In the time it took for an incense stick to burn, Qingqiu organized all the information about Qu Zhaozhou and Emperor Welcoming Prefecture for Xu Qing. She even split it into two jade slips.
She sent them to Xu Qing, who was resting with his eyes closed.
She wasn't the only one doing this. There were other sword wielders checking it. After ensuring that there were no mistakes, she had to add her own mark.
This was to prevent careless mistakes from occurring, and thus, the method of accountability was set up.
Xu Qing opened his eyes and took a look at the jade slips.
It was impossible for the outside races to obtain soldiers in Fenghai County. Hence, Xu Qing could only think of two places: Qu Zhaozhou and Emperor Welcoming Prefecture.
Due to the outbreak of the Clothing Restriction and Corpse Restriction, the Palace Lord had ordered them not to go to the frontlines. They had to suppress the two restrictions and prevent them from rioting.
Fenghai County had a total of 13 prefectures.
If the power of these two prefectures could be released, it would provide close to 20% of the frontlines' strength.
This would be a huge help to the frontlines.
However, this was too difficult. Even if Xu Qing could ask Qingqin to help, it would still be difficult.
Hence, he started to study the information of these two prefectures.
"The Yi Jin's calamity has basically been suppressed, but this is the most crucial time. Right now, the entire Qu Zhaozhou, under the coordination of the Sword Court, is going all out to complete the final seal. During this period of time, in order to prevent the Yi Jin from retaliating, we cannot lack combat strength. We still need a month.
"
Xu Qing frowned and sighed.
A month was too long. For the frontlines of Fenghai County, it would be too late.
However, if they didn't seal it, the prefectures would be plunged into chaos by the Forbidden Lands. The foundations of all the human sects would be destroyed. Countless humans would become food for the Forbidden Lands and be mutated.
As this spread, Fenghai County would be in chaos.
Most of the outside races in these two prefectures also participated in the sealing. After all, the situation was different from the other prefectures. The danger at their doorstep forced the outside races in these two prefectures to act.
Hence, it was difficult for Xu Qing to give the order to remove the seal and head to the frontlines immediately.
This was especially true for the Royal Welcome Continent, where Xu Qing's base was located. Even though there were over ninety races in the Forbidden Sea working together to fight against the Corpse Seal, and a majority of the Royal Welcome Continent's forces were gathered, they were only barely able to suppress the chaos caused by the Corpse Seal.
Right now, they were also stuck in a stalemate.
Xu Qing was silent as he carefully examined the jade slip. After a while, he was reviewing the information regarding the Imperial Welcoming Continent. Suddenly, his eyes narrowed as he noticed that there was a piece of information that had been recorded in the Sword Ruling Court's daily report.
"Most of the foreign clans and forces in the Royal Continent have participated in the battle against the Corpse Forbidden City. However, there are some who did not participate. The Three Spirits Guarding Dao Mountain and the Ghost Emperor Mountain are the leaders.
"
"However, after communicating with each other, the two great powers agreed not to take even half a step out of their territory during this period of time.
"
"The Three Spirits of the Zhen Dao Mountain and the Seven Souls of the Ghost Emperor Mountain are all formed from the Ghost Emperor's soul, and the remnant imprints of the Ghost Emperor Mountain cannot be destroyed unless they are immortal. Therefore, they are all immortal. If they are forced to fight, there will be friction. If they are not sincere, it will not be beneficial to the sealing of the corpse.
"
"Therefore, in order to avoid unnecessary trouble and waste time, my prefecture's Sword Holding Court has decided to allow them not to fight.
"
Xu Qing stared at the message and fell silent for a long time. Then he stood up and began to pace around the Literary Department.
His eyes were filled with determination and hesitation, as if he was weighing the pros and cons.
Beside him, Qing Qiu and Ning Yan rarely saw Xu Qing so hesitant. Even when he was the Black Sky God, they had not seen Xu Qing like this. Therefore, after looking at each other, they instinctively did not dare to breathe too loudly.
Just like this, Xu Qing frowned and walked dozens of steps. He sensed the Ghost Emperor Palace within him and stopped. He looked up at the sky outside with a determined expression.
"Qing Qiu, Ning Yan, the two of you will be in charge of the Literary Department. Gather information from the frontlines and monitor the progress of the transportation of supplies. I give Qing Qiu authority. If there is anything important, he can use the Sword Holding Court's array formation to send a message to me.
"
Qing Qiu quickly puffed out his chest. Just as he was about to speak loudly, he thought of his pride and suppressed his instincts.
