Chapter 1152: Riches and Risks
Lu Fan raised his head and glanced up, then hurriedly lowered his head for fear of annoying this one, and in his heart, he vaguely regretted that he shouldn’t have asked to come along.
Lu Fan’s original idea, not only want the human race all destroyed, he also want to see the human race twisted and perished, not so, it is difficult to eliminate the hatred in his heart.
But Lu Fan didn’t expect that the one who took over the mission would be a mid-heaven opening realm powerhouse, and there were still two of them.
The value of that bronze fragment shouldn’t have been so great, or else Liao Xia would have taken it in the first place instead of returning it to Lu Fan.
“Coming? How was the harvest when you went to the Guanghan Territory?” Nan Longtu casually let go of Lu Fan and turned his head to look at Xie Changxuan.
The two were considered old friends, having known each other for thousands of years, and if one of them took on a mission among the Heart Trick Division, if one of them found it difficult to complete, they would send a message to the other to ask if they were interested in joining together.
This mission to exterminate the murderous race had been hanging in the Heart Creeps Division for two months, and there was never any Heaven Opening Realm to take it.
In addition to the value of the bronze shard itself, the intelligence system of the Heart Creeps Division had already been informed that there was an early stage of the Heavenly Realm amongst the Human Race.
Moreover, this early stage of the Heaven Opening Realm of the Human Race is not simple, and should have assisted the Hyun Race to exterminate the nine Heaven Opening Realms of the Wumeng Race together.
The Hyun Clan felt the strong potential of the Human Clan’s Heaven Opening Realm, and even allied with them, and ceded the Wumeng Clan’s territory to the Human Clan.
From all the details of the Hyun Clan’s actions, one could tell that this Heaven Opening Realm of the Human Clan was by no means simple.
To offend the Human Race, and more likely the Hyun Race, for a bronze fragment that wasn’t really worth much, it would not be worth the loss.
According to normal circumstances, unless there was an Open Heaven Realm that was really short of money, this bounty mission would have been put on hold within the Heart Sleaze Division, and would have been automatically withdrawn after a year.
Nan Longtu saw this mission by chance, and initially didn’t put it on his mind, the ability of that bronze shard, the Heart Trick Division had experts who specialized in appraisal, and had already given specific value suggestions.
For Nan Longtu, who was already in the middle stage of the Heaven Opening Realm, this bronze shard was of little significance.
But the Black Stone Domain, the bronze fragment, was related to the present of the Yuan Swallowing Clan some time ago.
Coupled with the fact that the Witchmont Race’s frontier, which had recently become more popular, had been replaced with a new race that had moved in, all of the news combined together made Nan Longtu check out this human race in passing.
This check, Nan Longtu’s interest in turn grew stronger.
When the Devouring Yuan Race appeared in the world, Nan Longtu was caught up in other things, otherwise, with such a close proximity, he would probably have traveled.
As for whether or not it would be dangerous, having already taken on a mission in a place like the Heart Trickster Division, where would Nan Longtu care about whether it was dangerous or not.
As long as the benefits were sufficient and the strength of his side was enough, a mission like assassinating a late stage of the Heaven Opening Realm, Nan Longtu would dare to follow.
“There were a few late stage Open Heaven realm descenders in the Guanghan Territory, so I saw that there was no benefit to be gained and retreated early.” Xie Changxuan shook his head and took the jade slip handed over by Nan Longtu.
Xie Changxuan had received Nan Longtu’s message and had come here directly, not understanding the synopsis of the mission very well.
From this, it could also be seen that Xie Changxuan had quite a bit of trust in Nan Longtu, which had to do with their past experiences of working together.
“Black Stone Domain, Human Race?”
Xie Changxuan looked at the information amongst the jade slips, his brows slightly moving as he looked a little surprised.
“You’ve just been to the Blackstone Domain, do you have any impression of this human race?” Nan Longtu whispered.
The reason Nan Longtu would purposely call out to Xie Changxuan this time was because Xie Changxuan just happened to go to the Black Stone Domain when the Elemental Swallowing Race appeared in the world, and had gained quite a lot.
