Chapter 1076

Su Mengyao reported what had happened in the past year to Zi Chen.

There hadn't been any battles in the past year. The various large factions were already afraid of being beaten. The remaining time was spent discussing with people. Among them, the one who came the most was naturally the Perfect Body. Apart from the Perfect Body, the other factions also sent people over.

For example, the Wu family or the demons of the vast desolate lands. When their representatives came, they clearly expressed that if the Boundless Sect allowed them to bring people in, they were willing to pay some compensation for this matter and remember the Boundless Sect's favor.

Zi Chen listened patiently and asked, "When was the last time the Perfect Body came?"

Su Mengyao said, "A month ago. I reckon he'll be here soon."

Zi Chen nodded and said, "Alright then. We'll talk about it when the Perfect Body comes."

Su Mengyao asked, "What do you plan on doing with the other factions? Do you plan on informing them to discuss the remuneration?"

Zi Chen waved his hand and said, "There's no need. Although the Holy Burial Ground has appeared in the Boundless Sect this time, all the factions in the Heaven Martial Continent have seen it. We can't eat such a large piece of cake. After the negotiations are over, I'll inform them to come in."

Su Mengyao nodded and was speechless.

Three days later, the Perfect Body came again and finally saw Zi Chen. He was so aggrieved that he was about to cry.

Zi Chen invited the Perfect Body to the hall. The latter grumbled and poured out his grievances. Zi Chen listened quietly without interrupting him.

He only stopped when the Perfect Body was tired.

Zi Chen poured a cup of tea for the Perfect Body and asked, "I heard that you have become a lobbyist for those factions."

The Perfect Body took a sip of tea and said, "I can't be considered a lobbyist. I'm just following the orders of the higher-ups. I'm just a messenger."

Zi Chen raised his brows and said, "It's understandable that others don't know about our grudge, but you should know very well."

The Perfect Body put down the teacup, took a deep breath, and said seriously, "I naturally know about your grudges, but the commotion caused by the Holy Burial Ground is too great. They are also determined to enter. If you insist on stopping them, you need to send out many experts to guard against them. Even if you succeed in stopping them, you have to worry about the crazy revenge of these large factions after the rippling barrier disappears."

"The Five Elements Forces, the Five Great Families, the Sword Sect, the Overlord Body, and the Killing Sect. Good lord, Zi Chen has offended all the major forces. I'm afraid that the Wuji Sect will be swallowed up in an instant."

Zi Chen looked at the Perfect Body and said, "You are threatening me."

"Of course not. I'm thinking for you. Right now, the opportunity for both sides to reconcile is right in front of you. As long as you're willing, our grudges are nothing. Let's forget about our past grudges."

Zi Chen had a sarcastic look on his face. "It's nothing. Just write it off. Do you really believe their character?"

The Perfect Body shrugged and said, "In this situation, we have to believe it even if we don't want to. That's why …"

Without waiting for the Perfect Body to finish speaking, Zi Chen said, "That's why I want to use this opportunity to demand an exorbitant price. I want to make them feel heartache."

The Perfect Body smiled and didn't say a word, but it was clearly a tacit agreement.

Zi Chen pondered for a moment as he pondered over what compensation he should ask for. Now, the Wuji Sect didn't lack resources, so resources were useless. Without experts, he didn't dare take what others gave him. He didn't lack mystic manuals, and he had enough technique legacies.

After thinking for a long time, Zi Chen finally said, "The compensation is Soul Spirit Weapons. Two for each family."

"Two." The Perfect Body's eyes suddenly widened.

"Why? You can't accept that?" Zi Chen frowned.

The Perfect Body knew that Zi Chen had misunderstood and immediately explained, "From the looks of it, you still don't know the effects of the Holy Burial Ground on those factions. According to the records, there are many techniques and divine powers inside. Apart from that, there are also many Soul Spirit Weapons. They will give you four, much less two."

Zi Chen's brows didn't relax because of this. He said, "I've been to the Holy Burial Ground once. There aren't any Soul Spirit Weapons, not even Alchemy Weapons."

"The secret of the Holy Burial Ground isn't something you can figure out just by entering once. Now that it has taken the initiative to appear in the world and caused such a huge commotion, even a ghost wouldn't believe that there's nothing good inside. Don't worry and boldly ask for it. Four for each family. They probably won't hesitate. By the way, let me tell you in advance. It's four Soul Spirit Weapons, not a peak Soul Spirit Weapon."

Peak Soul Spirit Weapons were the limit of what a family could nurture. They were truly good items. Nurturing one would take at least a thousand years, and there definitely wouldn't be many of them. Zi Chen understood how precious such items were, so he naturally guessed that those factions wouldn't give them that good.

The two of them discussed and finally decided on four for each family.

After the Perfect Body returned, the major factions came to discuss this matter. The discussion didn't seem to go smoothly, but they had achieved the desired outcome.

"Do you want to send these items over yourself or do you want me to send them over?" asked the Perfect Body.

The Earth Essence realm experts from the major factions pondered for a moment before finally saying, "Young friend, I'll have to trouble you to send them over."

If they were to let their people send them over, it was unknown what kind of conflict would arise between the two parties. It was better to let the Perfect Body send them over.

As for four Soul Spirit Weapons, it was equivalent to buying a Dao.

