Yun Piaomiao glanced at Zhang Hu coldly and said solemnly: "Your name is Zhang Hu, right? How many spiritual stones do you want?"
Zhang Hu was not afraid and said calmly: "With Sect Master Yun's worth, it's really disrespectful to ask for such a low price. Let's just give him 10 billion."
Yun Piaomiao was furious, "Damn it, what do you mean by not giving me face? If you want to give me face, just don't ask for any spiritual stones." She sneered, turned to Cheng Ling and said, "Sect Master Cheng, is this the attitude of the monks of your sect?"
Cheng Ling laughed and said to Zhang Hu, "You're not big or small, how can you talk to Sect Master Yun?"
Yun Piaomiao's face turned pale, but before she could calm down, she heard Cheng Ling continue to say: "As the leader of the Yun clan, how can we pay the full price, at least a 20% discount, let's say 8 billion! Our sect I also know that you spent a lot of money refining this plate, so it would be nice to make up for it a little!"
Yun Piaomiao almost spurted out a mouthful of blood. Did he still have to spend it? I don’t think I feel so refreshed now! As for the fire damage fee, it is pure nonsense. I have never heard of the theory that sky fire will be lost after being used.
Zhang Hu immediately hit the snake on the stick and said with a bitter look on his face: "Yes, master! Master Yun, you also saw that the master generously only allowed 20% off. As for you...!"
After saying that, he looked at Huang Shiren and the Qi Alliance monks behind him, paused for a long time and then said: "Just so you can give me a tuition fee of one billion, this is a discounted price, there is no need to negotiate!"
The monks from the Qi Alliance looked happy, but they didn't have any objections. One billion spirit stones is not much, and seeing Zhang Hu take action will be of great help to his weapon refining skills. Maybe he will be able to make a breakthrough after some time of reflection. One by one, they unpacked their bags, took out the spirit stones from their storage rings, and piled them in front of Zhang Hu.
Zhang Hu laughed, put it all away with a wave of his hand, and said: "Okay, you guys are very good. Those who handed over the spirit stone will move the planks over and cross the magma lake first!"
After saying that, he flashed his body and stopped at the edge of the lake where the plank was to be placed. The only thing written beside him was: I drove this road and built this bridge. If you want to cross from now on, leave the money to buy the road!
King Jiao, Yun Piaomiao, Dugu Feng, Murong Qian, and Duanmucheng's expressions changed greatly, and they looked at Zhang Hu with murderous intent in their eyes. It's just that Cheng Ling and Zhang Hu sang together, and they said it very mysteriously. Zhang Hu was placed as a disciple of the younger generation, and if he contributed some efforts to the seniors, the seniors must give some benefits.
This is not easy to argue with. If you do, you are bullying the small.
Zhao Shiyan laughed, threw out a storage ring first, and said: "That's right, little friend Zhang Hu did a great job in helping us cross the lake. Let's spend all these spiritual stones!"
After saying that, he turned around and winked at King Jiao and the others, and walked straight over.
You must have seen it right. The three alliances of elixir, weapon, and formation have been won over at once. They may need help from the other party in the future. There is no need to be unhappy because of this spiritual stone.
King Jiao and the others felt as if they had swallowed a fly. Everyone knew the reason, but they just couldn't swallow this breath.
Feng Feifei chuckled, threw out a storage ring, waved her hand, and walked across the Banqiao with the monks from Feng Yan Sect.
Without saying a word, Lu Jiansheng also threw out a storage ring and walked over with the monks from the Shura Sword Sect.
The monks from the three alliances of Dan, Qi, and Zhen swarmed forward, and they all crossed the Banqiao in an instant.
Cheng Ling chuckled, glanced with admiration, and said casually: "Zhang Hu, let's go quickly, even the top-grade treasure-grade plates can't withstand it.
The flame impact here would be bad if the plate melts halfway. "
After saying that, he took Liu Qingyan and others and rushed to the other side of the magma lake with a roar.
Zhang Hu immediately panicked and said, "Master, wait for me. I can't bear to have such a good piece of wood melted by the flames. I'll put it away when I get there!"
King Jiao and others' hearts skipped a beat, and with a sweep of their consciousness, they saw that the bottom of the plate had been blackened by the flames and looked much thinner. They were really afraid that Zhang Hu would take the ring back after passing by.
He bit the dragon's teeth into pieces and said fiercely: "Wait a minute, we've got this spiritual stone out!"
After saying that, they all threw out their storage rings, fearing that Zhang Hu would not give them a chance to cross the bridge, so they rushed over instantly.
Zhang Hu chuckled sinisterly and said, "Play with me. I have reached the master's seventh level of power, but you are still far behind." After everyone had passed, he also crossed the Banqiao and actually put it away again.
The corners of Jiao Wang's and others' mouths twitched, and their looks at Cheng Ling and others became even more unkind!
Zhao Shiyan smiled bitterly and shook his head. Cheng Ling had offended King Jiao and others severely. These two groups must take it easy. The five-pointed star pattern has not been discovered yet, so it is not the time for a big fight!
After crossing the magma lake, Zhao Shiyan continued to lead the way. As we continued deeper inside, the ground temperature gradually dropped, and traces of green were found all around, but the gray sky remained the same, making it feel much more depressing than before.
