Chapter 402

Seeing that everyone at the scene was a bit afraid to speak, Chen Jinliang paused and said again: "This time, moving against Great Black Mountain, with the three Golden Core cultivators, myself, Fellow Daoist Ma, and Fellow Daoist Chu, taking action, plus everyone's help, dealing with a third-grade mid-tier Black Flame Tiger, this matter can already be said to be ten-to-one certain.

Everyone, little friends, don't be so afraid. This Black Flame Tiger also came from the north more than a hundred years ago. Besides having a good relationship with the two nearby demon kings, it has no other background. The reason for choosing to take action against it is also because I have already investigated it for a long time and thought about it carefully.

This Black Flame Tiger has a very cruel personality. During the last demon beast turmoil, it besieged Iron Immortal Valley, not only killing several nearby cultivation families but also almost using tricks to injure Fellow Daoist Ma. Just a few years ago, it also commanded the demon beasts below to raid the Liuyun Mountain Market and killed many cultivators and mortals. Now it has become a serious threat to the north of our Wei State. If we can take action in advance to remove this hidden danger this time, the pressure on our Wei State during the next Northern Frontier demon beast turmoil will also be smaller."

Hearing this, Song Qingming also felt some of Chen Jinliang's painstaking efforts. This Old Ancestor Chen's lifespan has exceeded five hundred years. Although he can hold on for a few more decades, I am afraid that even if he has not passed away by the next demon beast turmoil, it will be difficult for him to take action.

If we can really unite Iron Immortal Valley and the Carefree Sect this time to kill the Black Flame Tiger, which is the biggest threat nearby, in advance, the pressure on Mount Tuoyun and Iron Immortal Valley will be much smaller during the next demon beast turmoil. Even if he himself cannot take action, relying on the mountain-protecting array, the cultivators on Mount Tuoyun have a great hope of being able to hold this spiritual mountain.

After hearing Old Ancestor Chen's analysis, which was full of confidence, the many cultivators present knew that this Black Flame Tiger did not have much background, so they slowly let go of their hearts and began to think about whether to participate in this Mount Tuoyun action.

"Dare I ask Old Ancestor Chen, after hunting the demon king, what if the number of Jade Dust Pills refined is not enough? How should they be distributed?" An old man, tall and fat, raised his head and asked again.

This old man is named Old Daoist Xue. He is of rogue cultivator origin and looks very ordinary, but he has cultivated a set of poison techniques and has quite powerful combat strength. He is also one of the top three of this Sword Discussion Assembly, and his personal fame is not below Lin Yutian and Fairy Qiudie.

Old Daoist Xue is not afraid of what dangers he will encounter in hunting the demon king. Cultivators like him who are of rogue cultivator origin and can cultivate to the peak of Foundation Establishment are almost all people who often go to take risks to obtain cultivation resources. Compared to the dangers that might be encountered in the action, Old Daoist Xue cares more about whether the Jade Dust Pill can be successfully obtained by him afterward.

After all, hunting one demon king can only refine one furnace of elixirs. Even for a high-grade alchemist like Old Ancestor Chen, the success rate of refining this kind of third-grade elixir is generally not very high. Being able to have fifty or sixty percent is already very good, and it is highly probable that it will not be enough for the ten cultivators present to share.

After hearing Old Daoist Xue's question, Chu Fengping, who had been standing on the side and had not spoken, suddenly walked up with a smile and said: "Everyone, little friends, please rest assured. We three have already discussed this matter. No matter how many Jade Dust Pills Fellow Daoist Chen can refine by then, we will find a way to make up for the difference for everyone. This time, hunting the Black Flame Tiger demon king is not just a matter for Mount Tuoyun alone. Everyone can rest assured about this matter."

Hearing Chu Fengping say this, Old Daoist Xue nodded with satisfaction and agreed on the spot to participate in this action. With this Golden Core Elder of the Carefree Sect guaranteeing it, everyone also let go of their hearts one after another.

Although these people are all late Foundation Establishment cultivators with extraordinary strength, the risk of confronting a Golden Core demon king is naturally still very high. One carelessness could very likely lead to death and dissipation.

But facing the temptation of a Jade Dust Pill that is helpful for forming a core, such a huge temptation makes it very difficult for these cultivators who are about to face the problem of forming a core to refuse. Chen Jinliang and the others probably also calculated this point, which is why they were willing to take out the Jade Dust Pill.

You must know that although this Jade Dust Pill does not have much help for a cultivator forming a core, only increasing the probability of forming a core by about half a percent, it is also a very rare third-grade elixir. This kind of spiritual item is basically impossible to buy in the Wei State market. The places where you can find a way to obtain it, the only one Song Qingming knows is the Good Merit Pavilion of the Carefree Sect.

The Sword Discussion Assembly that Chen Jinliang suddenly announced to hold at this Mount Tuoyun trade fair is probably partly because he wanted to screen out these cultivators with stronger strength, so as to provide a great help for their next move against Great Black Mountain.

Sure enough, the final result did not exceed Chen Jinliang's expectations. Everyone present opened their mouths and agreed to this matter. Chen Jinliang then announced the specific time to set off to crusade against Great Black Mountain, which was set for five days later.

This time, besides the three Golden Core cultivators and the ten late Foundation Establishment cultivators including Song Qingming, Mount Tuoyun also organized more than thirty Foundation Establishment cultivators to go together. However, most of these people were mid-Foundation Establishment and early Foundation Establishment cultivators, whose strength was weaker than Song Qingming and the others.

A few days later, the group of people rode the flying boats of several Golden Core Old Ancestors and soon arrived near the spiritual vein of Great Black Mountain.

Because Great Black Mountain is located deep in the Fuyun Mountain Range, if a large number of cultivators are organized to come, once the Black Flame Tiger senses that the situation is not right, it will definitely summon the other two demon kings in advance or escape directly. In order not to startle the snake, the number of cultivators brought by Mount Tuoyun this time is not large, and this battle needs to be fought quickly. Otherwise, once the low-grade demon beasts nearby all rush to support, the Black Flame Tiger will also take advantage of the chaos to escape, and then everyone's efforts will be wasted.

According to Chen Jinliang's arrangement, Chu Fengping and Ma Hongshan are responsible for containing the two nearby demon kings to prevent them from supporting Great Black Mountain. The more than thirty Foundation Establishment cultivators organized by Mount Tuoyun are led by several of Chen Jinliang's disciples to deal with other low-grade demon beasts on Great Black Mountain. The main target of this time, the Black Flame Tiger, is responsible by Chen Jinliang and the ten Foundation Establishment powerhouses including Song Qingming.

Just as Feng Deyang and others led dozens of Foundation Establishment cultivators to kill their way up Great Black Mountain, the Black Flame Tiger hiding on the mountain immediately sensed that something was wrong. This cunning demon king directly drove the low-grade demon beasts on the mountain to run around from all sides down the mountain, taking advantage of the chaos on the mountain and the dust raised all over the mountains and plains, and quietly slipped down the mountain from one side.

"Hmph! Still want to fish in troubled waters in front of me, evil beast, today is your death day!"

Chen Jinliang, hiding on the flying boat high in the sky, had been paying attention to every move on the entire Great Black Mountain. Soon, he discovered the Black Flame Tiger that had already mixed into the demon beast group and rushed down. Chen Jinliang controlled a huge black sword in his hand and killed directly toward the bottom, soon forcing the Black Flame Tiger hiding in the beast group out.

At the same time, Song Qingming and others, who had been prepared for a long time, also jumped down from above the flying boat one after another and soon surrounded the Black Flame Tiger.
