At nightfall.
The moonlight is like a veil.
In the yard, Lin Sheng was holding a carving knife in his hand, and he was absorbed in carving the half-finished wood carving in his hand.
I don't know how long it took, it could be an hour, or it could be longer, but the wood carving in my hand was finally finished. It was an eagle beast fluttering its wings toward the sky, it was Green-eyed Fierce Eagle.
The woodcut is lifelike, just like the fierce Strange Beast in memory, and even has an inexplicable charm about it.
Lin Sheng put the wood carving in his hand on the stone table aside and spoke calmly.
"It's been a long time, come out."
Bang bang bang...
Crisp applause came from the wall in a corner of the house.
"I didn't expect Brother Lin to be so elegant."
As the breeze blew by, a tall figure appeared in the courtyard.
The figure was dressed in plain clothes and carrying a long object on his back. It was Black List number one Wanyan Bei.
At this time, Wanyan Bei's eyes were flashing and he was looking at Lin Sheng who was sitting at the stone table with great interest.
"As the number one Black List, your reward is not a small sum even if it is just for providing information. Aren't you afraid that I will report you to Imperial Court just by showing up here?"
The carving knife flipped flexibly in the hand, reflecting a bit of cold light under the moonlight.
"That's true, but I don't believe Brother Lin is such a person, otherwise he wouldn't have killed the two Prefectural Office patrol officers so brazenly."
Wanyan Bei said with a smile. After speaking, he walked to the other side of the stone table and sat opposite Lin Sheng.
"Brother Lin's demeanor was even better when I saw him in the county. Originally, I was still thinking about which force could cultivate a genius like Brother Lin, but I didn't expect it to be Seven Forms Sect."
Although he had never fought against Wanyan Bei from outside the county, he was quite interested in Lin Sheng. After all, he was just early stage of Blood Circulation and could easily win over Pei Er.
He knows Pei Er's strength very well. He can hang on Black List, and he is definitely the best among Blood Circulation realm.
And according to Pei Er, he didn't even have a chance to escape in front of the person in front of him.
And he seems to have mastered some kind of spiritual attack method, which is even more rare.
If it weren't for Liu Tianci following him too closely, he might not have had more contact with him.
In his opinion, even though this boy is not as good as Liu Tianci and Nangong Lengshui, he is not inferior by much. He is indeed a person worth cultivating.
So after he left the county seat, he arranged for his men to go to the county seat to investigate his whereabouts, but they failed. However, he did not give up. Instead, he arranged for people to search in Prefecture City.
After all, such a genius will never be an unknown person.
He just didn't expect to find traces of him in Wanhua City, especially since he was a disciple of the Seven Forms Sect, which made him quite surprised.
He also knows a little about the Seven Forms Sect. It was indeed quite tyrannical hundreds of thousands of years ago, but now there is really nothing outstanding about it.
Regarding Wanyan Bei, Lin Sheng had no reaction. He just picked up the teapot on the table and poured himself a cup.
"Prefectural Office's control over Wanhua City is becoming more and more strict now. You shouldn't be here just to say these useless words, right?"
Hearing this, Wanyan Bei smiled lightly.
"Of course not. I came here to ask Brother Lin to join me Reverse Ten Floors."
"Reverse Ten Floors?"
Lin Sheng narrowed his eyes slightly and chewed on this unfamiliar name.
This was the first time he heard this name.
"It seems that Brother Lin doesn't know anymore, and that's right. After all, Reverse Ten Floors has been hiding in the dark, and not many people know about it."
Wanyan Bei was not surprised by Lin Sheng's reaction and continued to smile.
"Speaking of which, I should have found you, Brother Lin, a long time ago. It's just a pity that I was unlucky and encountered a Phantom Demon Beast demon species in the county town."
"Demon species?"
Hearing this, Lin Sheng felt a move in his heart.
Originally, he was still wondering why the devil didn't come to him during that trip to the county town, but now it seems that Wanyan Bei encountered him first.
"Then what's the result of Phantom Demon Beast's demon seed?"
Wanyan Bei was stunned for a moment, as if he didn't expect Lin Sheng to ask this, but he quickly shook his head with a smile.
"Of course I'll kill him. This thing is quite vindictive. If you provoke it, you can't let it go."
Lin Sheng nodded slightly. No wonder the demon species had never appeared in the past so long. It turned out that it had been completely destroyed by Wanyan Bei in front of him.
