Crazy Extortion, Finally Obtaining the Imperial Dragon King's Soul Bone!
"Yun Ming, since you've chosen to settle this privately, let's have a proper discussion about compensation."
As everyone took their seats, Mu Ye looked at Yun Ming and spoke calmly.
Mu Ye's words also brought Yun Ming back to his senses, and he immediately said, "Sect Master Mu, this Secret of the Body was left behind by the ancestors of the Shrek Academy thousands of years ago, not something we intentionally left behind."
"That's right," Cai Yue'er echoed. "Moreover, the Secret of the Body was given to Ling Bing by your Body Sect's ancestor. It's already quite remarkable that we've preserved it for so many years without it being damaged."
A mocking smile appeared on Mu Ye's lips as he waved his hand and said, "Yun Ming, stop with the nonsense. If you want to preserve Shrek Academy's so-called glory, you'd better show some sincerity."
"Moreover, your Shrek Academy has had quite a few scholars who have dedicated themselves to studying the Secret of the Body our Body Sect over the past thousand years."
Upon hearing this, none of the Sea God Pavilion Elder responded.
Whether it is true or not, they know best in their hearts.
"Tell me, Sect Master Mu, what do you want?"
After a moment of silence, Yun Ming spoke up.
He knew very well that Shrek Academy was bound to suffer Blood One today, but only by satisfying the Body Sect could Shrek Academy take effective measures to salvage its reputation.
Upon hearing this, Hu Jie's eyes narrowed, filled with eagerness. Finally, the part he loved most—the compensation payment—had arrived!
"First, our Body Sect needs ten Soul Bone of the 100,000-year level," Mu Ye said.
"How many?!"
As soon as the words were spoken, the Elder of the Sea God Pavilion were in an uproar. They knew that Ten Thousand Year Soul Bone was already a rare item in this era, and a hundred-thousand-year-old one was an unparalleled treasure.
Now that the Body Sect is asking for ten coins right off the bat, how could they possibly give that!
Immediately, Long Yeyue said coldly, "Ten Soul Bone of the 100,000-year level? That's absolutely impossible!"
But Mu Ye ignored Long Yeyue and instead raised an eyebrow at Yun Ming, "Yun Ming, who is in charge of the Sea God Pavilion, you or Long Yeyue?"
Upon hearing this, Yun Ming's expression immediately turned somewhat unpleasant; this wasn't the first time Long Yeyue had done something like this.
However, this was not the time to dwell on this, so Yun Ming had to suppress his anger for the time being and shook his head at Mu Ye, saying:
"Sect Master Mu, we truly cannot produce ten 100,000-year-level Soul Bone. After all, land-based Soul Beast are nearly extinct, and Shrek Academy doesn't have that many."
"Yun Ming, Soul Beast are nearly extinct, but Shrek Academy has hunted quite a few Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast in the past two thousand years, right? Soul Bone don't dissipate; you can't produce them?"
Mu Ye crossed his arms and said, "I remember that ten thousand years ago, when there were no Soul Spirit, your Sea God Pavilion Master must have at least two Hundred Thousand Year Soul Ring, and Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast is guaranteed to Soul Bone."
Upon hearing this, Yun Ming and the other members of the Sea God Pavilion had no words to refute it.
Because what Mu Ye said is true.
Jiang Xiu's eyes flickered slightly, because he knew that one of the Sea God Pavilion's leaders did not possess two Hundred Thousand Year Soul Ring, and that was the Supreme Elder Xuan Zi...
After exchanging whispers with several Sea God Pavilion Elder, Yun Ming finally said slowly, "Ten pieces are impossible, but we can offer eight..."
"Deal!" Mu Ye said without hesitation.
Eight Soul Bone of the 100,000-year level are already a significant asset for the current Body Sect.
And his initial bottom line was five yuan, but he didn't expect Shrek Academy to not negotiate.
"That's too much." Seeing Mu Ye agree so readily, Yun Ming's face darkened.
"Ahem, but we need to specify the attributes for these eight Soul Bone." Mu Ye added at the end.
"Okay." Yun Ming gritted his teeth and spat out the two words.
