Chapter 1613  Mercenary World

For a top-quality spiritual stone, it is not impossible for the swordsmen to finally meet.

Just when all the spiritual cultivators fell silent, Xiao Mian offered his price.

"A mid-level Nascent Soul monk, one top-quality spiritual stone; a high-level Nascent Soul monk, three top-quality spiritual stones - accordingly, I will compensate for the price difference with other materials!"

Xiao Mian's price was unavoidable for the other party not to accept.

Sure enough, after a short discussion, Lu Yu agreed to Xiao Mian.

Next, there are some details.

With these mercenaries, Xiao Mian did not expect them to go into battle to kill the enemy and protect South Vietnam, but at a critical moment, it would be good if they could protect the South Vietnamese monks.

Anyway, for these spiritual practitioners, death is inevitable in this world.

Of course, the premise is that Xiao Mian must pay the commission first.

Otherwise, once the spiritual cultivator suffers a fatal attack, he will be transported back to the spirit world. If Xiao Mian agreed to their commission, wouldn't it be in vain?

Xiao Mian has no objection to the idea of ​​paying commissions in advance.

On Lu Yu's side, he calculated the number and grade of the spiritual cultivators hired. This time the mercenaries cost Xiao Mian a total of twenty-one top-quality spiritual stones.

After discussion between the two parties, Xiao Mian agreed to pay the commission one month later.

In fact, Xiao Mian can take out twenty-one top-quality spiritual stones right now.

There are a large number of top-quality spiritual stones preserved in Duzun Mansion.

But Xiao Mian couldn't do that, he had to act embarrassed.

This month, Xiao Mian had nothing to do in Wan Zong City.

When I have some free time, I go into Duzun Mansion and look at this and that.

A month passed quietly, and Xiao Mian brought twenty-one top-quality spiritual stones to the trading location, but halfway there, Xiao Mian's expression became solemn.

Observing through the black cloth, there is a Tianzun spiritual cultivator at the transaction location!

Is it possible that Lu Yu wants to take advantage of others?

Thinking like this, Xiao Mian's body swayed and disappeared.

Soon, Xiao Mian saw Lu Yu and his party.

Standing at the head was no longer Lu Yu, but another spiritual cultivator.

That person is clearly in the Heavenly Realm!

After waiting and waiting, Xiao Mian didn't show up, and the Spirit Realm Heavenly Lord was quite displeased.

"Little junior sister! What is going on?"

"This...Senior Brother! How dare my little sister deceive Senior Brother! Something must have gone wrong somewhere, and that Fellow Daoist Xiao wasted his time..."

"Hmph! If it weren't for your face, I wouldn't waste time in Nanyue State. If he doesn't come again, don't blame Brother Yu for not giving you face!"

"..."

Lu Yu looked embarrassed and secretly scolded Xiao Mian.

Xiao Mian is also depressed!

But looking at the conversation between Lu Yu and the senior brother, it doesn't seem like he is trying to harm himself. Could it be that this senior brother also wants to make some extra money?

Thinking of this, Xiao Mian decided to take a chance.

Big deal - just pat your butt and leave!

With Xiao Mian's current cultivation level and the Geomagnetic Star Light Shuttle in his hand, the ordinary Heavenly Lord really can't keep him - not to mention that Xiao Mian's hands are really itchy with Tai Chi's new life.

"Fellow Daoist Lu! Please forgive Xiao for being rude! I don't know that this senior..."

"Fellow Daoist Xiao! You are finally here! This is Mr. Lu's senior brother! This senior brother came here specifically to find me. Hearing that Fellow Daoist Xiao intended to form a mercenary army and was very sincere, senior brother wasted his time and wanted to fight with me. Let’s talk to fellow Daoist Xiao!”

"Junior Xiao Mian, I have met my senior!"

"Just tell me! How much high-quality spiritual stones do you plan to spend on hiring me?"

When Xiao Mian heard this, his eyes narrowed and his thoughts changed.

Tianzun's spiritual practice is definitely not comparable to that of ordinary Nascent Soul monks.

There is one top-quality spiritual stone for the mid-level Nascent Soul, and three top-quality spiritual stones for the high-level Nascent Soul.

According to this price, the top level of Nascent Soul should be nine top-quality spiritual stones.

Tianzun's spiritual practice, multiplied by three, that is twenty-seven top-quality spiritual stones!

The price of the eldest brother alone exceeds that of everyone else.

