Chapter 367: Clouds break and the moon emerges

Xiang Zhengye, with white hair and red eyes, has an evil look between his eyebrows and eyes. He doesn't look like a good person at all.

Gao Xian would not judge a person by his appearance. It was just that he had just killed a young man in the other party's family, and the other party wanted to cooperate with him. Anyone would suspect that there was something fishy going on.

He was a little curious, how did the other party know that he wanted the Nine-Transformation Qianyuan Spirit Refining Pill?

Tian Yunong and Xiang Shouyi wanted to kill for money, so they couldn't discuss it with Xiang Zhengye. They couldn't even drink soup when they worked with a Jindan Zhenren!

On the other hand, the offer is indeed very tempting.

If it were any other foundation-building cultivator, he would naturally not have the courage to negotiate with the Golden Core True Man.

There is nothing to be afraid of about Gao Xian. If this guy doesn't know how to live or die, don't blame him for being cruel and ruthless.

He asked, "What does the True Man want me to do?"

Seeing Gao Xian so calm and composed, Xiang Zhengye was a little surprised. He couldn't help but nod and praise him: "As expected of a sword cultivator, you really have a good character."

He had even more admiration for Gao Xian. With such sword skills and such a character, he would surely shine on the Wanjie Stage.

No need for more, winning three or five games would allow him to win back all his money with interest! Three Nine-Transformation Qianyuan Transformation Refining Spirit Pills only cost one thousand high-grade spirit stones, so what was that?

Besides, how could he let this person leave Wanjietai alive?

Xiang Zhengye said, "It's actually very simple. Help me fight a few games on the Wanjie Stage. As long as you can win five games in a row, I will give you three Nine Revolutions Spiritual Pills. It's up to you whether you stay or leave.

He paused and said, "The spiritual energy in Jiaocheng is the purest, which can greatly increase the chance of forming a golden elixir and even improve the grade of the golden elixir. If you are willing, I can help you rent a cave in Jiaocheng to practice..."

The conditions offered by the other party are very generous. The more generous the conditions are, the more it shows that this matter is extremely dangerous.

"Wanjietai?"

Gao Xian said politely: "I am new here and I don't know anything. Please explain it to me."

"The Doucheng Wanjietai is actually a fighting arena. Practitioners from all sides fight on it, regardless of life or death."

Xiang Zhengye said calmly: "I lost face on the Wanjie Stage. All you have to do is go up and win five games in a row to help me win back my face. Everything is easy to talk about..."

Gao Xian understood as soon as he heard it. Wanjietai was a gambling game based on fighting.

This is not new. There is a life and death arena in the southern city of Qingyun City.

More than ten Qigong practitioners died every day. The battles were extremely cruel and bloody.

Because of this, gambling fights are so interesting and can attract a large number of gamblers.

Gao Xian knew that the Shui family was the mastermind behind the life and death arena, and their annual income just from being the banker could reach tens of millions of low-grade spirit stones.

Wanfeng City is much larger than Qingyun City, and the scale of the gambling here must be even bigger.

According to Xiang Zhengye, the Wanjietai still needs the foundation-building cultivators to fight hard! You have to know that a cultivator who can build a foundation, no matter how weak he is, can easily crush a Qi-cultivating cultivator.

This means that foundation-building cultivators can do well wherever they go.

It is impossible for a Jindan Zhenren like Yun Qingxuan to use a foundation-building cultivator as a housekeeper.

Daniu followed him because they had been friends for more than 20 years.

Even a foundation-building cultivator like Tian Yunong who was a swindler actually lived a very carefree life.

No matter how short of money Tian Yunong was, he would never go to the ring and fight someone to the death.

No matter what means are used, the fact that Wanjietai can get a Foundation Establishment cultivator to fight on the arena shows the ability of the Wanjietai.

According to Xiang Zhengye, it is normal for foundation-building cultivators to participate in wars.

The Wanjietai, where life and death are not considered, consumes a foundation-building cultivator every day? A huge city like Wanfeng City will have a strong siphon effect on the surrounding areas, and a large number of foundation-building cultivators must be pouring into Wanfeng City.

Considering the scale of this place, it is not an exaggeration to say that there are 50,000 to 60,000 foundation-building cultivators.

If one foundation-building cultivator dies every day, that would be about 300 per year. A consumption of 200% does not seem particularly exaggerated.

Gao Xian asked, "What if I don't agree?"

"If you don't agree, then pay with Xiang Shouyi's life."

Xiang Zhengye said calmly: "I advise you not to make this choice."

As he spoke, the aura of the golden elixir emanated from Xiang Zhengye's body, and the golden elixir's powerful consciousness pressed down on Taiyuan's divine body.

This clone is at the foundation-building level. Gao Xian can use the clone to control the White Lotus Golden Divine Flag to kill the opponent, but he cannot compete head-on with Xiang Zhengye like he did.

