Chapter 622: Chapter 520: Hostility

"Hmm? The Star Sky List has changed again?"

In a resting area, several Dharma Masters looked up at the vast and majestic Star Sky List.

The changes on the Star Sky List this time were not as grand as before, but those who pay attention can still notice them.

"Xiao... has surged into the top ten thousand."

A Dharma Master whose hair seemed to be burning intensely put down his wine cup: "One Xiao, one Fang Xing... these two outsider Dharma Masters are much stronger than the new Dharma Masters cultivated by our Star Sky Civilization."

"Hmph, I don’t know how long that Fang Xing has been a Dharma Master, but his previous breakthrough in the Deep Sea Civilization was clearly a disguise, a fishing expedition..."

Another green-haired woman snorted coldly: "However... Xiao’s breakthrough was recent, his talent is indeed exceptional, just a bit temperamental, unlike Fang Xing in that regard..."

"What good is a good temperament? Fundamental interests cannot be reconciled... those outsider Dharma Masters are eroding our resources."

The Dharma Master with burning hair was quite displeased: "If it weren’t for the military pressure from the Exotic Beast Civilization and the Insect Civilization, we wouldn’t need to be so aggressive and could focus solely on cultivating the true members of the Star Sky Civilization..."

"Enough."

A calm voice came, stopping the argument between the two Dharma Masters.

The speaker was a handsome young man, with a sapphire embedded in his forehead.

The sapphire seemed to be divided into countless facets, each reflecting strange light, giving a sense of spatial distortion.

"Brother..."

The two Dharma Masters appeared very respectful.

"What Second Brother said just now wasn’t wrong... compared to Xiao, that Fang Xing is a greater threat to us."

The man with the sapphire on his forehead chuckled lightly: "Moreover, Fang Xing joined the Star Sky Civilization through the introduction of the Sikai family..."

The Dharma Master with burning hair remained silent; they all knew, their brother had a grudge against the Sikai family!

Now, new grievances against old enemies, hatred begets hatred, was only natural.

"I heard from Kun Wu that Fang Xing is seeking to buy Destruction Demon Liquid and the Mad Martial Bird’s Feather?"

The young man with the sapphire embedded in his forehead chuckled lightly: "I happen to have one Mad Martial Bird’s Feather on hand..."

"Brother’s intention is... to ruthlessly extort Fang Xing?" The green-haired woman laughed.

"No matter how much is gained, giving cultivation resources to an enemy is very foolish..."

The young man with the sapphire on his forehead smiled: "But we can toy with him a bit, even trap him as long as it’s all within the rules. Do you think the above favors us or an outsider? We won’t take his life, just delay his cultivation... it’s also for his own good, considering the overarching policy above."

"Brother means... a private transaction?"

The Dharma Master with burning hair’s eyes lit up: "It’s possible... and that Xiao, haha... I can’t wait to see the look of despair on his face..."

Fang Xing did not know that even if he withheld some, the strength he revealed still appeared somewhat eye-catching.

...

"Oh? Is there a result?"

On the newly constructed Blue Star, Fang Xing sat on the majestic throne of the palace, looking at the Void Stone in his hand, a trace of joy appeared on his face.

"It’s ’Inquis,’ he’s revealed to me that he has a Mad Martial Bird’s Feather, and he is willing to sell it..."

Kun Wu’s reply came quickly: "But... he and his group are not well-renowned among outsiders; you’ll have to judge for yourself."

After a subtle reminder, Kun Wu provided Inquis’ contact information and then directly hung up the communication.

"Oh?"

Fang Xing entered the Void Universe briefly to check and found plenty of information about Inquis, a native talent Dharma Master of the Star Sky Civilization who broke through using the Space Law.

Currently, he has Fourth Rank Dharma Master strength, ranked 459 on the Star Sky List.

"This ranking suggests his strength in the Fourth Rank Dharma Master level is just average, otherwise he could have entered the top hundred, or even the top ten..."

Fang Xing pondered for a moment and directly dialed the communication.

...

Void Universe.

Inside a meeting room.

Fang Xing’s figure appeared and he saw a young man with a blue gemstone embedded in his forehead.

The gemstone on the opponent’s forehead seemed capable of infinite facet division, giving a sense of spatial bewilderment.

’Indeed, a Dharma Master achieved through the Space Law...’

Fang Xing mused inwardly and then spoke: "Inquis... I heard you have a Mad Martial Bird’s Feather you want to sell?"

"Yes, but what can you offer to impress me?"

Inquis spun a silver short arrow in his hand, smilingly speaking.

"How about this treasure?"

Fang Xing raised his hand and projected the image and data of the Yuanzhong Temple.

Although this treasure was still with Li Ying, he could take possession of it anytime he wanted.

Moreover, according to Star Sky Civilization’s laws, the treasures in the hands of his subjects are his.

"Yuanzhong Temple?"

Inquis smiled and shook his head: "Not enough... simply not enough."

Fang Xing’s face suddenly turned grim: "This is already the most valuable item I own..."

"Most valuable? Not quite, you also have a ’Blood Essence Mountain,’ don’t you?" Inquis jokingly said.

