130: Chapter 130 Heavenly Yuan Coins, Gaining the Void, Returning to Court!
A sudden, thunderous roar erupted from overhead.
Before anyone could react, they saw spiritual light flickering before the dilapidated mountain gate.
Suddenly, dense Evil Qi filled the skies...
Thousands upon thousands of Dao Soldiers appeared before their eyes, packed densely together.
These Dao Soldiers possessed not a shred of vitality.
Their entire bodies were clad in armor resembling emerald jade.
They held long, emerald-green bows!
A terrifying killing intent suddenly emerged...
The Dao Soldier Puppets nocked arrows in unison, then raised their arms high, pointing the arrows toward the sky.
Then... with a boom.
They fired them off in a fierce volley!!!
Shen Yi's expression turned to one of shock... The emerald arrows looked ordinary, perhaps even a bit gaudy.
However, the constant flashing of danger in the Opportunity intelligence... chilled him to the bone!
[Ding! Slaying the Emerald Feather Guard Dao Soldier Puppets rewards you with 300 Second-Rank Dao Soldier class transfer quotas.]
[Return rate: -10%]
[Even Panshi Dao Soldiers cannot withstand the full-power output of 1,500 Emerald Feather Guards.]
[Withdrawing now is your best decision!]
Just as Wang Meng was about to roar and engage in battle, Shen Yi shouted, "Retreat!"
"Huh?"
The dense swarm of arrows converged in the sky, forming a sea of emerald green.
The Rakshasa Dao Soldiers quickly retreated outward...
while the Dao Soldiers who had absorbed the Panshi Blood Essence brought up the rear...
Everything happened so fast, so urgently...
The arrows landed at their feet... Shen Yi had just barely stepped into the area.
He had only poked his head in, witnessing this heart-shaking scene before him!
The arrows transformed into a green sea, raining down to their feet... the earth began to turn emerald green.
It was as if it had transformed into amber.
Dense vines surged up from the soil beneath their feet!
Some vines shot out the thorns on their bodies.
The tips of the thorns were coated in terrifying poison...
The space where they had originally stood was now like a dance of demons!
Then... a flash of clear light swept through.
The spot returned to normal!
The Emerald Feather Guards at the gate of the Zhenwu Immortal Sect vanished at the same time.
The entire world became deathly silent once again!
Shen Yi withdrew his gaze and took a deep breath.
He looked at Steward Zhao and the others, saying in a deep voice, "No one can speak of this matter..."
Hanshan Temple, Wu Yi, Wang Meng, and the others nodded one after another.
They had all heard the sound from earlier... they naturally knew what that place was.
The Zhenwu Immortal Sect, the leader of all Dao Soldiers under heaven.
A blessed land of a supreme holy sect...
This Opportunity, let alone them, would even make the Five Surnames and Seven Great Clans and high-ranking officials of the third rank or above covet it!
Forget about speaking of it; if even a whisper of wind leaked out, they would all die without a burial place!
Shen Yi took a deep breath and looked at Steward Zhao.
His gaze shifted, and he said heavily, "Brother Zhao."
People die for wealth... Steward Zhao was also afraid that Shen Yi would silence him.
His tone wavered slightly. "Brother Shen."
Shen Yi took a step forward.
Steward Zhao took a step back.
Shen Yi's face was full of teasing. "Brother Zhao, why are you so timid?"
Steward Zhao coughed, his face showing not the slightest bit of embarrassment. "What are you talking about!"
Shen Yi shook his head and said, "Brother Zhao, I am willing to share the treasures here with you. Let us develop it together... how about that?"
Upon hearing this, Steward Zhao's expression turned serious. "It seems you are determined to drag me into this, aren't you?"
Shen Yi shook his head. "That sounds a bit harsh. We are already grasshoppers on the same boat, aren't we?"
"That coffin..." Steward Zhao hurriedly waved his hand. "Stop, stop, stop!"
"We will develop it together... but you and I must swear an oath to the Heavenly Dao."
"If either of us implicates the other in these two matters... may our Divine Souls be annihilated, never to be reincarnated!"
"That is only natural..." The two calmed down. Shen Yi frowned and said, "However, this enclave is truly difficult to keep a hold on!"
"Brother Zhao, do you have any plans?"
Steward Zhao's eyes were thoughtful as he said calmly, "How about moving Wanren Cliff back to Qinghe Town?"
Shen Yi's face was full of surprise. "Can it be done?"
Steward Zhao nodded. "Yes... just use a Mountain Opening Warrior!"
"But in the long run, I'm afraid it will arouse suspicion. Especially from the Hu Family, who are targeting us, and the Badao Sword Sect!"
"Furthermore, if we move a barren mountain back, won't it make people even more suspicious?"
"So... we need a smoke screen?"
Shen Yi lowered his eyes, pondered for a moment, and said in a deep voice, "What if... Wanren Cliff continues to produce Stone Demons periodically?"
"We can place the Legacy of Wei Bushe inside... to serve as a distraction and guide."
"A classic trick of hiding in plain sight—what do you think, Steward Zhao?"
Upon hearing this, Steward Zhao's eyes lit up. "Good idea!"
He looked at Shen Yi and grinned. "As expected of the cunning Brother Shen, you can even come up with such a method?"
"Then I shall bury some Yao Beast skeletons inside?"
"And set up a Yao-Gathering Formation... to keep supplying Wanren Cliff with Yao Beasts?"
Shen Yi instantly thought of something, his eyes brightening. "Then, we can charge Spirit Stones as an entrance fee, letting Jianghu wanderers and Immortal Sect Cultivators come to kill the Yao Beasts!"
Steward Zhao nodded, his smile lewd.
Shen Yi continued, "Afterward, we can regularly enter Wanren Cliff, using the excuse that we are purging the Yao Beasts... but in reality, it will be for the Zhenwu Immortal Sect trial!"
"This way, we can hide it from prying eyes?"
"Truly clever!!!"
"Brother Zhao is still the clever one!"
The two hit it off immediately!
Steward Zhao then said, "However... hiring a Mountain Opening Warrior requires 30,000 copper coins."
Shen Yi gasped. "So expensive?"
Steward Zhao glanced at Shen Yi and said calmly, "The Mountain Opening Warrior is a Essence Spirit of a different race that has attained the Dao... If it weren't for the Four Seas Chamber of Commerce's extensive connections, you wouldn't even be able to hire one!"
"Then I will have to trouble you, Steward Zhao!"
"We split it in half."
Steward Zhao's mouth twitched. "Fine!"
"But you cannot secretly participate in the assessment behind my back!"
"What are you saying!"
Seeing this, Steward Zhao nodded... then said, "Since that is the case, let us part ways here."
"I will go to Taiping County to prepare first."
"Troublesome..."
Seeing this, Master Yankong also slowly stepped forward and said in a deep voice, "Since this matter is concluded... this humble monk will also take his Disciples and leave."
Shen Yi saw this and smiled. "Leave?"
"I think, Master, you should return to Qinghe Town with me."
Master Yankong's expression changed. "My Lord... we will certainly keep the secret."
Shen Yi shook his head. "It is not because of that... Master, you have offended the Corpse-Driving Immortal Sect; are you not afraid they will come looking for you?"
"Even if you return to Hanshan Temple, what will your Disciples eat and drink?"
"Although my temple is small, it still has some resources for cultivation!"
"How about this... I will just have the Mountain Opening Warrior move Hanshan Temple over as well. What do you think?"
Master Yankong opened his mouth...
"My Lord."
"It is happily decided then..."
"I am doing this for your own good!"
"Alright... let's go home!"
"Qinghe Town, your King has returned!"