He nodded his head.
Ning Yan, on the other hand, did not have so many concerns. He loudly agreed and then asked curiously.
"Senior Brother Xu, are you going out?
"
Xu Qing glanced at Ning Yan and did not answer the question. He did not want to tell others his specific whereabouts before he left, so he spoke lightly.
"I'm going to the Clothing Forbidden City.
"
With that, Xu Qing stepped out of the Literary Department. Without any hesitation, he lifted his foot and walked towards the sky. In a few steps, he was above the sky. Most of the foreign races in these two prefectures also participated in the seal. After all, the situation was different from the other prefectures. The danger at their doorstep forced the foreign races in these two prefectures to take action.
Therefore, it was difficult for Xu Qing to give the order to remove the seal and immediately head to the frontlines.
Especially the Welcoming Emperor Prefecture, where Xu Qing's headquarters was located. Even though there were more than 90 races in the Forbidden City working together to resist the Corpse Forbidden City, and more than half of the forces in the Welcoming Emperor Prefecture were gathered, they could only barely suppress the disaster caused by the Corpse Forbidden City.
Now, they were in a stalemate.
Xu Qing was silent as he carefully checked the jade slip. After a long time, when he was reviewing the information in the Welcoming Emperor Prefecture, his eyes suddenly narrowed. He noticed that there was a piece of information recorded in the Sword Holding Court's routine book.
"Most of the foreign races and forces in the Welcoming Emperor Prefecture participated in the battle against the Corpse Forbidden City. However, there are some that did not participate. The Three Spirits Guarding Dao Mountain and the Ghost Emperor Mountain are the leaders.
"
"However, after communication, these two great forces agreed not to take half a step out of their area during this period.
"
"The Three Spirits of the Guarding Dao Mountain and the Seven Souls of the Ghost Emperor Mountain are all formed by the Ghost Emperor's soul. The remnant imprint of the Ghost Emperor Mountain cannot be destroyed unless it contains a soul, so they are all immortal. If they are forced to fight, there will be friction, and if they aren't sincere, it will be of no benefit to the sealing of the Corpse Forbidden City.
"
"Therefore, in order to avoid unnecessary trouble and waste time, the Sword Holding Court has decided to allow them to not fight.
"
Xu Qing looked at this information and pondered for a long time. Then he stood up and began to pace around the Command Department.
His eyes were sometimes filled with determination and sometimes hesitation as if he was weighing the pros and cons.
Qing Qiu and Ning Yan rarely saw Xu Qing so hesitant. Even when he was God Black Sky, they didn't see Xu Qing like this. They looked at each other and instinctively didn't dare to breathe too loudly.
Just like this, Xu Qing frowned and walked a few dozen steps. He sensed the Ghost Emperor Palace and stopped. He looked up at the sky with a decisive expression.
"Qing Qiu, Ning Yan, you two will be in charge of the Command Department. Gather information from the frontlines and monitor the progress of the transportation of supplies. Give Qing Qiu the authority to use the Sword Holding Court's formation to send a message to me.
"
Qing Qiu quickly puffed out his chest and was about to speak loudly, but when he remembered his pride, he suppressed his instincts and pretended to be calm as he nodded.
Ning Yan didn't have so many misgivings. He loudly agreed and then asked curiously.
"Senior Brother Xu, are you going out?
"
Xu Qing glanced at Ning Yan and didn't answer the question. He didn't want to tell others where he was going before he left, so he spoke calmly.
"I'm going to the Clothing Imperial Court.
"
Once he finished speaking, Xu Qing walked out of the Command Department. Without any hesitation, he lifted his foot and walked towards the sky. With a few steps, he was above the sky.
The giant bird Qing Qin let out a caw and revealed three huge heads from the clouds. They looked at Xu Qing excitedly and made a swallowing motion, as if they wanted to go and wipe out the entire race.
Its right head quickly reached below Xu Qing and carried Xu Qing on its head.
As Xu Qing's Divine Will was sent out, Qing Qin's eyes revealed a strong expression. It flapped its wings fiercely and immediately, the sky above the county capital exploded. With a roar, Qing Qin took Xu Qing and disappeared from this area.
Qing Qin's speed was fast and was not much slower than the Teleportation Formation in short distances. However, in the long run, it was not as convenient as the Teleportation Formation. However, Xu Qing didn't want to reveal his specific whereabouts in advance. Although he knew that the possibility of this was not high, he still had to be cautious.
