Chapter 573 Dinghaizhu
Chen Jiu realized it. He realized it again.
He didn't know whether it was because his spirit was too strong or his comprehension was too good, or maybe the knowledge from another world helped a lot.
In short, after he read the ancestor-level comprehension of the Dark Heavenly Dao, he had a hint of enlightenment. The cognition of the other world flashed inexplicably in his mind, and he understood.
He directly touched the ultimate of the dark way of heaven, which is the black hole, a black hole that can even swallow light!
This time he planned to use the black hole directly to advance, or in other words, to directly penetrate the ultimate of the dark way of heaven.
How are black holes formed?
He was sitting cross-legged in the quiet room, thinking, when Shui Ling Tian Zun suddenly said cheerfully: "Ah Jiu, that guy is here again."
Which guy?
Chen Jiu expanded his spiritual sense and scanned, and was stunned.
The old ancestor of stealing the sky is here again, which means that he has been sitting here for a few days to gain insights.
Perhaps, it was because the ancestral-level book on the comprehension of the Dark Heavenly Dao was too thick. When he was reading it, he carefully read every word, and it must have taken him a very long time.
Now that the Thief of Heaven has arrived, he can no longer continue to remain in seclusion. This guy is a big profiteer, and he can't let others talk business with him, otherwise they will easily be led into a trap by this guy.
He stood up and flashed out of the fog of the Demon-Protecting City, saying expressionlessly, "You came pretty quickly this time."
Is this guy born unable to laugh?
The ancestor of stealing the sky suspected that Chen Jiu was the kind of person who was born cold-blooded and without emotions.
Of course he misunderstood. Chen Jiu was very friendly and always smiling in front of his own people.
However, Chen Jiu just didn't have a good face towards profiteers like him.
He smiled awkwardly and said, "I'm busy delivering the goods to you."
Are you busy purchasing goods?
Chen Jiu said calmly: "How is the business of the Divine Blood Crystal and Inner Armor?"
The old ancestor of stealing the sky nodded repeatedly and said: "The sales are pretty good. We can sell out all the goods for you even if you bring several times more."
Take your time with this, I have other goods here.
Chen Jiu thought about it and simply asked, "Did you bring what I mentioned last time?"
Without hesitation, the thief took out a pile of Five Thunder God Stones of similar size and asked carefully, "Master Jiu, what do you think of this?"
This one is not very good, it can just be used to refine a divine tool to overcome tribulations.
Originally, he thought that the Hongmeng ancestor had taken away the divine artifact of heaven, and there would be no heavenly tribulation in this world. Who would have thought that there would still be one.
Next, he would train a large number of young and strong people with spiritual roots to become gods. The number would be in the millions. One or two divine tools for transcending tribulation would definitely not be enough. Those trained alchemists and weapon refiners might have to wait in line for several years.
This would naturally not work as it would waste too much time, so he asked someone to bring some Five Thunder Stones to take a look.
To be honest, these Five Thunder Stones are really not that good.
He frowned slightly and said, "Don't you have any bigger Five Thunder God Stones? Why are all of them so small?"
The big ones are used to make big money. You are a shrewd guy and it is not easy to fool you. Even if you bring the big one to me, you can't offer the price we want. Naturally, I won't give you the big one.
The old ancestor of stealing the sky smiled slightly and said: "This thing is only used to refine the divine tool of transcending tribulation. This size is enough. If it is bigger, it will be useless."
Okay.
Chen Jiu simply asked: "How much is this?"
The old ancestor of stealing the sky said without hesitation: "This is a little cheaper for you, just one bottle of elixir for 10,000 bottles, how many do you want?"
Is this cheap?
You guys are really not just black!
The last time he bid for a piece of Five Thunder Divine Stone, he only used a total of two hundred bottles of elixirs. That was because no one competed with him for it. Even if someone did, the most he could have gotten was one thousand bottles of elixirs.
Your price is ten times more expensive than our highest auction price!
