Actually, Ye Kong wasn't boasting when he said these words. Indeed, he didn't lack Spirit Stones or treasures. This trip to the Five Elements Immortal Mansion wasn't a treasure hunt. Most importantly, he wanted to verify two things. First, what was the relationship between the Five Elements Immortal Mansion and the Five Elemental Cultivator? Could he find out about the Five Elemental Cultivator's life and mission? Second, what was the Bronze Man's face in his Storage Ring? Why did it keep causing trouble for him?
Seeing that Ye Kong had agreed, Pan Dong heaved a sigh of relief in his heart. He smiled and said, "Fellow Ye, don't think that what I said just now was just to comfort you. Actually, I really made a prophecy for everyone in the team. It's true that your treasures should be the most important."
Ye Kong was comforted when he heard this. He smiled and said, "Actually, treasures can only be used to their greatest potential if they're in the hands of the most suitable person. Some treasures might not be treasures to others. Perhaps it's just a single sentence, but to me, it's the greatest treasure. "
"It's good that you think so." Pan Dong smiled and continued to walk forward. He said, "The Five Elements Immortal Mansion is probably worried that other sects will try to take the treasures for themselves. So, it's a rule that each team can only have six people. This time, we have six people."
As they chatted, they arrived at a market in Snow Shadow City. This market was not any other market, but a labor market. There were many young and strong men in short clothes squatting there. These were all ordinary people. They did not have a normal job, nor did they have any skills. They could only wait here for work, begging others to hire them back to do temporary work. These people were called muscleheads.
When they saw Pan Dong and Ye Kong come in, many muscleheads immediately surrounded them.
"Immortal Master, use me. I'm strong. I can carry a few hundred kilograms at a time."
"Immortal Master, use me. I'm younger and more agile."
"Can't you use your brains? When Immortal Master uses immortal spells, can you beat him no matter how strong you are? Immortal Master must be looking for a guide. Hire me, I'm familiar with the way. "
Pan Dong paid no attention to these muscleheads that surged forward. Instead, he raised his hand and pointed at the shirtless burly man who was squatting silently in the distance and shouted, "You over there, come out here. I'll take you. Food and lodging will be provided. A copper coin a day?"
Hearing Pan Dong's words, all the muscleheads looked at him with disdain. What kind of Immortal Master was this? So stingy? One copper a day? It's not even enough to buy a sesame seed cake.
However, the burly man happily walked over and replied, "Immortal Master, one copper coin per day is fine. But let me tell you in advance, I can eat a lot."
A few musclemen at the side jeered, "That's right, Immortal Master. Last time, a squire hired him, and he ate three taels of silver just by giving him steamed buns. It's not worth hiring him."
The muscleheads nodded but didn't leave. He asked, "That's right, Immortal Master. Last time, a steward hired him. He ate three taels of silver just by eating steamed buns. It's not worth it to hire him."
The muscleheads nodded but didn't leave. He asked, "Is that job tiring? I won't accept a job that doesn't tire me to death."
Ye Kong was stunned. The other muscleheads were looking for comfortable jobs, but this kid wanted to do tiring jobs. There were really all kinds of sects in the Cloud Eight Thousand Demon Sects.
Pan Dong said with a smile, "I guarantee that you'll be tired to death. So tired that you'll vomit blood."
The musclehead was immediately overjoyed. He turned around and said, "Everyone, Old Li is going to work now. When I come back with money, I'll treat you to ten taels of silver worth of noodles."
The muscleheads laughed and jeered, "One copper a day. By the time you treat us to a big meal, we'll already be buried."
The musclehead called Old Li didn't get angry. He smiled honestly and followed Pan Dong out of the labor market.
Outside, Ye Kong hurriedly cupped his fists and said, "Greetings, Senior. How should I address you?"
Although Ye Kong appeared to be in the middle stage of Gold Core, he was actually the Yuanying Divine Lord. Therefore, he could see this person's cultivation with the Heaven's Eye Technique. This person was actually a Yuanying Great Circle cultivator. Obviously, this old guy had turned into a mortal among the mortals.
However, other people turned into mortals by suppressing their cultivation, opening a small shop, and coldly observing the changes of the world. Although they had entered the world, they had already left it. They had seen the prosperity and changes of the world, but their hearts were still. This was the way to turn into a mortal.
However, this musclehead was different. Not only did he not suppress his cultivation, he even mixed in with the lowest level laborers. It was unknown if he was here to turn into a mortal or if he was pretending to be a pig to eat a tiger. However, even if he wanted to pretend to be a pig to eat a tiger, he had to be in a place where there were women present. What was the use of pretending to be a pig to eat a tiger?
However, Pan Dong first smiled and answered Ye Kong's question. He said, "This is Fellow Daoist Li Jiankuang of the Ailao Demon Sect. Don't be surprised. The Ailao Demon Sect takes pride in being a laborer. This is their special method of turning into a mortal. Let me tell you, other people need several lifetimes to turn into a mortal, but the people of the Ailao Demon Sect usually only need one lifetime to find their own Soul Formation Boundary."
