676 Invitation to Join
After returning to the valley, Lin Mo took away the precious treasures of Zhao Tianyu and Feng Tian.
“Not bad…”
There were quite a few treasures that he could not identify, so he waited for the system space’s introduction.
[Heaven-grade tier 5 magic tool, the Sea Calming Pearl. It is a treasure created by imitating the supreme treasure, Sea Calming Divine Pearl. It can create space.]
[Crimson Heavenly Fire Seed, an immortal-grade treasure. After refining it, one can greatly comprehend the Fire Dao Law.]
“Good stuff…” Lin Mo was shocked. This was actually an immortal-grade treasure. It was truly rare.
If it was refined by Song Lianxue, while she would not reach the peak, she could not be underestimated.
[Holy Fire Technique, a heaven-grade tier 9 cultivation technique. Only by controlling a flame born from heaven and earth in one’s body can one successfully cultivate it.]
A scroll appeared. It was a heaven-grade tier 9 cultivation technique. It must be Zhao Tianyu’s treasure.
It must be a cultivation technique that was passed down in Zhao Tianyu’s clan. If Lin Mo cultivated it, it would probably bring him a fatal disaster.
As for the Crimson Heavenly Fire Seed, Lin Mo probably could not give it out either. Otherwise, the other party’s clan would not let him go.
Snow Valley would not go to war with a big clan for a disciple…
“Lin Mo, are you really going to take these two as your subordinates?” Qilin walked over.
She took away all the spiritual and divine herbs from Zhao Tianyu and Feng Tian without any hesitation.
Although the two of them were not weak, it was obvious that they would not be willing to be Lin Mo’s subordinates.
“If they don’t submit, then they can just die,” Lin Mo said indifferently.
He thought back to his encounter in Cloud State a long time ago. Back then, Gongsun Wenhao had a large number of followers.
Even Feng Tian and Zhao Tianyu had people following them.
This might be the reason their strengths improved so quickly. Some people especially collected resources for them…
No matter how strong Lin Mo and Qilin were, they were just two people. After going into seclusion, there was no way for them to collect resources.
Having two subordinates by his side would make things more convenient.
Furthermore, Lin Mo was planning to build a Chamber of Commerce on the ancient battlefield to collect resources and auction treasures.
If he wanted to do that, he would need powerhouses in the Chamber of Commerce.
Zhao Tianyu and Feng Tian were good choices, but it was clear from their eyes that they would not submit so easily…
Outside the valley, the group of people looked at Lin Mo in horror.
Were the two geniuses of the Hidden Dragon Rank going to be eliminated just like that? That would be such a pity.
In the dark, the disciples of Zhao Tianyu and Feng Tian’s forces were trembling in fear.
They did not want their geniuses to be enslaved, but they also did not want them to be killed just like that and lose their right to fight on the ancient battlefield.
“Can you tell me if you used your full strength just now?” Feng Tian looked at Lin Mo unwillingly.
“I used about 70%.” Lin Mo told him the truth.
Feng Tian’s body trembled, his eyes filled with unwillingness and bitterness. “I should’ve thought of this earlier. The God Devouring Body is one of the strongest body types of the human race…
He had thought that the God Devouring Body was only invincible among those of the same rank.
After all, since ancient times, the God Devouring Body had not appeared in the world. The human race’s status among the myriad races was below average…
Lin Mo did not say anything more and looked at Zhao Tianyu and Feng Tian.
In the distance, many people’s scalps went numb. This was too shocking. With 70% of his combat power, Lin Mo defeated Feng Tian, who was in the ninth step of the Almighty realm…
Who could rival such a terrifying combat power?
“You only used 70%?”
On the side, Mao Zhu looked at Lin Mo in shock. Ever since they had met, Lin Mo had been refreshing her knowledge.
Now that Lin Mo had admitted to it, she finally knew how terrifying he was.
The pride in her heart was reduced, and she had no choice but to pay more attention to him. She had to work harder in the future…
“You and Qilin have offended too many people. Let them go and save some face.”
Mao Zhu advised. The two men had deep backgrounds, so it was best not to offend them.
“What are you afraid of? Many people are after us. Two more wouldn’t hurt,” Qilin said in a carefree manner.
“Hurry up and decide. Do you want to submit or die?” Qilin was getting impatient and was planning to eliminate the two young men.
“Wait a minute. You two, I’m sure you don’t want to be left behind by the geniuses of the Northern Continent.”
Lin Mo made one last attempt at persuasion and expressed his thoughts.
He and Qilin needed to cultivate, so they needed someone to take care of and hold auctions in the Chamber of Commerce if it was established.
When he and Qilin were not around, they needed someone to keep watch. This was the only way to be safe.
“With just a few of us, how big can the Chamber of Commerce be?”
Zhao Tianyu asked. Although Lin Mo and Qilin were very famous, many people wanted to target them.
Establishing a Chamber of Commerce… The next time Lin Mo and Qilin came out of seclusion, they would probably hear the news of the Chamber of Commerce being destroyed.
“How I operate it is my business. Moreover, as long as you help me, I can also provide you with cultivation resources.
“I can also guarantee that once we leave the ancient battlefield, all our grudges will be settled. You can seek revenge if you want, or you can treat me as a fellow Daoist.”
This was the biggest concession Lin Mo could make. If they still did not agree to it, he could only kill them.
“I’ll agree if you return me the Crimson Heavenly Fire Seed and the Holy Fire Technique.”
Zhao Tianyu immediately agreed to it, but he also made a request. They were the key to his cultivation, and he could not afford to make any mistakes.
“And you?”
Lin Mo looked at Feng Tian. He was very satisfied with Zhao Tianyu’s agreement. After all, he did not need to eat elixirs anymore.
With Zhao Tianyu’s alchemy skills, it should not be a problem for him to make some divine pills of heaven-grade tier 1 or 2.
“Okay, but return our treasures.”
Feng Tian nodded. He also asked Lin Mo for the treasures that had been taken away.
“Don’t worry. These treasures will help the Chamber of Commerce build up its reputation. You can just auction them off.”
Lin Mo laughed. How could he return such good things so easily?
He had to get his hands on the treasures from the rebate system no matter what. There was no room for discussion.
“The two of you, do you want to join us? If you do, I’ll take care of all your cultivation resources.”
After the young men agreed, Lin Mo looked at Mao Zhu and Song Lianxue.
They also had potential, so it would be best if he could rope them in.
“You’re also a rogue cultivator. Where would you get so many resources?” Mao Zhu did not believe him.
Any genius would consume a terrifying amount of resources, not to mention Lin Mo’s God Devouring Body.
“There’s no harm in working together. We have nowhere to go anyway…”
Song Lianxue said in a low voice, trying to persuade Mao Zhu to stay and help. She was quite tempted by Lin Mo’s offer.
Furthermore, because of the Immunity Talisman, Lin Mo had promised her that he would find her treasures to improve her aptitude.
With Mao Zhu’s help, it should be easier.
“That’s fine too, but let me say this first. If you don’t give me enough resources, I won’t stay with you anymore.”
In the end, Mao Zhu could not resist Song Lianxue’s persuasion and agreed.
Although she said that she would leave at any time, given her attitude, there should not be any problems in the short term.
“That’s great! Welcome, sisters.”
Qilin clapped happily. All this time, the people she had met were enemies. Now, she finally had companions…
