Mo Wen spoke exaggeratedly, his words aimed directly at the Five Beasts Sect. The meaning of his words caused Liu Tong and the elder dressed in purple to be so scared that they turned pale. They were unable to speak for a long while.

“If you are dissatisfied, you can find the seniors of the sect.” It wasn’t that no one in the Green Ancient Mystery Dimension dared to speak to Yin Banshuang like that, but a youth shouldn’t be one of them, and an unknown youth at that.

Liu Tong and the elder dressed in purple closed their mouths, not daring to say another word. Both of them could not get a grasp of the current situation. If the youth was not a reckless lunatic, then he was a powerhouse with real abilities.

“We don’t need to go to the extent of finding the seniors of the sect. It is just a small dispute. Our Five Beasts Sect seems to have no quarrel with you. Must you go so far?” Yin Banshuang slightly narrowed her eyes. Her tone had lost its previous arrogance.

Mo Wen raised his eyebrows. It seemed that this woman wanted to remedy the situation. If that was so, wouldn’t all his previous efforts be wasted?

“A mere Tong Luo Sect should not find it worthwhile to offend you. What is your goal, just speak out. You don’t have to run in circles around me. Unless you are hell-bent on having our Five Beasts Sect as an enemy, the rest should be easily discussed.”

Mo Wen had not spoken yet when Yin Banshuang cut him off. With her intelligence, she realized that this youth’s goal was not simply to find the Tong Luo Sect and claim compensation. He surely had some other goal in mind. As long as it was not to go against the Five Beasts Sect, it could easily be discussed.

“Since when have you become so easy to talk to?” Mo Wen gave Yin Banshuang a surprised look. She did not seem to be a person who was easy to talk to. With the Five Beasts Sect behind her, by right, she should also not be afraid of him.

“Do you intend to enter the Tan Zi Beast Lair?” Yin Banshuang asked.

“If so, what about it?”

“Then we can make a deal, or in other words, cooperate.” Yin Banshuang shook her flowing hair as she looked at Mo Wen, the corner of her mouth curling into a smile.

“Cooperate? What do you mean?” Mo Wen looked strangely at Yin Banshuang, not knowing what this woman had up her sleeve. Just before this, they had been throwing punches and kicks at each other, and now she was actually saying that she wanted to cooperate with him!

“Maybe we can speak elsewhere.” Yin Banshuang glanced at Mo Wen. Then, with a flash of her silhouette, she flew upwards and headed further into the dense forest.

Mo Wen pondered for a moment, then flew up and followed her. In the blink of an eye, he had disappeared from the hill where Tong Luo Sect was.

The Tong Luo Sect’s two deputy sect leaders looked at each other. Only after a long while, did they speak. “He... will he be back?” Liu Tong asked in a dry voice.

Experiencing the youth’s ability had terrified him. Especially now that even Yin Banshuang was wary of him, if the youth returned and found trouble with their Tong Luo Sect, it would be very difficult for them to respond.

In a desolate and uninhabited forest, two people stood on top of the crown of a towering tree facing each other.

“Say what you have to say.” Mo Wen said plainly. He really wanted to know why this woman wanted to speak to him alone.

“There is treasure in the Tan Zi Beast Lair that is very important to me. Of course, it is also very beneficial for you. However, only I know where it is. But with just my own ability, I am unable to obtain the treasure,” Yin Banshuang said in a low voice as she stared Mo Wen in the eyes.

“That treasure is not the spiritual fire, is it?” The corner of Mo Wen’s mouth curled up.

“Naturally, it is not the spiritual fire. I know my limitations. The spiritual fire is not something I can touch,” Yin Banshuang said plainly. She was the chief disciple of the Five Beasts Sect and naturally knew far more than ordinary people did. Based on what she knew, the appearance of the spiritual fire this time drew out quite a few legendary senior experts. This time, even the Five Beasts Sect had the intention of withdrawing from contesting for the spiritual fire.

However, against the temptation of the spiritual fire, most likely no one wanted to give up. The sect must have made preparations, but these preparations did not include her, or it should be said that she was not qualified to know about it.

“What is it?” Mo Wen said, his tone bearing no sense of curiosity. The Tan Zi Beast Lair had many treasures inside. Right now, aside from the spiritual fire, he was not interested in anything else.

“Right now, I cannot tell you yet. But, if you are willing to follow me, you will naturally know. Rest assured, I will not ill treat you or deny you your benefits,” Yin Banshuang said.

“You mean to say that you wish to cooperate with me and join forces to obtain the treasure?” Mo Wen said with a faint smile.

“That’s right. That is exactly what I mean.” Yin Banshuang nodded her head. Alone, she did not have much confidence, or rather she had no confidence at all. But she did not want to find other members of the sect to help her. It was because the only people who could help her were the few elders in the Five Beasts Sect. With them around, when they actually obtained the treasure, it would most likely not go as she would want it.

With such limitations, she instead did not want to ask the strong practitioners of the Five Beasts Sect for help. With her status in the Five Beast Sect, the sect would certainly not mistreat her, but asking them for assistance would mean that she would be unable to maximize the benefits for herself.

This youth Mo Wen could be said to be her most suitable cooperating partner. His soul attack had the ability to threaten an intermediate stage Golden Elixir realm ancient martial art practitioner. If he joined forces with her, when they encountered intermediate stage Golden Elixir realm ancient martial art practitioners, they could put up a fight.

