Chapter 405: Collusion
The annual auction of Qingmufang City is about to begin again, and this time there are a lot of gods coming to participate in the auction.
The news of the impending war in the God Realm has spread. Those True Lords and even Heavenly Lords who have been practicing in seclusion can no longer sit still. All forces are also trying their best to increase their strength. Naturally, the largest auction in the God Realm will attract many gods.
This time, Chen Jiu was just there to help raise the price, so he was not in a hurry. It was not until the day of the auction that he sat in Jin Ling Tianzun's Eight Treasures Scented Car and rushed to the auction venue with Fairy Furong, Yuyi Tianzun and Yunxiao Tianzun.
This time, Xian Tianzun was too lazy to come. He felt that coming was a waste of time. It would be better to train those demon kings and demon fairies in the Demon God City.
When they arrived at the auction house, the entrance was already crowded with people, and there was no telling how many gods were pouring in.
When the Tiger Power Heavenly Venerable who was guarding the entrance saw them coming, he couldn't help but send a telepathic message: "Master Jiu, you are finally here, please go in quickly. If we hadn't said that the two compartments on the top floor were reserved, you would have no place to sit."
Uh, are there so many people this time?
Upon hearing this, Chen Jiu quickly waved his hand and said, "Big Sister, let's go in quickly."
At this time, only one of the nine compartments on the top floor was empty, and the other compartment that Huli Tianzun had "reserved" for them was occupied by the newly emerged Tianjun Sect.
Tian Jue Zhenjun and his men were actually here to cooperate with them, so the two sides naturally had to pretend not to know each other and could not come together.
As soon as Chen Jiu and his group entered the compartment, twelve Rabbit Immortals came to greet them happily. They were the twelve people that Chen Jiu had rewarded with elixirs last time, so they could be considered old acquaintances.
There were many old friends who came to the auction this time, for example, Xuandu Tianzun, Chilian Tianzun, Fude Tianzun, Yuding Tianzun and Daoxing Tianzun. These guys were actually surrounding a foreign Tianzun with a high nose and big eyes and showing their courtesy to him.
That guy was very grand, with more than a dozen pretty female Jurchens surrounding him. They served him tea and water, and rubbed his shoulders and back. If you couldn't tell his cultivation level, you would think he was an ancestor-level being.
Chen Jiu scanned with his consciousness and couldn't help but ask curiously: "Who is that guy?"
Yuyi Tianzun said without hesitation: "The eldest disciple of the Western Sect's Brahma Patriarch, Tarot Tianzun, is rumored to have a unique skill of a box of cards."
At first, Chen Jiu didn't know what this guy was holding in his hand, but now he understood that this guy was holding a card. Of course, it was definitely not an ordinary card. Since that guy was the eldest disciple of the Western Religion's Brahma Patriarch, the cards in his hand were at least at the magic weapon level.
These two gangs are actually blatantly working together!
Chen Jiu thought about it, and simply sent a telepathic message: "How dare you guys run out and run around everywhere? Are you in a hurry to reincarnate? You got away quickly last time, but don't even think about running away next time!"
Hearing this, Xuandu Tianzun gnashed his teeth and said angrily: "Boy, you dare to be so arrogant in the God Realm, you want to die, right?"
Upon hearing this, Chen Jiu said disdainfully: "Why, you turned into a mad dog after arriving in the God Realm? You want to bite me, right?"
Xuandu Tianzun snorted coldly and said to Tarot Tianzun, "We are talking about that kid."
Upon hearing this, Tarot Tianzun scanned with his spiritual sense, and his originally arrogant face suddenly changed. He actually said with greed on his face: "Boy, there are some good little Tianzuns next to you. Give them to me, and I may spare your life."
You are looking for death!
Chen Jiu said coldly: "Who are you? Why are you trying to spare my life? Don't fall into my hands. If you fall into my hands, I'll see how you beg for mercy."
Tarot Tianzun's expression suddenly changed back to normal. He said with pride, "Boy, I heard that you have some magic pills. Let me tell you, you won't be able to win anything at this auction."
Oh, you’re going to throw the elixir at me?
That’s perfect. I’ll let you bleed a little!
Come on, hit me.
Chen Jiu pretended to be disdainful and said, "You didn't learn anything else from Chi Lian and Xuan Du, but you learned to brag, right? You can't take pictures of anything, don't let me take pictures of anything, and then you can't compete with me for elixirs. You are not qualified!"
