Chapter 921: Force Buy and Sale, Scram, Leave the Yin and Yang Ring
“How about this? I am willing to pay up to three billion spiritual marrow. What’d you say?” Yun Qianliu made a huge offer.
Three billion spiritual marrow was more than enough to buy the best quality Grand Daoist Weapon, or maybe even a Heavenly Daoist Weapon.
Aside from its Moonlight Fox ident.i.ty, Lil Fox’s cultivation level was only a Minor Daoist Celestial.
“I said I’m not selling the fox.”
Chu Kuangren was not even bothered by thirty billion, let alone three billion.
“Five billion!” Yun Qianliu increased the offer with furrowed brows.
Nevertheless, Chu Kuang was not moved.
“One piece of Immortal Crystal!” Hong Xue finally voiced his offer.
His offer surprised everyone else.
“An Immortal Crystal?”
“Oh my goodness. The offer is ridiculous.”
An Immortal Crystal, as its name suggested, was a crystal that contained extremely pure spiritual power. A piece of Immortal Crystal would be more or less equal to tens of billions of spiritual marrow.
More importantly, it was called the Immortal Crystal because the crystal could be used to gain insights and strengthen one’s source energy!
Albeit ineffective, it was a great temptation to those cultivators who were not Immortals and had yet to gain insights into their sources. Even the strongest Heavenly Daoist Celestial would be moved by the offer.
“I’ll be frank with you, Daoist Brother. This Moonlight Fox is a rare beast, and I want to buy her.” Hong Xue went straight to the point.
Chu Kuangren said, “When the Moonlight Fox grows up, it’ll be worth more than a few million pieces of Immortal Crystal.”
“I can only offer one piece of Immortal Crystal right now,” Hong Xue said.
“Brother Hong, I think you should stop wasting your breath with him. No matter what, he has to sell the Moonlight Fox today,” Yun Qianliu said with a scoff.
Jian Sanjue’s and the others’ faces turned grim upon hearing his words.
“Daoist Brothers, why argue over a fox? It’s like children squabbling,” Jian Sanjue said with a deep voice.
“What do you know? This is a Moonlight Fox!” Yun Qianliu said with a grin.
Some civilizations might even start a civil war because of that beast.
Moreover, they were heading into the Fragmented Immortal World. If they had the Moonlight Fox with them, it would be of huge help to them.
“It seems like you guys are going to force me to sell it. All I can say is…” Chu Kuangren chuckled before he showed an icy cold glare. “Scram!”
The look on Yun Qianliu, Hong Xue, and the others turned gloomy when Chu Kuangren shunned them away, especially Yun Qianliu. He argued coldly, “We can do it the easy way or the hard way, but it seems like you’ve chosen the hard way!”
He reached out to the Moonlight Fox behind Chu Kuangren, attempting to s.n.a.t.c.h it away.
At that moment, Emperor qi of a peak-stage Minor Daoist Celestial surged out from Lil Fox.
“A mere Minor Daoist Celestial and you dare be presumptuous in front of me?”
Yun Qianliu scoffed and simply threw a punch at Lil Fox.
A loud bang sounded, and a figure was sent flying backward. It was Yun Qianliu! He held onto his shaking arm with a look of fear on his face.
“That raw physical strength… You’re a cultivator specialized in physical cultivation?”
Chu Kuangren pulled his fist back and was too lazy to answer the question.
Hong Xue, on the other hand, reacted with a serious look on his face. “I see you are strong and indeed a worthy opponent!”
Then, the energy on him started to surge, and a terrifying aura of a Daoist Celestial started to emerge.
His cultivation level was at the peak-stage Great Daoist Celestial Realm!
He was one step shy from entering the Heavenly Daoist Celestial Realm. Compared to Planet Jin’s First Seat, Planet Zi’s First Seat was a lot stronger. For a moment there, Chu Kuangren even sensed the ripple of the source energy from the man.
That meant Hong Xue had gained insights into the source.
An Immortal Progeny like him already possessed powers qualified to be conferred a t.i.tle of a Supreme.
