"Eunuch Mei is also here. Is the Great Zhou Empire going to start an all-out war with Xuanmen Tianzong?"
The spectators discussed amongst themselves.
Lin Feng's expression was calm as he calmly looked at Mei Wulang.
Mei Wulang stopped not far from Lin Feng. He suddenly bowed respectfully towards Lin Feng. "Old servant Mei Wulang is here on His Majesty's orders to deliver a congratulatory gift to the Master of the Xuan Gate. This is just a small gift. I hope the Master of the Xuan Gate will kindly accept it."
Everyone was in an uproar when they heard this. They stared closely at Mei Wulang, wanting to see if he was being sarcastic.
But the more they looked, the more they felt something was wrong.
Mei Wulang's expression was humble and his smile was warm. In the present world, perhaps only a Primordial Spirit cultivator could make him so respectful.
More importantly, Mei Wulang was alone. Even though he was a late stage Yuanying cultivator, Pang Jie's misfortune had already proved that late stage Yuanying cultivators were not a match for Lin Feng.
If he wanted to make things difficult for Lin Feng, he definitely wouldn't be like this.
Some people subconsciously looked around. The famous Shenwu Army of the Great Zhou Empire was nowhere to be seen.
Mei Wulang completely ignored everyone's shocked gazes. He smiled and said, "Mister Zhang's matter is purely a misunderstanding. He misunderstood Marquis Xuanji's intentions and disturbed your sect's opening ceremony. His Majesty specially ordered me to come here to apologise to the Master of the Xuan Gate."
He clapped his hands lightly and the space behind him split open. A group of people holding gift boxes slowly walked out on bright yellow clouds.
The highest cultivation level of these people was only at the Foundation Establishment stage. Using them to deliver gifts clearly meant that they didn't have any enmity.
One gift box after another was opened. One could see that even the boxes containing the gifts were high quality magic items. Although each box was only half a meter long, they actually had a built-in space that could hold many things.
The Great Zhou Empire's palace manager, Mei Wulang, personally announced the names.
"... A thousand kilograms of Converged Flint, a thousand kilograms of Purple Swallow Stone, a thousand kilograms of Turquoise Stone, a thousand kilograms of Stalactite Crystal!"
The others were truly shocked. The congratulatory gift sent by the Great Zhou Dynasty was not fooling around at all. It was a serious and precious cultivation mineral.
Convergent Flint, Purple Brilliant Stone, Turquoise Marrow, Condensed Stalactite Crystals, and other things were all extremely precious cultivation materials. Moreover, each of them weighed over a thousand kilograms.
With the status and wealth of the Great Zhou Dynasty, these thousand pounds of materials were definitely not raw ores, but refined essence materials.
The Scorching Flint was one of the best fire-elemental materials for refining magic tools. One had to find volcanic lava that had erupted, cool it down, and then refine it from it. Even thousands of kilograms of volcanic ash might not be able to refine half a kilogram of Scorching Flint.
The Purple Scarlet Brilliance Stone had to be specially selected from rocks that had been struck by the heavenly lightning of nature, and then refined from them. It was impossible to reach the standard by artificially casting lightning spells, so its preciousness could be imagined.
The Turquoise Marrow had to be a ten-thousand-year-old tree that had been buried deep in the ground and turned into a fossil. However, it had to be excavated before it turned into coal, and the marrow-shaped liquid contained within could be extracted.
There was no need to say much about the Condensed Stalactite Crystal. After thousands of years in a cave, the stalactite would drip water rich with spirit qi. After collecting large amounts of spirit qi, a thousand kilograms of spirit water would condense into a crystal the size of a human finger.
Any one of these materials weighed half a kilogram, and the market price would be around ten vermillion talismans.
But now, the Great Zhou Dynasty was offering a thousand kilograms.
And Mei Wulang's announcement had only just begun.
"... A hundred Ice Illusion Divine Stones, ten Primordial Essence Crystals, five buckets of Emerald Sand, five kilograms of Darklight Enigmatic Iron."
