Negotiation was based on the premise that both parties possessed intelligence. However, Mu Chen was not too worried about this. Although the Jiu You Sparrow was a spiritual beast, a spiritual beast of its level would definitely have a higher intelligence than a human.
Mu Chen's mind was focused on the Jiu You Sparrow that was trapped in the cage. The latter's gaze was filled with a vicious aura as it stared right at him. The ferocious aura caused Mu Chen to have no doubt that the Jiu You Sparrow would definitely tear him to shreds if it had the chance.
It was really too difficult to tame a spiritual beast of this level.
"Cough..."
Mu Chen coughed dryly after being stared at by the Jiu You Sparrow. He tried his best to send a friendly thought over, "Erm... hello."
However, the Jiu You Sparrow remained unmoved in the face of his friendly method. The viciousness in its eyes did not weaken in the slightest.
"I know that you can understand what I'm saying..." Mu Chen helplessly said, "You only have yourself to blame for being in such a situation. I did not provoke you, yet you snuck into my body and even tried to erase my consciousness."
The Jiu You Sparrow coldly glanced at Mu Chen, before slowly shrinking its body. It elegantly extended its wings that were filled with black flames, before lazily lying down on the Mandala Flower.
"It's not beneficial for either of us to be in a deadlock like this. Why don't we discuss what will benefit both of us." Mu Chen tried to tempt the Jiu You @@ne-2 Sparrow.
However, the Jiu You Sparrow's eyes seemed to surge with ridicule in response to his enticement. It simply could not be bothered to respond.
"Hey, can't you give me some face? This is my place after all. Do you believe that I will use this thing to deal with you?" Mu Chen saw that Jiu You was ignoring him, and he couldn't help but become angry out of humiliation.
When the Jiu You Sparrow heard this, the ridicule in its eyes grew even more intense. Just when Mu Chen was infuriated by this, a special thought was finally transmitted over, "Despicable human, if you could control it, would you still need to talk nonsense with me?"
"You really do know how to communicate with humans!"
Sensing this thought, Mu Chen was slightly delighted. No matter what, this Jiu You Sparrow had finally communicated with him, even though that communication was filled with contempt and ridicule.
"You treacherous humans have such a glib tongue. You're merely trying to refine me because you've taken a fancy to my soul essence. These methods are extremely despicable." The Jiu You Sparrow's ice-cold intent transmitted over.
"Hmph, you speak as if you're just and honorable. Didn't you also want to erase my consciousness?
You only have yourself to blame for this. If you didn't have such bad intentions, why would you be trapped in my body? "Mu Chen sneered.
"Do you think that you can trap me like this?
The Jiu You Sparrow Clan possesses the bloodline of the ancient Immortal Bird. With your strength, it's impossible for you to kill me. My strength will gradually recover, and at that time, the first thing I'll do is to kill you! "The Jiu You Sparrow's intent was filled with a dense ferocity.
"Then come and try. Let's see who can last until the end!"
Mu Chen snorted coldly. He knew that it was impossible to negotiate with the Jiu You Sparrow. This damnable feathered beast was too arrogant, and it was impossible for it to discuss with him how to benefit both parties.
Mu Chen's intent gradually dispersed. His tightly shut eyes also opened, and he helplessly curled his lips. This damnable Jiu You Sparrow …
"I have to think of a way to solve this problem. Otherwise, it'll only be a matter of time before it becomes a disaster."
Mu Chen thought to himself. He didn't understand this Jiu You Sparrow very well. If what it said was true, perhaps Mu Chen would be doomed sooner or later. Therefore, he had to think of a way to solve this hidden danger.
However, Mu Chen also knew that it wasn't that easy to think of a solution. Currently, the only thing that could restrain this Jiu You Sparrow was the mysterious black paper in his body. However, Mu Chen had studied it again, but he still didn't gain anything. He could only helplessly give up. Perhaps his strength wasn't enough, and he was still unable to understand the mysteries of the mysterious black paper.
Therefore, the matter regarding the Jiu You Sparrow could only be done slowly.
In the next few days, Mu Chen, who was resting, still didn't give up. From time to time, he would try to communicate with the Jiu You Sparrow. However, the latter was indifferent to any of his words. It lay on the Mandala Flower, and its eyes were cold and filled with ridicule. It was as if it was watching Mu Chen perform a one-man show.
After experiencing this a few times, Mu Chen finally gave up on his naive actions. It seemed that it was impossible to reason with this Jiu You Sparrow. He could only increase his strength as soon as possible. Once he advanced to the Spirit Stage, he would possess the ability to refine Spiritual Beast's Soul Essence. At that time, he would be able to pose some threat to this Jiu You Sparrow.
At that time, perhaps this feathered beast would take him seriously.
After temporarily putting aside the matter regarding the Jiu You Sparrow, Mu Chen had been going to Mister Wen Ling's place for the past two days. According to the information he obtained from Mu Feng, it seemed that Mister Wen Ling was about to become a Rank 2 Spiritual Array Master. If he succeeded, it would be extremely good news for the Mu Territory.
After all, within the entire Northern Spiritual Realm, the number of Spiritual Array Masters that could reach Rank 2 would not exceed the number of fingers on one hand. In the past, the Mu Territory never had a Spiritual Array Master of this level. Therefore, if Mister Wen Ling succeeded, it would be a great help to the Mu Territory's reputation.
