The two alchemists from Sihong Academy, Han Shu and Liang Han, were also dumbfounded.
There was a certain chance that the medicinal mink could help them find better quality spiritual plants, but it couldn’t help them break the restriction. They still needed to do it themselves.
Compared to the other party, the medicinal mink’s superiority in finding spiritual plants seemed to be of little value at this moment.
During the time they took to break the restriction, these people could open a dozen or more restrictions. No matter how small the chance, they could always find more spiritual plants. There would always be one or two that were of good quality.
Han Shu was envious, and Liang Han was immediately jealous. How could these two people be so lucky? If it took longer, wouldn’t all the plants in the spiritual plants garden be harvested by them?
But Liang Han was so arrogant that he would never be able to ask for help as shamelessly as Gong Yuming.
The moment he bit his lip, the loyal Wei Fan beside him said very discerningly, “Junior Brother, let me go to him for help. It is their luck to be able to help an alchemist with a great future.”
Liang Han nodded in a reserved manner when he heard this. “That’s fine. If I can get help from that fellow Daoist, I will be willing to help them refine ten furnaces of pills.”
Han Shu sneered in her heart when she heard this. Liang Han was really interesting. He obviously wanted to ask someone for help, but he used this tone of showing charity.
Ten furnaces of pills from a second-grade alchemist? She wasn’t optimistic.
It was because the formation master clearly wasn’t far from the essence liquid realm. Would he need second-grade pills? It would be similar for third and fourth-grade alchemists.
The others were a bit surprised when they heard the conversation between the two people. The key point was that Wei Fan really went to Bai Qiaomo like Bai Qiaomo would definitely agree.
Was he willing to agree?
He might agree if the fifth-grade alchemist behind Liang Han took action, but it was just a second or third-grade alchemist. The value of the ten furnaces of pills wasn’t great because there was the possibility of a fifth-grade spiritual plant here.
Previously, a cultivator brought out a sixth-grade spiritual plant from here. This made the spiritual plant garden in this valley even more valuable.
But this was only one time. It wasn’t known if there would be another sixth-grade spiritual plant this time.
Feng Jinghuai frowned. He had known Feng Ming and Bai Qiaomo’s temperament for a long time. It would be strange if Feng Ming would agree to this condition.
This was especially the case for someone who made demands in such a tone. It would be great if Feng Ming didn’t immediately taunt him back.
Feng Jinghuai had a headache. His cousin Feng Ming had offended Wu Yingyan and the Wu family before entering the secret realm. Then he offended the Kunyuan Sect after entering the secret realm.
If he offended Sihong Academy now, how would he be able to walk outside in the future?
Bai Qiaomo didn’t stop him at all. Did he want to let Feng Ming offend all the forces?
Feng Ming was bargaining with Gong Yuming and Bai Qiaomo didn’t waste the time to open the restriction on the spiritual grass. It was because Feng Ming just stayed on the side and didn’t help much.
Once Bai Qiaomo showed his hand, he immediately became the focus of attention in the entire valley. All eyes were focused on him at this moment.
It was doubtful if Bai Qiaomo could leave the Xuanyue Secret Realm safely if any rare-grade spiritual plants were discovered.
It was great that Gong Yuming came here at this time. The crisis could be alleviated with his help sharing everyone’s attention.
But Feng Ming couldn’t let Gong Yuming reap so many benefits for nothing. He wanted Bai Qiaomo to help but how could Bai Qiaomo do it without any compensation?
Thus, the two of them went back and forth in front of other cultivators.
Feng Ming refused to give an inch. He wanted to set a price for Bai Qiaomo opening the restriction once and how much additional reward would be required if a high-grade spiritual herb was obtained. Many cultivators were a bit tempted when they heard this.
It was worth paying a bit more if they could get high-grade spiritual plants. After all, this price was far from being enough to buy such high-grade spiritual plants outside. In other words, they were still getting it for cheap.
They were waiting for Feng Ming and Gong Yuming to finish discussing the price.
If Gong Yuming didn’t understand Feng Ming’s intention at first, there was nothing he didn’t understand once Feng Ming bargained with him. He even cooperated with Feng Ming.
In any case, he wasn’t taking the high-grade spiritual plants for himself but for the family. The price would also be paid by the family. If he brought back the spiritual plants and contributed to the family, the family would reward him.
Not only would there be no loss for him, but there would also be benefits. Of course, he was happy to cooperate.
Gong Yuming saw the tempted expressions of other cultivators out of the corner of his eye. He secretly thought that Feng Ming was really cunning. He gritted his teeth and said, “Okay, let’s agree on this price and not raise it again. If you really want to help me, open up the restriction of a fifth-grade spiritual plant.”
Feng Ming felt that this was like opening a blind box. He would be more interested if there weren’t so many people watching.
Feng Ming felt refreshed at this time. He didn’t look at all like he was the one not giving in just now. He said with a bright smile, “Okay, one shot is 10,000 yuan crystals. If a fifth-grade spiritual plant is found, the price will be 500,000 yuan crystals.”
“Okay. When will Brother Wu take action?”
As they were bargaining, Bai Qiaomo opened three restrictions again. The speed was getting faster and faster and others were becoming more jealous.
Just as Bai Qiaomo was about to speak, he saw Wei Fan coming. At this time, he and Feng Ming already knew that Wei Fan and Liang Han were the two people they passed by three times on the first day.
Wei Fan approached arrogantly. “This fellow Daoist is very good at formations. My junior brother would like to ask you to come and help him. He will be willing to help refine ten furnaces of pills for you.”
Gong Yuming became furious when he heard this. This guy dared to rob him, Gong Yuming, of his opportunity?
