Chapter 340: Purchase, Battle Flag
Chapter 340: Purchase, Battle Flag
"Everyone, what's the matter?" Jian Yi asked.
"Thank you for your courtesy, fellow Taoist." The leading woman's voice was very cold, without any warmth.
Different from other female cultivators, this woman exudes an icy murderous aura from her entire body. She is as tall as Jian Yi, and her clothes seem to be some kind of specific attire, tight-fitting, and pitch black from top to bottom, just like a black crow!
Even so, this woman's beauty was rare, and even better than Jiang Luosheng's. In addition to five or six people from the Qiankun Immortal Sect, there were also a dozen young male cultivators with extraordinary bearing surrounding her.
"What's the matter?" Jian Yi asked again indifferently.
"I am Zhu Cifeng from the Qiankun Immortal Sect. I was the last person to compete with you for the heart of Mother Earth at the auction." The woman's icy voice spoke again.
Zhu Cifeng, the granddaughter of the chief criminal elder of Qiankun Xianzong, is also a member of the sect's law enforcement team. She is decisive and ruthless, and the sect's disciples love and fear her. This is also the origin of her strong murderous aura. However, because of her peerless beauty and unique temperament that is very different from ordinary female cultivators, more than one top genius from the major Xianzongs has a good impression of her, and she is quite appealing.
The private rooms on the second and third floors of the Wanbaolou auction are different from those on the first floor. They can block out outside perception, and the sounds made when bidding are started will also be masked by a specific formation, making it impossible to determine whether the bids are from a man or a woman.
This is a protective measure taken by the auction to prevent someone from relying on their status or strength to suppress others from bidding. At the auction, everything depends on financial strength. Of course, this is only limited to the auction. Outside of this place, they will no longer care.
"Oh? So you are the one who made me spend more than one million spirit stones." Jian Yi crossed his arms in front of his chest and said coldly.
Zhu Cifeng's cold expression froze. She did want to win the Earth Mother's Heart, but Jian Yi showed his wealth and determination, so she didn't have enough spirit stones, so she had to give up. Now, she just wanted to settle for the second best, hoping to buy half of the Earth Mother's Heart from Jian Yi.
If Jian Yi paid extra spirit stones and left through the auction's special passage, they wouldn't be able to stop him. But Jian Yi didn't know about this, and he didn't care about being stopped, so Zhu Cifeng was able to intercept him by relying on his identity and getting the news from the auction's attendants.
Now that she has revealed her identity, unless they are from the same immortal sect, they would not dare to offend her and would obediently give her face and make a good relationship with her. Zhu Cifeng did not expect Jian Yi to speak so bluntly and mercilessly.
Raising his hand to stop the angry man who was about to scold Jian Yi, Zhu Cifeng said, "I am willing to pay one million spirit stones in exchange for half of the Earth Mother's Heart in your hand. Please help me."
Jian spent two million spirit stones to buy the item, while the other party offered one million spirit stones to take half the volume of the Earth Mother's Heart. This cannot be considered as bullying.
"Sorry! This thing is of great use to me and I don't want to give half of it away." Jian Zhizhi said in the middle.
Zhu Cifeng's face darkened. She didn't need the item, but she came here to buy it at the request of a good friend. She didn't expect that Cheng Yaojin would show up halfway. Just asking for half was her biggest concession, otherwise she couldn't explain to that close friend.
"But..." Jian Yi suddenly dragged out his tone. Zhu Cifeng thought that things could still turn around, but Jian Yi's next words made her stunned.
"If you are willing to compensate me for the extra 1.25 million spirit stones I spent, I am still willing to be your friend!" Jian Yi's face was serious, but there was a hint of teasing in his eyes.
The scene was quiet for a moment.
"Where did you come from, you wild boy? How dare you speak nonsense to the fairy? You are courting death!"
"You are totally ignorant. You are shameless and want to die!"
"Get down on your knees, you bastard!"
……
At this moment, no matter how good-tempered or well-mannered the geniuses around Zhu Cifeng were, they could not help it and attacked together, almost at the same time, with all kinds of killing moves and magical powers rushing towards Jian Yi.
Although Panlong Ancient City forbids cultivators to fight in private and they can only go to the arena to resolve conflicts and grudges, the people before them are either from the Immortal Sect or closely connected with the Immortal Sect and have strong backgrounds. Just like the genius of the Stone Clan at the Genius Banquet that day, they acted brazenly and without any scruples.
Rules are for the weak to follow. The strong don't care too much about them. As long as you are strong enough, you can trample on the rules at will or make your own rules.
Even if these people really caused a big commotion and attracted the attention of the city's law enforcement officers, they would only be dealt with lightly and given a few verbal reprimands at most.
The followers behind Jian Yi teleported to Jian Yi's front, and the mighty monk's aura exploded. With just a flick of his sleeve, all the overwhelming attacks were defeated and turned into countless points of light. At the same time, his aura, like the abyss and the sea, pushed back everyone except Zhu Cifeng.
Everyone's faces were horrified! These people were not the most powerful characters. They were either dependent on other top geniuses and served Zhu Cifeng on their behalf. After all, even if they admired her, they would not slack off in their cultivation and stay around her like slaves all day long.
Or they are willing to give without asking for anything in return, just to stay by the woman's side and help her solve her problems (in Blue Star's words, they are called bootlickers).
After shocking everyone, Jian Yi's followers retreated obediently behind Jian Yi.
In Zhu Cifeng's surprised and shocked eyes, Jian Yi seemed to think of something interesting, and suddenly smiled and said, "I'll give you a chance. If you or any helper you find can defeat this subordinate of mine, I can give you half of the Earth Mother's Heart."
Then, he turned around and sent a voice message to his followers: "You should know that you two can't go back this time. Death here is your only fate. However, after all, I have carefully selected you two from among the thousands of sea creatures.
In terms of numbers alone, all the disciples of the Immortal Sect combined are less than 10% of the number of the Sea Clan. If nothing unexpected happens, your strength should be above that of the top geniuses of the Immortal Sect.
Before you die, make a scene in Panlong Ancient City! Kill all those immortal sects' geniuses and bring glory to your sea race, how about that? "
The follower stared at him for a moment before saying, "You want me to raise the battle flag?!"
In Panlong Ancient City, once the battle flag was raised, it was a notice to all fellow cultivators that he would sweep away all opponents and establish a reputation of being invincible. This was a provocation to all his peers, the news would spread immediately, and countless people would rush over like ferocious beasts smelling blood.
In the past hundred years, only a handful of people dared to raise the battle flag in Panlong Ancient City, and none of them could stand to the end. Unless you have an overwhelming advantage, as you fight more and more times and your opponents become stronger, all your magical powers and secrets will be exposed, and later challengers can take targeted measures to suppress you until you are defeated.
Moreover, anyone at any level of cultivation can challenge you. For example, if a cultivator of the first level of the Earthly Gang Realm comes to challenge you, then the person who raises the battle flag must suppress his own cultivation to the first level of the Earthly Gang Realm to fight. Otherwise, with his great cultivation, the younger generation of the Twelve Immortal Sects can only find dozens of people at most. How can he be considered to have swept away all the younger generation? !
