Chapter 818: General Outline of the
After successively obtaining the Wood Profound Meaning Crystal and the Outer Arm of the Hundred-Armed Giant, Li Zhangsheng also felt quite excited.
At this moment, Ning Bizhen finally broke the Restriction of one Yuanchen Treasure Pillar and harvested her first treasure.
Besides Ning Bizhen, Yan Wanling also broke a second Yuanchen Treasure Pillar just half a minute later.
The most miserable one was still Wen Zetao, who was still desperately persisting in dealing with his first Yuanchen Treasure Pillar; judging from the thickness of the Restriction, it was expected to take another minute or two.
As for the treasures harvested by Ning Bizhen and Yan Wanling, Li Zhangsheng did not have that much energy to pay attention to them.
Once the Demon Pets finished resting, Li Zhangsheng immediately led them to besiege the third Yuanchen Treasure Pillar.
This was also the last Yuanchen Treasure Pillar located in the north, and he did not know what kind of treasure was stored inside.
However, according to Li Zhangsheng's speculation, the Luck Incense Candle pointing it toward the north was likely related to this pile of Outer Arms of the Hundred-Armed Giant.
Even so, Li Zhangsheng was still quite expectant of the treasure stored in the third Yuanchen Treasure Pillar.
Judging from the current situation, the treasures stored in the Yuanchen Treasure Pillars were at the very least Top-tier Heaven and Earth Treasures.
The next moment, the Demon Pets launched a fierce attack again, crazily pouring countless long-range moves onto the Restriction of this Yuanchen Treasure Pillar.
After the tests of the previous two Yuanchen Treasure Pillars, Li Zhangsheng discovered that the Restrictions of these Yuanchen Treasure Pillars were completely identical, and there was no difference at all.
It was precisely because of this that the strongest Heavenly Prides could be selected as much as possible.
Under the offensive of the Demon Pets, the Restriction of the Yuanchen Treasure Pillar rippled violently, and the color of the Restriction dimmed by thirty percent in an instant.
The energy on the Restriction was also recovering rapidly, but by the time the Demon Pets launched their second round of attacks, the Restriction had only barely recovered by ten percent.
According to Li Zhangsheng's estimation, it would not take ten rounds to completely break the Restriction of the Yuanchen Treasure Pillar.
Under the efforts of the Demon Pets, the Restriction of the Yuanchen Treasure Pillar rippled even more intensely, and its thickness and luster were also gradually dimming.
Li Zhangsheng stared at the Restriction, secretly diverting most of his attention to guard against the others; if Yan Wanling or Wen Zetao made any unusual moves and wanted to snatch his or Ning Bizhen's treasures, he would immediately deliver a thunderous blow, even if it meant missing out on the treasure because of it.
It was not just Li Zhangsheng; everyone else was also staying on guard at all times.
Just as Li Zhangsheng's Demon Pets were about to break the third Yuanchen Treasure Pillar, Wen Zetao finally broke his first Yuanchen Treasure Pillar; by this time, a full seven minutes had already passed.
Judging by Wen Zetao's efficiency and the remaining time, he no longer had the strength to break the next Yuanchen Treasure Pillar.
Wen Zetao was naturally very unwilling; he could not just sit by and watch others make a fortune while he himself only obtained one treasure—he was also a Heavenly Pride, so how could he be willing in his heart?
His gaze lingered on Li Zhangsheng, Ning Bizhen, and Yan Wanling one after another, and finally fell on Li Zhangsheng.
Of course, it was impossible for Wen Zetao to be stupid enough to snatch the treasure Li Zhangsheng was about to obtain; that would be no different from lighting a lamp while using the toilet, and he did not want to miss the subsequent segments because of it.
Wen Zetao's idea was very simple: to cooperate with one of the parties; whichever party offered more chips, he would "work" for the other.
Wen Zetao's mouth moved, and using Sound Transmission, he began to communicate with Li Zhangsheng.
Li Zhangsheng was surprised at first, but he did not immediately refuse; instead, he began to discuss with Wen Zetao.