"Secondly, we need these rare metals on this list."
Seeing that Yun Ming agreed, Mu Ye took out a list taller than a person from his Storage Soul Tool and placed it on the conference table in front of Yun Ming.
"Primordial Nether Silver... ten kilograms!"
"Earth Mother Flame Gold, thirty kilograms!"
"Dragon Blood Fiend Gold, fifty kilograms!!!"
Upon seeing the rare metals listed above and the required weight, the Elder of the Sea God Pavilion widened their eyes, and Elder even stood up.
It should be noted that these rare metals are priceless and unavailable for sale, and even if they are available, they are measured in grams. Yet the Body Sect is calculating them in kilograms right off the bat!
Do you really think this is a common cabbage?!
Yun Ming frowned deeply, not only because of the weight, but also because these items were actually in the Shrek Academy's treasury!
They're almost identical!
Could there be a mole within the Shrek Academy?
"Impossible! Absolutely impossible! Shrek Academy doesn't have that many!"
"Why do you need so many? Why don't you Body Sect rob us?"
Several Elder shouted angrily at Mu Ye.
"Rob? Robbing won't get you anywhere as fast as this," Mu Ye said without any hesitation.
This list was given to him by Jiang Xiu. Although he was also alarmed when he saw it, he still took it out.
After all, it's about making money, so there's no shame in it.
At this moment, Yun Ming also spoke up, "Sect Master Mu, our Shrek Academy doesn't have that many. We can only give you a third of the amount at most."
Having learned from his previous experience, Yun Ming became more skilled at bargaining.
"No, no, no, Yun Ming, I'm not discussing this with you, but informing you." Mu Ye shook his head slightly and continued:
"Furthermore, as long as you provide these metals, I can guarantee Shrek Academy a quota every three years to forge a Four-Word Battle Armor from the Blacksmith Association."
"Um?"
Upon hearing this, the Shrek Academy Elder, who had been indignant, immediately fell silent.
The rarity of the Four-Word Battle Armor is self-evident, and there is currently only one Divine Craftsman on the entire continent.
Trading a small amount of metal for Four-Word Battle Armor... doesn't seem like an impossible possibility...
Looking at the performance of the Sea God Pavilion Elder, Mu Ye's eyes showed a hint of satisfaction. This was something his disciple Jiang Xiu had told him, and Zhen Hua had already agreed to.
"Is this true?" Yun Ming pondered for a moment, then looked up and inquired.
You know, rare metals can be found again if you run out, but Four-Word Battle Armor is very hard to obtain.
"Really? But this condition can only be met in three years," Mu Ye nodded.
"Alright! It's a deal then!" Yun Ming had been thinking about how to get Zhen Hua to forge Battle Armor after offending the Body Sect, but now the problem was solved.
It seems that the Body Sect isn't deliberately trying to sever ties with the Shrek Academy.
The Elder all agreed, proving that Shrek Academy's reputation was indeed still intact.
But Jiang Xiu's lips curled into a slight smile at that moment.
While that promise is true, Shrek Academy still needs to survive for three years...
And after returning this time, he began to follow his Grandmaster's instructions to enter the Federation. This time, he would not give Shrek Academy the slightest chance to revive.
"Alright, let's do it according to the list!" Seeing the hopeful eyes of the Elder, Yun Ming gritted his teeth and nodded.
After all, this concerns the future high-end combat power of the Shrek Academy, and even if he doesn't agree, the Elder won't be willing.
Next came the rare and precious materials that Mu Ye had requested.
Because of the previous Four-Word Battle Armor, the Elder of the Sea God Pavilion surprisingly did not object this time.
"You took the Soul Bone, the metal, and the rare and precious materials. There shouldn't be anything left now, right?"
After reluctantly agreeing to these conditions, Yun Ming suppressed his frustration and said calmly.
At this moment, Mu Ye glanced at Jiang Xiu, Jiang Xiu nodded slightly and looked at Yun Ming, saying:
"Yun Ming, we have one more condition: that the Sea God Pavilion return the Destruction Attribute Inherited Soul Bone that was taken from the Sun-Moon Imperial Family ten thousand years ago."
