"Will this really work?"
"Don't forget to share it with me when it's done. I'll listen to you."
When the Dragon Emperor came back, Du Feng talked to him about it. He was so excited that he almost jumped up.
Du Feng had observed the Dragon Emperor during the Dragon and Phoenix War last time. At that time, not only had living people turned into Dragon Gold and Phoenix Diamond, a bird that happened to fly by had also turned into Dragon Gold. That bird wasn't an ordinary bird, but a Dragon Sparrow.
If ordinary demon beasts didn't cultivate to human form, they wouldn't turn into Dragon Gold at all when they were illuminated by the golden light. Instead, they would be turned into ashes. But once they cultivated to human form, they would be intelligent demon cultivators, not much different from ordinary humans. Using them to make Dragon Gold was equivalent to harming human lives. Du Feng couldn't do such an inhumane thing.
Humans were the leaders of all living creatures. It wasn't strange at all that they could turn into Dragon Gold and Phoenix Diamond. One couldn't catch people alive and throw them under the bridge just to get rich. Even Wong Song Lord had watched the martial artists fall by themselves. Whether they could get rich or not depended on their own strength. If they caught people alive and threw them down, they would be utterly heartless. They would definitely be punished. Therefore, after some consideration, he decided to try using demon beasts with the blood of Dragons in them. Since that Dragon Sparrow could turn into Dragon Gold, so could other Dragon Sparrows.
Not only Dragon Sparrows, but Flood Dragons, Tortoise Dragons, Bull Dragons, Horned Dragons, and other creatures with the blood of Dragons in them could do it. At that time, the Dragon Emperor couldn't move because his Dragons' blood was too thick. Because now, Du Feng found the trick.
He just needed the Dragon Emperor to go down to the Mortal World and bring back some living mixed-blood descendants of Dragons from the sea. When the golden light appeared, he could throw them down and they would all turn into Dragon Gold.
"Okay, okay, okay. Wait for my good news. You must wait for me."
After hearing this, the Dragon Emperor's eyes lit up. He felt countless Immortal Stones calling to him. It was too easy for him to catch the mixed-blood descendants of Dragons from the sea. As long as an order was given, those bastards would obediently come over on their own.
The production of the Dragon Gold was settled, but the Phoenix Diamond was still out of the question. They couldn't just throw a living person into it, right? Du Feng had also considered this problem, but he had never observed it on the spot. He felt that since the mixed-blood descendants of Dragons could become Dragon Gold, then according to this logic, the mixed-blood descendants of Phoenixes should also be able to become Phoenix Diamonds. Of course, he didn't know how mixed this mixed-blood was and what proportion the Divine Beast bloodline would take up. He would only know after trying it out next time.
"Brother Du, will this really work?"
After listening to Du Feng's plan, the Demon Emperor felt that it was too far-fetched. One had to know that Wong Song Lord and the rest had ruled over Eight Immortals City for so many years, and they had always been waiting for blind martial artists to fall into the trap and turn into Dragon Gold or Phoenix Diamond. If he could really take the initiative to throw all sorts of mixed-blood Demon Beasts into it, then wouldn't he be able to create an unlimited amount of Dragon Gold and Phoenix Diamonds?
"Don't get too excited. I'm afraid things aren't that simple."
The people of Eight Immortals City had probably accidentally discovered that human martial artists could turn into Dragon Gold and Phoenix Diamonds when they fell into the trap. Therefore, they had always used this method, and it had never changed. If Du Feng suddenly changed the rules, it would definitely lead to a huge production of Dragon Gold and Phoenix Diamonds. Once there were more of them, they wouldn't be that precious anymore, and the price would naturally fall.
In the past, human lives were at stake, so the residents of Eight Immortals City didn't dare to fight with the guards for Dragon Gold and Phoenix Diamonds. If mixed-blood Demon Beasts were thrown into the trap and a huge amount of Dragon Gold and Phoenix Diamonds were produced, the residents of Eight Immortals City would probably go crazy when they saw it. At that time, there would definitely be a frenzy over it, and it might even lead to a riot.
"No problem, just leave this to me."
Although the Demon Emperor didn't know how to manage an Immortal City, he was still quite good at intimidating the people. If a war between dragons and phoenixes occurred, it would probably take a long time. He could use the City Lord Manor's military force to make preparations in advance.
This time, the Dragon Emperor was especially efficient. He quickly returned from the Lower Realm and brought back a large number of mixed-blood descendants of the Dragons. After all, he was the leader of the Dragons. He couldn't bear to capture real members of the Dragons to make Dragon Gold. As for those Dragon Sparrows, Bull Dragons, Turtle Dragons, and so on, he didn't feel the pinch at all.
"What do you think? We're going to be rich this time, aren't we?"
The Dragon Emperor specially used the Beast Bracelet to carry back a large number of live Demon Beasts. The Dragon Palace had a pretty solid foundation. Ordinary martial artists only had Beast Bags and Storage Bracelets. The Beast Bags could only capture one live Demon Beast at a time, and the Storage Bracelet could only store non-living things.
However, the Beast Bracelet of the Dragon Palace was different. It was very spacious inside, and it even had a seawater environment, which could ensure the survival of the Demon Beasts.
"Calm down and listen to me carefully."
Du Feng could understand the Dragon Emperor's desire to get rich, but it wasn't that simple. As long as they tried this method once and others saw it, they would quickly learn it. Especially Mr. Li from the Heaven Realm. He must have planted spies in Eight Immortals City.
As long as Mr. Li mastered this method, Du Feng and the others would lose their value. When the Dragon Gold and Phoenix Diamonds were mass-produced, the market would definitely be affected. Therefore, Du Feng decided to separate the residents of the city on the day of the actual implementation, so they couldn't see it.
Currently, Du Feng and the others only had three people. Including the Skeleton Warriors and the Ghost Servants, they only had five combat power. It would be a little difficult to achieve this goal. They had to find a reason to separate all the residents a few days before the start of the project. They had to block the Golden Bridge, and no one was allowed to get close.
The three of them pondered for a while, but couldn't come up with a good idea for the time being. Even if they used the city guards to separate the people, the guards would still discover the secret, and it would inevitably be leaked to Mr. Li. The soldiers of Eight Immortals City would rather offend Du Feng than Mr. Li.
"Forget it, let's not think about it for now. You two, come with me."
Since they couldn't think of a solution, they put it aside for the time being. Du Feng could take his time to test it out, and he would eventually come up with a solution. He stopped the Dragon Emperor and told him not to go to places like the Heavenly Fragrance Pavilion anymore. Now that there were a lot of Spirit Cultivating Pills, the three of them had to take this opportunity to cultivate well.
If a fight broke out, only those with high Cultivation Skills and strength would have a higher chance of survival. In the face of wealth, not to mention Mr. Li from the Heaven Realm. Even Uncle Lion Man and Bewitching Man couldn't guarantee that they wouldn't turn against them.
"Okay, I'll listen to you."
