Chapter 2192 Seeking Cooperation
Chapter 2192 Seeking Cooperation
While Shen Changqing was waiting for news from Guchen Mansion, Shangguan Xinghe also came to Hongshan City.
His purpose of coming here was simple, he wanted to buy talismans from Shen Changqing.
After all, Shen Changqing had been in seclusion for five hundred years, and the Shangguan family had not been able to purchase talismans from him. Now that they heard that he had come out, they came here as soon as possible.
“Since the problems in Jiuzhou, the prices of all strategic resources have soared. For example, the price of the Divine Monarch Talisman has at least doubled.
Not only that, even some materials for refining talismans have seen price increases, and it is extremely difficult to collect them on the market.
My Shangguan family has purchased some divine talismans like this from other powerful people, but the quality is not as good as Brother Hongshan’s!”
Shangguan Xinghe looked at the talisman in his hand, and just by feeling the majestic Taoist rhyme filling it, he could tell that the talisman was of extremely high quality.
The quality of the talisman.
Even if they are of the same grade, the quality is different and the power they exert is also different.
It’s like they are both first-level Divine Lord cultivators, with solid foundation and rich combat experience, so they are naturally much stronger than ordinary first-level Divine Lord cultivators.
The words fell.
Shangguan Xinghe looked at Shen Changqing and couldn’t help asking, “Brother Hongshan, do you really have no intention of joining my Shangguan family? If you are willing to join my Shangguan family, not only will the price of the talisman remain unchanged, but my Shangguan family can also find all the materials for you!”
“I appreciate Elder Shangguan’s kindness, but Hongshan City is doing well now, and I have no plans to join other forces for the time being.”
Shen Changqing shook his head and refused.
To this.
Shangguan Xinghe could only look regretful.
He just mentioned it casually and didn’t think that the other party could really join the Shangguan family.
After all, Shangguan Xinghe has seen the development of Hongshan City over the years.
One million Red Mountain Army.
Even if the Shangguan family wanted to support so many monks, it would not be easy. Hongshan City could support millions of monks with only a few hundred years of accumulation, which shows that the development trend is very fierce.
With the addition of Duan Jing’s breakthrough to the level of Divine Lord, there are now two Divine Lords ruling Hongshan City.
If Hongshan City were to establish a sect, then this sect would be able to become the top sect in Ancient Wilderness.
Although the Shangguan family has a solid foundation, it is not necessarily much stronger than Hongshan City.
Even if the Shangguan family could offer generous treatment, it would not be possible to earn more than Hongshan City.
so.
Upon hearing Shen Changqing’s refusal, Shangguan Xinghe changed the subject.
“Brother Hongshan, have you heard anything about the news from Guchen Mansion?”
“I heard that there were strange phenomena in the ancient dust mansion, which was suspected to be the emergence of the ancient secret realm, but I don’t know the specific information.”
Shen Changqing said calmly.
Shangguan Xinghe nodded: “Yes, there is indeed an ancient secret realm to be revealed in Guchen Mansion, and according to the accurate information obtained by my Shangguan family, the ancient secret realm to be revealed in Guchen Mansion came from the ancient Guchen Divine Emperor.
He was an unparalleled divine emperor. It was rumored that his death was not an accident and that he would have the opportunity to become a top-notch powerful person who attained the status of divine emperor.
Even when my Shangguan family was at its peak, there were no masters of this level left in the world.”
When talking about the Ancient Dust God Emperor, Shangguan Xinghe’s eyes revealed awe.
This is the respect for the top strong ones.
Even if the God Emperor Gu Chen died, he still didn’t dare to show any disrespect to him.
after all.
The other person has reached a height that you may never have the chance to reach in your entire life.
Shen Changqing said: “The Shangguan family has any ideas about the inheritance of the Ancient Dust God Emperor?”
“Of course!”
Shangguan Xinghe admitted it frankly.
“Who wouldn’t have thoughts about the inheritance of such a top-notch expert? Although my Shangguan family has the foundation of the Divine Emperor, it is impossible to be compared with the Divine Emperor Guchen in terms of inheritance.
However, the news of Gu Chen Mansion has spread far and wide, and there are many powerful people eyeing Gu Chen Divine Emperor’s inheritance. It is not easy for my Shangguan family to obtain the Divine Emperor’s inheritance.
So I came here this time to cooperate with Hongshan City. You and I will join hands to enter the Ancient Dust Secret Realm. If we can obtain the inheritance of the Divine Emperor, we can comprehend it together!”
Shangguan Xinghe finally revealed the real purpose of his trip.
Ancient dust secret realm!
Shen Changqing’s expression remained unchanged. After all, Shangguan Xinghe did not come earlier or later, but waited until the news of the Guchen Secret Realm came out before coming to Hongshan City. His purpose was very obvious.
“There are probably many forces eyeing the Ancient Dust Secret Realm. The Ancient Wasteland is no longer the same as before. Many forces from Jiuzhou have entered this place. Once the news of the Ancient Dust Secret Realm comes out, I’m afraid that even the Divine Emperor will come out to snatch it.
Although the Shangguan family is quite powerful, how can they be sure of snatching food from the tiger’s mouth? Even if we add Hongshan City, it will not be enough!”
“Seizing opportunities has never just relied on strength, but also on luck. To be honest with Brother Hongshan, my Shangguan family naturally obtained the method of inheriting the ancient dust secret realm.
But as Brother Hongshan said, there are many forces eyeing the Ancient Dust Secret Realm, and my Shangguan family cannot handle it alone.