"Hmm?" Upon hearing this, Yun Ming's eyes narrowed instantly. Information about this Soul Bone was known only to the core Elder of their Sea God Pavilion. How did Jiang Xiu know about it?
"Jiang Xiu, don't be unreasonable. There's no such thing as Soul Bone here," Long Yeyue said in a low voice.
She knew that Jiang Xiu's Second Martial Soul was the Purple Imperial Heaven-Extinguishing Dragon Martial Soul. If she gave this Soul Bone to Jiang Xiu now, then Jiang Xiu's potential would most likely be raised even higher!
"Sect Master Yun Ming, my Second Martial Soul is the Purple Brilliant Heaven Destroying Dragon. Within a certain distance, I can sense the existence of that Soul Bone." At this moment, Jiang Xiu added meaningfully.
Given the previous example of how the Body Secret Art could attract the Secret of the Body, Yun Ming subconsciously assumed that Jiang Xiu had sensed the existence of that Soul Bone.
After all, he didn't possess the Purple Imperial Heaven-Extinguishing Dragon Martial Soul, nor did he understand the specific relationships involved.
However, what this Soul Bone contains is very likely related to the Divine Realm...
Thinking of this, Yun Ming frowned again.
But at that moment, Jiang Xiu slowly said, "As long as Yun Ming Master Yunming returns this Soul Bone, we can let bygones be bygones regarding the fact that these Elder of the Shrek Academy borrowed the Secret of the Body."
"Furthermore... we will not retract those so-called self-created techniques that you borrowed from the Secret of the Body."
"Oh?" Yun Ming raised an eyebrow, a glint of light flashing in his eyes. If he didn't retract his gaze, it meant they could continue cultivating.
Therefore, using a Soul Bone that he couldn't comprehend to preserve these cultivation techniques seemed like a good deal.
The other Elder also looked at Yun Ming with agreement, after all, they had all seen the Secret of the Body to some extent.
Seeing this, Jiang Xiu's lips curled slightly. The reason he made this request was because the Dark Bell had already told him that Shrek Academy would soon explode.
When the time comes, these techniques and these Elder will vanish into thin air, and he will naturally be willing to make this offer.
It's possible that the Sea God Pavilion Elder won't lose money, but he'll definitely make a profit.
At this moment, Chen Xinjie glanced down at the Communication Soul Tool, frowned, but then an excited look appeared on his face as he looked dangerously at the members of the Body Sect.
"You dare attack the War God of the Federation's War God Temple? You won't escape this time..."
However, no one paid attention to him at the moment, and Yun Ming made up his mind at this time.
"In that case, we will return the Soul Bone that we have kept for the Sun-Moon Imperial Family for ten thousand years to you."
As he spoke, Yun Ming took out a box of unknown material from his Storage Soul Tool and slowly pushed it onto the table in front of Jiang Xiu.
A hint of excitement appeared in Jiang Xiu's eyes as he slowly opened the box with one hand.
Clang! Clang! Clang!
The moment the box was opened, an extremely terrifying aura of destruction surged out, instantly filling the entire room with a terrifying destructive power.
Inside the box lay a crystal-clear, divine Dragon Claw claw, its entire body covered in Golden Dragon, radiating an aura of terrifying destruction, seemingly possessing both boundless nobility and tyranny.
"Sing!"
The moment Jiang Xiu saw it, the Purple Imperial Heaven-Extinguishing Dragon Martial Soul within him emitted an incredibly loud dragon roar, his eyes filled with longing!
"That's right, this is the Soul Bone of the First Generation Purple Imperial Heaven-Extinguishing Dragon — the Imperial Dragon King— who was born at the same time as the Dragon God!"
Jiang Xiu felt invigorated.
But what he didn't realize was...
At this moment, Leng Yaozhu, whom he was holding, had her legs together, and her cold and beautiful phoenix eyes showed both shock and a hint of eagerness.
The Phoenix Martial Soul within her body actually created a subtle connection with Jiang Xiu's Martial Soul, almost like a harmonious union!
