The roar had barely left his lips when the old turtle was once again enveloped in a curse.
It originally thought that Lu Tao must have consumed a lot of energy to unleash such a terrifying curse, and that the next curse would require at least some time to prepare.
Who knew it would appear so quickly?
"Lu Tao, you'll die a horrible death!"
Old Turtle couldn't help but curse inwardly.
At that moment, Old Turtle felt a sense of despair and almost gave up.
But it soon discovered that this curse was far, far weaker than the last one.
Therefore, Old Turtle mustered his spirits and did his best to resist the curse.
puff!
When the old turtle was angered, even though the curse was small, its power was also greatly weakened.
Therefore, in the blink of an eye, its barely recovered soul was devoured by the curse once again.
The already dilapidated altar continued to crack and turn into huge rocks.
His soul sea had long since dried up.
As for the physical body and dantian, they were already in a terrible state after being burned, and now, under the curse, they are even more injured.
that's all.
A few breaths later, the power of the curse disappeared, and the old turtle once again fell into a near-death state, his soul fading into silence.
"Ancestor!!!"
The eight god-kings who rushed over were overcome with grief upon seeing their ancestor in such a state.
The ancestor, whom they had barely managed to save, was on the verge of death once again. It seemed that Lu Tao was determined to kill his ancestor.
This made them extremely resentful and fearful.
"Lu Tao, we are determined to kill you!"
A black tortoise couldn't help but roar to the sky.
Another god-king urged, "Quickly, don't hold back on the other true dragon bloodlines, use them all to heal the ancestor."
The eight God-Kings hurriedly opened the ancestor's spatial treasures, retrieved the True Dragon Bloodline of the God-King level, and spared no effort to revive the ancestor by sacrificing their own essence and blood.
...
"Good! Good! Good!"
In the distance, in the small world, Lu Tao had already set up his telescope, and Yao Yao was watching the old turtle being cursed.
Seeing that Old Turtle was on the verge of death, everyone else felt very relieved, and He Zongming was so excited that he couldn't help but shout "Good!" three times.
He harbored deep resentment towards the black tortoise that had once devised a plan to curse his great-grandson, and wished he could kill it immediately.
In fact.
He Wenjing, Xia Qing, He Yuanshuang, and the others were the same.
Their own baby had just been born and was going through a tribulation when he experienced such a terrifying curse. How could they not hate him?
Fortunately, the curse was weakened by the distance between realms; otherwise, it's hard to say whether it would have had any negative impact on the child.
"Unfortunately, we couldn't kill it completely; it still has a sliver of life left."
Lu Tao felt somewhat regretful.
The Xuan Turtle Clan has an incredibly long lifespan; even with repeated curses, they couldn't kill the Turtle Elder completely.
However, it will be extremely difficult for Old Man Turtle to recover.
Therefore, Lu Tao didn't pay much attention to this matter.
Looking at the old turtle's shell, Lu Tao inexplicably hoped that the old turtle's injuries would heal somewhat, and ideally, that the shell would be completely restored so that he could retrieve it later.
"Boss, the deal is done."
At this moment, Xiaotianquan, who had been engrossed in his conversation with Xiong Bo, suddenly spoke up, saying, "I sold the information to Tianyu Pavilion, but the price wasn't high, only worth three items of the rules. I'll go get it later."
"That's already pretty good. After all, the secret of the Black Cat Clan was only worth about twenty items of the Rule."
Lu Tao was quite satisfied.
The original purpose of selling this information to Tianyu Pavilion was not to actually trade for anything of value, but mainly to use Tianyu Pavilion to spread the word to the Black Cat Clan.
"By the way, boss, during our previous conversation, Tianyu Pavilion wanted to buy our Immortal Sect's method for forging a true dragon, but I refused it outright."
The Celestial Hound then mentioned another matter, adding, "After being rejected, Xiong Bo wanted our Immortal Sect to help them forge some true dragons, saying the price was negotiable, but I rejected that as well."
"Okay, from now on, you can just refuse these kinds of things."
Lu Tao nodded, satisfied with how the Celestial Dog had been handled.
It's obvious.
Through the Black Cat Clan's revelation, Tianyu Pavilion also learned the true identity of the previous Demon Tiger, recalled the rumors in the lower realm, and became very interested in Lu Tao's method of forging a true dragon.
Even though they knew that the Immortal Sect would never sell them such methods, they still couldn't help but ask about the price.
Then, Lu Tao thought for a moment and said, "Tell Xiong Bo that it's impossible to create a true dragon for them, but if there are enough rules-related items, we can sell them a few portions of the true dragon bloodline."
"good."
The Celestial Hound continued to communicate with Xiong Bo, while also inquiring about the progress of collecting cultivation techniques.
Upon learning that the cultivation techniques they had collected were still far from the thousand types Lu Tao had requested, they had no choice but to give up.
There are three thousand great paths, corresponding to three thousand different realms.
There may seem to be only three thousand, but there are countless martial arts techniques and skills in the world. However, many of these techniques and skills are of the same type, such as swordsmanship, saber techniques, movement techniques, and the Five Elements.
Those extremely unorthodox paths have corresponding cultivation methods and martial arts techniques that are very rare.
It is so rare that even with the capabilities of Tianyu Pavilion, it would be difficult to collect too many in a short period of time.
"It seems I need to think of other ways to collect cultivation techniques."
