Chapter 906: Being Polite to Others
What the old blind man said was exactly what Wu Zhongyuan was thinking. He did not expect that there would be so many people here.
What the old blind man said before is true. The shape of the Mountain of No Return is indeed very strange. It looks a bit like the pyramids of later generations. The mountain is steep and covered with thick ice and snow. There are two groups of people gathered in the shelter at the foot of the mountain. The two groups are respectively They were in different locations and were obviously not in the same group. The group on the south side of the mountain had about twenty people, while the group on the east side of the mountain had forty or fifty people.
The cave where Nine Thousand Years Old lives is located on the mountainside. There are several people standing on the stone platform outside the cave. Due to the cold wind and snow, which blocks the view, the appearance of those people cannot be seen clearly.
Not wanting to reveal his whereabouts prematurely, Wu Zhongyuan took the old blind man down to a lower altitude and walked around the valley to get closer. Five miles away, Wu Zhongyuan stopped. From here, he could clearly see No Return Regarding the situation of the mountain, most of the group of people on the south side of the mountain are young women wrapped in mink fur and fox coats. There are also young women among the group of people on the east side of the mountain, but most of them are men. They have built shelters from the wind. It was a simple shack, and everyone was busy around the shack. It looked like they were cooking.
There were five people standing outside the Nine Thousand Years Cave. Judging from their positions, these five people were not in the same group.
"Your Majesty, where do these people come from?" the old blind man asked in a low voice.
Wu Zhongyuan said in a deep voice, "The women on the south side of the mountain are all aliens, and they must be from the beast race. The group of people on the east side of the mountain must be from the god race, and they can be sensed through their breath."
"We're afraid we're too late." The old blind man was worried.
"It's okay, it's not too late. They obviously didn't achieve their goal," Wu Zhongyuan shook his head and said, "The five people standing outside the cave where Jiu Qian was located were all cultivated in the Three Void Realm, two of them had alien auras, and the remaining three were It's from the God Clan. Judging from their expressions and demeanor, there should be more than just Nine Thousand Years Old in the cave, and there are probably also their people."
"Who could be in the cave?" the old blind man asked.
Wu Zhongyuan did not answer. Instead, he concentrated hard and tried to sense. After a moment, he said, "There are also five people in the cave. The one who is too spiritual has a strong earthy aura. He should be the nine thousand years old you said. The other one is There are two people who are both high-level cultivators. They are not the same group. They should belong to the God Clan and the Beast Clan respectively."
Wu Zhongyuan paused for a moment before continuing, "There are still two people who I can't sense their specific cultivation. I can only tell that they are a man and a woman. I can't sense their aura cultivation itself." There is a problem. If my guess is correct, they should be the God King and the Beast King themselves, but they have changed their appearance and concealed their cultivation."
Hearing Wu Zhongyuan's words, the old blind man frowned.
"Is it possible that the Beast King has also recovered his cultivation?"
Wu Zhongyuan nodded slowly. He didn't know how the Beast King recovered his spiritual energy in such a short period of time, but not being able to sense the other party's spiritual energy meant that the other party's spiritual energy was higher than his.
While the two were chatting in low voices, an orc alien standing outside the cave floated down to the south side of the mountain and said something to the people waiting there.
In fact, he was not completely sure that these aliens who transformed into humans came from the Orcs, but now that the Demons had surrendered, and the Demons were far away from the Western Region, this group of aliens could only come from the Orcs.
After the orc alien had a brief conversation with everyone on his side, three graceful and beautiful women followed him to the cave where Nine Thousand Years Old was. The three beautiful women all had spiritual energy cultivation, and they all carried guqin and other instruments with them. musical instruments.
After the orcs sent people up, there was also a person on the east side of the mountain who raised his energy and came to the mountainside. He handed the food box in his hand to his people waiting outside the cave.
"They indulged Nine Thousand Years Old in dancing, music, wine and food, just to get clues about the Pangu Spirit Pearl." said the old blind man.
Wu Zhongyuan did not answer. He did not answer because he did not agree with what the old blind man said, but because he was thinking about other things. Judging from the positions of the Orcs and Gods, they were fighting independently and did not join forces.
"Sir, what do you think of this matter?" Wu Zhongyuan asked.
