"It's just that with your current cultivation level, you can only stimulate the basic power of the Ring of the Snake. If you want to truly exert its power, you must at least be at the level of a real person with the Tao."
After hearing what Bei Gongxian said, Chen Xuan couldn't help but interrupt: "What good is a magic weapon that can only be used after I advance to the Hedao stage?"
"Haha, our future Lord Saint is really greedy."
Bei Gongxian was not angry because of Chen Xuan's words, but continued to smile and said, "This Snake Ring alone is not comparable to ordinary magic weapons. You will slowly discover its value in the future; and The second benefit is that after you leave the secret realm, you can leave the Northern Wilderness with me, which means that I will continue to provide you with substantial protection until your cultivation is improved enough to protect yourself."
"Are these two benefits the only thing?"
Chen Xuan could tell that Bei Gongxian was very confident in his own strength and felt that one person could protect the new holy king who was regarded as a formidable enemy by the Taoist sects of the Mountain and Sea Realm.
Chen Xuan would not question Bei Gongxian's strength. After all, Bei Gongxian's clone could easily kill an ancient high-level demon.
But for Chen Xuan himself, he has no plans to leave Beihuang for the time being, and currently not many people in Beihuang know that he has obtained the stigmata.
So Chen Xuan is not very interested in these two benefits.
Seeing that Chen Xuan was not tempted by the benefits he said, Bei Gongxian finally felt a sense of surprise in his heart.
"What other benefits do you want, please tell me."
When Chen Xuan heard what Bei Gongxian said, his heart suddenly moved, and a trace of fire climbed into his heart.
"You just said that there are only three things left in the ancient earth immortal's storage bag, namely the ancient teleportation formation diagram, the formation formation book and the puppet secret technique. These are three things, and I want to make a copy of them all. "
Chen Xuan did not mention the formation map separately in order to avoid making Bei Gongxian suspicious, so he deliberately spoke loudly.
Bei Gongxian was stunned for a moment, then sneered and said: "Do you think you can really use these three things if you get them?
Although you are the new Saint King and your cultivation progress is faster than that of any monk in the world of mountains and seas, you still cannot break through to the stage of combining the Tao in a short time. And these three things, like the Ring of the Tang Snake, must be combined with the Tao. It’s the real-person level that really makes a difference.”
"You don't have to worry about whether I need it more now. Anyway, this is the condition for me to join your star. Other than that, I have no other requirements."
Chen Xuan used retreat as advance and looked decisive.
This time it was Bei Gongxian's turn to be speechless.
He has always firmly believed in his heart that Chen Xuan's value to Xing Luo is immeasurable.
That's why he talked to Chen Xuan in such a nice voice.
The conditions proposed by Chen Xuan now are almost the limit of what Bei Gongxian can tolerate.
In order for Xingluo to have a new Holy Lord of the Demon Sect, Bei Gongxian finally decided to take a gamble: "Okay, I will give you the three things and the Ring of the Snake, but you have to fight the Snake in front of me. You need to perform a blood recognition ceremony with the ring, so that you can truly join the Star Luo. In the future, I can also use the ring of the snake to find your location."
“Recognize the Lord by shedding blood?”
Chen Xuan frowned slightly, he was always very cautious about this kind of thing.
Who knows whether there will be some unforeseen dangers in confessing the Lord of the Snake Ring by shedding blood?
Especially since he is only at the Nascent Soul stage now, if Bei Gongxian wants to use a ring magic weapon to trap him, it will be difficult for him to detect it.
Bei Gongxian saw Chen Xuan's concerns and immediately explained patiently: "Don't worry, letting the Snake Ring drip blood to identify its owner will not cause any harm to you, it will just generate a beacon in your body. This beacon is only to provide convenience for all members of Xingluo to communicate with each other, and during the process of the blood recognition ceremony, once you notice something is wrong, you can immediately activate the power of the stigmata to interrupt the ceremony. "
When Chen Xuan heard what Bei Gongxian said, he hesitated for a moment and took the Snake Ring.
He was worried about Bei Gongxian, but he still had great confidence in the power of the stigmata.
The demonic consciousness of the ancient high-level demons was instantly wiped out by the flames of the stigmata, and this was only a small and basic part of the power of the stigmata.
So Chen Xuan followed the most common blood-recognition ceremony in the world of mountains and seas, and dropped a drop of blood essence onto the Ring of the Snake. A Taoist mark emitting white light immediately appeared in his Dantian. This is the so-called Taoist sign.
Sensing that he had established a mental connection with the Ring of the Snake, which meant that the ring was completely in his hands, Chen Xuan stopped being suspicious and put the ring away.
"No one will recognize you even if you wear it on your hand."
Bei Gongxian smiled and joked, then took out an ancient teleportation formation diagram, a formation law book and a puppet refining secret technique, and then used three jade books specifically for reproducing the techniques to make copies of them.
Chen Xuan was secretly surprised when he saw it. He didn't expect that Bei Gongxian's method of re-engraving the secret books of the exercises was so miraculous, and the three jade volumes seemed to be more advanced than those of the major sects in the Shanhai Realm.
You must know that high-level skills cannot be reproduced in general, let alone the classics written by Earth Immortals. Only a person like Bei Gongxian who has reached the heavens can reproduce them so easily.
However, the copying process still took nearly an hour.
Seeing that Bei Gongxian's aura was getting weaker and weaker, Chen Xuan immediately asked: "Is your clone's mana almost exhausted?
I have some ancient spiritual wine here that can restore mana. Do you need it?" "No."
The moment Bei Gongxian said these words, a colorful spiritual light suddenly appeared in the void above and enveloped his entire body.
"This is?"
Chen Xuan couldn't help but have a look of surprise in his eyes.
Bei Gongxian smiled faintly: "Don't worry. In fact, after I unlocked the cultivation ban, I have been contending with the laws of the secret realm. Now my clone can't hold it anymore. If I don't take over the power of movement generated by this secret law, I will The clone will be consumed in vain in the secret realm. Before I am removed, do you have any questions to ask?"
Chen Xuan thought to himself, "So that's it. Bei Gongxian has upgraded his avatar's cultivation to the Hedao stage, and he can actually contend with the laws of the secret realm for so long. It's already very impressive."
After receiving the three jade albums from Bei Gongxian, Chen Xuan thought for a moment and asked: "Are there thirteen Star Luo Rings in total?
Who was the forger of these rings?”
The reason why he asked this question was because Chen Xuan thought about whether the Dragon Emperor's Ring he had obtained before was included in the Thirteen Star Luo Rings. If so, it was the "Ziwei Ring" that Bei Gongxian just said. Emperor Star Ring".
"The Star Luo Ring is so ancient that even I don't know who forged these rings. It's just that when we Xing Luo got them, we found that these rings contain the magical power of the stars, so we used the stars to Naming rings, as to how many there are, this may be a question that will never be answered!”
After Bei Gongxian said these words, his whole person disappeared without a trace in an instant under the shroud of colorful spiritual light. He had obviously been moved outside the secret realm.
