Peerless War God

However, as his knowledge increased day by day, he began to understand how unfathomable the Duke of Purple Gold's strength was.    

In terms of strength, he could probably exchange a few blows with the Heavenly Star Sword Sovereign, but he probably wouldn't even be able to last one move against the Duke of Purple Gold.    

This was the huge difference.    

Of course, he wouldn't underestimate himself. It was normal for him to be weaker than the Duke of Purple Gold.    

The Duke of Purple Gold faintly smiled and took a sip of tea, "What did you come here for? Is it a problem with your cultivation?"    

In these past few days, Chen Xiao would often come to the Duke of Zi Jin to ask him some questions regarding his cultivation.    

After the Duke of Zi Jin heard this, he told him everything he knew.    

Even some questions that even Hero could not understand and did not know much about, the Purple Gold Marquis was able to speak a few words. Under the analogy, Chen Xiao was enlightened and benefited a lot.    

Chen Xiao took a deep breath, took out the Azure Cloud Invitation, and placed it on the stone table in front of the two of them.    

When the Duke of Purple Gold saw this, he said, "Azure Cloud Invitation? Why? Are you interested in going to the Azure Cloud Meeting this time?"    

The Duke of Purple Gold had also received the Cangyun Invitation, but he wasn't very interested in it, so he didn't take it to heart.    

However, the final treasure, the Nameless Soul Sword Art, had aroused Chen Xiao's great interest.    

No matter what, he had to personally make a trip to the Dark Green Cloud Meeting to find out the truth. If he really missed it, he would regret it.    

"Yes." Chen Xiao nodded his head and said straightforwardly, "There is a treasure in the Dark Green Cloud Meeting. I want to take a look at it, so I came here to ask Big Brother Redbud about the background of this Dark Green Cloud Meeting."    

After thinking for a while, the Duke of Purple Gold smiled and said, "The background of the Blue Cloud Association isn't a secret. There's a force from the Immortal Weapon Sect behind it. It's a way for them to make money. It's not rare. There aren't many big forces that do this, so it's very normal."    

"That's it?" Chen Xiao asked.    

If it was really that simple, then it would save him a lot of trouble.    

If the Nameless Soul Sword Art was really related to the Soul Seizing Sword, he only needed to spend some money to buy it.    

However, he felt that the Duke of Zi Jin was hiding something.    

As expected, the Duke of Purple Gold continued, "Of course, this is only what the cultivators know on the surface. In reality, the Blue Cloud Association is an extremely dangerous place."    

"Extremely dangerous place?" After Chen Xiao heard this, he raised his eyebrows. He felt that he had heard the truth.    

"Yes, it is dangerous. Think about it, there are so many cultivators who have brought all their wealth to auction their treasures. It is easy to come, but it is not easy to leave."    

The Duke of Zi Jin said coldly. His tone was cruel and emotionless, as if he didn't care at all.    

"This is cheating?" Chen Xiao's heart tightened as he exclaimed.    

The Duke of Purple Gold smiled and said, "That's more or less what I meant. First, lure them here, then kill them in secret. It's a great deal."    

This time, Chen Xiao could not laugh anymore. His face was solemn as he questioned.    

"Big Brother Redbud, if that's really the case, then why hasn't anyone exposed the scheme of the Blue Cloud Association? Why are there still so many cultivators rushing over?"    

This was indeed his biggest doubt. Logically speaking, this was obviously a trap. After the first time, there wouldn't be a second time. Nobody would fall into the same trap.    

However, as far as he knew, the post was already popular in the Purple Cloud City.    

Even the Qin and the Su families were planning to send people there to get some benefits.    

From the looks of it, it didn't seem to match what the Duke of Purple Gold said.    

The Duke of Purple Gold shook his head and stood up. He looked into the distance and said, "You only know one thing, not two."    

"Please elaborate," Chen Xiao said respectfully.    

The Duke of Purple Gold smiled as if he remembered something and said, "Although the Dark Cloud Society is a dangerous place with a lot of risk, it does have a lot of rare treasures. Some of them are even comparable to Heavenly Mystic Treasures. Compared to them, a bit of danger is nothing."    

The Marquis Zi Jin's words were spoken so easily, but they were like thunder, exploding in Chen Xiao's ears, causing him to be shocked.    

"There's a treasure that's comparable to the Heavenly Profound Treasure? Is this true?" Chen Xiao asked in surprise.    

The Duke of Purple Gold laughed and said as if he was looking at Little White, "Of course it's true. The name of the Immortal Weapon Sect isn't just for show. The power of the fake Mystic Heavenly Spiritual Treasures they make isn't any weaker than the Mystic Heavenly Spiritual Treasures. It's just that they cost more than the Mystic Heavenly Spiritual Treasures."    

"So that's how it is." When Chen Xiao heard this, he understood.    

The path of weapon forging was extremely complicated and troublesome, and the Immortal Weapon Sect was obviously established with the method of weapon forging.    

Being able to think of using a greater price to increase the power of the treasure was also very smart.    

As expected, those from one of the nine peak factions of the God Realm all had powerful backgrounds and were definitely not simple.    

In other words, even though it was a bit dangerous, it was not a big deal for them to go to the Dark Green Cloud Gathering for so many benefits.    

Thinking of this, Chen Xiao had a question, "However, the treasures of the Immortal Weapon Sect are probably not cheap either. They must be very expensive. Not everyone is that rich."    

"Heh, Chen Xiao, do you still not understand? Just because you don't have money doesn't mean that others don't either, right?" The Duke of Zi Jin asked.    

"This..."    

Chen Xiao's heart skipped a beat as he suddenly thought of something. He felt a chill down his spine as a chill ran down his spine.    

So, this was the true goal of the Blue Cloud Association. Killing and seizing treasures depended on one's own ability. No wonder they set Blue Cloud City at the edge of the Unparalleled Divine Dynasty.    

In this way, it would be easier to fool others. How interesting. He was more and more interested in the Dark Green Cloud Group.    

"Now that you know how dangerous it is, you still want to go?" the Duke of Purple Gold asked.    

Chen Xiao nodded his head and said: "Yes, Big Brother Redbud, I have already made up my mind. I plan to take a risk. An item from the Blue Cloud Association is extremely important to me."    

The Purple Gold Lord's expression became solemn, and he said, "I'm not trying to persuade you. With your methods, you should be able to protect yourself, unless it's an Immortal level expert. However, as far as I know, no Immortal level expert has ever interfered with the Blue Cloud Association."    

Hearing that, Chen Xiao heaved a sigh of relief, "Thank you for your guidance, Big Brother Zi Jing."    

At this time, the Duke of Zi Jin took out a map drawn on an unknown beast skin and handed it to Chen Xiao. He said, "This is a map of the area around Gray Cloud City. You can take a look at it."    

Chen Xiao's face lit up with joy as he took the map and flipped through it. This time, he felt even more confident.    

After pausing for a moment, he asked again, "Big Brother Zi Jing, I wonder if you are interested in this Dark Green Cloud Society?"    

In his opinion, if the Duke of Purple Gold were to go with the Dark Green Cloud Meeting, it would be much safer.
