569 Chapter 569-living passage
“President Qian, you’re joking, right?” Xiao Minghui sneered. If the thunderwind Chamber of Commerce only offered one billion, who would offer the remaining nine billion? You still have many Chamber of Commerce alliances behind you, so you should at least bear eight billion. We’ll think of a way to get the remaining two billion.”
“That’s right, that’s how it should be!”
Xun Zhiming also nodded in agreement. “As the saying goes, with great power comes great responsibility. Almost all the merchant Union’s guilds in South Fire City are here. Eight billion is a piece of cake.”
Qianlin,”Qianqian.”
He lost his temper and sighed, ” “You two, I think you really don’t have any sincerity. You’re still thinking of scheming against me at this time. The current situation is no longer a battle between you and the merchant Union. We should all work together to deal with the Big Dipper sect. If the Big Dipper sect becomes big, I’m afraid the first step will be to swallow all of you. Although our thunderwind Chamber of Commerce will be weakened, we’re still one of the seven leaders of the merchant Union. Does the Big Dipper sect really dare to start a war with us? I’ve discussed this with the merchant Union, and we’ll bear five billion for this ten billion. If you still refuse, then this matter is over, and I’ll go back home!”
Xun Zhiming and Xiao Minghui’s eyes darkened. What Gao Lin said was right, and he hit their soft spot. After looking at each other, Xun Zhiming said in a deep voice, ” alright, then we’ll each take on half of it. We’ll each offer five billion!
Xiao Minghui glanced at the lone cultivators at the outermost perimeter and frowned. “What about these people? Don’t tell me we can’t make them pay a drop of blood and get the benefits for free?”
“These paupers,” sneered Gao Lin,”do you think you can extort a single primeval stone from them?” He turned around and went to discuss with the other associations of the merchant Union.
Xiao Minghui shook his head helplessly. It was indeed impossible for those itinerant martial artists to pay primordial stones. He immediately started discussing with Xun Zhiming. The two of them started to wrangle endlessly again, hoping that the other party would have more.
The overall efficiency was quite high. Everyone was afraid that the people of the Big Dipper sect would seize the first opportunity and grab the primordial stones, so they did not care about the small amount. Soon, they had gathered ten billion mid-grade primordial stones and handed them to Yunxiao.
Oh? ” Yunxiao was surprised. you really have so many Yuan stones with you? ” Tsk tsk, it seems that I’m still too kind. The merchant Union and the local tyrants are indeed rich. Don’t be so polite next time.”
li Yunxiao! Qiu Lin said angrily, ” don’t go too far! They may be afraid of you, but my thunderwind Chamber of Commerce isn’t!”
yes, yes, I understand. Let’s go! Yunxiao smiled. Hanxuan, come with us, ” he said to jinxuan. I’ll be worried if you stay outside.
Hanxuan’s heart was warm, but she still felt uncomfortable. I’m sorry, young master Yun. I’ve been a burden to you all this time.
Yunxiao laughed. It’s all thanks to you and me that we’ve earned so many origin stones. Tsk tsk, 10 billion, I hope you can drag me down a few more times.”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThe rest of the people followed behind, their faces dark and their eyes gloomy.
Under Yunxiao’s lead, all of them went deep into the black hole. It was pitch black inside, but it did not affect their vision. Moreover, the hole was very wide, not as narrow as they had imagined.
The entire passage was built with huge stones. Stepping on it, one could see that it was made of the fourth-tier material, diamond Jade, which was exactly the same as the materials used for the arena in the Big Dipper sect’s sect competition. Moreover, the passage was more than two meters high, and some of the burly men didn’t feel crowded.
it seems that it really is the treasure of the North Scorpion sect, ” Yunxiao said. this labyrinth is so magnificent. It must have cost a lot of resources to build it. He touched the surrounding walls with his hand and said, ” “These were all cut by sword Qi, otherwise it would be impossible for them to be so smooth. It seems that the Big Dipper sect had to use a large number of martial artists to build this passage!”
Xun Zhiming said,”that’s right. From the looks of it, the cost of building it will not be lower than that of the 10 arenas.” Look at these bones. Judging from the time, it does seem to be the time when the North Scorpion sect took out the treasure. I wonder if there are any left.”
Everyone looked at the broken bones in the passage that led to the depths of the darkness. They felt a sense of desolation in their hearts, not knowing if they would be the next one. After stepping onto the path of martial arts, he had long been aware that he could fall at any time.
The atmosphere in the passage gradually became somewhat oppressive. Hundreds of people walked through it, but there was no other sound other than the sound of silent walking.
“Something’s wrong!”
Yunxiao suddenly shouted and stopped.
The people around him were all startled by the sudden voice. Ying Lin frowned and said, ” “What’s wrong?” he asked.
no! Yunxiao said seriously, ” I’m definitely not in the wrong place! I remember the route on the map very clearly, but the passage is wrong!”
“What do you mean the passage is wrong?”
“It doesn’t matter if you remember wrongly. You can just walk through it again,” Xun Zhiming said.
Yunxiao shook his head and said, ” I’ve been feeling strange along the way. I keep feeling that something is wrong. Can you see how many people are still here? ”
Everyone was stunned, not knowing what was going on. Gao Lin and the other two looked back and were immediately shocked. They exclaimed in horror,”How could this be? Where is he?”
