Chapter 38: Finally Entering the Spirit Pond
Without explaining too much to Xiao Heng and letting him rest assured, Li Fan rushed to Tianbao Tower without stopping.
Yin Yuzhen was a little surprised by Li Fan's sudden arrival.
After hearing the reason for Li Fan's coming, Yin Yuzhen explained the whole story with a sullen expression.
It turned out that after several months of inquiring, the forces on Liuli Island finally figured out that the quicksand in the Star Sea was meteorite from the sky.
But when they wanted to collect meteorite, they discovered that all the quicksand of the Star Sea within the waters of Liuli Island had been collected by Tianbao Tower.
The previous chaotic scene in the Liuli Island market was due to Tianbao Tower's secret mischief.
"Tianbao Tower is treating everyone like monkeys!" In shame and anger, they went to Liuli Island Master to seek an explanation.
Naturally, Yin Yuzhen defended herself righteously, saying that her actions were legitimate business competition.
The owner of Liuli Island also thinks that although Yin Yuzhen's approach is a bit extreme, the competition for the quota of pure body spirit pool is based on everyone's ability. As long as the materials needed by the immortal master can be collected in the end, even if the method is a little outrageous, it is not wrong. .
Therefore, the island owner did not punish Tianbao Tower, but instead reprimanded those who made trouble.
How can these people be so willing?
So a few days later, rumors began to spread on the island that Tianbaolou was secretly doing business of smuggling mortals.
And the rumors are getting more and more suspenseful, it seems that tomorrow Tianbao Tower will be questioned by the immortal master and all of them will be killed.
"So is this matter serious? Will the Immortal Master really take the blame?" After learning what happened, Li Fan couldn't help but ask.
"This is also the troublesome part of this matter." Yin Yuzhen frowned, "The so-called punishment is unpredictable, but the power is unpredictable. Helping mortals to smuggle across has never been explicitly prohibited. But after all, this matter is somewhat taboo and cannot be seen. Light."
"In addition, more than ten years ago, a certain immortal master happened to stumble upon the stowaway incident. In anger, he killed all the mortals present."
"Since then, everyone has been doing this smuggling business quietly and tacitly."
After hearing this, Li Fan also frowned slightly: "So, this matter can be big or small. How to deal with it all depends on the mood of the immortal master?"
"That's right. If the immortal master doesn't care too much, it doesn't matter. If the immortal master is in a bad mood, then..." Yin Yuzhen didn't finish her words, but her face turned a little pale.
Li Fan fell into silence.
He recalled the scene when he first met Kou Hong and Dao Xuanzi.
In the eyes of immortal cultivators like them, mortals are really like ants who can be killed at will.
"I would rather risk being beheaded than do this smuggling business. The profits are extremely high." Li Fan sighed.
"That's natural. The price of a stowaway often requires a small world to search for nearly ten years. You can imagine how much profit there is." Yin Yuzhen nodded. "Because of this, the immortal masters couldn't help but join in secretly to get a share of the pie."
"These immortal masters will never admit that they are involved in these things. When they come into contact with us, they use immortal magic to cover their faces and cannot see clearly. And in the end, they will take away most of the profits." Speaking of this, Yin Yuzhen Also a little helpless. "So we, Tianbao Tower, have to handle this matter ourselves."
Li Fan thought of the immortal master he met when he first entered the world of immortality and led the people who left the world, and nodded.
"So, what is the temperament of the immortal master stationed on Liuli Island? What is his attitude towards this matter?" Li Fan then asked.
"Master He Xianshi of Liuli Island usually lives in seclusion, and I haven't seen him a few times. So I'm really not sure about his attitude. But judging from the way he dealt with mundane matters in the past, he is not a soft-hearted person." Yin Yuzhen said in a deep voice.
After analyzing it in his mind, Li Fan finally sighed.
Li Fan knew that even though he was full of tricks, everything was in vain in the face of the absolute power gap.
There is nothing Li Fan can do about this time bomb-like instability.
Li Fan's heart moved, and he remembered the large amount of immortal miasma stored in a certain cabin of Taiyan Zhou.
"If there were thousands of dead soldiers in Daxuan, we might still be able to fight. It's a pity..."
But he soon suppressed this dangerous thought.
"Let's make an appointment to meet. After all, it shouldn't be too big a fuss." Li Fan said.
"Well, I think so too." Yin Yuzhen said.
"They just want us to hand over some Xinghai Quicksand. Anyway, we have the upper hand and collected enough. Just throw out some of them and let them fight with each other. They will definitely start fighting among themselves soon. "Li Fan snorted coldly. "There are no unbreakable alliances in this world."
…
Three days later, Tianbao Tower met with various forces on Liuli Island and made the following requests:
Tianbao Tower agreed to hand over part of the Xinghai Quicksand, but it required the other party to provide materials of equal value in exchange.
At the same time, it is up to each family to decide how to divide the Xinghai Quicksand.
Finally, one must secure a spot in the Pure Body Spirit Pool in Tianbao Tower.
The conditions were not very harsh, so after discussing for a while, the two parties quickly reached a settlement.
After all, there is no deep hatred between the two sides, they are just competing for the quota of the pure body spirit pool.
Therefore, Tianbao Tower successfully escaped from this chaotic whirlpool after paying the price of dozens of meteorite irons.
Almost on the same day, the rumors about smuggling on the island disappeared without a trace.
The other forces also started fighting openly and secretly for the dozens of pieces of meteorite iron, and they no longer had time to worry about Tianbao Tower.
Time flies, and the day when the Pure Body Spirit Pond will be opened is coming soon.
After counting the supplies submitted by each family, the quota for the Pure Body Spirit Pond was finally determined.
There are a total of thirteen places to enter the pool this time, and Tianbao Tower has one of them.
The matter was finally settled, and Li Fan couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
As long as the spiritual pool is opened, Li Fan will be able to get rid of the miasma and officially embark on the path of cultivating immortality!
He has been waiting for this day for too long.
Therefore, even Li Fan's city became a little excited.
Name: Li Fan
Realm: Mortal
Biological age: 42/99
Mental age: 505/1299↑
Void recharging progress: 121%
Anchor recharging progress: 51%
Current number of anchor points: 1
Binding items: "Thousands of Machines Jade World Golden Medal", Taiyan Zhou, Zhizhi Broken Monument (damaged)
Li Fan looked at the panel of [Huan Zhen]. After two years of transformation, his biological age had reached the limit of 99 years old, and there was no sign of further growth.
The upper limit of his mental age is still slowly increasing because he practices the "Xuanhuang Qingxin Mantra" day and night.
I wonder what changes will happen after being baptized in the spiritual pool?
Li Fan was looking forward to it.
The day when the spiritual pool was opened finally came. On this day, Li Fan took the Lichen Pill given to him by Yin Yuzhen, and under the guidance of a dedicated person, entered the magic circle in the center of Liuli Island.
