Seeing the two sides confronting each other and about to fight, Zheng Hua hurriedly stepped down to stop them: "Calm down, all three of you!"
"The real battle hasn't even begun yet, but they're already fighting among themselves..."
"If you tell anyone, it will go against the Ning family's reputation."
Zhou Zeshen and others also echoed.
After everyone's persuasion, Ning Zhuo, Ning Xiaohui and the mysterious Snow Soul restrained their breath and stopped for the time being.
When they sat down again, Ning Xiaohui and Ning Zhuo were already far apart from each other.
Zhou Zeshen smiled and bowed to the mysterious Snow Spirit: "I have not yet asked for this senior's name?"
The mysterious Snow Soul possessed the aura of a foundation-building cultivator. At this moment, he raised his head and said, "I am Ning Xie. When I was alive, I was the patriarch of the Ning family. I possessed a natural snow soul and an icy spirit. After I died in battle, I became a ghost cultivator. This time, I came out of the mountain precisely for your joint action."
Zhou Zeshen was puzzled: "Senior is a ghost cultivator who has established his foundation. It is difficult to change your cultivation. How can your soul enter the Immortal Palace?"
Ghost cultivator Ning Xie said, "That's not difficult. I can rely on Xiao Hui's soul and merge with her temporarily."
"Ning Xiaohui's soul will enter the Immortal Palace, and I can be taken in as well."
"However, if I show up to fight, I can only last for thirteen breaths at most. If I exceed this time limit, I will be expelled from the Lava Fairy Palace."
Zheng Jian spoke up at this time and confirmed: "We have already confirmed this situation."
He turned out to be an insider.
Zhou Zeshen's eyes darkened slightly.
He was able to see the big picture from the small details and keenly sensed that the Ning family and the Zheng family seemed to be closer than he expected.
On the surface, Zhou Zeshen cupped his hands, his face showing joy: "With the help of the seniors, and the use of our natural talents, our chances of winning will be greatly increased."
Ning Xie snorted coldly: "That's natural."
Ning Zhuo also snorted coldly: "With only thirteen breaths of time to attack, what can you do? Can you freeze the entire level?"
Ning Xie narrowed his eyes, looking extremely displeased: "Young man from the branch, you are right, I can freeze the surroundings and modify the battlefield. If you don't believe me, I will let you have a good taste of this feeling!"
Ning Zhuo chuckled: "Freeze your own people? If you die, will your brain die with you?"
"If you have the ability, freeze that mechanical monkey and the slave ghost puppet!"
"Oh, that's right."
"If you were enslaved by a puppet, it would be hilarious!"
"Bullshit!" Ning Xie was so angry that he yelled, "You little brat, you are so sharp-tongued! If you shout again, I will tear your mouth apart."
Ning Zhuo's face became serious, his eyes dark, "Who yelled at you?"
"What I pointed out is the biggest hidden danger! I am considering the overall situation, but you think I am just yelling at you?"
Ning Zhuo pointed at Ning Xie without hesitation and said, "My concern is very straightforward. Can we bring this ghost cultivator in?"
"Don't let him become a weapon against us!"
Ning Xie was so angry that his whole body was shaking, and his soul turned pale. Just as he was about to speak, an old voice came over: "On this point, this clan leader can guarantee it."
Everyone had different expressions.
Ning Xie immediately shut his mouth.
Then, the head of the Ning family came in. He stared at Ning Zhuo with a smile on his face and a cold gaze: "Ning Zhuo, you are very thoughtful."
"But you are still too young. You don't know the secrets of ghost cultivation, let alone the background of my Ning family!"
Ning Zhuo bowed his hands, his eyes calm and fearless as he looked at the Ning family head: "In this case, I can only have doubts."
Then, he changed the subject: "But I still don't recommend acting so quickly."
"We lack solid intelligence right now."
"We can wait for the spells to be improved and use the improved spells for reconnaissance."
"After all, they are just two mechanical puppets. Once we know their true nature, their chances of winning will be very low."
Zhou Zeshen exclaimed in his heart, "This is wonderful."
He didn't expect Ning Zhuo to be so tough! He actually confronted the Ning family's foundation-building elders, even the Ning family's head.
"How much cultivation has he achieved? He's only at the third level of Qi Refining. He's really courageous!" Zhou Zeshen even felt a little admiration in his heart.
Zheng Jian and Zhou Zhu also shared the same sentiment as him.
Zheng Hua thought to himself: "Ning Zhuo is young and hot-tempered. He actually confronted his own family leader in public."
"However, looking at his various actions, it is understandable."
"Now that he has become the master of the black market, his power has greatly increased, and he has achieved achievements that he has never achieved in his life. It is a period of expansion."
"If I were him, I would be even more arrogant than him."
"If this boy continues to develop, the Ning family will definitely have a second civil war in the future. We can provide him with strong financial support!"
Hearing Ning Zhuo's suggestion to continue the investigation, Zhou Zeshen thought for a moment and agreed, "Please forgive my rudeness, but I also think it would be better to continue the investigation."
"Intelligence is very important! Especially for a battle like ours, one more piece of intelligence may very likely affect the ultimate success or failure of the operation."
"Huh? Zhou Zeshen actually stands on Ning Zhuo's side so clearly?" Zheng Jian's heart was also stirred when he saw this scene.
In Huoshixian City, the four forces are competing with each other, and it is a very complicated competitive relationship.
Truly outstanding family members are very sensitive to the close relationships with other families.
“But it will take some time to complete.”
