Chapter 291 Cloud and Earth Degradation

Behind him, Bai Du Shi waved his hand, signaling the three weavers to retreat.

Together with the guard envoy, he reported the matter of Shentongfang to his superiors, preparing to obtain further information about Shentongfang.

After Chen Yuanmu returned, Chen Yuanfeng and Chen Yuanxin couldn't wait to ask.

"How is it, have you bought it out?" Chen Yuanxin kept his composure, but there was still some anxiety in his eyes.

Chen Yuanmu shook his head: "The price offered by Cailou is twenty feet of Xiayun."

"What?" Chen Yuanxin and Chen Yuanfeng exclaimed in unison.

Chen Yuanfeng blushed: "This is absolutely not possible!"

"Second brother, if this gets to those families, there might be a big incident." Chen Yuanxin stopped him from talking. "You have been through so many things, you should know the importance of this. This Xiayun must be given away."

Chen Yuanfeng sat down dejectedly on the chair and slapped his palm on the table: "Although the use of Xiayun does not require the consent of the main vein, they will inevitably know."

It still involves the issue of resource allocation.

The old guys don’t care about this, but the younger generations below them are counting on it for their growth.

"Even if the bones are broken, the tendons are still connected. We are all from the same clan, so they won't have any objections at this time." Chen Yuanxin said with a straight face: "At worst, I can save face and split some of the Yuntu to train a few more descendants. Then the head of the family won't say anything."

Chen Yuanfeng and Chen Yuanmu widened their eyes: "No, big brother, if you split the cloud and soil again, your life span will be shortened."

Chen Yuanxin waved his hand: "It's okay."

"What an evil creature!" Chen Yuanfeng's face was full of anger and he started cursing at the dead Chen Hua.

Now that things have come to this, the matter can only be settled with Xiayun.

Chen Yuanmu, who had returned from the Cailou, had not forgotten another important matter, and said solemnly: "Brother, I have one more thing."

"Those cloud thieves may have a complete magical formula in their hands!"

Chen Yuanfeng and Chen Yuanxin were both stunned, and then asked in surprise: "Where is the magic formula?"

Chen Yuanmu repeated the information he had obtained from Cailou and his own analysis, which made Chen Yuanxin stroke his beard.

"So, the magical power was obtained by a little fellow in the White Venerable Realm?"

Chen Yuanmu nodded: "It should be like this."

Although he had not experienced it personally, Chen Yuanmu's analysis was still pretty accurate.

All three of them were worldly-wise and shrewd people, and they all thought that Liu Xun had found the secret recipe for the magical power.

Chen Yuanxin's stern face finally showed joy: "With the magical formula, maybe I can persuade the head of the family to make up for the mistakes Hua'er made."

The value of magical prescriptions cannot be judged by ordinary things.

Even Yunxian couldn't refuse the magical formula, and it wasn't something that could only be used once, so it would be of great benefit to the family.

Even the Chen family only has two magical recipes, and one of them is an incomplete one.

This complete recipe for magical power must be obtained.

"Third brother, arrange someone to find that kid. Remember not to make it public." Chen Yuanxin stood up suddenly, unable to wait any longer.

He turned around and looked at Chen Yuanfeng seriously: "I suspect Cailou has also guessed the existence of Shentongfang. With their methods, it is only a matter of time for them to find that guy. We have to succeed before Cailou!"

Chen Yuanfeng's expression was stern. His elder brother was right. Cailou's ability to collect information was unparalleled in the world. If they guessed the magical power, they would definitely go to verify it. It would be bad if they were caught by Cailou at that time.

"I have an old friend who became a sixth-level cultivator a few years ago and is good at divination. You can ask him for help!" Chen Yuanfeng said quickly.

Chen Yuanmu was careful in his actions, and he reminded: "Don't let him know the magic formula."

Chen Yuanfeng nodded immediately: "I know, just say that the boy killed a young man in the clan, and ask him to help predict the other party's location."

"Okay!" Chen Yuanxin's face remained calm. He stepped out of the house and walked towards the main vein.

He wanted to inform the head of the family, whether it was about taking the clouds or the magical formula.

Just like he said, when it comes to major matters, there is no distinction between the main branch and the side branch. These things concern the interests of the family, so the main branch must be informed.

