Chapter 196 Return to the Fallen Immortal Realm
Zhou Qingang explained in a stammering voice: "With the price trend of Lingwu Grass at that time, who could resist? Word spread quickly, and among the many islands guarding Congyun Sea, there were few who weren't speculating on it."
"If I were to be different, it would be easy for me to be exposed."
“Who knew its price would collapse so quickly…”
Then, as if realizing something, he looked at the face on the broken stone suspiciously and said, "Boss, you're not going to be fired too, are you?"
The human face avoided answering and scolded: "Stop talking nonsense, how much do you want!"
Zhou Qingang hesitated for a moment and whispered, "One hundred thousand..."
"One hundred thousand?!" The human-faced voice suddenly rose several pitches.
"No! Funds are tight right now. You guys have been lurking for so long but have not achieved any real results. How can I ask for funding from above?" The human face refused without hesitation.
Seeing this, Zhou Qingang said quickly, "There are results! There are results! I have almost deciphered the outer structure of the Tianyuan Huasheng Array. In another seven or eight years at most, we will be able to completely crack the core of the array."
"He Zhenghao also suffered heavy losses this time. I applied for these 100,000 contribution points because I wanted to take this opportunity to deepen my relationship with him."
"This person is proficient in formations and has participated in the arrangement of the island protection formation. He is not cunning and with his help, we will definitely be able to master the formation thoroughly soon."
The man's expression eased slightly after hearing this.
After a moment's silence, he slowly said, "In that case, please send me the deciphered array data first."
Zhou Qingang nodded, placed his palms on the broken stone again, and closed his eyes slightly.
The khaki light kept flickering, and after a while, he finally released his hands.
He seemed to be extremely exhausted and his face turned extremely pale.
The person's face was expressionless, as if verifying the authenticity of the data.
"Well, well done." After a while, the human face nodded.
"However, one hundred thousand is indeed too much. How about fifty thousand!" The human face suddenly changed the subject.
Zhou Qingang's face turned bitter: "Boss, fifty thousand is too little! Seventy thousand, or sixty thousand will be fine too!"
The human face ignored him completely: "Fifty top-grade spirit stones, pick them up at the old place in a month."
"That's it!"
Before he finished speaking, the light and shadow on the broken stone disappeared and it turned into an ordinary stone again.
Zhou Qingang had a dark face and slapped the broken stone into pieces.
After changing back to his original appearance, he returned to Tai'an Island in silence.
He stayed obediently in the island protection formation, and there was no sign at all that he was a hidden spy.
"It seems that in addition to Zhou Qingang, there are many people who have infiltrated just through his superiors."
"However, the spies on this line should not hold very high positions in the alliance, and their current mission level is just to obtain the island protection formation."
"In addition, it seems that the way they communicate with each other has to be rearranged every time they make contact. Although it is a bit troublesome, the one-way communication reduces the risk of being wiped out at once."
Seeing that Zhou Qingang had also gone into hiding again and no longer made any other moves, Li Fan withdrew his attention and thought about how to maximize the benefits of this matter.
"In addition to the method that can deceive the White Jade Questioning Platform, Zhou Qingang's method of changing his appearance is also extremely useful to me."
"It's best to get these two methods, then report them and earn merit."
"Unfortunately, up to now, the legendary soul-searching method has not been found."
The Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance seemed to have extremely strict control over this law. Even with Li Fan's current level of authority, he was unable to find any relevant information.
"I don't know if there is any chance in that Falling Fairyland."
Not long ago, Li Fan had an inexplicable feeling that he was able to enter the Meteorite Fairyland again.
It's just that at that time I was busy doing the meritorious mission of hunting down defectors, and I never entered again.
Now that he finally had some free time, Li Fan began to think about exploring the Meteorite Fairyland again.
At this moment, the ceremony was arranged again.
"Fusheng Xuanhuang Tianzun!"
As the last sentence of the formula was silently recited, countless noisy and trivial sounds came into my ears.
Li Fan entered the Meteorite Fairyland again.
"Junior brother? Junior brother?"
When Li Fan saw the scene around him clearly, his heart sank slightly.
"Junior brother, what are you thinking about? Why have you been in a daze for so long?"
A monk wearing a purple and white Taoist robe with a purple lightning mark engraved between his eyebrows asked.
Li Fan was no stranger to this person. He was Zhang Qianmo, whom he met the last time he entered the Meteorite Fairyland.
"Why are we here again?" Many question marks flashed through Li Fan's mind.
According to Chen Ying's introduction, every time you enter the Meteorite Fairyland, you should appear randomly in different places.
Why is the location where I log in the second time exactly the same as the last time?
Even the timing was accurate.
Is there any special reason?
Thinking of the peculiarity of having two lives in this Fallen Fairyland, a name suddenly emerged in Li Fan's mind.
"Could it be that it's because of the Xuan Huang Heart Refining Mantra again?"
Li Fan guessed this subconsciously.
"Last time, I revealed my spiritual incarnation, but I was no match for Zhang Qianmo and was killed by him."
"If I defeat him this time, will the result be different?"
"However, this Senior Brother Zhang is not so easy to deal with."
"Or maybe, if he doesn't discover the true self under Li Chen's body..."
In an instant, several thoughts came to Li Fan's mind.
However, he did not forget to reply to the senior brother in front of him who seemed a little cynical.
Thinking back to what will happen next, Li Fan's thoughts raced: "Uh, Senior Brother, I don't know why I suddenly feel uneasy. It seems that this trip to get the longevity fruit will not be so smooth."
Zhang Qianmo was slightly stunned. Instead of just laughing it off, he actually took it very seriously.
He pinched his right hand slightly, and purple clouds seemed to float in his eyes.
"Huh?" After a moment, Zhang Qianmo's expression became solemn.
"Junior brother, your premonition is correct. This Ningyuan City is indeed a little weird!"
"Really?" Li Fan looked very surprised. "So what should we do next, Senior Brother?"
Zhang Qianmo thought for a moment and said, "The hexagram shows that there is a slight risk, but there is no danger to life."
"The longevity fruit must be obtained. If I return to the sect to ask for reinforcements without even making a personal visit to Ningyuan City, won't I be ridiculed by my fellow sect members?"
"Why don't you and I sneak into the city first and find out the truth first."
Li Fan had no objection: "Brother, you are right!"
Zhang Qianmo didn't know what kind of magic he was using, the lightning mark on his forehead gradually faded away, and his aura was completely restrained.
Looking at this scene, as if by instinct, Li Fan also concealed his aura completely.
"It turns out to be the breath-retaining method in Zixiao Yulei Zhen Jue..."
As if controlling a character in a game, Li Fan was now able to use Li Chen's various martial arts techniques, but he did not know much about the techniques themselves.
