Old Man Potian's sudden "Okay" made the hall fall into silence.
Mo Wuhen and Xiao Dan stood silently and did not speak. At this time, their expressions were quite calm. After all, from their understanding, it would not be surprising for anything to happen to their master.
Mo Ziyuan was obviously a little surprised. Who are these people in front of him? They are monks at the peak of Nascent Soul. In the past two years, he has stayed in Yaowang Valley to practice with Yao Puzi and Yaofu, so he naturally knows what the concept of peak Nascent Soul is.
I didn’t expect that after two years of not seeing each other, the sect master’s prestige had reached such an extent?
You must know that even the geniuses in Yaowang Valley came to participate in the trial because of the name of Old Man Duotian. It was only with less erysipelas and mutated poisonous spirit roots that they were able to break through the seventh level by chance, and compared with The geniuses of Yaowang Valley who came with him all stopped at the sixth level as before.
Turning his gaze to Zhang Xiaosheng again, Mo Ziyuan guessed in his mind:
What state is the sect leader in now?
Silver Moon Fox's eyes showed approval, thinking in his heart, it seems that human monks still have great wisdom.
"This...Senior Potian, what are you talking about?"
Zhang Xiaosheng had thought about trying to win over these three world-renowned bosses before he came, but he didn't know what conditions he should use to persuade others.
After Li Lingfei appeared and took away the Sky-breaking Formation, Zhang Xiaosheng finally made up his mind to recruit, but he still felt unsure. After all, it was impossible for Tianji Pavilion and other first-class top sects not to have recruited such three people, but they They have never taken refuge in any sect, so they must not be tempted by ordinary conditions.
Although the Five Elements Sect has greatly increased in strength now, and has the help of the Hengduan Mountains, Zhang Xiaosheng does not feel that he is stronger than Tianji Pavilion and others. Not to mention high-end combat power, even the sect's own foundation is far from enough.
But after listening to Po Tian slowly talking about the plan that the three brothers had been preparing for many years, Zhang Xiaosheng finally felt a little sure in his heart. The more outstanding people are, the stronger their expectations for breakthroughs. As long as he masters this world-breaking ascension. Secret, then there is no fear of these three people agreeing.
But now it is definitely not possible to tell such a confidential matter, so Zhang Xiaosheng is thinking about how to win the three people into the Five Elements Sect first, and then tell the secret after their reputation reaches a certain level. This is considered safe.
But Potian's words to end his life for the rest of his life disrupted his wishful thinking. Once the three of them's thousand-year plan was shattered, if they still had the ambition to take back the Potian Formation, then they still had something to say, but if they had If I don't give up, if I don't try to dissuade him, it will be even more difficult to convince the three big bosses once the deal is done.
So Zhang Xiaosheng did not care about being abrupt, and directly invited the three people to be the guest elders of the Five Elements Sect, and let the three big bosses directly join the Five Elements Sect. Not to mention that Zhang Xiaosheng is only at the seventh level of Yuanying, even if he is also at the peak of Yuanying, so to speak Not appropriate either.
Elder Keqing is relatively comfortable and will not be restricted too much, so in Zhang Xiaosheng's view, if such a hasty proposal is made, even if the three bosses disagree, they will not resist too much.
However, what he never expected was that Potian agreed immediately, and the expressions of Hentian and Duotian were extremely dull, which was no surprise, so Zhang Xiaosheng couldn't help but ask again after being stunned for a while.
"Of course I agreed to become the guest elder of your sect. Could it be that Sect Leader Zhang regretted it?" Potian smiled slightly and asked.
"It's natural for me to have three seniors from the Five Elements Sect sitting in the formation."
The news just now was indeed too shocking. What was painstakingly planned turned into reality without any warning. Anyone would be shocked. But after this short buffer, Zhang Xiaosheng has gradually calmed down.
After sneaking into the system space for a moment, he checked the reputation values of the next three people. Old Man Potian's reputation had reached the peak of friendship and was about to break through to respect, while the reputation of the other two was slightly worse.
Zhang Xiaosheng finally calmed down completely. Looking at the situation, these three bosses must have had a plan in advance, otherwise the other two would not be so calm. Even the previous words were deliberately guided so that he could take the initiative.
Compared with these old monsters who have lived for thousands of years, I am still a bit young.
After thinking about the whole story, more information suddenly became clear. If Potian and others hadn't already planned it, how could they reveal all the plans of the three brothers for thousands of years?
"To be honest with the three seniors, although the Five Elements Sect has the help of the Hengduan Mountains, its true foundation is not strong. Although it is developing rapidly, it may not meet the expectations of the three seniors, so I will inform you in advance. I just don't know the three seniors. What are the requirements for seniors to serve as guest ministers of the Five Elements Sect?" Seeing that Potian and the others did not answer, Zhang Xiaosheng asked proactively.