"In fact, our clan has already started to purchase and borrow relevant enlightenment diagrams from outsiders."
"However, even if one possesses the Enlightenment Diagram, it still tests the practitioner's comprehension. It is difficult for a cultivator with average comprehension to gain anything from the Enlightenment Diagram."
Ning Zhuo spread his hands: "Then we can wait."
"I believe that our team of reformers is full of talented people, and someone will figure it out, or we can wait until the three families have finished improving the spells. Once our investigation has yielded results, we can focus on tackling the problem, and that will give us a chance of success!"
"Speaking of the Enlightenment Diagram, I have two of them in my hands. Maybe I can contribute them and share them with everyone."
"Shut up!" Ning Xiaohui almost jumped up and down, "The Wufa Diagram was only lent to you by the family for your personal use. Why would you share it with outsiders?"
Ghost cultivator Ning Xie also said: "Young man from the Ning family branch, you know nothing about the family rules? You have no right to control these two enlightenment diagrams."
Ning Zhuo chuckled: "I just made a suggestion. It just so happens that you, the clan leader, are here too. What do you think?"
Read the error-free version at 69shuba! 6=9+shu_ba is the first to publish this novel.
The head of the Ning family suddenly felt as uncomfortable as if he had eaten a fly.
He is the head of the clan, and it is impossible for him to express his opinion like Ning Xiaohui.
And now he was facing people from the Zheng family and the Zhou family. Under the background of the three-family alliance, it was difficult for him to say no.
The current situation was like he was being held back by the junior Ning Zhuo and couldn't save himself.
For the first time, the Ning family head felt regretful and thought that he had made a rash appearance and was indeed somewhat ill-considered.
Zhou Zeshen suddenly smiled and said, "If the Ning family is willing to provide two enlightenment diagrams, I will suggest that our family also provide two diagrams and share them with the renovation team."
Zheng Jian opened his mouth to speak, but Zheng Hua had already spoken: "Okay! I can make the decision now. Take out the Zheng family's map of the steaming clouds on the top of the flames and the map of the fire-breathing furnace on the ground, and show them to everyone."
The head of the Ning family laughed and quickly said, "It's just a diagram of enlightenment. It's no problem for the Ning family to take it out."
"It's just that in a short period of time, even if you understand something, it will take a lot of practice and it will be difficult to use it in combat."
"It would be better to concentrate on special training, training cooperation, and developing tacit understanding, which is much more useful than comprehending spells."
"This battle must be fought as soon as possible!"
"I cannot explain the details, I can only tell you that this matter concerns the Jindan ancestors of our three families."
Everyone was suddenly shocked.
The Ning family leader is warning everyone in the arena: Don't simply consider the problem from the perspective of this battle. Because there are powerful off-field factors that force you to fight quickly!
Fighting is just a tool.
"Fighting is not the purpose, so what is the real purpose?" Ning Zhuo sighed.
He deliberately provoked, spied on and goaded others in order to find out more intelligence.
Anyway, the conflict between Ning Zhuo and the main branch of the Ning family has become so great that it cannot be reconciled, so Ning Zhuo no longer cares about superficial harmony.
The harvest is also very rich.
Not only did he gain a great deal of intelligence, he also got the opportunity to comprehend four new Dharma Enlightenment Diagrams!
The secret that the head of the Ning family revealed after being squeezed out - it was about the golden elixir, which was good news for Ning Zhuo.
When Ning Zhuo was reading history books, he often saw some cases, such as when two armies were fighting, the monarchs or ministers behind the scenes ignored the actual battle situation and blindly gave orders to the army, which eventually led to a disastrous defeat in the war.
Ning Zhuo thought these people were stupid at first.
But as he grew older, especially in recent days, he felt deeply the limitations of human beings and understood the "stupidity" of those people more deeply.
Is it stupid? Yes, it is stupid, but also smart, and it is also involuntary and unavoidable.
In fact, everyone has their own pressures and motivations, and everyone has their own desires and fears.
Various motives intertwined together, making the originally pure battle no longer pure.
Just like Ning Zhuo needed Yuan to win big or small victories, rather than big wins or crushing defeats, just like the hasty joint action of the three families this time, which came from the mysterious determination of the Jindan ancestors.
When I was young, I laughed at the mundaneness of the books I read, but when I read again, I became a member of the books.
The world in the book is beyond our body’s affairs, so cherish the vast meaning on a piece of paper!
Zhou Zeshen sighed: "From this point of view, we have no choice but to shoot the arrow on the string."
Ning Zhuo looked at Zheng Hua: "Since it was the intention of the three Jindan ancestors, no wonder Ning Xie was dispatched."
"If the Ning family is like this, the Zheng family and the Zhou family must have played some cards as well, right?"
Zheng Hua, the elder of the Zheng family, laughed and said, "I was just about to say that."
"One of our ancestors mistakenly entered the ghost market and lost half his life, but he also gained something."
"This technique is called the Ghost Warrior Divine Weapon Training Method. It can consume soul power, cut off part of the soul, and forge ghost weapons."
"After you have mastered it, you will have half of your own weapon. After that, when your soul enters the Immortal Palace, you will be able to obtain the corresponding mechanical parts in the first room at the beginning."
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone looked at Zheng Jian.
There were hook-shaped magical instruments floating around Zheng Jian. When his soul entered the Celestial Palace, there were also corresponding wooden hook parts floating around his body.
Zheng Jian quickly explained: "This is not a ghost warrior."
