Chapter 830

Although he and ancestor Rong Shao both knew that this was a big gamble.

But if they turned around and targeted Zhao Xing, they were afraid that if Zhao Xing's family came to retaliate, they would lose everything.

Targeting Huo Rong, because he was cooperating with the Tongtian Sect in secret, even if he died here, there would be no big risk.

Lord Rong Shao looked at Zhao Xing, who was still calm, and asked with a smile: "Young Master Zhao, you weren't startled, were you?"

"No." Zhao Xing shook his head slightly: "I will pay the remaining balance to the Lord as soon as possible."

"No need to rush, shall we sit down and have another drink?"

After thinking about it, Zhao Xing said softly: "Thank you for your kindness, Lord Rong Shao, I happen to have something to say."

"Then please sit."

Hearing Zhao Xing's words, Rong Shao and Gong Jian's eyes lit up.

The reason they chose to take action was to win over Zhao Xing to obtain a more powerful backing.

I didn't expect that just after solving one thing, the next one followed.

Rong Shao took a sip of wine and asked with a smile: "Then may I ask Young Master Zhao, what commission do you have, just say it."

"Very simple, please help me find a quiet place for seclusion. I will pay you one hundred thousand energy stones a month."

Hearing this, Lord

"Hmm." Zhao Xing did not intend to hide this matter either, and responded in a soft voice.

"That is naturally no problem; our Tongtian Gang welcomes you very much."

After seeing Zhao Xing nod in agreement, Sovereign Rong Shao felt his evaluation of Zhao Xing rise another level, viewing him as a rare talent.

Although he knew Zhao Xing was currently only a King-rank Lord, he couldn't ignore how young the other party was; looking at him, he couldn't be more than twenty years old.

Regardless, they now had one more backer among the human race, and this point alone made them very happy.

Because having more backers meant more prospects for their livelihood, and it just so happened that he had recently been working hard to break through to the True God rank.

However, breaking through to the True God rank is extremely difficult; besides needing an extremely powerful comprehension ability to penetrate the artistic conception of the True God realm, one also needs to cultivate any one power of the Laws to Great Perfection.

Beyond these, one must also survive the tribulation when breaking through to the True God rank, needing to withstand the lightning baptism of the True God rank to succeed.

And this kind of True God rank tribulation is extremely dangerous; eighty percent of Lords do not survive it, leading to the fall of quite a few peak God-rank powerhouses.

Therefore, he was not yet confident in breaking through to the True God rank; if he could earn more resources through human backers, then accumulating them would be of great benefit to his breakthrough.

Especially with a young master from a hidden family like Zhao Xing before him, perhaps when there is a task to entrust to him in the future, he could have him help him find some rare heavenly treasures.

That would be like a pie falling from the sky for him, so his attitude toward Zhao Xing was now very amiable.

"Haha, Young Master Zhao, mentioning money is vulgar. It's just a place for secluded cultivation; you may stay as you please, and the money is waived."

After speaking.

Sovereign Rong Shao shifted his gaze to Gong Jian: "You arrange it in a while; clear out one of the Tier 1 secluded cultivation grounds in the forest for Young Master Zhao Xing to use."

"What?"

Hearing Sovereign Rong Shao's words, Gong Jian was stunned.

If he hadn't misheard, the Old Ancestor had just said 'Tier 1 secluded cultivation ground.'

Due to the terrain of the Tongtian Gang, there were many holy lands for cultivation here, and some places were areas with abundant energy.

But such places were not naturally so; they were built by the Tongtian Gang at the cost of great energy and wealth.

Generally, only geniuses of the Demon race were qualified to step into such places.

Moreover, there were currently only three such places, and only one person could exist within each, because geniuses like these naturally did not wish to be disturbed during secluded cultivation.

Even he, the leading big brother of the Tongtian Gang, had only stepped in once, and that was limited to three days.

For someone like Zhao Xing to be promised that he could stay as long as he wanted, one could see how precious this Tier 1 secluded cultivation ground was.

It was because of this that he was surprised.

But currently, these three rooms were not empty; they were all occupied.

Gong Jian said with a difficult expression: "But... but all three young masters of the Demon race are currently staying inside."

Hearing him say this, Zhao Xing waved his hand: "It doesn't matter. If it is inconvenient for Sovereign Rong Shao, we can change to another place."

