God of Fishing - Chapter 2548

2548 Bait (2 in 1)

Hearing that Han Fei didn’t want to kill them for their treasures, these people didn’t dare to play any tricks and immediately cut off part of their memories.

Han Fei secretly tested it with the Vast Ocean Navigator. After confirming that these people had cut off this part of memories, he didn’t make things difficult for them but asked Qin Cheng to take these people to the Hundred Alliance City as usual.

It was as if nothing had happened.

On the way.

!!
Han Fei asked telepathically, “How long has this Soul Controlling Sect been doing this? Has the Hundred Alliance City never noticed it?”

Qin Cheng had already changed his master at this moment, so he naturally told him everything he knew. He said, “My lord, in the Infinite Mining Area, there are almost no safe places except for the Hundred Alliance City. The Soul Controlling Sect is not the only one who intercepts and kills people. However, this matter threatens the safety of everyone in the Infinite Mining Area, so once they are discovered, they will still be blacklisted by the major factions. If anyone encounters them in the future, no one will show mercy to them.”

Han Fei thought to himself, The management of the Hundred Alliance City is really lax. Or rather, the Hundred Alliance City basically doesn’t take charge. They just set up a safe zone and will only play its role when something big happens in the Infinite Mining Area that involves many forces.

Han Fei said again, “It’s said that when outsiders enter the Infinite Mining Area, they can get a token, right? What if I have many people?”

When Qin Cheng heard this, his heart did a flip. What did this mean?

He said, “My lord, in fact, it’s not difficult to obtain this token. There are many ways to obtain it. You don’t have to go to the Hundred Alliance City. For example, ordinary Sea Establishment Realm tokens can be bought with money. Of course, it’s also possible to snatch them, and it’s very convenient. The most direct way is to kill mine demons, obtain minerals, and refine them yourself. The main function of the token is to specify levels. Different strength realms correspond to different levels.”

Han Fei’s heart did a flip. “Oh? There’s a level? I see that your token seems no different from others’.”

Qin Cheng explained, “My lord, that’s because I hid the level of my token for the convenience of business. The tokens in the Infinite Mining Area are mainly refined according to the level of the minerals obtained in the Infinite Mining Area. For example, the Sea Establishment Realm corresponds to level-one minerals, the early-stage Sky Opening Realm corresponds to level-two minerals, the late-stage Star Transformation Realm corresponds to level-three minerals, the peak-level late-stage Star Transformation Realm corresponds to level-four minerals, and the perfected Star Transformation Realm corresponds to level-five minerals… And those who can own level-six mineral tokens can establish a sect in the Infinite Mining Area and become a power… After these minerals are dug out, you can go to the Hundred Alliance City to forge them into tokens yourself, or refine them yourself.”

Han Fei’s eyes lit up. “Owing a level-six mineral token, one can establish a sect and become a force?”

Qin Cheng nodded. “Actually, above the level-six minerals, there are level-seven minerals. If you can have a level-seven mineral token, it means that you have extraordinary strength, enough to be ranked among the top 100 forces in the Hundred Alliance City. As long as you can beat any power of the Hundred Alliance City, you will be recognized by the Hundred Alliance City.”

Han Fei asked, “Anything better?”

Qin Cheng paused and said, “It seems there is, but the minerals above level seven correspond to extremely terrifying mine demons, even comparable to the Monarch level, so it’s extremely difficult for even a large faction to obtain them.”

Han Fei thought that this was probably all Qin Cheng knew. A better mineral was not something Qin Cheng could get.

Han Fei asked, “How do you differentiate the token levels?”

Qin Cheng explained, “This is one of the hidden rules of the Infinite Mining Area. Those who should be recognized can be recognized. It’s just like the difference between a Sea Quelling Bizarre Treasure and a godly weapon. The difference between minerals can be measured by the power they unleash when they’re fully unleashed.”

Han Fei’s heart did a flip. If that was the case, he didn’t have to go to the Hundred Alliance City to get tokens. He might as well snatch them. Didn’t the Soul Controlling Sect specialize in scams? With so few people under him, as long as he took down the Soul Controlling Sect, wouldn’t everyone have a token? It would save him the trouble of forging them.