Upon hearing this, Chi Lian Tian Zun actually approached and said coquettishly: "Tarot, he was the one who bullied me last time, you must help me get revenge!"
vomit!
Chen Jiu almost vomited. This old witch was too disgusting. No wonder she didn't bring the Crown Prince Zhu Yijun this time. It turned out that she wanted to play this disgusting trick.
It was unknown whether Tarot Tianzun was not particular about meat or vegetables, or whether he was so hungry that he could not choose his food, but he actually raised his hands to hug the old witch, and said smugly, "Okay, I'll help you teach him a lesson this time."
Chen Jiu couldn't help but said with contempt: "Idiot."
Tarot Lord could not help but snorted coldly: "You are such a fool, you only know how to bite randomly, right?"
Chen Jiu immediately retorted, "You are blind. Don't you know that there are a few mad dogs sitting next to you? If you sit with them, you will become a mad dog too, right?"
When Chi Lian Tianzun heard this, he became furious. If she didn't have to pretend to be a lady in front of others, she would have jumped up and cursed.
Chen Jiu was deliberately trying to piss these guys off. After being pissed off by him like this, these guys would definitely argue with him later. This was his purpose.
These guys didn't know it was a trick, and they were so pissed off by him that they were almost fuming.
When the tension between the two sides was at its peak, there was finally movement on the auction table below. Fox Power Tianzun had already come on stage with a large number of True Lords and True Immortals.
Tarot Tianzun, Xuandu Tianzun, and Chilian Tianzun immediately stared at him and sneered, as if they had him in their grasp.
Let these idiots be proud of themselves.
Chen Jiu snorted coldly, his consciousness seemed to be staring at the auction table, and he ignored them.
Soon, Fox Power Tianzun waved his hand and took out more than ten rare treasures.
He said seriously, "This is the first round of auctions for genius treasures today. Because everything has gone up in price recently, the genius treasures that the employers are consigning have also gone up in price. We can't follow the old rules. The first round's reserve price is fifty bottles of elixirs, and each bid must not be less than five bottles."
Wow, the price has increased fivefold!
Who would spend dozens of bottles of elixir to buy this first round of rare treasures that are completely useless?
Chen Jiu secretly sent a telepathic message: "Old Ding, just tell me if it's a natural treasure with fire attribute."
These gods who were consigning the rare treasures were also a little annoyed. They insisted on raising the price according to the current market price. Moreover, it was not enough to offer five times the price to buy the auction items they were consigning privately. They still insisted on auctioning them, and Qingmufang City had no choice.
He actually just wanted to get materials with ignition properties to refine a magic alchemy furnace. Otherwise, he would have to waste a precious phoenix blood stone to refine the magic alchemy furnace.
Soon, the auction of the first rare treasure began. It seemed that no one was willing to bid for the starting price of fifty bottles of elixirs. No one wanted to be a sucker and spend fifty bottles of elixirs to buy a useless treasure.
Seeing this, Chen Jiu raised his hand and said, "I'll give you fifty... a plate of fruit, please have some."
In a flash, fifty plates of fresh fruits appeared on the huge table, with several plates placed in front of each person, and no two plates were the same.
He paused deliberately, and Tarot Tianzun thought he had made an offer, so he immediately raised his hand and said loudly without hesitation: "I'll offer fifty-five bottles of elixirs."
Even Fox Power Tianzun couldn't help but be stunned, because Chen Jiugang was just talking to himself there, and didn't use his spiritual consciousness to transmit a price to him.
This guy actually opened his mouth and asked for fifty-five bottles of elixirs!
Okay, let’s call it a good start.
Fox Power Heavenly Venerable immediately said in a loud voice: "Someone is offering fifty-five bottles of elixirs. Is there anyone else who wants to make an offer?"
This one was naturally not available, and the other gods who came to participate in the auction were stunned.
Who is this idiot who actually offered fifty-five bottles of elixir to buy this useless thing!
Chen Jiu picked up a fruit and took a delicious bite, with a deliberately sarcastic smile on his face.
Obviously, he was fooled.
Tarot Tianzun could not help but snorted coldly: "You are a mortal dog who has never seen the world. It's just fifty-five bottles of elixirs . I have plenty of elixirs."
Chen Jiu even deliberately said in anger: "You spendthrift, what's the use of having elixirs but no brains? You are useless!"
This really made Tarot Lord so angry that he was about to smoke.
