Chapter 467: Risking My Life

Hearing Master Feng’s smug voice from outside the formation, Jiang Yun calmly opened his mouth and took a deep breath.

Suddenly, as he breathed in, his previously shrunken body expanded instantly, returning to its original form.

Master Feng’s guess was correct – what Jiang Yun used for the ritual was his own flesh.

Because he had a physical body, he could borrow the power of it to restore his body, only consuming the flesh of the physical body.

With Jiang Yun’s main body restored, his hands began to form intricate hand seals again, striking the sky forcefully, "Second ritual!"

Although the first ritual allowed him to move the stone tablet, he performed a second ritual to break the formation quickly.

This time, his just restored body instantly sunken again, even more terrifying than before, looking like a skeleton with skin pulled over bones, extremely weak.

But suddenly, a huge storm rose up around him, fiercely crashing into the nine black mountains with a deafening roar.

This was his wild surge of power once again, reaching the peak of the ninth level of strength in the Sky Reaching Realm.

Master Feng clearly felt the change in Jiang Yun’s energy, his look of pride turning into shock.

"Ssss!"

Jiang Yun took another deep breath, his thinning body slowly starting to recover, albeit at a slower pace, gradually returning to its original state.

However, his physical and spiritual body had turned into a skeleton-like form, sitting cross-legged in the Mang Mountains, needing time to recover.

This was the terror of the Nine Heavenly Offerings.

While giving Jiang Yun immense strength for a short period, the sacrifice could only be done twice despite the strong physical and spiritual body.

Of course, if Jiang Yun wanted to perform the sacrifice a third time, the offering would have to be his own flesh!

But fortunately, two offerings to the heavens are enough!

Jiang Yun clenched his fist tightly and fiercely smashed a black mountain again.

"Boom!"

Following the loud noise in the formation, Master Feng suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood, his face turning extremely pale in an instant.

Without waiting for Jiang Yun to completely break through the formation, he raised his hand, and the nine stone tablets immediately rose from the ground and returned to his body in an instant.

If Jiang Yun were to truly shatter any of the mountains, it would be like destroying one of his hidden realms, causing his strength to plummet and him to be seriously injured.

Master Feng was unwilling to accept such a price no matter what.

Looking at Jiang Yun, who had already escaped and was approaching him, Master Feng straightforwardly said, "I give up! I surrender!"

Jiang Yun’s advancing steps suddenly paused, a rare look of astonishment flashing across his face.

Actually, right now, if we only talk about their level, they are very similar. If it was Jiang Yun instead, he would definitely give his all in a battle with the other person.

But he truly did not expect that Master Feng would be so straightforward about it.

If you can’t win, just admit defeat right away!

Before Jiang Yun could respond, Master Feng continued, "Tell me, what kind of price do I need to pay to save my own life?"

Jiang Yun was speechless!

He had been through countless battles big and small, and though he had encountered those who begged for mercy and surrendered, encountering someone like Master Feng who was calm and willing to bargain for his life as if trading goods was truly a first.

"Master Jiang, even though there is only the Xia family as a Daoist clan in The Barbaric Southern Land, there are three major families that could also join the ranks of the Daoist clans."

"Apart from the Yu family to which Young Master belongs, the Feng family where Master Feng is from is one of them."

Just then, Li Yue’s voice suddenly whispered in Jiang Yun’s ear, and after listening, Jiang Yun nodded calmly.

Obviously, Li Yue was suggesting to himself at this moment to be as forgiving as possible towards Master Feng, as he told himself about the situation of the Feng family.

Even though Jiang Yun originally planned to kill Master Feng directly and then use soul-searching methods to uncover the secrets about the Feng family’s so-called monument.

But now, upon hearing Li Yue’s message, he decided to accept Li Yue’s suggestion.

After all, since Jiang Yun was not fully developed yet, offending the families within The Land of a Hundred Families might not be a big deal, but offending the powerful families in The Barbaric Southern Land would be unwise.

However, even if he forgave, it couldn’t be too easy.

Jiang Yun, with a neutral face, said, "Then tell me, what price can you offer to make me spare you?"

"Spiritual stones? Elixirs? Magical tools?"

Master Feng would glance at Jiang Yun after saying each word.

Obviously, Jiang Yun showed no interest in these items. With no other choice, he gritted his teeth and said, "As long as you spare me, I can make a decision to let you join my Feng family and have a chance to observe the monument!"

Master Feng finally realized that the other person was just as skilled in formations as himself, so he quickly offered his own life in exchange for a favor.

The Formation Stele, which was the greatest treasure of the Feng family and held the secrets of formations, was incredibly attractive to any cultivator practicing formations.

This time, Master Feng finally spoke out what was on Jiang Yun’s mind!

Even without Bai Ze telling him about the similarities between the Formation Stele and the place where they were trapped in the Demon Refining Pen, Jiang Yun was very interested in that black stone tablet.

Although he only caught a glimpse just now, he knew that the intricate runes carved on it were extremely profound.

Moreover, being in the Ancient Grand Desolate World, the two formations that had been broken earlier and the formations he had understood from Xue Mucheng were significantly different.

If he could observe the Feng family’s Formation Stele, it would definitely enhance his understanding of formations.

However, he believed that the precious Formation Stele would not be shown to outsiders easily by the Feng family, similar to how the Grand Medicine Sect preserved their heritage.

But unexpectedly, the Feng family was surprisingly generous.

When Jiang Yun saw a slight change in Master Feng’s expression, Master Feng let out a sigh of relief, thinking to himself that his life was finally saved.

However, before Master Feng could finish his sigh, Jiang Yun suddenly shook his head and said, "Not enough!"

"Not enough?"

Master Feng was almost choked by his own breath, staring at Jiang Yun in disbelief and saying, "Do you know that even the Xia family would have to pay a great price to enter my Feng family to observe the stone tablet? I’m offering you a chance to observe it for free, and you still think it’s not enough?"

"For free?"

Jiang Yun, echoing Master Feng’s tone, asked, "Do you believe that your life is only worth one observation of the stone tablet?"

Jiang Yun really felt it was not enough.

Because he had conducted two sacrifices to break the opponent’s nine stone tablet formation, his physical and spiritual bodies were temporarily unable to be used.

This price couldn’t be offset by just observing the stone tablet once!

Master Feng was speechless, and what Jiang Yun said was correct.

Although the monument was a priceless treasure of the family, his own life was also priceless. So, he could only reluctantly ask, "What else do you want?"

In fact, Jiang Yun didn’t know what he wanted either.

Because besides knowing that they were skilled in formations, he knew nothing about the Feng family. So, he decided to let them make their own conditions. As long as he was satisfied, he would agree.

Just as Jiang Yun was about to speak, he suddenly heard a woman’s voice beside him saying, "He’s so clueless, he wants the Nine Stele Token of the Feng family!"
