Chapter 334: Persuasion

With a "boom," the red light patterns flashed and vanished, and the token condensed again.

Xin Geng collected the token, led Wang Yu, and flew straight toward the giant city.

An hour later.

In a tall building in the outer area of Tianyang City.

Wang Yu took out all the demon mouse mummies and the fragment of the black jade pendant with the talisman stuck to it from his storage bag, placed them on a stone table before him, and at the same time told the gray-haired old man opposite him about what happened at the Tong family ruins.

The old man's aura was clearly much stronger than Xin Geng's; he was actually a Foundation Establishment mid-stage cultivator.

Xin Geng stood by, also smiling.

However, when Wang Yu mentioned the green-robed dwarf he encountered and his eerie green flames that could rapidly consume mana, the old man and Xin Geng's expressions both changed slightly.

Finally, hearing Wang Yu say he had killed the dwarf and that second-rank corpse-mouse together, their expressions became even more colorful.

"Soul-Extinguishing Demonic Flame."

"It must be this demonic technique, no mistake. This green-robed dwarf is likely the Moluo Sect elder Jiao Sanchi; only this guy practices this poisonous technique and also knows some corpse-refining arts."

"Jiao Sanchi is ruthless, but his strength is not weak, and he even had a record of killing cultivators of the same rank. I didn't expect him to fall into Junior-Wang Wang Shidi's hands; it's truly unexpected.

However, Junior-Wang Wang Shidi, can you take out his magic artifact for us to see?

It's not that I don't believe what Junior-Brother said, but the more sufficient the evidence, the faster Junior-Brother can finish this assessment.

Of course, our sect will also send other people to investigate this matter there later." The old man and Xin Geng exchanged a few words simply, and after checking the demon mouse mummies and the black jade pendant fragment, they said politely to Wang Yu.

"Of course, no problem; this is as it should be." Wang Yu heard this, patted his waist storage bag, and a stream of white light rolled out.

The stone table suddenly had a black iron shield and a pitch-black iron awl.

The old man ignored the iron shield, instead beckoning to take the iron awl into his hand. After injecting a bit of mana into it, twenty-plus spirit pattern phantoms appeared on its surface.

"Not bad, it really is Jiao Sanchi's natal magic artifact, the Heaven-Piercing Awl!" The old man nodded, his face full of smiles.

"Congratulations, Junior-Wang Wang Shidi. This Jiao Sanchi is on our Luori Sect's contribution list, so Junior-Brother can now be considered half a disciple of our sect. If you are willing to hand over this magic artifact, you can exchange it for a large amount of contribution points.

Junior-Wang Wang Shidi will definitely need contribution points to exchange for some of our sect's unique resources for cultivation in the future." Xin Geng saw this and immediately congratulated him, his gaze toward Wang Yu seeming somewhat different.

"Oh, I wonder how many contribution points this magic artifact can be exchanged for." Wang Yu was somewhat moved.

"Jiao Sanchi once abused and killed our sect's disciples, so his ranking on the contribution list is not low; it can be exchanged for about twelve thousand contribution points.

One must know that ordering a second-rank magic artifact in our sect only requires five thousand contribution points." The old man explained.

"If that's the case, then use this magic artifact to exchange for contribution points." Wang Yu heard this and said without hesitation.

"Good, then Junior-Wang Wang Shidi's assessment task is officially passed. Now take out our sect's temporary true disciple token; I will remove the restriction on it and then issue this contribution point to Junior-Brother.

In addition, according to the conditions agreed upon by your sect and our sect, exchange disciples can get five thousand contribution points for free in our sect, which I will also issue together." The old man didn't feel surprised at all and replied with a smile.

"Thank you, Senior-Brother Xu."

Wang Yu was overjoyed, collected the black iron shield, took out the Luori Sect true disciple token, and handed it over.

