Alchemy Emperor of the Divine Dao

Chapter 4357  Another Deal

Ling Han was in no hurry. He knew that the burst of power from Nalan Huoshu could only last for a while, so he only had to drag things out for half a minute.

As expected, after only a while, the tattoos burning fiercely on Nalan Huoshuʼs arms dimmed, as if dead silent.

The burst of power had ended.

Ling Han smiled, and threw a punch.

Peng!

The danger was close at hand, and Nalan Huoshu instinctively parried. Then, he broke out of the illusion.

”You dare to trick me!” he roared in fury, appearing to be extremely furious.

A hundred years of lifespan had actually been wasted just like that.

Ling Hanʼs eyes turned cold, and he said calmly, ”Scram immediately. Otherwise, I will definitely kill you!”

Nalan Huoshu gritted his teeth, his whole body trembling.

He wanted so much to kill Ling Han, but he no longer had any explosive power. If he forced himself to face it head-on, the result could possibly be his spiritual bodies being destroyed one after another, and finally, it would be the main bodyʼs turn.

He had to endure this humiliation.

Nalan Huoshu took a deep breath, turned around abruptly, and left angrily.

Killing intent flashed across Ling Hanʼs eyes, but he didnʼt give chase.

It wasnʼt that he didnʼt want to kill Nalan Huoshu, but that he was presently in the territory of the Flame Skin Race. If he really killed him, would those elders of the Flame Skin Race sit by and watch?

Though the battle prowess of these elders themselves was not all that impressive, the walking sticks in their hands were very frightening. They could blast out power on the level of Pseudo Sect Master, and even Lian Yutang did not dare to trifle with them.

Ling Han was only at the peak stage of the Fifth Change. If he were to face battle prowess of such levels now, he would be at a huge disadvantage.

Thus, he decided to endure for a while, because after this battle, he suddenly gained inspiration for breaking through.

He immediately sat down in a cross-legged position, attempting to break through to Sixth Change.

—Others would definitely not think that he was presently breaking through to Sixth Change.

Who would be so bold, and so rash?

They would assume that he was recovering. After all, he had just experienced a great battle.

He had made the right bet. No one from the Flame Skin Race came out to provoke him, as if he and Nalan Huoshu had only had a small conflict.

However, the empress and the others were very familiar with Ling Han. They all sat around him, protecting him in the center.

Five days later, the sixth spiritual body had already formed into an embryonic form, and developed into a mist-like shape.

Sixth Change!

Ling Hanʼs eyes snapped open, and two streaks of divine light shot out. It was as if they could penetrate the heavens, but it was only an instant. All the divine light had disappeared, and his eyes had returned to normal. They were very ordinary, and looked no different from any ordinary personʼs. There was only a hint of gentleness in them.

”Ling Han, youʼve broken through?” Hu Niu asked.

”En.” Ling Han nodded, ”Sixth Change.”

”Thatʼs great!” Hu Niu clapped her hands, ”Letʼs go fight, and beat those b@stards to death!”

”Thatʼs right! Kill them! Theyʼre far too arrogant!” the large black dog roared.

Ling Han waved his hand dismissively, and said, ”Donʼt be anxious. Letʼs go and discuss a business deal first.”

The large black dogʼs eyes immediately lit up. With his understanding of Ling Han, this was Ling Han trying to scam others again.

”Alright, alright, alright.”

Ling Han stood up and left. The large black dog hurriedly followed him. The little azure dragon naturally wouldnʼt miss out on this kind of excitement, so it hurriedly followed behind him.

They walked to the entrance of the palace, and Ling Han casually found a member of the Flame Skin Race, and said, ”I want to see your elder.”

That member of the Flame Skin Race had witnessed the battle between Ling Han and Nalan Huoshu, so he naturally didnʼt dare to be negligent. He hurriedly ran into the palace.

Ling Han and the others didnʼt enter. They naturally knew that there was a Saint-level formation in the palace. If they entered, their lives would be in the hands of the person controlling the formation.

Not long after, an old man whose upper body was bare walked out with a cane in hand.

It was still Fifth Elder.

”Young friend, come in for a chat,” Fifth Elder said with a wave and a smile, looking very gentle.

How could Ling Han possibly agree? Previously, there was no animosity between them, and the other wanted to obtain the key from the palace, so he naturally wouldnʼt do anything to him before he obtained it.

It was different now. He would definitely not walk right into a trap.

”The ventilation indoors isnʼt good, so letʼs just walk outside and chat,” Ling Han said with a smile.

”Young friend, you are really careful!” Fifth Elder shook his head, ”What is it? Are you still worried that I will harm you?”

Ling Han merely smiled, and did not continue the conversation.

Thus, they casually strolled around the plaza, admiring the scenery, and had some meaningless chatter.

”Young friend, what are you trying to say to me?” In the end, Fifth Elder couldnʼt take it anymore. This guy clearly looked to be only in his twenties, but why was he so calm?

Ling Han smiled, and said, ”I want to do another business deal with Fifth Elder.”

”Oh, could it be that you have another key?” Fifth Elder also said with a smile. This naturally was a teasing remark.

He refused to believe that Ling Hanʼs luck would be so good. One had to realize that Ling Han definitely couldnʼt be regarded as the number one elite among those who entered this Mystery Realm. In fact, it was already extremely difficult for him to enter the top 10. And this was due to him having obtained Crimson Ground Fruits at that.

Ling Han spread open his hand, and there was an ancient-looking key in his palm.

This!

Fifth Ekder instantly looked surprised. Wasnʼt this the key that they had been searching for all this while?

This brat was really amazing. He had actually obtained two keys.

”Same old rules, seventy Crimson Ground Fruits,” Ling Han said with a smile.

Fifth Elder gritted his teeth, feeling a deep pain in his balls.

Actually, as long as all the keys had not been gathered, there was not much difference between having one or eight.

Thus, if Ling Han had taken out two keys before, he would probably only be willing to give out 70 Crimson Ground Fruits, at most.

This guy clearly had two keys, yet sold one at a time. Wasnʼt this clearly trying to screw him over?

”Young friend, this is a little inappropriate of you.” Fifth Elder shook his head, a hint of displeasure on his face.

He wanted Ling Han to know.

Ling Han naturally wouldnʼt give in just because of this, and he asked, ”Whatʼs inappropriate?”

”Young friend, you should also know that there is not much difference between possessing one key and two keys.” Fifth Elder said, ”Thus, to sell two keys for the same high price, there is naturally a lack of fairness.”

Ling Han nodded, ”If thatʼs the case, then fine. Letʼs go.”

He nodded at the large black dog and the little azure dragon.

”Yi, where are you guys going?” Fifth Elder hurriedly asked.

”Of course Iʼm going to find someone who can afford the price,” Ling Han said with a smile.

”Someone not so stingy,” the large black dog added.

Fifth Elder instantly wanted to slap someone. Was this called being stingy?

You guys screwed us over first, all right?

He humphed, and said, ”Young friend, donʼt refuse a toast only to be forced to drink a forfeit!”

”What is it? Want to turn hostile and make a move?” Ling Han asked with a smile.

Fifth Elder smiled faintly, ”These few days, you are all trying to probe our background, but arenʼt we the same? Young friend Ling, I have heard that you are not very well-liked in the Ancestral King Academy.”

”Is that so?” Ling Han pretended to be surprised, and looked towards the large black dog, ”Old Black, what do you think?”

”How could that be!” The large black dogʼs expression was filled with anger, ”Our Little Han is too popular, and is loved by everyone. Where did this rumor come from? This is practically a serious slander against our Little Han.”
