Chapter 429: Cooperation

“We would truly be unfit to be humans!”
This calm sentence displayed Feng Lin’s unwavering confidence and determination.
When Zhao Yue`e heard this, she fell silent. She cast a deep glance at Feng Lin and didn’t continue to persuade him any longer.
The path of cultivators was extremely arduous to walk on. Mythological knowledge was severely lacking, and many didn’t know what their future path would be like. For everyone that was able to reach this step and join the Great Wall University, they would all have their own convictions.
Once they were sure of what they wanted to do, it was very rare for others to be able to persuade them.
And ever since Feng Lin joined the Great Wall University, he had done many things that seemed impossible from the perspectives of others.
Which of his achievements weren’t surrounded by danger?
Zhao Yue`e had cooperated with him many times and also understood his character very well. Once Feng Lin was determined to do something, even eight horses wouldn’t be able to drag him back from that line of thought.
She decided to participate in the final battle to farm contribution points, and in order to better deal with the danger, she established an independent little team. Each of the members of her team was experts whom she went through great efforts to choose from. It was a cooperation of the strong. At the very least, their cultivation bases were at the mid-phase of the adept realm and they had their own special methods.
Although this Feng Lin was invincible among grand cultivators, his combat strength and cultivation base were clearly insufficient. He also hadn’t worked with the other experts before. If he suddenly joined the little team, would that be a bad thing?
This was also a problem.
As the captain, she had to maintain her rationale. She wouldn’t allow friendship to spoil her judgment.
However, this Feng Lin measured things very accurately, only willing to make a trade with her if she met his conditions. If she didn’t agree with him, she wouldn’t be able to get the crimson refinement gunpowder!
And the crimson refinement gunpowder was obviously a great killing weapon to destroy the spirit race. This was an extremely important component of her plan, and she couldn’t afford not to have it.
In that case, things weren’t so easy to settle then.
What should she do?
Zhao Yue`e found things to be extremely difficult to manage.
Feng Lin could guess what she was thinking about, and didn’t make things too difficult for her. He smiled, “Senior sister Zhao, don’t worry. I naturally know what I’m doing. Right now, although I’m just a grand cultivator, I have the improved version of the crimson refinement gunpowder in my hands. I won’t be a burden to you guys.”
Improved version of the crimson refinement gunpowder?
When Zhao Yue`e heard this, she furrowed her brows. She randomly thought of something and involuntarily asked, “Did you depend on that improved version to destroy the energy core of the mechanical giant?”
Although she phrased this as a question, her tone was filled with certainty.
After all, the energy core was something that made use of nuclear fusion technology. Its energy structure was extremely stable and it was as large as a miniature sun, containing vast amounts of energy. Not any external energy could easily destroy it.
Back then, although there were many elite adepts and grand adepts on the battlefield, they had no solution either.
Only Feng Lin, a grand cultivator, managed to explode it. Causing countless people to be stunned.
And also because of this, Feng Lin shot to fame, his name spreading through the universe.
But Zhao Yue`e could see the crux of the problem. Although Feng Lin’s battle achievements were truly exemplary, he had no way to change the fact that his cultivation base was low. This was the current boundaries set by the heavens,
No one was a fool. Since this Feng Lin could accomplish such a magnificent feat, he must have depended on external aid.
The recording of Feng Lin exploding the energy core was researched by countless cultivation groups in the Great Wall University countless times. That golden spheres shot out by Feng Lin might be small, but many people took notice of them and they came to a conclusion.
Those tiny golden spheres must be some kind of external object that was extremely powerful, containing unfathomable effect.
This had already become public opinion. Most probably, only Feng Lin, who had been spending time assiduously cultivating during these days, didn’t know about this.
...
Upon facing her suspicion, Feng Lin didn’t conceal anything. He nodded and admitted it, “That’s right. That golden spheres are the crimson gold gunpowder!”
He didn’t reveal the real name of the crimson gold cinnabar pill, terming it as gunpowder instead.