If this senior brother can really take people's money and eliminate disasters for others, then the money is worth spending. Just be afraid - take the money in front and leave behind!

After all, twenty-seven top-quality spiritual stones are not a small amount!

At that time, who should Xiao Mian go to to cry to?

It's just that Xiao Mian can't explain clearly this kind of twist.

After all, the other party is a heavenly spiritual cultivator!

Xiao Mian was not afraid of the other party if he made him angry, but Lu Yu would definitely be affected, and all Xiao Mian's previous efforts would be in vain.

"Are you afraid that Hong will break his promise and make himself fat?"

"this……"

"Don't worry! I, Hong Yuanda, have always said the same thing in my life - twenty-seven top-quality spiritual stones. If you can agree to it, I will end this spiritual war and the sword in my hand will obey your orders!"

"Senior Hong, are you a sword cultivator?"

"What? Do you have any objections?"

"Senior has misunderstood! There is nothing wrong with the price of twenty-seven top-quality spiritual stones! However, the matter is serious and I can't make the decision. I ask senior to wait for me for three days!"

"Okay! If you don't come in three days, I will leave on my own!"

"Okay!" With a promise, Xiao Mian handed over the top-quality spiritual stone agreed upon in advance to Lu Yu, and then saluted with his fist: "Friend Lu Dao! See you later!"

After saying this, Xiao Mian left calmly.

Lu Yu distributed the twenty-one top-quality spiritual stones one by one. Just when everyone was about to disperse, Hong Yuanda, who had been silent, suddenly spoke.

"Everyone! It is my Junior Sister Lu who initiated this matter. If anyone breaks his promise and returns to the spirit world without authorization, it will be me, Junior Sister Lu, who breaks his promise! Everyone is a spiritual practitioner. In the future, Hong will not look up when he bows his head in the spirit world. I will settle the score with you!"

As soon as Hong Yuanda said this, many spiritual practitioners said they did not dare to do it.

Soon, only Lu Yu and Hong Yuanda were left at the scene.

"Big Brother! Do you think he is willing to hire you?"

"Little Sister! Do you think I am not worth the price?"

"Of course not! The Tianxie Bawu sword in my hand is known as the best among the younger generation of the sect. I just didn't expect you to be so valuable!"

"Yes! Twenty-seven pieces of top-grade spirit stones really moved my sword heart!"

"Brother! If we do this, Master won't blame us when we return to the spirit world, right?"

"No!" After a pause, Hong Yuanda said kindly: "I am from the Follow Your Heart Cliff lineage. I have never been afraid of the powerful, greedy for money, or guilty. What I emphasize is to follow my heart. If that kid can really raise enough top-grade spirit stones this time, it is worth it for Tianxie Bawu sword to move! I am just afraid that others will say something and I can't make the decision!"

"Brother, you are wrong! This Nanyue Xiao Mian is extraordinary..."

At that moment, Lu Yu told Hong Yuanda about Xiao Mian's legendary life.

Of course, most of these rumors are hearsay and are not credible.

The two were talking about Xiao Mian's secrets here, but Xiao Mian secretly turned back and saw the whole scene. Even Hong Yuanda, who was at the Tianzun realm, did not notice it.

Although the sword cultivators have amazing destructive power, they are rarely proficient in the spiritual consciousness.

As long as Xiao Mian has no hostility, the saying of the sword heart communicating with the spirit will not be triggered.

Follow your heart and do whatever you want?

Tianxie Ba Wu Jian?

It seems very awesome...

Thinking of this, Xiao Mian has made a decision.

Perhaps because of the relationship with Jingchu, Xiao Mian has always had a good impression of sword cultivators. The sword cultivator lineage is indeed mostly people who keep their words and keep their promises.

Of course, there are also sword cultivators like Yunhai Jianzun who change their minds according to the situation.

But just for Hong Yuanda's last words, Xiao Mian accepted this bet!

Isn't it just 27 pieces of top-grade spirit stones?

At worst - just treat it as a waste of money!

Although Xiao Mian did not have many top-grade spiritual stones, he had a lot of them sealed up by Du Zun in Du Zun Mansion, perhaps for emergency use.

Twenty-seven top-grade spiritual stones were indeed a huge expense.

Because top-grade spiritual stones were always in short supply.

But Xiao Mian was not afraid - who told him to have the Ruyi Treasure Mirror?

To put it bluntly, top-grade spiritual stones were not much different from lower-grade spiritual stones, except that the spiritual energy contained in top-grade spiritual stones was much greater than that of lower-grade spiritual stones.

