Chapter 1709: Chapter 627: In the Depths of the Oblivion Sea, Ancient Cultivator’s Ruins_3
Ding Yi’s expression instantly turned grim.
He realized that this so-called Demon Monarch Qingyang didn’t possess any of the domineering qualities of a powerful figure of the Path of Demon. Instead, his actions were meticulously cautious.
There was none of the arrogance he displayed during the battle at Coldlight Island, where he stood alone against several cultivators of the same realm.
In truth, Luo Chen had indeed calculated thoroughly.
So what if it was the Nascent Soul Opportunity?
He had already comprehended the Nascent Soul Formation Technique and possessed the Nascent Soul Pill Prescription. As long as he refined the Nascent Soul Formation Pill, the primary requirement wasn’t an opportunity to form a Nascent Soul, but merely access to a Fourth Order Spirit Land.
Given such circumstances, why take unnecessary risks?
Was it truly worth it just for potentially unknown treasures?
Luo Chen had always lived cautiously. Even during his Qi Refinement Stage, when he was close to the Ghost God Valley’s Supreme Elder Ruins, or during his Foundation Establishment Stage, when he inadvertently entered the Divine Transformation Cave Mansion, he hadn’t actively explored them.
It was precisely due to this cautious personality that he had made steady progress to where he was today.
He refused to partake in anything he wasn’t confident about!
Upon seeing Ding Yi’s displeased expression, Luo Chen said reassuringly, "In a gathering as vast as the Ten Thousand Immortals Assembly, there are many beings stronger than me. Friend, why insist on me? In my view, that Moyun Cave Lord, equipped with various magic items, seems quite formidable."
"After all, he is one of your peers!"
"Uh... others could work as well. Guiling Tongzi, who is already nearing the end of his life, would surely seize such an opportunity if he knew about it. Fishing Elder isn’t bad either; he’s the leader among the Three Great Eight-Star Demon Hunters and possesses skills that surpass mine. There’s also Longyuan Deputy City Master, Huo Fang..."
"Guiling Tongzi is nothing but a pile of decrepit bones, unworthy of serious consideration. Fishing Elder is under the Blood Independent Cultivator’s influence. Even without my invitation, he’ll likely set out for Oblivion Sea on his own. And Huo Fang? A member of a Sect—Ding Yi wouldn’t trust him either!"
Every name Luo Chen mentioned was swiftly rejected by Ding Yi.
As the rejections continued, Luo Chen gradually picked up on something.
It wasn’t that these individuals were unqualified; it was that they were difficult to control.
Comparatively, Luo Chen, whose combat strength was sufficient but realm relatively weaker, wouldn’t challenge Ding Yi’s authority.
Was that Ding Yi’s true intention? In such a vast gathering as the Ten Thousand Immortals Assembly, it seemed Luo Chen indeed fit Ding Yi’s criteria for an ideal companion.
Upon further thought, even the Moyun Cave Lord seemed to meet these conditions.
He possessed numerous magic items and extraordinary methods, but with his mere Golden Core Seventh Level cultivation, he wouldn’t pose a threat to Ding Yi’s authority.
Thinking about this, Luo Chen’s face darkened as well.
Even back when he was influenced by his Heart Demon and acted against the Flame Alliance, Luo Chen had always maintained a central position, holding dominion over the proceedings.
The greater the risk, the more essential it was to hold the reins of authority; otherwise, one could perish without understanding how.
Just as Luo Chen was preparing to see Ding Yi off,
four words suddenly echoed near his ears.
"Five Elements Lotus Platform!"
"Hmm?" Luo Chen’s eyes sparkled instantly, locking onto Ding Yi with intense focus.
The latter chuckled darkly and said, "From what I’ve heard, you’ve been searching for information about the Five Elements Lotus Platform in recent years. Have you had any luck?"
Luo Chen remained silent, continuing to stare at him.
Ding Yi shrugged and said, "I won’t hide it from you. That ancient cultivator’s ruin includes a few Five Elements Lotus Platforms, and there are quite a few of them. I don’t know why you need these, but I do know they are used by Nascent Soul True Masters for cultivation. The trade of these items only occurs among Nascent Soul True Masters. If you think you can obtain Five Elements Lotus Platforms from lower-tier rogue cultivators, you’ll likely waste a lifetime without acquiring more than two. But if you follow me to that place, any Five Elements Lotus Platforms we encounter will be yours."
Having said that, Ding Yi winked at him.
"Qingyang Zi, won’t you consider this?"
This time, Luo Chen fell into a long silence.
Silence indicated hesitation, and hesitation hinted at a wavering heart.
A smile returned to Ding Yi’s face. He plucked a willow branch and lazily swung it about.
"I’ll be over at Mount Moyun preparing magic items. If you’ve made up your mind, come find me!"
"But I must warn you in advance: the timing for that secret realm’s opening is unpredictable, so you must decide soon."
"Additionally, Oblivion Sea itself is perilous. Crossing it will require suitable treasures."
"Figure it out quickly. I’ll teach you the techniques for refining magic items to ensure you don’t become a burden later on."
His voice grew slower and longer as he spoke.
Luo Chen watched the rotund figure gradually disappear from view, flying farther and farther away in the sky above Peng Island.
By the lakeside, Luo Chen stood silently for a long time.
It wasn’t until Tian Xuan approached him quietly.
"Master, the Black King has returned."
