A mortal cultivating immortality can nurture spirit beasts.

Fairy Ni Chang understood perfectly well that Lin He wasn't unwilling to participate in the war; otherwise, he wouldn't have had Hong Fu convene everyone for a meeting.

"I have two conditions. First, I need a lot of materials, some of which are quite rare and will require the help of the seven factions to find them. Of course, the purchase price will be calculated entirely according to the market price, so you will not suffer any losses."

Lin He took out the materials list and handed it to Fairy Ni Chang. She was also surprised when she received it. She passed the list around to the others, and seeing that no one had any objections, she then said…

"Some of the materials are on us and we can give them to you immediately. Some materials are indeed rare and hard to find, but with the strength of the seven factions, we can still find them, it just will take some time."

As expected, many hands make light work. Several Core Formation stage cultivators immediately provided Lin He with the materials he needed, and in considerable quantities.

Lin He had killed so many Foundation Establishment cultivators, and he had also earned a large sum of spirit stones, plus a huge sum of money from Biling Island that he hadn't touched yet. So he readily paid the spirit stones.

Everyone was quite surprised to see this. They hadn't expected that Lin He, a Foundation Establishment cultivator, was also a wealthy man with considerable assets. However, considering that he had killed more than three hundred Foundation Establishment cultivators, it didn't seem like such a strange thing.

"Then what is the second condition?" Fairy Ni Chang asked.

"The second thing is that I'd like to borrow some treasures from you all!" Lin He continued, seeing the frowns on everyone's faces.

"In this battle, I am very likely to face an attack from several Core Formation stage cultivators. If I do not have powerful treasures, my life may be in danger. Although I am eager to contribute to the sect, I will not risk my life."

Lin He's words were reasonable and well-founded, so the others couldn't really refute them. After all, if they put themselves in each other's shoes, offending both the Ghost Spirit Sect and the Spirit Control Sect at the same time could really lead to an attack by Core Formation stage cultivators, and they might really lose their lives if things went wrong.

But would you lend the treasure to Lin He?

These Nascent Soul stage cultivators aren't fools. They're not afraid that Lin He will default on his debt, but rather that he might be killed by the cultivators of the six demonic sects the very next day after they've lent him the treasure. Wouldn't that be giving the treasure to the enemy? Wouldn't that be pure aiding the enemy?

Fairy Ni Chang naturally noticed everyone's expressions. She coughed and said, "Junior Nephew Lin, we completely understand that you want to save your life, but is this condition...?"

Lin He shook his head and said firmly, "I only have these two conditions. If you agree, I will join the war; otherwise, I will not risk my life."

Seeing Lin He's insistence, everyone frowned. If Lin He didn't participate in the battle, then the six sects of the demonic path would have to fight a decisive battle with them. At that time, it would be obvious who would win and who would lose, and there would be no suspense at all.

If the Jingu Plain defense line falls, the subsequent defense will be even more difficult, and they may have to withdraw from Yue Kingdom before long.

Thinking of this terrible outcome, everyone was anxious, but they were naturally unwilling to lend out their treasures for nothing, and for a moment they were caught in a dilemma.

At this moment, a beautiful woman dressed in red stood up; it was Hong Fu.

"Although Junior Nephew Lin is a disciple of our Yellow Maple Valley, we will not force him to risk his life in battle. Since Junior Nephew Lin calls me Senior Uncle, let's start with me."

Hong Fu took out something first. It was a small banner with clouds painted on it, which was the Flowing Cloud Banner.

"This is the Flowing Cloud Banner, a fine antique. Let's lend it to Junior Nephew Lin."

Seeing this, Li Huayuan also stood up. "Since Senior Sister has taken the lead, I, as her junior brother, should naturally follow suit. Nephew Lin, this Mountain Opening Seal is also a fine ancient treasure; I'll lend it to you."

