The Mysterious Palace Lord
Chapter 727: The Mysterious Palace Lord
Xuanyuan was not in a hurry to go to the Taibai Chamber of Commerce because the huge auction banquet would be held in a month. Right now, it was still being prepared, so it would be useless to go there. Most importantly, if he had no money in his pocket, his heart would be in a panic. Money was not everything, but money was absolutely necessary. After several battles, Xuanyuan's pure spirit source, battle immortal coins, and life immortal coins had all been used up. Now, he had to make some money first.
"Now, I will first go to the Taibai Chamber of Commerce to collect the reward. I'm afraid that after the eight devil incarnate are done enjoying themselves, they will probably curse their mothers if they can't get the reward. I really don't know what kind of expression they will have when they can't get the reward. In any case, they have already gotten enough, without me as the bait, how could they get what they want?"
Xuanyuan laughed, then quickly walked towards the Reward and Punishment Hall of the Island of the Immortals. He was very happy.
The Reward and Punishment Hall of the Island of the Immortals was located in the center of the main city. This place punished those who made mistakes and rewarded those like Xuanyuan who completed the bounty task or made great contributions. The reward and punishment were clear, and it was judged by the people of the world. Favoritism and fraud were not allowed.
The Reward and Punishment Hall was very high, and the door was huge. The whole hall was built with white boulders. On top of it, there were lines of divine patterns, and there was an ancient charm of the Great Dao flowing. It gave people the feeling that they had experienced the vicissitudes of life, the ups and downs of the world, and the wind and frost of thousands of years. It made people's hearts tremble.
This hall gave people the feeling that it was a magic treasure. It contained an unfathomable power. This was Xuanyuan's most instinctive feeling. It seemed that in the depths of this hall, there was a majesty that could not be offended. If anyone dared to offend it, there would be a thunderous rage that would annihilate the offender.
Under the huge hall, there were nine thousand nine hundred and ninety-nine steps that extended all the way to the bottom with white jade as the stairs.
However, not everyone could ascend to the Reward and Punishment Main Hall. Below the Reward and Punishment Main Hall, there were guards on both sides of the nine thousand nine hundred and ninety-nine white jade steps. Every guard's strength was at least that of a second change Dou Xian. The higher the guards were, the higher their strength.
Xuanyuan was wearing a disguise. When he arrived at the first step, he was stopped by eight guards. One of the older guards asked, "What's wrong with you?
"Are you here to receive your reward or punishment?"
"Of course I'm here to receive my reward. Do you think there's anyone who would deliver themselves to be punished? How could there be such a fool in this world? "Xuanyuan laughed.
"Of course there are. Some people would be lenient in order to reduce their punishment. Since you are here to receive your reward, then you will receive your reward according to the rank of the reward." The guard no longer stopped him and let Xuanyuan go up.
The rank of the reward they were talking about was similar to that of the three Life Immortal Pirates. As for the so-called Reward and Punishment Rank, every nine hundred and ninety-nine jade steps represented a rank. The reward that Xuanyuan was going to receive was the Life Rank on the Reward and Punishment Platform.
Xuanyuan's steps were light and graceful like a ghost. He soared through the nine heavens and broke through the air like lightning. This attracted the attention of many people. It was shocking that a sixth change Dou Xian could be so fast.
Xuanyuan quickly reached the Life Rank.
This was a vast expanse of land that spanned tens of thousands of meters. At the center, there was a white jade table with a zither placed on it. A hale and hearty old man with a ruddy complexion and a sharp aura exuded from between his brows, giving off an upright and outspoken feeling. He sat cross-legged on the ground, his hands playing the zither. His fingertips lightly moved, and the zither music was filled with a sense of righteousness.
Seeing that someone had arrived, he stopped his father and stood up to look at Xuanyuan. A strange light flashed in his eyes. The old man chuckled and said,
"Young man, are you here to receive your reward?"
"Yes, it's a pleasure to meet you, senior." Xuanyuan bowed respectfully. It was not because the old man was strong, but because the old man had a good character and was worthy of respect. Xuanyuan did not dare to be negligent.