After hearing that the Holy Burial Ground would soon open, the efficiency of the major factions became very fast. In just three days, each of them had sent four Soul Spirit Weapons.

The Perfect Body didn't waste any time. After taking the Soul Spirit Weapons, he threatened to get the Ancient race to quickly arrange for people to head to the Barbarian Land. As for these factions, there was no need to remind them. Their people had probably finished preparing a year ago.

A few days later, the Perfect Body arrived at the Boundless Sect and met Zi Chen in the hall.

"Here, four for each family. Not a single one is missing. The quality isn't bad either." The Perfect Body took out a spirit ring and with a shake of his hand, the spirit ring flew towards Zi Chen.

A blue folding fan suddenly appeared in Zi Chen's hand. With a tap of the fan's tip, the spirit ring flew towards the Perfect Body. Zi Chen said, "Choose one first."

Seeing the folding fan that should have belonged to him land in Zi Chen's hand, the Perfect Body felt uncomfortable. Furthermore, seeing that Zi Chen was extremely satisfied with the folding fan, he naturally couldn't ask for it. Helpless, he could only choose one from the spirit ring.

At the late-stage Human Essence realm, the Perfect Body had his own Soul Spirit Weapon. If he nurtured it again, he probably wouldn't have the time or experience. Therefore, he chose a Soul Spirit Weapon for fun at most. Just like the folding fan, it was to show off his unparalleled bearing.

After receiving the spirit ring, Zi Chen called Wang Shan over. At the same time, he gestured for him to inform the other factions that the barbarian lands would be opened to them. The Holy Burial Ground would also be open to them.

Wang Shan said curiously, "Brother-in-law, why don't we ask them for some remuneration? You have to know that their factions aren't small. They have plenty of good things in their hands."

Zi Chen said with a smile, "We can't offend all the large and small factions in the Tianwu Continent, right?"

For some reason, Zi Chen had a bad feeling about the opening of the Holy Burial Ground. This bad feeling wasn't groundless. It was based on the last time he entered. That place was very mysterious. Zi Chen had a nagging feeling that the opening wasn't simple.

Soon, Wang Shan released the news. The Boundless Sect was willing to share the Holy Burial Ground for free. All the factions were extremely surprised. Following that, there was an uproar.

Although they had guessed that the Boundless Sect wouldn't dare to offend all the factions in the continent and would definitely open the Holy Burial Ground for them, in their hearts, this kind of openness came with a certain price. And because of this price, the newly established Boundless Sect would once again gain a large amount of income.

However, they hadn't expected that Zi Chen wouldn't ask for any remuneration at all. This boldness caused many factions to be moved.

It had to be known that if there was an opportunity to ask for a spirit weapon, they would agree. Zi Chen's Boundless Sect would receive dozens of spirit weapons before they even entered the Holy Burial Ground. However, Zi Chen had opened it up for free.

Everyone had witnessed Zi Chen's boldness. At the same time, they couldn't help but sigh. As expected of an existence that dared to challenge the overlords. This kind of wisdom and decisiveness far surpassed ordinary people.

As the Holy Burial Ground was about to open, Zi Chen had someone call out everyone who had been in seclusion. After more than a year of seclusion, and with the Boundless Sect providing them with many resources, everyone had made great progress.

Zhang Haotian's realm had broken through to the late-stage of the Human Primordial Realm. Lv Peng's cultivation hadn't improved much, only reaching the mid-stage of the Human Primordial Realm.

The Devil Ape, Longhu, and the others were only one step away from the late-stage. Wang Xian 'er and the others had also reached the peak of the mid-stage.

Zi Chen asked everyone to be prepared. As soon as the Holy Burial Ground opened, they would enter it.

As the news spread, people from various factions also entered the Barbarian Land and went straight to the Holy Burial Ground.

However, they were still at the periphery of the Holy Burial Ground. Before the power of laws dissipated naturally, there was still a large army of strange beasts guarding there.

Zi Chen left the main hall and went to one of the few mountains of the Boundless Sect. The most skilled blacksmiths of the Boundless Sect were gathered there.

After passing down many blacksmithing skills, although the Boundless Sect's blacksmithing skills didn't dare to say that they had reached the peak, they had reached a very high level.

During this period, they had perfectly forged more than ten spirit weapons.

Zi Chen came here to refine the pinnacle finger gauntlet and the folding fan that he had obtained from the Tyrant Body.

He still had some high-quality Thunder Soul Crystals on him. Rather than reforging them, it was better to add these things to the existing spirit weapons and refine them again.

Moreover, the spirit power in the spirit weapons would increase a little. This was also one of the ways to upgrade spirit weapons besides nourishing them.

Because the Sect Master wanted to refine the weapons, all the founding elders came. Moreover, all of them were very careful. Before the refinement, they were fully prepared.

Next, it was a round of melting. After that, they used blacksmithing skills to add various array patterns. Then, they added blood essence, solidified it, and honed it.

It was simple to say, but it was more troublesome to refine. Zi Chen personally guided them. After modifying the finger gauntlet, it took seven days.

Next, they spent a few more days to refine the folding fan. The original folding fan emitted a luster, but now there were streaks of lightning on it. When the folding fan opened, a ferocious and mighty thunder dragon could be seen. It was vivid.