Everyone was speechless. Quite a few of them stared at the attendant holding the gift box behind Mei Wulang. Their eyes were bloodshot.
If it wasn't for the fact that this item was a transaction between the Great Zhou Dynasty and Xuanmen Tianzong, they would definitely take the risk and rush up to snatch it.
In fact, if it wasn't for the overwhelming strength that Lin Feng had displayed earlier, they would definitely have tried to snatch it as well.
These items were just too precious.
A hundred, ten, five buckets, five kilograms. It didn't sound like it could compare to the thousand kilograms of gifts from before. The number was so small that it was almost negligible.
But those who truly understood the value of these treasures knew that any one of the last four items would be worth more than all of the previous ones!
Ice Illusion Divine Stone was a peak ice-attribute refining material. It was condensed from ten thousand year profound ice and had the Concept of Space fused into it. Just a single one was enough to cause others to fight over it, let alone a hundred of them.
Primordial Essence Crystal was one of the miraculous items formed when the heavens and the earth were created. It contained the purest spirit qi of the world and the true meaning of creation.
Emerald Sand and Darklight Enigmatic Iron were the six great miraculous metals of the world. They were both the best materials for refining flying swords. If one or even a few grams of it were added to a flying sword, the sword's strength would increase by a level, and it would have special uses that were different from ordinary swords.
Seeing these items, not to mention the cultivators of the small sects, even Yang Tonghui, Ancestor Flying Fire, and Ancestor Qing Wei were slightly envious.
The three of them looked at each other and were speechless. They thought at the same time, "The Great Zhou Dynasty is going to put in a lot of money this time."
The Great Zhou Dynasty was indeed putting in a lot of money. After a large number of precious cultivation materials, there were twenty sets of Purple Micro Fairy Robes. They were magic tools of the Golden Elixir Period. They were refined with precious materials and the power of the Purple Micro Star of the Three Enclosures of the Starry Sky. Their defensive power against spells was second to none.
The items that Liang Pan gave were all sets. There was the Purple Micro Fairy Robe for magic clothing, the Fengyi Sacrificial Sword for magic swords, the Ruyi Jadeite and the Coiled Dragon Jade Belt, which looked like accessories but were also powerful Golden Elixir Period magic tools. There were twenty of each.
Even though the Great Zhou Dynasty was rich, taking out so many items at once would hurt their vitality.
After the gifts were all announced, Mei Wulang took out a white jade scroll from his sleeve and said to Lin Feng respectfully, "His Majesty knows that Mister Zhang Da and the Xuanmen Sect's leader are at odds. He is deeply worried and ordered me to give you this jade scroll as an apology."
The jade scroll opened and emitted a dazzling white light. In the center of the white light was a shining crown. Two shadows were projected from the crown. One of the shadows was dignified and sacred, while the other was evil and domineering.
The two shadows merged together and produced a violent energy wave, as if it could tear the void at any time.
The Yuanying magic tool, the Ghost God Golden Crown!
Wu Yunliang and Meng Chaoran looked at each other and sighed at the same time. Meng Chaoran said, "If it's to buy Zhang Hai's life, these things are clearly too expensive."
"One life? It's more than enough to buy ten lives, "Wu Yunliang slowly nodded his head," The Great Zhou Dynasty wants to form an alliance with Xuanmen Tianzong! "
Meng Chaoran frowned, "But the Xuanmen Sect's leader and the Marquis of Xuanji Zhu Hongwu don't seem to get along, a rift will eventually appear between them. Liang Pan can't let his trusted subordinates' hearts turn cold because of an outsider."
"But before the rift breaks, both sides will have common interests." Wu Yunliang's eyes flashed, saying in a low voice, "Befriend distant enemies and attack close ones, the simplest and plainest principle is often the most correct."
Befriend distant enemies and attack close ones.
Meng Chaoran chewed on these words and immediately understood.
Even though Yujing Mountain can travel through space, the power structure of the Divine Land has already stabilized. Only Kunlun Mountain is relatively empty.
