2586 Casting Bait

The recruitment for the northern expedition was in full swing. The Hundred Alliance City promised that the things outside the Land of Inheritance would belong to whoever obtained them.

This was already the greatest promise. This was because once someone really obtained the inheritance of a Great Monarch or an ultra-quality godly weapon, it would be a lie to say that no one was tempted.

In other words, the recruitment information meant that they could manage the outside of the Land of Inheritance, but not the inside. If you fought each other, it would have nothing to do with the Hundred Alliance City. No one would be responsible for this.

For most people, a level-seven mineral was already equivalent to a godly weapon. As for the things inside the Land of Inheritance, it depended on luck. Their purpose in the Infinite Mining Area was to become stronger, to make a breakthrough, and to prove their Dao.

Now there was an opportunity in front of them, and it was such a big opportunity. If they participated in such an event and died, they could only blame their lack of strength and bad luck.

However, who was willing to admit that they were weak and unlucky?

At this moment, there was a sea of people at the recruitment ground, mainly because there were many onlookers.

Although it was common to see a perfected Star Transformation Realm cultivator, there were not as many as today. Surprised voices came from the crowd from time to time.

Someone exclaimed, “That’s the former itinerant cultivator, Mad Blade, Feng Lun. He was already in the peak-level late-stage Star Transformation Realm ten thousand years ago. I wonder if he has broken through to the perfected Star Transformation Realm.”

Someone was surprised. “Look, that’s Demon Sword Chen Shang. He hasn’t shown up for more than five thousand years. I didn’t expect him to still be alive. He was once a famous sword cultivator in the Infinite Mining Area.”

Someone pointed at a brawny man and said in shock, “Dragon Ring Zhang Ning, another perfected Star Transformation Realm cultivator. He has eighteen rings made of dragon bones. They’re said to be high-quality godly weapons. I didn’t expect this guy to come too.”

“…”

While the recruitment of itinerant cultivators was going on, the various races within the Hundred Alliances were also conducting various recruitments and there was constant controversy.

Some forces were having internal discussions.

Someone said, “I think we can give up the northern expedition this time. That Human Butcher is not a fool. The place of inheritance of the Great Monarch that he could have explored slowly on his own has been made public, and people are going to explore it in the form of a northern expedition. Is he a saint? How can he give it away?”

Someone said, “There’s no need to worry about that. First of all, the inheritance of the Great Monarch should be real. Not just one or two people saw the Bloody Hand Mine Devils. Everyone who was in the joint exploration team saw it. Although they didn’t reach the real entrance, Human Butcher had to go to the northern expedition himself this time. With the entire Hundred Alliance City watching him, where can he run to? There will be so many people. Why should we be afraid of him playing tricks alone?”

Someone said, “He might not do anything outside the Land of Inheritance, but what about inside the Land of Inheritance? Have any of you been there? What’s inside? Who can be sure we won’t be scammed by the Human Butcher?”

Someone agreed. “Yes, this is indeed not easy to be sure. But I estimate that this Human Butcher might not have a chance to enter the Land of Inheritance. He wants to use the power of the Infinite Mining Area to open up the Land of Inheritance, but the other members of the Hundred Alliance City might have the same thoughts. Anyway, that place has to be opened up. Human Butcher has spent so much effort to facilitate this northern expedition. The big clans in the Hundred Alliance City have saved a lot of trouble. Besides, they can know about a Great Monarch’s Land of Inheritance. Why not?”

…

Some forces were also discussing.

Someone said, “We have to go on this northern expedition this time. It’s rare to have such a chance. There must be many opportunities on this trip. Even if there isn’t the inheritance of a Great Monarch, we have to go there, let alone that there is the inheritance of a Great Monarch.”

Someone agreed. “That’s right. Everyone has seen the terrifying probability of death in every northern expedition, but they ignored the fact that after every northern expedition, there are people who rise. In this world, there are too many Sky Opening Realm cultivators. Without tens of thousands of Sky Opening Realm cultivators, it’s impossible for the remaining people not to rise.”

Someone seconded him. “There must be a lot of people who will die in this northern expedition. If we can obtain their Origin Stars, it will be an opportunity for us to rise. I’m afraid many itinerant cultivators have taken a fancy to this.”

Someone sneered. “What else can the itinerant cultivators do besides teaming up brainlessly? When the time comes, the corpses obtained by the itinerant cultivators will have to be auctioned in the Hundred Alliance City, or they’ll have to have someone take their Origin Star.”

…

Apart from the internal discussions of some major forces, now in the Capital of Horror’s camp, opposite Wushuang was a middle-aged man who looked quite wise.

The man said, “May I ask why Miss Wushuang has invited me here?”

Wushuang smiled faintly and said, “Senior An, I have some requests for you. The northern expedition is imminent, so I won’t beat around the bush with you. I heard that the Chaotic Wasteland is affected by tidal waves all year round, so it produces energy crystals and Clean Stones. I want Clean Stones, The more, the better.”

“Oh?”

