At the Huangcheng Inn, Old Man Qing suddenly opened his mouth wide and said in surprise: "Boy, what's your speed?"
He was indeed frightened. Others might not be able to see clearly, but he was different. The speed at which Wang Dong arrived just now was simply astonishing. That kind of speed almost reached teleportation, which even a martial lord like him could not achieve.
"Hehe... After practicing for a few days, I have some enlightenment!" Wang Dong walked in relaxed and did not explain much.
"How many days? Less than seven days!" Old man Qing's heart twitched. He reached such a point in such a short period of time. Is this a talent or a monster
Although he knew that he must have made some achievements in this area before, but even if he had some enlightenment, it would be a bit too thorough, and his realm would also be improved by one level!
Everyone was naturally happy about the improvement of Wang Dong's realm, but they were not too surprised. After all, it was not too difficult to improve every small realm before the Wu Zun realm.
"My youngest, someone came from Beishifang a few days after you left. They were sent by Lingyue!"
"What's the matter?" Wang Dong knew the reason why Lingyue took so much care of them, but he didn't expect it to happen so quickly.
"She invited you to be the chief stone appraiser of Gambling Stone Fang and attend this year's Stone Gambling Conference!" Everyone's expressions were a little unnatural when they said this. Stone Gambling Fang is the most authoritative stone gambling organization in Huangcheng. Stone Gambling Fang Including the best stone appraisers in Huangcheng, they couldn't figure out why Wang Dong was invited to attend this Stone Gambling Conference. They must know that this is related to the foundation of Stone Gambling Workshop's status in Huangcheng.
"What is that?" Wang Dong was confused.
really! Everyone else had expressions as expected. Wang Dong's knowledge of Huangcheng and even Dongling as a whole was completely reduced to zero.
Bai Xiaosheng stood up and explained: "Simply speaking, the Stone Gambling Conference is a compromise method chosen by big families for the purpose of fighting. The winner monopolizes the stone gambling industry in Huangcheng, and the loser withdraws from Huangcheng. It is held every ten years. Once, the Ling Family, which is now Gambling Stone Square, won."
"Is Gambling Stone Fang seeking defeat? I'm not even a stone appraiser now!" Wang Dong was helpless, feeling that Gambling Stone Fang was crazy.
Bai Xiaosheng smiled slightly, shook his head and said: "Youngest, you may not know that before you came here, the only senior stone appraiser who was gambling on the stone workshop was assassinated, and until now, no suitable candidate has been found. But the Stone Gambling Conference is imminent. If we compete normally with a Stone Gambling Workshop without a senior stone appraiser, we will definitely lose."
"I understand, Betting on Stones is to eat the good and the bad first. In the end, if you haven't found a senior stone appraiser, you can only choose from this group of people. It's a bad idea!" Wang Dong can make it through. Instantly understood the intention of Gambling Stone Square.
Bai Xiaosheng gave a high-five and praised: "Smart, not only that, Stone Gambling Fang will also use extraordinary means to retaliate in kind. There are still ten days before the Stone Gambling Conference. I believe that the entire Dongling will not be peaceful in these ten days."
Wang Dong was not pretentious. Although Beishifang could not be said to be able to cover the sky with one hand in the deserted city, he had at least become half the owner of the deserted city. If he wanted to stay in the deserted city, he would not offend Ling Yue. Not only that, because he would have to get rid of him in the future. If Kun Wu is lost, only Gambling Stone Fang can suppress the anger of the Kun family, so he must pay attention to this relationship.
He went straight to Gambling Stone Square, handed in the invitation and was taken directly to the third floor. Even though it was not his first time here, he was still shocked again. This time he was basically sure that the third floor was much more than what it seemed. Simple, if he guessed correctly, the third level should be a small world, and it might even be the foundation of the Ling family.
If this is the case, he has to admire the wisdom and courage of the Ling family. The so-called great hermit is hidden in the city. How good is the Ling family? Even if he were killed, he wouldn't be able to think of this.
But he is not an idiot. He knows some things. If he can't keep his mouth shut or lets others find out, he will die without knowing it.
Wang Dong followed the waiter slowly, but secretly he had already ordered Wuying to explore the third floor as thoroughly as possible, but he also specifically asked not to provoke the white-haired old man Bai Lao, who was definitely a terrifying figure.
In the end, the clerk actually took him to a teleportation array, which shocked him. How big was the third floor? Or maybe his guess was wrong and the foundation of the Ling family was not here.
He knew how important the stone appraiser was to a family in Dongling, so the place where the stone appraiser stayed must be the foundation of the Ling family. Only the power there was enough to ensure the safety of the stone appraiser.
The brilliance flashed, and when the scenery in front of him condensed again, he was stunned. The vast spiritual energy was like the water of the Milky Way washing over and over again, and he could almost hear the surging sound of the spiritual energy.
An ancient palace, majestic yet luxurious, was wrapped in more abundant spiritual energy, and Ling Yue was looking at him with a smile on his face at the gate of the palace.
"You're here!" Ling Yue said, her voice sweet and easy-going, like an old friend for many years.
Wang Dong nodded and said with a smile: "A beauty invites you, but she is disrespectful!"
Lingyue took a deep look at Wang Dong. Among all the people in Huangcheng who knew her identity, only the man in front of her still had a playful smile on her face, neither respectful nor afraid.
