After Chu Mo sat down, he ordered a pot of wine and two side dishes. Then, he pricked up his ears and listened to the conversation in the tavern.
"Hey, have you heard? An immortal beast at the peak of the Great Vehicle Stage has appeared in the South Mountains. It is said that the immortal beast is full of treasures, but it is very fierce. Even an ordinary Ascension Stage cultivator can't do anything to it! "
"That's nothing. An ancient relic was excavated in the East Gate. It's a real ancient relic! Unfortunately, it was occupied by the Ancient Nether Sect and no one can enter. "
"I've also heard about this. It seems that they found something extraordinary in there!"
"Who knows, there are actually many ancient relics in our Immortal Realm, but most of them are not very valuable. After all, the ancient era is too long ago, and there are even fewer things that can survive until today! "
"But anything that can be preserved to this day is not ordinary!"
"That's true, but who would dare to snatch something from the Ancient Nether Sect?"
"Hehe … that's true."
At the next table, there were a few cultivators in Taoist robes, who looked to be in their forties or fifties. Their faces were full of the vicissitudes of time, and it was obvious that their realms were not particularly high. The strongest one had just entered the Spirit Refinement Stage.
The others were all Nascent Soul Stage cultivators.
Chu Mo secretly judged that these people should be rogue cultivators in this Immortal Realm.
At this time, one of the Nascent Soul Stage cultivators suddenly lowered his voice and whispered to the few people at the table, "Do you want to go to the ancient relic to have a look?"
"Do you want to die? If we are discovered by the Ancient Nether Sect, do you think we can survive? "Another Nascent Soul Stage cultivator suddenly said with a face full of fear," We haven't lived enough. "
"Nonsense, I haven't lived enough either!" The Nascent Soul Stage cultivator who just spoke raised his eyebrows, "I mean … if I have a way to go in, do you want to go?"
"What do you mean? Tell me. "The Spirit Refinement Stage cultivator finally spoke, his eyes showing a hint of interest.
"Well, I have a friend who is a disciple of the Ancient Nether Sect. Two days ago, he told me that the ancient relic he found is quite large! It was like a small world inside! If we want to thoroughly explore this place, not only will we need a lot of manpower and resources, we will also need to take a huge risk! "The Nascent Soul Stage cultivator said in a low voice.
"Risk? What kind of dangers would there be in the ancient ruins? Ten thousand years have passed … Even if there's something there, it should be long dead, right? "someone said.
"No, the Small World in the Primordial Relic is a Small World that can operate on its own. There are many living beings inside. However, most of them weren't that powerful. Still … they were still dangerous. I heard from my friend that there were casualties among the people they sent in earlier, "the Nascent Soul cultivator said.
"You mean … the Ancient Nether Sect wants to find people from the outside to explore the ancient ruins? But why hasn't there been any news about it? "the Spirit Refinement cultivator asked with a frown.
"This is insider information! I'm guessing they'll release the news soon. " The Nascent Soul cultivator said, "What I mean is, if you want, I can arrange for us to go in first through my friend. Otherwise, once the news gets out, I'm afraid there will be many people who will respond. "
The few people at the table all fell into deep thought.
They didn't question their companion's words. For example, why would there be people who would respond even if there was danger? Of course, it was because there were huge benefits in it!
If there were no benefits, even if there was no danger, no one would go. If there were huge benefits, then even if there was a possibility of dying inside, there would still be people who would respond!
In the Immortal World, there were simply countless rogue cultivators like them. Those who had the ability would naturally look for various resources on their own. But for more people … the resources at hand simply couldn't meet the consumption brought about by their cultivation. So what should they do?
Or they could go around and rob other weak cultivators. But this kind of thing, sooner or later, they would be caught. Once they met a powerful person, it would be a dead end.
Or they could join a certain sect or enter a certain family. But in this way, it was tantamount to losing their freedom. Moreover, their cultivation was not too high. Even if they joined a sect or entered a family, they would not be valued. In some dangerous times, they would still be used as cannon fodder.
So this group of people would rather be a free rogue cultivator. Although resources were scarce, it was better than freedom. No one would force them to do anything.
Rogue cultivators had their own benefits, but they also had a lot of troubles. Therefore, they usually wouldn't give up the opportunity to be hired to explore the ancient ruins.
Then, the Spirit Refinement cultivator finally asked, "How do we split it?"
"One hundred and ninety." The Nascent Soul cultivator said, "This is already the biggest benefit that my friend can get for us! When the news is announced, I'm afraid there will only be some Immortal Crystals as a reward! "
"One hundred and ninety … is not high!" The Spirit Refinement cultivator gritted his teeth with a helpless expression on his face.
"It doesn't seem high, but looking at how much they value it, there should be something good in it!" The Nascent Soul cultivator said, "If there really is a special top-grade magic artifact, scripture, or elixir recipe, then the value … is far beyond what Immortal Crystals can measure! If it is elixir recipe or scripture, we can even secretly write it down ourselves! At that time … "
He didn't continue, but everyone present understood that if that was the case, then they would really be rich!
Although this might only be a beautiful wish or even just a fantasy, people living … if they didn't even have a little wish, it would be a bit too boring.
"Okay, let's do it. Go and tell your friend," the Spirit Refinement cultivator said and glanced at the people around him.
They didn't use voice transmission to talk among themselves, so naturally, many people in the tavern heard it.
Some people's faces also showed that they were tempted.
Sure enough, as soon as the Spirit Refinement cultivator's voice fell, a bearded man in the tavern directly stood up and cupped his fists towards their table. "Fellow daoists, can you take me with you? I am at the peak of the Nascent Soul Realm. If you are willing to take me in, I am willing to pay 100 Immortal Crystals! "
As the bearded man spoke, he directly took out a small storage bag from his body and directly opened it. A wave of energy came out from it. Then he asked, "How about it?"
"100 Immortal Crystals …" The Spirit Refinement cultivator's eyes were a bit dazed.
The bearded man mistakenly thought that the cultivator thought it was too little. He frowned and said, "This is all I have. How about this, if we can get anything in there, I can give you another 10%!"
"Ah? Really? "The Spirit Refinement cultivator suddenly came back to his senses and looked at the bearded man with a face of surprise.
The bearded man said, "I am Li Fu. If you have been here for a long time, you should have heard of my name. I always keep my word."
"So you are Fellow daoist Li Fu, I have long heard of your name!" After hearing this name, the Spirit Refinement cultivator actually stood up and cupped his fists towards Li Fu.
A smile appeared on Li Fu's face. "So, is this okay?"
The Spirit Refinement cultivator glanced at the Nascent Soul Realm cultivator who claimed to have a brother in the Ancient Nether Sect. The latter immediately nodded. "No problem!"
"Boss, can you take me with you?"
"I also have Immortal Crystals … Big Brother, can you add me in?"
"I don't have that many Immortal Crystals, but if there is anything in there, I am willing to give half of it to thank you."
"Senior …"
There were a total of a few dozen people in the tavern. Almost half of them were a little restless.
