Mo Xie continued his way inside.
It had been approximately an hour after he went in, encountering beast after beast.
Mo Xie had already killed a more than twenty bronze ranked spiritual beast and a silver ranked spiritual beast.
He couldn't pick anything up, hence, he left them there alone, if they are still intact later, he will get them.
Mo Xie is about to reach the top of a mountain.
He looked at the peak and saw a single flower illuminating a darkish blue light.
A smile formed on Mo Xie's lips as he continued, arriving there, Mo Xie saw a cave entrance.
He can already feel the glare that's coming out of it, that is where the 'snake' is lurking.
"You can come out now, I know you can understand human language..."
Mo Xie paused for a bit and continued: "Or do you want me to use the Primordial Beast Language?"
A fierce light can be seen inside the cave as Mo Xie finished his words, slowly, a silhouette of a reptile's head walks out of the head, following its long body, but this snake has legs!
"Human, even though you know the Primordial Beast Languag-"
Before the snake could finish its words, Mo Xie opened his mouth, the tone of the words came out couldn't be identified, the snake was about to speak that Mo Xie only knew of this language by name, but he suddenly spoke it like it is his native language.
"Hmmp! So you really know about it, but Human, do not dare to steal which that belong to me."
The snake spoke domineeringly, yet Mo Xie chuckles and continued: "No matter how many Extreme Cold Shadow Lotus you feed on, you will never be able to transcend to Black Gold stage, unless someone, like me, helps you break through."
"How can a mere mortal, like you help me?" The snake mockingly asked, at first, it wielded great hostility towards Mo Xie, but someone that knows the Primordial Beast Language can either be a great warrior or a knowledgeable person.
"Dragon... Ascending... Pill..."
Three words escaped Mo Xie's lips, each he emphasized slowly.
Hearing these three words, the 'snake' shuddered.
"You have already tapped into the memories of your ancestors, I bet you already know of these three words, Taishe Sky Dragon."
The Taishe Sky Dragon shuddered, this young man even know of his race, he looked at Mo Xie, afraid of what he is going to tell him next.
"It seems you have already figured out a lot and decided to not speak." Mo Xie chuckles before he continued.
"Then, do you still plan to keep this flower? or have you decided on other things?"
"I want something in exchange."
"I`m listening." Mo Xie smiled, he clearly has the advantage from the start, although it will be hard, he can still kill this Taishe Sky Dragon, using the spear intent, although he will pay a heavy price for it, he can most definitely do so, but instead, he is thinking of something else.
"So long as you bring me the Dragon Ascending Pill, I will give this lotus to you, it still has 9 seeds in it."
"Ay-ay, you think a mere Lotus flower can be traded to the Dragon Ascending Pill? are you jesting me?" Mo Xie kept on smiling, the Taishe Sky Dragon is a favored dragon of the Fire element, and so long as they reached a certain rank, they can use another element, the lightning power.
"Then... what do you want?"
Mo Xie pondered for a bit before speaking: "How about you be my servant for five... no... six years, after that, you will be free to go."
"Impossible! I am the ruler of this peak, hence, I ask for another request."
"Then, I don't want to have a trade with you, I'd rather not have a servant that only wants to rule a single peak, that will shame my prestige in the future." Mo Xie spoke.
Clearly, a mere Taishe Sky Dragon is something he'll just kill randomly in his previous life, all sorts of divine creatures wanted to be his slave, and now, a mere Taishe Sky Dragon is demanding something from him? if he doesn't need some bodyguard, he would definitely not even look at a monster like this.
Amongst the 624 Heavenly beasts, the Taishe Sky Dragon is ranked 623, what kind of being was Mo Xie? would he even bat an eye on him?
But Mo Xie is currently powerless, he can only unleash the might of a peak mortal's power plus the weapon intents.
Sword Intent, Spear Intent, all sorts of intent, Mo Xie had already mastered, Weapon Intent is the first threshold to weapon mastering, with it, Mo Xie can cleave the lives of mere gold ranked pract.i.tioners until the 5-star ones, from the 6th to the 10-star gold ranked pract.i.tioners, he will be unable to deal with them with ease.
But if Mo Xie is willing to risk his life to kill one, there is no clear outcome, especially if the other party also have the art of Weapon Intent.
The second level is Weapon Heart, but he needed to have at least the power of a Black Gold ranked cultivator if he wants to use such a powerful art, with that, Mo Xie would at least need a backup plan.
With a Taishe Sky Dragon at its breaking through phase from the 10-star Gold Ranked demon beast, it would become a 1-star Black Gold ranked demon beast immediately if it successfully breaks through, Mo Xie will have a good bodyguard in this low-level continent unless they deal with a Black Gold ranked pract.i.tioner, or even more harder, a Black Gold ranked soul pract.i.tioner.
Mo Xie started to walk off, but as soon as he did, the dragon spoke.
"Please wait, I will follow you from now on, but I wish to know how will you acquire the Dragon Ascending Pill?"
Mo Xie still continued walking away, the Dragon is panicking, if he was tricked by Mo Xie, he will serve under him from six years, but if he is telling the truth and Mo Xie left, then he had definitely missed a great opportunity.
'I will just kill him after the six years if he is lying.'
The Dragon thought as it crawled towards Mo Xie and spoke.
"I will become your servant for six years." With a bowed head, it started to operate its spiritual energy, a seal appeared in its head.
"Master only need to dro-" The Dragon was about to instruct Mo Xie, but before he could finish its words, Mo Xie pulled out a dagger from his sleeves, slicing his finger, four drops of blood immediately fell from his fingertips as it landed on top of the Dragon's seal.
'I guess if he knows so much, he would also know about this...'
"I vow with the heaven as a witness, I will become this person's servant for six years, and if it ever is violated by me, I will be struck by the Celestial Lightning to death!"
The Dragon roared its vow to the sky, as it finished, a dark cloud appeared as nine lightning boomed in the sky.
The Seal envelops the Dragon's body as it started to sink in its whole body.
Mo Xie smiled at the dragon and spoke: "Okay, good, now bring me that Extreme Cold Shadow Lotus and the Dark Flame Lotus inside your cave."
The Dragon looked at Mo Xie in astonishment, he even knows of the Dark Flame Lotus inside his dwelling?
"Naturally, I know of such low-level intelligence, if you try to eat a herb with extreme Yin energy without any herbs near you that contains extreme Yang energy, you will most probably die in just about a day, and for a Taishe Sky Dragon, only the Dark Flame Lotus has the compatibility that can suppress the Ying energy from the Extreme Cold Shadow Lotus."
The Dragon is speechless again, every word that Mo Xie had spoken is true, but after a while, the dragon shook its head as he spoke: "I will get it, master."
Although the Taishe Sky Dragon is a flying dragon, it can only do so, after breaking to the next rank after Dark Gold level, Earth ranked demon beast, but that will be for the future.
Mo Xie smiled as he sighed, so long as he has power and knowledge, everything will still bow down to him, but after a while, Mo Xie's smile vanished: "Will I still pick to go for the same path I have done in the past?"
