Qin Yang seemed to have been persuaded. His eyes shone brightly and his breathing became rapid. "What about Zhongli Shan? He is Qin Yue's teacher. With his support, Qin Yue will be in big trouble! "
Li Yi sneered in his heart, but his face was serious. "Zhongli Shan's strength has improved a lot these years. We don't have the confidence to get rid of him. But if we kill Queen Siao Qing, we can be responsible for restraining Zhongli Shan so that he can't help Qin Yue. The third plan is to wait for Prince Xiao to rise to power. With a single call, the world will submit to him! "
With a single call, the world will submit to him!
Qin Yang's face turned red. He tried to calm himself down and said slowly, "What benefits do you want from the Hundred Warring Kingdoms? Kunjin City and White-Head Mountain cannot be given to you! "
He had led troops for many years and knew the geography of the country. If a city or a town was lost, the Hundred Warring Kingdoms' cavalry would come south. He wouldn't even have a bargaining chip.
Li Yi laughed and said amiably, "What Prince Qin said is different. Since we are willing to help Prince Qin like this, we naturally treat Prince Qin as a family. Hundred Warring Kingdoms' condition is very simple. Your country will withdraw from this Higher Nation Battle. Apart from giving us some material help, you must also help Hundred Warring Kingdoms to obtain the position of Higher Nation. "
Qin Yang raised his eyebrows and said in disbelief, "That simple?"
Li Yi smiled. "That simple. To be honest, with Aquasky Kingdom's current strength, it will be difficult for us to compete for the next Higher Nation Battle. Hundred Warring Kingdoms has been recuperating for the past five years. Under His Majesty's wise leadership, our country's strength is getting stronger day by day. This time, the ranking battle is almost in the bag. Of course, other opponents are also very strong. So, we need Prince Qin Yang to help us ascend to the position! "
Qin Yang started to ponder. Aquasky Kingdom's decline was inevitable. But he had ambition. As long as he ascended to the throne, he would be able to ascend to the position of Higher Nation in a few years! "How can I believe that you will retreat after besieging Kunjin City?" he asked in a deep voice.
Li Yi smiled. "Even if we take a detour and besiege Kunjin City, as long as Li Changfeng holds his ground and waits for Li Chunyang's rescue, we'll suffer heavy losses if he attacks us from both the inside and outside. The ranking tournament is just around the corner, my Hundred Warring States does not want to waste our strength for no reason. The purpose of this deployment is to contain Li Chunyang and help the First Prince ascend the throne! " He took out a list and handed it to Qin Yang with a smile. "These are some of the items that our country has requested for aid. I hope that after First Prince ascends to the throne, you will be able to fulfill them."
Qin Yang took a look at the list, and his face immediately turned green. Although he had already guessed that they would not let him off easily, the extortion was too blatant. Other than a large amount of gold coins, food, and equipment, there were also fifty level one, fifteen level two, and three level three Profound Weapons. Five hundred level one medicinal pills, a hundred level two medicinal pills, and twenty level three medicinal pills!
"Li Yi, you've gone too far! You've almost emptied our Tianshui Country with such a huge amount of items! " Qin Yang threw the list out furiously. Gao Feng glanced at it from the side, and his face also turned extremely ugly.
Li Yi smiled. "These things are just worldly possessions. Compared with the First Prince's throne, I think the First Prince should be able to weigh which is more important. If the First Prince has made up his mind, you can come to me at any time. "
He dipped his hand in the water and wrote down his temporary address on the table. Then, he wandered away with a smile.
Qin Yang's face was as calm as water, and he gloomily pondered in the hall. His subordinates also looked at each other and discussed in a low voice.
Li Yunxiao and Jia Rong were still in closed-door training in the Alchemist Guild.
"This is the twentieth one!" Jia Rong wiped the sweat from his forehead and took out a milky white immemorial pill from a black alchemy furnace. Although his face was as pale as a withered leaf, his eyes were shining with joy.
"En, take a Soul Nourishing Pill and continue after you're done cultivating," Li Yunxiao sat in the middle of the formation and closed his eyes. "Take a Thousand Bird Pill and bring it over."
"Yes!" Jia Rong replied. He walked to a long table and placed the pills he had just refined into a transparent jade box. There was already a pile of pills that were exactly the same as the one he had just refined. Jia Rong's heart was filled with complicated emotions.
These pills were called Dark Flame Pills, and they were genuine level two medicinal pills. Only a level two Alchemist could refine them. However, under Li Yunxiao's guidance, he could easily refine them. Not only that, but he could also produce them in batches like an assembly line.
He reached into the other two jade boxes and fished out a small green pill and a light yellow pill. He frowned after taking them out. "Young Master Yun, there's only one Soul Nourishing Pill left. There aren't many Thousand Bird Pills left either."
Li Yunxiao's eyes were still closed. "After you take this Soul Nourishing Pill and recover your soul power, refine a cauldron of Soul Nourishing Pills first, then stop refining the Profound Flame Pill and help me refine some Thousand Bird Pills."
"I, I, I'll refine the Soul Nourishing Pill and Thousand Bird Pill?" Jia Rong's body shook. "Young Master Yun, you, you're going to give me the recipes for the Soul Nourishing Pill and Thousand Bird Pill?"