…

Several days later.

Han Fei didn’t encounter any special mine demons. Most of them were level-two mine demons. He did encounter a level-three mine demon, but it was killed by Qin Cheng without Han Fei doing anything. Qin Cheng said that this was because this was the way to the Hundred Alliance City. These roads had been walked countless times. Even if there was a mine demon, its level wouldn’t be too high.

On this day, when Han Fei passed by a huge mining area, he found that this place was guarded by many powerhouses. Han Fei could see that countless Sea Establishers were actually mining in this mining area. All kinds of great techniques emerged endlessly. These Sea Establishers were fighting some Sea Establishment Realm mine demons. It seemed that mining was not a simple task.

Han Fei and the others were monitored by some perceptions along the way. Han Fei even felt the vibe of a perfected Star Transformation Realm powerhouse, and there was more than one. This meant that from now on, they had entered the safe area.

Several hours passed.

Han Fei saw a huge city spanning more than 100,000 kilometers. Of course, this was only an approximate range. It was irregular in shape and faced endless mineral veins on all sides. Countless Sea Establishers were digging in those mining areas at the moment.

Seeing that they had arrived at the Hundred Alliance City, the other people on Han Fei’s team were all excited. This meant that this trip was safe, and they had easily earned another errand fee.

Han Fei, on the other hand, was not very excited. He asked, “Are these mining areas worth digging for so long? By rights, the minerals here should have all been excavated long ago, right?”

Qin Cheng replied, “My lord, although these mining areas are nominally mining areas, they are actually just a cultivation place to nurture Sea Establisher-level powerhouses. In these two huge mines, it is said that there is a top-notch mineral hidden. The power leaking from this top-notch mineral can continuously produce the most common associated Black Flame Mine, which is a level-one mineral. At the same time, it is very easy to give birth to corresponding Black Flame Mine Demons, so it can be used as a long-term cultivation field.”

Han Fei nodded. This made sense. With a powerful treasure mine, it could indeed mutate the mineral veins in an area.

For example, although most of the Chaotic Spiritual Earth he had obtained in the Demon Domain was of poor quality, it was surprisingly effective on his Origin Star. Because his Origin Star had time acceleration, this spiritual soil would slowly recover. Furthermore, as time passed, some Mystic Yellow Soil had already appeared on his Origin Star. Although the area wasn’t very large, it was tens of thousands of cubes in total.

It was a pity that he couldn’t obtain a large amount of high-quality Chaotic Spiritual Earth. Otherwise, the effect would be more than ten times better.

…

Hundred Alliance City.

As the name suggested, it was a place where hundreds of factions and tens of millions of races gathered.

The Hundred Alliance City was protected by some kind of barrier. Every ten thousand kilometers, Sky Openers would stand guard, and every hundred thousand kilometers, there would be Star Transformation Realm Guards.

After entering the safe area, there was no need to worry about safety. No one here would attack casually.

After seeing the Divine Capital Dynasty, Han Fei had thought that the huge city built in a place like the Infinite Mining Area must be extraordinary. But when he really entered the Hundred Alliance City, he found that the buildings here were really featureless. Any island in the Divine Capital Dynasty was stronger than this.

Here, there were ordinary ore buildings everywhere. The style was heavy and there was no special aesthetic. There were not many spiritual plants here, so on both sides of the road, there were mostly statues that were of an obscene amount. They were used as decorations. The strangest part was that there was a statue dozens of meters tall every ten meters on average.

The floor under his feet seemed to have been carefully carved with extremely complicated patterns.

Of course, the lack of buildings couldn’t hide the lively scene in the Hundred Alliance City. Since it was a city, it would naturally radiate to many areas around. There were hundreds of forces in the Infinite Mining Area, so there were naturally many people who had been in the Hundred Alliance City all year round. Therefore, it was very lively in the city.

Han Fei said, “Take the team to finish the mission. We still have to do what needs to be done.”

Qin Cheng nodded, but then he said, “My lord, now that I’ve appeared in the Hundred Alliance City, we can’t hide it from the Soul Controlling Sect anymore. They must know that something has happened now, and since I’ve appeared here, I’m afraid… we’ll be targeted at any time.”