“Some impression, at that time, all the native races of the Blackstone Domain were under the control of the Witchmon Race, and at that time, when they attacked the Swallowing Yuan Race’s ruins, they even had the Blackstone Domain races at the front.” Xie Changxuan nodded.
To say how deep the impression was, that was naturally impossible, after all, they were all weak races that did not have the Heaven Opening Realm, how could they be placed in Xie Changxuan’s eyes.
At that time, it was only when he was in Meng City that he had slightly listened to the news about the Black Stone Domain, which naturally included the Human Race.
There were more than a dozen peaks of the Dao Fusion Realm, but they were all quite far away from the Heaven Opening Realm barrier, and if there were no accidents, almost no one would be able to break through to the Heaven Opening Realm.
Not only was this the case for the Human Race, it was the case for the entire Blackstone Domain race at that time.
It was only the Guile Race that was slightly stronger, with a Pseudo Heaven Opening Realm, but that was it.
Xie Changxuan turned his head to look at Lu Fan, a hint of a smile appeared on his face, just now, he felt that this Dao Fusion Realm in front of him looked a bit familiar, wasn’t it the Guile Race that had been accepted as a servant by Liao Xia.
Seeing Xie Changxuan looking over, Lu Fan revealed a pleasing smile.
“This Human Race suddenly has an additional Heaven Opening Realm, and is still able to be looked upon by the Hyun Race… Do you think that this Human Race called Chen Fei, could it be that he has gotten something good in the relics of the Swallowing Yuan Race?”
A light flashed in Nan Longtu’s eyes, the Swallowing Yuan Clan was an eighth ranked race back then.
Although Xie Changxuan came back last time and said that many of the Tun Yuan Race’s treasures had been consumed, and that the spirit materials possessed within were far less than expected.
But there could be accidents in everything, and there might just be something good that was gotten by this human race.
“Chen Fei, the Heaven Opening Realm?” Lu Fan was standing quietly on the side, listening to the two Nan Long Tu speak, not daring to say anything more.
But at this moment, when he heard that the Human Race had an additional Heaven Opening Realm, and that Heaven Opening Realm was still Chen Fei, Lu Fan’s state of mind was instantly disrupted.
No wonder there has been no Heaven Opening Realm among the Heart Creeps Division to take over their mission, it turns out that the Human Race already has their own Heaven Opening Realm.
What Lu Fan had commissioned at that time was an unrestricted mission, that is, no matter what the situation of the Human Race was, only by exterminating it could he get the Bronze Fragment.
I’m afraid that because of this, the Heart Trickster Division had never notified Lu Fan of the change in mission.
Lu Fan guessed something in his heart, and then paid more attention to the changes in the Human Race.
The other peaks of the human race’s Dao-Reification Realm had broken through to the Heaven Opening Realm, Lu Fan could barely accept it in his heart, but this Chen Fei, hadn’t he only broken through to the Dao-Reification Realm not many years ago!
The last time he was outside of the Swallowing Yuan Clan’s ruins, he was only lucky enough to break through to the middle stage of the Dao Melting Realm, so the distance between this and the Heaven Opening Realm was more than just a world of difference.
“Oh? Looks like our employer, has something to say?” Nan Longtu looked towards Lu Fan.
In the Xuan Ling Domain, there were many who commissioned tasks within the Heart Trick Division, but most of them were anonymous commissions, and those who had to watch their targets die like Lu Fan couldn’t be said to be absent, but it wasn’t much.
It was thought that in Lu Fan’s heart, the Human Race was still the same Sixth Order Race, and having the Heaven Opening Realm out there was enough to exterminate it.
“Reporting back to seniors, the late generation does know something about that Chen Fei.”
Lu Fan hurriedly arched his hand, and then told all he knew, one by one, about Chen Fei.
In the entire Black Stone Domain, if one were to say that the ones who knew the most about the Human Race and Chen Fei were undoubtedly the Ice Race and the Guile Race.
