In the world of martial arts, there is a vast fantasy world.

Chapter 180 Just playing around in life

For martial artists, the flesh and blood of demonic beasts have always been considered a resource.

When the martial arts world first began in the Human Federation, the only training resource for all martial artists came from the flesh and blood of enemies on the battlefield in another world.

As for other resources, they were found gradually later.

Even now, a large amount of cultivation resources are still made from the flesh and blood of giant beasts. For example, Shen Xing uses dragon essence blood of various grades the most.

It is said that in some otherworldly battlefields, there is even a breeding industry.

Shen Xing couldn't buy the flesh and blood resources of fourth-realm demonic beasts in the Human Federation, let alone dragons, which required a major-level authority.

If he could obtain it in this world, his cultivation would be able to proceed even faster.

"Since this Dragon Valley exists within the Sacred Lake Region, has there never been a joint effort to eliminate it?" Shen Xing asked.

"We tried before, but it didn't succeed. We only managed to take away a lot of resources." Yan Dong shook his head and explained, "There is an extremely powerful demon beast inside, along with more than a dozen fourth-realm demon beasts. To wipe it out without paying too much of a price, at least more than half of the Spirit Realm cultivators in the entire Sacred Lake Region would need to participate."

Upon hearing this, Shen Xing suddenly understood.

It's really just a problem of the gains being disproportionate to the efforts.

Aside from dragon-type cultivators like him, there's nothing special about the resources in that Dragon Valley, so why bother taking the risk?

You can get more rewards elsewhere.

Not to mention, gathering half of the Spirit Realm is no easy feat, and the Sacred Lake Region is not entirely harmonious.

Shen Xing kept this information in mind, then casually said, "In that case, let's wait for the clansmen to arrive, or..."

He shook his head and didn't say anything more.

But it made both of them feel a sense of solemnity.

Especially Yan Dong.

Besides their own people coming over, do they actually have other means to deal with this number of fourth-realm demon beasts?

However, he didn't ask rashly, but instead said, "The royal family might have some Dragon Pattern Fruit in stock; I could go and inquire about it."

"Have you not yet informed the Lan Kingdom royal family of Young Master Shen's arrival?" Ge Yefeng interrupted the Eastern King, a playful smile on his seemingly otherworldly face. "It seems the rumors between you, Eastern King, and the Lan Kingdom royal family are not unfounded."

"." The Eastern King did not speak, but his face turned cold.

"How so?" Shen Xing asked, seemingly quite interested.

"It's nothing, just a little squabble over interests. I'm sorry to have made you laugh, Young Master Shen." The Eastern King saw that Shen Xing was interested. Although he didn't really want to bring it up, he still explained, "I'm stationed at the border to keep out the monsters from beyond the realm. But for the past two hundred years, the beyond the realm has been peaceful, and more and more warriors are coming to take risks. The town has also become more and more prosperous, and some people have begun to be dissatisfied with the offerings I receive each year."

It is indeed a very simple struggle for interests.

Guarding the border is theoretically dangerous, after all, there are bound to be powerful demons from all four realms in the vast and boundless forests beyond the borders.

Therefore, the resources allocated to the King of Zhenguandong were actually quite substantial.

However, as Yan Dong's power gradually increased, Zhenguan City became more and more prosperous in recent years.

The city's resources alone are enough to make the surrounding regions envious, not to mention the tributes from the Lan Kingdom.

When the interests at hand are large enough, conflicts will naturally arise.

"That's normal," Shen Xing said with a smile. "My family has an old saying: 'The world is bustling, all for profit; the world is bustling, all for gain.' However, we martial artists believe that everything boils down to competition. Since we have the strength, there's no reason for us to give it up so easily."

Yan Dong's eyes brightened slightly.

In his view, this was undoubtedly the most correct statement. However, most people are naive and romantic when they are young.

But this young master Shen is so young, yet so mature.

It can only be said that he is indeed a scion of such a powerful family. His every move and word is different from the so-called prodigies here.

"That's right." Yan Dong readily agreed. "I'm not afraid of being laughed at by Young Master Shen. I've been wanting to gather a few friends and go to the capital to ask those people what right they have to take away my offerings."

"Okay!" Shen Xing nodded immediately. "Then let's go."

Yan Dong was taken aback.

Although he did have this idea, the way Shen Xing said it seemed to have a different meaning.

"My family still wants me to gain experience outside," Shen Xing said with a smile. "Since it's for training, I can't just stay in one place forever. I'm also a bit curious about the capital of Lan Kingdom, and it'll be a good opportunity to support Brother Yan."

Yan Dong's heart skipped a beat.

Platform?

He hadn't had much contact with Shen Xing, but what impressed him most was the air of someone from a prominent family, such as his indifference towards Spirit Realm beings.

Despite the seemingly decent attitude of this young master Shen towards me, addressing me as "Brother Yan" at every turn, his underlying sense of superiority was still clearly visible.