Rong Shao looked at Zhao Xing with a serious expression: "Young Master Zhao, you may not understand me yet. My word is like spilled water; I will never go back on it!"

After a moment of silence, he said: "Let Rong Xu come out, and just say it is my order!"

"Yes, I will go arrange it now."

Gong Jian cupped his hands, and in a flash, his figure disappeared.

Seeing this, Zhao Xing knew that the other party wanted to win him over, or if that failed, treat it as a favor.

But he happened to want to achieve this goal, and Sovereign Rong Shao's words were like someone sending a pillow when he was sleepy, making him very satisfied.

Zhao Xing's thoughts turned rapidly, and then he looked at Rong Shao: "Sovereign, money is money, and business is business; this must be kept clear."

Seeing Zhao Xing speak so clearly, Rong Shao's favor for him increased by another point: "Haha, Young Master Zhao, don't decline this; these are all small matters."

"If you put it that way, then I will trouble Sovereign Rong Shao."

"Haha, easy!" Sovereign Rong Shao laughed heartily and said: "There will certainly be many opportunities for us to deal with each other in the future."

"Hmm, then Sovereign, don't keep calling me Young Master Zhao; you can just call me by my code name, King Prince Hong Xing."

"Oh? King Prince Hong Xing." Rong Shao's eyes flashed upon hearing this title, and he praised: "A good name!"

"Sovereign, you flatter me."

"Then King Prince Hong Xing, do you have any other plans for now?"

Zhao Xing pondered for a few seconds and said: "I plan to go into secluded cultivation first. When I have needs, I will inform the Sovereign, and at that time, I will inevitably need the Sovereign to step in."

After speaking, Zhao Xing drank the wine in front of him in one gulp, stood up, and said: "Thank you for the Sovereign's hospitality. Now that the wine is finished, I will take my leave."

"Good, I look forward to the next meeting with King Prince Hong Xing. Once Gong Jian finishes the arrangements, I will tell him to notify you."

"Thank you." Zhao Xing cupped his hands and walked toward the outside of the secret chamber.

Meanwhile.

In a forest that looked completely unremarkable near the central edge area of the Tongtian Gang.

A giant ape with a cultivation level reaching the Venerable realm was chasing a peak King-level Lord.

Looking at the giant ape in hot pursuit behind him, he cursed: "Damn my luck, I got entangled with this violent ape just for picking a spirit fruit!"

This person looked very disheveled now; the clothes on his body were tattered, and deep wounds exposing bone were visible in many places on his body.

As he spoke, he suddenly accelerated, and in a flash, he appeared several hundred meters away.

"Sigh... it seems I still have to rely on the self-defense mechanism of that Tier 1 secret realm to kill this beast!"

Chapter 272: Hidden Secluded Cultivation Ground, Golden Prayer Mat!

"Otherwise, I will fall here today."

To be honest, this person was very panicked now.

He was a member of the Tongtian Gang, and because he lacked cultivation supplies recently, he wanted to go out to pick a spirit fruit.

He also knew that besides the Demon race living in the depths of the Tongtian Forest, there was actually another force.

That was the mindless exotic beasts. Although these exotic beasts had pitifully low intelligence, their own strength was incomparably powerful!

He usually approached and stole with caution, but he didn't expect that after eating just one, he would be discovered by this violent giant ape.

"Damn it, why haven't I arrived yet!"

Looking at the forest ahead with towering ancient trees that all looked the same.

A look of anxiety appeared in his eyes.

If he didn't find the location for secluded cultivation quickly to use it to counter the violent giant ape, his life would definitely be lost.

It wasn't until he leaped another few thousand meters that he noticed the terrain ahead had changed.

In his eyes, the ancient trees ahead seemed chaotic, but if one looked carefully, one would realize they seemed to be placed in a specific order.

And in the center of the ancient trees was a quiet area; although covered by grass, there wasn't the slightest sound of birds or insects.

Observing this scene, a look of wild joy appeared in his heart.

"This time, I'll make sure you die without a burial place!"

After speaking, his figure flashed as he approached this place.

The violent giant ape behind did not notice the danger at all and was still chasing with a violent expression.

Just as the Tongtian Gang member approached this area, his figure shifted diagonally, and he bypassed the place sideways.

But the violent ape was already too late to react and plunged straight in.
