C90 The Birth of a Supreme Treasure
What appeared in front of Hong Zheng was a vast and endless mountain range.
In particular, there was an ancient mountain standing in front of him. It was like a peerless divine sword that was emitting an ancient and ancient aura.
Countless towering ancient trees stood at the foot of the mountain, forming a vast and ancient Primitive Forest. The ancient aura spread out.
And above his head was a huge sun that hung horizontally in the void. Endless scorching light sprinkled down. It was a golden color that enveloped the nine heavens and ten earths, causing the entire world to heat up.
Hong Zheng slightly narrowed his eyes and looked around.
Hundreds of cultivators were rushing towards the distance. Each of them had a vigilant expression on their faces.
Suddenly, the ground trembled, and a bright light rose from the top of the ancient mountain. The light was like a compass, emitting a rainbow-colored divine light. A divine ring appeared on the back of the light, extending into the Endless Void. A vast and boundless aura shot up into the sky.
"The birth of a supreme treasure!" Hong Zheng's pupils suddenly contracted. With his eyesight, he could tell that this light was a supreme treasure!
The Devil Devouring Beast that was dozing on Hong Zheng's shoulder suddenly opened its eyes at this moment. Its eyes were filled with confusion. It subconsciously spat out two strange syllables. Pcht... Pcht... Pcht... Pcht... Pcht... Pcht... Pcht... Pcht... Pcht... Pcht... Pcht... Pcht... Pcht... Pcht...
When the hundreds of cultivators saw the ball of light, they all went crazy. They suddenly rushed forward, but when they reached the edge of the forest... They stopped and began to retreat. This was because a pair of blood-red eyes gradually appeared in the Primitive Forest, looking at everyone with a ruthless expression.
"This is the Desolate Beast that exists in the Ancestral Land. It has no intelligence and only has the instinct to kill." An old man beside Hong Zheng muttered to himself, which was heard by Hong Zheng.
Hong Zheng raised his head and looked for Bai Yuheng. But he found that she had already disappeared.
Obviously, since they could fly, they must have crossed the void and passed through the forest.
This was because there was a legendary supreme treasure on the other side of the Great Yue, as well as a Bodhi Tree that could change a cultivator's fate.
"Bodhi Tree..." Hong Zheng recalled what Fortune-teller had told him. It seemed like the goal of all the Spiritual Body Great Stage warriors was to obtain the Bodhi Tree after Great Yue.
"Fellow Daoists, it is extremely difficult to pass through this Primitive Forest alone. We are all cultivators below the Spiritual Body. With our cultivation base, we should be able to pass through the ___ by ourselves. He was afraid that he would be devoured the moment he entered the Primitive Forest. Why don't we join forces? What do you think? " A middle-aged scholar said and bowed to the surrounding people.
When these words were said, everyone was thinking about what he had said.
"If I agree, I will join forces with you." An old man stood out.
"I agree too"
Then, another young cultivator said, "We can't have too many people. Otherwise, it will attract the attention of a large number of Desolate Beast. I feel that six or seven people in a small team is the best."
"That makes sense."
Everyone agreed.
After a while, they formed 30 teams. They were well-prepared and were about to enter the Primitive Forest. There were only four or five people left on the scene, including Hong Zheng.
Hong Zheng stood there with a calm expression. The flying Devil Devouring Beast on his shoulder was muddle-headed, sometimes sober, sometimes confused. It kept chanting Lu Wu's two syllables. Hong Zheng did not know what Lu Wu meant, so he ignored it.
"Fellow Daoist, why don't we work together?" A refined young man walked over to Hong Zheng and said with a smile, "My name is Ye Nanting."
Hong Zheng said, "Just the two of us?"
After that, he looked at a person not far away. He saw that this person was an extremely rugged man with a full beard and a fierce look on his face.
He sat there with his legs crossed and his eyes closed. His expression was strange. Sometimes it was full of killing intent, and sometimes it was very gentle. After a while, he was beaming with joy, and his eyes were filled with vulgarity.
"What exactly is this person thinking? This is very strange." When Hong Zheng looked at the man, the man opened his eyes and looked at Hong Zheng coldly, his face full of murderous intent.
Hong Zheng's pupils constricted violently. It wasn't because of the murderous look on the man's face.
Instead, it was because the crack between his brows was about to close up. That crack was the flaw of a cultivator. In other words, this man was a man who was about to make up for his flaw and reach the perfect stage of his cultivation.
His cultivation base seemed to be around the Bone Reproduction Level 1.
Then there were only two possibilities. Firstly, this man's cultivation base was extremely high, even surpassing the Spiritual Body Great Stage! Secondly, this man was born with a half-missing physique!
However, since this man couldn't travel through the void, there was only one possibility left. This burly man was born with a half-lacking constitution!
Ye Nanting also looked at that burly man, and then shifted his gaze away. But Hong Zheng could clearly see the disgust in Ye Nanting's eyes. "His name is Great Teapot, and he is a madman!"