“Eight Desolate Tranquil Ocean Fist!”
Hong Xue shouted. As he raised his fists, an enormous amount of Emperor qi gushed out and shook the stars around.
The punch he threw felt like it could desolate the widest land and calm the roughest ocean.
On top of that, it even contained a strand of source energy.
It was enough to rival even a Heavenly Daoist Celestial.
However, Chu Kuangren reacted calmly to the punch.
Following a loud bang, a huge amount of Emperor qi and Hong Xue’s source energy instantly dissipated, and Hong Xue was sent about a hundred kilometers backward.
“What?!”
“He is definitely a Supreme Immortal Progeny!”
The crowd was left in awe, and gasps rang out in succession.
The look on Hong Xue was grimmer than ever.
He used seventy percent of his strength in that punch, and yet Chu Kuangren fended him off so easily.
Chu Kuangren’s strength was beyond his comprehension and his own strength.
“Brother Hong, let’s take him together!” Yun Qianliu said loudly.
“No!” Hong Xue already knew the difference in strength between them, so he tried to stop Yun Qianliu. However, it was too late.
Yun Qianliu had activated some kind of Immortal Technique that allowed him to move toward Chu Kaungren like a bolt of lightning. He threw a fist at Chu Kuangren’s head.
“You got ahead of yourself! This will be death!”
A hint of cold killing intent appeared in Chu Kuangren’s eyes.
He, too, threw a punch. Rampant raw physical strength that surpa.s.sed his previous punch erupted and hit Yun Qianliu.
Bang!
The body burst into a cloud of b.l.o.o.d.y mist.
Yun Qianliu, an Immortal Progeny, was killed before he knew it.
The crowd gasped in fear.
Chu Kuangren had not used his full strength until now.
“A peak-stage Supreme Immortal Progeny!”
“I didn’t expect this at all.”
The crowd was left in awe and astonishment.
Hong Xue lost the mood to continue the confrontation. He inhaled deeply before saying, “Sorry for offending you. Please excuse me.”
“Did I give you permission to leave?” Chu Kuangren’s icy cold voice sounded.
He looked at the few of them and said, “You started this first, and you people want to leave when you realize the difference in our strengths? Who do you think I am?”
“What do you want?” Hong Xue took a deep breath and asked.
“What do I want? You should at least look the part if you want to apologize. Leave your Yin and Yang Ring, every one of you,” Chu Kuangren said.
“Impossible!”
“Dream on!”
The other Immortal Progenies behind Hong Xue got agitated.
Their Yin and Yang Rings contained the wealth and life-saving items given to them by their respective orthodoxies and civilizations for this trip to the Fragmented Immortal World.
They were not things that they could simply give away.
“Sure. If that’s the case, leave me your life,” Chu Kuangren said.
The energy on him started to surge, and his great poise shook everyone.
“Daoist Brother, live and let live. There’s no reason for you to burn all the bridges here. Why the extreme methods?” Hong Xue said with a deep breath.
“Ring, or life. Hurry up and choose.”
“You…” Hong Xue was deeply agitated, but he knew he was no match for Chu Kuangren. As such, he took the ring off and tossed it over.
The other Immortal Progenies saw it and did the same.
No matter how valuable their possession was, they had to be alive to make use of it.
After leaving the Yin and Yang Ring, a few of them left in a hurry. They went into Ascending Immortal Dao and wanted to enter the Fragmented Immortal World.
Deep down, each of them swore to find an opportunity in the Fragmented Immortal World and surpa.s.s Chu Kuangren so that they could take revenge on him in the future.
The moment Hong Xue entered the Immortal Ascension Path, the four white pillars started to react. The dragon and phoenix carvings on the pillars came alive in the form of apparations and started to swirl above him.
It was an auspicious phenomenon of the blessing of dragon and phoenix. It was also a sign stating Hong Xue’s strong talents.
The crowd was in awe.
Hong Xue found consolation in the phenomenon. “Losing a battle doesn’t mean the end. Chu Kuangren, just you wait.. I will surpa.s.s you one day!”
