Li Xiuping looked at the group of people in front of him, feeling helpless.
Under the current situation, it was almost impossible to settle the matter unless he really handed over the jet black dragon.
In fact, it's okay even if you hand it over. The little guy will still return on his own afterwards, but that will still expose himself, which is a waste of time.
Since everything will be exposed, it’s better to be more direct.
Li Xiuping smiled and said: "Okay, I'm just afraid that you can't afford it."
A monk curled his lips and said, "You tell me."
Li Xiuping stretched out a finger.
The man asked: "Ten thousand spiritual stones?"
Li Xiuping shook his head and said: "One million."
The man glared and said, "One million, you really dare to speak. Do you know how much one million is?"
Li Xiuping shook his head and said, "I don't know, so I wanted to take a look."
The man continued: "Three thousand spiritual stones, I can only give you so much."
Li Xiuping shook his head and said, "Your price must be a bit too harsh."
The man said coldly: "You have to sell it even if you want to sell it, and you have to sell it if you don't want to sell it."
Li Xiuping frowned and said, "So you are trying to rob me?"
The man shook his head and said: "How can giving money be called robbery? I, Chi Yushan, have always been reasonable."
Li Xiuping was a little stunned and felt that what he said really made sense.
At this time, the monks began to approach Li Xiuping, as if they were ready to take action.
Li Xiuping frowned and said, "Harmony brings wealth, and harmony brings wealth."
The man then asked: "Let me ask you one last time, do you want to sell it or not?"
Li Xiuping shook his head and said, "I really can't buy it."
The man lost his patience, waved his hand and said: "Do it."
Those people all rushed towards Li Xiuping.
Li Xiuping sighed helplessly, and then ran away again.
Akabane Mountain is the largest cultivation sect in the area. After he takes action, the elders of Akabane Mountain will definitely come forward, and his whereabouts will definitely be exposed. It won't take long for the guys from Star Observation Tower to catch up.
As those people surrounded Li Xiuping, Li Xiuping also directly released the sword intent in his body. The powerful momentum directly forced those people to retreat continuously, with shock on their faces.
A foundation-building monk was actually able to unleash such a terrifying momentum and force so many of them back at the same time.
Most of them are Foundation Establishment Stage monks, and only a few are still at the Qi Refining Stage. But even so, it is impossible for one Foundation Establishment Stage monk to push back so many people at the same time.
After Li Xiuping forced these people back, he did not continue to take action. Instead, he stood there and asked with a smile: "Do you still want to grab it?"
The person who spoke earlier frowned and looked solemn.
Li Xiuping continued: "If you don't want to grab it, then I'll leave first."
Saying that, he moved on.
The monks quickly backed away, not daring to stand in front of Li Xiuping.
Until this moment, they couldn't figure out how this guy exploded with that kind of power before, and they didn't dare to act rashly for a while.
They could all see that the cub was of a high level. If they could get it, it would be of great benefit to their practice. However, they did not know Li Xiuping and did not know the depth of this young man. If they took action rashly, they would probably suffer a loss. .
So let this guy leave first, and then return to the sect and inform the elders of the sect, who will take action. They won't be afraid that the young man will not hand over the spiritual pet.
After Li Xiuping left this place, he began to speed up.
He could naturally guess what these people were thinking, so he didn't want to have any conflict with Akabane Mountain, not because he was afraid, but to avoid leaking his whereabouts.
At that moment, others naturally couldn't notice anything, and these people didn't know his identity. But once he came into contact with those old guys in Akabane Mountain, it would be difficult to hide his identity. It wouldn't be long before the news that he had been to Akabane Mountain would be revealed. Will spread.
Seeing Li Xiuping quicken his pace, the monks guessed that Li Xiuping wanted to escape. They also felt that although the young man was able to force them back before, he only used some secret method that they didn't know, rather than a strong man hiding his cultivation.
In their eyes, with Li Xiuping's age, it is naturally impossible for him to be a strong man in the Golden Core stage, because a Golden Core monk in his twenties is one of the best geniuses in the entire cultivation world, and there must be a powerful person behind him. The backers will not hold back on them at all, because such people don't care at all what kind of backers are behind them.