With the Ruyi Treasure Mirror, Xiao Mian could make top-grade spiritual stones as he pleased!

As long as there was enough spiritual energy, he could have as many as he wanted!

Because of this confidence, Xiao Mian decided to trust Hong Yuanda!

Three days later, Xiao Mian arrived as promised.

But a moment later, Hong Yuanda came as promised.

The two said nothing, and Xiao Mian directly handed the commission to Hong Yuanda.

"Xiao Mian! Aren't you afraid that I will run away?"

"Yes! But I believe in you!"

"..., OK! What do you want me to do?"

"Senior Hong has a special status and a high level of cultivation. It is not appropriate for him to act with other Taoist friends! How about this! Senior Hong, just do whatever you want and act according to the situation!"

"Do whatever you want?"

Hong Yuanda narrowed his eyes when he heard this, but Xiao Mian didn't care at all.

"What a good way to do whatever you want! I know what to do!" As he turned and left, Hong Yuanda said calmly: "Don't worry! I'm worth the price!"

"..."

Watching Hong Yuanda leave silently, Xiao Mian also disappeared.

This is a bet - if Hong Yuanda really performs his duties and has amazing combat power, it is Xiao Mian's unique vision; but if Hong Yuanda leaves without fighting, or if he looks good but is useless, it is Xiao Mian's blindness - it has nothing to do with Hong Yuanda!

Xiao Mian just thought about it, his eyebrows moved, and he took out a Beidou Si Nan Pan.

Seeing who contacted him, Xiao Mian's expression changed slightly.

The next moment, Xiao Mian appeared directly in Wanzong City.

In a house, Xiao Mian met Di Qingyun.

Before that, it was Di Qingyun who contacted Xiao Mian through Beidou Si Nan Pan.

When he met Xiao Mian, Di Qingyun did not keep him in suspense and revealed his true intention.

The ancient blood mark was finally successfully cracked by Di Qingyun after Xiao Mian's blood funding, and then, the copy was completed yesterday.

In other words, Di Qingyun overcame the innate barrier between the human and demon races.

Hearing this, Xiao Mian directly released the geomagnetic starlight shuttle.

Carrying Di Qingyun and A Yun, Xiao Mian flew straight to the Nanyan Demon Realm.

It was only a quarter of an hour before and after, and the three of them had reached the Ten Thousand Demons Palace.

But at this time, a tiger roar resounded throughout the area of ​​100 miles around the Ten Thousand Demons Palace.

The Ten Thousand Demon King descended from the sky, staring at the geomagnetic starlight shuttle with a covetous look.

It was not until Xiao Mian and the other two walked out of the geomagnetic starlight shuttle that the Ten Thousand Demon King was stunned and transformed into a white-clothed female cultivator.

The white-clothed female cultivator at this time was a few years older than the 17 or 18-year-old white-clothed girl before. She was less immature and more charming.

"Hey? I was wondering who it was. It turned out to be Xiao's younger brother?" A pair of beautiful eyes stared at Xiao Mian, and the white-clothed female cultivator asked in a gentle voice: "Are you here to bring drinks to your sister?"

"..., senior! You don't suit this style!"

"No... not suitable?"

"Senior Demon King! How come you suddenly grew up?" It was Ayun. It was the first time she saw the white-clothed female cultivator who had grown up. The white-clothed female cultivator was also overjoyed to see Ayun. She looked Ayun up and down and cheered: "Ayun! You are back?"

"Your servant greets the Demon King!" Ayun bowed to the white-clothed female cultivator, stood up, and said excitedly: "He succeeded! He succeeded!"

The white-clothed female cultivator was puzzled by Ayun.

Soon, Ayun explained the whole story to the white-clothed female cultivator.

In front of the white-clothed female cultivator and Xiao Mian, Di Qingyun told the results of his research over the years...

With the support of Xiao Mian's spiritual blood, Di Qingyun's research finally went smoothly and got on the right track. After that, Di Qingyun broke the blood mark after several years.

Di Qingyun contacted Xiao Mian as soon as possible.

Let's say that Xiao Mian didn't understand Di Qingyun's explanation!

Xiao Mian was too lazy to understand a long list of terms and theories.

"Senior Di! Let's let the facts speak!"

After that, Xiao Mian led everyone out of the Ten Thousand Demons Hall and called the Golden Wolf.