On the other hand, Mister Wen Ling, who was usually serious and inflexible, was now quite gentle towards Mu Chen. It was obvious that he had heard about the Entry Battle, where Mu Chen used a Spiritual Array to deal with Liu Mubai. This made him feel that he had gained a lot of face.
Suddenly, footsteps rang out in the quiet courtyard. Mister Wen Ling, who was cultivating with his eyes closed, opened his eyes and let out a faint smile. Everyone within the Mu Clan knew that he did not like to be disturbed. Therefore, no one would come to his place at this time, except for Mu Chen.
"Hehe, Mister Wen Ling, I've come to see when you will breakthrough."
As Wen Ling expected, Mu Chen's figure appeared at the entrance of the courtyard. The boy smiled at him and cupped his hands.
Wen Ling laughed as he looked at the boy. He shook his head helplessly and said, "Don't try to trick me. If you want the Array Diagram, just say it. You've been pestering me for a few days. Even if you don't find it annoying, I am."
Seeing that Wen Ling had seen through his thoughts, Mu Chen awkwardly scratched his head. Array Diagrams were the most important things to a Spiritual Array Master. It was a bit unreasonable for him to keep plundering Wen Ling's collection of Array Diagrams.
Wen Ling looked at the awkward Mu Chen and smiled. He then waved his hand and asked him to come over, "From tomorrow onwards, I will go into closed-door training to become a Rank 2 Spiritual Array Master. Once I become a Rank 2 Spiritual Array Master, the Array Diagrams from before will no longer be the most suitable. There's no harm in teaching them to you."
Hearing this, Mu Chen's face was filled with joy.
"How many Spiritual Seals can you condense right now?" Wen Ling looked at Mu Chen and asked.
"Eighteen."
Mu Chen thought for a while and said. Because of training, the Spiritual Energy in his body was gradually becoming stronger. Therefore, the Spiritual Seals that he condensed were also increasing along with his Spiritual Energy.
Although Wen Ling was already mentally prepared, when he heard Mu Chen's words, he couldn't help but smack his lips. The latter's talent in Spiritual Array Cultivation was really amazing. Eighteen Spiritual Seals. Even among Rank 1 Spiritual Array Masters, this was considered quite good.
"The" Devouring Tigerblaze Spiritual Array "that I taught you before can be ranked in the top three among all the Spiritual Arrays I know."
Wen Ling smiled. He clenched his fist and an array diagram that was flickering with a faint lightning glow appeared in his hand: "This array diagram is called the" Nine Heavenly Lightning Spiritual Array ". It can be considered as my strongest Spiritual Array."
Hearing this, Mu Chen's eyes suddenly lit up. Was this Mister Wen Ling's strongest Spiritual Array?
"This Spiritual Array requires a total of twenty Spiritual Seals. Even among Rank 1 Arrays, it is considered to be at the top. Of course, the complexity of this Spiritual Array is comparable to some Rank 2 Spiritual Arrays. Originally, the current you would not be able to touch it. However, since you can enter the" Heart Array "state, the difficulty will be greatly reduced."
When talking about the Heart Array State, even Mister Wen Ling could not help but reveal a hint of envy on his face. To a Spiritual Array Master, this kind of state was too coveted.
"Once this" Nine Heavenly Lightning Spiritual Array "is successfully laid down, no one within the Spiritual Rotation Stage will be able to block it. Even a Spirit Stage Initial Phase powerhouse would not dare to underestimate it."
Mu Chen's heart heated up when he heard this. This "Nine Heavenly Lightning Spiritual Array" was actually this strong.
"I'll hand this Diagram Array over to you. However, you must remember, if you're not confident, don't mess around. Otherwise, you'll be devoured by the Spiritual Array." Wen Ling handed the Diagram Array over to Mu Chen and reminded him seriously.
"Yes!"
Mu Chen hastily replied. Shortly after, he carefully received the Spiritual Array Diagram and slowly opened it up. Instantly, lightning surged into his eyes. The Spiritual Array Diagram that looked messy in the eyes of ordinary people, but was filled with profound trajectories in the eyes of a Spiritual Array Master, was imprinted into his eyes.
Mu Chen stood on the spot and stared at the Array Diagram in his hand. His expression was intoxicated as if he was immersed in it. Seeing this, Wen Ling faintly smiled and quietly left the courtyard.
When Mu Chen woke up from his intoxicated state, the sky gradually darkened. He also hurriedly returned to his room. In the next few days, he focused all his attention on the "Nine Heavenly Lightning Spiritual Array". However, he also understood that even with the help of the Heart Array State, he would not be able to lay down this Spiritual Array. Therefore, he did not act recklessly and only studied it over and over again. He firmly remembered the complicated Spiritual Energy light rays in his mind.
For an entire five days, Mu Chen was immersed in studying Spiritual Arrays. Until one day, he suddenly heard noises coming from outside the courtyard. Only then did he walk out with a frown. Thereafter, he saw a few guards rushing towards the front courtyard. The atmosphere seemed to be a little strange.
"What's going on?" Mu Chen stopped a guard and asked in a deep voice.
"Young master."
When the guard saw Mu Chen, he hurriedly bowed. He hesitated for a moment and said: "Something big happened. A city in our Mu Territory was attacked and City Lord Chen Xiong was killed."
When Mu Chen heard this, his expression suddenly changed.