They had actually lent these two items to Lin He long ago, but in order to put some pressure on the other Core Formation cultivators, Lin He had his two senior uncles put on a show with him, and Lin He even expressed his gratitude.

Hong Fu and Li Huayuan immediately produced exquisite antique treasures, causing everyone to turn pale and inwardly curse.

Ordinary magic treasures cost at least tens of thousands of spirit stones, while ordinary ancient treasures cost at least hundreds of thousands of spirit stones. As for high-quality ancient treasures, the price is at least double that, costing at least three or four hundred thousand spirit stones.

Although everyone present was a Core Formation stage cultivator, it didn't mean that everyone was wealthy. Even if they had a fine ancient treasure, they would hide it away carefully and wouldn't be willing to lend it to Lin He.

However, Hong Fu and Li Huayuan's move put immense pressure on them. If the treasure they borrowed was too weak, they would be laughed at; if it was too strong, they would feel bad about it. As a result, the atmosphere at the scene became somewhat somber.

Just then, a clear, cool voice rang out, and a stunningly beautiful woman with bright eyes and white teeth suddenly stood up. She cupped her hands towards Lin He and said...

"Back in Yanjiabao, thanks to Junior Nephew Lin's help, my magic weapon was not corrupted by the Yin energy. Today, Junior Nephew Lin needs help, and I should do my part."

Lin He looked at Nangong Wan with some surprise. This was not an act; he genuinely did not know. He had not expected Nangong Wan to have prepared a surprise for him. She was truly deeply affectionate.

"This is a Frost Dragon Token. The token contains the essence of a Frost Dragon, whose strength is equivalent to that of a cultivator in the early stage of Core Formation. It should be able to help Junior Nephew Lin."

Lin He accepted the token with great solemnity and expressed his gratitude.

Upon hearing Nangong Wan's words, Fairy Ni Chang could no longer remain seated. She had also been present that day, and if Lin He hadn't intervened, her magical artifact would have been compromised as well. She immediately stood up.

"I was also at Yan Family Fort that day, and I was also helped by Junior Nephew Lin. Of course, I must repay this kindness. This is a Soul Condensing Pearl, which can withstand the impact on the soul. I will lend it to Junior Nephew Lin."

Everyone was surprised after hearing this. In the battle of Yan Family Fortress, Wang Tiangu, a Nascent Soul cultivator from the Ghost Spirit Sect, had his physical body destroyed. This was a major event that shocked the Yue Kingdom and had already spread throughout the kingdom. How could they not know about it?

They never expected that Lin He would play such an important role, even helping Fairy Ni Chang and Fairy Nangong.

After four Core Formation stage cultivators expressed their support, the others knew they couldn't avoid it today and began to consider what kind of treasures they should lend.

The cultivator surnamed Jian from Spirit Beast Mountain had a burning gaze as he looked at the pile of treasures in Lin He's hands, his greed growing stronger.

He thought for a moment, then stood up. "My Spirit Beast Mountain is different from other sects; we mainly rely on spirit beasts in battle. I don't have any top-quality ancient treasures, but I do have a bottle of Divine Power Pills!"

This Divine Power Pill can permanently increase the strength of a spirit beast when swallowed; it is a pill specially made for spirit beasts.

Lin He was very interested. This pill was very suitable for Yuan Yi. However, the increase in strength from a single bottle of Divine Power Pill was limited. If he could obtain the formula for refining the pill, Yuan Yi's strength would be greatly enhanced.

However, Lin He was only thinking about it, since the other party wouldn't easily give out such a formula.

Next, Tianque Fortress, Giant Sword Sect, Blade Transformation Dock, and Qingxu Sect each lent out a magic weapon, but they were all ordinary magic weapons of average quality. Lin He was not surprised by this, as they had no relationship with him and no favors to repay. Lending an ordinary magic weapon was already a great favor.

Lin He expressed his gratitude to each of them, and solemnly stated that he would participate in the battle between Core Formation stage cultivators, thus concluding the meeting.