From the other party's self-righteous look, Gao Xian knew that Xiang Zhengye was not a reasonable person.

He thought for a moment and said, "I can go up to the Ten Thousand Tribulations Stage. But I need to get three Nine Transformation Spirit Refining Pills first."

Xiang Zhengye was somewhat amused: "I call you a Taoist friend because I admire your swordsmanship. It doesn't mean that you are qualified to be my Taoist friend.

He said with some disdain: "You are not qualified to make conditions here."

The opponent killed Xiang Shouyi and Tian Yunong with just one sword. His swordsmanship was extremely superb.

Xiang Zhengye has lived for hundreds of years and has seen several Jindan sword practitioners. When it comes to sword skills that are exquisite and wonderful, this person is undoubtedly the best.

Sword cultivators have a huge advantage in battles of the same level, especially on a stage like the Wanjie Stage, where the limited space requires the use of specified magic tools and magic talismans are not allowed. The advantage of sword cultivators is magnified again.

With this man's swordsmanship, he will definitely be able to dominate the Wanjie Stage in a short period of time.

If it weren't for this, Xiang Zhengye wouldn't have said so much. It was just that the other party's rebellious attitude made him somewhat impatient.

Is this guy a fool? Does he really think he has a choice? !

Xiang Zhengye was very disdainful. He made this friendly gesture just to solve the problem as soon as possible, not because he was really controlled by Gao Xian! Gao Xian held the hilt of the Qingfeng sword and said in a deep voice: "If you want me to fight for my life, you must show some sincerity. Otherwise, I would rather fight to the death."

Xiang Zhengye frowned slightly, and Gao Xian's golden eyes were filled with determination and sharpness, showing his strong fighting spirit to fight with his life.

It's not that he was afraid of Gao Xian, but killing Gao Xian would result in the loss of tens of thousands of high-quality spirit stones.

With such huge benefits, he couldn't just do whatever he wanted.

Xiang Zhengye felt very frustrated at being controlled like this by a foundation-building cultivator.

After a moment of silence, he said to Zhengye, "If you sign this life and death book, I will give you the Nine-transformation Qianyuan Transformation Refining Spirit Pill first."

Xiang Zhengye took out a contract made of gold foil, which was engraved with dense runes.

This is a third-level golden book voucher. Both parties can sign the contract with their spiritual consciousness. Each of them holds a copy.

Through the spiritual aura, the Golden Book Contract has certain constraints on the signer. The most important thing is that through the Golden Book Contract, the other party's soul can be locked, and the other party can be easily tracked, or even directly killed with a curse.

Xiang Zhengye used his spiritual consciousness to write the contents of the contract on the golden book voucher and then handed it to Gao Xian.

Gao Xian took a look and found the content of the contract to be very simple. It stipulated that he would fight on the Wanjie Stage for Xiang Zhengye and win five consecutive victories.

As a reward, Xiang Zhengye first gave Gao Xian three Nine-Transformation Qianyuan Transformation Spirit Refining Pills.

Gao Xian checked and found no problem, so he used his spiritual sense to leave his pseudonym: Wuji.

The contract was shining with golden light, establishing an extremely mysterious connection with Gao Xian.

Xiang Zhengye didn't care. The name was not important. What was important was the mark of spiritual consciousness left by Gao Xian.

With the golden deed, Gao Xian couldn't escape.

After signing the Golden Book Deed, Xiang Zhengye's attitude towards Gao Xian improved a lot.

"I'll take you to Doucheng first."

Xiang Zhengye said as he stretched out his hand: "Give me back the Calming Mirror first."

Gao Xian suddenly realized that Xiang Zhengye knew all this because the spiritual bronze mirror was his.

No wonder he always felt that the bronze mirror was a little weird. He originally thought that the bronze mirror had some mysterious spirit, but it turned out that Xiang Zhengye was controlling the bronze mirror to spy on him.

This clone could also borrow the power of the first-grade golden elixir, but at such a subtle level, it was still one level short and could not see the problem with the bronze mirror.

Please...collect 6...9...books...!

Xiang Zhengye took Gao Xian and flew out of Weicheng through a vertical passage and flew to the most majestic and tall mountain in the north.

From the sky you can see that the top of the mountain has been cut off, and there is a hollow city below.

The buildings are all tall buildings, like a huge palace, looking very majestic and magnificent.

"This should be the first floor of Corner City. All the big businesses are here..."

Gao Xian glanced around and quickly found the familiar Wanbaolou sign.

The seven-story Wanbao Tower is built magnificently. The glazed tiles seem to be coated with a layer of gold, shining brightly in the sun, and is very eye-catching.

Xiang Zhengye did not enter the first floor. He took Gao Xian into the corner city through a passage under the mountain wall.

