Chapter 1444
Upon hearing Chen Xuan's words, Zi Mo was startled and immediately shook his head, wanting to refuse.
A top-grade Heaven-rank magic treasure containing 500,000 to 600,000 catties of Origin Liquid? Zi Mo had never imagined that this 500,000 catties of Origin Liquid would be equivalent to most of the ancestral property of Tianqing Academy.
And Chen Xuan actually risked offending the geniuses of the major tribes who were bidding against him to compete?
However, before Zi Mo could shake his head in fear and refuse, Chen Xuan made the decision.
"I hope you can achieve a high ranking in the Immortal Affinity Gathering. After all, the top 100, and even in the past, have all been granted Heavenly or Immortal-level techniques by His Majesty."
The saying goes, "A small favor is appreciated, but a large one breeds resentment."
Although they were Daoist partners, Chen Xuan still did not want his partner to feel pressured when facing him.
"This is just an early investment for me." Chen Xuan casually glanced at the group and said, "If you manage to break into the top 100 or even the top 10 with your strength and these magical treasures and obtain the Heavenly Rank or Immortal Rank techniques, you'll need to share them with me."
Upon hearing this, the pressure on Zi Mo and the others immediately decreased significantly.
“Yes, even if you are my Daoist partner, what’s mine is yours.” Zi Mo was incredibly intelligent; she understood Chen Xuan’s meaning from just one sentence. All she could do was cooperate with her Daoist partner.
After this scene was witnessed by everyone in the private room, everyone except Chen Xuan's Daoist partner looked at Chen Xuan differently.
It is extremely rare to find someone willing to pay such a huge price for a Daoist partner, even among those in the Nascent Soul Realm and the Void Reversal Realm.
Daoist partners are simply people who rely on each other's hearts on the long road of cultivation, cultivating the Great Dao together—cultivating the Great Dao together is the primary goal, and the secondary goal is secondary; everything revolves around transcending tribulations and achieving immortality.
"Junior Brother Chen Xuan, I have a younger sister..."
“Brother Chen Xuan, my younger sister has been as beautiful as a flower since childhood. Now she is sixteen years old, just the right time to find a husband!”
……
Immediately, Chen Xuan's friends, who were familiar with him, started teasing and joking with him.
Chen Xuan rolled his eyes at Senior Brother Kaixuan, Senior Brother Shanhe, and the others.
However, during their conversation, the price of the Ninefold Tower of Absolute Sorrow soared to 680,000 catties of source liquid.
All parties made bids without holding back, causing the Void-Reversing Immortals in the temporarily rented private rooms below to look enviously at the younger generation making bids—the juniors in the Nascent Soul Realm, whose casual bids were far beyond what the Void-Reversing Immortals could match.
At this moment, the two sides vying for the Nine-Story Tower are Xuanxiao Ziling, the number one person on the Green List, and an ordinary-looking young man who keeps bidding and shows no respect for Xuanxiao Ziling.
Just as everyone was wondering who dared to be so presumptuous, the Daoist soldier in armor who had been standing quietly behind the Azure Sky Pavilion spoke up: "According to the intelligence we have, this person is Qinglongzi, the number one person on the Azure Dragon Star outside the realm."
Everyone looked at the Taoist soldier in armor who had spoken.
The man didn't care; he was just following orders to accompany them and introduce the strengths of each side when the time was right: "Near my Xuanxiao Great World, there are four medium-sized stars and twelve small stars around us. Among them, the four medium-sized stars have been designated by His Majesty as the Azure Dragon, White Tiger, Vermilion Bird, and Black Tortoise Stars."
The man pondered for a moment and continued, "These four medium-sized stars and twelve small stars are all under the rule of the quasi-saint city, Nine Dragons City. Compared to the relatively peaceful environment of our Xuanxiao Great World, the cultivators of the four star worlds kill each other and fight fiercely among their peers. Therefore, the fact that this person was able to break through the encirclement on Azure Dragon Star and be represented by Azure Dragon Star to participate in the Immortal Fate Gathering across star regions shows that his strength should not be underestimated."