No one made an offer for the rare treasures in the next first round of auction. No one wanted to be taken advantage of, and Qingmu Market also wanted to teach a lesson to the gods who consigned the rare treasures. So if the items failed to sell, they failed to sell, and Fox Power Tianzun didn't say a word.
Immediately afterwards, the second round of auction of rare treasures began. The rare treasures in this round were still somewhat useful, but the reserve price was raised to one hundred bottles of elixirs. Even if they were refined into magic weapons, few people would want them, and you would lose so much that you would have nothing to wear.
No one wanted to be taken advantage of, so when Fox Power Tianzun announced the bidding for the first rare treasure of the second round, no one said a word for a long time.
Seeing this, Chen Jiu simply raised his hand and said, "I'll give you a hundred bottles of elixirs."
Tarot Lord raised his hand without hesitation and said, "I'll offer one hundred and ten bottles of elixirs."
Okay, that's fine.
Actually, Chen Jiu saw that there were too many rare treasures that failed to be sold, and the atmosphere had been dull for too long. Fox Power Tianzun was a little embarrassed, so he spoke up to help others ease the embarrassment.
I didn't expect that this idiot Tarot Tianzun really didn't care whether the thing was useful or worth the price, he just wanted to snatch it from him.
He could only deliberately put on a sarcastic smile again.
Although Tarot Tianzun knew that he was being fooled again, he still said stubbornly: "You mortal dog, if you don't have the elixir, then go back to the mortal world. Today, I will make sure that you can't take a single picture."
Really?
Chen Jiu didn't say anything after that. The rare treasures kept failing to be sold one after another, and no one made any bids.
Unexpectedly, the last item in the second round is a rare treasure with fire attribute. There is no need for Honghuang Shending to remind you of this, because Fox Power Tianzun said it when he introduced it.
Chen Jiu asked straightforwardly: "Old Ding, how many magic alchemy furnaces can you make by smelting this thing?"
Honghuang Shending said without hesitation: "A hundred or so should be no problem."
A hundred or so would be pretty good. After all, the magic alchemy furnace was like a machine for making elixirs after it was refined. He didn't know how many elixirs he could earn from a magic alchemy furnace in a month.
It seems that no one has the ability to smelt the Honghuang Divine Cauldron, a rare treasure with fire attribute, into materials for refining magic weapons and alchemy furnaces, and no one has made an offer for this thing.
Chen Jiu said in a straightforward voice transmission: "Brother Tianjue, help me get this."
The Great Lord of the Heavenly Lord Sect immediately raised his hand without hesitation and said, "I will offer one hundred bottles of elixirs."
Sure enough, Tarot Tianzun ignored the other person at all. He just stared at Chen Jiu and would not say a word unless Chen Jiu made a bid.
This is why Chen Jiu asked Tianjue Zhenjun and others to cooperate with him.
If he wants to provoke the forces of the Hongmeng Sect to confront him, then they will just do as they are doing now, targeting him to raise the price and never let him go.
In this way, his purpose of raising the price was achieved, but the things he wanted to shoot would definitely cost a lot of money, and people would definitely not let him get them easily.
But it is different when there are fake Heavenly Lords from the Heavenly Lord Sect and other people like Tian Jue Zhenjun cooperating with them. No one in the God Realm knows them at all, and when they bid for something, no one will argue with them for no reason.
In this way, he only needs to ask Tianjue Zhenjun and others to buy the things he likes, and he will never waste any money.
Master Tarot really thought that he could use the elixir to make Chen Jiu unable to buy anything he wanted. Little did he know that Chen Jiu had already prepared a backup plan. His elixir could not hit Chen Jiu at all and could only hit him in the water!
Immediately afterwards, the third round of auction of rare treasures began.
The rare treasures in this round of auction can already be used to refine pretty good magic weapons . Even if the reserve price is raised to two hundred bottles of elixirs, it would not be a loss if you can buy them back and refine them into magic weapons. After all, the prices of magic weapons have risen to an alarming level now, and any ordinary magic weapon would cost thousands of bottles of elixirs.
Although Qingmufang City no longer purchases magic weapons and treasures made by individual refiners in order to prevent the release of immortal pills, those individual refiners can still find sellers to sell them themselves. Therefore, truly useful natural treasures are still quite popular, and people started bidding as soon as the third round started.
Seeing this, Chen Jiu couldn't help but narrow his eyes.
Patriarch Qingmu asked him to raise the price, and it is time for him to take action.
Western religion is going to collude with Hongmeng religion, right?
Then teach them a lesson!