Today, the Golden Wolf has cultivated to the peak level of the Golden Core, but due to his limited qualifications, he has been unable to break through the bottleneck and cannot condense the Nascent Soul.

After migrating to the Nanyan Demon Realm with Xiao Mian, the Golden Wolf has been living here, traveling around the mountains and rivers on weekdays, and he is free and easy.

"Brother Jinlang! Long time no see, where is your golden-toothed rock elephant?"

"Golden-toothed rock elephant? Forget it! That guy has always refused to obey me! If it weren't for Brother Xiao, you repeatedly told me not to use the soul contract, I would have..." Halfway through his words, seeing the white-clothed female cultivator staring at him, Jinlang swallowed his saliva and said, "The golden-toothed rock elephant has lost its proper form in the Nanyan Demon Realm and is having fun!"

Having said that, Jinlang still summoned the golden-toothed rock elephant through secret techniques.

The golden-toothed rock elephant was more than one and a half feet tall and about a foot long. It stood in the sun, shining brightly, like a small golden mountain.

The earthy brown stone skin was like a golden essence. The most dazzling thing was the two golden teeth, like a golden sword forged by nature, pointing angrily to the sky!

What a majestic golden-toothed rock elephant!

The golden-toothed rock elephant is a mutant of the jade-toothed rock elephant.

The future achievement should not be limited to the sixth level of the Jade Tooth Rock Elephant.

Now this Golden Tooth Rock Elephant has cultivated to the peak level of the sixth level. It is only one step away from overcoming the transformation tribulation and becoming a seventh-level demon cultivator.

If the Golden Wolf wants to subdue this Golden Tooth Rock Elephant, its cultivation must be one level higher than it, otherwise the Golden Tooth Rock Elephant will not recognize the strength of the Golden Wolf.

Although the Golden Wolf has been practicing hard over the years, it has achieved little results.

Moreover, the Golden Tooth Rock Elephant is also making progress. After a while, they fell into a deadlock.

Today, Xiao Mian is here to break this deadlock!

After that, Di Qingyun helped the Golden Wolf and the Golden Tooth Rock Elephant to sign a contract.

The blood mark that Di Qingyun studied is, to put it bluntly, a kind of contract.

Both humans and demons coexist peacefully, with mutual benefit and fairness.

During the continuation of the blood mark, humans can use the power of demon cultivators, and demon cultivators may also get help from humans. Both parties voluntarily conclude the contract.

If one party feels that the contract is unfair, it can also terminate the contract unilaterally.

This kind of contract is very similar to the fair contract prevalent in Chu County...

Di Qingyun took out a small porcelain bottle, collected a little blood from the golden wolf and the golden-toothed rock elephant, and then poured it into the porcelain bottle and shook it evenly.

The blood in the porcelain bottle is in you and in me, and there is no difference between them.

Using this mixed blood as paint, Di Qingyun painted a mysterious symbol on the forehead of the golden wolf and the golden-toothed rock elephant respectively.

After drawing the symbol, Di Qingyun looked up to the sky with a solemn face and prayed.

"Ancient righteous god - Wahuang Holy Mother! Please witness this pair of contracts, and may you protect them until the contract is terminated - with your holy name, you will prove the heaven and earth!"

It's strange!

As Di Qingyun's prayer ended, the blood-colored mark on the foreheads of the man and the monster flashed with blood and disappeared into their bodies.

The golden wolf's expression moved, and even the golden-toothed rock elephant trembled all over.

The next moment, the golden wolf looked at the golden-toothed rock elephant, and the golden-toothed rock elephant looked at the golden wolf.

Without any warning, a man and a demon fought fiercely.

"Senior Di! This... is no accident, right?"

"It doesn't matter! They are fighting for their own initiative! If one side is too strong, it will have more say; if the two sides are equally strong, they will be on equal footing - speaking with strength, in ancient times, is an unwritten rule!"

"Even now, it is still the same!" Seeing that the fight between the golden wolf and the golden-toothed rock elephant was fierce but not dangerous, Xiao Mian let it go. Facing Di Qingyun, Xiao Mian asked kindly: "Do you still need to ask the Queen Mother of Wa for the blood mark?"

"Senior Xiao doesn't know: this Queen Mother of Wa is the common ancestor of humans and demons!"

Taking advantage of the fight between the golden wolf and the golden-toothed rock elephant, Di Qingyun had nothing to do, so he simply told Xiao Mian about the Queen Mother of Wa that he was studying...