An Qingzhi, who was sitting opposite Wushuang, was stunned for a moment. As a smart person, he immediately thought of something. “Clean Stones? Miss Wushuang, that’s a purifying object to deal with the ominous. And this northern expedition is to find the inheritance of the Great Monarch…”

Suddenly, An Qingzhi stopped talking. He took a deep look at Wushuang as if he had seen through everything in an instant.

Wushuang couldn’t have been interested in the Clean Stone for no reason. She must need it. The Clean Stone was meant to purify the ominous, which meant that there was an ominous invasion where the Great Monarch Bloody Hand was.

Then he thought of Han Fei’s behavior. With his strength and the key, he should have a way to enter the inheritance land directly.

However, he came back at such a great cost and even announced such a good thing. Was he really being kind? At first, everyone thought that Han Fei wanted to use the combat power of the Hundred Alliance City to help him open the way to the Land of Inheritance. But now it seemed that there might be a deeper meaning behind this.

Yes, if there was really such a good thing, there was no need for him to start a northern expedition. Therefore, the problem might not be the Bloody Hand Mine Devils, but the ominous there.

Thinking that through, An Qing was relieved. Wushuang came to him for the Clean Stones, which meant that Wushuang knew a lot, and she needed the Clean Stones to help her complete this northern expedition.

However, Wushuang was actually giving the City of Origin a chance by asking him for the Clean Stones. It was equivalent to telling him another secret of the Land of Inheritance.

But on second thought, An Qingzhi realized that there were three powers that could give Wushuang Clean Stones. One was the City of Origin, one was the City of Scavengers, and the last was the City of Wanderers.

This was because these three factions were all living in the Chaotic Wasteland and had a large number of Clean Stones in reserve.

An Qingzhi said, “Miss Wushuang, our City of Origin has the longest history in the Chaotic Wasteland, and our Clean Stone production is also the highest in the Chaotic Wasteland. Therefore, you can have as many as you want. However, the City of Origin naturally won’t give them away for nothing. I wonder what Miss Wushuang can provide?”

Wushuang asked, “What can I offer?”

Wushuang put on a smile, took out a jade slip, and pushed it to An Qingzhi.

An Qingzhi looked at the jade curiously and suddenly looked up at Wushuang. “Mine Demon Stream? Great Monarch Mystic Martial? Puppet City…”

An Qingzhi was extremely surprised when he saw the information, because it recorded Great Monarch Mystic Martial, Mine Demon Stream, and Puppet City.

After reading all the information, An Qingzhi couldn’t help but exclaim that there were still so many things he didn’t know.

It turned out that there was also a puppet city in the place where the Great Monarch Bloody Hand was suppressed. This city was the headquarters of the Great Monarch Mystic Martial.

Therefore, it turned out that this place was not only the place of inheritance of Great Monarch Bloody Hand, but also the location of Puppet City. It was very likely to have the inheritance of Great Monarch Mystic Martial.

Wushuang said, “In the Age of the Gods, there were a lot more Great Monarch-level powerhouses than there are now. If the City of Origin has enough intelligence to support it, it’s actually not difficult for you to find the opportunities here. Therefore, what I can provide is to give the City of Origin one more choice than others. Besides, I have clearly told you that I have invited the City of Scavengers and City of Wanderers to come to meet.”

Upon hearing this, An Qingzhi immediately said, “Miss Wushuang, actually, there’s no need to trouble them. In terms of combat power, ranking, and strength, our City of Origin is ranked among the top ten factions in the Infinite Mining Area. It’s not something the two of them can compare to.”

Wushuang shook her head slightly. “You can’t say that. Your City of Origin may be powerful, but I can’t just cooperate with you. Besides, if it really involves a place like Puppet City, even if all the strong masters in your City of Origin come out, it might not be enough. Therefore, there’s no need for you to try to monopolize. Our goal is opportunity. And I hope you three can stop fighting for now. At least, during the northern expedition, don’t ruin others’ plans because of old grudges.”

An Qingzhi was silent for a moment. “How many Clean Stones does Miss Wushuang need?”

Wushuang said, “That depends on your sincerity, Senior.”

…

Zhang Beihai was a Demon Octopus that had transformed into a human, and his strength was hidden. It was speculated that he might already have one foot on the fifth lock. Once he made a breakthrough again, it might be time for Zhang Beihai to prove his Dao.

When An Qingzhi came out, Zhang Beihai met his eyes, and they just nodded slightly.

Another moment later.

Zhang Beihai instructed, “Miss Wushuang, you asked someone to pass on the message that you have something important to discuss with me, and I have to come personally. What do you want to say to our City of Scavengers?”

Wushuang repeated what she had just said and then said, “That’s all I have to say. The information I’m telling you will be taken as the payment for purchasing your Clean Stones. As for who will get the opportunity, it’s up to you.”

Zhang Beihai said, “The Clean Stones will be in place within three days.”

…

After An Qingzhi and Zhang Beihai left, Long Wu came.

However, it was no longer Wushuang who met Long Wu, but Han Fei.
