Shrouding the Heavens: Starting by joining the Holy Land of Yao Guang

Chapter 39: Request to Buy, Refusal

"Young friend, would you like to sell this piece of divine purple gold? I'm willing to offer 300,000 jin of source material." At this moment, a powerful figure came out from the courtyard and made a bid.

This is the Supreme Elder of the Five Elements Palace, who came from the inner courtyard. Upon seeing the Divine Mark Purple Gold, he couldn't help but call out a price.

Just as he opened his mouth, another person stepped forward—the Supreme Elder of the Purple Mansion Holy Land.

"Are you kidding me? You only offer 300,000 jin of the Divine Mark Purple Gold, which is the size of a fingertip. Are you trying to fob me off like a beggar?"

“Young brother, ignore him. He has no sincerity, but I do. My Purple Mansion Holy Land is willing to offer 400,000 catties of source to purchase the Divine Mark Purple Gold that you have obtained.”

"I have 500,000 jin." At this moment, even the Supreme Elder of the Ji family couldn't help but call out a price.

"Six hundred thousand catties..."

……

These people could easily command hundreds of thousands of kilograms of Origin, which aroused envy and jealousy among the onlookers. Many of them had green eyes and looked over like wolves.

"Alright, everyone, you've all lost your minds. Have you ever seen anyone selling immortal gold?" At this moment, Yun Shang spoke up, directly silencing everyone.

Even if an ordinary person refused, they wouldn't be so forceful, for fear of offending these forces, but Yunshang doesn't care about them.

In the Eastern Wilderness, he, from the Yao Guang Holy Land, was never afraid of anyone, directly and forcefully rejecting everyone without leaving any room for negotiation.

Li Yao felt very safe at this moment. With Yun Shang backing him up, he immediately felt the benefits of having a powerful backer. Even if he obtained something good, he was not afraid of others coveting it.

At this moment, Li Yao looked at the divine source floating in the air, as dazzling as the sun. The murderous intent that had given him the creeps was gone, but it hadn't disappeared; it had simply subsided.

If anyone dares to touch the divine source at this moment, an unparalleled killing intent will erupt, and the person who touches it will inevitably turn into a blood mist.

"The Divine Source not only protects the divine essence of the Immortal Gold from dissipation, but also inscribes a killing array within it." Yun Shang concluded after observing for a while.

“This should be a celestial metal sealed by a powerful figure from ancient times,” said the Supreme Elder of the Ji family.

Divine Mark Purple Gold is very precious, but it also has a fatal flaw: it is too small. The powerful beings who obtained the immortal gold did not use it, but sealed it away, planning to take it out and use it to forge weapons when they found enough immortal gold.

Or perhaps this piece of celestial gold was prepared for someone close to her, but for some unknown reason, it was never used and has been preserved to this day.

Of course, the first possibility is more likely. Everyone needs enough of this kind of material, Immortal Gold, let alone save some for those close to them.

"First, seal off this space, and then trigger the killing array's power." Just then, Li Yao heard a familiar voice. He turned around and found that it was Zhang Chong.

"Master Zhang." Li Yao was pleasantly surprised.

Zhang Chong looked at Li Yao with amazement; this young man was truly constantly redefining his understanding of him.

He still doesn't know just how extraordinary Li Yao's comprehension is, to have reached this level in just six months.

"Let's attack together." At this moment, Yun Shang looked at Zhang Chong and said, then unleashed his divine power. A blinding holy light flew out from between his fingers, instantly sealing off this space. All around was silent, and a divine might of the Great Dao surged down, pressing down in an instant.

Zhang Chong also joined the attack, his blazing divine light flashing, his Dao patterns densely covering the void like iron chains, completely sealing off the entire void.

Moreover, a defensive array was erected in the fourth courtyard of the gambling stone workshop, enveloping the source stone area.

The defenses were layered and completely impenetrable. The onlookers were astonished; with the two Supreme Elders and the gambling stone market's grand formation, even a powerful figure like himself would probably be unable to break through in a short time.

After ensuring everything was perfect, Zhang Chong flicked his finger, and a divine ray of light flew out from his fingertip, like a divine dragon, shooting towards the divine source and striking it.

"Hey!"

The divine source trembled, the light was dazzling, the killing intent was overwhelming, and the killing power was like a bolt of lightning, weaving together terrifying sword light, dense and numerous, with the potential to destroy heaven and earth.

Liu Shi was shocked and said, "It's so terrifying. Even cutting stone is dangerous. If you are not careful and it pierces through you, all the rare treasures will become nothing but illusions."

"boom!"

The stone garden trembled as the overwhelming killing intent crashed into the light barrier jointly set up by Yun Shang and Zhang Chong. After a brief stalemate, it tore the light barrier apart and then collided with the stone garden's grand formation.

"What?! It actually pierced through the combined attack of two half-step Great Powers! Its killing power is terrifying!"

"Not only that, countless years have passed. Even though it was sealed with Originium, the power of killing has been worn down by time and is no longer at its peak. But even so, it still has such great power. It's unimaginable how terrifying it would be if it were at its peak!"

The elders of the Ji family, the Five Elements Palace, and the Purple Mansion Holy Land, with their sharp eyes, saw the terrifying power of this killing force and couldn't help but exclaim in surprise.

"Boom!", "Boom!"

Yun Shang and Zhang Chong continued their attack, unleashing their renowned Holy Light Technique, which enveloped the divine source within, to contend with that overwhelming killing power.

The stone garden trembled incessantly as powerful forces collided, tearing the void apart. An unimaginable sense of oppression enveloped everyone's hearts, making them feel breathless.

After a moment, the killing power disappeared. That power was very strong, but it was ultimately like a rootless duckweed, unable to last.

The divine light dimmed and fell to the ground, its essence being mostly drained, and its killing power also disappeared.

Li Yao felt a pang of regret. If such a powerful killing force could be preserved and unleashed at a crucial moment, it could definitely kill a half-step great power.

Unfortunately, he didn't have the Myriad Things Mother Qi Cauldron to protect him, so he dared not carry such a dangerous thing with him. If he were to put it into the Sea of ​​Bitterness, it would be fine if it didn't erupt, but once it did, his fate would be to explode into a cloud of blood mist, leaving not even a corpse behind.

Zhang Chong and Yun Shang withdrew their divine power, and the great formation in the stone garden dissipated. Li Yao quickly stepped forward, flicked his right hand, and put away the dim divine source.

The divine source was only the size of an egg, and its light was dim at this moment. The essence contained within it was almost dried up, and it was not much better than the pure source.

Li Yao felt a pang of heartache; such a large piece of divine source was ruined just like that, which was equivalent to losing tens of thousands of kilograms of pure source.

However, when he saw the crystal-clear, purple-glowing immortal gold inside the divine source, his heartache vanished instantly.

People gathered around, wanting to get a closer look at this legendary sacred relic belonging to the Great Emperor.

Li Yao instantly became alert, storing his divine source into the Sea of ​​Bitterness, and then warily eyeing the crowd that was surrounding him.

"Everyone, this is not for sale." With that, Li Yao moved his feet and stopped next to Zhang Chong.

Although he knew these people were unlikely to make a move, the hungry look in their eyes, like those of ravenous wolves, still made Li Yao feel very unsafe.
