"Master, is there no room for easing this matter? If Great Cui Peak is gone, Seven Forms Sect's finances will be in crisis... Especially since we have been mining for such a long time and just made wedding dresses for others in vain, can you really swallow this breath?"
Yuan Zhongfei's eyes fell on Ouyang Bing, and then glanced at the other heads of the hall one by one.
"So what if I can't swallow it? Senior Brother Yuan, if Crimson Whale Hall is better than Crimson Whale Hall, it will be gone. What can we Seven Forms Sect do!?"
The one who spoke was Yu Zhao, the head of Spirit Snake Courtyard.
His face didn't look good at this time, and he obviously knew how much of a blow this incident had to the Seven Forms Sect.
"What? Could it be that Zhang Songbai destroyed Crimson Whale Hall and scared everyone out of their courage? This matter is not only targeting us Seven Forms Sect, but also White Dragon Gang and Fang Family is not much better either. As long as we unite with the other two companies to negotiate with Prefecture City, it will be able to ease. After all, our ancestors had a contract certificate with Prefecture City back then."
Yuan Zhongfei showed no intention of retreating at all, and spoke in a deep voice.
When Prefectural Office drove away everyone in Yunshui Mountain, he was sitting on Great Cui Peak. After the other party revealed his intentions, he could not suppress the anger in his heart.
After seeing the other party's arrogant and sarcastic face, he became even more angry, and even had some conflicts with Silver Badge Constable who came, but in the end it ended with him being injured.
The other party only gave them a stick of incense time to withdraw from Great Cui Peak, otherwise they would be killed without mercy. In desperation, they had to lead people down the mountain and leave Yunshui Mountain Range in a hurry, without even having time to take away the many animal ores that had been mined on Great Cui Peak.
For him, the hard work of the past six months was just wasted, and no one would tolerate this.
"Senior Brother Yuan, we all understand what you are saying, but even if our three forces unite, one Zhang Songbai can overwhelm all of us, but what effect will it have!?"
Yu Zhao said somewhat helplessly.
"Divine Form Martial Artist is far beyond what we can contend with. I think you, Senior Brother Yuan, know this very well."
"Junior Brother Yu, Divine Form Martial Artist is strong, but if we keep giving in, one day we will reach the point of no return." Yuan Zhongfei snorted coldly and said in a deep voice without politeness.
"Senior Brother Yu is right. Senior Brother Yuan, although we lost Great Cui Peak's beast mine, which was indeed a big blow to the sect, Jieyuan Kailiu will always have a way to solve it. Can it not happen with Imperial Court It's better to avoid any conflicts as much as possible. I'm sure Zhang Songbai has other thoughts besides coming out for the Divine Seed this time. It's best not to give him any excuses..."
The person who spoke this time was Xie Qingyun. Although her voice was soft, it made everyone fall silent in the hall.
Yuan Zhongfei frowned nervously and opened his mouth to say something, but he still didn't speak.
Apparently he also realized what Xie Qingyun was referring to.
The reason why Wanhua City exists is because the founder of the Seven Forms Sect sect promised him a place to stay after negotiating with Prefecture City. It can be said that Wanhua City was the territory of the Seven Forms Sect many years ago.
Just like forces like Tianxiang Sword Sect and Yuanyang Beast Sect that have been passed down for many years, the original Seven Forms Sect was also the top force among Linjiang Prefecture.
It's just a pity that Divine Form Martial Artist has not appeared for many years since Seven Forms Sect founded the sect. Therefore, as time goes by, Wanhua City gradually becomes a gathering place for various forces.
Seven Forms Sect has also become one of the major forces in Wanhua City.
Although after so many years, Prefecture City has basically had a laissez-faire attitude towards Wanhua City, but now that something like Divine Seed has happened, it is impossible to say that Prefecture City will take advantage of the situation and have plans to take back Wanhua City.
Moreover, Prefecture City does not want Divine Form realm warrior to appear in Wanhua City.
Wanhua City No one has stepped into Divine Form realm for so many years. In addition to the extremely difficult breakthrough in this First Realm world, there is also Prefectural Office's handwriting behind it.
Despite this, breaking through the realm is the ultimate goal of every warrior, and who would give up trying to reach a higher realm.
Then Crimson Whale Hall master Scarlet Hair worked so hard, isn't it just to be able to break through Divine Form? In order to break through Divine Form, he even took the risk to conceal the news of Divine Seed and block the fate of the entire sect.
Yuan Zhongfei knows very well that the sect leader tried to break through Divine Form twice, but both ended in failure. It is basically certain that it has something to do with Prefecture City, otherwise the high-spirited Ouyang sect leader would not have become so timid now.