Therefore, after leaving the county capital, he found a Teleportation Formation in the Sword Holding Palace and stepped in with Qing Qin, who had shrunk a lot, and disappeared.
Just like that, after a few rounds, Xu Qing and Qing Qin appeared three days later.
At the border of the Royal Welcome State, outside the Northern Plains.
Although it was noon, the sun seemed to only be left with light and no longer had any warmth. Therefore, an icy wind whistled past, stirring up a sea of snowflakes that swirled between the heavens and the earth.
The cold wind was bone-piercing and the ground was covered in silver. Only the Taichu Departing Pillar, which stood in the distance, was earth-shattering and gave people a sense of majesty.
However, in Xu Qing's memory, the Taichu Departing Pillar was surrounded by countless tents, causing this place to become a gathering place for the human race like a town.
But now, most of the tents here were empty. As the cold wind rushed past, the countless tents swayed and rustled.
Only a few old figures would occasionally appear in the cold wind, wrapped tightly in clothes.
These people were not Sword Holding Palace, but the residents here.
It was obvious that they had been left behind by the Sword Holding Palace and did not let their old age participate in the battle.
In the sky, Xu Qing glanced at the black palace at the top of the Taichu Departing Pillar. He could sense that there were not many Sword Holding Palace there.
"The Taichu Departing Pillar …" Xu Qing gestured for Qing Qin to circle in the sky.
As the clouds gathered due to Qing Qin's arrival, Xu Qing, who was in the fog, stared at this earth-shattering pillar. This time, if he wanted to achieve his goal, he needed to use the Taichu Departing Pillar to verify it.
Thus, Xu Qing suddenly raised his right hand and made a grabbing motion in the air.
At the same time, the Ghost Emperor Palace in his body revolved, and the figure of the Ghost Emperor sitting cross-legged inside suddenly opened his eyes.
In an instant, the Taichu Departing Pillar shook violently. This scene immediately attracted the attention of the wandering cultivators here and the Sword Holding Palace of the Welcoming Emperor State. As their expressions changed, they also noticed the faint figure of a large bird in the clouds in the sky.
"Who are you!
"
After arriving at the Welcoming Emperor State, there was no point in hiding anymore. Standing on Qing Qin, Xu Qing took out his command sword and spoke calmly.
"Xu Qing.
"
As Xu Qing's voice sounded, Qing Qin flapped her wings and the clouds around them dispersed. His figure was immediately noticed by the Sword Holding Palace of the Welcoming Emperor State.
In other states, the Sword Holding Palace would have to recognize the name first, then recognize Xu Qing's appearance. From there, they would have a preliminary understanding of his identity, then cooperate with the command sword to finally confirm it.
But in the Welcoming Emperor State, Xu Qing's appearance was incomparably clear to the Sword Holding Palace.
After all, his ascension and the endless light had appeared under the witness of all the Sword Holding Palace of the Welcoming Emperor State. So when the Sword Holding Palace's formation dispersed and they confirmed Xu Qing's command sword, the Sword Holding Palace's figures quickly flew out.
"Xu Qing!"
"
"It's Xu Shuling!"
"
Xu Qing was familiar with most of these Sword Holding Palace. When they saw Xu Qing, their expressions became friendly and they immediately greeted him. One of the Sword Holding Palace of the Welcoming Emperor State took a step forward and spoke respectfully.
"Xu Shuling, do you want to open the Taichu Departing Pillar?
Do you need our cooperation? "
"
Xu Qing shook his head. He knew that the Ghost Cave was suppressed under the Taichu Departing Pillar and could not be opened easily. He had only come here to try, so he suddenly grabbed with his right hand. Immediately, the Taichu Departing Pillar trembled even more violently.
But he understood that this was all he could do. If he wanted to truly take it out, with his current cultivation level, it was simply impossible.
However, Xu Qing's goal was not to take out the Taichu Departing Pillar, but …
"Artifact Spirit!"
Xu Qing suddenly spoke, and his voice echoed like thunder. He was calling out to the Artifact Spirit on the Taichu Departing Pillar. This was his goal.
After a long time, as the Taichu Departing Pillar trembled, a low chant that echoed throughout the world spread out from the Taichu Departing Pillar.
The sound pierced through the nine heavens and shook the world. At the same time, a pair of giant eyes appeared on the Taichu Departing Pillar. An ancient aura spread out in all directions. When it looked at Xu Qing, there was obvious doubt in its eyes.
