivators like the Divine Work Sect, one hundred thousand! As long as there are one hundred thousand spirit stones, I can take action once on your behalf."

"If you want to deal with mid-stage Foundation Establishment, two hundred thousand!"

"I also take orders for late-stage cultivators. However, the specific price must be discussed specifically. For example, whether the other party has any powerful magic treasures, whether they have any major background behind them, and so on."

"In a word, as long as the spirit stones are in place, any enemy will definitely be smashed to pieces!"

Luo Chen listened, dumbfounded.

Is the business of taking orders to kill divided so finely?

And!

Is this price a bit outrageous?

One hundred thousand, two hundred thousand, how many years would it take for ordinary Foundation Establishment cultivators without powerful life skills to save that up!

After drinking a cup of wine and swallowing a mouthful of saliva.

Luo Chen put down his wine cup, "I wonder what you do for a living usually, Fellow Daoist?"

Facing Chu Kui sighed and said gloomily: "What else can I do for a living? I have no special skills, only some slight gains in the way of fighting. Therefore, usually, I rely on the rewards from the Dao Discussion Platform, act as a consultant for a few small cultivation families, and occasionally take some commission orders to make a living!"

"Sigh, it's all blood and sweat money!"

Luo Chen nodded in agreement.

Yes, it is blood and sweat money.

You sweat, others bleed.

Facing Chu Kui could also see that Luo Chen was not the type of person who only thought about fighting and killing.

This business deal today was definitely not going to happen.

However, since he had already treated someone to second-tier spirit wine, he definitely still had to establish a good relationship.

"Developing a force is different from us rogue cultivators; there are really too many aspects involved."

"You will always encounter some things in the future."

"I hope that when the time comes, you will definitely remember me, Fellow Daoist."

"Still the same words, spirit stones in place, everything smashed to pieces!"

Luo Chen naturally agreed.

Being able to get to know such an existence who could be called a top expert even in the Foundation Establishment stage would definitely be of great benefit to him.

Moreover, the other party didn't want anything else, only spirit stones.

Problems that can be solved by spirit stones are not problems.

As long as the elixir business gets on the right track, Luo Chen will soon not be short of spirit stones.

Just as Luo Chen was about to say something more, he saw Facing Chu Kui turn his head and look somewhere.

Luo Chen felt something in his heart and looked over at the same time.

The next moment.

The clouds and mist dispersed suddenly, and water vapor permeated.

A sharp, new momentum suddenly spread from below the mountainside.

In his ears came Facing Chu Kui's exclamation.

"Which lucky person is this, advancing to Foundation Establishment and becoming a fellow daoist of our generation?"

Luo Chen stood up abruptly.

"Sorry, today's small drink ends here."

Facing Chu Kui raised his eyebrows, and immediately realized something.

"Then we shall meet again when fate allows."

"Definitely, I will be the host and treat you then!"

Cupping his hands, Facing Chu Kui took another look at the cave dwelling where the momentum was rising, summoned a white cloud, and left Luo Chen's cave dwelling.

After he left.

Luo Chen looked with some anticipation at the cave dwelling in the cliff that was recessed opposite and slightly below.

It's Duan Feng!

Just a moment ago, the other party clearly emitted the momentum of the Foundation Establishment stage.

This means that it has reached the final moment of breaking through the realm.

At this time, it is most taboo to be disturbed by others.

But unfortunately, there are countless cultivators on Tianlan Peak.

Facing Chu Kui is a late-stage Foundation Establishment cultivator and noticed it immediately.

Luo Chen's spiritual soul foundation is very strong, and coupled with the close distance, he also felt it very quickly.

Nowadays, as the momentum permeated, more and more people discovered the scene of Duan Feng undergoing Foundation Establishment.

Streams of spiritual sense spread out unscrupulously.

Trying to find the specific location.

Luo Chen frowned and said without looking back.

"Xiao Ling, guard the cave dwelling well!"

Then, he leaped out and landed outside Duan Feng's cave dwelling in the blink of an eye.

He did not hide at all, spreading out his Foundation Establishment spiritual power fluctuations, which he had cultivated to be perfectly rounded.

A pair of sharp eyes scanned in all directions.

"Everyone, there is nothing to see."

"The Xiancheng has an order that no one is allowed to disturb the cultivation of any cultivator on Tianlan Peak."

"Go back!"

In his public spiritual sense transmission, those streams of spiritual sense that were chasing over paused slightly for a while before each was withdrawn.

Just as Luo Chen said.

Fighting is also prohibited on Tianlan Peak.

If anyone violates the ban, no matter which of the seven sects of Tianlan Xiancheng is on duty, they will be severely punished without mercy.

They were just curious.

There is no need to invite trouble because of curiosity.

Feeling that all the spiritual sense had retreated like a tide, Luo Chen could not help but breathe a sigh of relief.

Even though his spiritual soul foundation was strong.

But under the gaze of so many spiritual senses, he also felt great pressure.

Among them, there was no lack of mid-stage, or even late-stage Foundation Establishment experts!

Turning around.

Luo Chen stared at Duan Feng's cave dwelling, resisting the urge to go in and take a look.

During a breakthrough, it is very taboo to be disturbed by others.

Even when he was undergoing Foundation Establishment back then, Nangong Jin tried to find him, but was personally stopped by Wang Yuan.

Now, times have changed.

It is his turn to protect Duan Feng.

"It should be soon!"