Li Yunxiao frowned slightly. He opened his eyes and threw a recipe at Jia Rong. "Why are you still acting like a newbie after following me for so long? These are just low-grade pills. They're just street goods. What are you so excited about? Why can't you stay calm! "
Jia Rong hurriedly ran over to pick up the recipe. He was so excited that his body trembled. He hadn't even taken the Soul Nourishing Pill, but he seemed to have completely recovered. He didn't dare to make a sound, afraid of being scolded again. Although being scolded wasn't a bad thing.
The Soul Nourishing Pill wasn't some street goods. It was an upgraded product of a rank one Soul Nourishing Pill. It was a rank two pill, but it seemed to be even more powerful than some rank two Soul Nourishing Pills. In the past, Jia Rong would need at least three days to recover after using other rank two Soul Nourishing Pills. But now, he only needed a day to use this Soul Nourishing Pill!
This was an absolutely shocking situation. It was equivalent to increasing an arcane master's efficiency by three times! Furthermore, the effect of training soul power was also increased by three times! If news of this were to spread, not to mention the surrounding rank five arcane master guilds, even the rank four arcane master guilds of the Fire Crow Empire would send people to demand it. If they weren't careful, they might even get themselves killed.
Furthermore, the Thousand Bird Pill wasn't simple either. According to what Li Yunxiao said, ordinary martial artists who used pills to increase their strength would taste good and feel extremely comfortable after eating them. However, there would always be hidden dangers when relying on pills to increase their strength. And this Thousand Bird Pill wasn't an ordinary pill to increase one's strength. It was a pill that contained poison that stimulated the body.
It wasn't absorbed by the martial artist through the energy contained in the pill itself. Instead, it continuously stimulated the body's potential through gentle stimulation, achieving the miraculous effect of training the body and meridians at the same time. The disadvantage was that it tasted terrible. After consuming it, one's entire body would sting as if thousands of birds were pecking at one's body.
However, which one of those who pursued martial arts wasn't incomparably tenacious? This bit of pain was nothing to them.
After consuming the last Thousand Bird Pill, Li Yunxiao continued to sit cross-legged in the array to cultivate. The entire process of refining pills was basically handled by Jia Rong. Although it was exhausting, Jia Rong was happier than anything else in his heart. He hated that he couldn't continue refining like this for the rest of his life.
After consuming the Soul Nourishing Pill, he also sat opposite of Li Yunxiao and began to nourish his soul. He could only feel waves of coolness flowing into his mind. It was indescribably comfortable. Furthermore, the recovery speed this time was much faster than before. His soul fire seemed to be a little restless.
"This is!"
Jia Rong was pleasantly surprised. It was actually a sign of breaking through to Tier 2!
The previous attempt to break through to Tier 2 was interrupted, which made him exceptionally disappointed. However, that was also because he had inexplicably comprehended the bottleneck of Tier 2 when he was comprehending the path of refinement. He also knew that it was just a coincidence. It was impossible for him to break through with his soul power at that time. However, the longer he immersed himself in that state, the more experience and comprehension he would gain. It would be greatly beneficial for his future breakthrough.
But how long had it been? Why was there another breakthrough?!
Jia Rong was a little confused, but he didn't dare to be careless. He began to carefully circulate the Soul Refinement Art that Li Yunxiao taught him. He slowly gathered his soul power in his mind and felt the slight trembling of his soul fire.
The trembling rhythm became stronger and stronger, driving the steps of his life. The soul fire was about to break through its shackles and enter a whole new world.
Jia Rong suppressed the intense excitement in his heart. This kind of breaking rhythm was exactly what he felt when he was breaking through to Tier 1. It was the sign of success!
Suddenly, an anxious voice exploded in the refinement room. "Young Master Yun, something happened to your family. Grandmaster Liang Wenyu asked me to call you out! "
It was Lu Yao's anxious voice transmission.
"Pfff! ~"
Jia Rong was at a critical juncture. The voice shook him, and he immediately lost control of his mind. He spat out a mouthful of blood. The light in his eyes gradually dimmed. The rhythm of the soul fire in his mind was completely disrupted, and it began to wreak havoc in his mind.
"Young Master Yun, I …"
Jia Rong's heart was filled with fear. He had never experienced such a situation. However, it was described in the notes of many refinement masters. It was an extremely powerful soul storm. If it was light, the soul would be injured. If it was heavy, the sea of consciousness would be scattered, and the person would lose consciousness and become a vegetable.
"Pa!"
He didn't know when, but Li Yunxiao was already standing in front of him. He lightly placed an arm on Jia Rong's shoulder and said softly, "Open your eyes and look at me."
His words seemed to have some kind of magical power. Jia Rong subconsciously raised his head and opened his eyes in fear. He met Li Yunxiao's gaze.
Li Yunxiao's eyes began to turn into a demonic red crescent moon. Behind him was a boundless black. Jia Rong felt as if he was being sucked into the world in those eyes. All of a sudden, the entire red moon and black moon collapsed with a loud bang. The clouds parted to reveal the blue sky, and a clear sky appeared. In the vast sky, there were faint specks of golden light. Those specks of golden light suddenly condensed, and a row of large words appeared. The golden light was dazzling.
