The manager of the seahorse pondered for a moment.
I agreed to the price.
But then a new requirement was put forward.
"We're not losing money at this price, but Dragon King, you need to agree to one condition."
"They're here!"
Ao Huang sighed inwardly.
I knew it wouldn't go that smoothly.
"you say!"
"After you successfully advance to the Integration Stage, could you agree to do something for our Treasure Pavilion?"
Don't agree to his request!
Chen Tianwen spoke up and stopped the deal.
"Why?"
Ao Huang was a little angry. This was his only chance to advance to the Nascent Soul stage in nearly a hundred years!
If it weren't for Chen Tianwen holding him hostage,
Ao Huang really turned hostile!
"Things that can only be accomplished by becoming a combined entity are not simple, and you don't know what he wants you to do!"
Chen Tianwen said calmly.
"The Master of Duobao Pavilion has grand ambitions! In this cultivation world, apart from the ancestors of the Ming Dynasty, the Sea Emperor, and myself, there is no third person who can accomplish what he demands."
Of course, he doesn't know my strength yet.
If I had known, I might have been the one begging!
"That's not necessarily true! The Pavilion Master of Duobao Pavilion is a member of the sea tribe; he would never ask you for a favor!"
Ao Huang responded stubbornly.
"Then I'll just wait for you to prove me wrong."
Without a word, Chen Tianwen directly rejected Ao Huang's dream.
Ao Huang thought about it for a moment, and Chen Tianwen's words made sense.
So he directly asked, "What exactly is it? If I can agree, then we'll proceed! If I can't, then I don't want this mysterious crystal!"
Hearing Ao Huang's words, the seahorse manager was quite surprised. He really didn't expect that the Dragon King could resist the temptation of becoming a sixth-level cultivator.
No wonder their own lord praised the Dragon King so highly.
Of all the sea monster kings, only the Dragon King was a true hero.
They have both strategy and strength.
The next one to advance to the sixth rank will definitely be the Dragon King.
Among the Ten Demon Kings, Xuan Turtle's Xuan Zi is actually a bloodline of ancestor return, and he also has the cultivation of the fifth-order peak.
But his own sect leader looked down on him.
I used to blindly trust bloodlines, but I never imagined that my master was the right person!
I should learn more from my own master in the future.
However, as for the matter that the Dragon King asked, the Seahorse Steward had long anticipated that he would ask.
Therefore, he did not hide anything and told Ao Huang everything the Pavilion Master had instructed him to do.
"Actually, the matter we need to handle is also related to this mysterious crystal."
This mysterious crystal was obtained by chance by the Pavilion Master five hundred years ago.
Hearing what the seahorse manager said.
Chen Tianwen's heart stirred. The time he obtained it was about the same as the time the Mermaid King obtained the Creation Cauldron!
Is there some connection between them?
"After obtaining this mysterious crystal, our sect leader received another piece of information: there is a secret hidden deep within Devil Mountain!"
Moreover, it's a secret that can absolutely help you advance your cultivation level!
But if we want to get to that place, only our sect leader has this map.
The Seahorse Steward mysteriously revealed what he knew.
Ao Huang still didn't know what had happened, but Chen Tianwen beside him had pieced together part of the story.
There must be a secret deep within Devil Mountain. Perhaps the news about the Mermaid King's Creation Cauldron came from Devil Mountain!
It must be said that Chen Tianwen is an absolutely intelligent person.
“Ao Huang, don’t agree to him. Since there’s a problem with Devil Mountain, I’m going to go and explore it.”
Ao Huang felt bitter inside. He had originally thought that under such circumstances, Chen Tianwen would not stop him from obtaining the Sealed Mystic Crystal.
After all, nobody knows what's going on at Devil Mountain!
But Chen Tianwen stopped himself without hesitation.
What are you thinking about?
Chen Tianwen found it somewhat amusing.
I really didn't expect things to turn out this way.
Ao Huang actually has time to be sentimental here!
I will not stand in your way!
Chen Tianwen answered Ao Huang's question with a blank expression.
“Since I stopped you, it means I have a way to give you a chance to get together.”
You don't need to give me five million spirit stones! Just agree to one small condition!
Chen Tianwen presented the conditions in Ao Huang's mind.
Ao Huang could hardly believe his ears.
There were only two Nascent Soul cultivators at that time.
They were the ancestors of the Ming Dynasty and His Highness the Sea Emperor.
Chen Tianwen might count as half!
After all, his strength is unfathomable.
Even so, Ao Huang couldn't believe his ears.
This whole thing still feels incredibly absurd.
"You're not kidding me, are you?!"
Ao Huang cautiously asked Chen Tianwen in his mind.
Of course not!
Chen Tian understood the Dragon King's feelings.
"My request is not high, you just need to give me a promise."
Ao Huang thought it over and over.
Right now, I'm like a dragon on a sticky board; whether I refuse or not is meaningless.
So he gritted his teeth and spoke up!
"Okay! I promise you! As long as you let me advance to the sixth rank smoothly."
"Don't just say one thing, I'd agree to three things."
Chen Tianwen looked at the Dragon King with satisfaction.
He formulated his own demands in his mind.
"You have successfully advanced to the Integration stage. All you need to do is send your troops back to the sea."
If the Sea Emperor causes you trouble, don't worry, I'll take care of him for you.