This scene shocked all the Sword Holding Palace. They naturally knew that the Taichu Departing Pillar had an Artifact Spirit, but normally, this Artifact Spirit was in a state of deep sleep. In the entire Sword Holding Court, only the Grand Elder could communicate with it.
But now, after Xu Qing spoke, the Artifact Spirit …
It actually woke up.
Xu Qing stared at the eyes of the Taichu Departing Pillar's Artifact Spirit. The Ghost Emperor Palace inside his body trembled even more. The Ghost Emperor's eyes also shone brightly.
Xu Qing pondered. He felt that this was not enough, so he waved his hand and borrowed the power of the Demon Talisman. The world behind him changed colors and clouds gathered in all directions. A blurry Ghost Emperor Mountain suddenly appeared.
"Ghost Emperor Mountain!
"
"This … This …"
Those from the other continents weren't familiar with the Ghost Emperor Mountain and wouldn't immediately understand its meaning. However, to the cultivators of the Welcoming Emperor Continent, the Ghost Emperor Mountain's existence was extremely clear. At this moment, they recognized it at a glance and their expressions changed greatly.
The Taichu Departing Pillar also trembled to the extreme. The doubt in the Artifact Spirit's eyes turned into confusion and there was even a hint of excitement.
Seeing this, Xu Qing let out a sigh of relief. Everything he did after returning to the Welcoming Emperor Continent was thanks to the Ghost Emperor Palace, so he had to first verify if his theory was correct.
"Artifact Spirit, do you recognize me?"
Xu Qing suddenly spoke.
"The Emperor is awakening!"
The Artifact Spirit on the Taichu Departing Pillar was silent for a few breaths of time before it sent out a vast divine sense message. It didn't answer Xu Qing's question, but instead said four words that contained a different meaning.
This didn't match Xu Qing's judgment. According to his analysis, it should be something like an inheritance.
But it didn't matter. The awakening of the Artifact Spirit was in line with Xu Qing's first plan, so he softly spoke.
"Then, can you tell the three souls and seven spirits about this? Tell them … I'm here.
"
If a merchant wanted to prove that his goods were good and effective, then he needed the recognition and trust of the buyer.
If a merchant walked over and directly spoke to the buyer, the effect would be very poor. Even if he took out some evidence, the effect would be uncontrollable.
But if there was an endorsement with considerable weight, this kind of recommendation from others would naturally be different.
This was the reason why Xu Qing came to the Taichu Departing Pillar, and also the first step of his plan.
It was very important.
But if he really couldn't succeed, Xu Qing also had other methods, but they were much more complicated.
And his final goal was to be a merchant, to make a deal with the three souls and seven spirits of the Ghost Emperor Mountain.
The Artifact Spirit of the Taichu Departing Pillar was his endorsement.
So, after an incense stick of time, when the Artifact Spirit of the Taichu Departing Pillar used a special method to transmit this matter to the three souls and seven spirits, Xu Qing left this place.
In the sky, he stood on the right side of Qing Qin, and sped towards the Three Spirits Guarding Dao Mountain.
As he headed south, the wind and snow gradually dissipated, and the earth gradually faded from white, turning into emerald green. When a vast and ancient river containing immortals appeared in Xu Qing's eyes, memories of the past rose in his heart.
Xu Qing didn't expect that after leaving for so many years, he would return in such a way. At this moment, in silence, Qing Qin let out a squeak and pulled Xu Qing out of his memories.
"Senior, it's not easy to exterminate the clan now, but I will look for an opportunity."
Xu Qing hurriedly said.
Qing Qin was a little regretful. With a flap of its wings, it flew towards the Three Spirits Guarding Dao Mountain according to Xu Qing's guidance. Under its extreme speed, it didn't take long for the Three Spirits Guarding Dao Mountain to appear in the distance.
This place was filled with skeletons like a mountain ridge, bones like a forest, human skin stuck together, hair turned into felt, and wind blew through the dry hair, covering the earth in black.
Looking from midair, it was even more obvious. The entire place was a bloody sea of corpses, a stinking purgatory on earth.
In the past, Xu Qing didn't understand why the Sword Holding Court would allow such a force to exist, but now he knew very well that the Ghost Emperor was not truly dead. His status was so high that his three souls and seven spirits also possessed the power of immortality.
This also made them extremely special. As long as the Ghost Emperor's divine aura existed, they wouldn't die.
Therefore, it wasn't that they were immortal, but that they couldn't be exterminated.
If they were forced into a corner, they would give up their independence, and the Ghost Emperor … would awaken.
