74: Chapter 74 Discussion

He couldn't escape, and fighting was even more impossible; with Boss Hong and his people each holding a Fireball Talisman, Ye Mo would be either dead or severely injured if he tried.

The only thing he could do now was to use the Medicinal Pill as a threat.

And just as Ye Mo expected, the moment he brought out the Medicinal Pill, Boss Hong and Zeng Shi almost simultaneously shouted for their subordinates to stop.

Seeing the Medicinal Pill in Ye Mo's hand, Boss Hong's eyes widened instantly, as if his eyeballs were about to pop out.

He never expected that Ye Mo actually hadn't consumed the Medicinal Pill.

Ever since it was confirmed that Zhang Wentao had most likely been killed, even Scarface Liu didn't dare to hope that the violent spirit pill still existed.

The reason he sent people to search was merely to vent his inner resentment.

"Ye Mo, hurry up and give me the Medicinal Pill!" Boss Hong said with a look of pleasant surprise. At this moment, he found Ye Mo much more pleasing to the eye than before.

"Are you dreaming? If I give it to you, can I still survive?"

Ye Mo sneered and continued, "Seeing you so nervous, I'm actually a bit curious now. What exactly is the use of this violent spirit pill?"

Before Boss Hong could reply.

Boss Xiao, who was on the side, spoke up: "It really is a violent spirit pill. No wonder Scarface Liu was searching everywhere for Zhang Wentao."

"Is the violent spirit pill very strong?" Ye Mo roughly knew the effect of this Medicinal Pill, but he wasn't entirely sure.

"The violent spirit pill can only be taken within the Qi Refining Realm, and it can only be taken once. A single pill can allow a Cultivator at the Early Stage of Qi Refining to break through to the Qi Refining Late-Stage. If taken by someone at the Qi Refining Late-Stage, it can directly lead to Qi Refining Completion."

The violent spirit pill is extremely precious. Not to mention this Mining Site, it is very rare even in the outside world.

"That's not right. If that's all it does, Scarface Liu shouldn't value this Medicinal Pill so highly, right?"

Ye Mo asked, puzzled.

This was also what he couldn't figure out at first. If it only increased cultivation, it shouldn't be of much use to Scarface Liu.

Surely Scarface Liu hasn't reached Qi Refining Completion yet, right?

"Wrong. Strictly speaking, Scarface Liu is a Body Cultivator. He reached the Peak of Body Refining Level 1 a long time ago. As for his cultivation Realm, he only broke through to the Qi Refining Late-Stage two years ago. Once he takes the violent spirit pill, then in the entire Mining Site, no one will be his match!"

The more Boss Xiao spoke, the more alarmed he became. If Scarface Liu obtained the violent spirit pill, he would undoubtedly become the number one person in the Fifth Mine.

"So that's how it is." Ye Mo nodded slightly.

"Ye Mo, since you already know, you had better obediently hand over the violent spirit pill to me now. Otherwise, not only you, but also Boss Xiao—none of you here will survive!"

Boss Hong threatened.

His words were not an exaggeration. If Ye Mo didn't hand over the violent spirit pill, given Scarface Liu's personality, he would definitely kill everyone here.

Hearing this, Boss Xiao and the others' expressions immediately turned ugly. They did not doubt Boss Hong's words.

Many people looked at Ye Mo one after another. If it weren't for the fear that Ye Mo might swallow the Medicinal Pill, they might have tied Ye Mo up and handed him over to Boss Hong themselves.

"If I give it to you, will I be able to survive?"

Knowing that the Medicinal Pill was very important to Scarface Liu, Ye Mo was actually less worried.

"If you give it to me, not only will you survive, but I can guarantee that the boss will even reward you. It's not impossible for you to become the boss of this Mining Site."

Boss Hong said immediately.

"What can you use to guarantee that?"

Ye Mo naturally didn't believe Boss Hong's words, and Ye Mo couldn't afford to gamble.

Without the violent spirit pill, he would be nothing in Scarface Liu's eyes. Why would Scarface Liu think highly of him?

