Miracle Farmer with Special Abilities-Chapter 787 - 0: Insane Boost in Strength_1
The Old Ancestor of Mount Lao and Zhang Bin began their negotiations, with Master Tianlong and the Personage of Heavenly Mirror also participating. The negotiations were tough, as Zhang Bin refused to budge an inch.
In the end, the Old Ancestor of Mount Lao conceded. He agreed to give White Bone Peak to the Daoyi Sect and hand over all the treasures from Changsun Can and Changsun Hongxuan. Only then did Zhang Bin relent, agreeing not to cripple the cultivation of the three elders. However, he demanded they be imprisoned for ten years, after which they would be released.
Moreover, Zhang Bin had the Old Ancestor of Mount Lao write a guarantee, pledging to abide by national laws and the rules of the Daoyi Sect going forward. Otherwise, the Daoyi Sect would unite with all the sects in China to launch a punitive expedition against them.
With three powerful elders imprisoned, the Laoshan Sect's strength was greatly diminished. A single expert on par with the Old Ancestor of Mount Lao could now annihilate their entire sect with ease. The Old Ancestor of Mount Lao was still somewhat fearful.
When the negotiations ended, the Old Ancestor of Mount Lao left with great reluctance. Zhang Bin, don't celebrate too soon, he sneered inwardly. In ten years, when you release my three elders, that will be the day you die.
This was no idle boast. He had the ability to make it happen. He could dispatch any one of the three elders to assassinate Zhang Bin. Once Zhang Bin left the City of Gold, they could easily kill him. If the three elders failed, he would take action himself. Could he possibly fail to kill Zhang Bin?
A victorious smile appeared on Zhang Bin's face. Ten years is a good deal, he thought. I reached the mid-phase Seed Condensing Realm in just over a year. How powerful will I be in ten years? By then, the Laoshan Sect won't be able to bully me, and my Taiqing Sect will have grown much stronger.
Seeing a massive war averted and the Laoshan Sect left helpless—with Changsun Hongxuan and Changsun Can of the Changsun Clan dead for nothing and three of their elders captured by Zhang Bin for ten years' imprisonment—Master Tianlong, the Personage of Heavenly Mirror, Zhou Tianyu, and Zhang Hangkui all heaved a collective sigh of relief. They took their leave one after another.
Before leaving, Zhang Hangkui put on a stern face. "Zhang Bin, you bastard, what kind of love potion did you give my granddaughter?"
Heh heh... Zhang Xue is already my woman; the deed is done. Of course she's devoted to me, Zhang Bin sneered inwardly, but he said aloud, "You wouldn't understand. This is true love."
"You... Shameless!" Zhang Hangkui was so furious he felt his lungs might explode. True love? Zhang Bin had simply seduced Zhang Xue in one night! He knew for a fact that Zhang Xue used to look down on Zhang Bin.
"Old man, I should remind you," Zhang Bin added, "you're getting on in years. Don't let that beautiful disciple of yours lead you astray..."
"Bullshit!" Zhang Hangkui bellowed, spinning around and flying off in a rage.
"We won!" all the disciples of the Taiqing Sect cheered excitedly.
Zhang Bin, however, was not as celebratory. He immediately established some new regulations. First, everyone was to reside within the City of Gold, which would remain sealed for the time being. Anyone needing to go out had to use the Teleportation Array. This would prevent enemies from infiltrating, as only those recognized by the array could use it. It was a simple precaution, just in case.
No one felt inconvenienced by this. The space inside the City of Gold was simply too vast and beautiful. Living there felt like freedom, not confinement.
Even after settling this, Zhang Bin felt it wasn't enough. The Taiqing Sect was still too weak. They didn't have a single Nascent Soul Realm cultivator, which was a critical vulnerability that had to be addressed quickly. Without hesitation, he took Li Taiqing, the seven enchantresses, and Chiang Xue, and teleported to the French vineyard.
He gathered all nine of them into his Dragon Pool before entering the Dragon Palace once more. He spoke gravely, "Dragon Vein Elder, I've encountered incredibly powerful enemies who want to seize my wealth. If I don't rapidly increase my own strength and my sect's power, this place will be overrun. They'll madly mine the Spirit Stones, and your body will be completely exploited. Even your Dragon Heart might not be safe."
"My Dragon Heart has powerful defenses that your human cultivators cannot break," the Dragon Vein replied unhurriedly. "My body, however, has no such defenses. It would be at their mercy."
"If they mine your entire body, it would cause you great harm," Zhang Bin said. "I've brought several of my subordinates here; they're in my Dragon Pool. I want them to absorb some Dragon Qi to rapidly increase their strength. Don't worry," he added, "I'll exchange top-grade Crystal Stones for the Dragon Qi."
"Bring them out one by one so I may see them," the Dragon Vein said, somewhat reluctantly. "If their souls and bodies are pure, I will grant your request. Otherwise, I'm afraid I cannot."
Clearly, it was also concerned about its own body. After all, since the dawn of the Earth, Zhang Bin was the only cultivator who had ever managed to obtain so many top-grade Crystal Stones.
Overjoyed, Zhang Bin immediately explained the situation to everyone in the Dragon Pool. Then, he brought Li Taiqing out first. He firmly believed that Li Taiqing's body and soul were relatively pure, as he practiced the Three Purities Secret Technique left by Laozi and had reached the peak of the Golden Core Realm Great Perfection.
Most importantly, Zhang Bin hoped that absorbing Dragon Qi would make Li Taiqing's body immensely stronger, hardening his very bones to a degree that was impossible to achieve with the Tyrant Gold Celestial Technique. If Li Taiqing became powerful enough, he might finally meet their Ancestor's requirements and be granted the other half of the Jade Scroll. With the complete inheritance, Li Taiqing and the seven enchantresses could swiftly break through to the Nascent Soul Realm. The Taiqing Sect would instantly gain seven Nascent Soul Realm experts, and its strength would soar.
"His body is quite pure," the Dragon Vein said. "His soul, while not as pure as yours, is far purer than that of an average cultivator. Let him cultivate here this once."
"Quick, cultivate!" Zhang Bin said excitedly.
"Yes, Sect Leader!" Li Taiqing was already breathing in the Dragon Qi frantically, his face filled with ecstasy. This kind of divine treasure probably only exists in the Immortal Realm! What is this place?
He immediately sat cross-legged and began to cultivate fervently. He had already received Zhang Bin's instructions: first cultivate the Three Purities Secret Technique, then the Tyrant Gold Celestial Technique, and finally, the Pure Heart Mystique.
Indeed, Zhang Bin had recently discovered that practicing the Pure Heart Mystique in the Dragon Palace yielded exceptional results. Essentially, it sharpened his senses, allowing him to perceive more of the spiritual impurities within himself. After all, the Dragon Qi was highly sensitive to such impurities, and with its help, expelling them became much easier.
