Qin Chen thought for a while and said that he did not ask for too much, because the mid-level monarch-grade soul essence, or dragon soul essence, was a mid-level heavenly resource, and the best among the mid-level heavenly resources.

The kind of magic tool Qin Chen proposed can be done by low-level heavenly-grade magic tools. Considering its production and reusability, this kind of magic tool is comparable to medium-level heavenly-grade magic tools. In fact, the value of medium-level monarch-level spirit essence is higher.

Because in order to hunt down a mid-level monarch-level demon, even a great monarch-level demon cannot do it. It requires a supreme monarch-level demon to do it. If converted into mages, at least a team of ordinary super-level three mages is needed to ensure the successful hunting of a mid-level monarch-level demon.

"It seems that you still understand the market situation."

Asharuya's eyes lit up. She had originally thought that Qin Chen would ask for a high price, but she didn't expect it to be like this. Indeed, the value of the magic tool Asharuya gave for the first time was far from enough. She just wanted to test Qin Chen because Qin Chen looked too young. Youth means lack of experience. If Qin Chen could agree to it at the beginning, Asharuya would naturally make a profit.

It now seems that the other party is not only experienced, but also understands the market situation.

"Then do you want a higher level magic tool for restoring magic power? For example, a magic tool that can restore all the magic power of a super-class second-level wizard?"

Asharuya pursed her red lips and spoke. Even though there was a table between them, Qin Chen could smell the fragrance on Asharuya's body.

"What do I have to give?"

Qin Chen said calmly. Although he was very tempted, he did not agree immediately. There is no free lunch in the world. Moreover, the person in front of him was Asharuya. From the magic tool she took out at the beginning, he knew that she was not a simple girl.

"I need a favor from you. When I want to help me with something, you can't refuse. Of course, it won't be something life-threatening, but it will be within your ability. How about that?"

Asharuya said that she had a magic sensing device, and through her perception, she knew that Qin Chen was a high-level wizard with a strong mental power. In addition, he was young and had a background that allowed him to obtain a mid-level monarch-level spirit essence. Asharuya was very sure that this person was not simple, so she was interested in asking this question.

This kind of recovery magic tool is very precious to other people, but it is not precious to her as the Saint of the Parthenon, because there are many such magic tools in the Parthenon, and on her birthday, many people in the Parthenon gave her magic tools as gifts.

"Okay, but there is one condition. What you want me to do must be done before this World Academy Competition and it must not affect my participation in the World Academy Competition. How do you think?"

Qin Chen thought for a while and said that of course, the sooner the better for such favors, because he believed that after his true talent was revealed, Asharuya would know how valuable this favor was.

That's why he would limit the time for this favor. In the future, his achievements will not only be a super-class magician. Using such a small benefit to exchange for a favor in the future? Qin Chen is not so stupid.

If he hadn't felt that low-grade heavenly-level magic power was still too useless for his super-level, he wouldn't have agreed to such a thing, and now he could get a medium-grade heavenly-level magic tool that could restore all the magic power of a super-level second-level wizard, and he could use it when he was at the first and second levels of the super-level, and even at a high level.

This time it was Asharuya's turn to start thinking, because Asharuya was optimistic about Qin Chen's long-term future, not such a short future. Before the World Academy Competition, he was at best a high-level third-level mage. As the saint of the Parthenon, what did she need a high-level third-level mage for?

Looking at Qin Chen's confident expression, Asharuya didn't know where his confidence came from, but just because of this damn curiosity, Asharuya wanted to agree to Qin Chen's conditions.

"Okay, but we have to sign a dark contract. Otherwise, I'm afraid you'll regret it."

Asharuya finally made up her mind and agreed to the other party, because even if this favor was wasted, for Asharuya, it was just a failed investment, and the loss of failure was not high.