Also, the lethality of the soul attack against monstrous beasts was far superior to its deadliness against human ancient martial art practitioners. Before the monstrous beasts became monsters, their spiritual knowledge was not high. Their resistance against soul attacks on average was lower than that of a human ancient martial art practitioner. A soul attack that could affect a human intermediate stage Golden Elixir realm ancient martial art practitioner, if used on a monstrous beast, could even affect a later stage seventh rank monstrous beast.

The most important point was that this youth was alone. Cooperating with one person was the most suitable.

“I’m sorry. I am not interested.” Mo Wen shook his head. Right now, he was only concerned with the spiritual fire. Once he obtained the spiritual fire, he could cultivate a Spiritless Clean Fire. That was a flame that could threaten an immortal cultivator. What treasure could compare with a Spiritless Clean Fire?

Under normal circumstances, if he wanted to cultivate a Spiritless Clean Fire, it would probably take decades. That amount of time for him was far too long.

“If I told you that this treasure could make you break through from the beginning stage Golden Elixir realm to the intermediate stage Golden Elixir realm, would you be interested?” Yin Banshuang asked expressionlessly.

She believed that this temptation was absolutely irresistible for any ancient martial art practitioner. Once their cultivation reached the Golden Elixir realm, improving was far more difficult than before. There were many beginning stage Golden Elixir realm ancient martial art practitioners in the Green Ancient Mystery Dimension, but those who had intermediate stage Golden Elixir realm cultivation were very, very few. Every one of them could become the supreme sect leader of a super sect.

As for the later stage Golden Elixir realm, it could not be said that there were none, but they were certainly rare existences that could be counted on one hand.

To step into the intermediate stage Golden Elixir realm from the beginning stage Golden Elixir realm, it meant that one had stepped towards the true pinnacle. Who could reject such a temptation? Even Yin Banshuang herself could not reject it.

“How can I believe you?” A strange look flashed in Mo Wen’s eyes. Something that allowed a beginning stage Golden Elixir realm ancient martial art practitioner to break through to the intermediate stage Golden Elixir realm, if what this woman said was true, would most likely not be any ordinary treasure.

His current problem was that his cultivation was too low. He would be interested in anything that could swiftly increase his cultivation.

“If you go with me, then you can naturally know the whole story. If I lied to you, wouldn’t that be slapping myself in the face? So, how about it? With your ability, you aren’t afraid of going with me, are you?” Yin Banshuang looked at Mo Wen playfully, and teasingly said, “Rest assured, I will not eat you up.”

The reason why she had invited Mo Wen to cooperate was mainly that there was the possibility of this youth agreeing to work with her. If it was an ordinary person, even a beginning stage Golden Elixir realm ancient martial art practitioner, they would most likely not dare to cooperate with her.

After all, in the Tan Zi Beast Lair, who could guarantee what happened? When they found the treasure, who knew whether someone would try to get greedy or whether they would kill each other?

So the people who cooperated with her needed to not be afraid of her and not be worried that she would turn on them. Vice versa, Yin Banshuang would also not need to worry about Mo Wen. She was not the two Tong Luo Sect deputy sect leaders. She would not be scared speechless by Mo Wen’s soul attack. She could naturally see through Mo Wen’s flaws.

If she did not count the soul attack, this youth’s ability was at most equal to a beginning stage Golden Elixir realm ancient martial art practitioner. It was not even quite there. A slightly stronger beginning stage Golden Elixir realm ancient martial art practitioner would most probably be stronger than him.

This was why Yin Banshuang dared to cooperate with Mo Wen. Otherwise, she would not even dare to try and find him.

“This treasure you speak of, how long will it take to obtain it?” Mo Wen said after pondering the matter for a moment. If it was too much trouble and delayed him from seizing the spiritual fire, then he would not agree.

“Could it be that you are still thinking of seizing the spiritual fire?” Yin Banshuang looked uncomprehendingly at Mo Wen. She was smart enough to understand his intentions in an instant. Could it be that this youth intended to try and win the spiritual fire?

The gaze that she gave Mo Wen immediately became strange. She did not know whether this youth was fearless due to ignorance, or whether he truly had big dreams and big ambitions. How was the spiritual fire something that people of their level could contest for? For this youth to dare to have such a thought alone meant he was truly a piece of work.

“If the delay is too long, sorry, but I cannot follow you.” Mo Wen was indifferent about it. He could accompany this woman to take a look, but if it delayed him too long, then he could also immediately give it up.

“Don’t worry, if all goes well, it won’t take long. As for the spiritual fire... Hmm, it has most probably reached the seventh level. You can enter the seventh level of the Tan Zi Beast Lair and then reconsider the matter of contesting for the spiritual fire.” Yin Banshuang smiled without thinking too much of it. This youth had some gall. Not to mention that the spiritual fire was still coveted by unknown strong practitioners, even a single spiritual fire would most probably not be an existence that he could deal with.

Based on what she knew, after the spiritual fire was disturbed, it delved deeper into the Tan Zi Beast Lair with a mysterious strong practitioner chasing behind. In the amount of time that had passed, it would at least have reached the sixth level of the Tan Zi Beast Lair. It was hard to say whether a beginning stage Golden Elixir realm ancient martial art practitioner could reach the sixth level, let alone seize the spiritual fire.

“Since that is so, then I will follow you for a trip.” Upon hearing this, Mo Wen nodded his head. He knew that seizing the spiritual fire would not be easy. If he could increase his cultivation slightly before going after the spiritual fire, maybe it could greatly increase the possibility of him obtaining it.