Obviously, Great Teapot had heard what Ye Nanting said, and they were old friends. He suddenly stood up. "Ye Nanting, I want to ask, who are you calling a madman? I haven't earned a hundred crystals today, why don't you try saying I'm a madman?"
Hong Zheng was stunned. Obviously, he didn't understand what Great Teapot meant.
After saying that, Great Teapot suddenly increased his Qi. Killing intent spread out from his body as he walked towards Ye Nanting.
Ye Nanting sneered, "Do you think I'm afraid of you?"
Hong Zheng furrowed his brows. At this moment, many people had already stepped into the Primitive Forest and started killing.
"Alright, do we still want to work together?" Hong Zheng gave Ye Nanting a cold glance. This caused Ye Nanting's heart to tremble. It was as if the person standing in front of him wasn't a cultivator, but a primeval Ancient Beast!
Ye Nanting frowned. "Great Teapot, that's enough. The sky will be dark in eight hours. We must reach that place. Once the sky turns dark, go to hell and earn your Spirit Stone."
Great Teapot's face was still filled with killing intent as he stared at Ye Nanting.
Hong Zheng looked at Great Teapot coldly and walked towards him. "I will give you two choices. First, I will give you 100 crystals. We will leave immediately. Second, you will die."
He also understood that it was almost impossible for him to cross the Primitive Forest by himself. If they delayed any longer, the chances of finding Shangguan Motai would be extremely slim. Therefore, Hong Zheng did not want to delay any longer.
Great Teapot was stunned when he heard that. After a while, he rubbed his hands and asked in embarrassment, "You really gave me a hundred crystals?"
"Yes." Hong Zheng said.
"You hired me?" Great Teapot's eyes lit up.
"Yes."
"How many days do you want to hire me?" Great Teapot rubbed his hands and his face was red. He was very excited.
"One day for now." Hong Zheng was a little annoyed. Why was this person so long-winded?
Great Teapot clapped his hands. "Deal!"
After that, he stood there and counted with his fingers. "Today, I have earned a hundred crystals. I am so happy."
His face was full of smiles. There was no longer any killing intent. However, after a moment, he was filled with a ruthless aura. His face was full of unhappiness. "But I might not be able to earn a hundred crystals tomorrow."
However, in the next second, he beamed again. "What if he gives me another hundred crystals the day after tomorrow?"
However, his beaming face did not last for a second. Then, he said with a sullen face, "What if I still can't earn one hundred crystals the day after tomorrow?"
Then, he stood there and started to struggle. His expression kept changing, and it changed every second. Sometimes he was smiling, and sometimes he looked cold.
With Hong Zheng's temperament, he couldn't help but have a thought in his mind, "Is this person crazy?"
Ye Nanting snorted and politely bowed to Hong Zheng. "How should I address you?"
"Hong Zheng."
"Mr. Hong, wait here for a moment. I have two friends who are quite strong. With them here, our hope will be greater." After saying that, Ye Nanting walked into the distance. Not long after, two young men followed behind him. One of them was wearing black clothes. He had a handsome face and was filled with coldness. The other was a woman with a cold expression.
"Both of them are only Bone Reproduction Level 1 warriors. Can they cross the Primitive Forest?" The young man said with a mocking smile. He raised his head and glanced at Hong Zheng.
His cultivation base had already reached the peak of the Bone Reproduction Level 2, and he had given birth to two precious bones. His strength was formidable, and he could be called a Golden Master. The girl also looked at Hong Zheng with a doubtful expression.
Hong Zheng's expression was calm. He glanced at the young man before shifting his gaze away. He had seen many people like this, so he didn't have any interest in them. Great Teapot was immersed in endless entanglement.
He had counted to thirty-four days. According to his calculations, on the thirty-fourth day, Hong Zheng would probably give him a hundred crystals. Therefore, he was all smiles and didn't have time to pay attention to them. In his opinion, these two people weren't even as important as crystals.
Ye Nanting said, "Let me introduce you first. This is Hong Zheng. Mr. Hong, this person is nicknamed Great Teapot!"
When the woman heard Ye Nanting's introduction, she raised her eyebrows.
Ye Nanting smiled bitterly and nodded. He had already forgotten Great Teapot's real name. But he knew that almost all those prostitute knew him.
Furthermore, he also knew this person's personality. Money was his life. If one day he didn't earn enough crystals, he would definitely kill one person on that day. Moreover, he often fell into a deep state of self-entanglement.
Therefore, Ye Nanting gave Great Teapot an evaluation. He was extremely shameless, had a strange personality, but was very powerful.
After that, Ye Nanting introduced him to Hong Zheng and Great Teapot. "This is Qin Lun, and this is Lee Zhuxin. Everyone knows her. Let me say this first. After entering the Primitive Forest, all of you must do your best! Otherwise, don't blame me for being heartless. "
At the end of his words, Ye Nanting's expression turned cold.
