Mortals: Take Mo Juren at the start

Chapter 1125 Human-Demon Trade

"Thirty million and five hundred thousand..."

"Thirty-one million..."

"Thirty-one million and five hundred thousand..."

"Forty million..."

"..."

The sudden voice suddenly rang out, instantly making the entire venue silent.

Originally, due to competition, the price of the Red Swan Armor had already increased to a relatively high level, so when it reached the 30 million level, there were not many people left bidding.

But I never thought that such a person would suddenly appear!

Could it be that the organizer arranged a "shill"? But that shouldn't be the case. If it was a "shill", he wouldn't have bid the price like that. He just bid the price to the limit.

At this moment, the few people who were originally participating in the competition also calmed down instantly.

This Red Swan Armor is indeed a rare protective armor that can save your life at a critical moment. Its value is unquestionable. If it is around 30 million, although it is already very high, it is still worth considering.

But now it has suddenly increased to 40 million, which is a bit too outrageous. It would not be worth it to buy it reluctantly.

On the auction table in the center, the woman surnamed Feng naturally understood what was going on. Her bright eyes flickered slightly, and without the slightest hesitation, she immediately said loudly:

"Forty million, is there a higher amount?"

"Forty million at a time, any more?"

"Forty million twice..."

"Forty million three times, deal. Congratulations, fellow Taoist. The Scarlet Swan Armor now belongs to you!"

As soon as the voice fell, a maid took the armor to room number 13 for delivery. At this time, almost all the monks present showed strange expressions.

Everyone couldn't help but speculate that the woman surnamed Feng seemed a little hasty this time. Could it be that she felt that the man's offer was too high, so she was afraid that if she was a little slow, the other party would go back on his word?

Everyone had their own thoughts, but no one was thinking about anything else, and they immediately began to pay attention to the next item.

……

In VIP Room No. 13, the maid had obviously been instructed in advance, so after coming in, she just bowed respectfully, put her things down, and turned to leave.

In contrast, Xue Rou was looking at the armor on the table with complicated eyes.

I thought that if I had prepared 10 million spirit stones, even if it was not enough, the difference would not be too big. But unexpectedly, the final price actually quadrupled.

Forty million spirit stones! Although this price was deliberately raised by the captain in order to win it in one fell swoop, more than thirty million is a real amount.

But she had only paid 8 million before, and there was a gap of more than 20 million between 30 million and 30 million! How could she accept this with peace of mind?

"Captain, I..." Xue Rou was about to say something, but was interrupted by Mo Juren.

"Put the things away and don't think about the rest."

"No!" This time, Xue Rou was particularly determined and shook her head immediately.

"If the difference is only a few hundred thousand, or one or two million, I can accept it, but a difference of more than 20 million is something I cannot afford no matter what.

I did lend you some spirit stones before, but it can’t be considered a favor at all. On the contrary, if it weren’t for you, we wouldn’t have received such a generous reward for our last mission, and you even saved my life.

I owe you the favor of saving my life, and I have not yet repaid you. So what right do I have to take advantage of you now?"

"More than 20 million spirit stones, don't you regret it?" Mo Juren laughed. She knew how to be grateful and knew when to advance and retreat. Such qualities were extremely rare, and it made him admire this woman even more.

"What is there to regret? If you don't agree, I will never accept this armor!" Xue Rou remained firm.

"Well, let's compromise and calculate it based on the price of 20 million. After all, the price of the same level of inner armor on the market is about this amount. I have already given you 8 million before, how about the remaining 12 million be deducted from the previous loan?" Mo Juren no longer objected and gave his suggestion directly.

"Twenty million! I agree, but even so, I'm still taking advantage of you." Xue Rou smiled helplessly, but did not continue to refuse.

After agreeing on this matter, Xue Rou no longer hesitated. He immediately picked up the inner armor on the table and began to examine it carefully.

This is a treasure worth 20 million spirit stones! Moreover, it is a fine ancient treasure from ancient times, which is truly priceless in today's era.

This is one of the reasons why she felt that she still took advantage of the other party. Besides, let alone the market price, if it weren't for her, the other party could really sell it for more than 30 million.

This is still a big bargain!

In fact, she had only prepared 10 million yuan, thinking that she could try her luck at an auction, or go to some large stores and buy something similar.