Okay, okay, it's just ten or twenty bucks anyway, no big deal. I'll pretend to be the sucker, and later I'll let you be the real sucker.
Chen Jiu pretended to hesitate for a moment, then nodded slightly and said, "Okay, I'll take twenty yuan for this."
That's small business.
The thief took out another pile of star iron and asked carefully, "Master Jiu, what do you think of this ?"
He felt that this guy had a bad temper, so he tried to be as careful as possible when speaking. After all, he was here to earn elixirs and magic pills, not to earn face. There was no need to act like a big shot. When it was time to act like a grandson, he should act like a grandson. It was no big deal.
Of course, in most worlds he is the boss, not the grandson, but he doesn't dare to act like the boss in front of this guy.
Chen Jiu looked at the star irons and couldn't help but frowned slightly and said, "Why are these star irons so small? Don't you have any bigger ones?"
We have big ones, but you'll definitely be angry if I tell you the price, so why should I embarrass myself?
The old ancestor of stealing the sky still smiled slightly and said: "This is only used to refine the magic weapon divine armor. This size is enough. If it is bigger, it will be a waste, right?"
You think I don't understand, right? This can amplify the output power. The bigger the better. What I want is a big, extra-large one, not this junk stuff.
Chen Jiu was too lazy to talk too much, he just asked directly: "What's the price?"
The thief said without hesitation: "This one is a little more expensive, but it's only 20,000 bottles of immortal pills."
Why don't you go and rob?
Such a small amount of star iron can only be sold for two hundred bottles of elixir at most in our world, you just give me twenty thousand!
Chen Jiu directly took out dozens of pieces of star iron that were larger than these and said unhappily, "Why don't I sell them to you? These are larger than yours, and I'll only charge you 20,000 bottles of elixirs, okay?"
Damn, you already have so much, what else are you buying from us?
The old ancestor of stealing the sky said awkwardly: "Master Jiu, we are doing business, we have to make some money. I can only offer you 10,000 bottles of immortal pills."
It seems that this business cannot be done. It would be a madman for me to buy star iron from you.
Chen Jiu simply put away his Star Iron and said coldly: "Forget it, I won't talk about this anymore."
All right.
The thief took out another pile of Nine Heavens Mysterious Iron and asked carefully, "Master Jiu, what do you think of these?"
I really want to beat you up. What I want is the Nine Heavens Mysterious Iron for refining the Dinghai God Needle. You give me such a small one. Do you think I can make a small golden cudgel for fun?
How to say this, he had to make his meaning clear, but he couldn't let others know that he was in urgent need of a large piece of Nine Heavens Mysterious Iron.
Chen Jiu thought about it and said simply: "Forget it. I just think the wind and waves outside are annoying. I want to stabilize them. These are too small to be a magic needle to stabilize the sea."
The wind and waves here are indeed quite strong. Although not as big as the raging waves at the edge of the chaotic energy, they are still quite big.
Patriarch Toutian looked around and suddenly took out a bead the size of an egg. He asked carefully, "Master Jiu, what do you think of this Dinghai Pearl? This one can calm the wind and waves within a radius of hundreds of miles."
There is also this thing?
This is actually possible. The chariots they use to deploy the battle array only have a radius of a hundred miles. However, one chariot is definitely not enough.
Chen Jiu thought about it, then wrapped his spiritual sense around the Dinghai Pearl and threw it to the edge of the island. Sure enough, the sea surface over a hundred miles in radius became calm as if covered by a cover.
This stuff really works!
He thought about it again, and simply pointed around the island and said, "What's the use of one bead on such a big island like mine? How many do you have there?"
The old ancestor of stealing the sky said without hesitation: "This can be customized. We can refine it in large quantities. We have those with a range of more than a hundred miles, more than a thousand miles, and more than ten thousand miles. Which one do you want and how much do you want?"
I'm afraid you also ordered it from other worlds.
Chen Jiu said expressionlessly: "It depends on the price. We have more than one island. If the price is cheap, I will buy more and stabilize the sea around all the islands. If the price is too high, I will buy less and only stabilize the wind and waves around a few islands."
