Chapter 358: Buying and Selling at a Loss
It's been about two and a half years since Nakur was killed. The gathering of the demon gods was once again held on the island in the middle of the lake.
For more than two years, Du Shen has not blindly cultivated. He often visits the nearby demon gods, and uses his life force, even from Nakul's territory, to trade many strange things with others.
The demon god of Sage has chosen a very single path. Some rare treasures are also covered with dust. It's cheap. For example, to improve the treasure of the Nai He Zhu, supplemented by the previous preparation in the Yuzhen World, Du Shen has already raised the Nai He Zhu to level 17.
This gathering can be said to be specially held for Du Shen. Most of the goods prepared by the 9 demon gods were all intended to be purchased by Du Shen before.
The party was a great joy. The Demon God harvests a large amount of life force, and even a small amount of territory. Du Shen obtained many precious things, many of which could not be used directly, but could be sold in the future at the Yuzhen World.
It's time to exchange information with each other. Van Le walked up to Du Shen alone: "Your Excellency, forgive me for taking the liberty of asking. Why did you waste so much life force and territory to buy treasures that were useless? ”
"It's not a secret," Du Shen said calmly, "I have my own way of cultivating. I think my previous way of doing is very good, and I don't want to change it. ”
Van Le's eyes lit up. Although he had already used his means to avoid the transmission of sound, he still subconsciously lowered his voice: "So, the altars of Finsel, Nakur and Kir are useless to Your Excellency? What price do you want to pay for it? ”
"Well." Du Shen groaned for a while before replying, "I'm sorry." I don't want to sell the altar for the time being. Unless I come across a particularly precious treasure, or if I run out of other things. ”
Van Le's eyes sparkled and he leaned in slightly: "Specifically, what kind of treasure do you like?" ”
"I don't know," Du Shen strode slowly, "It's best to have a treasure that can enhance my cultivation." But the treasures of this world are too complicated for me to classify. All right, Lord Vanle. That's the end of the question. I'd like to talk to other people. ”
Van Le watched Du Shenyuan go. He watched Du Shen talk to the others, his eyes flickering.
At the end of the party, Du Shen and the other demon gods left together. Two demon gods, a man and a woman, went and returned. Van Le had been waiting for the two for a long time. He led the two into the villa.
"How," asked the gray-haired youth as he walked, "is he willing to sell the altar?" ”
Van Le shook his head and prepared the liquor brewed from human blood for the two allies: "A pretext, he probably doesn't want to make a move." ”
The gray-haired man took the glass. The tall woman waved her hand in disgust: "Then what should we do?" Want to get your hands dirty? ”
There was silence in the living room. Van Le once again remembered the fight he had fought more than two years ago. In the past two years, Van Le and others also wanted to test Du Shen's strength, but they have not been able to find a suitable opportunity.
"Let's wait and see." Van Le gently shook the glass.
"Okay." The other two nodded indifferently.
Du Shen returned to the territory, inspected the territory, and began to retreat. He was in a secret room, arranging a tight formation to isolate movement.
Du Shen took out three hourglass-shaped objects. The object resembles a naturally growing coral, which can be roughly divided into six branches. Du Shen activates three coral hourglasses. In the center of the three corals, a silver ball gradually appears. The silver ball was the size of a finger at first, but soon swelled to about three meters in diameter.
Du Shen made a little preparation and drilled into the silver ball. Du Shen felt like he had fallen into a falling passage. It felt like it was only a moment, but in fact, it was likely that a long time had passed, and Du Shen fell out of the passage.
The sun is shining, the blue sea is endless, the sea breeze is peaceful, the sea is calm, and unknown seabirds fly over Du Shen's head.
Du Shen looked up at the sky and did not feel the energy layer like smoke and dust. He was sure that the delivery was successful. Du Shen quietly dispersed his thoughts and looked for the nearest land.
If the location of the teleportation is not wrong, this world should be called Rak, and it is very close to the lair of Uchuri. It is precisely because the world of Rak is considered the hinterland of Uchuli that there are not many strong apostles stationed in this world.