Thus, since Chen Fei had stepped into the Returning Ruins Realm, most of the things that had happened, Lu Fan had listed them out one by one. And with this list, Chen Fei’s growth process in the Returning Ruins Realm also became clear.
“This from the Sun and Moon Realm, to this Heaven Opening Realm, only took less than ten years?” Nan Longtu said with some surprise.
Both having cultivated step by step from the bottom, Nan Longtu naturally understood the amount of time each stage would take.
Nan Longtu’s natural talent was extremely strong, otherwise it would be impossible to cultivate to the middle stage of the Heaven Opening Realm. However, regarding Nan Longtu’s natural talent, from the Sun and Moon Realm to the Heaven Opening Realm, amongst other things, he had also spent more than a thousand years.
This was already considered very fast, but compared to Chen Fei’s less than ten years, there was absolutely no comparison.
Nan Longtu and Xie Changxuan exchanged a glance, this time of Chen Fei’s was definitely not normal.
“It seems that it wasn’t some treasure that was found within the remains of the Devouring Yuan Clan, it’s possible that this Chen Fei is a reincarnation of a great power that happened to be reincarnated into the human race as a race.” Xie Changxuan said in a deep voice.
A normal cultivation could never be this fast, and only the reincarnation of an equally abnormal great power could be like this.
“Even if it’s a great power reincarnated, this speed is a bit too fast, I’m afraid that it still carries the treasures of its previous life on its body, and that it has gained something within the ruins of the Devouring Yuan Clan.” Nan Longtu pondered for a moment and said.
Xie Changxuan nodded and did not object.
This would explain why the Hyun Clan had chosen to ally with the Human Clan, presumably because they saw Chen Fei, the reincarnation of a great power, as someone who could bring greater benefits to the Hyun Clan in the future.
Compared to that, the Witchmon Clan’s territory in the first place was nothing at all.
Lv Fan’s eyes widened slightly as he listened on the sidelines, Chen Fei is a great power reincarnated into the human race?
Then this early stage of the Heaven Opening Realm might not even be Chen Fei’s limit, and the other party might still continue to break through. If that was the case, how should he avenge the extermination of his clan?
“What are your thoughts?” Nan Longtu looked towards Xie Changxuan, his gaze fluctuating slightly.
“Reincarnation of a great power ah, it’s not like we haven’t killed them before!” Xie Changxuan suddenly laughed.
The ones who would take on missions in the Heart Trick Division were all those who were restless to stabilize their cultivation, speaking of a rich and powerful, the greater the risk, sometimes the greater the gain.
“Hahaha, well said, they are all just some old farts! Back then, that reincarnated mighty one let us get a lot of good things!” Nan Longtu laughed equally loudly.
Nan Longtu and Xie Changxuan were the same type of cultivators, not afraid of danger, but afraid of no benefits.
Early stage of the Heaven Opening Realm and reincarnation of a great power, what a great opportunity.
Other cultivators might be afraid of the reincarnated mighty one and what cards they might have in their hands, and once they broke out, the consequences would be hard to predict.
Nan Longtu and Xie Changxuan used to have this concern, but hundreds of years ago, they combined their efforts to kill an early stage of the Heaven Opening Realm that was reincarnated by a great power, and realized that there were indeed undercurrents, but nothing more than that!
These so-called reincarnations of great powers were forced to be reincarnated and reborn in the first place, and if they truly had deep underpinnings, they would definitely be cast amongst their own race.
This kind of chance cast into other races, can only be said to be desperate to do so.
Xie Changxuan glanced at Lu Fan next to him, killing directly might offend Liao Xia, but erasing a part of the other party’s memories was not much of a problem, and he thought that Liao Xia wouldn’t even bother to check his servant’s memory problems.
“Go!”
Nan Longtu grabbed Lv Fan’s body and flew towards the human Qiankun City, which was 100,000 li away, with Xie Changxuan following closely behind.
Inside Qiankun City, Chen Fei’s eyes opened all of a sudden and his figure appeared in the sky above Qiankun City, his eyes slightly narrowed as he looked ahead.