Chapter 162 Dark Contract

Intermediate monarch-level essences are equivalent to mid-level heaven-level resources, and the value of the intermediate heaven-level magic tools given by Astraea is only slightly higher than that of intermediate monarch-level essences, but not much higher. This loss, Ah Sharuya can still afford the loss.

But if this favor is used in the future, you will make a lot of money. This is like using a small amount to make a big gain. If you lose, you will only lose a little, but if you win, you will make a lot of money.

"make a deal!"

Qin Chen looked at the dark contract handed over by Astraea. This kind of contract is not high-level, it is just soul-level. But for high-level mage, the soul-level contract cannot be broken away and cannot be violated.

Many times, people like to use contracts to bind each other. The most famous contracts are the contracts in the three planes of darkness, light, and summoning.

Of course, there are other contracts, such as the oath tree spiritual contract of the Dragon Kingdom Tribunal, the totem contract exclusive to totem beasts, the curse contract between cursed creatures or cursed substances and other creatures, etc.

Qin Chen carefully read the contract conditions above, and after confirming that there were no traps, he signed his name.

After Qin Chen signed the dark contract, an invisible black light penetrated into his soul and stuck to his soul. However, this black light had no power. After penetrating into his soul, it merged into it and disappeared without a trace.

The dark contract is similar to curse magic. It plants a curse in the souls of both parties. If the contract is violated, the curse will be activated. If the contract is not violated, the curse will not be activated. When the contract disappears, the curse will also disappear.

"This is your magic tool. It's called Star Sand. It can restore all the magic energy of the four series of super-level second-level mage. There is one-tenth of the energy in it." Astraea handed over a necklace full of shining stars. Qin Chen said.

"Thank you."

Qin Chen held the woman's necklace and said twitchingly, "This magic tool looks like a female magic tool. As a grown man, he would definitely not dare to wear it around his neck. He could only throw it into the wand and sword space and wait for use." Take it out when the time comes.

In fact, there is one thing that Qin Chen doesn't know, that is, the value of reusable magic energy recovery equipment in China is often one or two levels higher than his own. In other words, the value of low-level heaven-level magic equipment Magical energy recovery equipment, its value is equivalent to mid-level heaven!

This time it was Qin Chen who made a lot of money!

"Qin Chen, I hear what you want. You are going to participate in the World University Competition. It is possible that we will meet in the competition. I am looking forward to your performance."

After Asharuya got the intermediate monarch-level spirit essence, she said with a smile, and threw a wink to Qin Chen before leaving.

"Nice body."

Qin Chen looked at Astraea's perfect figure with nostalgia. Unfortunately, this black rose had too many thorns, and he could not touch it now, otherwise he would probably be swallowed by the darkness and pierced by the sharp thorns.

"It's actually energy without attributes."

When Qin Chen looked inside the Star Sand Necklace magic tool, he found that it was actually non-attributed energy. This energy can be used to inject into any galaxy or sea of ​​magic, which means it can restore the magic energy of any magic system. .

It's just that this kind of energy is too precious, and this kind of domestic resource will not be sold to the outside world at all. Therefore, if Qin Chen wants to charge it in the future, he can only charge it with magic energy related to his own magic system.

"Although this kind of magic tool is very easy to use, it is too expensive. To completely fill this star sand, I feel that at least 15 billion is needed. It is really not something that people can afford. It is better to keep it as a trump card, or wait. Use it after becoming a demon." Qin Chen said speechlessly.

"The Hunter Alliance is such a good platform. In that case, I will issue another mission. I hope I can have the same luck this time."

Just when Qin Chen went to the Hunter Alliance platform to get his deposit back, he suddenly thought that he would need resources to break through to the super level in the future, especially the Xinghai Tianmai. There was no place to buy it, and the auction house also No.

As a temporary decision, Qin Chen directly paid 16 billion yuan here and issued an international reward in the Hunter League to "acquire Xinghai Tianmai". Generally, the price of Xinghai Tianmai is between 11 and 14 billion. Now Qin Chen directly An increase of two hundred million.