Du Shen crossed the ocean and reached the nearest continent. He discovered the Cult of Pain, and he discovered Uchuri's direct subordinates, but he easily covered up the past.
It took half a day for Du Shen to find a group of horse thieves. This kind of person will not care too much about life and death, whether it is good or evil. It is suitable for Du Shen to be used for quiet sacrifice.
Kill all the horse thieves in the camp first, and then throw them into the Bone Altar along with their mounts. Du Shen successfully obtained the power of life.
The traces of the camp were disguised as large-scale battles. Du Shen flew into the depths of the remote mountains. He carved a secret chamber in the belly of a certain mountain, and placed three funnel corals as well.
The silver ball appeared, and Du Shen dived into it, soon returning to the world of Sage.
More than ten days later, Du Shen quietly went to the island in the middle of the lake at night. He failed to find Van Le and stayed in the gazebo near the villa. It wasn't until the sky turned slightly pale that Van Le returned to his lodgings.
"Lord Fensel," Van Le flew into the pavilion and landed in front of Du Shen, "I'm sorry, I didn't know you came to visit, you must have waited a long time, right?" Please follow me. ”
"I took the liberty to come to the door." Du Shen followed Van Le, who turned around.
When the two of them walked into the villa, it was actually more like entering a castle in disguise. Fan Le took out the blood wine and planned to entertain Du Shen, but Du Shen waved his hand and refused.
"Your Excellency Van Le," Du Shen paced slowly through the vast hall, "there shouldn't be anyone else in this building, right?" ”
"Of course," Van Le followed behind Du Shen, "I just came back from the harvest. ”
Du Shen stopped and turned around: "I'm here to trade with Your Excellency." I would like to exchange land with you. Exchange the rest of Nakur's territory with Finsel. ”
Van Le was stunned. Although I don't know much about Du Shen's territory, I don't know much about it. But Van Le was sure that if he exchanged territory with Du Shen, he would definitely take a big advantage.
"Why," Van Le quickly turned his mind to speculate on the reason, "the division of the territory has been discussed and confirmed by everyone. It is inconvenient for us to exchange in private. ”
"I have my reasons," Du Shen said flatly, "Your Excellency, after thinking about it, just tell me if you want to." ”
Van Le couldn't guess the exact possibility for a moment. He rolled his eyes, and the lion opened his mouth: "Unless you give me a complete altar." ”
Du Shen shook his head: "The altar is impossible, I can pay you another amount of life force." ”
Van Le became more and more determined: "I don't want the life force, only the altar." ”
"Your Excellency is too greedy," Du Shen walked slowly towards the door, "You are not the only trading target. I can give you five days to think about it. After five days, please give me a reasonable price. Otherwise, I'll just swap with someone else. ”
Van Le opened his mouth to keep Du Shen. Du Shen didn't pay attention. Van Le watched Du Shen walk out of the door. He thought to himself, "Why, would he make such a loss-making exchange?" ”
Van Le had a faint headache. He has paid great attention to collecting Du Shen's information on weekdays. However, at this time, he felt that he knew too little, and he couldn't find a clue for a while.
Van Le was thinking wildly when he suddenly sensed a guest visiting. He thought, and the door of the villa opened silently.
A finger-sized flying insect flew in through the door. Flying insects are a bit like dragonflies, but their entire body is about the size of a dragonfly, and they have many legs. Far away, the flying insect sent a clear message: "Van Le, I want to talk to you about the outsider. He just left, right? ”
"Yes," Van Le saluted the Flying Worm respectfully, "Lord Beagle, I look forward to your presence at any time. ”
"Now then." The flying insect landed on the ground, and its whole body shook violently. The flying insect's body swelled rapidly, and in the blink of an eye, it turned into a handsome young man in armor.
The young man has black hair and black eyes, and the material of his armor is like the shell of an insect: "What did he come to you for?" ”
Van Le replied truthfully: "He came to me to exchange land." He is even willing to pay an extra amount of life force for this. ”
Beagle smiled: "This is a loss-making business!" Do you know why? ”
Van Le shook his head: "I'm not the only trading target. ”