Han Fei sneered. “It’s not that they’ll target us at any time, but that they’ve already targeted us. It doesn’t matter. Do what you need to do. This is the safe area. Even if the Soul Controlling Sect is among the top 100, so what?”

To finish the mission, Qin Chen should take Han Fei and the others to sell the seeds bought outside to the reserved merchants in the Hundred Alliance City. Han Fei bought ten times the amount of each type of seed, so after selling a portion, he could still keep a lot.

After the team was disbanded, Han Fei took out a golden token and put it on his waist. This was the symbol of a perfected Star Transformation Realm powerhouse. It showed his strength to the outside world and secretly warned some people.

As soon as Han Fei and the others finished the mission, two men immediately went to Qin Cheng.

One of them said, “Qin Cheng, what happened to Yang Qian? Why are you in the Hundred Alliance City? You suddenly become an honest businessman?”

Qin Cheng said, “My lords, I’d like to ask you where Master Yang Qian is. I didn’t meet Master Yang Qian along the way. That’s why I took these people to complete this mission. If I had met Master Yang Qian earlier, why would I have come to the Hundred Alliance City?”

“You didn’t meet him?”

The expressions of the two people changed slightly. Could it be that it really had nothing to do with Qin Cheng? But a few days ago, they received news from the sect that Yang Qian had died. And the only person they could associate with this matter was Qin Cheng.

Now, Qin Chengran had appeared, and Yang Qian was carrying more than 10% of the Six-Winged Mineral Worms in the sect. At that time, the power Yang Qian had was comparable to that of a super powerhouse who had unsealed two Great Dao Locks. Who could kill Yang Qian in that state?

The two of them looked at each other and their expressions changed slightly. One of them said, “In that case, Qin Cheng, since you’ve already joined the Soul Controlling Sect, go with us this time!”

Qin Cheng refused flatly. “No! The one who made an agreement with me is Master Yang Qian. This trip was very strange. Not only did Master Yang Qian not appear, but you also came to ask me. I’m afraid something happened to Master Yang Qian. Under such circumstances, you want me to go with you? Sorry, I, Qin Cheng, still want to live. I don’t want to be killed for no reason.”

Hearing this, the two of them looked surprised.

One of them said, “Qin Cheng, it seems that you want to betray us before you even join us?”

Qin Cheng said straightforwardly, “You can eat whatever you want, but you can’t say whatever you want. Something has clearly happened to the Soul Controlling Sect. Why are you still asking me to join? What can you give me? Can it help me advance to the perfected Star Transformation Realm?”

The person said, “Qin Cheng, with your talent, it’s a certainty that you’ll advance to the perfected Star Transformation Realm. Since you’ve already agreed to join the Soul Controlling Sect, do you know the consequences if you go back on your word now?”

Qin Cheng said, “I never said that I would regret it, but it wasn’t the two of you who made a deal with me back then. Besides, are you worthy of threatening me? I, Qin Cheng, am in the peak-level late-stage Star Transformation Realm anyway, an existence who can reach the perfected Star Transformation Realm at any time. If it weren’t for the benefits you promised, do you think I would have joined you? Instead, I want to persuade your Soul Controlling Sect not to make things difficult for me. Otherwise, you will have one more enemy in the perfected Star Transformation Realm.”

Hearing Qin Cheng’s words, the two of them were speechless and just looked at Qin Cheng coldly. They weren’t sure just now, but now they somewhat believed that Yang Qian’s death should be related to Qin Cheng.

After Qin Cheng left with a cold look, after a long time, one of them said, “I’m afraid this Qin Cheng has already betrayed us and killed Yang Qian with others.”

The other person frowned. “Can he kill Yang Qian?”

“Of course it’s impossible for him to kill Yang Qian, but it’s not impossible for him to kill Yang Qian together with a strong master.”

“No matter what, there is something wrong with Qin Cheng. Report this matter first. Unless he stays in the Hundred Alliance City forever, there will be plenty of opportunities to take him down later.”

