"Join forces with the Soul Refining Sect?" Hayashikawa's pupils shrank slightly.
As a very special existence among the second-class cultivation sects, the Soul Refining Sect was even feared by the first-class cultivation sects. After all, their special method of attacking souls was really hard to guard against. Moreover, their spiritual power cultivation could not be used as a standard to judge their strength. They were an existence that all the major sects in the Nakagawa Continent respected and stayed away from.
In addition, if the Soul Refining Sect wanted to infiltrate a sect, their method of devouring souls was chilling. Therefore, the Soul Refining Sect's reputation on the Nakagawa Continent was not very good. They were somewhat similar to the Origin Sect, powerful and evil.
"Your Three-Eye Alliance can already be established as a new first-class cultivation sect. However, in the Three-Eye Alliance, Daybreak has the Lin family as their backing, Daybreak has the Origin Sect as their backing, and Daybreak has the Origin Sect as their backing. Now, Daybreak can only rely on itself. Although the Sanqing Sect, Sky First Sword Sect, and other sects are very close to you, you can't order them to do things. It's just a situation of mutual benefit. If you can get the help of our Soul Refining Sect, then the Akatsuki will have more say in the Three-Eye Alliance and can be more unscrupulous on the Nakagawa Continent."
Hayashikawa looked at the old man in front of him and narrowed his eyes slightly.
What he said was indeed true. Judging from the current situation of the Akatsuki, there was indeed no powerful sect that could completely obey the Akatsuki. However, this did not mean that they had no say. Moreover, even if they cooperated with the Soul Refining Sect, would they obey the Akatsuki?
"Sect leader Hun Shang, are you saying that you're willing to obey the Akatsuki? After all, if it's just a cooperation, there's no difference between you and the Sanqing Sect. "Qin Lang said softly.
"With my strength, of course I won't obey you. However, I can entrust a part of the Soul Refining Sect to you. Alternatively, you can take them into your Ninja Sect. This way, there won't be a problem of who to obey because they will also become a part of your Ninja Sect. As for me, you can give me the identity of an elder." Hun Shang said with a smile.
"Oh? In that case, what does Sect Master Hun Shang need us to do? "Hayashikawa asked.
If one wanted to obtain something, they naturally had to pay a certain price. Hayashikawa did not believe that Hun Shang would be so kind as to hand over the Soul Refining Sect to them. Even if Hun Shang was willing to do so, Hayashikawa did not dare accept it.
"I don't need you to do anything. I just want to tie our interests together. Besides, this isn't my idea. It's the Soul Ancestor's idea," Hun Shang said softly.
Hayashikawa and Qin Lang looked at each other. Both of them felt that this matter was not as simple as it seemed.
"In addition, the Soul Ancestor asked me to give you something. It can be considered as settling some of the grudges between our sect and you in the Floating Spirit Region." As soon as Hun Shang finished speaking, he took out a jade bottle from his storage ring.
As soon as the jade bottle appeared, the surrounding Spiritual Qi of Heaven and Earth began to fluctuate violently. Especially the pressure contained within, it was extremely terrifying. Even Lin Chuan and Qin Lang could feel the oppressive force rushing towards them. This kind of pressure did not come from one's strength, but more like a suppression from a higher level.
"This is …" Hayashikawa's expression changed slightly.
He felt a sense of deja vu as if he had just encountered it not long ago. Then, he suddenly recalled that this was the pressure of a Mystic Immortal.
"Mystic Immortal Skeleton!" Hayashikawa finally confirmed that the pressure in the jade bottle was none other than the Mystic Immortal Skeleton. However, given how small the jade bottle was, it should not contain a skeleton.
"That's right. I've already used a special method to break open the Mystic Immortal Skeleton you gave the Soul Ancestor to refine this True Immortal Bone Marrow," Hun Shang explained.
"What's the use of this thing?" Hayashikawa frowned.
Back in the Immortal Primordial World, they had divided the Mystic Immortal Skeleton among themselves. The Mystic Immortal Qi on it could speed up their cultivation and allow them to see the secrets of Immortal Ascension. However, after the skeleton was split up, the Qi on it gradually began to recede. There was not much Mystic Immortal Qi left. Many large forces treated it as a treasure and kept it for research. However, up until now, they had not found any other uses for the skeleton.
At this moment, Hun Shang had actually broken open the skeleton to refine this True Immortal Bone Marrow. This was something that Hayashikawa did not expect.
"The Soul Ancestor told me that if I want to enter the depths of the Great Si Rippling Water, I need the True Immortal Bone Marrow to open the Immortal Bestowment Platform. He wanted me to give you this bone marrow. However, this bit of bone marrow is not enough. You need to find a way to gather the scattered Mystic Immortal Bones and refine even more True Immortal Bone Marrow. You need at least two-thirds of the skeleton," said Hun Shang.
"Immortal Bestowment Platform?" Hayashikawa's eyes suddenly narrowed.
This was the first time he had heard of this. No one should know what the depths of the Great Si Rippling Water were like. However, from what Hun Shang said, the Soul Ancestor seemed to be rather familiar with the place. He even knew how to reach the depths.
However, if the Soul Ancestor really was the founder of the Soul Refining Sect, then he probably knew more secrets than anyone could imagine since he had lived from that era until now.
"I don't know the specifics. The Soul Ancestor only told me some things and asked me to tell you. I can't do anything else," said Hun Shang.
Hayashikawa took the True Immortal Bone Marrow from Hun Shang. His eyes revealed a thoughtful look. After a while, he said, "I can accept the cooperation with the Soul Refining Sect. However, I need to see the Soul Ancestor in person to confirm a more intimate cooperation."
"Alright." Hun Shang nodded. "However, there's something you need to know. In half a month, the Soul Refining Sect will participate in a great battle. If you're willing, you can come along. After all, both sides of the battle can be considered your old friends."
"Who?" Hayashikawa frowned.
"The Assassin Alliance's assassin organization, Heavenly Court, and the reincarnator you met in the South Ming Continent, Liu Yong," said Hun Shang softly.
"Heavenly Court and Liu Yong? Why are they fighting? Didn't the Heavenly Court disappear after the Crown Prince's corpse died?" Hayashikawa asked in surprise.
"You know that Liu Yong is a reincarnator. However, you probably don't know that he's the previous ruler of the Heavenly Court. Strictly speaking, the Crown Prince's corpse is Liu Yong's disciple. He plotted against Liu Yong and seized control of the Heavenly Court from him. However, Liu Yong was not destined to die. He reincarnated in the South Ming Continent. Now, he's just taking back what originally belonged to him," Hun Shang said softly, revealing this huge secret to Hayashikawa.