Muttering, Luo Chen set up another defensive array outside the cave dwelling, just in case.

Three days later!

A long whistle suddenly exploded, then was released and retracted, with no further echo.

In Duan Feng's cave dwelling.

Two figures sat opposite each other.

Looking at Duan Feng opposite him, whose aura was sharp and whose spiritual power fluctuations were like a tide, appearing and receding from time to time.

Luo Chen smiled with relief.

"Congratulations, Fellow Daoist Duan!"

Duan Feng originally wanted to put on a full show and give Luo Chen a deeply emotional "Fellow Daoist".

As a result, the other party's "Little Duan" almost made him unable to hold it together.

Shaking his head, he still smiled.

"Finally Foundation Establishment!"

In his words, there was endless emotion.

It was as if these short five words told of the hardships along the way.

Luo Chen personally poured him a cup of spirit wine as a congratulation.

After the two clinked glasses, Duan Feng then said with emotion: "Foundation Establishment is actually so difficult; if you hadn't simulated it for me once before seclusion, perhaps I would have failed at the step of gathering the surging spiritual power and making it liquefy."

Luo Chen naturally knew how difficult Foundation Establishment was.

He had purely relied on his strong willpower to temper it step by step back then.

The hardships involved, although varying from person to person, are always much more difficult for those with poor aptitude.

Suddenly.

Duan Feng stood up.

"Hmm?"

In Luo Chen's surprise, the other party left the stone table and bowed deeply to him.

"Along the way, thank you for your support; Duan Feng is deeply grateful!"

Luo Chen opened his mouth, then grinned.

"You kid!"

He ultimately did not dodge.

Instead, he generously and calmly accepted this bow.

"What do you plan to do next?"

Duan Feng thought for a while and said: "The cultivation method is not a problem; I just need to cultivate the Foundation Establishment chapter of the Vast Sea Breaking Waves Technique step by step."

"In the next few years, the main focus will be on stabilizing the realm."

Luo Chen nodded; this was expected.

After he underwent Foundation Establishment back then, it also took him a full three years to completely stabilize his realm.

Now, Duan Feng's completely uncontrollable spiritual power fluctuations showed that his state was not good.

In this state, if one encounters a battle, it is the most dangerous.

Just like Huo Hu!

Clearly having just broken through to Foundation Establishment not long ago, he was in a hurry to leave the Yan Alliance and even had the audacity to seek out people to fight.

Moreover, he dared to use magic treasures in battle.

Too childish!

Combat power is never just about having a high realm or good weapons to be stronger than others.

The power one can truly master is one's own strength!

In this regard, Wang Yuan does the best.

Luo Chen now also does it perfectly.

Even though he has many killing moves, in past battles, he often uses the methods he is most confident in.

Instead of using the Lieyang Technique mindlessly just because it is strong.

Any method must be used at the right time and on the right occasion.

It's just that...

Luo Chen sighed, "Very well, then you should go into seclusion for a few years; I will let Liu Qiang and your disciples keep an eye on the Tool Hall."

He sighed because he felt the Luo Tian Society was short-handed.

However, in the face of Duan Feng stabilizing his realm, no matter how short-handed they were, they had to make way.

Unexpectedly.

Duan Feng smiled.

He shook his head: "My stabilizing the realm does not necessarily require seclusion."

"Eh?" Luo Chen was surprised.

Duan Feng laughed: "Have you forgotten the way I refined spiritual power when I was in the Qi Refining stage?"

Luo Chen twisted his eyebrows and recalled carefully.

Soon, he remembered.

In his memory, Duan Feng had refined his spiritual power step by step by hammering magic tools and forging materials during the casting process back then.

"Could it be that you can still use this trick after Foundation Establishment?"

Duan Feng nodded lightly.

"Indeed, this is a derivative method of my Duan family's casting technique, and it was also taught to me by that old... old man."

He paused, his expression somewhat unnatural, but compared to the past, he was still a bit more open-minded.

"I was able to successfully undergo Foundation Establishment thanks to your support."

"I can't repay you in other ways; the Luo Tian Society is your hard work, so I should naturally contribute."

Luo Chen said with emotion: "Actually, it's not that urgent."

"No!"

Duan Feng disagreed, "Although you might not value the Tool Hall much, I found that the Tool Hall still has great development prospects after the whole of last year."

"If managed well enough, it can also bring considerable profits to the Luo Tian Society."

"Besides, after Foundation Establishment, the demand for resources increases greatly."

"I can't just wait for you to give me elixirs after Foundation Establishment!"

The last sentence carried a playful and teasing tone.

Luo Chen couldn't help but laugh out loud.

Indeed, he is not a nanny.

If the Tool Hall can be managed, it will be the third source of wealth after the Elixir Hall and the Medicine Hall, which manages hundreds of spirit fields, in the future.

Walking on three legs is always better than one or two.

The spirit stones Duan Feng can share as the master of the Tool Hall will also increase greatly.

"By the way!"

Suddenly!

Duan Feng flipped his palm, and two round balls appeared in his hand.

The round balls were silver-white, and the silver substance on them was rolling like liquid.

Seeing the two round balls, Luo Chen's heart stirred.

"Are you sure?"

Duan Feng nodded solemnly, "Determined, these two things are indeed magic treasure embryos!"

As he spoke, his breathing became noticeably three points faster.

Not only him.

Even Luo Chen, who had been mentally prepared, couldn't help but purse his lips tightly.