When entering, a spiritual light flashed on Xiang Zhengye's body, and the invisible magic barrier naturally opened the entrance.

The magic array of Jiaocheng is very advanced, at least at the fourth level. This means that even Yuanying Zhenjun cannot trespass.

Xiang Zhengye took Gao Xian to an inn, threw Gao Xian into the room, and told him not to run around.

Then, Xiang Zhengye hurried out.

The day after tomorrow is the day when the battle of Wanjietai will begin. Everything must be done before then, and Gao Xian must be added to the battle list.

In order to make Gao Xian work for him, he must first obtain three Nine-Transformation Qianyuan Transformation Spirit Pills.

Xiang Zhengye didn't care about the money. When Gao Xian died, these things would naturally return to his hands and could be sold for money.

But he lost a lot of spirit stones, and he had to keep some for the next day's bet. He couldn't afford to buy the elixir.

There was no other way, Xiang Zhengye could only go and borrow money from others.

Wanbao Tower, Plum Blossom Hall on the sixth floor.

Sitting opposite Xiang Zhengye and Jin Dayuan, this Jindan had a smile on his face, "Boss, I will lend you 10,000 high-grade spirit stones, and I will definitely return them to you within ten days."

Jin Dayuan showed an embarrassment on his affable face: "Master, listen to my advice, Old Jin, a little gambling can make you happy..."

"Loans and loans also follow the rules. What are you afraid of?"

Xiang Zhengye was a little unhappy, "How can I, the great Jindan Wanfeng True Disciple, be short of 10,000 high-grade spirit stones from you?!"

These words were a bit harsh, and Jin Dayuan was unable to persuade him any further.

He groaned for a moment and said, "According to the rules, nine out of 13 will return. Are you sure you want it?"

Nine out and thirteen back means if you lend ten thousand to nine thousand, you have to pay back thirteen thousand. The time limit is one month. After the time limit, the interest will double.

Of course, for a Jindan master like Xiang Zhengye, the interest rate can be negotiated. It is impossible to increase it too high.

"Don't talk nonsense."

Xiang Zhengye thought for a moment and said, "Give me three Nine-Transformation Qianyuan Transformation Refining Spirit Pills. Deduct it from the loan."

"Okay, wait a moment."

Jin Dayuan didn't waste any more time and went out quickly to handle the procedures for Xiang Zhengye.

If this gambler wants to go crazy, that's his business. Anyway, he has to pay back the money he owes to Wanbaolou. If he doesn't pay it back, there is still Wanfeng Sect, and he can't evade this debt.

Xiang Zhengye knew what Jin Dawon was thinking, but he was too lazy to explain.

He might not be able to beat the dealer, but with this extraordinary swordsman in his hand, it would not be difficult for him to make a lot of money.

The foundation-building cultivators who could climb the Ten Thousand Tribulations Stage were all desperate. It was impossible for the true disciples of various sects to come here and risk their lives.

With that guy's peerless swordsmanship, ten consecutive wins would be no problem. But the dealer would definitely not allow it. Five consecutive wins would be the limit. Even so, he could make a fortune! Xiang Zhengye got the spirit stones and elixirs, and hurried to Wanjietai to find Yue Huaying, who was familiar with him.

This Senior Brother Yue had always had a good relationship with him. He was also one of the people in charge of the Wanjietai. He had lost a lot in the previous few times, and it was only with the help of this Senior Brother that he was able to save a little bit of his wealth.

When Yue Huaying heard what Xiang Zhengye said, he couldn't help but feel curious, "Is it really that amazing?"

"I killed two monks of the same level with one sword, but the other party attacked first."

Xiang Zhengye said seriously: "The sword light is as cool as the moon emerging from the clouds, majestic and clear, and its excellence is beyond words..."

Yue Huaying was a little surprised that Xiang Zhengye was eager for quick success, but he had strong cultivation and was quite accomplished in swordsmanship.

The fact that Xiang Zhengye values ​​him so much shows that this foundation-building swordsman is indeed capable.

Yue Huaying thought for a moment and said, "I don't care about the first five battles, but after the five battles, the people will be given to us."

Xiang Zhengye smiled and said, "Senior brother always took care of me before, this time I will just follow your instructions."

He couldn't help but ask again: "In which battle should this person be killed? Brother, please tell me in advance so that I can earn more..."

Yue Huaying smiled and said, "Don't worry, once I get him, I will squeeze every bone marrow out of him."

"In fact, with this man's talent, he may be able to become a Sword Master someday." Xiang Zhengye sighed, "It's a pity to say that."

"The more this is the case, the more we cannot allow this person to leave Wanjietai alive."

Yue Huaying said coldly: "We forced them to fight like hell, how could they not bear grudges? Anyone who goes up to the Ten Thousand Tribulations Stage will never leave alive!"