At that time, the life and death of the Sea Sealing County would be decided by the awakened Ghost Emperor.
This matter couldn't be gambled on.
According to the Sword Holding Court's judgment of this kind of ancient spirit, they would definitely be extremely hungry the moment they awakened. It wasn't impossible for them to devour an entire county.
Therefore, the successive county governors treated the Ghost Emperor the same as the Forbidden Lands.
In the end, it was still the decline of the human race. If it was during the era of Ancient Emperor Xuan You, these three souls and seven spirits could be suppressed at will. Even if the Ghost Emperor awakened, it would still be difficult to escape suppression.
As for these three souls and seven spirits, they also knew that nothing could be done, so they didn't expand their forces too much. They plundered small countries and various races within their borders.
Xu Qing didn't have a good impression of the Three Spirits, but now that the front line was in danger, there were some things that had to be done even if he didn't like it.
At this moment, as they arrived, the Three Spirits Guarding the Dao Mountain surged, the earth trembled, and cracks appeared in the sky. Of the three giant mountains that originally existed here, only two remained.
The mountain where the Serene Spirits once resided had already collapsed, and only a short mountain remained.
The other two mountains that transformed into giant chairs were still the same.
On the mountain on the right, there was a chair made from the bones of a giant beast. There were countless dead souls around it, and a figure that was as thin as firewood was sitting there.
His entire body was thin and emaciated, and the giant sarcoma on his back was wriggling rhythmically. It let out a rumbling sound like a war drum that reverberated throughout the world and shook one's mind.
This figure was the Earth Soul of the Three Spirits, Spirit Sovereign Jue Yang!
He raised his head and coldly looked at Qing Qin, who was speeding through the sky. As for the tallest mountain beside him, it was shrouded in thick black fog. The figure inside couldn't be seen clearly, and only the sound of breathing could be heard.
That was where the strongest soul of the Ghost Emperor Mountain, Spirit Sovereign Fetus Light, was located!
Around the mountain, the countless Three Spirits Garrison Dao Mountain Cultivators felt the pressure from the sky, and began to tremble. Suddenly, Spirit Paragon Jue Yang opened his mouth.
"Stop!"
"Gah!"
"Gah!"
"Gah!"
With Qing Qin's ferocious nature, how could she stop just because of Spirit Sovereign Jue Yang's words? After letting out a ferocious roar, Qing Qin continued to circle around the Three Spirits Dao Mountain. Her left head even spread out and quickly swept across the ground. She opened her mouth and devoured one cultivator after another.
The sound of chewing came out and miserable screams echoed. Qing Qin seemed to think that the taste wasn't bad, so she simply fell to the ground with a bang.
Her giant body was even taller than the Three Spirits Mountain. She stood there and continued to eat the snacks that were rushing to escape. She looked at the Earth Soul with a provocative gaze.
However, it also knew the general purpose of Xu Qing's visit this time. Therefore, after sweeping its gaze over the area, it raised its right head and placed it in front of Three Spirit Mountains to look down at them.
Spirit Sovereign Jue Yang silently pondered. He didn't care about his subordinates that were escaping and instead stared at Xu Qing, who was standing on the right side of Qing Meng.
"I remember you. You little worm, how dare you come here!"
Jue Yang said coldly.
Xu Qing looked at the giant Spirit Sovereign Jue Yang from within Qing Qin's protective light. Her expression was calm as she slowly spoke.
"If I'm a worm, then what are you?"
Xu Qing didn't waste any words. The Ghost Emperor Palace in her body trembled and she activated the demon talisman. Suddenly, the shadow of the Ghost Emperor Mountain appeared behind her.
The moment it appeared, it opened its eyes, causing the sky to change colors and the entire Three Spirits Dao Suppression Mountain to tremble.
However, Spirit Sovereign Jue Yang's expression was normal.
"You only comprehended the remnant image and merged it with the Heaven Palace. You borrowed the power of the Great Void Demon Talisman to create it. Although this requires many things, you're not the only one who can do it. Our three souls and seven spirits are still here. What do you want to say? That you're the reincarnation of the Ghost Emperor?
The Ghost Emperor's inheritance?
"
Spirit Sovereign Jue Yang looked at Xu Qing.
"What a joke!
The Artifact Spirit isn't us. As a servant, its perception is a bit one-sided and it's subordinate to the human race. The information you want it to pass on is useless.
"
"This battle is between the human race and the Holy Wave Tribe. We won't interfere. We'll tacitly accept that the Nether Spirit was forced to participate. This is our bottom line.
