The head of the Zhou family appeared: "Our family made its fortune with a spirit gathering array. As everyone knows, this array gave birth to a formation spirit."

"The spirits in the gathering spirit array can consume some of their own spirituality to cast spells and bless the soul."

"With this spell, the cultivator can automatically absorb external spiritual energy, automatically convert personal mana, and reduce the various costs of casting spells."

The Zheng family took out the training techniques of the Ghost Warriors, the Zhou family activated the Spirit Gathering Array, and the Ning family took out the Foundation Establishment Ghost Cultivator Ning Xie, who possessed the talents of Snow Soul and Ice Spirit!

Ning Zhuo was in a heavy mood.

These are the wealth of each family, all of which are big investments. Usually they are hidden away, but now they are being used.

Ning Zhuo thought of what the head of the Ning family said, "It is about the Golden Core Ancestor," and the actions of the three families became reasonable.

"Okay, you continue to discuss, we won't delay you." The head of the Zhou family waved his hand and left the secret room.

The head of the Ning family also followed.

Ning Xie was still floating in the air, with his arms folded, staring at Ning Zhuo with cold eyes.

Ning Zhuo seemed to be unable to feel anything and treated him as air, which made Ning Xie feel suffocated.

Zheng Hua continued, "These five jade slips record all the materials, spirit stones, and mechanical parts we have found."

"Because it is extremely difficult to bring items into the Lava Fairy Palace, these are the only supplies we can use in this battle."

Ning Xie of the Ning family is the greatest achievement of the three families' joint research on the Lava Fairy Palace in an attempt to bring in items.

In fact, each of the three families has ghost cultivators hidden away as part of their family heritage.

Only Ning Xie was able to succeed because he had talent, which formed a mysterious combination with Ning Xiaohui's talent.

Ning Zhuo placed the jade slip between his eyebrows, and after checking it, he felt even more solemn.

The contents of the jade slip were extremely detailed; the calculation of the spirit stones alone was very accurate.

It counted all the explorers and, assuming that everyone chose the spirit stone reward, it would determine the maximum number of spirit stones the entire exploration team could obtain.

If you don’t choose any of them, how many spirit stones will you have?

Among them, there are different stages such as 30%, 50%, 70%, and 90%, and the detailed number of spirit stones is calculated.

The same goes for the number of mechanical parts such as upper rings, small flying boxes, etc.

Using spirit stones, the materials that can be purchased in the maintenance room, the production time of each tool that can be used, all have extremely precise calculation results.

Not only that, there are more than a dozen mechanical creations in the jade slip, classified into different categories.

Zheng Hua explained at the right time: "These are all mechanical creations that the three of us have discussed and carefully selected."

"Their functions and powers are all described in detail, and the materials, spirit stones, etc. used to construct them are all calculated in detail."

"If you have any good ideas for mechanical creation, feel free to bring them up and we will discuss them further."

It is better to be clumsy and silent.

Zhou Zeshen looked at Ning Zhuo, not letting him go, smiling and saying earnestly, "Brother Ning, I'm sure you've noticed that most of these mechanical creations come from my sect, the Mud Flow Sect."

"The Mud Flow Sect is best at mechanisms to transform terrain, which is also the sect's main business."

"The drill rat is used to soften the mountain and drill a tunnel. The night bat is used to detect the terrain and draw a three-dimensional map. The white tiger ram is used to open large tunnels. The mud door hammer is used to break the boulders and consolidate the foundation."

"Brother Ning's talent for mechanical devices is well known. The mechanical devices you designed, the Fire Monkey and Fire Bamboo Snake, are also good at combat."

“So, your advice is very important!”

Ning Zhuo smiled faintly: "I will definitely try my best, but these mechanisms need to be carefully studied before I can express my opinion. This is a serious matter, and I dare not speak nonsense casually."

"Hahaha." Zhou Zeshen laughed, "Then I'll wait for Brother Ning's advice."

Zheng Hua continued: "Next, I will introduce to you several tactics that the three companies have prepared."

"The first one is the Zhou family battle formation."

…

After everyone finished the discussion, Ning Zhuo returned to his own single room.

Along the way, he frowned and looked solemn.

"The maintenance room, mature tactics, the foundation of the three families..." Ning Zhuo thought about it and recalled it in his heart, and felt more and more tremendous pressure.

What he had expected before was correct. The three companies jointly relied on the functions of the maintenance room.

But it’s not entirely correct.

Whether it was the major battle strategies jointly developed by the three parties or the background resources brought out by the three parties, they were almost all things he had not expected.

The secret of "it's about the Golden Core Ancestor" made him even more unable to guess what happened in the upper echelons.

"The three parties joining forces...have more strength in numbers." Ning Zhuo deeply felt the advantage of having more people.

Even if none of them made it to the list and received abundant spirit stone rewards, the rewards for clearing the level simply based on the number of people would already be a huge amount.

The three companies jointly integrated all resources, then made extremely detailed calculations, and on this basis, worked out the optimal ratio.

It can be said that they have fully tapped their combat potential.

Now, Ning Zhuo’s greatest blessing is that this exploration route for his soul to enter the Immortal Palace prohibits bringing any foreign objects into the palace.

This is a very significant protection for Ning Zhuo.

If they can really carry external objects, then the three major families will be able to burst out even more terrifying combat power!

Ning Zhuo took out the floating cloud handkerchief, found himself deep in the floating clouds, and then his soul entered the fairy palace.

Sun Lingtong had been waiting for him for a long time.

Ning Zhuo informed Sun Lingtong of the latest intelligence, and Sun Lingtong suddenly became serious: "The enemy is so powerful, it seems that we must let Qi Bai fight, so that we can have a chance of victory."