As the man spoke, he looked solemnly at Qing Tian Yu'er, the tribe's most beautiful daughter, and said, "This person is a true hero who rose from the ashes of battle and bloodshed. If you encounter someone like him at the Immortal Destiny Conference, you must treat him with utmost caution."
Upon hearing this, everyone in the private room, including Chen Xuan, nodded respectfully. This person was able to patiently explain the distribution of forces around Xuanxiao Star, which must be on the orders of Qingtian Marquis. Otherwise, how could a Void-Reversing Immortal be so polite to these juniors?
"Thank you, senior, for informing me."
"There's no need for that. I'm only here as an avatar. You all represent the Marquis and Qingtian County at this grand event. Your success in making it to the top ranks brings honor to the Marquis," the armored man said somewhat coldly.
What a perfect example of separating public and private matters! As a result, Chen Xuan and his younger generation had no choice but to act according to his wishes.
Chen Xuan then joined the bidding process.
In fact, Chen Xuan estimated that the final price of this Nine-Layered Tower of Despair should be around 1.6 million catties of Origin Liquid. However, Chen Xuan overlooked the applicability of this magic weapon to cultivators. Even considering Xuanxiao Ziling and that Azure Dragon Prince, the desire to compete for this Earth-rank array was merely a means to trap and defeat the enemy, not something that they absolutely had to compete for.
Chen Xuan's sudden entry into the bidding for over a million catties of Origin Liquid caused the geniuses in the private rooms of various kings and nobles to take notice. Many even doubted whether this unknown sixth-ranked member of the Green List was qualified to offer a million catties of Origin Liquid.
When the source liquid broke through to 1.5 million catties, the ordinary-looking young man in the Supreme Room of the Outer Domain frowned and looked at Chen Xuan, who was still sticking to his bid, and said: "1.5 million catties is the upper limit that the Azure Dragon King supports for me. It's a pity that such a top-grade earth-rank formation that can be set up by a single person is being wasted."
With Qinglongzi withdrawing from the bidding, Xuanxiao Ziling was now the only remaining competitor for this precious treasure against Chen Xuan.
"Room number 98 has bid again: 1.52 million catties of source liquid!"
Wan Fu was quite excited at this moment. After seeing the bid, he shouted out, "A top-grade Earth-rank formation that can be cast by a single person, combining offense and defense. With this treasure, I will surely shine in the Immortal Fate Assembly, and may even break into the top 100 and obtain a Heaven-rank magic treasure bestowed by His Majesty! That is a Heaven-rank technique that can be freely taught to others!"
Wan Fu was still trying to provoke him, but unfortunately, 1.52 million catties of source liquid were pressing down on it, even Xuan Xiao Ziling frowned a little - the reason he bid for the Nine-Story Tower was that he thought a single person could cast a top-grade earth-rank array, it was not a treasure he was determined to get, but he was unwilling to lose to Chen Xuan in the first head-on confrontation, so he could only grit his teeth and press the bidding array again.
This time, the price of the original liquid jumped directly from 1.52 million catties to 1.6 million catties.
"If you want to obtain this treasure, you will need to pay a sufficient price." Xuanxiao Ziling said calmly, looking at Chen Xuan opposite him with a cold smile.
However, just when he thought he was sure to win, the price of the Nine-Story Tower changed again, to 1.61 million catties of source liquid.
"This kid, is he out of his mind?!"
"More than 1.6 million catties of source liquid, let's see how he gets it out!"
"Just wait and see. When the envoy delivers the treasure, he won't get the source liquid in return. Hmph, that'll be a good show."
Three breaths later, the bidding was final. Wan Fu excitedly shouted, "The top-grade Earth-rank magic treasure, the Ninefold Tower of Absolute Sorrow, has been won by Fellow Daoist Chen Xuan from room number ninety-eight, the Azure Marquis's private room!"
(Just one picture, hoping for one person to support this out of love.)