Lin Feng's foundation is in Kunlun Mountain. Between him and the Great Zhou Dynasty is the Qin Dynasty and Mount Shu Sword Sect. Even if the two sides have conflicts, they can still coexist peacefully for a short period of time. On the contrary, they can attack the other powers between the two together.
In a situation where Lin Feng is at odds with the Yu family and Mount Shu Sword Sect at the same time, this makes the Great Zhou Dynasty even more assured in roping him in.
Of course, the prerequisite is that Lin Feng has to display his strength and have the value to be roped in.
Meng Chaoran suddenly raised his head and looked towards Wu Yunliang: "The Great Zhou Dynasty has intentions of making a move against the Great Qin Dynasty?"
Wu Yunliang nodded his head, his eyes shining brightly: "This is precisely our Beyond Heaven Mountain's chance."
Meng Chaoran suddenly said: "However, just the strength that Xuanmen Tianzong has displayed right now is only on par with the Celeritas Sword Sect and the Blaze Sword Sect. It doesn't seem to be enough for the Great Zhou Dynasty to invest so much capital."
Wu Yunliang said: "Maybe there are other reasons, we'll wait and see."
His heart felt a bit cold because Wu Yunliang suddenly thought of before, when Zhang Hai was just about to make a move against Zhu Yi, Lin Feng said something that seemed to make people scratch their heads: "In the end, the Great Zhou Dynasty is still Emperor Liang Pan of Zhou who calls the shots."
At the time he was baffled, but connecting it to the scene in front of him, Wu Yunliang said: "Could it be that the master of the Xuan Gate already predicted that this would happen?"
Lin Feng calmly looked at Mei Wulang and the attendants behind him, smiling faintly saying: "I welcome every friendly fellow cultivator."
He pointed with a finger and the little world that trapped Zhang Hai once again turned into clouds of purple gas, releasing Zhang Hai who was originally close to despair.
Zhang Hai stared at Lin Feng with a dazed expression for a while, then looked at Mei Wulang. After a long time he sighed, but didn't say anything.
Emperor Liang Pan of Zhou's actions with such great fanfare, the Marquis of Xuanji Zhu Hongwu must have agreed. Even if he didn't agree, he must have tacitly agreed.
The reason why he didn't inform Zhang Hai is probably because he didn't give up, wanting to test Lin Feng's true strength.
Looking at it now, Zhang Hai has successfully played the role of a touchstone. From a certain perspective, this trip was not made in vain.
Only, completing his mission like this made Zhang Hai laugh bitterly in his heart, not saying anything.
Lin Feng released Zhang Hai, but it's not over. He directly released the Mount Shu sword cultivator Kong Chang who was also sealed in his little world.
This time, everyone present was shocked.
Even Mei Wulang inwardly furrowed his brows: "Lin Feng dared to beat Kong Chang to this state, that means he clearly isn't afraid of the Mount Shu Sword Sect's revenge. But why did he release Kong Chang now?"
Kong Chang himself was also shocked and suspicious: "Just what …"
But Lin Feng didn't wait for him to finish, directly using a cloud of purple gas to wrap around his sword nascent soul, sending it before Yang Tonghui. Then he said faintly: "Today is the day I open my mountain and accept a disciple. I've already seen enough blood. This Kong True Monarch, I'll have to trouble Fellow Daoist Yang to send him back to Mount Shu."
Yang Tonghui stared blankly, his expression instantly becoming strange.
Right now, Kong Chang falling into the hands of the Heavenly Sword Sect was no different from a hot potato. If it wasn't handled well, there would be great trouble.
But if it was handled properly, there would be great benefits.
"This Master of the Profound Gate, could it be …" Yang Tonghui's heart moved, his expression becoming more and more complicated.
And Lin Feng no longer paid attention to him, turning his head to look at the distant horizon. He said faintly: "Old friends reunite, aren't you going to come out and meet?"
In the distant horizon, the clouds instantly dispersed, revealing a person's figure.
