Chapter 5085 Ten Worlds Diagram
Long Chen left arrogantly, while Netherdragon Wushang and the others blazed with rage. In the end, they gritted their teeth and stepped forward to the stall with murderous glares in their eyes, carrying out another bout of bargaining to buy the dragon cores, scales, and horns.
“Long Chen, what did you tell the elder? Why did he sell them to you for such a low price?” asked Feng You.
Long Chen smiled. “I told him he was holding a hot potato and being targeted by the petty-minded Netherdragon race was a very dangerous thing. Unless he had a solid relationship with the Brahma Pill Valley, he wouldn’t be able to leave the Glacial Heaven Domain safely. However, if he sold the dragon corpses to me, with Netherdragon Wushang’s impatient nature, that dumbass would worry that the other items would be bought one by one, making them harder to track down.
“Furthermore, this matter relates to the Netherdragon race’s face. From their reaction, I guessed they very likely didn’t have enough money to buy everything. It was a dilemma for them: they either had to buy everything or nothing at all. They wouldn’t toss aside the corpses and only buy the crystals, horns, and scales. But with the dragon corpses taken out of the equation, they should have enough money to buy the rest. Because of this, hehe, that elder sold the corpses to me.”
“How do you know they just happen to have enough money to buy the rest?” asked Hu Xiaoyu curiously.
“When they haggled before, the Netherdragon race definitely proposed a lowball offer. Since the elder sold the dragon corpses to me, the value of the rest of the items is probably close to what the Netherdragon race has to offer. If the difference was too great, the elder wouldn’t have sold the dragon corpses to me. In truth, I saw that they were afraid of the Netherdragon race and wanted to get rid of the hot potato as quickly as possible. That way, they won’t have to worry about being pursued by the Netherdragon race. Thanks to me, the Netherdragon race’s fury will focus on me, not them, so they’re safe,” answered Long Chen.
Hearing this, the three of them realized that the cheap price was based on multiple factors. Long Chen’s wits had always been unmatchable, and Hu Xiaoyu and Feng You were rather used to it. Finding him again was like finding their mental pillar. They weren’t worried about the mixed beast race, as they now had the support of the white dragon race. The mixed beast race wouldn’t dare to touch Feng You’s followers.
Most importantly, Feng You had obtained the phoenix marrow. Once she refined it and endured the baptism of the Heavenly Flames and heavenly tribulation in the Heavenly Flame Devil Domain, she would be able to fully merge with it. At that time, she would be able to destroy the mixed beast alliance with a wave of her hand. What did she have to worry about?
The four of them continued to go around the stalls, visiting every single one. Long Chen was searching for some odd treasures. After all, countless items that normally couldn’t see the light of day were being brought out today. However, the sellers were rather sly. While their wares were good, their prices were also excessive. Even with Long Chen’s wealth, he felt that some were too much.
After passing by ten stalls, Long Chen saw multiple things that drew his attention—precious divine materials, immortal metals, runic bones, and immemorial scrolls. Unfortunately, the prices were simply too high for him.
However, at the next stall, Hu Xiaoyu’s body quivered. She saw a Spirit Fox bone sparkling with odd fluctuations that seemed to call out to her.
Unable to ignore this, Long Chen directly paid five hundred Sage King Pills to buy it.
Although Long Chen knew that this bone was not worth the price, there was no way around it. The seller had seen her reaction, making Long Chen lose his chance to haggle over it. Furthermore, Long Chen didn’t have that much time to waste, so he directly paid full price for it.
After the purchase, Hu Xiaoyu hugged the Spirit Fox bone tightly, not saying a word. She was so cute that Long Chen couldn’t help but rub her head and say a few comforting words. When they continued onward, they soon saw a stall with countless people around it.
Long Chen squeezed in, but no one on the other side came up to greet him. In fact, there was only a single elder sitting in the stall, his eyes closed in meditation.
Other stalls had piles of treasures, but this one was rather empty. The large stall displayed only three items: a cauldron, a painting, and a halberd.
When Long Chen saw the cauldron, he couldn’t help but let out a startled cry. Was this not precisely the Heaven Earth Cauldron? Long Chen was completely stunned.
This cauldron seemed identical to the Earth Cauldron. Its aura was incredibly ancient, filled with the essence of time. It was clearly no ordinary counterfeit as Long Chen sensed vast medicinal energy fluctuations from it. This cauldron had definitely been used to refine medicinal pills for long periods of time.
“Senior, what is going on?” Long Chen asked the Earth Cauldron.
The Earth Cauldron didn’t reply, but Long Chen noticed its attention was locked on the painting and the halberd.
From the crowd, a young expert shouted, “Senior, what are these three treasures called?”
The surrounding experts noticed that these three items were not ordinary, but they didn’t recognize them. Some people seemed to have seen some clues but chose not to speak, merely watching in silence.
“If you don’t recognize them, it means these treasures have no destiny with you. Due to the implications, you shouldn’t ask about them,” replied the elder, who didn't even raise his head or open his eyes.
“Are you joking? If you don’t introduce them, how are we supposed to know what they are? You’re even asking three thousand Sage King Pills for each of them! Are you waiting for fools with money to come to your door?!” raged the young expert.
The elder remained unfazed, not even twitching in response to the indignation.
Since the Earth Cauldron seemed to be thinking, Long Chen’s gaze shifted from the cauldron to the painting.
When Long Chen looked at it, his body shook. It was incredibly chaotic and messy, resembling a children’s scribbling. Yet, he was strangely drawn to it. Amidst the chaos, he saw a ring of nine stars surrounding one large star.
This image was familiar to Long Chen. He had once borrowed the eyes of a dragon expert to see it and also encountered it in ancient murals more than once.
It was a divine diagram of countless interweaving runes, resembling millions of diagrams layered together, which created a disordered appearance. After staring at it for a while, Long Chen felt a wave of dizziness, as if his soul were being thrown into chaos.
What is that?!
At this moment, the Earth Cauldron’s voice echoed in his mind. “One of the ten great primal chaos divine items—the Ten Worlds Diagram!”
