Zhen Ling sat on the praying mat while Huang Daoran sat across from her. The two were currently at the Flying Phoenix Mountain. This mountain was originally called the Colorful Cloud Ridge. It was the ancestral property of the Zhen Family. This mountain used to produce black iron ores, but now, all of the black iron ores have been mined, making this mountain the headquarters of the Zhen Family.
Besides the black iron ore, there was another secret on the mountain. There was a spirit vein on the mountain. It wasn't a very high-grade spirit vein, it could only be considered a medium-grade spirit vein. Moreover, the spirit vein was very remote. And with the Zhen Family's magic formation, it was impossible for outsiders to know that there was a spirit vein here.
After dozens of generations of the Zhen family's management, the Flying Phoenix Mountain could be said to be densely packed with formations. In addition, there were countless mines dug out in the past. The mines were equipped with mechanisms and formations. The entire Flying Phoenix Mountain could be said to be impregnable. It was not inferior to some mid-grade sects at all.
Because of Huang Daoran's relationship with the Zhen Family, he generally cultivated in the Zhen Family's spirit vein. Besides Huang Daoran, there were also more than a dozen Nascent Soul Experts that the Zhen Family cultivated. This was the Zhen Family's Elder Hall. All of the Zhen Family's Elders cultivated here.
Among these people, Huang Daoran was naturally the leader. First, Huang Daoran was strong. Second, it was because of his relationship with the Zhen Family. Originally, Huang Daoran was a guest elder of the Rosy Clouds Pavilion because of the Zhen Family. But now that he was no longer a guest elder, he naturally became the Zhen Family's Supreme Elder. His status in the Zhen Family was extraordinary.
Zhen Ling looked at Huang Daoran and said, "Uncle Huang, I've prepared Zhao Hai's gift. But I can't contact him right now. What do you think?"
Huang Daoran gently shook his head and said, "Recently, Zhao Hai has been cultivating. Although he appeared in the Six Realms Battlefield a while ago, that was only to intimidate people. It seems like he's in seclusion again. This time, Zhao Hai's seclusion was very long. It's possible that he's cultivating. We shouldn't disturb him."
Zhen Ling looked at Huang Daoran and said, "Uncle Huang, Zhao Hai is getting stronger and stronger. If he really becomes a Transcending Tribulation Expert, do you think he'll deal with us?"
Huang Daoran looked at Zhen Ling and smiled faintly as he said, "Little Ling, you can rest assured. Zhao Hai isn't that kind of person. I know that you've been in the business world for many years and have seen the faces of many people. Therefore, you wouldn't easily trust him. Zhao Hai has only met you twice, so you don't understand him. But don't worry, Zhao Hai isn't the kind of person you think he is."
Zhen Ling looked at Huang Daoran with a puzzled expression. She didn't understand why Huang Daoran was so confident in Zhao Hai. Huang Daoran looked at Zhen Ling and smiled faintly, "Little Ling, the Cultivation Realm is a place where the strong preys on the weak. But in this place, it's easy for people who value relationships to appear. Zhao Hai went against me for the sake of the Lock Mountain Range. This shows that he's a very sentimental person. Moreover, his interests are aligned with ours. He's my disciple in name. Although I didn't teach him anything, this identity allows him to move freely in the Cultivation Realm and do business with you. If he turns against us, then he wouldn't have a foothold in the Machine Field. Most importantly, he has a cooperative relationship with the Profound Clear Sect. Don't think that cooperating with the Profound Clear Sect is a good thing. The Profound Clear Sect can provide us protection, but if they turn against us, then they would be faster than anyone else. If Zhao Hai turns against us, then the Profound Clear Sect wouldn't let him go. When the time comes, it would be difficult for him to have a foothold in the Machine Field." Huang Daoran smiled faintly and said, "Little Ling, the Cultivation Realm is a place where the strong preys on the weak.
Zhen Ling couldn't help but nod. What Huang Daoran said was reasonable. She agreed with Huang Daoran's opinion. After doing business for so many years, she didn't believe in anything other than benefits. When she became the Pavilion Master of the Pink Clouds Pavilion, there were a lot of people who opposed her. But ever since she became the Pavilion Master, she was able to give them huge dividends every year. It was because of these dividends that those people didn't rush into action despite their opposition. This was because she used benefits to tie those people to her chariot.