The group behind him was actually shortened by more than half. By visual inspection, there were only about 50 people!
“Magnet!”
Xiao Minghui gasped and said in shock, ” “How did this happen?”
This time, everyone was shocked, especially those at the back. They were originally standing at the front of the line, but now they had become the back. They didn’t even notice how the people around them were!
Hanxuan also felt a chill in her heart. She hurriedly grabbed Yunxiao’s arm, and only then did she feel a little warmth and security.
Ying Lin was also a little scared, and he said in shock, ” “What’s going on?”
didn’t I already tell you? ” Yunxiao said. the passage is wrong.
“Qianqian, please explain clearly,” said qianlin.
ten billion primordial stones, ” Yunxiao said. I’m only responsible for leading the way. I’m not responsible for spreading knowledge.
Everyone,”hehe.”
Xun Zhiming suppressed the urge to slap him to death and said, ” “Young master Yun, aren’t you being too unkind? Everyone’s private property has already been exploited by you. Even the thunderwind Chamber of Commerce is not as black as you!”
“Old b * stard Chu, do you want to die?!” Yelled Gao Lin angrily.
alright, ” Yunxiao said. I’ll lose all the way. I hope that when we find the treasure later, you can give me more on account of my hard work.”
Xun Zhiming’s face was full of black lines. hurry up and tell me. I’ll definitely give you more.
there’s a very interesting martial technique in your Eastern Region called ‘acupoint shifting’, ” Yunxiao said. have you heard of it? ”
Xun Zhiming nodded and said, ” of course, this isn’t a profound martial technique. I’m sure everyone here knows it. It’s just the circulation of essence force to change the movement of the meridians and acupuncture points in the body. But what does this have to do with the passageway? ”
Yunxiao smiled and said,’it’ll be easier to explain if you know such a martial technique. This channel is equivalent to the hundreds of extraordinary meridians in the human body. Those people just now were moved away by the ‘shifting of acupoints’. ”
“What?”
Everyone was shocked, their faces blank, unable to understand what this meant.
“How can the passageway ‘shift positions’?” asked Chu Lin with a frown.
because this passage is alive! Yunxiao said. it’s a living passage!
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“A living passage?”
Everyone was shocked. Xun Zhiming laughed coldly and said, ” Young master Yun, I know you like to be weird, but this joke is not funny at all!
it’s not funny because it’s not a joke! Yunxiao said seriously. this passage is alive!
His words were firm and decisive, causing everyone to shiver. Hanxuan’s grip on his arm tightened.
this passage is actually an array, ” Yunxiao continued. the southern Fire Crystal Gold mine in the entire mountain range is the source of energy, and it has been maintaining its operation for thousands of years. That map should be incomplete. If we cut off the surrounding mineral veins, we can use the map to continue forward, but the formation is constantly operating, so a dead map is completely useless.”
Xun Zhiming asked,”then what should we do?” Should we go out now to cut off the mine vein?”
I’ve already performed the displacement and acupoint switching technique, ” Yunxiao said with a smile. can you still walk out of here? ”
Xiao Minghui said,”then what should we do?” Young master Yun didn’t look nervous at all, so he must have a way. However, are those who were shifted away in any danger?”
I’m not nervous because I have ten billion primordial stones with me, ” Yunxiao said. it’s enough for me to use here for more than ten years.
“Zhenzhen, young master Yun, stop joking!” Xiao Minghui said.
Now, everyone had the urge to strangle Yunxiao to death, but they could not.
Yunxiao chuckled and said, ” follow me, everyone. Keep up with me. Don’t get shifted again. If you are teleported to another passage, I really can’t do anything. He explained, ” these passages are all connected to the center of the array source. They absorb the energy from the southern Fire Crystal Gold mine. All the energy comes from the array source. As long as I can sense the energy fluctuations, and combine it with the map in my mind, it won’t be difficult to find the central array source.
“Energy fluctuations?”
“You can sense such a weak energy fluctuation?” asked Ying Lin in shock.
I can’t sense it in the air, of course, ” Yunxiao said. but the fluctuation of the artifact rhythm of these Vajra jades is disturbed by the energy of the southern Fire golden crystal, and some changes will occur. Follow these changes and walk to the center of the array source.
young master Yun! Xiao Minghui was secretly surprised and praised, ” you are indeed a seventh-tier great Alchemist!
Only then did the crowd remember that this man had an even more terrifying identity-a seventh-tier great Alchemist!
Looking at the young man in front of them, thinking of his appalling combat strength, and his identity as a seventh-tier Alchemist, all of them felt extremely depressed and desperate. With such a huge difference, it was simply impossible to live.
Slowly, Yunxiao sensed the fluctuations of fire element coming from the wall and began to slow down.
At this time, in order to not be left behind and teleported away, the martial artists behind all took out their weapons and held tightly to each other. Finally, more than 50 people were not left behind and slowly moved forward.
After the time it took to brew a cup of tea, the passage suddenly opened up, and an extremely strong heat wave hit them in the face. The whole world became red, and the liquid Southern Fire Crystal Gold was flowing in front of them!
