"It would be wonderful if you were willing to ask my Lingxiang Sect for help."
However, Zhou is very interested in the treasures you possess and wants you to use them for a transaction.
"I just don't know, fellow Daoist, whether you intend to trade me the corpse of the White Tiger leader or the corpse of the Demon King?"
Sect Leader Zhou said with a smile.
"The corpses of the White Tiger leader and the Demon King are both treasures, and they are of great use to both of us."
If you expect me to trade such treasures for merely helping me build a city, I'm being taken advantage of, and you understand that too."
Lin Xiaofei said calmly.
"Haha, fellow Daoist is absolutely right."
Indeed, helping you build a city is a very simple matter for my Lingxiang Sect.
It's really inappropriate to ask you to trade the corpse of a demon king for the corpse of a fifth-tier demon king.
Oh, right, there's one more thing that you might not know yet.
Ever since my clan elder reported your glorious achievements to me, I have sent people to quickly investigate your background and learned that you came from a remote place.
I also know that your parents and younger brother live in a small town.
As you continued your cultivation journey, you also made the acquaintance of a younger brother and sister, Zhao Zichuan and Bai Qingqing, who both cultivated within my Lingxiang Sect.
If your relatives knew about your current success, they would surely be very happy.
With your current achievements, your fame will resound throughout the entire cultivation world in less than three days.
Your parents, in particular, will be even happier once they know about your fame.
Of course, without your consent, I have already dispatched an elder of my sect at the Nascent Soul stage to the place where you were born to bring your parents and younger brother over.
I made this decision on my own initiative, and I hope my fellow Daoist will not blame me.
"Sect Leader Zhou, you investigated me without my permission and disturbed my parents, which has indeed made me a little angry."
However, as long as you haven't done anything excessive, I have nothing to blame you for.
Lin Xiaofei frowned slightly and said calmly.
"That's good.
The reason I did this is not only to make friends with you, fellow Daoist, but also to make a deal with you.
I hope you can bring out the corpse of that fifth-tier demon king, or the corpse of that demon king, and make a deal with it.
These two corpses are both priceless treasures, and I'm really envious of them. If I can't get them, I'll probably have a hard time finding peace of mind for a long time.
As for the precious treasures I have to offer, you have seen them, and none of them seem to meet your standards. This pains me greatly!
Fellow Daoist Black God, I truly desire the corpses of the White Tiger Demon King and the Demon King. I hope you can offer them in exchange.
"Just name your conditions, and I'll do my best to make it happen."
Sect Leader Zhou spoke eloquently.
"Sect Leader Zhou, you are quick-witted and sincere. Now that you've put it this way, it would indeed be inappropriate for me not to back down."
"Alright then, I'll keep the corpse of the fifth-tier demon king for myself, so I won't make a deal with you. But I can make a deal with the corpse of the demon king."
As he spoke, Lin Xiaofei reached out and patted the storage bag at his waist.
Suddenly, the demon king's corpse, broken in two, appeared in the air and landed on the ground.
The pitch-black corpse, emanating a dense demonic aura, soared into the sky.
"Such dense demonic energy!"
"This corpse still exudes an astonishing aura; it truly lives up to its reputation as the corpse of a demon king."
Hua Baiwan, Song Qianqiu, and the others standing to the side looked at the pitch-black corpse with a hint of surprise in their eyes and exclaimed in astonishment.
The black demonic energy emanating from the surface of the Demon King's corpse spread rapidly.
Sizzle! Sizzle! Sizzle!
The grass on the ground and the surrounding trees were shrouded in a demonic aura, and in an instant, they sizzled and withered rapidly.
As Sect Leader Zhou stared at the Demon King's corpse before him, a sense of awe welled up within him.
The corpse, broken in two, exuded a dense demonic aura, as if telling the story of its former power.
Sect Leader Zhou looked at the Demon King's corpse, nodded, and exclaimed in admiration:
This is the corpse of a demon king at the peak of the early stage of the Fusion Realm, just one step away from entering the middle stage of the Fusion Realm.
Its physical strength is comparable to that of a top-grade magic weapon in the Nascent Soul stage, which is truly rare.
However, this demon king's body was cut in two, which must have been done by your magical artifact. Your strength is truly formidable!
His gaze was fixed on the severed parts of the Demon King's corpse, as if through the cut marks he could see a brutal and thrilling battle.
Lin Xiaofei smiled slightly and said modestly:
"Sect Leader Zhou, you flatter me. This was all thanks to my magic weapon, which enabled me to slay this demon so easily."
Although his tone was calm, he was still very confident in his abilities.
Sect Leader Zhou nodded, a hint of appreciation flashing in his eyes, and continued:
Fellow Daoist is too modest.
You are so young, yet you possess formidable strength and a powerful magical artifact; it is truly enviable.
If my estimation is correct, you will certainly achieve even greater success on your future path of cultivation.
Lin Xiaofei smiled.
He knew that his current strength was thanks to the spiritual herbs he cultivated in the spatial bead.
Seeing that Lin Xiaofei remained silent, Sect Leader Zhou quickly said:
Fellow Daoist is willing to offer the Demon King's corpse in exchange for my services; that is truly wonderful.
"Just tell me your conditions."
His tone was urgent, and his eyes gleamed with excitement.
Clearly, the demon king's corpse held immense appeal for him.
Lin Xiaofei remained silent for a moment, seemingly deep in thought. Finally, he spoke:
Sect Master Zhou, besides requesting that you send a group of formation masters and builders to help me construct the city, I need 10 billion high-grade spirit stones.
In addition, I hope that my younger sister Bai Qingqing and younger brother Zhao Zichuan can leave your sect and come to my city.
I hope you will hand them over to me, provided that they voluntarily leave the Lingxiang Sect.
Also, I quite like your Silver Moon warship.
He paused, then continued:
"The city you help me build also needs a high-level fifth-grade array set up on it, capable of defending against attacks from even a Nascent Soul stage cultivator. What do you think?"
Sect Leader Zhou nodded and said,
No problem, I accept all your conditions.
In addition, I will give you some extra cultivation resources to help you improve your strength.
I promise that I will complete the construction of the city and set up the fifth-grade high-level array for you within three years.
His response was swift and decisive, demonstrating his sincerity and determination.
Zhou Zongzhu understood that this transaction was beneficial to both parties, and he was willing to provide more guarantees and support.
Lin Xiaofei nodded in satisfaction and said with a smile:
"Thank you for your generosity, Lord Zhou."
Sect Leader Zhou laughed heartily and said:
No need to be so polite, fellow Daoist, we are all friends.
Besides, the corpse of this demon king is a treasure that appears only once every million years.
This time I'll get the Demon King's corpse, which will be of great use to me.
"I should be thanking you, fellow Daoist."
The two reached an agreement and the deal was completed.
Lin Xiaofei obtained the resources and help he needed, and Sect Master Zhou also obtained a precious demon king's corpse.