After the old man took the token, he took out an array disk from his body, placed the token on it, pinched an incantation with one hand, pointed at the array disk repeatedly, and after waiting for a moment, returned the true disciple token to Wang Yu.

After Wang Yu checked the inside of the token with his divine sense, a satisfied expression appeared on his face.

"Junior-Wang Wang Shidi has contribution points, so have you decided what techniques you want to learn in our sect?" Xin Geng asked at this time.

"I have long heard of the Luori Sect's Red Sun Great Technique, and I also possess a fire-attribute spirit root, so I intend to learn this technique." Wang Yu replied without much thought.

"Alas, sure enough, Junior-Brother chose this technique." Xin Geng sighed, looking as if he had expected it, and Xu Zhanglao also frowned slightly.

"Why, is there something wrong with choosing this technique for cultivation?" Wang Yu naturally could see that the two's expressions were somewhat wrong and asked with surprise.

"It's not wrong. As our sect's town-sect technique, the Red Sun Great Technique is indeed famous in the Wu Nation, but in reality, not many people in our sect learn this technique." Xu Zhanglao said slowly.

"Why is this? Is it because this technique consumes too many resources? Or is the bottleneck in the middle and later stages difficult to break through?" Wang Yu remembered what the Tianchan Ancestor had said and asked with doubt.

"It seems Junior-Wang Wang Shidi already knows a lot about the Red Sun Great Technique before coming.

Indeed, the Red Sun Great Technique consumes a lot of resources, and the bottleneck breakthrough in the middle and later stages far exceeds other Foundation Establishment techniques, but Junior-Brother probably doesn't know another thing, which is that the Red Sun Great Technique is also extremely difficult to enter, and even requires the assistance of Heaven and Earth Spiritual Flames to have hope of entering." Xu Zhanglao said slowly.

"Not bad, not to mention Heaven and Earth Spiritual Flames, our sect has a third-rank magic treasure that can temporarily provide a wisp of Heaven and Earth Spiritual Flame power to assist, but exchanging for this spiritual flame assistance requires three thousand contribution points.

Even so, there are very few people in our sect who have entered the Red Sun Great Technique, and only three of the top ten true disciples have done so." Xin Geng also continued to sigh and said.

"Not only that, exchanging for the Red Sun Great Technique formula in the Scripture Pavilion requires one thousand contribution points per level.

A few years ago, a true disciple of the Qianzhu Sect also came to our sect for exchange and chose the Luori Great Technique, but as a result, all five thousand contribution points were exhausted, and he failed to enter the technique, so he could only leave in disappointment." Xu Zhanglao showed a helpless expression.

"The Red Sun Great Technique is so difficult to enter; I really didn't know this, but I also heard that as long as resources can keep up, the cultivation speed of this technique far exceeds other Foundation Establishment techniques." Wang Yu said thoughtfully.

"Using resources to exchange for cultivation speed, the Red Sun Great Technique can indeed do it, but the difficulty of breaking through the bottleneck in the middle and later stages is also beyond imagination. For thousands of years, I don't know how many true disciples of our sect have been trapped by this technique, and even among our sect's four ancestors, only one has condensed the Golden Core by relying on the Red Sun Great Technique.

But then again, our sect's other fire-attribute techniques are also extremely powerful, especially that Illusionary Sun Great Technique, which is known as the Little Red Sun Great Technique. Once achieved, it not only possesses the power of fire-attribute techniques but also possesses the wonderful power of illusion.

Of course, if Junior-Wang Wang Shidi insists on learning the Red Sun Great Technique, it is naturally no problem; the two of us are just giving Junior-Brother some suggestions." Xin Geng persuaded from the side, but then his words turned.

"Thank you both for your advice, but since I possess a fire spirit root, not taking a look at the cultivation method of this Red Sun Great Technique is always a regret. I still intend to try it first. If it really doesn't work, I will change to other techniques." Wang Yu pondered for a moment and replied with a smile. ===== CHAPTER 335 =====