I'm afraid that, let alone mere Spirit Realm cultivator like myself, the other party doesn't take the entire Lan Kingdom, or even the entire Sacred Lake Region, too seriously.

All I ask for is interest and something useful to me.

Given this young master Shen's background, such privilege is perfectly normal.

If the young masters and nobles of the capital come to remote areas, it is the same. Even the sixth-realm demon ancestor is used to it, so how could he possibly have any respect for the mere Sacred Lake Domain?

It's just a game of life.

This is why he now refers to him as "Young Master Shen" instead of "Brother Shen" again.

In this situation, why would he proactively offer to stand up for himself?

Yan Dong immediately understood that this person wanted to see if there was anything he needed in the capital!

But, for me, this also seems like an opportunity?

Yan Dong hesitated slightly.

But Ge Yefeng suddenly spoke up: "As far as I know, the royal family of Lan Kingdom also has many treasured divine intents that my Wanjuan Pavilion has not yet acquired. Among them, there is at least one dragon-type divine intent of earth grade. Young Master Shen may be interested in it."

Yan Dong's eye twitched slightly.

The Myriad Scrolls Pavilion could not possibly possess all the divine will in the world, but aside from the human-level ones, the remaining earth-level ones were almost all treasures that major powers guarded closely.

For example, the technique that Ge Yefeng mentioned does exist, but it is exclusive to the royal family, and even he doesn't know it. If it were to be revealed, the Lan Kingdom's royal family would even take drastic measures and execute all those who stole it.

They even launched several wars against two other powerful nations for this reason!

This symbolizes not only the authority of the royal family, but also their greater interests!

Old Ge, you're up to no good.

Yan Dong and Ge Yefeng exchanged a glance, clearly understanding his meaning.

This person is forcing himself to take sides!

Shen Xing was unaware of what was going on behind the scenes, but he noticed the "interaction" between the two. It was obvious that Ge Yefeng seemed to be intentionally pushing him to go to the capital, without even trying to hide it.

However, this was also his intention.

Now, we've basically gotten everything we wanted in this town. There may still be a lot of rare resources on the market, but instead of wasting time here, there's much more to be found in the capital!

After all, that's where most of the wealth and resources of the entire Lan Kingdom are concentrated!

Even without the Dragon-type Earth-grade Martial Arts Intent that Ge Yefeng mentioned, he would still go there sooner or later.

However, some necessary preparations should still be made.

Relying on only three fighter jets is not safe enough for that kind of place.

There are more than ten Spirit Realm beings there!

Even though the martial artists in this world are not strong in terms of foundation and do not have armor, their martial arts realm is no weaker than that of the Human Federation. In addition, the spirit armor is not entirely useless. Their overall strength is obviously much stronger than that of demonic beasts of the same realm.

With his current capabilities, he could easily take down one or two fourth-level cultivators if he used nuclear weapons, but if a dozen or so rushed at him at once, he would probably have no choice but to slink away – which would be a huge blow to his reputation.

For Shen Xing, reputation is almost equivalent to resources.

Therefore, it is essential to do more preparation.

In addition, we should make good use of the power of the Sacred Lake Region itself.

It's nothing more than dividing and winning over.

Shen Xing then looked at Yan Dong and smiled, "I am naturally interested in the Dragon-type Divine Intent. However, if I go this time, it will mainly be to support Brother Yan. In my opinion, if Brother Yan gathers some more friends, I will also provide several Divine Weapon Puppets. At that time, I'm afraid Brother Yan's enemies will not even dare to utter a sound."

Divine Weapon Puppet?

Ge Yefeng raised an eyebrow as he recalled the huge pit he had seen yesterday.

Just as I expected!

Although it's unclear why the divine weapon puppets' attacks left no trace of Yuan energy, it's perfectly normal for a young nobleman with such a powerful background to have some powerful divine weapon puppets protecting him.

However, this young master Shen is indeed not to be regarded as an ordinary youth.

Ge Yefeng looked at Yan Dong with amusement.

His words were merely a test, but Young Master Shen's words directly cornered Yan Dong.

If he were to actually call upon some friends, it would be tantamount to standing behind this Young Master Shen, and they might just turn the capital of Lan Kingdom upside down.

Or they might find a reason to refuse, but it's clear they're cutting off their own future relationship.

Such a large family is not so easy to marry into.

Seeing that Yan Dong still seemed hesitant, Ge Yefeng suddenly spoke up: "Since Young Master Shen has offered to support your King Dong, then my Wanjuan Pavilion can also support King Dong this time. Including myself, the other two elders from Lan Kingdom can also come."

Within the Lan Kingdom, there are a total of three Spirit Realm experts at Wanjuan Pavilion!

Ge Yefeng's words made Yan Dong's eyes twitch again, and he glared at him fiercely.

But there was no time to hesitate.

All he could do for the moment was to put on a hearty smile: "Since Young Master Shen values ​​this so much, and Old Man Ge is so supportive, then this time, I'll have to have a good talk with those people in the capital."