He posted the task here just to try his luck and see if a wizard with the Star Sea Sky Vein would sell it because he was short of money. Even if it was sold at an auction house, it would usually only fetch 15 billion. Now he was offering 16 billion! He was very rich!

"I hope the foreshadowing I laid will pay off."

With expectations for the future, Qin Chen left the Hunter Alliance and continued to practice hard. His current fire system was about to reach the peak of the advanced level one, and he had to seize the time to upgrade the fire system to the advanced level two.

"Ding ding ding!!!!"

"Old Zhao? What's the matter with calling me? Don't say you're inviting me to a place like that. I'm very clean."

Qin Chen saw that the caller ID was Zhao Manyan. After answering the call, he said without hesitation that it was not the first time that Zhao Manyan called because of this kind of thing. At his peak, such calls came almost every few days. Qin Chen almost blocked him.

"What kind of place? Damn, I'm very clean and tidy, okay? I didn't invite you last time because you said you wanted to go in and experience it."

After Zhao Manyan heard Qin Chen's words, he immediately refused. At first, he wanted to take him in to experience a different life for the sake of Qin Chen.

"Let's get down to business, or I'll die."

Qin Chen's face darkened. He was just talking about it at first, but he didn't expect Zhao Manyan to take it seriously and mentioned it many times. If Mu Nujiao and others found out, his image would be ruined.

"Didn't you ask me to find a fire soul seed before? Now I have found it, but it is being auctioned in Paris. If you want it, give me the money and I will ask someone to buy it back for you."

Zhao Manyan said, with a bit of sourness in his tone. Really, every time he asked him to buy things, every time he saw Qin Chen spending money like water, and every time he made a move, it was not less than 100 million. Let him, the second son of the Zhao family, compare No, that’s so fucking annoying!

"I'll give you 24 billion. One fire-type soul seed is not enough. Buy another one. There are also earth-type, wind-type, and thunder-type soul seeds. Buy them for me as long as you have them. Use 24 billion of the 20 billion. Come and buy soul seeds, 4 million for the soul seed fragments of the four types of soul seeds mentioned earlier."

Qin Chen said grandly, although Little Flame Fairy has not yet reached the warrior level, Qin Chen has now begun to prepare commander-level resources for Little Flame Fairy. There is no way, he knows that there will be inflation in the future, no, it is mage resources. It's rising sharply.

If we don’t take advantage of the low price of resources now, we may not be able to buy even one soul seed for one billion in the future. The current price of artificial soul seeds is only 3 to 5 million. Natural soul seeds that have no domain are generally Between 4 million and 6 million, soul seeds with realms start at 8 million.

So he is now asking Zhao Manyan to buy resources like crazy. Anyway, the Zhao family has a great business, and among the people he knows, Zhao Manyan is the only one who has the ability to plunder resources in bulk.

"Damn, you are really arrogant and inhumane. You don't regard money as money. I feel that you are the real rich man and I am just a fake."

Zhao Manyan was shocked by Qin Chen's handiwork and casually took out 24 billion in cash. Even those big families felt very distressed when they took it out, because many of the assets of those big families were in industries, and cash was not available at all. It's not much. If you want cash, you have to sell your assets or take out a loan, so few people have so much cash on them.

"Also, I am in urgent need of plant-type soul seeds with fields and wind-type soul seeds with fields. Whenever they appear, help me take pictures. If you don't have enough money, come to me." Qin Chen ignored Zhao Manyan and continued.

"Let me tell you, Qin Chen, the soul seeds that come with their own domain are out of stock all over the world. Even if they appear, they will be snatched away instantly. If you want to take a photo, the probability is very low."

Zhao Manyan said helplessly that if it were an artificial soul seed, he could still get it by virtue of his identity, but he was not sure whether he could get a domain soul seed, a scarce resource.

