It was a two-meter-tall, dark-skinned, middle-aged man with a square face. Divine light overflowed from his eyes, giving him an imposing aura.
He walked to Shi Yan, coldly raking his eyes through Shi Yan. "You're Shi Yan, right?"
"Yes."
"Not bad." Nu Lang nodded and snorted. "With only the Sky Realm cultivation base, you could make the two brothers Bao Wen and Bao Ke yield. Seems like the Yang Family has another fierce warrior. Yang Tian Emperor's fortune isn't bad. After he fell into the Demon Area, he still has a kid like you to help him fill the gap. "
Shi Yan smiled, but didn't say anything.
"You came here to help me refine treasures. Do you want me to recognize the overlord position of the Yang Family in Barren City?"
"Yes."
"It's a small matter. As long as you satisfy me, I can agree with you."
"Thank you."
"I don't like people watching me refine treasures. You talk to the heaven flame, and I will confine you."
Shi Yan's face slightly changed. He contemplated for a while and then agreed. "Alright."
Then, he contacted the Earth Flame, asking it to pay attention to Nu Lang and cooperate with him to help him refine treasures.
The Earth Flame replied that it understood.
Nu Lang saw the heaven flame floating above the scarlet flame crystal, releasing the scorching flame. Then, he raised his hand to cover it.
Circles of gloomy black light fell from above, covering ShiYan in just a blink of an eye. Inside that gloomy black light, ShiYan couldn't see anything outside, and his soul consciousness couldn't penetrate it either. It was like he was trapped in a dark cage, covering everything.
His sight, hearing, and the touch of his Soul Consciousness were all blocked.
Nu Lang was at the Third Sky of Spirit Realm. As soon as he took action, he had frightened Shi Yan. He knew that this kind of character wasn't something he could deal with temporarily.
Before he came here, he had thought that Nu Lang would do that, so he wasn't surprised.
Inside this black halo, he sat down cross-legged, gathering his mind and soul. Then, he started to send his Soul Consciousness into the light cluster of memories in his head.
It was the lifetime experience of a Sacred level blacksmith.
During this period of time, as long as he had free time, he would immerse himself in comprehending those refining methods with all his might.
Wisps of memories and thoughts were active in it. Looking at those precious refining pictures, he was quietly making progress and comprehending a deeper level of refining techniques …
Time flew by.
After an unknown period of time, he suddenly sensed that the light shrouding his body had suddenly disappeared.
Light reappeared.
Opening his eyes, he looked ahead and saw that the Scarlet Flame Crystals in the magma pool had been burned to ashes.
Above the magma pool, the Heaven Flame quietly floated and immediately sent a thought to him. "He has forged a trident, which is made from all kinds of rare metal ores. Although there is no refining formation, it is extremely heavy. This kind of weapon is very extraordinary."
Shi Yan nodded slightly.
The Earth Flame turned into a bunch of flames, disappearing into the Blood Vein Ring. Shi Yan sensed for a while, then looked at Nu Lang sitting around the magma pool. He smiled and said, "Congratulations."
Nu Lang pouted his lips, snorted, and then waved his hand. "You go. Our Black Flood Dragon Clan won't care about Barren City anymore. Everything will be the same as before. "
"Precursor Nu Lang." Shi Yan took a deep breath. He didn't leave immediately, but smiled and asked, "Currently, the Endless Sea is in chaos. The Dark Dwellers and the Demon Dwellers are operating in the Hengluo Sea and the Kyara Sea. They are fighting with the human warriors in the Endless Sea. The situation is in a stalemate. What do you think?"
"What does it have to do with me?" Nu Lang rolled his eyes and said impatiently.
"Who do you think will win in the end, the Demon Dwellers, the Dark Dwellers, or the warriors of the Endless Sea?" Shi Yan was patient. "Precursor, your cultivation base is profound, and your vision is unique. You should have a good opinion. I wonder if you can tell me."
"I don't care who wins. As long as they don't come to my seabed to stir up trouble, I don't care."
Nu Lang snorted as if he wasn't interested in the commotion on the sea surface. He coldly looked at Shi Yan and said, "Kid, you've been testing me. What do you want to say after all?"
"I don't know if precursor has any intention to go to the sea surface?" Shi Yan's face darkened as he asked coldly.
A strange light flashed in Nu Lang's eyes. He sneered, shook his head, and didn't say anything.
"If I were you, when the Endless Sea is in chaos, I wouldn't stay quietly on the seabed." Shi Yan curled his lips and said, "I'll always pay attention to the situation up there, waiting for the best chance to get in. I can wait until both sides are wounded, or I can unite with one side to destroy the other to gain enough benefits."
Nu Lang's eyes sparkled with ferocious light. "Kid, what do you think I'll do?"
Shaking his head, Shi Yan said, "I don't know. But if I were you, I wouldn't be content with the current situation. Haha, the Endless Sea is in a mess, but the seabed is peaceful and steady. This is a once in a blue moon opportunity. If I were you, I wouldn't let it go. "
Nu Lang's face darkened, but he didn't say anything.
"I'm leaving." Shi Yan clasped his hands, bent his waist to greet him, and then smiled. "If you want to join hands, if possible, I hope you can consider our Yang Family. Although our Yang Family hasn't shown our competence yet, I think you will see our Yang Family's real power sooner or later. "
After saying that, he didn't wait for Nu Lang's response and went back the way he came.
