100-year-old foundation building, starting from the maximum level of understanding

Chapter 122 Testing the Waters, Inappropriate Thoughts

The man in the blue robe hesitated for a moment, then nodded and said, "Alright!"

Without further hesitation, the two quickly headed forward.

At the same time, Ji Haoyuan, who was inside the Kunwu Canglong Formation, also noticed the approach of the old man with the whisk and the man in the green robe.

This immediately made his expression turn serious.

They were actually two Golden Core cultivators!
This was clearly something he hadn't anticipated.

Logically speaking, Tianchuan Valley is located in a relatively remote area.

In addition, it is close to the territory of the demon race.

Under normal circumstances, apart from cultivators who are interested in hunting demonic beasts, few people would set foot in this place, let alone a high-ranking Golden Core cultivator.

But today.

Of course, two Golden Core cultivators arrived.

Fortunately, I had already set up the Kunwu Canglong Formation here; otherwise, Ji Haoyuan wouldn't have been very confident facing two Golden Core cultivators directly.

Just then, the voices of the two people suddenly came from outside the Kunwu Canglong Formation.

"My name is Lou Chuanhai, and I have come with fellow Daoist Chu Tenglong to pay our respects. May I ask who is here, and if it would be convenient for us to come out and have a chat?"

Lou Chuanhai? Chu Tenglong?
Upon hearing the two names the other party gave, Ji Haoyuan had absolutely no recollection of them.

Moreover, the fact that the other party only gave their name without mentioning their background already showed a lack of sincerity.

This move is probably more of a test.

In particular, he is currently the only Foundation Establishment cultivator.

No matter how you respond, it doesn't seem quite right.

and so.

At this moment, Ji Haoyuan simply pretended not to hear anything and gave no response whatsoever.

This caused Lou Chuanhai and Chu Tenglong, who were outside the formation, to frown slightly.

If the other party doesn't respond, that can only mean two things.

Or perhaps the other party simply doesn't want to talk to them at all.

Or perhaps the other party simply doesn't dare to respond.

If it were the former, that would be fine.

But if it is the latter, then it means that the true owner of this place is very likely not here.

Such a third-tier spiritual land is rare; if we could take advantage of the other party's absence...

A strange glint flashed in their eyes at that moment.

However, they also knew that the person who could set up such a third-order formation here must have extraordinary abilities.

In particular, this place was previously occupied by a third-tier great demon.

If they want to do something, they must be extremely cautious.

Thinking of this, Lou Chuanhai said:

"To be honest, I've been here before and know that there's a Tier 3 Moon Worshiping Silver Wolf here."

I had planned to combine my strength with that of Fellow Daoist Chu to drive away that wicked beast.

Unexpectedly, you have already accomplished this task ahead of us, which is truly commendable.

I wonder how I should address you, and whether it would be convenient for us to pay you a visit?
At that time, Fellow Daoist Chu and I will certainly present you with generous gifts.

These words are absolutely correct.

This not only points out their understanding of the area, but also indicates their attitude.

Normally, since we are all cultivators of the same realm, and you have already said this much, we would not refuse you entry out of courtesy.

But here's the thing.

The current situation is not normal.

Inside the formation, Ji Haoyuan was the only Foundation Establishment cultivator.

How could he possibly let two Golden Core cultivators of unknown origin in?

But he also knew that things had come to this point, and continuing to "play dead" would be pointless and might even backfire. Thinking this, Ji Haoyuan simply spoke up to the two of them:
"So it was Senior Lou and Senior Chu who graced us with their presence."

I was in seclusion at the time, so please forgive me if I have been negligent in any way.

no way.

He didn't respond to the other party immediately. As a Foundation Establishment "junior," he should always give the other party a reason.

Soon, Ji Haoyuan continued, "But I'm really sorry, seniors, my sister had to go out for some business and isn't here right now."

If you two seniors are willing, you can leave a communication jade talisman first. After my sister returns, I will inform her of this matter, and you two seniors can come here again then.”

At this point, he had to bring up the people behind him.

And it has to be a truly intimate relationship.

Otherwise, who would really take you seriously if you're just some nobody?
Lou Huanchuan and Chu Tenglong exchanged a glance.

There is indeed no Golden Core cultivator stationed in this third-tier spiritual land.

So, do the two of them have a chance to compete?
In the current environment, an unclaimed third-tier spiritual land is extremely rare.

As independent cultivators who climbed their way up from the bottom, no one understood better than them just how important this third-tier spiritual land was to them.

It is no exaggeration to say that this is the foundation for their future.

However, the array before them seemed quite extraordinary.

Moreover, the other party has made it clear that there is also a Golden Core cultivator behind this place.

If they were to take advantage of the other's absence and attack this place, then the two sides would become mortal enemies.

Moreover, they were quite wary of the older sister that Ji Haoyuan mentioned.

That being was capable of driving away that third-tier great demon single-handedly.

Such people are not people that they can deal with alone.

What should we do? Should we take action here or not?

Lou Huanchuan and Chu Tenglong were both struggling with their own feelings.

This is also a characteristic of these low-level, independent cultivators.

Before doing anything, I will try my best to weigh the pros and cons.

They would never act rashly unless they had a greater than 50% chance of success.

However, they had been searching for a third-tier spiritual land for far too long.

If they miss this place again, they don't know how much more time it will take to find a similar one.

At worst, they can just stay here.

Anyway, such a spiritual place, if they can obtain it, will be enough for them to cultivate for a very long time.

Thinking of this, a hint of ruthlessness appeared in both of their eyes.

But on the surface, they didn't show it at all.

Then Chu Tenglong laughed and said, "I see. We were the ones who were presumptuous."

However, we both greatly admire the fellow Daoist who was able to drive away the Moon-Worshipping Silver Wolf.

"Young friend, would you please allow us to enter first and wait for your sister's return?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Ji Haoyuan, who was inside the great formation, felt a sinking feeling in his heart.

He is not stupid.

The fact that the other party said that means they don't want to leave.

And he began to have some inappropriate thoughts about this sacred place where he was now the only one.

Thinking of this, Ji Haoyuan simply stopped answering.

I have already made the situation very clear.

So, your intention to keep trying to come in is already quite obvious.

It's not considered impolite to simply ignore it.