Is this still a big deal?
To be honest, this Dinghaizhu is not very useful. At most, it can stabilize the wind and waves on the sea. It has no offensive power and no defensive power.
What is a suitable asking price?
Patriarch Tou Tian thought about it carefully, and then said carefully: "This small one is an ordinary divine weapon. I can give you a discount, 500 bottles of immortal pills for one. The one with a range of more than a thousand miles is a magic weapon, at least 10,000 bottles of immortal pills for one. The one with a range of more than ten thousand miles is a supreme treasure, at least 100,000 bottles of immortal pills for one."
You guys want five hundred bottles of elixir for one ordinary artifact?
You guys are really dark.
Chen Jiu estimated silently, and then said decisively: "Then I will buy the small ones. Give me 10,000. How long will it take to deliver them?"
Upon hearing this, the Thief of Heaven almost choked to death.
He found that he had made a big mistake. He should not have set such a low price for the small one. People originally wanted a lot of them, and since he set the small one cheaply, people would naturally buy the small one. After all, there are very few large islands with a radius of tens of thousands of miles, and there are not many islands with a radius of thousands of miles. The most common ones are islands with a radius of dozens of miles.
Alas, there is no way, the price has been set and can’t be raised any further. This guy has a bad temper.
The old ancestor of stealing the sky could only helplessly say: "This quantity is a bit large. I certainly can't bring it all to you at once. How about two times, 5,000 each time?"
Oh, it seems that there is another world with strong weapon refining capabilities. It can refine 5,000 furnaces of artifacts at a time, which is already quite good.
Chen Jiu nodded slightly and said, "No problem, I can do it in two times, but don't waste my time. Next time you have to bring me 5,000 pills. I'm impatient."
The thief nodded without hesitation and said, "Okay, no problem."
Chen Jiu asked expressionlessly, "There are others. Come out and let me see."
Upon hearing this, Patriarch Stealing Heaven smiled ambiguously, then raised his hand and waved.
This time he recruited more than a hundred people, but they were divided into two sides. One side had hundreds of men, women, old and young, some with spiritual roots and some without. The one with the highest cultivation had even reached the king level.
On the other side were several beauties, each of them was truly stunningly beautiful.
Chen Jiu didn't even look at the beauties. He directly asked the men, women, old and young, "Can you work?"
Those men, women, old and young all nodded and said, "We can, we can."
He had thought about it all. No matter who it was, as long as they were not too bad, they could actually buy them, because they had many kingdoms of God, and he could buy them and put them in the kingdoms of God to let them grow food, fruits and vegetables, raise poultry, livestock and common monsters, and even grow magical herbs and elixirs, and refine materials for refining equipment.
Anyway, those below the god level cannot comprehend the way of space and crack the entrance to the fairyland and divine kingdom, so they don’t have to worry about others escaping.
As long as he could buy more mortals like this to raise them in the Divine Kingdom, those mortals with spiritual roots in the Jiuling Mountain Divine Dynasty could be sent outside to be well trained. Now, because there are too many things to do in the Divine Kingdom, the mortals with spiritual roots in the Jiuling Mountain Divine Dynasty are all busy.
This time, Prime Minister Mu Chen Lang said that because 10 million young and strong kings were recruited, many tasks in the Kingdom of God that originally required two or three people could only be done by one person, and many mortals with spiritual roots were too busy to have time to practice.
If the main plane was just their world, it would be fine for mortals with spiritual roots to be busy, and it wouldn't matter much whether they practiced or not. The problem was that there were countless worlds in the main plane, and there was more than one kind of extraterritorial demons. He had to enhance the overall strength of this world. Otherwise, if a group of demons more powerful than the bloodthirsty demons came, how could they resist?
Therefore, he decided to buy more mortals to work in the Kingdom of God, so that the mortals with spiritual roots in the Jiuling Mountain Divine Dynasty would have time to practice and improve their strength.