This Phantom Demon Beast demon seed has always been a thorn in his heart. Although as his strength has improved, this thorn has become increasingly irrelevant, but it is undoubtedly a good thing to be completely solved. Otherwise, it will always be hidden in the dark, and there is no guarantee when it will cause you some trouble.
"Why should I join you?"
Lin Sheng spoke softly.
"Join me, Reverse Ten Floors, and I, Wanyan Bei, can guarantee that your treatment, Brother Lin, will be better than your personal treatment in the Seven Forms Sect, and it will completely exceed it. The simplest example is that you can obtain the Supreme true power that breaks through Divine Form realm."
"You don't need to spend a lot of time practicing several real skills and mastering them like Seven Forms Sect. In addition, you can also mobilize the resources in the building. The richness will definitely not let you down."
Wanyan Bei smiled and spoke, but his words were full of temptation.
"Supreme's true power?"
Lin Sheng's eyes fell on Wanyan Bei.
He didn't expect that this so-called Reverse Ten Floors had such a background.
But if you think about it carefully, you will find that the opponent's identity is Southern Qi Kingdom, a behemoth that is three points stronger than Tianxiang Sword Sect.
Such a huge thing, even if it has been destroyed, is still bigger than a horse. Wanyan Bei, as its descendant, undoubtedly still has a lot of background. It is normal to have Supreme's true power, and Lin Sheng doubts that there are residual masters of that big force behind Wanyan Bei.
Otherwise, the big masters among the Yuanyang Beast Sect, Tianxiang Sword Sect, and even Imperial Court would not be able to help but take action based on the interests behind them.
In front of Divine Form realm's terrifying powerhouse, even if this Wanyan Bei genius ranks first among Black List, there is absolutely no resistance.
Therefore, there is a high probability that there is a Divine Form level master behind him.
It's a pity that he is not interested. This Wanyan Bei is an outsider after all, and Wanhua City is in a chaotic situation. He really didn't want to get involved in a new whirlpool.
And he knew very well that there was no free lunch in this world. If the other party could give him such a generous treatment, he would undoubtedly have to pay more.
This so-called Supreme real power is definitely not as simple as imagined. If it is not sure, there will be some means of restraint.
So he just thought about it for a moment and shook his head.
"Thank you for your kindness, but no need."
"Don't worry, Brother Lin, don't refuse in a hurry. Even if you don't join me Reverse Ten Floors, we still can't cooperate. I know you seem to need Spirit Beast and Spirit Beast focuses on defense. Maybe I can help you..."
Wanyan Bei was not surprised by Lin Sheng's rejection. He picked up the teapot on the stone table, poured himself a cup and said lightly.
"It seems that you are very interested in me..."
Lin Sheng narrowed his eyes and his voice gradually became darker.
"This information is nothing. Anyone who is willing to investigate can find it out. Brother Lin doesn't have to worry about it." Wanyan Bei said with a smile, seemingly unaware of the dangerous aura emanating from the other party.
"Seven days, seven days, I can get you the suitable Spirit Beast. As for the price, the Bone Forging Treasure Pill I gave you last time should not be sold yet, so I will use those two treasure pills as reward. I think Brother Lin will not refuse."
Having said this, Wanyan Bei grabbed the tea cup on the table, drank the tea in one gulp, and disappeared from the stone table.
Watching the other party's figure disappear, Lin Sheng tapped his fingers rhythmically on the stone table. After a while, he took out a piece of wood from the side again, grabbed the carving knife and began to carve it carefully.
If the other party can really get the suitable Spirit Beast, he is not opposed to trading with the other party.
Two Bone Forging Treasure Pills were left in his hands, but one Spirit Beast was just right.
On the other side, Wanyan Bei left Residence and landed on a high-rise loft outside the long street where Lin Sheng was located.
"Young Master, how is it? Did the boy agree?"
At the top of the attic, the short and skinny Pei Er had been waiting for a long time. When he saw his young master appearing, he asked hurriedly.
"No." Wanyan Bei shook his head slightly.
"This kid is really ungrateful. I don't think we need to waste much energy on him." Pei Er frowned slightly and said angrily.
In his opinion, his young master had given him a huge face by personally inviting him, but he didn't expect that he still refused. It was really disgusting.
"Originally, I was quite surprised when I met this boy last time, but I didn't expect that his strength would be greatly improved this time compared to before. It's really interesting. It seems that this boy has quite a secret."
Wanyan Bei spoke softly, his eyes falling on the spacious house in the distance, with a look of interest on his face.