Ye Kong was a little confused. He asked, "It's said that turning into a mortal is to enter the world, but not out of it. Senior, you are completely mixed in the streets. Although you have entered the world, you are not out of it. Moreover, you don't hide your cultivation. Any cultivator can see that you are extraordinary. Can you turn into a mortal like this? "
Li Jiankuang smiled and said, "Our Ailao Demon Sect uses body cultivation to enter the Dao, so we don't talk about these things. What's more, the so-called turning into a mortal is not to pretend to be a mortal. No matter how well you pretend, your heart is not the heart of a mortal, so how can you have the experience and understanding of a mortal? The key to turning into a mortal is to have the heart of a mortal. "
Ye Kong was stunned for a long time. After a while, he bowed and said, "Thank you for teaching me, Senior. The so-called turning into a mortal is to have the heart of a mortal, and not to pretend to be a mortal. Good, very well said."
Li Jiankuang laughed and said, "Actually, I haven't succeeded in turning into a mortal. This is what the seniors of the Ailao Demon Sect said." After saying that, he said to Pan Dong, "Is this the little cultivator who can bring us good luck that you mentioned last time? Not bad, I like this young man. "
Pan Dong, Ye Kong, and Li Jiankuang, that was three people. Who were the other three people?
Li Jiankuang smiled and said, "I haven't seen Wang Xin and Liu Shanshan for many years."
Pan Dong smiled and said, "Come with me. Not only them, but there is also someone you haven't seen for many years!"
Seeing that they were chatting enthusiastically, Ye Kong couldn't interrupt. After all, the people they were talking about were people that Ye Kong didn't know at all.
Pan Dong brought them out of Snow Shadow City's grand five-in-one city and came to an empty space outside the city. He poured out countless pieces of wood, waste paper, and other rubbish from his storage pouch and lit them on fire. The fire raged and thick smoke billowed.
Ye Kong was confused and didn't know what Pan Dong was doing. Although this world didn't care about saving energy and reducing emissions, polluting the environment like this was still despicable. I am a very environmentally friendly cultivator.
Seeing that Ye Kong was confused, Li Jiankuang explained, "Friend Ye, don't be surprised. The Wang Xin we are waiting for is from the Fire Reverence Demon Sect. The cultivation method of the Fire Reverence Demon Sect is to absorb all kinds of Heavenly Flames. So if we want to find them, we just need to set up a big fire and they will definitely come to take a look. "
"Oh, the Fire Reverence Demon Sect." Ye Kong's heart moved. Why did this name sound so familiar?
But very soon, he remembered.
Wasn't Qiu Guofeng from the Fire Reverence Demon Sect? Thinking back, when he was refining magic treasures in the foundation establishment realm, he couldn't release his pill fire. It was all thanks to Qiu Guofeng that he could absorb the Cangbei Frost Fire.
Ye Kong had already promised Qiu Guofeng to let him see the Fire Reverence Demon Sect, but he turned into a thin layer. Later on, Qiu Guofeng requested to tell the Fire Reverence Demon Sect's secrets to the juniors of the Fire Reverence Demon Sect and told them not to ascend until they reached the Mahayana Realm.
Originally, Ye Kong was worried about not having time to go to the Fire Reverence Demon Sect. Now, he actually met a disciple of the Fire Reverence Demon Sect … But how should he explain this matter?
Just as Ye Kong was hesitating, two streaks of light flew out of the Snow Shadow City. The streaks of light belonged to a man and a woman. Their figures flickered, and the streaks of light also flickered. With one look, one could tell that the Yuanying Divine Lord was using the teleportation technique.
Ye Kong and the rest were less than a hundred miles away from the city. With just a teleportation, the two of them stood in front of Ye Kong and the rest.
Wang Xin was a member of the Fire Reverence Devil Sect after all. His face was red and his hair was black. His hair was standing up like a flame. As soon as he arrived, he emitted an intense heat.
Although Ye Kong and the rest were Yuanying Divine Lord, they didn't feel much about the heat. But if they were mortals or low-level cultivators, they would still find it hard to bear.
Just as Ye Kong was muttering about how this fella interacted with others, another wave of frost energy came. The power of the frost energy was actually not inferior to the heat. As soon as the cold and heat collided, the heat instantly dissipated into nothingness.
The one who brought the frost energy was a woman. She was Wang Xin True Lord's dao companion, Liu Shanshan True Lord.
Ye Kong finally understood how Wang Xin interacted with mortals. As long as he brought his wife wherever he went, he would naturally be safe.
When Wang Xin arrived, Li Jiankuang immediately smiled and said, "After not seeing each other for so many years, I didn't expect both of you to also enter the late Yuanying stage. Speaking of which, both of your cultivations should increase together. Old Li doesn't want to become a roasted pig."
Although True Lord Liu Shanshan True Lord's power was cold, she was very warm. She smiled and said, "Big Brother Li, that's not right. If you don't want to become a roasted pig, why don't you say you don't want to become an ice pig? Do you look down on us women and think that women's cultivation is inferior to men's? "
Li Jiankuang was immediately speechless by Liu Shanshan's words. He could only scratch his head and smile honestly.
This pair of dao companions was very strange. The one who cultivated the cold energy was warm, while the one who cultivated the True Fire Chant was cold. Wang Xin saw that his old friend still had a cold expression. He only moved the corner of his mouth when he looked at Pan Dong and Li Jiankuang, meaning that he had already smiled.
Then, he took a fancy to Ye Kong. He sized him up and said, "Middle-stage Core Formation. Ordinary middle-stage Core Formation cultivators wouldn't feel unbearable standing in front of me, but they wouldn't be so relaxed either."
It was obvious that the reason why he had suddenly come over and released the flames from his body was to test Ye Kong to a large extent.
