Yang Zhen spent a lot of effort and finally made the demon monkey understand the meaning of his words.
What he is actually talking about is two things.
First of all, these hostages are the descendants of various Jindan ancestors. If they were held hostage, it would only arouse the resentment of these ancestors, causing them to unite to deal with the secret realm together.
Therefore, it is absolutely undesirable to use hostages as threats.
Second, the benefit of the sect does not mean that the various palace masters will also benefit.
If the secret realm is really destroyed and the sect obtains a fourth-level spiritual vein, this spiritual vein will eventually fall into the hands of Baoyuan Palace and General Affairs Palace.
Among them, Baoyuan Palace governs the spiritual veins of the world, so it will definitely take away some of the benefits. In addition, the sect currently does not lack fourth-level spiritual veins. The extra spiritual veins will most likely be handed over to the General Affairs Hall and then rented out to families in need in the Xu Kingdom.
For example, the Zhao family currently rents a fourth-level spiritual vein from the sect in order to allow Patriarch Yunjun to advance to Jindan. The annual rent paid is equivalent to the family's savings for five or six years, which is not a high price.
Since only these two families benefited, the other Jindan ancestors would certainly not be so interested in capturing this secret realm. Why is it that when everyone contributes, it is you two who get the benefits?
And this happened to be the purple-faced monkey's hope of preserving the secret realm.
In addition, Yang Zhen also mentioned that the little girl who went out yesterday was the most beloved disciple of the current master of Baoyuan Hall. He was confident that through this little girl, he could persuade the master of Baoyuan Palace to give up his coveting of Langshan's spiritual veins. If successful, the resistance will be reduced by half.
"It's difficult to motivate everyone to do something that is not beneficial. If only the Shuwudian family insists on it in the end, this matter will probably be dropped."
"Another important point is that before the orb is recovered, the secret realm must be demolished first. If this matter is spread, it will only be ridiculed by the Qin State. The sect will never be so unwise." He finally said.
The demon monkey shook its huge head and walked back and forth. He thought what the kid said, well, made sense, but he was worried that something might be missing. You have lived for hundreds of years, don't let a teenage human child deceive you in the end.
After hesitating for a long time, he finally snorted and said:
"It's up to you to let those little bastards go!"
"As for you! Anyway, you can't go out for the time being, so you will tell me stories for a few days. As long as you make me happy, I will give you one of the two casual cultivator tokens in my hand and send you out!"
The two tokens he mentioned were taken from Wu Zhaotian and Luo Xiaoyu who had suffered misfortune. The tokens of Liu and Huang were turned into ashes along with the storage bag in the lava flames.
"It's a deal!" Yang Zhen was overjoyed.
Although he himself has a teleportation token that he exchanged from Niu Youde, why should the monster monkey know about such a trump card?
A bright smile appeared on his face, as if at this moment, he had returned to the outside world safely.
…
For the next two days, Yang Zhen was left on the mountain, telling the story of "Journey to the West" whenever she had time. Zihou was not only listening himself, but also with his group of descendants, although Yang Zhen doubted whether these first-order monsters could understand human language.
Among them, those in the late stage of the first level of Nine Heads were placed at the front of the monkey group by Zihou. Whenever Yang Zhen talks about something exciting and Zi Hou laughs, these monkeys will jump around excitedly. I don’t know whether they really understand or just follow them.
There is a demon monkey who looks relatively small, but actually has a tuft of white hair on his forehead. He is nicknamed "Little White Hair" by Yang Zhen. Among this group of demon monkeys, he listens to stories most carefully and responds most quickly. .
"What do you think of Little Baimao?" On the afternoon of the second day, when Yang Zhen was resting, Zihou actually walked up to him and asked such a question.
He had already followed Yang Zhen's lead and also called the monkey Xiao Baimao.
"Very spiritual." Yang Zhen didn't understand what he meant and said vaguely.
"Yes." Zihou nodded, seemingly satisfied with the answer, and then left without saying anything.
Yang Zhen was confused.
…
As a reward for telling the story, Zihou also allowed Yang Zhen to pick all the spiritual plants on Monkey Mountain, as long as they were mature. These include the two extremely precious purple cloud flowers, as well as second-level spiritual herbs such as purple-faced monkey flower, purple star grass, and Polygonatum odorifera.
If it is handed over to the sect, it can be exchanged for more than 50,000 contribution points!
Yang Zhen decided to exchange them all for contribution points after going out. At that time, he will not only become an inner disciple in one fell swoop and enjoy greater rights, but it will also provide great convenience for the future cultivation of Caiyun, Tiezhu, Caisi and others.
After all, it’s not that easy to get so many opportunities to contribute points. In his stone space, these so-called rare spiritual grasses can be continuously produced in the future.
He either collected the seeds of various spiritual plants that existed in the secret realm now, or directly transplanted the young plants. Among them, the most important ones were planted within a seven-foot radius of Yiyi.
The current growth rate of these areas is seven times that of the outside world. As Yiyi's cultivation improves, this rate can continue to increase.
Even at this rate, the Ziyunhua in the space can harvest its first mature flower in no more than fifty years. The purple-faced monkey flower and other main materials for refining the Foundation Establishment Pill will all be mature in less than three years!
Thinking of this, Yang Zhen felt hot. I can't wait to return to the sect immediately and practice hard on alchemy.
…
Although the harvest of spiritual plants far exceeded expectations, there was still one treasure that Yang Zhen had always coveted.
When Zihou took him back to the cave on the night of the third day, Yang Zhen couldn't help but make a request:
"That fire spirit bead is a must in the secret realm? If I take it away, what price will I have to pay?"
"Fire Spirit Pearl?" Zihou paused for a moment, patted his forehead, and seemed to have just remembered this object.
"This thing was left here by the Yunwang Sect to absorb excess fire spiritual energy. It should not be of much use."
It turns out that when the Wood Lingzhu converts the spiritual energy into the wood type, because the wood is warm and the fire is hidden in it, there will often be a trace of fire type spiritual energy. The function of this fire spirit bead is to absorb these fire spiritual energy to make the wood spiritual energy in the secret realm more docile.
"If the Wood Spirit Pearl cannot be found, it will be useless if it is left here." Zihou laughed at himself.
As he spoke, he stretched out his huge palm, twisted the dark red bead with his thick fingers, and placed it in front of his eyes to look at it carefully.
As he looked at it, his giant bell-like eyes suddenly widened!
"Hahaha!" Zihou laughed wildly.
"Yunxiao Sect, come on! If you don't get the Wood Spirit Pearl back, I will destroy this secret realm and you will get nothing!"
"Hahaha!"
His expression was ferocious, seeming to be ecstatic and extremely angry, and as he laughed wildly, Yang Zhen's heart trembled, and she felt something bad.