"Then how do you want me to guarantee it?"

Boss Hong asked coldly.

This matter could be said to be unsolvable. Ye Mo didn't trust him, and Boss Hong truly had no way to provide a guarantee.

"Allow us a moment to discuss this, and I will give you an answer in a while."

Ye Mo glanced at Boss Xiao and asked him to set up a soundproofing Formation.

Then he called Bi He, Yi Shi, Gu Jian, and Xiao Wu over.

"Fine, I'll give you the time it takes for an incense stick to burn. Ye Mo, I can clearly tell you that after that time, regardless of whether you hand over the Medicinal Pill or not, you will definitely die."

Boss Hong threatened again.

Then he gave an order to his subordinate, telling him to head to the main camp and call Scarface Liu over.

Inside the Formation, Boss Xiao and the others were frowning.

Today felt like a roller coaster, full of twists and turns.

What they were worried about now was that even if Ye Mo handed over the violent spirit pill, Scarface Liu would still attack them.

"Boss Xiao, after taking this violent spirit pill, how long does it take to have a Breakthrough?"

Ye Mo naturally wouldn't hand the violent spirit pill over to Scarface Liu, but whether he handed it over or not, Scarface Liu wouldn't let him go.

The only way was to take it himself. If he broke through to the Qi Refining Late-Stage, combined with his current double amplification, Ye Mo's spiritual power value would be at least 120, which is twice that of Qi Refining Completion.

At that point, killing Scarface Liu wouldn't be a difficult task.

But the problem was, Ye Mo needed sufficient time to have a Breakthrough.

"I'm not sure about that, but it should take at least one full cycle... However, Ye Mo, even if you break through to the Qi Refining Late-Stage, I'm afraid none of us are a match for Scarface Liu."

Boss Xiao habitually frowned.

He could see that Ye Mo wanted to fight to the end, but this time he didn't have any confidence.

Not to mention that Scarface Liu himself was very powerful, but he also had five or six subordinates at the Qi Refining Late-Stage, and over a hundred at the Qi Refining Mid-Stage.

It was simply impossible to fight against that.

"One full cycle... everyone, you should also know that given Scarface Liu's personality, even if I hand over the violent spirit pill, I'm afraid he won't let us go. Our only way out is to fight him."

Ye Mo looked at the group and said solemnly.

One full cycle, which meant one complete circulation route, would take about an hour or two.

Ye Mo fell into deep thought, wondering how he could buy such a long amount of time.

"How can we fight?"

Bi He and the others naturally understood, but they were truly somewhat fearful of Scarface Liu, so for a moment, they didn't dare to express their stance.

Even Boss Xiao fell into silence.

After a long while, it was Yi Shi who spoke up: "Boss Xiao, I think we can take a gamble. If Ye Mo is gone, I'm afraid we won't be able to hold this Mining Site. Even if Scarface Liu doesn't cause us trouble, Guan Huai and his people definitely won't let us go."

"That's right, Brother. If it weren't for Ye Mo, we would have been wiped out by Boss Guo long ago. Everything we have now can be considered a bonus. Even if we die at the hands of Scarface Liu this time, it's not a loss!"

Xiao Wu also said.

Finally, Bi He and Gu Jian both nodded.

"Ye Mo, Boss Hong and his people are following us everywhere right now, so you won't have the opportunity to break through, right?"

Boss Xiao knew that he had run out of options. What he was worried about now was that even if Ye Mo wanted to break through, he wouldn't be able to do so.

"Let's take advantage of the time before Scarface Liu arrives to first beat back Boss Hong and his men, then head to the Baibao Pavilion and find an excuse to stay inside the Baibao Pavilion. No matter how strong Scarface Liu is, he shouldn't dare to attack the Baibao Pavilion, right?"

The Baibao Pavilion was the largest comprehensive shop in the Fifth Mine.

It sold all kinds of cultivation resources.

Ye Mo could take the opportunity to repair Wu Yuan's silver bow.
