spoke extremely sincerely in this statement, with a tone that clearly revealed his apprehension about another type of exotic flame.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After saying this, Lin Tianming looked at the Earth Spirit Rat seriously, his attitude appearing genuinely earnest.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this point, upon hearing Lin Tianming’s words, the Earth Spirit Rat did not refute, nor did it directly agree with his statement.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the Earth Spirit Rat’s heart, it had already anticipated Lin Tianming would say such a thing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course, the Earth Spirit Rat did not know Lin Tianming’s true thoughts.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Nonetheless, regardless of how confident Lin Tianming was in suppressing the other exotic flame during the collection of the Red Flame Crystal, or if he could delay some time to secure a valuable opportunity for the Earth Spirit Rat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Such an outcome, no one would show at this time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Including Lin Tianming, he would similarly not show it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Earth Spirit Rat was actually well aware of this point.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And regarding Lin Tianming’s statement, it also knew there was no way to verify it currently.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Moreover, such verification itself had little significance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Because the most important thing currently is to quickly bring Lin Tianming into its camp, so as to successfully obtain the coveted Red Flame Crystal later on.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For this result, the Earth Spirit Rat considered some sacrifice worth it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even though the Earth Spirit Rat held the advantage in terms of strength and was the planner of the entire scheme.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But undeniably, the one needing help was the Earth Spirit Rat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And the greatest benefit would also belong to the Earth Spirit Rat’s side.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In contrast, the other party would indeed contribute to this plan and have to bear considerable risk in it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This fact was also an undeniable reality, which the Earth Spirit Rat could not change.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If it could manage that, it wouldn’t have sought Lin Tianming and his partner’s help.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Understanding this point, the Earth Spirit Rat knew that to complete the plan, it undoubtedly had to pay some price to win over Lin Tianming.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, the specifics of this cost still required negotiation with Lin Tianming.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Only by paying the price and satisfying Lin Tianming could this plan move into a new stage.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Otherwise, even the most perfect plan would fail due to the exotic flame, resulting in the plan completely failing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Knowing this point well, the Earth Spirit Rat likewise looked at Lin Tianming opposite it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Next, the Earth Spirit Rat directly asked: “Junior, in order to achieve cooperation, just say what you want.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“As long as this sovereign can afford it, and the cost is reasonable, this sovereign will not refuse.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Rest assured on this point!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“This sovereign has approached you with some psychological preparation already.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Otherwise, given this sovereign’s current strength, it could not force anyone to do something unreasonable.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Earth Spirit Rat spoke these words clearly, revealing its resolve in every sentence.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At the same time, each word was not meant to pressure Lin Tianming, yet every word contained a hint of threat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Using such a retreating approach to advance, given Lin Tianming’s wisdom, there’s no way he would not notice.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Nevertheless, however, in this psychological game, Lin Tianming was already mentally prepared, knowing the Earth Spirit Rat’s likely actions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Beyond this, the Earth Spirit Rat, after all, is a Fourth Order Demonic Beast and has been in this rank for many years.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Based on this, as the initiator and decision-maker of the plan, the Earth Spirit Rat naturally utilized its advantage to invisibly create pressure on Lin Tianming.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Doing so seemed to achieve its initial goal at the lowest cost.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thus, knowing how the Earth Spirit Rat operates and what attitude it would use regarding the negotiations, Lin Tianming certainly wouldn’t let the Earth Spirit Rat lead him around.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At least, when it comes to vying for his own interests, Lin Tianming certainly wouldn’t easily compromise.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This aspect had occurred once before in cooperation with the Dragon Turtle.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So at this moment, Lin Tianming wouldn’t retreat actively under the pressure from the Earth Spirit Rat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even if the Earth Spirit Rat’s strength surpasses the Ink Jiao, capable of posing a considerable threat to him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But Lin Tianming also had great confidence in his and Qin Xi’s strength.