“Alright then!” Tang Hao thought about it carefully and nodded. His eyes revealed a hint of greed and passion. When the old man saw this, he was amused. “It’s done!” He thought to himself and was overjoyed. “Hurry up! The talisman is over there, hurry up and take it off to save me. This way, you can get the treasure earlier!” He said impatiently. “Wait!” Tang Hao extended his hand and shouted. “What’s wrong?” The old man was stunned. Tang Hao grinned. His smile was pure, and he rubbed his fingers together. “What do you mean?” The old man was dumbfounded. “Hey! Of course, he had to pay a deposit first! I’ll be more at ease then, right? do you have any treasures now? I’ll take them all. Give me one and I’ll get to work immediately!” Tang Hao said. “Don’t tell me you have nothing! This won’t do!” Tang Hao said with a disdainful expression. “I …” The old man’s tone was sluggish. He wanted to fly into a rage, but on second thought, what this guy said seemed to be very reasonable, and he had no way to refute it. It was common sense to pay a deposit to show one’s sincerity before working! However, he was troubled because he didn’t have a single treasure with him. “I really didn ‘t! Then I’ll be leaving! You can just lie down there slowly!” Tang Hao said, then turned around and left. As he walked, he mumbled,”you can wait slowly. This place has long been a forbidden area outside. After thousands of years, no one might come here. Once you pass this village, there won’t be such a shop anymore.” When the old man heard this, he immediately became anxious. “Fellow Daoist! Fellow Daoist! Please wait, everything can be discussed!” He hurriedly shouted,”don’t think that I’m just a wisp of remnant soul right now. I’m not weak either. If I pay a small price, I can still obtain the treasure.” “Just you wait, I’ll get one for you!” With that, he dove into the ice and disappeared. A moment later, he came out with a pot in his hand. It was pitch-black and surrounded by a dazzling treasure light. “Aiyo! I’m so tired! I’m almost half dead!” He said, panting. “Fellow Daoist, take a look at this treasure. What do you think of it? it’s called the sea swallowing pot. It’s a very powerful high-grade treasure. The space inside can hold an entire ocean.” As he spoke, he handed over the treasure. Tang Hao was overjoyed when he received it, but he put on a calm front. “It’s alright! It’s just so-so!” The old man’s face twitched when he heard that. Damn it, he had spent a lot of effort to dig it out, but this guy was still a little disdainful. He really needed a beating! However, since he needed this guy’s help, he couldn’t lose his temper. He could only force a smile and say,””Can we go now?” Tang Hao quickly put away the treasure and smiled.””I’m a man of my word. Let’s go, lead the way!” “Come! This way!” The old man hurriedly floated forward. A moment later, a small mountain appeared in the distance. Upon a closer look, it was not a mountain but a huge purple stone. Half of it was buried in the ice, and the other half was exposed. Its appearance was a little rugged, and a golden light bloomed from the top. The old man pointed at the golden light.”Look, that’s the talisman I was talking about. As long as you take it off, I’ll be able to escape!” Tang Hao’s eyes narrowed as he looked at the golden light. However, the light was too strong for him to see what it looked like. As he got closer, he could feel that there was a noble Qi coming from the talisman that was as brilliant as the might of heaven. Hiss! Tang Hao took a deep breath. He was shocked. He had never seen such a powerful aura before. The Dao Lake had existed for at least twenty to thirty thousand years, and yet the talisman was still so powerful. It was clear that it was of a very high grade. Then, he frowned as he noticed that something was wrong. This was a noble spirit, something that seemed to suppress evil spirits. Could it be that this guy was a super old demon? “There’s indeed a ghost!” Tang Hao was even more certain of his previous thoughts. What being harmed by a villain? he was clearly suppressing it on behalf of the heavens! This old devil was extremely cunning, so how could he really repay him? if he were really released, he would be swallowed in the blink of an eye. Tang Hao’s mind raced, but he did not show it on his face. He pretended to be confused.””How do I expose this?” “It’s very simple. Just climb up and pull him down!” The old man said. “Oh!” Tang Hao nodded.”By the way, can’t you go over?” “Hey! This is to suppress me. Do you think I can get close to it?” The old man said in a bad mood. “You’re right!” “Yes,” Tang Hao replied, but he was secretly happy. “Argh! By the way, when you’re climbing up, it might be a little difficult, but you just have to grit your teeth and pull through!” The old man continued. “Oh! Then I’ll go! Senior, wait for me! I’ll let you out now! Don’t forget the treasure you promised me! You must keep your word!” Tang Hao patted his chest and set off valiantly. “Hey, hey! I still remember! Don’t worry!” The old man replied, but he was laughing in his heart. So what if this kid is vigilant? he still fell for my trap! Tang Hao laughed in his heart. What an idiot! Just wait to be fooled by me! Just like that, he walked further and further, approaching the huge rock. Suddenly, the huge rock shook and an invisible force came pressing down. Ah! Tang Hao screamed in pain and fell in an exaggerated position. The old man was full of joy, looking forward to this silly boy being able to uncover the talisman! However, he did not expect such a thing to happen. His eyes widened and he was dumbfounded. F * ck! What was going on? He had clearly just gotten close, and the pressure was still very weak. Why was this kid so weak? Also, the fall was too exaggerated! “S-senior, it’s so heavy! I can’t hold on much longer!” Tang Hao struggled to his feet. He gritted his teeth and looked like he was about to die. His acting was so realistic that the old man believed it with one look. “How could this be? it shouldn’t be! That’s right, could it be that the stupid talisman sensed the threat of this guy, so it went all out from the beginning? This is going to be troublesome!” The old man muttered, his expression becoming serious. “Fellow Daoist, can you still hold on?” The old man shouted. “Senior, don’t worry. I’ll keep my promise. I’m a man of my word! Today, even if I have to give up my life, I will do it!” Tang Hao said confidently. He “struggled” to stand up and stumbled forward. The old man was shocked. He had never thought that this silly boy was actually so upright! “He’s really a good person!” The old man muttered. He suddenly felt that the figure had become taller and bigger, and he was a little touched. Just like that, Tang Hao walked all the way to the rock. Finally, he could not take it anymore and collapsed. “Good luck, fellow Daoist!” The old man shouted anxiously. “Senior, I really can’t do it anymore. If this continues, I can only burn my blood essence, but that will consume too much of my energy. I don’t know if I can make it.” Tang Hao shouted. The old man was extremely anxious and said,”fellow Daoist, how about this?” You can burn it, just burn it. I’ll go get a few more treasures for you as compensation. What do you think?” “Well …” Tang Hao looked troubled. He thought about it for a long time, then nodded.”Alright!” Senior, don’t worry, I will definitely do it. ” “Good, good! Just you wait!” The old man went back into the ice, and after a while, he came out again with a golden sword.