He observed secretly and found that these mortals looked just like the honest farmers in the mortal world, not the unruly kind.
That’s about right. Anyway, he didn’t expect these mortals to become immortals or gods and help them resist the demons from outside the domain.
He thought for a moment, then asked, "What do you all do?"
"I can farm, I can raise cattle, I can raise pigs, I can grow vegetables, I can water an area of a thousand miles a day, and I can refine materials for refining equipment."
Well, it turns out that he knows how to work. Those who can’t work certainly can’t come up with so many names.
Chen Jiu nodded slightly and said, "These are OK. Give me 10 million to try first. If you are really obedient, I will buy a lot more."
Ten million mortals actually only have 100,000 bottles of elixirs, which is nothing. But if it is a lot, it is different. This guy said a lot , and it is definitely a lot.
In fact, there are not many mortals who buy the main ones. There is no other way, because it is very difficult to increase the combat effectiveness by practicing the Immortal Mansion and Divine Kingdom system. There are not many worlds in the main plane that practice the Immortal Mansion and Divine Kingdom system, and other worlds cannot accommodate too many people. Moreover, not all worlds that practice the Immortal Mansion and Divine Kingdom system want such mortals. Mortals are not easy to sell.
They have so much stuff that it fills up many immortal palaces and divine kingdoms. It would be best if we could clear them out.
The old ancestor of stealing the sky nodded repeatedly and said, "Okay, next time I will bring you 10 million. Try to be obedient, and I will give you these 100."
How dare you give me a bottle of elixir?
Chen Jiu nodded slightly, took these mortals into the kingdom of God, and then looked at those beauties with a false look.
If Tarot Lord saw this, he would definitely buy as many magic pills as possible. The problem is, he doesn't have that hobby.
He was just pretending to look at her when the ancestor-level beauty suddenly sent a telepathic message: "Buy me, I'll obey you, and there are many mortals in my kingdom of God. Most of the mortals in our world are in my kingdom of God, enough for several hundred million. If you buy me, you can save a lot of immortal pills."
Uh, there are people who promote themselves?
This ancestor-level beauty is indeed dazzlingly beautiful, but the question is, so what if she is so beautiful?
A few hundred million mortals could do it, that would be several million bottles of elixirs.
However, an ancestor-level beauty is extremely expensive, and the price of millions of bottles of magic pills is no joke. He doesn't even have that many magic pills yet.
Chen Jiu was stunned for a moment, then pretended to be calm and said: "What are the prices of these beauties? Can you introduce them to me?"
The Heaven-stealing Patriarch pretended to be generous and said, "What is our relationship? Can I still accept more of your magic pills? This True God-level one gets one thousand bottles of magic pills, this True Lord-level one gets one ten thousand bottles of magic pills, this Heavenly Venerable-level one gets one hundred thousand bottles of magic pills, and this Patriarch-level one gets one million bottles of magic pills."
This means, we can still bargain?
Chen Jiu pondered for a moment and asked again, "These beauties are not tens of thousands of years old, are they? I am less than a thousand years old. Don't make some old women who are almost dead and turn themselves into young girls to cheat me of the magic pill."
Uh, you're not even a thousand years old!
Patriarch Stealing the Sky said with some embarrassment: "These are certainly not old women who are so old that their teeth are falling out. However, there are really no women who are less than a thousand years old. They are all several thousand years old."
It’s actually nothing to be thousands of years old, I don’t do anything, I’m just looking for an excuse to lower the price.
Chen Jiu looked at the beauties expressionlessly again, then sighed slightly and said, "What a pity, those below the ancestor level are no match for the extraterritorial demons, and your ancestor level is so expensive, I can't afford it."
You bought a beauty to resist the demons from outside the domain!
Are you sick?
Upon hearing this, the old ancestor of stealing the sky was stunned. He had never seen such a way of buying beauties.
In fact, these beauties are not that expensive. He just habitually asks for a sky-high price. After all, these beauties were snatched from other worlds by the extraterritorial demons. It can be considered a no-cost business. How expensive can the price be?