Lu Tao knew that if he put all his hopes for collecting cultivation techniques on Tianyu Pavilion, it would be a long time before he could gather all three thousand domains.
He had to think of another way.
Thinking this, Lu Tao took out the Soul-Capturing Pearl and asked, "Shan Yu, what forces in the Desolate Region of the God Realm can collect various cultivation techniques at the fastest speed?"
"Reporting to the master, besides Tianyu Pavilion, there are several other large merchant guilds in the desolate region, each with considerable influence, and each spanning dozens of states."
Dan Yu shared the information he had gleaned from the many memories he had merged with his master, and continued, "In addition, there are some relatively ancient sects in the desolate region. They have existed for at least tens of millions of years, and they must possess a considerable number of cultivation techniques."
Lu Tao nodded and instructed, "Yes, record the information of these chambers of commerce and sects."
"Yes, Master!"
Dan Yu took the jade slip and began to record the information of the merchant guild and sect in detail on the jade slip.
At this moment.
Ji Rui, who was standing to the side, suddenly spoke up: "Sect Master, actually, the best way to obtain various cultivation techniques and martial arts skills faster, besides these merchant guilds and sects, is to offer bounties!"
"The sect leader has already obtained the common types of martial arts techniques. What is lacking now are the rarer or uncommon ones. Even the merchant guild and sect probably have very few of these types of martial arts techniques."
As one of the leaders of the Great Gan, Ji Rui has a different perspective on things than ordinary people. He expressed his views, saying, "Moreover, these unorthodox martial arts techniques are generally of little value. Other forces rarely collect them. Such martial arts techniques are mostly in the hands of other beings. Only by offering a bounty can we lure them out from among the masses."
"Seventh Master is right, offering a bounty is the best solution!"
Upon hearing this, Lu Tao's eyes lit up, and he said with delight, "As the saying goes, having an elder in the family is like having a treasure. Seventh Master is truly knowledgeable; how come I never thought of such a method?"
Despite Lu Tao's formidable strength and astonishing methods, his experiences are vastly different from Ji Rui's.
Therefore, their thinking tends to be relatively fixed.
This is why Lu Tao consults with He Zongming, Feng Lin, Ji Rui, and others before making any decisions.
Even though he has a statue of a deity to pray to, he still likes to hear the opinions of these people.
Ji Rui smiled and said, "The sect leader's mind is entirely on developing the Immortal Sect, he just hasn't thought of this method yet."
This wasn't Ji Rui flattering him.
Lu Tao's bounty had already spread throughout the entire wasteland and was posted in major cities.
If Lu Tao saw it a few more times, he would surely be able to make the connection to this method.
However, recently, it has been the Howling Celestial Dog who has been in charge of various matters, and it has been the disciples who have been out buying cultivation techniques, dust-removing herbs, materials, and assassinating powerful figures from various races.
It's quite normal that Lu Tao, who had been in seclusion, hadn't thought of using a reward as a method.
Lu Tao nodded and smiled, "Perfect. Tianyu Pavilion is all over the Desolate Region. We can use their influence to offer bounties throughout the entire Desolate Region."
Lu Tao knew that the Immortal Sect alone could hardly offer rewards for cultivation techniques and martial arts throughout the entire desolate region, but the Heavenly Pavilion could.
Such actions will inevitably lead outsiders to speculate that he wants to collect all three thousand domains.
The bounty is for the entire wasteland and cannot be kept secret. Moreover, it is for various unorthodox martial arts techniques. Anyone with a discerning eye can guess the possibility.
but.
Now is definitely not the best time to offer a bounty.
We should at least allow the Immortal Sect to develop to a certain extent before offering a bounty.
Even if some unexpected events occur, the Immortal Sect's strength will be sufficient to handle them.
With a plan in place, Lu Tao felt much more at ease.
The urgency I felt before about not being able to gather all three thousand domains in a short time was gone.
Seeing that the sect leader had relaxed, everyone was very happy.
Then, the crowd began to discuss whether the Black Cat Clan would buy the news that Elder Turtle was seriously injured and on the verge of death, and whether they would dare to risk coming to attack and kill the Xuan Turtle Clan.
A day passed in discussion and waiting, but the Black Cat Clan did not appear, and Old Turtle had already awakened.
"It seems the Black Cat Clan is quite cautious."
Everyone felt somewhat disappointed.
The Black Cat Clan is now being targeted by other clans and is extremely cautious about everything, probably suspecting that the information from Tianyu Pavilion might be a trap.
"Let's go, let's leave Xuanzhou for now and head to a nearby prefecture."
Lu Tao had originally planned to take advantage of the Black Cat Clan's attack on the Xuan Turtle Clan to have the Immortal Sect kill all the Xuan Turtle Clan's Heavenly Gods and Divine Lords. However, since the Black Cat Clan did not appear, Lu Tao naturally abandoned this plan.
"Yes, boss!"
The Celestial Hound immediately instructed his disciple to take the small world away from Xuanzhou, intending to first make some purchases in nearby cities before seeking an opportunity to ambush and kill the powerful figures of various races.
However, after entering the city, the disciples of the Immortal Sect suddenly learned from other beings that the Cat Emperor Scripture of the Black Cat Clan was not created by the Cat Emperor himself, but was obtained from the Heavenly Change Forbidden Land!