Chen Zhengqing, the head of the Chen family, was having a meal. When he saw Chen Yuanxin, an elder from the side branch, coming here, he stopped eating and asked with a smile what was the matter.

Although there were no Cloud Immortals in the side branches, and the highest level of the elders in the side branches was only at the Yellow Venerable Realm, Chen Zhengqing was a 7th-turn Dark Cloud Immortal, so he did not neglect them. On the contrary, Chen Zhengqing was very respectful to these elders.

After Chen Yuanxin explained his purpose, the smile on Chen Zhengqing's face gradually disappeared.

Keeping cloud thieves?

absurd!

His Chen family is a righteous family. Living in a righteous circle, one must abide by the rules of the righteous world.

Chen Hua was challenging the rules. Even if he hadn't died, Chen Zhengqing would have punished him.

Don't think that there are no conflicts of interest in the right path. The struggle is more fierce in the invisible places.

If the news of keeping the Cloud Bandits gets out, those righteous forces will definitely use this as an excuse to force the Chen family to give up many of their interests.

If they don’t give in, the Chen family will never have peace within the rules.

There is even a possibility that you will be labeled as a cloud thief, and in the end you will not even be able to keep a clean name.

Chen Zhengqing would never allow this to happen. He calmed down his anger and asked, "What is the price for buying out the information from Cailou?"

"Twenty-zhang clouds." Chen Yuanxin looked into the patriarch's eyes without dodging or regret.

"Well, Chen Hua is so good, he left such a mess behind after his death!" Chen Zhengqing snorted. He stood up and stared at Chen Yuanxin: "So, uncle came here and has made up his mind to take Xiayun?"

Chen Yuanxin nodded, and saw that the patriarch was holding back his anger. It was obvious that he was trying to suppress his anger.

Chen Zhengqing's eyes were cold: "Xiayun was left behind by your side branch's eighth rank ancestor. I have no right to make the decision, but I want to remind you that if this hole is opened and there is any trouble again, Cailou will chase Xiayun and you will not be able to keep the remaining Xiayun."

The Cailou doesn't run a charity. Knowing that the Chen family has a lot of money, how can they talk about doing business without emptying it out?

This time, only twenty feet of clouds are needed, but it is just a test.

Test whether the Chen family would give Xia Yun away as a price.

Having set this precedent, next time there is an urgent matter, Cailou will definitely ask for Xiayun again, until all the Xiayun of the Chen family is emptied out.

Chen Yuanxin said solemnly: "If I don't give it this time, I can't even get through this crisis, how can I talk about the next time?"

The eighth-turn ancestor of the side branch passed away unexpectedly, and the clouds he left behind were reduced to less than a hundred feet after many years.

It's not that the Chen family didn't integrate it into Yuncheng and kept it in the treasury for people to covet, but there was another reason.

Taking Xiayun as an example, if the eighth-level cloud fairy merges, Xiayun can be integrated into Yuncheng without any difference.

For cloud immortals who have not reached the eighth level or even merged with heavenly immortals, the rosy clouds will exist at first, but after a period of time, they will degenerate into dark clouds or white clouds.

The rosy clouds merged into the white clouds and soon degenerated into white clouds, without even a trace of rosy clouds left.

The same is true for blending into the dark clouds.

Anyone who knows how to calculate will know that this kind of thing, where the cost outweighs the gain, should never be done.

On the other hand, when the cloud city of the Seventh Turn Dark Cloud Immortal merges with the white clouds, the white clouds will slowly transform into dark clouds.

When the eighth level merges the dark clouds, they will gradually turn into rosy clouds.

This is a step in the right direction.

The Chen family no longer has the eighth level, so the less of these clouds they use, the better.

The rosy clouds left behind by the Eighth Turn ancestor were much more than this. Several generations of the Chen family used the rosy clouds to break through, and consumed a lot of them.

There are less than a hundred feet left, and wasting any more will not be worth it.

It is easy for clouds and soil to degenerate, but difficult to transform and upgrade.

If someone in the clan breaks through to the eighth level, these clouds can save him a lot of hard work.

When Chen Zhengqing heard what Chen Yuanxin said, he was no longer angry, but laughed: "I hope you side branches will cause less trouble next time."

Chen Yuanxin was very thick-skinned, and he seemed not to have heard what he said: "Master, I know the whereabouts of the complete magical formula."
