Chapter 476 Negotiating Terms
Lin Bao waved at Lin Xuan from high above, “Xuan’er.”
Lin Xuan raised his head and saw the two ancestors, Qingtian and Lin Bao. He pulled the baby dragon with one hand and gently tapped the ground before lightly jumping to the highest level of the spirit ship.
“Ancestor, why are you calling me?”
The two ancestors, Lin Qingtian and Lin Bao, looked at each other. Then, Lin Bao said, “This time, the Great Abyss Master helped us a lot. It’s all thanks to the Great Abyss Master and the Suanni that Black Crow’s plan did not succeed in the end.”
“Now that we’re on the spirit ship of the Great Abyss Master, we have to return this favor!”
Lin Xuan nodded, “Of course.”
He looked at the expressions of the two ancestors and suddenly said, “The two ancestors have made a decision. I wonder if you have any suggestions?”.
Lin Bao continued, “I don’t think the Great Abyss Master needs anything else. Why don’t we give a few strands of True Dragon Qi to him?”
Lin Xuan cupped his hands at the two ancestors, “Of course.”
He had even lent out the baby dragon already. He had repaid the favor in this case.
When Lin Xuan gradually sensed the increasingly dense spiritual qi in the surroundings, they had already seen land, but they were all deserted islands.
These small islands were very small and could be seen at a glance, but they were scattered everywhere.
The further the spirit ship traveled, the more such small islands appeared. These small islands were like gray pearls that covered the dark blue sea.
When they saw the long fjord, everyone finally felt that they had left the Xiang Sea.
When the Lin family disciples saw the long fjord, the endless land, and the dense spiritual qi in the surroundings, they excitedly took out their spiritual swords and stepped on it.
The young disciples seemed to have been suppressed for a long time and finally erupted. One by one, they flew around the spirit ship covered in black qi like streams of light.
The few ancestors of the Lin family let these little brats cause trouble. They chuckled as if they were looking at their youngest grandson. They felt that the insensible commotion was cute in their eyes.
“Ahhh… we’ve finally crossed the Xiang Sea!”
“When we reach land, I want to sleep for a day and night.”
“I want to cultivate for a day and night.”
“I want to play with the True Dragon for a day and night.”
After the disciple shouted at the sky, the surrounding voices fell silent. Everyone looked at him with disdain.
Before the disciple could explain, he was drowned by everyone’s words. “Dream on. Can you get close to the True Dragon?”
“That’s right. You dare to snatch the True Dragon from the Abyss Master? Go and see if you can defeat the Suanni with your cultivation.”
It was unknown when it started, but the little True Dragon no longer followed behind the Saint Child as a follower. Instead, it became a little tail that followed behind the Great Abyss Master.
The Lin family disciples could only look at the Great Abyss Master with covetous gazes, but they did not dare to stand in his way, although the image of the Great Abyss Master in their hearts had changed.
However, the Great Abyss Master was an ancient demon beast after all. Which brat dared to be impudent in front of an ancient demon beast? They were not the Lin family’s Saint Child and dared to stretch out their hands to stroke the tiger’s whiskers.
Moreover, there was a ferocious Suanni following behind the Great Abyss Master at all times. If the Suanni glanced at them, they could have nightmares for the entire night.
Under the mockery, the arrogant disciple scratched his neck and admitted defeat, “Didn’t I say it? I want to… I just want to!”
“Hahahaha…” The surroundings burst into laughter, and it instantly filled this spirit ship surrounded by black fog.
When the disciple who was laughed at saw this, he could only mutter, “I didn’t say that I had to. Think about it. Am I not allowed to dream?”
The matter of the baby dragon being the follower of the Great Abyss Master had to be mentioned two days ago.
The Great Abyss Master was asked by Lin Xuan to be Black Crow’s negotiator.
It was unknown what the Great Abyss Master said to Black Crow. In any case, the two of them were locked in the dark room for a day. Then, the Great Abyss Master expressed to Lin Xuan that he had agreed, as long as Lin Xuan helped Black Crow suppress the backlash of the devouring power. “What terms did he offer in exchange?”
“The Xiang Sea and the devouring power.”
Lin Xuan nodded, “Deal!”
Lin Xuan did not want Black Crow to die under the backlash of the corrosive power. There were only a few ten-thousand-year-old demon beasts left in this world.
“However, he has already been severely injured by the corrosive power. His spirit meridians can’t recover completely like mine. After all, he’s a ten-thousand-year-old demon. There’s nothing I can do about his recovery speed.”
“Therefore, he won’t be able to recover in a short period of time. What does he want to do? Stay in the Xiang Sea or follow us to the Central Yan Continent?”
At this moment, the Great Abyss Master’s expression seemed to be a little troubled.
Lin Xuan was a little strange. He asked, “What’s wrong? He wants neither? What does he want?”
The Great Abyss Master shook his head, “Black Crow can’t enter and leave the Xiang Sea freely. He’s trapped in the Xiang Sea.”
“So what happened ten thousand years ago that caused you demons to be trapped in different places?”
This did not seem to be a happy thing to recall. The Great Abyss Master did not want to answer Lin Xuan’s question.
“In any case, there’s such a thing. Therefore, the first thing we have to do is to save Black Crow from the Xiang Sea.”
Lin Xuan vaguely felt that this was not easy to do.
He looked at the Great Abyss Master suspiciously, “You were trapped in the Great Desolate Forbidden Land. I used a divine sword to cut the chain that locked you, but I don’t think Black Crow has an ancient divine artifact tying him up.”
“How can I save him from the Xiang Sea?”
Lin Xuan saw that Black Crow came and went freely in the entire Xiang Sea, and he did not seem to be trapped here.
The Great Abyss Master explained, “Black Crow is imprisoned in the Xiang Sea. If the spirit ship goes any further, Black Crow will disappear.”
Lin Xuan was stunned, “What do you mean by disappearing?”
“He will completely disappear from the Profound Sky Land, Black Crow will no longer exist.”
Therefore, there was no need for the backlash of the devouring power. If Black Crow was on the spirit ship and left the range of the Xiang Sea, would he disappear? Would his soul dissipate?
Who set up this array formation? It was actually so powerful that it could trap people in one place. Moreover, this array formation had not lost its effect for ten thousand years.
However, Lin Xuan was a little puzzled. How did the Great Abyss Master know that he could resolve the array formation?
“How can I crack such an array formation? Black Crow is so powerful, and he’s a ten-thousand-year-old demon. You’re not bad either. How can you not crack such an array formation?”
Lin Xuan was really a little puzzled. These ten-thousand-year-old demons were always more knowledgeable than him. If they could not solve such an array formation, how could he?