After a while, Qin Cheng and Han Fei met up. He said, “My lord, I’ve deliberately aroused their suspicion. I estimate that in a few days, a team of strong masters from the Soul Controlling Sect will come and set up a trap outside the Hundred Alliance City, ready to ambush me at any time and check my memories.”

Han Fei waved his hand casually. “It’s fine. Do you know how many Great Dao Locks the strongest person in the Soul Controlling Sect has?”

Qin Cheng said, “This is simple. More than 500 years ago, it was revealed that Yang Kun, the leader of the Soul Controlling Sect in the Infinite Mining Area, already had three Great Dao Locks.”

In the Infinite Mining Area, or in the eyes of some of the older generation, the existence of the Great Dao Lock was something that they knew very well.

Although one would become very powerful after opening the Great Dao Lock, it couldn’t be opened casually.

The Great Dao Lock was the shackles that bound one’s body and soul after they almost couldn’t carry his power. Once the shackles were unlocked, it meant that one had to transcend the tribulation to prove Dao. However, ordinary people had little chance of survival. Unless they were confident of transcending the tribulation, no one would easily open the Great Dao Lock.

Of course, nothing was absolute. Han Fei believed that since the Great Dao lock could be unlocked, it could be locked again. It was just a matter of how much it would cost.

During the battle with the Bloodthirsty Flag Fish Tribe, Han Fei had learned the horror of unsealing the Great Dao Lock. His current limit of combat power was probably only enough to withstand the combat power of three Great Dao Locks head-on. If the other party had too many Great Dao Locks and completely unsealed them, he was afraid he wouldn’t be a match for them for now.

Of course, if his enemy could be restrained by the God Sealing Spear Array, he might have a chance to win. At least, even if he couldn’t beat it, he could escape, unless the other party had the ability to instantly break through the God Sealing Spear Array.

However, so far, Han Fei didn’t think anyone could do this. At least, no one had been able to do this during the 100,000-year competition of the Divine Capital Dynasty.

Of course, apart from a head-on clash, he also had the Void Stealing Technique, so the three Great Dao Locks weren’t a big problem.

Han Fei didn’t care much about the Soul Controlling Sect. Han Fei needed a piece of territory of his own now. At the same time, one of his purposes here was to destroy the power of the City of Scavengers and the City of Origin in the Infinite Mining Area.

At this moment, his footing was not steady yet. If he was too hasty, he might alert the enemy. Therefore, Han Fei asked Qin Cheng, “Where is the intelligence center?”

…

Wherever people cultivated, there would be information. Especially in a place like the Infinite Mining Area, there were secrets everywhere. How could hundreds of factions not have any secrets?

The Hundred Alliance City had many intelligence organizations, but the largest one was in the Capital of Horror. The Capital of Horror had absolute say in the Infinite Mining Area.

Han Fei thought to himself, I’m actually on good terms with the Capital of Horror, but I can’t just go up and tell them that I’m Han Fei and give me information… Not to mention anything else, just the information that I’m Han Fei might exceed all the information I want to buy.

Therefore, without any acquaintances, he had to buy intelligence obediently.

Of course, if Zhang Daqian could send back more information from the City of Scavengers, he should be able to save a lot of money. Unfortunately, the place where the City of Scavengers was located in the Infinite Mining Area was a little far from the Hundred Alliance City and the information couldn’t be synchronized that far.

Qin Cheng took Han Fei to the intelligence center. It was a grotto-type building. On one cliff, there were more than 3,000 caves. When Han Fei revealed his token, a guide led Han Fei into one of the caves.

When Han Fei entered, a beautiful woman was already waiting here. She said, “May I ask what kind of intelligence you would like to buy, Customer?”

Han Fei’s heart skipped a beat. Even the intelligence sellers were all in the peak-level late-stage Star Transformation Realm. Was the Capital of Horror so powerful in the Infinite Mining Area?

Han Fei said indifferently, “I need the information about the specific strength of the City of Scavengers and the City of Origin, in the Infinite Mining Area. For example, how many of their strong masters have Great Dao Locks, and how many Great Dao Locks they have.”