“Who are you? Who is your junior brother? Why are you putting on such arrogant airs? Don’t you know that I have reached an agreement with Brother Wu? Line up. Who else wants to line up behind me to wait for Brother Wu to open the restriction?”
Gong Yuming shouted to everyone. Immediately, there was a response. In a few seconds, many cultivators ran to Gong Yuming. “I’ll come! I’ll be second behind Young Master Ming!”
“Then I’ll be third.”
“I’m fourth!”
“Who is that? Let me be fifth?”
Feng Ming didn’t care about them competing. He pulled Bai Qiaomo and said, “Let’s go and open the restrictions for Young Master Ming. He just bought ten opportunities from us. We have to go faster and open some restrictions for ourselves.”
“Okay,” Bai Qiaomo replied warmly.
Gong Yuming diligently led the way to the location he had chosen.
Bai Qiaomo started working without saying a word. After more than ten seconds, the restriction that Gong Yuming had just tried so hard to break was broken. The sound of queuing up outside suddenly became more intense.
Han Shu didn’t hesitate to join the process of grabbing a number. The moment she grabbed a number, she looked at the dumbfounded Liang Han and Wei Fan with a bit of schadenfreude.
“Ah, a third-grade spiritual plant,” Gong Yuming screamed. He thought that he would definitely get a good spiritual plant, but only one third-grade spiritual plant came out.
“The next place,” Feng Ming urged.
“It is this way.”
“It is third-grade again,” he screamed again.
“Okay okay, I finally found a fourth-grade one.” Gong Yuming wiped his sweat.
“Ah, it is third-grade again.”
The others couldn’t help laughing when they heard Gong Yuming’s screams from time to time. This luck really wasn’t good.
Gong Yuming’s luck was really bad. He opened the restriction nine times in a row, and only got one fourth-grade spiritual plant. Two of them were empty with nothing inside. The spiritual plant might’ve been taken away previously when the secret realm opened.
Now there was only one last chance left. Everyone couldn’t help looking sympathetically at Gong Yuming.
Gong Yuming gritted his teeth. “That’s it. I don’t believe my luck is so bad.”
It was great luck to get this cheating opportunity from knowing Feng Ming and Bai Qiaomo.
Bai Qiaomo’s speed became even faster. He poked the sword tip several times and opened the restriction in a few breaths.
Others followed suit. However, no matter how hard they poked, they couldn’t get to that point. They could only wait in line for Bai Qiaomo to take action.
An extremely strong smell floated out. Gong Yuming’s eyes lit up, and he rushed towards it.
He saw the spiritual plant inside clearly and finally let out a hearty laugh. “Haha, my luck is here. The fifth-grade spiritual plant is great!”
“Brother Wu, I am the second one. Junior Brother Wen, please take my 100,000 yuan crystals first.”
Feng Ming set a limit of ten chances per person, otherwise no one else would get a chance.
The cultivators who came in wouldn’t be too lacking in yuan crystals, so they had to be restricted.
Feng Ming put away the yuan crystals and ordered Bai Qiaomo, “Okay, Brother Wu. There is another task coming.”
“Okay,” Bai Qiaomo replied with the same good temper.
The second person’s luck was average, neither good nor bad. He was empty twice. Still, there were three fourth-grade spiritual plants. 100,000 yuan crystals harvested three fourth-grade spiritual plants and five third-grade spiritual plants. It was a very cost-effective deal.
There were fourth-grade spiritual plants outside, but it was impossible to gain it even with hundreds of thousands of yuan crystals.
The third person paid 100,000 yuan crystals and received four fourth-grade spiritual plants and three third-grade spiritual plants. He was so happy that his mouth cracked open.
The fourth person was Feng Jinghuai. Gong Yuming patted him on the shoulder. “Brother, your speed is a bit slow. You actually only got fourth.”
Feng Jinghuai was a bit embarrassed. He was the first to subconsciously rush over, but others were a higher cultivation realm than him and faster than him. What could he do?
Still, he was very satisfied. After all, he had seized the opportunity and could finally take advantage of his cousin Feng Ming. He was very excited.
Bai Qiaomo followed Feng Jinghuai and continued to open the restriction. Feng Hongrui was watching from a distance. The jealousy in his eyes was so real that it was about to become substantial.
How could someone be so skilled in formations that he could break the restriction with just the tip of the sword and still earn a lot of yuan crystals with this skill?
Due to the relationship with Gong Yuming, he never stepped forward.
Feng Linlang also knew that this was an excellent opportunity. However, she couldn’t take this step after thinking about how Gong Yuming was close to Feng Ming and Bai Qiaomo.
She didn’t want to bow to anyone who had anything to do with Bai Qiaomo and Feng Ming. Her pride wouldn’t allow it.
Feng Linlang told herself that even if she didn’t get such an opportunity, she could break the restriction and get the spiritual plant.
She looked away and said, “Stop looking. Hurry up and break the restriction. A lot of time has passed.”
“Okay, I don’t believe we are unlucky. Sister, please open a sixth-grade spiritual plant for them to see.”
Wei Fan was the angriest one, but no one at the scene paid attention to him and Liang Han.
He even saw a person who used to flatter his junior brother now acting like he didn’t see them, following others to grab a number.
Some people thought he was in the way and pushed him to stop blocking the path.
Liang Han clenched his fists. It was so irritating. He even promised an opportunity to obtain ten furnaces of pills, but these people actually ignored him.
He would remember these two people. They should never think of asking for anything from him in the future. He wouldn’t make a furnace of pills for these two people. It wasn’t just him, but also his master and his master’s master.