Even if the demons from outside the domain really wanted to give them hundreds of thousands of bottles of magic pills, they would not accept any of them. They are not the ones who are going to make a fool of themselves.
Therefore, there is still a lot of room for bargaining, and they, who are at the ancestors level, actually did not spend that much on the magic pills.
Now it depends on how many magic pills I can extort from them.
The thief thought about it, then pretended to grit his teeth and said, "Okay, since we have cooperated on so many businesses, I will give you a discount. How about 800,000 bottles of divine pills for this ancestor-level beauty?"
Are you really cheaper?
Chen Jiu shook his head helplessly and sighed, "I don't know if she is very powerful. What if she can't even beat a Heavenly Venerable-level extraterritorial demon? Wouldn't I be at a huge loss? Besides, I don't have so many divine pills to lose."
You really bought it to resist the demons from outer space!
It’s a pity that she’s so beautiful!
The old ancestor of stealing the sky is helpless. Generally, those who want to buy a beauty will be dazzled and dizzy when they see a beauty, and they are easy to be fooled.
This guy is so good. He bought it to resist the extraterritorial demons and doesn’t care what this beauty looks like!
Well, it's good enough if it can be sold. Not many people can afford such an ancestor-level beauty. Those who can afford it are people who have no shortage of beauties. It's impossible for them to spend too many magic pills to buy a beauty.
He thought about it and said simply: "Master Jiu, why don't you name a price and I'll see if it works out."
If you ask me to name a price, I won’t be polite.
You unscrupulous businessmen usually quote prices ten times higher and try to extort money from people.
Chen Jiu pondered for a while, then gritted his teeth and said, "One hundred thousand bottles of magic pills, what do you think?"
You're cutting the price too hard. We only earned tens of thousands of bottles of magic pills.
The Heaven-stealing Patriarch said in embarrassment: "Master Jiu, no one would offer such a price as you do. This is a beauty of the Patriarch level, it should be at least 500,000 bottles of divine pills, right?"
How many magic pills do you want to extort from me?
Chen Jiu thought about it and said simply: "150,000 bottles of magic pills, I really can't afford more."
You can't even afford it, what else can I do?
Well, it’s not bad for a beauty to earn more than 100,000 bottles of magic pills.
The thief nodded helplessly and said, "Okay, Master Jiu, I'll give you this face. 150,000 bottles of magic pills are 150,000 bottles of magic pills. We still have some. Do you want more?"
What I'm interested in are the mortals in God's kingdom. Do you really think I bought them to resist the demons from outside the realm?
Chen Jiu pretended to hesitate and said, "I have to see if I can fight this. By the way, you can cast soul spells, so you should also be able to remove soul spells. It seems that removing soul spells is just a matter of thought. Please help me remove her soul spell."
Are you really sick?
The thief was stunned and said, "Master Jiu, this is a beauty of the ancestor level. Are you really going to let me remove her soul curse?"
Chen Jiu said calmly: "What's wrong with a beauty at the ancestor level? Is she as powerful as the Outer Domain Demon Ancestor? I have killed so many Outer Domain Demon Ancestors, why should I be afraid of her?"
Okay, you’re awesome!
The Thief of Heaven confirmed: "You are right. I really did remove the soul curse for him."
Chen Jiu nodded without hesitation and said, "As I said, just solve it. You won't be responsible if anything goes wrong."
The Thief of Heaven nodded slowly, then his consciousness moved, and then he spread his hands and said: "Okay, I'll solve it for her."
Chen Jiu waved slightly and said, "Come here."
That old beauty actually flew over obediently, and she was shaking with excitement.
Chen Jiu asked calmly again: "Has the soul curse been truly solved?"
The ancestor-level beauty nodded repeatedly and said, "It's solved, it's solved, thank you very much."
Okay, you’re pretty obedient.
I'm just testing you.
If you play any tricks on me, you're done for!