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, not long ago, the two of them, as husband and wife, joined forces to annihilate a Fourth Order peak stage Demonic Beast, which was the Ink Jiao that had pursued Qin Xi.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In that battle, they did not use their full strength and did not pay much of a price, merely consuming some True Essence Mana.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>From this point of view, the couple has the capital to stand against most Fourth Order Demonic Beasts.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thus, although the Earth Spirit Rat’s strength clearly surpasses the Ink Jiao.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Nonetheless, Lin Tianming was confident that he could engage the Earth Spirit Rat directly for a while.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At worst, even if the couple can’t defeat the Earth Spirit Rat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, if they are determined to leave, presumably, the Earth Spirit Rat would not be able to hold them back.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And these reasons formed Lin Tianming’s confidence.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Therefore, now although they lag a level behind the Earth Spirit Rat in terms of realm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But in terms of real strength, both sides are equal.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Speaking this way, the conditions are absolutely equal, with neither side having an overwhelming advantage.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With such confidence, Lin Tianming wouldn’t foolishly choose to retreat, risking unnecessary loss of his own interests.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Having thought this through, Lin Tianming smiled calmly, displaying a breezy demeanor, seemingly indifferent to the covert threat from the Earth Spirit Rat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And such a reaction from Lin Tianming was unexpected for the Earth Spirit Rat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet presently, Lin Tianming was straightforward, leaving the Earth Spirit Rat somewhat bewildered, unable to gauge Lin Tianming’s actual intentions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Meanwhile, Lin Tianming’s exhibited attitude often left the Earth Spirit Rat feeling somewhat powerless.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No choice, as it was the one in need of assistance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In addition to that, although Lin Tianming and Qin Xi appeared to have only achieved the Golden Core Stage realm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Due to the Earth Spirit Rat’s remarkable perception, it could naturally sense a significant threat from them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And such underlying threat, the Earth Spirit Rat rarely sensed clearly when facing other Demonic Beasts of the same tier.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>From this perspective, Lin Tianming and Qin Xi’s firm stance might genuinely have such confidence.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Otherwise, these Human Cultivators definitely wouldn’t dare to be so reckless and wouldn’t dare to demonstrate such directness.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Such a response indeed forced the Earth Spirit Rat to re-evaluate the opponent’s situation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Meanwhile, to achieve its objectives, the Earth Spirit Rat had to lower its elevated stance, avoiding forfeiting the Red Flame Crystal—an immensely desired Heaven and Earth Treasure due to a minor interest.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Considering this, the Earth Spirit Rat took the initiative to break the silence while Lin Tianming remained silent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Junior, feel free to articulate your demands!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I, as a dignified Fourth Order entity, disdain taking advantage of you!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Under the Earth Spirit Rat’s urging, Lin Tianming didn’t maintain silence.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Because he could see that this time, the Earth Spirit Rat genuinely planned to yield, willing to reach equal terms with them for the plan’s fruition.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was the very scenario Lin Tianming aimed to see.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now that the other party clearly intended to concede, Lin Tianming had no reason to reject such goodwill.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With that settled, dealing with the subsequent matters became straightforward.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Therefore, following this, Lin Tianming also spoke up directly, explicitly expressing the conditions he wanted.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>According to him, once the plan proceeds smoothly, then of the Red Flame Crystals obtained, the Earth Spirit Rat should allocate forty percent to him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Upon hearing this condition, the Earth Spirit Rat immediately refused.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To which the Earth Spirit Rat helplessly explained the reason.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Because in the Earth Spirit Rat’s eyes, Red Flame Crystals are not like ordinary treasures that are easily encountered and won’t be easily obtained.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>…\u003C\u002Fp>",1336,"2026-06-06T11:29:22.885Z",1,"novelbin.me","7036b4479060eade71152f65121ee72814388cd5065146f510d7af2ea278d538","top-level-qi-luck-leading-my-clan-to-cultivate-chapter-1941","top-level-qi-luck-leading-my-clan-to-cultivate-chapter-1939",2241,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Ftop-level-qi-luck-leading-my-clan-to-cultivate-cover.jpg"]