"
With that, Jue Yang closed his eyes.
Xu Qing's expression was calm. He knew that this transaction wouldn't be easy. Given the other party's realm, he was very clear.
He knew why he had come here. This was normal, so he spoke calmly.
"What if I use the Ghost Emperor Palace to ascend to the Nascent Soul realm?
"
"After that, the Ghost Emperor's image can become my Dao Nascent Soul. If I go one step further, I can ascend to the Spirit Treasure realm and use the Ghost Emperor as a secret treasure to merge with the Heavenly Dao.
"
"At that time, how I create it will still be important?"
Xu Qing's voice echoed.
However, Jue Yang's eyes were still closed.
"The Ghost Emperor will become your secret treasure?
The secret treasure of the Spirit Treasure realm can only be obtained by plundering the Heavenly Dao from a small world and refining it. The Heavenly Dao is arrogant. Even if it's refined, it can't be forced. Besides, it's not one with the Ghost Emperor, so how can it merge?
"
"What if the Heavenly Dao is my life and obeys my orders?"
Xu Qing waved his hand, and the sky changed color. The Azure Dragon appeared inside, exuding the pressure of the Heavenly Path. At the same time, it also contained the connection of its life. Waves of thunderous roars exploded in all directions.
Spirit Sovereign Jue Yang's eyes suddenly opened. For the first time, his expression changed.
The black fog on the mountain where the Heavenly Soul was stopped churning, and the sound of breathing instantly disappeared.
Xu Qing continued to speak.
"If my cultivation can still ascend to the Returning to Void stage, I can use my power to create a world and move the real Ghost Emperor Mountain into a ghost realm. With the Ghost Emperor's image fused with the Heavenly Dao in the secret treasure, they can overlap."
"At that time, if I say that I obtained the Ghost Emperor's inheritance, will you still think it's impossible?"
Xu Qing's calm voice echoed in all directions.
"That's too long, and it's unknown whether you can do it!"
Spirit Sovereign Jue Yang was silent for a moment, then spoke in a low voice. He looked at Xu Qing with a serious gaze.
Xu Qing shook his head.
"I don't know why you don't do it. Perhaps it's because of your status that you can't do it. Or perhaps it's because of the checks and balances between you that you can't do it."
"
"That's not important. As for the time you said is too long, it's also not important.
What's important is that I've given you a possibility! "
"
"A possibility that I can accomplish once I grow stronger."
"
"As long as I complete the inheritance, even if I can't completely control the Ghost Emperor Mountain, I can still let you break free from the shackles of the Ghost Emperor Mountain. While you retain your immortal characteristics, you can become completely independent and obtain true freedom."
""
"This is a transaction. To you, it's just a chess piece. The Artifact Spirit must know this as well."
""
Xu Qing spoke seriously. This was the desire of the Ghost Emperor's three souls and seven spirits that he had analyzed based on his understanding of the past and the information from the Sword Holding Palace.
They yearned for independence and freedom, and they didn't want to lose their immortal status.
Jue Yang was silent. He had to admit that the hypothesis given by the Sword Holding Palace was logical and feasible. It was just as the other party had said. It was just a chess piece. It would be best if it succeeded, but if it failed, they wouldn't lose anything.
Thus, he looked at the black fog where the Heavenly Soul was.
"Since it's just a chess piece, it's not worth fighting the Holy Wave Tribe for it."
A sharp voice suddenly sounded from the black fog. It sounded like bones grinding against each other. It was extremely ear-piercing.
Xu Qing heaved a sigh of relief. At this point in the transaction, the value of his goods had been revealed.
In fact, he also knew that this was a storytelling. No one was stupid, but as long as his story was good enough, feasible, and logical enough, he could attract investment. Of course, the premise was whether it was worth it and how much to invest.
"Then the next step is to look at the price. I don't need you to go to the frontlines to fight against the Holy Wave Tribe. I only need you to attack once in the Corpse Prison!"
""
"By attacking once in exchange for this chess piece, you can obtain freedom in the future. You have one more line and one more possibility."
Xu Qing spoke softly.
This time, he didn't threaten them. What he said was true and in line with reality. Of course, the prerequisite was that he could grow and advance again, so it was still a story.
But this story was perfect, and the price to pay was relatively small.
For stupid people, they might be swayed by their emotions and make other judgments.
But obviously, these two souls weren't, so unless someone offered a better price, they might not agree.
The price was very small.
The Three Spirits Guarding the Dao Mountain fell silent.