The charming woman’s beautiful eyes flashed, and then she returned to her normal etiquette smile. “Sir, this kind of privacy is top secret information of all the major factions. The City of Origin ranks tenth among all the factions in the Hundred Alliance City. Sir, are you sure you want to buy this information? The price… will be very high.”

Han Fei asked, “How high is it?”

The woman said, “I’m afraid it will take at least a hundred 360,000-kilometer Origin Stars to buy such information about the City of Scavengers. As for the City of Origin… the price will have to double.”

“Hiss ~”

Han Fei gasped hard. He had thought that he had some resources. How much could two pieces of intelligence be worth? However, it turned out that the price was more than a hundred times that of the camps.

“Bye-bye! I’m not buying any.”

Han Fei immediately turned around and left. This intelligence agency had no conscience at all. Wasn’t this robbery?

Han Fei was so scared that he ran away, but the other party didn’t make things difficult for Han Fei. She wasn’t angry that Han Fei didn’t buy it. She just said indifferently, “Go check it. He must be the one who killed Yang Qian of the Soul Controlling Sect. Very few people in the outer camps can kill Yang Qian. Let’s see who has been causing trouble outside the Infinite Mining Area recently.”

“Yes…”

Seeing Han Fei come out of the intelligence agency speechlessly, Qin Cheng couldn’t help but ask, “My lord, have you got the information?”

Han Fei said with a black face, “Ask when you should, and shut up when you shouldn’t.”

Qin Cheng immediately shut up, wondering if this big shot whose name he didn’t know was angry because he couldn’t afford the information.

After only two steps, Han Fei suddenly turned around. “Qin Cheng, if you want to completely become mine, you have to swear allegiance. Your soul and essence blood only prove that you are willing to follow me, but whether you are worthy of being my subordinate or not is a problem. So…”

Three days later.

Qin Cheng left the Hundred Alliance City alone.

At this moment, Qin Cheng panicked. He knew that Han Fei wasn’t a good person, but he didn’t expect Han Fei to be so bad as to use him as bait to lure the Soul Controlling Sect to take action.

Come on, no matter how poor the comprehensive strength of the Soul Controlling Sect was, it was still a terrifying existence on the list of forces in the Infinite Mining Area. Although the death of Yang Qian would be a pity for the Soul Controlling Sect, it wasn’t to the point of being a heavy loss. After all, Yang Qian wasn’t a perfected Star Transformation cultivator with a Great Dao Lock.

After walking for half a day from the Infinite Mining Area to the northwest, a large number of mine demons had already appeared here.

However, because Qin Cheng’s speed was fast, the mine demons couldn’t catch up, so it was relatively safe.

Qin Cheng had no choice but to hope that Han Fei was strong enough to easily ambush and kill the people of the Soul Controlling Sect. In Qin Cheng’s opinion, this was a low-level trick, but he was certain that the Soul Controlling Sect would definitely be fooled.

Qin Cheng didn’t understand. Han Fei didn’t have any grudge with the Soul Controlling Sect. Yang Qian had already died by his hand. Why did he still lure the Soul Controlling Sect to take action?

Buzz!

Swish! Swish! Swish!

At this moment, the void trembled, and four strong masters appeared in all directions, blocking Qin Cheng’s way.

One of them said, “Qin Cheng, you’ve betrayed our Soul Controlling Sect, but you still have the courage to walk out of the Hundred Alliance City. I wonder who gave you the confidence?”

Qin Cheng pretended that his expression changed drastically. “I haven’t even joined the Soul Controlling Sect. How can you call me a traitor? Something happened to your Soul Controlling Sect and the person who was supposed to meet me was gone. How can I join you?”

“You’re quibbling! Since you refuse to talk, I’ll take you down and search your soul. I don’t believe that what happened to Yang Qian has nothing to do with you.”

Qin Cheng heaved a sigh. “Well, I think you may be too weak to take me down.”

“Heh! How dare you?! Even if you’ve reached the perfected Star Transformation Realm, you won’t be able to escape today. Attack…”

As soon as this person activated his technique, he suddenly felt that something was wrong. His strength seemed to have decreased a lot? It seemed to be suppressed by an invisible power.

At this moment, Han Fei’s voice rang leisurely, “He’s right. You are indeed too weak.”