In Li Zhangsheng's view, Wen Zetao could be said to be a variable here; if he leaned toward Yan Wanling, Li Zhangsheng would also feel a headache.
If he could win over Wen Zetao or keep Wen Zetao neutral, it would be very advantageous for Li Zhangsheng; he could then join forces with Ning Bizhen to beat up Yan Wanling, and he would naturally not miss such an opportunity.
As for the cost, Li Zhangsheng carefully examined Wen Zetao's Demon Pet lineup, and upon seeing one of the Demon Pets, he made a decision in his heart, preparing to try to bribe Wen Zetao with a jar of Divine Beast Essence Blood.
Divine Beast Essence Blood was still very precious; even if it was only one jar, it still could not be measured by value.
However, Wen Zetao did not agree immediately, turning instead to start negotiating with Yan Wanling.
Wen Zetao chose to compare the two sides; whichever side had the highest chips, he would naturally choose that side. If he was lucky, he might not even have to do anything and could still take the chips from both sides—why not do it?
Seeing Wen Zetao's actions, Li Zhangsheng still silently gave him a thumbs up; although doing this might lead to both sides tacitly eliminating this unstable factor, it was more likely that he would succeed.
This was also a matter of no choice, because neither Li Zhangsheng nor Yan Wanling wanted to push Wen Zetao to the opposite side, otherwise that would be asking for trouble for themselves.
Moreover, even if Wen Zetao was the weakest of the four people present, he was ultimately a top-tier Pseudo-King; no matter if it was Li Zhangsheng or Yan Wanling, it would always take some time to defeat him.
Under these circumstances, the possibility of Wen Zetao profiting was not generally high.
Boom—
It was also at this time that a loud rumbling sound echoed, and the Demon Pets finally broke the third Yuanchen Treasure Pillar.
While letting the Demon Pets rest, Li Zhangsheng impatiently came to the front of the Yuanchen Treasure Pillar and took out the treasure inside.
This time it was an Inheritance Jade Slip made entirely of Seeking Dao Jade; he did not know what kind of content was recorded on it, but since it could be placed here, it naturally would not be an ordinary thing.
Before checking it, Li Zhangsheng brought his Demon Pets to Ning Bizhen's side; if Ning Bizhen could not break the second Yuanchen Treasure Pillar within the stipulated time, he would have to help her.
Under the protection of the Demon Pets, Li Zhangsheng diverted some of his attention to immerse himself in the Inheritance Jade Slip in his hand to check the content inside.
Upon looking, Li Zhangsheng was clearly taken aback, and then revealed a look of wild joy, unable to contain his excitement.
Originally, Li Zhangsheng thought the Luck Incense Candle was guiding him to the Outer Arms of the Hundred-Armed Giant, but in reality, it was the Inheritance Jade Slip in his hand.
The reason was none other than that this Inheritance Jade Slip recorded the General Outline of the Top-tier Demon Taming Art, the "Big Dipper Demon Taming Art"!
Of course, the General Outline did not represent the whole thing; to gather the complete "Big Dipper Demon Taming Art," one must also collect the five Demon Taming Arts: the Four Symbols Star, the Big Dipper Seven Stars, the Kill-Army-Wolf Constellation, the Seven Luminaries Star, and the Three Enclosures Twenty-Eight Mansions.
Among them, Li Zhangsheng had already collected the first four, and adding the General Outline, as long as he obtained the Three Enclosures Twenty-Eight Mansions Demon Taming Art, he could combine them into a complete "Big Dipper Demon Taming Art."
However, the Three Enclosures Twenty-Eight Mansions Demon Taming Art was different from the other four; this Demon Taming Art was also known as a Pseudo-Top-tier Demon Controlling Art, and its power was even above the other four Demon Taming Arts. The difficulty of obtaining it was not generally high, and Li Zhangsheng did not even know whose hands it was in.
If he could not find the Three Enclosures Twenty-Eight Mansions Demon Taming Art, Li Zhangsheng could only combine the other four with the General Outline to form a new Top-tier Demon Taming Art, but if he did that, there would certainly be a significant gap compared to the complete "Big Dipper Demon Taming Art."