But if we can get help from Hongshan City, then this trip will be much smoother.”
Shangguan Xinghe’s confident look made Shen Changqing slightly stunned. He didn’t expect that the other party could be so confident.
Think about it for a moment.
Shen Changqing already understood in his heart.
The Shangguan family probably has something related to the Guchen Secret Realm, or treasures related to the Guchen God Emperor.
otherwise.
The other party would not be so sure.
Think of this.
Shen Changqing asked again: “This matter should be kept secret. Brother Shangguan rashly told me, aren’t you afraid that I will spread the news?”
“Brother Hongshan won’t do that. After all, in the eyes of other forces, Hongshan City is on the same front as the Shangguan family. I believe that Brother Hongshan should also know the past of my Shangguan family.”
“Are you talking about the Xuanming Sect?”
“Yes, it is the Xuanming Sect!”
Shangguan Xinghe gritted his teeth, murderous intent revealed in his eyes.
“Back then, my Shangguan family’s ancestor fell at the hands of the Xuanming Sect’s Divine Emperor and had to leave the Great Soul State. But even so, the Xuanming Sect sent strong men to kill him.
Among the three million disciples of the Shangguan family, only 300,000 were able to survive and reach the Great Soul State. This hatred has never been forgotten by my Shangguan family for a moment.
Now that the Xuanming Sect has stepped into the Ancient Wilderness, its intention to destroy my Shangguan Family is set. The alliance between Hongshan City and my Shangguan Family is destined to become a thorn in the side of the Xuanming Sect.
The Xuanming Sect is overbearing. Even if Hongshan City really wants to abandon the Shangguan Family and join them, I’m afraid it won’t be as pleasant as Brother Hongshan thinks!”
Three million disciples of the Shangguan family.
Only 300,000 were left after being killed by the Xuanming Sect.
Shen Changqing finally understood how deep the feud between the two families was.
No wonder.
When talking about Xuanming Sect, Shangguan Xinghe revealed such a strong murderous intent.
“Ever since the Xuanming Sect entered the Ancient Wasteland, they have been suppressing my Shangguan family openly and covertly. The talismans that I originally traded with Brother Hongshan have been almost consumed in the war with the Xuanming Sect!”
“I heard that Xuanming Sect has three God Emperors, and the Shangguan family does not have a God Emperor now. Why doesn’t Xuanming Sect just wipe out the Shangguan family in one fell swoop?”
Shen Changqing expressed his doubts.
If the strength of both sides is similar, then a fierce battle is understandable.
But the difference in strength between the two sides was obviously more than an order of magnitude. If the Xuanming Sect wanted to destroy the Shangguan family, they could just send out a Divine Emperor to do it. Why would it delay until now?
Shangguan Xinghe did not shy away from saying, “It is true that my Shangguan family has declined, but it is not that we do not have any trump cards left. If the Xuanming Sect really launches a full-scale war against my Shangguan family, then even if the entire clan is exterminated, we can still leave one or two of their Divine Emperors behind.
Under the current situation, if the Xuanming Sect loses one or two Divine Emperors, the consequences will be something they cannot bear.
So now they are just constantly eroding the power of the Shangguan family, but have not really started an all-out war.
If our Shangguan family is destroyed one day, then Hongshan City will definitely be the next target of Xuanming Sect.”
“So, the Ancient Dust Secret Realm is our chance. Obtaining the inheritance left by the Ancient Dust Divine Emperor may help my Shangguan family ancestor break through the Divine Lord barrier.
If another Divine Emperor can emerge in my Shangguan world, then the Xuanming Sect will have to think carefully before taking action again.
After all, the strength of a Divine Emperor cannot be underestimated. Even if it is a newly promoted Divine Emperor, if he really counterattacks before his death, it will be enough to make Xuanming Sect drink a pot, not to mention the foundation left by my Shangguan family!”
Shangguan Xinghe smiled confidently.
Hearing this.
Shen Changqing nodded slightly.
indeed.
If Shangguan Xuanzhen is really promoted to the Divine Emperor, his strength will certainly be further improved. The impact of a Divine Emperor’s counterattack at all costs will also be enormous.
In comparison.
Ji Yan is just a lot worse.
A powerful Divine Emperor was restrained in his actions and was worn down to death by himself, without being able to truly fight back before his death.
If Ji Yan really counterattacked before his death, or simply self-destructed, Shen Changqing might be forced to make some backup plans.
What a pity.
Ji Yan never had such determination from beginning to end.
When he wanted to self-destruct at the last moment, it was already too late.
You can say that.
Among the many God Emperors Shen Changqing has seen, Ji Yan is the most useless one. It’s not that he is weak, but his character is also quite average.
Even if such a cultivator does not die at his hands, he is destined to die at the hands of other cultivators in the future.
Seeing Shen Changqing silent, Shangguan Xinghe did not urge him and waited quietly for the other party’s answer.
In his opinion.
There was no way Shen Changqing could refuse.
After a while.
Under Shangguan Xinghe’s expectant gaze, Shen Changqing nodded: “I agree with the Shangguan family’s proposal, but my Hongshan City may not want the inheritance of the Ancient Dust Secret Realm, but I do need the resources of the Ancient Dust Secret Realm.
If we really get the inheritance of the Ancient Dust God Emperor, and the resources we get are not enough to offset the value of the inheritance, then the Shangguan family will have to compensate Hongshan City with a portion of its resources. “
“There is no problem with this matter!”
Shangguan Xinghe smiled.