"You must already know the reason why I invited you here, right?" Ling Yue raised her eyebrows and said with deep meaning.
"Well, Miss Ling, you really think highly of me. All the people here are famous stone appraisers, and none of them want to use their brushes. It's not kind of you to call me, a lowly person, over here!" Wang Dong complained.
Lingyue smiled slightly and said: "Brother Wang, you are too modest. I have some special abilities. Your martial spirit is both strong and soft. It takes a stone appraiser ten or even twenty years to master abilities, but you originally You have it, which means you are a natural stone appraiser. I believe that no matter how high-grade the spirit stone is, you will be able to cut it perfectly!"
Wang Dong's heart skipped a beat. He knew that there were all kinds of strange gambling stones among the gambling stones. They were born different. The key was that although these types of gambling stones were extremely rare, there must be something inside. Each of these gambling stones was worth a sky-high price. .
But so far, many strange gambling stones have been found, but only a handful of them have been opened intact. Even senior stone appraisers are only 30% sure, and every time a strange gambling stone is opened, it is like going through a fierce battle. Generally, no one can recover without even thinking about it, and the mental exertion may even require several years of adjustment.
"You don't want me to drive that thing, do you?" Wang Dong said speechlessly. He does have some ability now, and has even defeated a real stone appraiser, but he has never had the extravagant hope for that kind of alien stone gambling. .
Bai Xiaosheng once warned him that the strange gambling stones are ominous. Opening them not only consumes the mind, but also risks life. The key is that the ominousness carried by the strange gambling stones can easily entangle the person who opens them. Although he promised to help the gambling stones He was busy with Fang, but he never agreed to risk his own life.
"Of course not. We won't let you go now if you want to. Do you know the price of a strange gambling stone? It cost tens of thousands of lives!" Lingyue rolled his eyes. This guy is too imaginative. , that is something that even a senior stone appraiser would not want to touch easily, but the reason why she said these words naturally revealed her expectations for Wang Dong.
If one day Wang Dong can really do it, then even she will have to lower her arrogance. This kind of character will be respected by the entire Dongling.
"Okay, I'll take you to meet the other stone appraisers first, but they didn't seem very happy when they heard that you were coming!" Ling Yue said with a smile, but it sounded a bit gloating.
Wang Dong felt depressed for a while. He didn't seem to have offended these people, right? Moreover, he is still a dabbler and cannot threaten them at all, let alone make enemies.
Lingyue seemed very happy to see Wang Dong's deflated look. She covered her mouth and said with a smile: "It took you decades to master the ability, but others are born with it. Do you think it would be your inner balance?"
Wang Dong understood. He must have felt that this person was uncomfortable in his heart, but this reason did not seem to be sufficient. He continued to look at Ling Yue and waited for the next step.
Sure enough, Lingyue continued: "Furthermore, your method of defeating the Kunwu stone appraiser has been spread among the stone appraiser circles, but no one can do it, so although you are only a half-assed person, you are definitely their biggest threaten."
"You just don't care?" Wang Dong sweated on his forehead. This was really an unforeseen disaster.
"I fully believe in your ability!" Lingyue looked back and smiled, her eyes full of brightness. Then he strode into the palace.
"Tianjian Palace!" Wang Dong raised his head, and the three large characters on the plaque were dazzling and looked extraordinary.
It's not as good as inside the palace, where the aura is so abundant that it's unimaginable, and the further inside, the more terrifying the aura becomes.
"How about it, are you shocked? Although this selection is cruel and arduous, what the stone appraisers can gain is also huge. We are not forcing it. As long as we can win this Stone Gambling Conference, our Stone Gamblers are willing to pay anything. Price!" Ling Yue's eyes suddenly became sharp.
"Tianjian Hall is divided into fifty rooms in total. From room fifty to room one, the further forward it is, the more sincerity we have in Betting Stone Square. As for what kind of room Brother Wang can live in, it depends on Brother Wang. It’s time to do something!”
Wang Dong's heart was pounding, and he looked at these rooms with eager eyes. He could feel that every room was like a spirit gathering array, filled with vast spiritual energy. This was simply heaven to him!
"No, let's start from the fiftieth room. I want to do it step by step!" He said quietly, but his voice couldn't help but tremble. He turned back to Ling Yue and said, "As long as you have these rooms, you can use them at will. There’s no limit, right?”
Lingyue was stunned for a moment, then nodded blankly.
She was a little confused. Wang Dong asked what this meant. Why didn't he just ask about the spiritual energy? The spiritual energy here is indeed abundant. Just as there is life, there must be death. Where there is prosperity, there must be decline. In most places in Dongling, the spiritual energy is depleted and scarce, but Because of this, once there is a place where spiritual energy gathers, it will be so abundant that it is almost terrifying. And their Ling family happened to control such a holy land, and then they established the Tianjian Palace.
After getting the affirmative answer, Wang Dong's heart beat rapidly. The rooms here are all made of high-quality Tiangang Rock. Once inside, they are completely isolated from the outside world and no one else knows what they are doing.
"I wonder what point I will reach if I drain all the spiritual energy in these fifty rooms?" Wang Dong thought to himself, his eyes becoming crazy and eager.