In the same way, they do not believe that this young man is the kind of strong man in the Nascent Soul stage who hides his cultivation. Although a strong man in the Nascent Soul stage can rejuvenate himself and hide his cultivation, if this person is really a strong man in the Nascent Soul stage, he would not be able to do so before. Hold on, because even if they are disciples of Chiyu Mountain, a Nascent Soul Stage powerhouse won't care.
Although Red Feather Mountain is the most powerful sect in this area, it is actually only two Nascent Soul Stage strongmen sitting here. If a Nascent Soul Stage strongman really passes by, let alone beating one or two disciples of Red Feather Mountain, even if it means killing After a few, I was able to leave in a swaggering manner.
A disciple watched Li Xiuping disappear into the crowd and asked, "Brother, what should we do now?"
A monk said: "Go back to the sect first and report the matter to the master, who will make a decision."
The rest of the people nodded and left.
After Li Xiuping left the small town, he headed east, deliberately avoiding Chiyu Mountain, and headed for the big city in the south.
There are not many roads that can be walked from here to the east. One needs to pass through the foot of Akabane Mountain, and the other needs to pass through the city in the south. Moreover, Li Xiu Ping was originally going to enter that city, but now he just speeded up. .
After leaving the city, the dragon also turned into a little boy and followed Li Xiuping, not daring to speak along the way. The situation was like a child who had done something wrong.
Soon, Li Xiuping and Yan Xin entered the big city, and at this time, the people on the Red Feather Mountain side had not caught up with them. At this speed, after Li Xiuping left and continued eastward, even if the Red Feather Mountain side really wanted to catch up, I'm afraid I won't be able to catch up.
As long as Chiyushan cannot catch up, there will be no conflict between the two sides, and his whereabouts will not be exposed. Then he only needs to continue the lurker's eastward journey until he enters the boundaries of Emperor Wu City.
According to the senior swordsman, as long as he enters the territory of Emperor Wu City, even Star Observation Tower and Taiyi Pavilion will not continue to pursue him, so he is considered safe.
So after entering the city, although it was getting late, Li Xiuping didn't want to stay here too long. He took the lead in looking for a place where he could buy a map, and planned to leave directly.
But when Li Xiuping was buying the map, he happened to find out some information, and it was also related to Akabane Mountain.
According to the boss who sells the map, Akabane Shan recently got a piece of Immortal Source Stone from somewhere and it will be auctioned in three days.
As a result, Li Xiuping couldn't help but become embarrassed.
Immortal source stone is a necessary material for casting immortal swords. This thing is extremely difficult to find, so the price is high. If it weren't for being in Piaoxue City, if it weren't for the Sword Washing Pond, you might not be able to find it.
In the current situation, he must forge the fairy sword, because only by successfully casting the fairy sword can the current situation be changed. To cast the fairy sword, he must first gather all the materials required for the sword, among which the fairy sword must be cast. The source stone is the most difficult main material to obtain. Now that you have encountered it, you must naturally take it in your hands.
But in this way, he would have to come into contact with Chi Yushan. Then it would be difficult to hide his whereabouts, and he would soon have to face the pursuit of the guys from the Star Observation Tower.
After much hesitation, Li Xiuping decided to stay.
If you want to completely solve the troubles in Star Observation Tower and Taiyi Pavilion, you must cast the Immortal Sword as soon as possible, so you must hold this Immortal Origin Stone in your hands.
To buy the Immortal Source Stone, you need at least tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of spirit stones. Of course, Li Xiuping does not have so many spirit stones now. It is unrealistic to collect them all within three days, so if he wants to buy this Immortal Source Stone , it is definitely hopeless.
However, Li Xiuping also had other ways to get the Immortal Origin Stone, such as the method used by the disciples at Chiyu Mountain before.
Unknown robbery, but can it be bought by force?
Those disciples from Chiyu Mountain wanted to buy his spiritual pet with three thousand spirit stones, so he could also use a few spirit stones to buy the Immortal Source Stone from Chiyu Mountain, and reciprocate the favor. Li Xiuping thought this was fair.
In this case, there is no need to wait for the auction in three days. Anyway, we will have to contact Akabane Mountain sooner or later. It is better to take the initiative to avoid trouble again when Akabane Mountain is prepared.