Thinking of this, he finally sighed and said no more.
The hall immediately fell into a dead silence, and almost everyone's eyes fell on the superior Ouyang Bing.
After a while, Ouyang Bing, whose figure was mostly hidden in the shadows, slowly spoke.
"Let's put this matter aside for the time being. During this period, the training resources of each academy will be halved. The rewards for the garrison mission of disciples on Great Cui Peak will remain unchanged. I will find a way to solve the financial issues. Let's let it go now..."
"Yes, Master." The heads of the seven courtyards bowed slightly and responded in unison.
After the words fell, Ouyang Bing's figure had disappeared from the upper position.
The seven people also turned and left with their own thoughts.
Wanhua City.
On the originally bustling long street, the flow of people was significantly less than half a month ago. On both sides of the originally prosperous street, a small number of shop fronts that were originally close to each other have been closed.
Obviously, the demise of the Crimson Whale Hall will have a great impact on Wanhua City all walks of life.
As one of the four major forces, its industries spread across all walks of life and were wiped out overnight. Such a result is normal.
Crimson Whale Hall The remaining people in the city were finally defeated after many wealthy businessmen and families joined forces.
Wanhua City is a bit desolate at the moment. It will not take long for Wanhua City to return to its former prosperity.
Lin Sheng made a special trip to the Myriad Beasts Hall to confirm with Yang Niu that the progress of his purchase of Spirit Beast would not be affected, and then he could continue Secluded Cultivation's practice with confidence.
Time flies like an arrow, the sun and the moon fly by, and half a month passes in the blink of an eye.
Wanhua City's situation has indeed improved a lot. Although it is not as prosperous as in the past, it is not as desolate as it was a few days ago.
It's just that there are obviously more yamen agents in black clothes on the streets, and some of the rules in the city have changed a lot, especially in terms of public security and taxes in the city, which are obviously much stricter than before.
Faced with this, Seven Forms Sect White Dragon Gang and Fang Family, the only three remaining forces in Wanhua City, had surprisingly the same attitude, and they all behaved quite silently.
Paji.
Closing the thick book in his hand, Lin Sheng picked up another old, yellowed book.
"What exactly does Clear Mind realm mean?"
He murmured softly, his eyes quickly scanning the manual in his hand.
After a cup of tea, he had already flipped through this thick ancient book. Unfortunately, there was nothing he wanted in it.
During the past half month, in addition to spending most of his time practicing at Secluded Cultivation, he spent his free time traveling to various bookstores in the city.
The purpose was to find out what the so-called Clear Mind meant. However, in the past few days, he had browsed all the bookstores in the city. Occasionally, there were some books that briefly mentioned the realm of Clear Mind, but they were only mentioned briefly without detailed descriptions.
In addition to the fifteen-point physical requirement to enter the Blazing-Eyed Flame Dragon body, you also need to reach the Clear Mind state.
Therefore, he also needs to figure out what the so-called Clear Mind realm is as soon as possible, so that he can start preparations as soon as possible.
According to the information currently available, Clear Mind is a general term for one's own mind and will to reach a certain mysterious and mysterious state.
But how he reached this situation, he didn't know.
He rummaged through the entire Wanhua City bookstore but couldn't find much useful information. It was obvious that either the Clear Mind realm itself was extremely rare and difficult to achieve, or that records in this area were deliberately restricted, or both.
"It seems we have to start from other aspects."
He closed the book in his hand Lin Sheng and shook his head slightly.
Northern Yan, Yandu Imperial Capital.
As the symbol of the highest power of Beiyan, it is also the center of the entire Beiyan Kingdom.
Judging from the scale alone, Imperial Capital is bigger than three Linjiang Prefecture cities. At this moment, Imperial Capital is in the central hall.
A thin figure wearing a nine-clawed dragon suit sat on the highest golden chair in the hall. Under the crown was a somewhat pale middle-aged face.
This person is none other than Northern Yan, the current Emperor Jing of the country.
Emperor Jing There is another figure underneath. The figure is wearing black black armor and standing in the main hall. Its figure is unusually tall for ordinary people, more than two and a half meters tall. Standing there, it is like a thick copper wall and iron wall. It does not deliberately reveal its aura, but it gives people an indescribable pressure.
It even makes people subconsciously ignore Emperor Jing sitting in the upper position.
In addition to the two people, under the main hall were a group of Imperial Court dignitaries in official uniforms.