Although Zhao Yue`e had anticipated this somewhat, upon obtaining his answer, she was extremely joyful. She hurriedly asked, “Junior brother Feng. Since this is the case, can you sell the crimson gold gunpowder to us?”
She seemed extremely urgent.
She knew Feng Lin wasn’t a braggart. Since this was an improved version of the crimson refinement gunpowder, its might would surely be many times stronger. If she could obtain the new version, her survival and victory rate in battle would be greatly boosted.
However, this time around, Feng Lin actually shook his head. He wouldn’t agree so easily just because of their friendship. Instead, he spoke, “This crimson gold gunpowder can only be controlled via special genetic power and a special method in order to allow it to unleash its greatest might. This is something created through a unique concoction method of my refinement style. Those who haven’t awakened the relevant mythological gene wouldn’t be able to use it. Even if I sell this to you guys, you all won’t be able to use it.”
Killing the members of the spirit race on the battlefield effortlessly, the crimson gold cinnabar pill was an extremely powerful weapon, one of Feng Lin’s greatest trump cards currently. How could he easily divulge it?
In addition, the concoction process was extremely difficult and their number was also exceptionally limited. How could he have spare ones to sell to other people? He even had to expend more effort to impart the controlling method. By doing so, wouldn’t he divulge that he was familiar with the foundation of ancient alchemy? Feng Lin naturally wouldn’t do something so foolish.
Even if it was for Zhao Yue`e, he must reject her.
“Oh?” Although Zhao Yue`e was disappointed, she didn’t continue to have doubts.
During that time on the battlefield, those golden spheres transformed into many phenomena revolving Feng Lin. Everyone had seen that personally. Clearly, those spheres were controlled by genetic power. His words didn’t seem to be false.
But even so, she couldn’t help but feel regret at not being able to purchase the crimson gold gunpowder. But since she could still purchase the crimson refinement gunpowder, Zhao Yue`e didn’t continue to try and persuade Feng Lin.
And at this moment, Feng Lin spoke, dispelling her misgivings. “Senior sister Zhao, don’t worry. For the next battle, I shall try my best to concoct sufficient crimson gold gunpowder. Their might was already witnessed by everyone. I don’t dare say that they will be able to compare to powerful cultivators at the grand adept realm, but at the very least, their might wouldn’t be inferior to any cultivators at the adept realm!”
These words became the last straw that broke the camel’s back in Zhao Yue`e’s heart.
She believed in Feng Lin’s words. After all, she had personally witnessed the might displayed by the crimson gold gunpowder. Its might was truly extraordinary; it was the bane of the spirit race.
“Fine.” In any case, she trusted Feng Lin. After some time of contemplation, Zhao Yue`e eventually agreed.
Feng Lin nodded lightly. In this instant, both of them finally came to an agreement.
Once both of them confirmed the terms, Zhao Yue`e naturally no longer hesitated. She decisively spoke, “Given the prediction of the situation, victory or defeat would be known in a month. At that time, the ultimate decisive battle would be fought. Currently, the spirit tide has also reached its peak, and the reinforcements are increasingly lesser. Once over half of them are killed, they would surely retreat out from the Milky Way Galaxy. According to the past modus operandi of the Great Wall University, they would surely send out cultivators to pursue the spirit race and plunder their technology. That will be the final ultimate battle! Danger and opportunity co-exist together. War had always been a grand banquet for cultivators of the Great Wall University. As long as one can survive, the benefits gained after the war would be endless. At that time, we shall gather together again. During these days, please make your preparation, junior brother Feng.”
“Please rest at ease. I’m on the verge of breaking through to the adept realm, and ten days are sufficient for me to concoct large amounts of crimson gold gunpowder.” Feng Lin had no thoughts of evading the final battle in one month. He made a guarantee.
“That’s naturally for the best.” Zhao Yue`e smiled. The two of them nodded again, and their cooperation was now set.