After Li Xiuping handed over the money for the map, he thanked the boss, returned to the street, opened the map, determined the direction of Chiyu Mountain, and then headed straight for Chiyu Mountain.
Anyway, even if his whereabouts were exposed, it would be impossible for the guys from the Star Observation Tower to catch up for a while. By the time those guys arrived, he would have already escaped with the Immortal Source Stone.
…
Akabane Mountain.
The group of monks had just returned to the sect and reported their previous experiences to the sect. They couldn't help but add fuel to the fire. Chiyushan felt that the sect's majesty had been challenged and wanted to find that daring guy to seek justice for his disciples. .
But because there will be an auction in Akabane Mountain in three days, if you go after a foundation-building monk who appears out of nowhere at this time, it might have an impact on the auction in three days, so here in Akabane Mountain there is Time is also a bit difficult.
At this time, an old man asked: "Is it true that you only have the foundation-building stage?"
A disciple immediately nodded and said: "I don't know what secret magic is hidden in him. When he uses it, we can't get close. Maybe it has something to do with that spiritual beast."
The old man who asked the question narrowed his eyes and nodded, and then continued: "Fifth Junior Brother, why don't you take them to have a look. If you can avoid doing anything, try not to do it. Don't let others have any ideas about me, Akabane Mountain."
Suddenly an old man stood up, nodded and said, "Senior brother, don't worry, I know what's appropriate."
After speaking, he said to the disciples: "Follow me."
Several disciples who had just returned hurriedly saluted the elders present, and then followed that person out of the hall.
As soon as everyone left the main hall, a disciple ran up in panic. After seeing the old man walking out of the main hall, he saluted and said: "Fifth Elder, a young man came down the mountain and said he wanted to buy the Immortal Source Stone from our Chiyu Mountain. .”
The fifth elder of Akabane Mountain frowned slightly and said, "I just want to go out, so don't disturb the leader and the others."
The disciple who made the report nodded and followed the fifth elder back toward the mountain gate.
At the gate of Chiyu Mountain, Li Xiuping was standing in front of the gate, waiting unhurriedly. Yan Xin had changed into his original appearance and was lying on his shoulder.
At this time, he must have felt that someone was coming, so he looked towards the mountain gate.
An old man led a group of disciples out, and Li Xiuping recognized these Chiyu Mountain disciples at a glance. They were the same ones who wanted to buy spiritual pets from him earlier. Looking at the old man taking the lead, he has a strong aura. He should be in the middle to late stage of the Golden Core stage, or may even have reached the peak of the Golden stage.
The old man naturally noticed Li Xiuping and couldn't help but frown slightly.
Such a young man came to Chiyu Mountain alone and threatened to buy the Immortal Origin Stone. It seemed like a joke no matter how you looked at it.
The disciples of Chiyu Mountain naturally recognized Li Xiuping, and one disciple immediately said: "The fifth elder, that's him."
The fifth elder of Akabane Mountain was stunned for a moment, frowned and looked at Li Xiuping in front of the mountain gate, and then walked up. While looking at Li Xiuping, he asked: "I heard that I want to buy the Immortal Origin Stone?"
Li Xiuping smiled and nodded, saying: "I really need this thing, so I hope your sect can part with it, as long as the price is..."
He paused and looked at the disciples of Chiyu Mountain.
Seeing this from Li Xiuping, all the disciples of Chiyu Mountain frowned.
The fifth elder of Akabane Mountain asked: "I wonder how much money I can afford, little friend?"
Li Xiuping groped around on his body for a while, and then found that there was not even a single spiritual stone on his body, so he simply took out all the gold and silver he had obtained from selling the Qiankun Bag before, taking out a little here and a little there, and piled them on the ground. A small pile.
There is indeed a lot of gold and silver. If placed at the foot of the mountain, it would be enough for many people to have food and clothing for a lifetime. However, this is Chiyu Mountain and the world of cultivation. In their eyes, these gold and silver are nothing.
After Li Xiuping was sure that he could no longer escape, he stopped his movements, and then said with a smile: "Since I only have so much on me, senior, will you see if it is enough?"
The fifth elder of Akabane Mountain frowned.
Obviously, the young man was joking, but at this moment, he didn't think that the young man was joking.
The fifth elder of Akabane Mountain narrowed his eyes and said, "Is this kid kidding me?"