"I still need the Blood Essence Mountain, and its value is much higher than Yuanzhong Temple." Fang Xing appeared rather unwilling, but in the end, still made a concession: "Fine, I can exchange..."

"Still not enough." Quis said, "Blood Essence Mountain is quite good, but now it’s a seller’s market, so I need you to make up the price difference... hmm, one hundred squares of Source Liquid!"

"You’re robbing me!"

Fang Xing looked particularly angry.

"No, no, no, robbery doesn’t make money that fast," Quis chuckled, "You are an ascetic, compared to external objects, naturally, enhancing your own strength is more important, isn’t it?"

"Deal..." Fang Xing gave Quis a deep glance, the anger on his face instantly vanished, replaced with a slightly sarcastic smile, "But I need to apply for Void Universe notarization for this transaction, and also require a guarantor as a middleman."

"What did you say?"

Quis’s expression changed.

He was planning for a private transaction to take advantage of Fang Xing, without really intending to hand over the ’Feather of the Crazy Martial Bird.’

But if it’s notarized, and there’s a middleman, it won’t be easy to go through with this.

Even though the Star Sky Civilization’s big policy is to squeeze outsiders as much as possible, this is a hidden rule that can’t be spoken openly.

Once everything is laid out, Quis knows the official would certainly not blatantly protect him.

"Sure enough... you have no intention to trade."

Fang Xing’s projection shook its head, unwilling to say more, disappearing instantly.

"Big brother..."

The second brother with burning hair entered from outside the conference room, "Did the negotiations fall apart?!"

"He never trusted me from the beginning."

Quis nodded gloomily, "I even felt that he never truly trusted the Star Sky Civilization..."

If he truly wanted to integrate into the Star Sky Civilization, he would naturally favor local experts or feel inferior, then humble himself, being in a disadvantage during interactions, having to accept some unfavorable terms.

And then he would be taken advantage of, facing deceit and deception!

But Fang Xing was different!

He never intended to fully integrate, always wary of these people.

A slight test revealed the transaction was impossible to succeed; unwilling to waste time, he simply left.

"We were still too careless... If we openly accepted him, played along for several years or decades, perhaps the success rate would be higher."

The green-haired woman also entered with a sigh.

"In our cultivation, we follow our own intentions, where is there so much effort to spend acting for others?"

The red-haired second brother first refuted.

Having achieved the Dharma Master realm through the Fire Law, his personality was similarly influenced, lacking patience for this.

"In any case, Fang Xing’s attitude towards us will certainly change, be cautious in the future..."

Quis still didn’t take it seriously since he was already a Fourth Rank Dharma Master.

In the Blood Prison Civilization, only the strongest Blood Prison Divine Emperor could compare to him.

As for Fang Xing?

He was previously scared by the Blood Prison Divine Emperor like a lost dog, seeking Star Sky Civilization for shelter.

How could he possibly be fearful now?

"Let’s set Fang Xing aside and try that ’Owl’... hehe, the more coldly he acts, the more it proves he’s... afraid."

Quis analyzed, "Our chances of success with him are greater..."

...

Blue Star.

"Truly... because I am an outsider, many Dharma Masters still view me unfavorably and wish to exploit me."

Actually, this is not too bad; the real pitfall lies in tampering with missions.

When the time comes, be it framing or using him as cannon fodder, Fang Xing would certainly not endure, but really making a move would still be inferior.

After all, Star Sky Civilization holds in its ranks Dao Lords of the Fourteenth Realm and even eternal Dao Venerates of the Fifteenth Realm!

"This time buying the Feather of the Crazy Martial Bird failed... perhaps Quis will sabotage it secretly, making it more difficult next time."

"Fortunately, I don’t have only this one channel..."

Fang Xing shook his head.

Only at this moment does one understand the importance of having options.

Although there isn’t a greater force than the Star Sky Civilization within the Human Clan’s territory in the Da Xia Universe.

But in the True Immortal Realm, there might still exist creatures similar to the ’Crazy Martial Bird!’

Hence, such matters can be handled by a Cultivation Avatar.

With this option, he can advance aggressively or retreat defensively... navigating with much more ease.

...

True Immortal Realm.

"The True Immortal Realm is vast, governed by the Dao Court, and divided into thirty-six Immortal Domains... that’s at least thirty-six Dao Lords of the Fourteenth Realm..."

Fang Xing’s Cultivation Avatar still retained the image of a handsome youth, hair tied up, holding a jade stick, carefully reading something.

"Where I am, is the ’Carefree Immortal Domain,’ overseen by ’Carefree Dao Lord’... it encompasses ten thousand Immortal Cities, countless True Immortal Realm experts..."

"Indeed, the gap from the Thirteenth Realm to the Fourteenth Realm is a natural barrier..."

Finished studying the ’Geography of the Carefree Immortal Domain,’ Fang Xing flew out of the Cave Mansion, suddenly performed a gesture, and a white paper crane landed, transforming into a white-feathered child with bright lips, a crisp voice saying, "Fang True Immortal, Fairy Bixia and True Immortal Luo Yun invite you to the ’Drunken Moon Pavilion’ for a chat..."
