Chapter 376: Weapon of a Noble Person (Teaser)
The Golden Core Tier earth immortal suddenly smiled and said, "I see, so you are a disciple of Legalism. No wonder…"
Chen Ping'an didn't know how the earth immortal had formed such a misunderstanding.
The earth immortal was probably very familiar with the culture and customs of the Azure Phoenix Nation. He smiled with squinted eyes and continued, "Then we should indeed spar with each other."
The atmosphere at the mountain pass instantly became very tense.
Vagrant cultivators were accustomed to going back on their word and betraying their allies. People die in pursuit of wealth just like how birds die in pursuit of food. Who didn't want to earn an additional fifty lesser heat coins? They would naturally work for clean money, but did that mean they would refrain from fighting for blood money?
How did vagrant cultivators obtain official positions in the imperial courts or become guest elders in immortal forces? Most of the time, their stepping stone would be the completion of a dirty task.

The earth immortal didn't answer this question directly. Instead, he smiled and explained, "This is no simple task. We can either heed the advice of your friends and spend an exorbitant of money to set up numerous formations in the surroundings to stabilize the earth veins and minimize the impact of the earthquake, or we would need a Qi refiner to possess a connate immortal treasure and have them refine this treasure into their bonded item. That way, the immortal treasure can be used to stabilize the mountains and suppress the earth veins."
Seeing Chen Ping'an remain silent, the earth immortal carefully observed the young man for a moment before saying, "I'm sure we'll meet again someday."
The earth immortal seemingly abandoned his plan to "spar" with Chen Ping'an, and he looked at the leaders of the various alliances of vagrant cultivators such as the elder in black sitting atop the giant five-tailed black fox, Formation Cultivator Lü Yangzhen, and so...