"Young Master, this man already knows our existence. Since he doesn't want to join us, why don't we kill him to avoid leaking our whereabouts?"
Pei Er's face showed a hint of murderous intent.
"No need, this child is very popular with me. He can be trained as a shadow. He may be of great use in the future."
Wanyan Bei shook his head slightly.
"But young master, this boy has chosen to refuse even your personal invitation. I'm afraid it won't be so easy for him to join us."
"It doesn't matter. Rejecting now does not mean that he will continue to refuse. When he sees our strength, he will naturally understand that although Seven Forms Sect's true power can surpass Divine Form and can barely be regarded as Supreme's true power, it can only be regarded as the lowest among Supreme's true power."
"In addition, Elder Tong should still be in the jungle mountains now. Go and send a letter asking him to find a Spirit Beast that is good at defense and come back."
Wanyan Bei seemed to have thought of something and smiled lightly.
"Yes, young master." Pei Er still responded.
Time passed, and seven days passed quickly.
During these seven days, Lin Sheng basically spent all of Secluded Cultivation practicing.
Qingniao Chasing Star Finger's cultivation progress has improved significantly, but there is still a long way to go before a breakthrough.
According to his estimation, it will probably take nearly two months to reach the sixth level of Star Chasing Finger.
This kind of practice speed is already considered extremely fast.
It is much faster than Wei Yun originally.
It's just that Lin Sheng still feels a little slow.
"If I could re-enter the body of a flying bird Spirit Beast, my cultivation speed would undoubtedly speed up a lot. It's just a pity that flying birds Spirit Beast are not so easy to obtain."
Lin Sheng shook his head and sighed.
As for the mental concentration of the Clear Mind realm, it also has some effects compared to before, but of course it is just a few.
There is still a long way to go before we can completely condense our own spirit.
Seven Forms Sect has changed a lot in the past few days.
Because the Great Cui Peak beast mine was occupied by Imperial Court, the original beast mine share has been determined to be lost.
However, to his surprise, the garrison rewards were not cancelled, and sufficient rewards were still given to the disciples.
It's just that the resource allocation of each hospital will be reduced a lot in the future.
Judging from this situation, it is obvious that without a ten thousand year beast mine like Great Cui Peak, Seven Forms Sect will inevitably suffer from injuries.
"The financial situation of the Seven Forms Sect is not optimistic. I think the other White Dragon Gang and Fang Family will not be much better."
Lin Sheng murmured in his mouth.
Imperial Court tyrannically occupies the entire Yunshui Five Peaks. For the remaining three major forces, it is obvious that they will not give in. It is a pity that Imperial Court's power is too strong and they can only suffer this dumb loss.
Nowadays, Imperial Court has a lot of control over Wanhua City. I am afraid that the industries of these three major forces in the city will inevitably be affected.
In this case, the hidden contradiction between the two will undoubtedly intensify.
Although these three major forces dare not do anything openly, they are not sure about it secretly.
After all, if this continues, the financial crisis of the three major forces will undoubtedly become more serious.
It is impossible for Imperial Court not to know the consequences of continuing like this.
Lin Sheng was thinking in his heart and suddenly frowned.
What if this is what Imperial Court wants.
Once the three major forces couldn't bear it anymore, they wanted to make some small moves secretly, and Imperial Court waited for this opportunity to directly destroy the three major forces with Thunder methods like Crimson Whale Hall, even if others wanted to say something.
Although Northern Yan country Imperial Court suppresses all sects and families, there is still a balance between the two.
There are also many powerful people in sects and families, especially those with long-standing sects. If they are gathered together, they will be a threat that cannot be ignored for Imperial Court.
There has been a tacit understanding between the two for many years.
Although Imperial Court has always been domineering, he basically will not attack any sect or family without any reason.
Unless the latter does something extraordinary, he will exterminate the whole family.
Although I didn't know that Imperial Court would turn a blind eye to Wanhua City for so many years, the situation seems to have changed after Yunshui Mountain discovered the existence of Divine Seed.
"I can vaguely realize this, then the three major forces should be more aware..."
The three major forces have been able to stand Wanhua City for so many years, and there are many extremely smart people among them. I hope they can think of ways to deal with them.
With the Seven Forms Sect's current low-key behavior, he should not take the initiative to provoke Imperial Court, but this is not necessarily the case for White Dragon Gang and Fang Family.
All he can do is to improve his strength as soon as possible and protect himself and the people he cares about in the coming storm.