Li Xiuping shook his head and said with great sincerity: "No, no, I really only have so much money, and I got it by selling my belongings."
The fifth elder of Chiyu Mountain still asked patiently: "Since I know the Immortal Source Stone, I should naturally know the price of the Immortal Source Stone. So I really don't understand why I think these things can buy Immortal Source Stone." Source Stone.”
Li Xiuping said with a smile: "Previously, the disciples of your sect used three thousand spirit stones to buy the spiritual beasts on me. Then it is natural for me to use these gold and silver to buy your sect's immortal source stone."
He then added: "By the way, these are the people behind Senior."
Hearing this, the fifth elder couldn't help but look back at the disciples of Red Feather Mountain, and then looked at Li Xiuping again, his brows frowning deeper.
Now he naturally understood that this young man did not really come to buy the Immortal Source Stone, but came to cause trouble.
He couldn't understand why a young man who was only in the foundation building stage dared to come to Akabane Mountain alone to look for trouble, so he didn't dare to be careless for a while.
Since this young man can have such courage, he must have enough confidence. At least he must have a strong backer behind him, a backer that even Akabane Mountain would not dare to offend.
He could naturally see that this boy was only at the Foundation Establishment stage, but at such a young age he was able to reach the peak of the Foundation Establishment stage, and his talent was quite strong, so there was a high possibility that this boy came from some powerful sect.
The entire cultivation world, regardless of individuals or forces, is all about bullying the weak and fearing the strong. If you encounter a weak one, you will kill them, but if you encounter a strong one, you will naturally have to compromise. If this young man really has a strong backer, then when he came to Akabane Mountain this time, he probably didn't really want to buy the Immortal Source Stone, but just wanted an explanation.
What puzzled the fifth elder was that the disciples in the sect had previously said that the young man had run away. Then why did he go directly to Chiyu Mountain now? He also knew that there was an Immortal Origin Stone in Chiyu Mountain.
The fifth elder of Chiyu Mountain thought for a moment, and then said with a smile: "If I, Chiyu Mountain, are not strict in discipline, and one of my disciples offends the young master, I will apologize to the young master here."
Li Xiuping shook his head and said: "There is no need to apologize. They have not offended me. I am not here to settle accounts with them. I just really want to buy the Immortal Origin Stone. If your sect doesn't sell it..."
He paused, looked up at the gate of Red Feather Mountain, and continued: "Then I don't mind picking it up myself, but when the time comes, I'm afraid I won't just buy the Immortal Source Stone."
The fifth elder of Akabane Mountain frowned deeper and his face looked a little gloomy.
Having said this, if he still didn't understand this young man's intention, then all these years of practice would have been in vain.
Obviously, this young man has long known that there is an Immortal Origin Stone in the Red Feather Mountain, and the reason why he came to the realm of the Red Feather Mountain is probably for the Immortal Origin Stone. As for the conflict with his disciples, it may be just a coincidence. Maybe this young man could do it just to have an excuse to go to Akabane Mountain to ask for the Immortal Origin Stone.
The Immortal Source Stone is actually of no use to Chiyu Mountain, but some strong people need it very much, so this thing can be sold for a lot of money, and it can also build a good relationship with those strong people, killing two birds with one stone, and it is of great benefit to the development of the sect. .
The most important point is that now that the news about Chiyu Mountain has been released, if Chiyu Mountain cannot produce the Immortal Origin Stone at the auction three days later, it will be deceiving the powerful people in the entire spiritual world. At that time, Chiyu Mountain will His reputation will have a great impact, and may even directly offend some powerful people and bring disaster to Akabane Mountain.
Therefore, the Immortal Source Stone cannot be given to the young man in front of him no matter what.
Just a young man at the peak of the foundation building stage dares to come to Akabane Mountain to show off his power. Even if he has a strong backer behind him, he still doesn't take Akabane Mountain seriously.
The fifth elder of Akabane Mountain became a little heavier and said: "If you really want the Immortal Origin Stone, you can just buy it at the auction three days later. But now, let alone these common things that you took out, even if The young master can offer an equal price, but I, Chi Yushan, cannot offer the Immortal Source Stone."
Li Xiuping frowned and said, "So there's nothing to talk about?"