But now that he had bought this Red Swan Armor at such a favorable price, he was naturally ecstatic.

Just as she thought, after studying it for a while, she felt that this armor was extraordinary and definitely worth the money.

Seeing this scene, Mo Juren couldn't help but laugh, but it was understandable. After all, this armor was not only of good quality, but also of a female style. It was no surprise that the other party liked it so much.

The auction is still going on, of course, mainly for the last few treasures. The good thing is that these treasures are not all from him, and two of the precious treasures are provided by Jiuxiao Pavilion.

I won’t talk about those that came from him. The key point is that the last two treasures from Jiuxiao Pavilion are extremely rare and hard to come by for others, but they have no appeal to him, which is indeed a pity.

The auction ended completely until the last treasure was bought by someone at a very high price.

Mo Juren did not leave immediately, but continued to wait patiently in the room until about a quarter of an hour later, the door slowly opened and the woman named Feng walked in with a smile on her face.

Sensing Xue Rou's presence, a strange look flashed across his eyes, which disappeared in an instant. Then he smiled softly and said:

"I'm sorry to have kept you waiting, Brother Mo. It's my fault."

As she spoke, she took out a bulging storage bag and handed it to the front, saying jokingly,

"The things are all inside, please count them, Brother Mo. Otherwise, once you leave Jiuxiao Pavilion, if you find that the number is wrong, I will not recognize it."

"I still believe in Miss Feng's character, so there's no need to take inventory." Mo Juren tied the storage bag around his waist without hesitation, and stood up and said.

"It's getting late, and I have some personal matters to attend to, so I'll take my leave now."

"It's a pity that both meetings were rather rushed. Brother Mo, if you have time in the future, you can come over at any time. But if you have any needs, Jiuxiao Pavilion will do its best to meet them."

"I've made note of this. See you later!"

"See you later!" ...

"Captain, what are your plans next?" Xue Rou suddenly asked at the entrance of Jiuxiao Pavilion, looking at the crowd coming and going, whose numbers remained unchanged.

As for the scene he had just seen in the VIP room, although he was extremely curious, he was tactful enough not to mention it.

"I plan to go shopping at Taixuan Palace, how about you?" The entire market is open almost all day, not to mention it is during the big auction, so Mo Juren is naturally in no hurry to go back.

"Captain, do you want to trade with the demon tribe?" Xue Rou immediately guessed the other party's purpose.

"I guess so. After all, the demon race has many special resources that the human race doesn't have. If you go and have a look, you might get some unexpected rewards.

"Unfortunately, I am already short of money, and I suddenly remembered a personal matter that needs to be dealt with. Otherwise, I could go with the captain."

"It's okay, there will be plenty of opportunities in the future." Mo Juren waved his hand indifferently, then turned and left, disappearing in the crowded crowd in a blink of an eye.

Xue Rou also did not stay for long. He took off into the air and flew out of the market at a high speed.

……

Not long after, Mo Juren arrived in front of Taixuan Palace again.

Compared to yesterday's grand auction, when only cultivators above the Spirit Transformation Stage were allowed to enter, today is completely different, with no restrictions at all.

In principle, anyone, whether a cultivator or even some high-level body cultivators, can enter the temple and conduct transactions at will.

Of course, there is no limit in theory, but there is still a threshold in reality. All human cultivators or body cultivators who want to enter must pay a considerable amount of spirit stones.

This directly stops too many people. At least, if they don’t have enough wealth, they will definitely not choose to come here to trade.

The Taixuan Palace was built right in the center of the market town, with half of it in the human area and the other half in the demon area. Its purpose was essentially to facilitate trade between the two races.

Therefore, except for the big auction yesterday, all other times are open normally.

When humans and demons trade in a fixed hall, conflicts are inevitable, so they have made every possible preparation, that is, every entrant must carry a special jade pendant.

As long as you wear it, a ball of white mist will immediately form to cover your body. It can also limit the cultivation level of the person wearing it, plus the restriction formation arranged in the Taixuan Palace.

Once an ordinary cultivator enters it, if he uses his magic power in the slightest, not only will he be unable to display any magical powers, he will also be instantly teleported away and will not be able to enter again for a short time.

The demon tribe on the other side is in a similar situation, except that they need to receive a black banner and transform into a demon cloud to conceal their appearance.