The Poison Demonic Vine Soul Seed that was auctioned in the Magic City, which was the plant soul seed that Qin Chen integrated into the Plant Devouring Seed, was also a coincidence. The original seller was in urgent need of money, so he brought it to the nearby Magic City for auction. Qin Chen bought it, and it has been so long now that he has never seen a plant-type soul seed with its own domain for sale.

"Old Zhao, I know about a water soul seed with its own domain."

Qin Chen also knows that Zhao Manyan does not have much power in the Zhao family, so if he wants to find plant soul seeds and wind soul seeds with their own fields, he needs the help of Zhao Manyan's father. Otherwise, with Zhao Manyan's methods, he may not be able to find them. arrive.

"What? A water-based soul seed with its own domain? Qin Chen, Brother Chen, you have to get this soul seed. Think about the hard work I have done for you over the years, without any credit."

Hearing Qin Chen's words, Zhao Manyan lost his composure. It was a soul seed that perfectly suited him. It was also a soul seed with its own domain. This kind of soul seed could only be encountered but not sought. If he missed it, it would be a lifetime thing.

In the original work, although Zhao Manyan's light, water, and earth elements all have soul seeds, they are all artificially smelted soul seeds. They are not naturally formed and do not have fields. When the Zhao family tried their best to purchase them, they could not buy those with their own fields. If the soul seed is given to Zhao Manyan, one can imagine how difficult it is to find a soul seed with its own domain.

"Okay, help me find the plant soul seeds and wind soul seeds that have their own fields. If you find them, I will naturally help you get the water soul seeds. Anyway, you haven't reached the high level of the water system yet, so why don't you use it? There is still time to reach the water soul seed."

Qin Chen said speechlessly. He used to think that Mo Fan could change his face quickly, but he didn't expect that Zhao Manyan's face changing speed was not inferior at all.

"No problem, just wait and I will find it for you."

With the temptation of the water soul seed, Zhao Manyan said with enthusiasm.

After hanging up the phone with Zhao Manyan, Qin Chen continued to go back to practice in seclusion. Now he is not short of resources or money. Even though he just spent 40 billion, he still has 20 billion. It is enough for the time being. What are you waiting for? Make money when you are short of money. Cultivation is the most important thing.

Chapter 163 Heading to the Ancient Capital

While Qin Chen was quietly retreating, a lot of things happened outside. For example, the selection competition for the World University Competition had begun. Almost everyone in the university started to sign up and then participate in the selection. Even if they knew they could not be selected, they all You still have to participate. This is a dream for all college students. If you don’t participate, you will probably regret it for the rest of your life many years later.

However, there are also some people who do not participate and join the World University Competition instead of taking the path of a school. For example, Zhao Manyan simply bought it with money. For example, other powerful families rely on their family's power and favor to find world schools. The big shots in the competition want the votes in their hands, and Qin Chen is a typical example.

The World University Competition is a competition jointly organized by big families and powerful forces around the world. It is not just as simple as bringing together a dozen of the most powerful young people from each country to compete. It involves many powerful people. The World University Competition is never as simple as it seems on the surface. The real value of the World University Competition is all the calculations and hidden interests hidden behind the scenes.

After two months of retreat, Qin Chen finally upgraded the fire element to the second level of advanced level, which meant that his retreat was over.

"Hey, if you rely on your own cultivation, your promotion will be too slow. You still need to find some external forces to assist your cultivation."

Although Qin Chen broke through the high-level level two, he was still unhappy because it was too slow. Compared to others, his cultivation speed was already very fast. Not only was he blessed by the high-level soul-level galaxy magic weapon, but also It is equivalent to the blessing of the peak soul-level magic weapon Demonic Sword. The most important thing is that the two can be superimposed on each other, allowing Qin Chen's cultivation speed to increase by leaps and bounds.

However, Qin Chen now has six magic systems. If he practices each magic system like this, his cultivation speed will still be slow compared to other geniuses.