With the current strength of the Five Elements Sect, if we leave aside the Hengduan Mountains, it will naturally not be able to accommodate such three great gods. Even if we add the seven beasts of the Hengduan Mountains, it will be very difficult.
After all, it is not easy for monsters to practice with the people of the sect for a long time, so the seven beasts cannot and will not always guard Zhang Xiaosheng. It is inevitable for these three to return to the sect first after serving as guests of the sect. Zhang Xiaosheng couldn't guarantee whether he would change his mind after seeing the true strength of the Five Elements Sect.
Moreover, Potian and the other two people obviously have a cooperative attitude, rather than a surrender attitude, so it is best to talk everything up front to avoid everyone being unhappy later.
A hint of approval flashed in Potian's eyes. This boy was young, had a bright future, and was so insightful into the world. It seemed that the choice made by the three of them was somewhat hopeful.
In the past ten days, Zhang Xiaosheng has been cultivating, and although Potian and the other three have been recovering from their injuries, they have not been idle. The three brothers have continued to send messages to discuss their funeral arrangements.
Originally, they thought that with their strength, they did not need to seek refuge with other sects. If the sect was not strong enough, it would not be able to help them. If it was strong enough, they would be afraid that if the secret was discovered, nothing would happen to them.
That's why we use this method similar to raising hopes to select suitable people.
It was only after Li Lingfei's incident that they realized how important it was to rely on big forces behind them. Other sects didn't know the value of the secrets in their hands, so they didn't want to steal them just to increase their reputation, but Li Lingfei knew it, so in They intercepted when they were about to gain something.
But if they can't beat it, they can't beat it, and they have no good solution.
Of course, how could a thousand years of planning be given up so easily, so the three brothers discussed it over and over these days before deciding that they could not leave this relationship with Zhang Xiaosheng behind.
Zhang Xiaosheng is able to use the Five Elements Coexistence, and is even more familiar with it than Old Man Potian. This is their greatest hope. Only in this way can they better control the Potian Formation.
Of course, the second reason is that Zhang Xiaosheng is not that powerful today, at least not as powerful as Li Lingfei. Although the Hengduan Mountains are equally prestigious, his own strength is always his biggest limitation, so there is no need to be too afraid when getting along with him.
Finally, Potian and the others saw the potential of the Five Elements Sect, or Zhang Xiaosheng.
For a sect leader at the seventh level of Nascent Soul, there would probably be no more masters in the sect, but the attitude of the Hengduan Mountains was very interesting, so they concluded that Zhang Xiaosheng must have some secrets worthy of being followed by the seven beasts of the Hengduan Mountains.
Of course, the three Potian people did not want to find out this possible secret, but because they felt that after the three of them joined, they could also use the power of the Five Elements Sect to find Li Lingfei and regain the Potian Formation Disk.
After being entangled by many factors, they decided to "take refuge" in Zhang Xiaosheng!
Hearing what Zhang Xiaosheng said at this time, Potian understood that Zhang Xiaosheng already knew their "sincerity" and purpose. However, Zhang Xiaosheng did not worry about gains and losses. Instead, he directly asked them to make conditions. This strong confidence made him confident in the choice of the three of them. A bit more promising again.
Thinking of this, Potian also became serious and said:
"Since the three of us brothers serve as guest ministers of the sect, we will naturally bear all the guest minister's obligations. Even if we are beyond our ability to handle matters that are beyond our ability, we will definitely shoulder our responsibilities."
After talking about obligations, what is left are rights. There are no obligations without rights, and there are no rights without obligations. Zhang Xiaosheng nodded slightly and listened attentively.
"In terms of conditions, the three of us brothers really have two things that we hope that Sect Leader Zhang can agree to. The first one is that we hope to use the power of the sect to help us take back the Sky-breaking Formation. Now Sect Master Zhang also knows that the Breaking Heaven Formation Disk will be taken back. The importance of the Heavenly Formation Disk.”
Seeing that there was no obvious change in Zhang Xiaosheng's expression, Potian continued:
"The second thing is that on the premise that the first thing is completed, I hope that Sect Master Zhang can control the sky-breaking array to help us break through the world and ascend."
Seeing that Zhang Xiaosheng had a strange expression, Po Tian was afraid that he might misunderstand that his three brothers had taken things and stopped working, so he quickly explained:
"Of course, if the Sky-breaking Formation Disk is recovered, we will not ascend immediately. The three of us brothers all have less than a hundred years of life. If Sect Leader Zhang is willing to agree to these two conditions, we can stay in the sect for sixty years and consider it later. The matter of breaking through boundaries and ascending.”
Potian finished speaking in one breath, and when he saw Zhang Xiaosheng's expression changing, he thought he was weighing the gains and losses, and his heart also fluctuated a little.
