Responding? Of course, there was no response.
Shangguan Huanling still didn't know that Chu Ling had entered the Human Emperor Banner, nor would she know that Chu Ling's last words were to ask Lu Ye to spare Shangguan Huanling.
However, she would know in the future.
They wouldn't ascend and not come looking for Lu Ye.
Fourth Heaven.
In a place where Shouren Daoist was not present.
Seven or eight figures met.
"Limitless Celestial Venerable, these unscrupulous merchants, these scoundrels! I always thought I had a good relationship with them, but in the end, at this critical moment, they really made us bleed heavily!"
Many sects had now realized that they had overestimated themselves.
Two million pure top-grade spiritual stones, where were they so easy to take out all at once?
They could only sell treasures to raise top-grade spiritual stones, but everyone was selling, which directly led to a drop in prices, allowing other forces that hadn't provoked Lu Ye to make a fortune. It was truly despicable to the extreme.
They gnashed their teeth in hatred, but there wasn't much they could do.
"Anyway, I've remembered them. In the future, if there's a chance, what they took from us this time, I will make them spit out double!"
"Two million three hundred thousand top-grade spiritual stones, my sect is really going to be hollowed out. If these spiritual stones are given to Lu Ye, I think the sect won't need to be destroyed by others, it will just collapse on its own!"
"Who says it isn't? {N•o•v•e•l•i•g•h•t} My sect has also been emptied, but what can we do?"
Everyone spoke one after another.
"Everyone, stop complaining. I asked you to come this time not to complain, but to discuss important matters!"
The complaining voices stopped.
Everyone's gaze focused on one person.
"Presumably, you already have the answer in your hearts."
"That's right, it's about killing Lu Ye."
The crowd immediately began to stir slightly. Now, there were less than seven hours until the peace talks.
They had even almost prepared the spiritual stones, and now you suddenly bring up the matter of killing Lu Ye?
He couldn't be killed!
If he could be killed, Lu Ye would have died a hundred times by now.
"In the past, we couldn't kill him because his escape ability was strong, but this time, if we cut off his possibility of escaping, and then bombard him with powerful treasures, does he still have any hope of surviving?"
"But he has formations!"
Someone said, their voice filled with both fear and excitement.
"So this time, I will have a formation master go over. The greater the power of the grand formation, the larger the area it occupies, and the more conditions it requires."
"If the formation master detects a huge formation ahead, then stop the action and obediently seek peace."
"If there is no formation..."
"Bombard him with full force?"
"Right!"
"No, this matter is too big, I can't make the decision myself, I must go back and discuss it!"
"Two million three hundred thousand top-grade spiritual stones, not high-grade, not mid-grade, all are top-grade spiritual stones. Do you really not feel any pain taking out such a batch of spiritual stones?"
"Countless years of savings all fall into the hands of others!"
"If we pay out this batch of spiritual stones, what will our forces rely on to survive? Can they even survive?"
"He just wants to force us to our deaths!"
"No, no, I think peace talks are good, peace talks are good. I really don't want to be enemies with this Lu Ye anymore. What realm is he at? He's already this powerful. If you give him some more time, the entire Fourth Heaven will be his to command!"
"Precisely because he is so strong despite his low realm, we must choose to strike with full force now. Otherwise, when he becomes stronger, we will truly have no hope at all."
A discussion was quietly underway.
Three days passed in a flash.
The value of top-grade spiritual stones had risen to an astonishing level due to the compensation from these more than thirty sects.
Originally, one top-grade spiritual stone could buy one Soul Penetration Pill.
But now, one top-grade spiritual stone could even buy three, or four.
There was no other way, scarcity makes things valuable.
The top-grade spiritual stones on the market were rapidly decreasing, which caused the price of top-grade spiritual stones to rise quickly.
Everyone gathered.
Shouren Daoist had been waiting here for these three days.
He looked at the Heaven and Earth Realm magnates arriving one by one, his eyelids twitching.
"Shouren Daoist Brother, can you tell us where to send the spiritual stones to Lu Ye now?"
Shouren Daoist took a deep breath.
"This poor Daoist emphasizes again, this time for peace talks, there must be absolutely no carelessness. If you want to make a move on Lu Ye during this peace seeking process, this poor Daoist will speak frankly beforehand, this poor Daoist will attack you, a ruthless attack like a life-and-death battle!" Shouren Daoist's expression was extremely serious.
"Daoist Brother, in these three days, our various sects have all done our utmost to raise top-grade spiritual stones. You must have seen it."
"If we still wanted to make a move on Lu Ye, how could we still be so dedicated to finding top-grade spiritual stones."
"Yes, yes, in order to gather these two million top-grade spiritual stones, our sect almost sold its sect-protecting treasure."
Everyone quickly stated their stance.
Shouren Daoist's expression remained unchanged, naturally maintaining an extremely serious look.
"This is your last chance for peace talks. If this time is not successful, and you make a move on Lu Ye, all of your sects will be annihilated. This is absolutely not an exaggeration!"
"Rest assured, Daoist Brother, we will absolutely not go back on our word."
Everyone repeatedly expressed their commitment.
"Good, remember what you said, let's go!"
A group of Heaven and Earth Realm cultivators, a total of fourteen, the others were Reincarnation Realm.
There was no other way, the Heaven and Earth Realm cultivators of some sects were all killed by Lu Ye, directly turning them from first-rate sects into second-rate sects.
In fact, as Wang Yi said before, it was true.
Lu Ye demanded so many spiritual stones, each sect one to two million. With so many top-grade spiritual stones, if one could get their hands on them, it could be said that cultivating all the way to the peak of the Fifth Heaven would be no problem.
This temptation was extremely huge.
Some Heaven and Earth Realm powerhouses had been watching early on.
But when they saw a large crowd of more than a dozen Heaven and Earth Realm cultivators walking out, the hidden Heaven and Earth Realm cultivators' expressions changed drastically, and they instantly disappeared.
If there was only Shouren Daoist alone, they would have been ready to kill and seize treasures.
But with so many Heaven and Earth Realm cultivators together at once, trying to rob the spiritual stones was simply a pipe dream.
Along the way, various auras kept appearing, but they all chose to retreat.
There were too many powerhouses.
Once a fight broke out, it probably wouldn't end quickly, and if the other side called for reinforcements, everything would be over.
So along the way, it could be said that it was thrilling but without danger.
Jiang Family ruins.
It was very far away.
"We're here, everyone can give me the spiritual stones now. You just wait here and must not get any closer," Shouren Daoist said.
"Okay, thank you for your trouble, Daoist Brother."
Some people began to hand over their storage rings to Shouren Daoist.
And some people had already begun to check.
No traces of formations were found.
"Daoist Brother, are you sure Lu Ye is here? We haven't sensed anything, so we're still not too reassured!"
Someone spoke.
Shouren Daoist's expression instantly changed drastically.