The old blind man closed his eyes and pondered, and after a moment he slowly said, "Any bribery will undermine the majesty. Both of them are kings of the same clan. If what they are asking for is not extremely important, they will never do this. But any bribery They are all doing it in secret. Such open comparison will not only make enemies and enemies, but also seriously damage their respective reputations. In my humble opinion, the three-level spiritual beads will not make them do this. It is the Three Yuan. The high-grade spirit beads don’t seem to be enough.”
"I think so too." Wu Zhongyuan nodded slowly. As the saying goes, people need face and trees need bark. The more people in high positions value face, the more the gods value face. The Gods are famous for their arrogance, which can make them ignore dignity and politeness. Things that are inferior to humans must be of great weight.
In addition, the big taboo in giving gifts is to openly compete with other gift givers, which will directly lead to a deadly feud between the two parties.
"However, Nine Thousand Years Old has never mentioned that there is an existence beyond the yellow and white spirit beads." The old blind man said.
"If it hasn't been mentioned before, it doesn't mean it hasn't," Wu Zhongyuan said. "There is also another possibility. The Pangu Lingzhu is different from the Qi-boosting elixir, and its effects can be superimposed."
The old blind man nodded and agreed.
"You once said that Nine Thousand Years Old has a wild and arrogant temperament," Wu Zhongyuan said. "Other than that, what kind of temper does it have?"
The old blind man didn't understand what Wu Zhongyuan meant, so he hesitated and didn't answer.
Seeing him like this, Wu Zhongyuan asked in a relatively specific manner, "Does the nine thousand-year-old have a scheming mind? Is it easy to deceive? Is it possible that he could impulsively tell them all about the Pangu Lingzhu?"
"It is indeed possible," the old blind man said seriously. "Although it is arrogant and unruly, it is not insidious and cunning. It also honors its promises and likes reciprocal exchanges. It will not give others benefits or take advantage of others in vain. .”
After the old blind man finished speaking, Wu Zhongyuan sighed. At present, the gods and beasts have already taken the lead and are competing for the Pangu Spiritual Pearl. There are two reasons why they are competing for it. One is that the Pangu Spiritual Pearl is extremely important to them. It is already related to the ethnic group they belong to, and secondly, they all know that Jiu Qiansui will not sit on the ground and raise prices, and they may get the clues they want.
After roughly analyzing and judging the situation, Wu Zhongyuan began to worry. Should he hide in the dark and wait for the changes, or should he show up immediately and join the fight?
The old blind man guessed what Wu Zhongyuan was thinking and did not urge him. Anyone else would hesitate to do this, because it not only affects his face, but may also affect the entire battle situation.
Just when Wu Zhongyuan was thinking anxiously and hesitating, the sound of music came from the cave.
Seeing that Wu Zhongyuan was still undecided, the old blind man suggested in a low voice, "Your Majesty, now that the gods and beasts have taken the lead, time is running out, so why not show up and act according to the opportunity?"
Wu Zhongyuan did not answer the call.
After waiting for a while, there was still no response from Wu Zhongyuan. The old blind man could not help but urge again, "Your Majesty, when there are three pillars of confrontation, the strongest party is not necessarily the winner. Who is the winner depends on who the weakest party chooses to help."
Wu Zhongyuan understood what the old blind man meant, but he didn't want to do it. He still couldn't get over the hurdle in his heart. Giving gifts to monsters would feel so awkward. And he has no intention of forming an alliance with any party, even temporarily.
After pondering for a long time, Wu Zhongyuan suddenly tilted his head and looked at the old blind man, "I'll go over there, you wait for me here."
Hearing this, the old blind man hurriedly waved his hands and said, "That's not right, that's not right. Your Majesty is a body of gold and a man of light. This matter is unfair. It would be more appropriate for a humble minister to come forward. Your Majesty can change like the God King and the Beast King." Body shape, watching the plundering formation."
"Since the King of Gods and the King of Beasts are fighting for the Pangu Spiritual Bead at all costs, it shows that they both know the beauty of the Pangu Spiritual Bead," Wu Zhongyuan said, "For the same thing, people who understand it more deeply can use it more effectively. We know little about the Pangu Spiritual Pearl’s maximum power, and even if we go through all the trouble to obtain it, we still cannot exert its maximum effectiveness.”
"What do you mean?" The old blind man was confused.
"I'm going to kill this nine-thousand-year-old man and let the Pangu Spiritual Pearl sink into the sea forever. No one can get it..."