Zhang Xiaosheng's sect is the most suitable place that the three brothers have considered over and over again, and Zhang Xiaosheng himself is also the person they need to help, so they are really worried that Zhang Xiaosheng will not accept it.
In fact, Potian and the others themselves are somewhat lacking in confidence, although it is something that any sect can only dream of if a peak Nascent Soul cultivator serves as a guest elder.
However, the average lifespan of a peak Nascent Soul cultivator can reach 1,800 years. Even if the time of cultivation is removed, the lifespan is usually more than a thousand years. In other words, he can serve as a guest minister for the sect for more than a thousand years. This is different from the sixty-year lifespan. Years are as different as clouds and mud.
A mere sixty years is just a few times of solitary confinement, and their first condition is to go to the Tiangong to regain the Sky-breaking Formation Disk.
They don't know the strength of Tiangong, but judging from Li Lingfei's strength alone, if two more beasts come from the Hengduan Mountains and the three of them, they can barely compete. If they want to get something back, they must use all seven beasts!
Such sacrifices only resulted in sixty years of waiting for them. This deal was not considered profitable by the Five Elements Sect.
"How profitable is this deal?" Zhang Xiaosheng thought to himself.
With a life span of less than a hundred years, he has to serve for sixty years. This is very sincere!
You must know that you have only been practicing for less than four years!
However, the danger of the Sky-Qing Sword in the Upper Realm has been less than ten years. Sixty years... you can afford to wait, but I can't!
"Sixty years... no!" Zhang Xiaosheng said with a slight frown.
The three Potians looked at each other and saw the disappointment in each other's eyes. For a moment, they didn't know what to say. They wanted to seek refuge with other sects... the risk was too great, and in the end they couldn't avoid Zhang Xiaosheng. They don't have time to look for someone who can stimulate the interaction of the five elements.
However, Zhang Xiaosheng’s voice continued to sound:
"It's too long, I think ten years is enough!"
"???"
Potian stared at Zhang Xiaosheng, seeing that he didn't seem to be joking, but he still couldn't help but said:
"Zhang Zongzhu is not entertaining me..."
"How dare you? The three seniors are extremely intelligent and have come up with such a compact design. It is unprecedented. But if you want to break through the world and ascend, your essence, energy, and spirit all need to be at their peak. If the three of them don't have enough lifespan to wait until sixty years later, The state is bound to decline, so how sure can we be of success?"
Potian and the other three were silent again. They didn't know what Zhang Xiaosheng said, but sixty years was already the limit of what they could give after discussion. The reason why they revealed their biggest trump card from the beginning was because they felt that if they could succeed, they could succeed, and if they couldn't, they could succeed. It's better to make plans in advance and don't force each other to delay the short lifespan.
"There's something I don't understand. Since senior can refine one piece of the Sky-breaking Formation Disk, why can't he refine the second one?" Zhang Xiaosheng suddenly changed the subject and asked.
"Alas, the three of us brothers have searched dangerous places all over the world, but we have only found enough materials to refine one piece. Therefore, the Potian Formation Disk is unique in the world." Potian sighed.
"Since Li Lingfei has taken away the Sky-breaking Formation Disk and knows its function, she will definitely take good care of it. I'm afraid it won't be easy to take it away, but she said before that it would be useful to me, so no matter how strong Yun Gong is, this matter still remains. There is room for maneuver, so the three seniors don’t have to worry about this.”
"Sixty years is not realistic, so I said it only takes ten years. Within ten years, Zhang will definitely give an explanation to the three of them! But Zhang also has a condition. In these ten years, the three seniors must obey absolutely .”
"Of course, Zhang will not do anything that violates moral principles, nor will he force the three seniors to do it, how about that?"
Ten years... doesn't seem impossible!
Even if they don't get what they want in ten years, there is still time left for them. Compared with the previous sixty years of one-off transactions, this is more flexible.
As for unconditional obedience, Potian and the other three didn't care much about it at this time. They didn't get along with Zhang Xiaosheng much, but they could see that he wasn't that domineering character. Since they wanted to "take refuge" in others, they should be more magnanimous.
Thinking of this, Hentian and Duotian nodded secretly towards Potian, while Potian said to Zhang Xiaosheng:
"Since Sect Master Zhang is confident, within ten years, the three of us brothers will be dispatched by Sect Master Zhang!"
"Haha, I don't want to be sent to you. Heaven is ruthless and people are kind. The three seniors and I, the Five Elements Sect, are just helping each other!" Zhang Xiaosheng was overjoyed. This deal is really worth it!
The three Potian people also breathed a sigh of relief at the same time. The three of them were able to achieve such an achievement because they were never afraid of difficulties, but were afraid of not having a clear goal. Now that the agreement has been made, the next step is to move forward towards the goal.
Even though I have failed before, it is better than starting all over again.
Ten years, so worth it!