Nu Lang's eyes overflowed with ferocious light, coldly looking at Shi Yan's silhouette fading away. He suddenly grinned, "Kid, your guts aren't small, and your ambition is big enough. Unfortunately, your competence is still far from enough. If Yang Tian Emperor came, I could consider it. But you're not qualified. "
Of course, Shi Yan couldn't hear what he had said.
Three Spirit Realm warriors of the Black Flood Dragon Clan emerged from the dark, looking at the direction where Shi Yan had disappeared.
"Patriarch, this kid's guts are big enough. Not only did he dare to come here alone, but he also tried to probe us. Moreover, he wants to join hands with our Sea Tribes. Given time, this kid will be a prominent character in the Endless Sea. Perhaps he can be like Cao Qiu Dao and Yang Tian Emperor, dominating an area."
A chubby member of the Black Flood Dragon Clan mused for a while and then said.
Nu Lang nodded. "Not only does he have the ambition, but he doesn't seem to be afraid of gossip. He doesn't care about rules, and he doesn't have the old ideas of the tribes. Joining hands with our Sea Tribes, this kid isn't afraid of being criticized by thousands of people. In the eyes of humans, those who join hands with the other tribes are all wicked villains. I'm surprised that he dares to have such an idea. "
"That year, when Yang Tian Emperor came to see our patriarch, he wanted to join hands with the Yang Family to plot the Endless Sea. However, Yang Tian Emperor refused. He said that the two tribes couldn't live under the same sky, and that they couldn't coexist in the same sea area. Yang Tian Emperor attached great importance to races. He thought that besides the Human Clan, the other races were all barbarians. They weren't qualified to live together with the Human Clan. "
The chubby member of the Black Flood Dragon Clan frowned, snorted, and then said, "Yang Tian Emperor was stubborn. He said that as long as he was in the Endless Sea, we shouldn't think about leaving the seabed and living on the surface. Today, he's confined in the Demon Area, and he can't even protect himself. The Yang Family suddenly has a junior who doesn't care about worldly ideas. It's strange indeed. Unfortunately, he's not the master of the Yang Family, and his cultivation base is a little weak. Otherwise, our patriarch could consider him. "
"Yeah." Another Spirit Realm warrior of the Black Flood Dragon Clan nodded. "All of the Human Tribes reject our Sea Tribes. They think that we should live on the seabed. However, they don't know that many tribes of the Sea Tribes also yearn for the fertile land on the sea surface. We want to live there for a long time. Whether it's Cao Qiu Dao, Yang Yi Tian, or the leaders of the other forces, they're all affected by those ideas. They think that the Sea Tribes are the alien tribes. It's hard to get along with us. "
"This kid's special, indeed." Nu Lang mused for a while, then shook his head. "Too bad that his realm isn't high enough, and the Yang Family isn't as strong as before. We shouldn't care about him."
"Patriarch, he said that the Yang Family would reappear in the Endless Sea. I think there's something we haven't grasped yet."
"Yeah, this kid is so arrogant. He must have something to back him up. Does it mean that Yang Tian Emperor has escaped from the Demon Area? "
Nu Lang's pupils shrank as he frowned. "No matter what, we should just wait and see. For the time being, we shouldn't get involved. Wait until the Dark Dwellers, the Demon Dwellers, and the Endless Sea are all hurt. Then, we'll see the situation. It's a good chance that comes once in a blue moon. Perhaps we can achieve the great undertaking that our ancestors couldn't. "
The other three hotshots of the Sea Tribes were stirred up, their eyes dazzling.
…
"The Sea Tribes won't be content with the current situation. Seems like we have to plan ahead."
After they got out of the Black Flood Dragon Clan, Shi Yan threw a glance at Li Feng and then said with a serious face. "Nu Lang's ambitious. He won't stay on the seabed and watch the show. I think he's waiting for the right time. When the time comes, he will lead the hotshots of the Sea Tribes to attack the Endless Sea directly."
"Perhaps he's waiting for both sides to be hurt." Li Feng's face changed.
"Eighty to ninety percent likely." Shi Yan darkened his face, looking at the Black Flood Dragon Clan's territory and sighed. "The Black Flood Dragon Clan's really dangerous. If we add the Water Scorpion Clan, the Silver Shark Clan, and the Naga Tribe, this force isn't weaker than the Dark Dwellers and the Demon Dwellers. They have more advantages than the Dark Dwellers and the Demon Dwellers. They can attack or retreat. If they find something wrong, they can hide in the seabed. It's hard to deal with them on the seabed. "
"Seems like the situation in the Endless Sea is getting more complicated," Li Feng beamed a forced smile.
"We can't stay on the seabed forever. In Barren City, the information travels very slowly. We're almost in a closed state, so we can't know the situation in the Endless Sea immediately." Musing for a while, Shi Yan said with a solemn face, "We must return to the Endless Sea soon. Just leave some people here in Barren City. Only when we get to the Endless Sea can we have a chance to contact our fellows in the Demon Area."
"I can't make the decision on this matter." Li Fenger shook her head.
"I'm going to talk to my Big Uncle."
…
Three days later, Shi Yan returned to Barren City. After meeting Yang Zhuo, he said, "We can't stay in Barren City forever. We must get out."
"Why?"
"Nu Lang has the intention to invade the Endless Sea. He's just waiting for a good chance. If we can't join hands with Nu Lang, we can only release the news earlier to let the others pay attention to him."