And now, she was cooperating with Zhao Hai for benefits. She didn't believe that Zhao Hai would really treat Zhao Hai as his Master. Before, the two were fighting to the death. Now that Huang Daoran said that he wanted Zhao Hai to worship him as his Master, then Zhao Hai really did it. How much of a Master and disciple relationship could there be? It was very doubtful.
Huang Daoran looked at Zhen Ling and couldn't help but sigh inwardly. He really didn't want to see Zhen Ling like this. Zhen Ling didn't believe in people anymore. In her eyes, there were only benefits. This wasn't good.
Huang Daoran also knew why Zhen Ling was like this. It was because Zhen Ling had been doing business for a long time. Merchants in the Cultivation Realm would use all kinds of methods. Betrayal was a common occurrence. It can be said that Zhen Ling had seen the ugliest side of human nature in recent years. Because of this, she no longer believed in human nature. She only believed in benefits.
Huang Daoran replied, "Little Ling, I hope that you can get along well with Little Hai. Little Hai has a lot of things that people in the Cultivation Realm don't have. It's only been two years since he ascended, but he's already done a lot of things. His reputation is huge. Moreover, he has a lot of friends in the Machine Field. Back in the Lock Mountain Range, the people in the Lock Mountain Range were willing to go all out against him and me. From this point, you can see what kind of person Little Hai is. The people you've been in contact with over the years are all people who are blinded by greed. You should get in touch with Little Hai."
Zhen Ling didn't oppose Huang Daoran's words. Instead, she nodded and said, "Yes, Uncle Huang can rest assured. I will. What about Zhao Hai's share?"
Huang Daoran smiled faintly and said, "You can use it first. You don't need to be polite with him. He won't say anything."
Zhen Ling nodded, then she turned to Huang Daoran and said, "Uncle Huang, how strong is Zhao Hai right now? Did he really not reach Transcending Tribulation? "
Huang Daoran nodded and said, "It seems like Zhao Hai wouldn't lie about this. He shouldn't have reached Transcending Tribulation yet. However, his cultivation method is very special. Even now, I can't tell what attribute his cultivation method is. However, it seems like he hasn't systematically studied the Cultivation Realm's attack methods. Although his flying sword attacks have a myriad of variations, they are still somewhat messy."
Zhen Ling nodded and said, "It seems like Zhao Hai's cultivation method must be related to his cultivation method. It's just that I don't know where he got his cultivation method."
Huang Daoran nodded and said, "The origin of his cultivation method is indeed strange. Saying that he brought it from the lower realms doesn't make sense. It's impossible for there to be such a powerful cultivation method in the lower realms. However, from the time he ascended to the Cultivation Realm until now, everything he did can be traced. It's impossible for him to find such a powerful cultivation method in just a short time. This matter is really strange."
Zhen Ling knit her brows, then she said, "This is indeed strange. But Uncle Huang, do you think those people would look for Zhao Hai?"
Upon hearing Zhen Ling, Huang Daoran's expression couldn't help but change. He knit his brows and said, "Those people? It shouldn't be, right? In the Cultivation Realm, even in the Profound Clear Sect, there aren't many people who would be fancied by those people. Is Zhao Hai qualified? "
Zhen Ling looked at Huang Daoran's expression, then she smiled faintly and said, "Uncle Huang, how many people in the World of Cultivation can be like Zhao Hai? He's only been in the Immortal Realm for two years. If he's not qualified, then who is? "
Huang Daoran frowned and said, "But Zhao Hai hasn't transcended his tribulation yet. Right, Little Hai's strength is there. Although he hasn't transcended tribulation, it's still possible for him to be targeted. In the past, no one from the Machine Field was chosen. Little Hai might be the first to be chosen. "Zhao Hai nodded and said," That's right.
Zhen Ling nodded and said, "I heard that those who are chosen are very dangerous. Uncle Huang, weren't you also chosen in the past?"
Huang Daoran nodded, then he sighed and said, "Being chosen isn't just dangerous. I was chosen when I just transcended my tribulation. Although I only went for two months, I was injured twice. The third time was even worse. I almost couldn't recover."
Zhen Ling knit her brows and said, "Is it really that dangerous?"
Huang Daoran forced a smile and said, "It's more dangerous than you think. Those who can go there are at least Nascent Soul Experts. Moreover, they have their own unique skills. Even if they encounter a Transcending Tribulation Expert, they wouldn't be at a disadvantage. If it weren't for the Monks in the World of Cultivation, I'm afraid we would be in a worse situation."
