Chapter 255: Leaving money to buy the way
Lu Chen raised the price on the spot, asking Yan Zixia to take out 100,000 mid-grade spirit stones, plus 50% of the spirit herbs she had obtained, and it was a friendly price. If it was not a friendly price, how much would it be?
Their conversation was heard clearly by everyone present, and they all accused Lu Chen of being greedy, despicable, taking advantage of others' misfortune, and adding insult to injury.
One hundred thousand middle-grade spirit stones is not a small number. Even the Jindan-stage cultivators present may not be able to come up with it.
What's more, those monks in the fusion stage can't take it out at all.
This is also because Lu Chen has been used to having smooth sailing all the way, and the spirit stones he earns each time are in the tens of thousands, so that he ignores the normal income level of other cultivators.
Lu Chen didn't care about what people were talking about. He believed that these people would bow to him and compromise in order to survive.
However, there were also some self-righteous cultivators who jumped out and refuted Lu Chen.
I saw an old man with a thin figure, sunken eye sockets, hooked nose, deep eyes, and gray beard. He was very dissatisfied with what Lu Chen did. He walked out of the crowd and said coldly:
"Humph! Boy! The teleportation array has existed since ancient times. You were just the first to discover it, but you set up the array to stop us.
I advise you to be smart and not try to rob us, otherwise we will work together to break through the defense formation you set up and crush you to ashes.
By then, you may not get anything and even lose your life. If you open the formation obediently and wait for us to get out,
Maybe they will even give you some resources.”
Lu Chen sneered in his heart when he heard this.
I thought, "What do you mean by teleportation arrays have existed since ancient times?
If he did not possess the Chaos Dao Sheng Jue and use its powerful analytical function, I believe that no one present would have been able to discover the existence of the teleportation array.
You are so generous to give me some resources! "
"Humph! What a joke! I don't want to waste my time talking to you. What you said really upset me.
Now I declare that the conditions for others to leave this space remain unchanged, but you must give me 200,000 medium-grade spirit stones, plus 70% of the spirit herbs you obtain.
Otherwise, you will just die of old age in this space. Anyway, I think you won’t live long at your age, and there is no need to spend such a high price to get out. Don’t you think so? "
Lu Chen also snorted coldly, gave the old man a stupid look, and said sarcastically.
"Hahaha..." Lu Chen's words immediately caused everyone to laugh.
"You! Boy, you are looking for death!" The old man's face darkened when he heard this and he said angrily.
As he spoke, he flashed in front of the light curtain of the formation and summoned a magic sword. Under the infusion of true energy, the magic sword flashed with sharp sword light.
The old man had a cold expression, and seemed to be very angry. He swung his sword and chopped directly at the light curtain of the formation set up by Lu Chen.
The sword flashed, and the magic sword cut a long hole in the light curtain of the formation like cutting a watermelon.
"Crack..." A sound like glass breaking was heard.
Then the light curtain of the formation in front of the old man collapsed directly. Seeing this, the old man's face lit up and he thought:
"It turns out that this kid's formation skills are only this good!"
Seeing that Lu Chen was right in front of him, the old man immediately used his skills to try to take Lu Chen down.
Everyone saw the old man break the formation set up by Lu Chen so easily.
Many people thought that the formation set up by Lu Chen was just a paper tiger, but it turned out to be so vulnerable.
"Oh no! There's something strange about that formation!" Someone pointed in Lu Chen's direction and suddenly screamed.
As everyone saw, the light curtain of the formation that had been shattered by the old man was instantly restored when the old man flashed close to Lu Chen.
The originally transparent light curtain of the formation suddenly became blurry, as if it was filled with thick fog, making it difficult to see the situation inside.
Lu Chen's figure and the entire thatched hut disappeared into the mist.
“It’s a defensive formation plus an offensive formation, and it seems there’s also an illusion formation, and they’re all sixth-grade spiritual formations.
This kid is really a freak. The art of formation is so difficult, but I didn't expect that he is actually a sixth-grade spiritual formation master! "Xiahou Sheng, who saw the clue, was shocked.
I couldn't help but take a deep breath, because even he was only a fifth-grade spirit formation master. Don't underestimate this small level difference.
Some formation masters cannot cross this gap in their entire life.
"Ah..." At this moment, a heart-wrenching scream suddenly came from inside the light curtain of the formation.
The sound was chilling, and many monks subconsciously took a step back.
Everyone was guessing what had happened inside the formation's light curtain, but it was not difficult to guess the fate of the early Jindan cultivator.
Hu Shilong frowned slightly when he saw this. He was also shocked by Lu Chen's method. He didn't expect that the other party, a kid in the early stage of fusion,
He was actually able to use the formation to kill a cultivator in the early Jindan stage. No wonder the other party was able to break the formation set up by the master and obtain the Heart Fire of the Heavenly Fire Mist Lotus.
It seems that to deal with this kid, we have to guard against him using formations, Hu Shilong thought to himself.
Mei Yeqing was also watching all this in shock. He didn't expect that the little man he looked down upon before would actually have such means.
At this time, the thick fog in the formation light curtain quickly dissipated, and at the same time, Lu Chen's figure appeared in front of everyone again.
However, the old man in the early stage of the Golden Core Realm had disappeared. Needless to say, everyone knew that the old man was probably dead.
"Hehehe... Sorry! I kept you waiting for so long. There was a small problem.
But it will not affect everyone leaving this space. Let me say one more thing. I will only give you one stick of incense.
If you haven't made a choice yet, then I'll leave. Before I leave, I will detonate the formation at a scheduled time, and then I won't be able to control whether you can get out or not.
Also, don't even think about working together to break the formation and capture me.
Because it only takes two or three breaths for me to leave and detonate the formation, so I advise everyone not to joke about your life for a little material possession."
Lu Chen smiled nonchalantly, but his words were full of threats.
Many cultivators looked bitter when they heard this, because what Lu Chen said was exactly what they thought, but now they did not dare to act rashly.
Just as Lu Chen said, if they can't take Lu Chen down in a few breaths,
If the teleportation array is detonated on time before Lu Chen leaves, who can they cry to?
There were quite a few cultivators who wanted to kill Lu Chen, but after Lu Chen made an example of him, more cultivators were afraid of his methods.
For a moment, many monks had already begun to accept defeat and prepared storage bags in advance, ready to leave money for passage.
Hu Shilong flashed in front of the formation light curtain, glanced at Lu Chen, and without saying a word, he directly threw a storage bag to Lu Chen.
He really didn't want to stay in this damn place any longer. If something unexpected happened again, who would he go to for justice...
