There were currently four captives in the Illusory Demon Orb: Xie Jian, Maki Cangsheng, Xu Tianxing, and Lan Caixin.
The four of them were locked in four separate cages. Other than Xu Tianxing and Lan Caixin who were closer, the other two were dozens of miles away and did not know of each other's existence.
After ten days of recuperation, Maki Cangsheng had fully recovered from his injuries.
However, he was in low spirits and looked dispirited. He no longer had the vigor of the Tianji Saint. He was like a pool of stagnant water.
Outside the cage, a figure had appeared out of nowhere. He sat cross-legged on the ground, drinking wine while observing Maki Cangsheng with interest.
That's right, this figure was Lin Xuan.
Mu Cangsheng had always been regarded as a troublesome opponent by him, but now, this troublesome opponent had become his prisoner. Admiring the expression of his opponent in this kind of situation was really a good dish to go with wine.
After a long time, Maki Cangsheng gradually felt Lin Xuan's gaze. He slowly turned his head and looked at Lin Xuan calmly, but did not say a word.
This calmness was a kind of hopeless calmness.
Based on his understanding of Lin Xuan, this opponent was almost invulnerable. Since he had fallen into Lin Xuan's hands, there was no way he could turn the tables in this life. Therefore, he did not intend to beg for mercy or struggle fearlessly.
The two of them stared at each other for a full three minutes. Neither of them made a sound. Only the occasional sound of the wine pot in Lin Xuan's hand could be heard.
Perhaps it was because he found it a little boring, Lin Xuan gave a playful smile. "Mu Cangsheng, did you know that the cage you're in right now, the seat you're sitting in, was occupied by another person a year ago? That was a woman, a woman whose ambition was higher than a man's.
However, even though that woman was imprisoned, she did not despair. Instead, she racked her brains to find a way out at all costs.
In the end, she succeeded and obtained her freedom.
Well, now that I think about it, I seem to have made a bad deal, but I don't regret it.
Maki Cangsheng, I've suffered at your hands before, and you're the only person of the same age who's made me suffer at your hands. That's why I once thought highly of you.
But from the looks of it now, you're just so-so. You can't even compare to a woman. "
Hearing Lin Xuan's words, Maki Cangsheng's deathly still eyes lit up with a faint glimmer of light.
He looked straight at Lin Xuan and said in a slightly hoarse voice, "You're talking about Mu Qingning, right? You let her go because you no longer see her as a threat, but I didn't think you would be so magnanimous to me. "
Lin Xuan smiled, "What does this have to do with being magnanimous? The reason why I, Lin Xuan, am where I am today is because I know clearly what I want.
Maki Cangsheng, show me what you're worth, and let me see if you have the right to continue living! Live freely! "
"Oh?"
Maki Cangsheng's eyes finally regained their clarity and wisdom. He suddenly looked up at the sky and laughed, "Hahahaha! What a joke, what a joke! To think that I, Maki Cangsheng, have always boasted of my unparalleled ability to judge people, but to think that I would make such a laughable mistake! "
He suddenly stood up and stared at Lin Xuan, "Lin Xuan, you've once again made me look at you in a new light! Tell me, what do you want? "
Lin Xuan shook his head and said with a playful smile, "It's not what I want, but what you can give me. Then, I can judge your ending based on the value you provide."
Maki Cangsheng frowned and couldn't help but rack his brain.
There were many good things in his original storage ring, but it was a pity that the ring had been taken away by Lin Xuan, so it obviously couldn't be considered his own.
After thinking about it, it seemed that there was only one thing that could move Lin Xuan.
He said in a deep voice, "Lin Xuan, I once obtained a method to refine an avatar from the ruins beyond the heavens. Can you exchange it for my freedom?"
Lin Xuan's eyes lit up slightly. So this guy obtained the secret method from the ruins beyond the heavens. Unfortunately, he couldn't find anything even after searching Maki Cangsheng's storage ring.
He shook his head indifferently, "This secret method is useful to me, but it's not enough!"
Mu Cangsheng furrowed his brows and said, "Lin Xuan, perhaps you don't understand the strength of this secret technique. Generally speaking, only those at the Transcendent Realm and above are able to refine clones.
But this secret method is different. As long as one's Spirit is strong enough, even a Divine Astral Realm martial artist can do it. Its value is definitely not lower than a Dao Rank magic weapon. "
Lin Xuan sneered playfully, "I understand what you're saying, but I don't think it's enough to exchange for your freedom."
Maki Cangsheng's expression changed slightly. He instantly understood that it wasn't that the secret method wasn't valuable enough, but that if Lin Xuan wanted this secret method, he could have swallowed him directly.
These days, he had already figured out that the reason Lin Xuan could catch him so easily was that Lin Xuan had swallowed Mo Xiaoyao's Spirit and integrated it with the Heart of the Stone Demon, which gave him the ability to travel through the earth. His defeat was not unjustified at all.
If Lin Xuan really wanted to get the secret method inheritance in his mind, it wouldn't be too much trouble.
What a troublesome guy!
Maki Cangsheng was annoyed.
His expression was uncertain, as if he was hesitating.
Lin Xuan was not in a hurry as he leisurely drank his wine, quietly waiting for Mu Cangsheng's reply.
In fact, swallowing Maki Cangsheng was just a last resort. What he wanted more was for Maki Cangsheng to submit to him and work for him wholeheartedly. At that time, the secret method of the avatar would still belong to him, and he would have a capable subordinate.
Maki Cangsheng actually vaguely understood Lin Xuan's plan, but he wasn't someone who was willing to submit to others.
After a moment of hesitation, he looked up at Lin Xuan and said in a low voice, "Lin Xuan, do you know why Yu Tianxing and I are after the Great Yin Dynasty's Treasure?"
"Oh? Tell me about it, "Lin Xuan said with interest.
Maki Cangsheng said, "The Daqian Dynasty is already in its twilight, and it has been struggling at death's door for the past hundred years. Yu Tianxing once tried to weaken the sects in the world to prolong the Daqian Dynasty's life. However, fate is difficult, and the decline of the Daqian Dynasty is inevitable. Yu Tianxing is powerless to reverse the situation, and he only has less than two years left in his term as Crown Prince.
Therefore, Yu Tianxing planned to take advantage of the Daqian Dynasty's last breath to split the last bit of the Daqian Dynasty's fortune with me. "
"Oh?"
Lin Xuan's pupils shrank, and his heart was shocked!
Although the Daqian Dynasty had been in decline for a long time, the majesty of the imperial court had long been deeply rooted in the people's hearts. Even in some rebellious areas, the ordinary civilians still admired the imperial grace.
This undoubtedly showed that the Daqian Dynasty's fortune was still not over, and its fortune must be incomparably great. It was probably countless times greater than the Dragon Soul Hall when it was at its peak.
Yu Tianxing and Maki Cangsheng, these two young geniuses, actually wanted to split the Daqian Dynasty's fortune. This was simply wishful thinking.
He sneered, "The two of you have quite a big appetite, but what does this have to do with the Dayin Dynasty's treasure trove?"
Maki Cangsheng continued, "There should be a map of the Heaven Sacrificial Array in the Dayin Dynasty's treasure trove. It was because of this map that the emperor of the Dayin Dynasty finally suffered the wrath of the heavens. If we can get the map, our plan will be very feasible. "
"I see."
Lin Xuan suddenly understood, but he said disdainfully, "Maki Cangsheng, should I say that you are daring, or should I say that you are whimsical?