Zhen Ling frowned and said, "What if Zhao Hai is really found by those people? If something happens to him, then our business would be greatly affected. "
Huang Daoran sighed and said, "I can only hope that Little Hai's strength can increase. At the very least, he should be able to protect himself. If those people want to summon people, nobody would dare to refuse. Nobody would dare to refuse."
Zhen Ling knit her brows and said, "Uncle Huang, shouldn't we think of something? If something happens to Zhao Hai, then the impact on our business would be too great."
Huang Daoran smiled bitterly and said, "What can we do? Little Hai is currently providing us with spirit wine. Spirit wine isn't something that just anyone can take out. Little Hai said that the spirit wine was produced on the planet he obtained. I've already asked people a few days ago, and it turns out that the planet he obtained isn't his own, it's shared between him and his friends. Moreover, there aren't many people on the planet right now. Most importantly, the planet isn't suitable for humans to live on. I think Little Hai isn't telling the truth. It's impossible for the spirit wine to be produced on his planet. He wouldn't easily reveal the origin of the spirit wine. After all, the profits from spirit wine are too great."
Zhen Ling nodded. She could understand this point. The profits of spirit wine were too great. If she was in Zhao Hai's shoes, she wouldn't tell anyone about it either. Even if that person was her partner.
Huang Daoran smiled bitterly and said, "This time, even if those people want to summon Little Hai, they would have to wait for him to come out of seclusion. When Little Hai comes out, he'll certainly inform me. At that time, we'll have him leave some wine behind. You can control the sales. I believe that Little Hai's strength will increase once he comes out of seclusion. Even if he goes there, there shouldn't be any problems. I'm very confident in him."
Zhen Ling nodded, then she said, "Alright, that's the only thing we can do now. Uncle Huang, I'll be leaving first. If Zhao Hai comes, you must let me meet him." Zhen Ling nodded, then she nodded.
Huang Daoran nodded. Zhen Ling stood up and gave Huang Daoran a salute before she turned around and left. Huang Daoran looked at Zhen Ling's departing back and sighed, "I hope that Zhao Hai's strength would improve this time. Otherwise …" After saying this, Huang Daoran couldn't help but sigh again.
The conversation between Huang Daoran and Zhen Ling was recorded by Cai 'er. Cai' er paid attention to Huang Daoran and the others. After all, there weren't many people in the Machine Field who could threaten Zhao Hai. However, Huang Daoran was different. Huang Daoran was a Cultivator. Moreover, he was friends with Feng Baiming. Feng Baiming was an Elder of the Profound Clear Sect. Although Huang Daoran was no longer a threat to Zhao Hai, the Profound Clear Sect was still a threat. Because of this, Cai 'er paid attention to Huang Daoran's information.
Today, Huang Daoran and Zhen Ling mentioned a place several times. And this place was very dangerous. Even Huang Daoran, who was a Transcending Stage Enlightened Master, was injured several times in the past two months. Such a place was too dangerous. And it was very likely that Zhao Hai would be summoned there. This wasn't good news for Zhao Hai.
Most importantly, Huang Daoran also mentioned that there was a force in the World of Cultivation that Zhao Hai didn't know about. This force was very powerful. If they wanted to summon people, nobody would dare to stop them. This wasn't something that an ordinary force could do.
Besides this, Huang Daoran also mentioned the Buddhist Sects. And from what he said, it seems like the World of Cultivation wasn't the only force in the World of Cultivation. What kind of place was it? This made Cai 'er and the others worried.
Zhao Hai didn't know about this matter. This was because he was in seclusion. This time, he was practicing the Imperial Water Technique. The Imperial Water Technique was a type of magical technique.
This so-called magical technique was a technique used by the Cultivation Realm. Just like the Formation Demon Technique, it was a technique that didn't require weapons. It was a technique that could be used by one's spiritual force. In the Cultivation Realm, magical techniques were very important. This was especially true for Rogue Cultivators. This was because they didn't have the money to buy good artifacts. Therefore, they could only use magical techniques. Magical techniques could be used as long as one had spiritual qi. Moreover, if a magical technique was used well, then its attack power would be extraordinary.
The Imperial Water Technique was one of the 18 Techniques. Besides the Imperial Water Technique, there were also the Beast Controlling Technique, the Joyful and Fearful Technique, the Breathing Sword Technique, the Clone Technique, and several other techniques.
