Chapter 2906 - 585: Betting Opportunity

Immortal energy surged rapidly within Cao Zhen, causing the surrounding void to tremble. The next moment, his figure appeared in the distance as he flew swiftly towards the far end of the Astral Domain Secret Territory.

With three Daluo Golden Immortals together, he stood no chance.

As for Immortal Lord Bing Hua, she initially cooperated with him to get the treasure of the Wild Immortal Monarch.

If she saw three Daluo Golden Immortals chasing him, she would surely join the pursuit at once.

Cao Zhen circled around, shook off the three Daluo Golden Immortals of Immortal Lord Qiong E, and temporarily decided not to think about eliminating them. Instead, he began searching here, hoping for any fortuitous encounters.

But even if he did not look for them, they came looking for him.

Two hours later, Immortal Lord Qiong E and the three Daluo Golden Immortals appeared in his sight.

"You lot, I’m not looking for trouble with you, yet you come to trouble me."

Cao Zhen turned and ran, this time heading straight out of the Astral Domain Secret Territory. If he stayed within, these guys would definitely keep bothering him.

Staying would be meaningless; it would be better to leave.

"I handed over five Peace Commands, and after staying here for just this while, I have to leave. Actually, it should be ten, since I also compensated Immortal Lord Wu Fa with five Peace Commands."

Immortal Lord Qiong E, Immortal Lord You Ying, and Immortal Lord Yan Yi would surely not just let this go.

As Cao Zhen walked out of the Astral Domain Secret Territory, he pondered.

Compared to the Daluo Golden Immortals, he was still lacking. The only place he could kill Daluo Golden Immortals was the Astral Domain Secret Territory. But those guys never separated within, where would he have a chance to act?

Or perhaps...

"No, it seems there is a chance in this city. There’s an arena here, after all."

A sudden gleam appeared on Cao Zhen’s face; if there’s a chance to bring those guys to the arena, he could defeat them.

After all, on the arena, no one can use immortal energy.

Without using immortal energy, just relying on swords and blades, with his physical strength, what does it matter if the opponent is a Daluo Golden Immortal?

However, he shouldn’t agree too readily, best to think of a way to make them propose arena combat on their own.

Or perhaps...

Find other cultivators to propose arena battles, although other cultivators seem also hesitant to propose arena fights.

Cao Zhen walked forward, full of headache.

Unknowingly, he had reached the arena grounds.

This city’s arena only has two arenas, both empty at the moment.

Understandably so, everyone here is at least Taiyi Golden Immortal level; if there were conflicts, they wouldn’t duel in arenas where immortal energy couldn’t be used.

Unless both sides had extremely strong physical bodies and immense confidence.

Although no one stood on the arena, ghostly figures remained, patrolling the area and guarding the premises.

Assessing the arena before him, Cao Zhen felt something seemed missing, yet for a moment, he couldn’t figure out what was lacking.

Continuing forward, he suddenly understood upon reaching his temporary lodging.

"I know what’s missing. There’s no place for betting around the vicinity. How can arena battles go without bets?

If so, should I organize betting? But if I set up betting, would other cultivators wager? To be a broker requires strength, one must gain trust from other cultivators.

If other cultivators wagered a hundred Peace Commands, I couldn’t even produce corresponding Peace Commands.

More so, if I placed a bet, wouldn’t the ghosts from Peace City cause trouble? Even if not, they’d demand protection fees which would be a hassle.

Or perhaps I should collaborate directly with them?"

The more Cao Zhen pondered, the more he realized this might be an opportunity. Though he hadn’t been in Peace City long, he noticed the ghosts were eager for Peace Commands.

Perhaps like what Immortal Lord Wu Fa mentioned before, the ghosts needed Peace Commands for cultivation.

If granting them more Peace Commands were possible, why would they refuse?

As a patrol of ghostly figures passed with regret, Cao Zhen approached their leader and asked, "Would you like to earn more Peace Commands?"

The ghost leading the patrol halted immediately upon hearing him, turned back to look at Cao Zhen with a brief dullness, then held out his hand.

Cao Zhen was suddenly bewildered, wondering what the ghost meant, directly demanding Peace Commands?

Did the ghost think Cao Zhen would hand over Peace Commands just like that?

"No, I’m not just going to give you Peace Commands directly, but I know a way for you to get more Peace Commands."

As Cao Zhen finished speaking, the ghost captain looked at him coldly, extending his hand once more.

Around them, other ghostly figures turned their heads, each holding a dark weapon, aiming collectively at Cao Zhen.

Cao Zhen quickly explained, "No, I’m not deceiving you, I truly have a way for you to obtain more Peace Commands. Your leader surely needs those Peace Commands, right?

If you follow what I say, you can get more Peace Commands, and your leader will surely appreciate you more.