In addition, the hall is also equipped with four golden guards in the Void Refinement Stage and ten Qingming guards to maintain order, with half of them being humans and half being demons.

Such careful and cautious arrangements show how much importance the higher-ups attach to this!

When Mo Juren walked to the front door of the palace, he directly paid a sum of spirit stones and received the corresponding jade pendant from the guard, which was quite different from the light-blocking pendant he got yesterday.

After wearing it, the whole body was instantly wrapped in white mist, and then walked towards the door.

Through a long corridor, you can directly enter a hall that is hundreds of feet wide. At the other end of the hall, you can clearly see another palace door.

If my guess is correct, then behind the palace door should be the passage leading to the demon clan.

There were quite a few people in the hall at this time, half of them were covered in white mist, and the other half were shrouded in black air, all of them were communicating with each other in front of the temporary stalls.

Seeing this scene, Mo Juren couldn't help but sigh that this model was really simple.

He didn't pay much attention to it and started walking around the hall.

It has to be said that there are quite a lot of messy things here, many of which he doesn't recognize, especially the stalls of the monster tribe, where the items displayed are very strange.

Almost every time he came to a stall, he would stop for a long time or have a detailed conversation with the stall owner. Once he found something that interested him, of course mainly the materials, he would buy it decisively regardless of whether it was useful or not.

His path of cultivation is special, and the resources he will need in the future will not only be large in quantity, but also of a wide variety. Naturally, he needs to make some reserves in advance. If he really doesn't need them, he can sell them in the store later without losing money.

What is particularly important is that the prices of many of the resources sold here are not expensive. In this case, there is no need to hesitate. Naturally, the more the better.

With the intention of "purchasing goods", he made frequent moves in the following period and purchased large quantities of resources continuously.

Naturally, such an action could not be hidden from the surrounding monks, and they all cast curious glances at him.

Mo Juren didn't bother to care about this. Not only did he use the five-colored mask to change his body and appearance, but now he was also covered by a white halo. No one could see his true appearance clearly.

Just as he thought, the surrounding cultivators of both the human and demon races were extremely curious, but after taking a look, they withdrew their gazes and no longer paid attention.

"Hey, this is..." Unknowingly, Mo Juren came to a new stall. The stall owner was shrouded in black air and was obviously a demon.

He didn't care about these things, but focused all his attention on the stall.

"Thank you for your courtesy, fellow Taoist. But what do you like?" At this moment, the stall owner spoke first. What surprised Mo Juren was that the other party was actually a woman. Her voice was clear and pleasant, which made people unforgettable.

"What's in this bottle?" Mo Juren didn't beat around the bush, but pointed directly to a sky blue jade bottle about three inches high on the stall, with traces of electric light wrapped around its surface.

"A great demon in the late stage of Spiritual Transformation swallowed the blood of the Sky Thunder Python!" The woman nodded and replied directly.

"Sky-Swallowing Thunder Python?" Mo Juren's mind moved, and he immediately thought of the information of this demon python.

This is also a demon clan with a great reputation. Although it cannot be compared with Zi Dian, who possesses the blood of a true spirit, it is equally good, especially in terms of strength. It is definitely one of the top demon clans of the same level.

Zi Dian's bloodline level is too high, and the resources needed to refine it are too precious. On the one hand, the demon soul at the middle stage of the Refining Void level is the most difficult.

At least with his current strength, it is almost a fantasy to get it.

Therefore, it is best to settle for the second best for now, and first choose a thunder-attributed monster at the level of the God Transformation as a transition. It will not be too late to consider Zi Dian after your cultivation level has improved in the future.

In this way, the demon blood in front of him can be completely considered, especially since his realm happens to be in the late stage of transformation, it is perfect.

"The stuff is really good, but the quantity seems a little small?" Looking at the blue jade bottle that was only three inches high, Mo Juren couldn't help but say with regret.

"Fellow Daoist, you have misunderstood. This jade bottle is a space magic tool similar to a storage bracelet. It is specially used to hold liquids. Although the space it holds is not large, it can store a lot." The woman explained quickly.

"Space magic weapon, so that's what it is!" Mo Juren suddenly realized.

"Can you take out a drop so I can examine it?"

"Of course no problem." The woman nodded, picked up the jade bottle directly, then opened the stopper and shook it slightly. Suddenly, a drop of blue blood flashing with faint electric light floated out.