Gradually, there were more and more green plants around, and eventually a whole dense forest was formed. It's just that the trees in the dense forest were all black and gray. Cheng Ling touched one casually, and it felt cold to the touch. It didn't look like trees, but like metal objects.
He was surprised in his heart and searched the golden page memory, but couldn't find any records. Could it be some mutated tree species? This place is really weird!
The big bosses also felt that something was wrong here, so they all cheered up and walked slowly towards the depths of the dense forest.
The speed of advancement is extremely slow, but it is moving forward after all. After walking like this for most of a day, there were faint sounds of thunder in the sky, which seemed like thunderclouds before a thunderstorm, but it didn't seem to be the case.
Suddenly, rows of soldiers wearing black armor appeared in front. These soldiers all held long spears in their hands, just like the soldiers in ancient military formations, advancing towards the crowd with neat steps.
Everyone was surprised that there was no sign of life on these soldiers, and they could not feel the presence of breath at the same time. It was as if they appeared out of thin air. They could not even be noticed by their consciousness and could only be seen with their eyes.
This makes them very uncomfortable. After the monks have spiritual consciousness, any living thing can be captured. Where can these soldiers not feel a trace of breath and vitality? Are they not living creatures? What is that? puppet?
But before they could react, the soldiers rushed over at extremely fast speeds. When they were ten feet away from everyone, the thunder in the sky became more intense. The soldiers seemed to shout together, pointing their spears at the people in the field, and thrust forward with all their strength!
A strange thing happened. The spear head was more than twenty meters away from the nearest monk. Originally, there was no fear of being stabbed. But amidst the bursts of thunder, a bolt of lightning seemed to emerge from the front of the spear, like a laser, shooting towards the monks!
"Ah~!"
"The power of thunder and lightning is so powerful that my whole body starts to feel numb!"
"Damn it, these soldiers would attack like this, how careless! This
The lightning stung me so hard that I couldn't move at all! "
"Get out of the way, these thunder and lightning are too dense, how many soldiers are there!"
There was a lot of shouting and a lot of excitement!
Those monks who rushed at the front were quick to react and dodge in time. If they reacted a little too slowly, they were struck by lightning. Some of their hands and feet were numb, and some were directly hit to a blackened state. Their eyes, ears, mouth and nose were filled with lightning. A puff of white smoke came out and he fell straight down.
Cheng Ling looked at the monks who were burnt black by the electricity. The experience of being struck by lightning flashed through his mind like lightning. Unexpectedly, he stepped out of the Xuankong Step and retreated quickly at a speed that was difficult to detect with the naked eye. After arriving behind Jian Yinghao and Xie Feng, he said in a trembling voice: "Brother Jian, Brother Xie Feng, you must protect me!"
Is this...is this...the same Cheng Ling I know?
Jian Yinghao and Xie Feng's brains almost crashed. They turned their heads in disbelief and looked at Cheng Ling who was holding on to their clothes tightly and dared not let go. Their minds went blank. After a long time, Jian Yinghao asked: "Brother Cheng, what's going on? Are those soldiers scary? Why are you so scared?"
Xie Feng was also dumbfounded and asked in disbelief: "Brother Cheng, what is going on?"
Cheng Ling's face turned bitter and he said awkwardly: "It's okay, it's okay! This is just a shadow in my heart. Don't worry about it. Just protect me with all your strength. Don't leave!"
Psychological shadow? what's the situation?
Zhang Hu, Song Yingjie, Xiao Changtian and others all looked at him in surprise. Is this still the leader of our Wuxiang Sword Sect? Is he still the domineering Cheng Ling from before? Could it be that he was possessed by a ghost?
Liu Qingyan was also confused, but she felt distressed when she saw Cheng Ling's pale face. She came to him and asked, "What's going on? Have you been here before?"
Cheng Ling smiled bitterly and said, "No, it's really just a shadow in my heart. I always feel that these thunder and lightning are unusual. Qingyan, go and see how many thunder soldiers there are?"
Liu Qingyan gave a wry smile, floated up, and carefully checked the number of Lei soldiers.
Cheng Ling calmed down now and secretly cursed himself for being too embarrassed. Just when I saw the thunder and lightning fired by those thunder soldiers, I felt a creepy feeling, and I wanted to run away as a conditioned reflex. He also wondered why he was frightened by these thunder soldiers when even the ninth level thunder tribulation in the Mahayana period was not that terrifying.
Liu Qingyan observed a little, then landed and said: "There are about two thousand soldiers, forming a square formation, with fifty people in each row, and there are ten rows in total. The numbers on the front, left, and back are the same, and they are arranged very neatly, like a battle array." Formation!"
Cheng Ling's mind flashed and he asked again: "What's the situation ahead?"
"The monks from the eight major sects and families are blocking the front, but the thunder and lightning are too dense and the effect seems to be insignificant. Many monks have been injured in the alchemy weapon formation, and dozens of monks have died! Cheng Ling, what are these? What? Why can’t I feel any vitality or breath at all?”
"I don't know either. Protect me. Go and have a look. Don't let lightning hit me!"
Everyone was confused, but seeing his strange behavior, he seemed to really know who those soldiers were. Liu Qingyan's heart moved, she raised her hand and said to the monks of the Wuxiang Sword Sect: "Everyone forms a circle and protects the sect master within the circle. Remember to block the thunder and lightning with all your strength!"
Everyone agreed, immediately formed two circles around Cheng Ling, and slowly pushed forward!