"Ding ding ding!!!!!!"

"Mo Fan, what do you want from me? Are you in trouble and want to seek my protection?"

Qin Chen looked at the note on his phone, clicked to answer, and then asked. Mo Fan rarely contacted him proactively, so he asked curiously.

"Brother Chen, something happened to Zhang Xiaohou while he was on a mission in the ancient capital. Didn't you ask Lingling to put a locating object on Zhang Xiaohou's body? Is there any way to find Zhang Xiaohou?"

Mo Fan asked hurriedly. When everyone was preparing to leave in Dunhuang, Qin Chen asked Lingling to give Zhang Xiaohou a locator. This locator can locate Zhang Xiaohou's position within a certain range. Qin Chen joked that in order to I will go collect Zhang Xiaohou’s body in the future.

Although Zhang Xiaohou was curious as to why Qin Chen would do this, Zhang Xiaohou believed that Qin Chen, Mo Fan and others would not harm him, so he agreed and kept the locator on his body, even when he was on a mission.

"Go to Qingtian Hunting House to find Lingling. She will tell you how to find Zhang Xiaohou. You don't have to worry too much. Zhang Xiaohou is lucky and will not die so easily. He may be trapped somewhere and can't come back." Qin Chen said.

"Well, I won't believe that the monkey died like this."

Mo Fan quickly hung up the phone and rushed to Qingtian Hunting Ground. Even if it was the qualifiers for the World Academy Competition, Mo Fan would simply give up and not participate. In his heart, the World Academy Competition was not as important as his brother Zhang Xiaohou.

"In the end, it returned to its original trajectory. I had warned Zhang Xiaohou to be careful before, but I didn't expect that what was supposed to happen would still happen. Forget it, I just happened to have a breakthrough. It's time to go to the ancient capital to verify my conjecture."

Qin Chen looked into the distance. His eyes were as deep as the starry sky on the other side, as if they contained endless calculations and thoughts.

In the backyard of Qingtian Hunting Ground, four little guys, Little Yan Ji, Little Jiaolong, Little Emperor, Little Tianju and Lingling were playing happily. Lingling was sitting beside them, directing Little Yan Ji and Little Jiaolong to catch Little Tianju and Little Emperor. Little Tianju was very fast and Little Yan Ji could not catch it. Every time Little Emperor was about to catch Little Jiaolong, he would release a stone wall to block its claws.

With Lingling's clever command, and the fact that Xiao Tianju and Xiao Dijun were limited in power, Xiao Yanji and Xiao Long both had the possibility of winning. Whoever wins can get an extra snack, so the four little ones The guys are very serious.

Suddenly, the four little guys looked outside at the same time, and then rushed to the door without even thinking about playing games.

"Hey, little guys, how are you doing these days?"

Qin Chen walked in from the door and smiled.

"whisper!!!!"

Little Flame Fairy took the lead in spinning a few times in front of Qin Chen's head, and then flew to the top of Qin Chen's head to act as a flame hairstyle.

"Roar!!!!"

The little dragon jumped onto Qin Chen's shoulders and hung around his neck, acting as a deep blue scarf.

"hiss!!!!"

Xiao Tianju couldn't be as small as Little Flame Fairy and Little Dragon, but she still walked around Qin Chen a few times and rubbed her head against Qin Chen's clothes.

"Gulugulu!!"

The little emperor became more calm, but he was still a child at heart and pulled Qin Chen's clothes to eat snacks.

"Hmph, a heartless guy."

When Lingling saw Qin Chen coming, all these little guys ran over and pouted.

"Little Lingling, thank you for taking care of these little guys these days."

Qin Chen saw Lingling's jealous look, smiled slightly, touched her little head and said.

"Don't touch my head, I still want to grow taller."

Lingling shook off Qin Chen's big hand and said dissatisfied.

"I'm going to take these little guys to the competition and let them experience it. I'm going to leave first."