Ning Zhuo sighed: "It is indeed difficult to rely on Yuan Dasheng alone."

“But don’t be too radical.”

"If it really doesn't work, I won't take on the challenge this time."

"Be sure to be on guard against the Soul Devouring Sect's hidden moves."

Sun Lingtong nodded: "Don't worry, I know my limits!"

Sun Lingtong's soul returned to the body. Looking at Qi Bai's storage bag in front of him, his brows were furrowed, and his face was full of determination.

"For him, this goal is not only a great opportunity in life, but also a request from his mother. It is a task that he must complete!"

“This means so much to him!”

"It's easy for him to say that. Do you think I don't know? If I don't take over, the three companies will move forward together, which is more likely to arouse their suspicion."

"As his boss, if I don't support him now, when will I?"

Sun Lingtong's progress in cracking Qi Bai's storage bag was slow, but after accumulating strength day by day, she had reached the final stage.

"Time is limited, I need to take a little risk!"

As a member of the evil sect, Sun Lingtong never lacked the spirit of adventure. When he was in the Qi Refining Stage, he stole the treasures of the Foundation Establishment Stage. He was once caught for stealing and was imprisoned and tortured by the gang.

He does not have to take risks, but rather likes them. He enjoys making himself feel physically and mentally refreshed and happy through exciting activities such as stealing.

"Come on!" Sun Lingtong puffed up his cheeks, gathered all his strength, and cast a spell.

6◇9◇Book◇Bar

Not long after, Qi Bai's storage bag was opened, and a light black-gray smoke rose into the air.

Sun Lingtong was quick to act and extinguished the smoke before it drifted away! "Okay!"

"My estimation was correct. There are no other defensive measures. Hahahaha, I got the storage bag of a Jindan monk!"

Sun Lingtong checked immediately and found that Qi Bai’s storage bag was rich in supplies and priceless.

There are seven magical instruments that are not often used.

Cultivation resources are almost all closely related to soul cultivation.

Several unrelated materials were all of Jindan grade. It was not easy to sell such materials, and it required a suitable auction or trading person.

Therefore, all of them were piled up in Qi Bai's hands.

The most valuable things are some of Qi Bai’s daily necessities.

"These are all excellent fuels for cremating the Prajna Sutra." Sun Lingtong smiled happily.

Ning Zhuo had already passed on the relevant scriptures to Sun Lingtong.

Therefore, at the stage of Ning Zhuo's special training, Sun Lingtong was able to forge items with his own strength and add spirituality to Qi Bai.

Somewhere in the darkness, two will-o'-the-wisp lights suddenly lit up.

Looking closely, I found that the two ghost lights were actually the eyes of a monk.

Luo Shang!

A true disciple of the Soul-Devouring Sect, he shoulders the sect's important mission of finding the real murderer who killed Qi Bai and taking revenge.

He had already hidden in the Huoshi Immortal City without attracting other people's attention and had been keeping his identity hidden.

"The two Soul Devouring Sect disciples in the dungeon of the City Lord's Mansion are just bait and traps."

"Why has Han Ming been missing and out of contact?"

"Until now, she has not responded to my cryptic messages."

"Um?!"

At this time, Luo Shang sensed Qi Bai's breath.

He has been activating the sect's secret techniques.

"It's in that direction... inside the mountain!"

The will-o'-the-wisp disappeared and Luo Shang set off immediately.

Not long after he disappeared, a female cultivator appeared.

She had a rosy face and a tall and graceful figure. She was none other than Yang Chanyu from the Bukong Sect.

Yang Chanyu lingers in the Huoshi Immortal City, constantly changing her appearance and wandering around. One of her main purposes is to find Sun Lingtong.

In the sect, there was nothing unusual about Sun Lingtong's soul tablet.

Although the black market was shut down and Sun Lingtong had been wanted, Yang Chanyu was certain that Sun Lingtong was in Huoshi Xiancheng.

"Where did this little thing hide?"

"I left secret codes, and none of them were triggered by him."

"Humph, he's deliberately avoiding me!"

Yang Chanyu couldn't find Sun Lingtong, but unexpectedly found Luo Shang.

Whenever Luo Shang made any unusual movement, Yang Chanyu would sense it. After thinking about it, she decided to chase him secretly to see what Luo Shang had discovered.

Luo Shang carefully looked for a gap in the fairy city's magic circle, and after a long circle, he found the secret base in the mountain.

However, when he entered the secret base, Sun Lingtong was already gone.

Sun Lingtong went to another underground base to replenish Qi Bai's spiritual energy.

Luo Shang thought about it and felt that Sun Lingtong would come back, so he decided to wait and see!

"An underground base...wait, that's the breath of Sun Lingtong. Humph, little brat, I finally found you." Yang Chanyu snorted coldly and also hid.

And in another secret room.

Zhu Xuanji summoned the three Jindan ancestors and was holding the second secret negotiation.

In the first negotiation, Zhu Xuanji proposed cooperation. He wanted the three Jindan ancestors to help him with all their strength, combine the team, fight into Huoshi Mountain, directly attack the demon ape's nest, and retrieve the body of the demon general! This action is very risky, even at the Jindan level, there is a possibility of falling. But if the six Jindan cultivators join forces and cooperate sincerely, there is also a good chance of success.

The most important thing is that the profit is very high! One part is the rich spoils of destroying the demon ape's nest, and the other part is the reward provided by Zhu Xuanji for helping the Jindan cultivator.

The rewards are tempting.

Therefore, the three Jindan cultivators were all in a state of indecision.

Zhu Xuanji asked with a smile: "Fellow Taoists, what do you think?"

Zheng Shuanggou took the lead and said, "It's okay for two of us to take action, but... we have to pay more!"