"His Majesty, Linjiang Prefecture wrote that they found a 300,000-year-old animal mine. It is almost certain that Divine Seed exists in it. Jinzhang Zhang Songbai is sitting in it. I think I can send Divine Seed back in the near future..."
An official in Xuanyi who was standing behind took a step forward and spoke respectfully to report.
"Linjiang Prefecture, that's right, I'll give you a reward..."
After hearing the report, Emperor Jing spoke slowly, but his voice gave people a feeling of weakness and lack of energy.
Halfway through his words, his eyes fell on the figure in black black armor again, as if he was somewhat undecided about what to reward him.
The figure of Xuan Jia slowly spoke.
"Report His Majesty, Zhang Songbai has done great work in digging up Divine Seed, and can be rewarded with the dragon Blood Pool once."
"Dragon Blood Pool... Okay, cough cough cough... what King Yan said makes sense, just do what King Yan said."
Hearing Xuan Jia's words, Emperor Jing immediately said again and again, but just after he finished speaking, he started coughing violently, his pale face was bloodshot, and scarlet bloodshot streaks appeared strangely on his cheeks. It wasn't until the eunuch waiting aside hurriedly took out a pill-like elixir from his arms and carefully delivered it to him that he calmed down.
"Okay, everyone, if you have anything else to say quickly..."
Emperor Jing glanced across the hall and said feebly. However, before the ministers below could say anything, streaks of blood appeared on his newly pale cheeks again.
"That's all, if you have anything to discuss with King Yan..."
After saying that, Emperor Jing stood up in a hurry and left quickly.
The ministers in the main hall seemed to be used to this scene and did not feel anything wrong.
They all set their eyes on King Yan above and told them one by one what they were going to report.
King Yan Zhao Hongzhang, who was wearing black black armor, only listened quietly, and occasionally responded briefly, as if he didn't care about these trivial matters.
"What happened to the 500,000-year-old mineral deposit at Nanli Prefecture? Is there any response from Southern Qi?"
Zhao Hongzhang's eyes fell on a military attache wearing light armor among the hundreds of officials. The military attache with brown eyes and blond hair was obviously from the extreme south Other Tribe.
Upon hearing the question, the military attache immediately stepped out of the queue, knelt on the ground, and spoke with great respect.
"Reporting to King Yan, Southern Qi has not yet given a definite answer, but it seems that it does not intend to agree to our conditions. According to the spies' report, Southern Qi Kingdom General Tang Chong has led an army of 10,000 giant spirits to garrison the border."
"Tang Chong..."
King Yan narrowed his eyes slightly, then snorted coldly.
"It seems like Tang Chong, this old guy really won't shed tears without seeing the coffin. Then I'll go see this old guy and see how much of his ability he still has..."
His voice was cold, with a hardness that no one else could question.
None of the officials in the court responded, and they all knew in their hearts that the number one Northern Yan had murderous intentions.
At the same time, they all realized that if the negotiation between King Yan and Great General of Southern Qi Tang Chong does not go smoothly this time, the war between the two countries that has been calmed down for decades is likely to ignite.
"Clear Mind? Sheng'er, why do you suddenly ask about this?"
Among Qingniao Institute, Xie Qingyun looked a little surprised and said softly.
"This disciple accidentally saw the realm of Clear Mind in a book of Ancient Manual, but he only had a partial understanding of it. He was curious, so he asked this question."
Lin Sheng spit out the words he had prepared.
In the bookstore in the city, he didn't get the information he wanted, so he had to choose the Seven Forms Sect route.
As his master, Xie Qingyun is undoubtedly his first choice.
As a master of Bone Tempering and one of the seven leaders of the Seven Forms Sect, his knowledge and knowledge are not comparable to his.
"Is that so? Originally, this was knowledge that could only be touched after you broke through Bone Transformation realm, but now that you have mentioned it, I will tell you about this Clear Mind realm."
Xie Qingyun didn't think much about it, smiled on his face, and said.
"The so-called Clear Mind is an extension of the mind and will. This is a feeling that cannot be described but can only be understood. It is said that it is easy to break a mountain, but it is difficult to break a heart. After entering Bone Transformation realm, it can be regarded as a Bloodline for oneself. is highly developed, and although the power of Bloodline is extremely powerful, it is also quite dangerous. If one cannot suppress the beastliness brought about by the power of Bloodline, it will easily affect one's own mind."
When he said this, a solemn look appeared on Xie Qingyun's face.
"If you let your bestial nature suppress your human nature, you will become a half-human, half-beast Demonic Beast. In severe cases, Mutation may become Strange Beast."