"Hmm, what kind of reward did you complete?" The old man's strength was at the peak of the Life Immortal Realm. He was already half a step away from the Earth Immortal Realm. He could feel that the young man in front of him was not as simple as he looked.
"Seventy-two Pirates." The old man was shocked when he heard Xuanyuan's words. He might not be able to complete the task even if he was asked to do it himself. These pirates, even the lowest ranked ones, were ruthless and ruthless. They were all heroes of their generation. They had experienced countless battles and their methods were vicious. Ordinary people with the same strength as them would not be able to match them. However, the young man in front of him was able to complete the task.
"What? Which one did you kill?" The old man was surprised and asked quickly.
"Three!" Xuanyuan said.
"What? Three? Which three? " The old man was in disbelief. Xuanyuan was only a Sixth Revolution Immortal. How could he kill three Life Immortal Realm experts?
Xuanyuan used his fingertip to draw out the remnant souls of the last three Life Xian pirates from the ring. Their twisted faces appeared on the souls. They looked ferocious and roared crazily.
"I won't let you go even if I become a ghost. I will kill you. Hahahaha …"
"I curse you to die in the Heaven's Tribulation. Don't think that you can escape this tribulation by killing us. You so-called geniuses will die in your own tribulations …"
"You will die a horrible death. Don't think that you can enter the Emperor Realm in your lifetime. In this era, no one can enter the Emperor Realm. Just give up …"
The moment the three remnant souls were drawn out, they cursed one after another. An extremely violent aura spread in all directions, penetrating people's hearts and bones. It was extremely terrifying. It was no wonder that the three Life Fairy Pirates died such an aggrieved death. Before they died, they were not only shackled but also humiliated by the eight devils. They were also stripped of everything except their underwear. Fortunately, they didn't wear expensive underwear. Otherwise, they wouldn't even have their underwear left. Xuanyuan could understand how they felt when their life savings were emptied, humiliated, and then died a violent death.
However, this was just an eye for an eye. They had done countless evil deeds, and this was retribution.
"How about it? Will you pay me according to the reward?" Xuanyuan asked.
"Good, they really are the Heartless Bandits, the Slaughter Bandits, and the Ghost Bandits. They are the last three of the 72 Pirates." The old man's eyes were filled with shock and amazement. At the same time, he was filled with admiration. He had never thought that someone from the younger generation would be able to complete this bounty. He collected the three souls and was overjoyed. This was completely out of his expectations.
"Yes, the Island of the Immortals is a man of his word. These three pirates have done countless evil deeds during their lifetime. They killed millions of innocent people. Their hands were stained with blood. They stole people's treasures, raped women, and committed all kinds of evil deeds. Today, they will be executed. Since you completed the bounty, you will be rewarded with a total of 100 million Life Celestial Coins.
Please keep it well. "As soon as the old man's voice fell, he took out a fighting ring and handed it to Xuanyuan. Xuanyuan opened it and let the Greedy Old Man count it.
"Thank you, Senior." Xuanyuan put away the fighting ring and was about to leave. However, the old man stopped Xuanyuan and said, "Young man, wait.
"Young man, wait a moment. I have a few questions for you."
"Senior, please ask."
"You are not from the East Sea. Is your outfit related to an organization called 'Samsara'? I have been to the Eastern Continent and fought with the Killing Immortal of 'Samsara'. You give me a vague feeling." The old man's voice was gentle as he asked Xuanyuan.
Xuanyuan frowned and paused for a moment.
"Indeed. I have been training in 'Samsara', but I don't want to kill innocent people, and I don't want to have too many disputes with the big forces. I need money, so I came to the East Sea to find trouble with those who have committed the most heinous crimes. On the one hand, I can sharpen myself, and on the other hand, I can get rid of evil for the people, and on the other hand, I can solve my difficulties. That's why I came here."
The old man in front of him was unyielding, upright and plainspoken. Xuanyuan's words were in line with the old man's standards. Xuanyuan was very impressed, and clapped his hands in delight, "You're right, you're right.
"Good, well said. I know that in 'Samsara', there are many geniuses from the big forces who go there to train and sharpen their hearts. I will not ask about your identity in detail. However, I have just received news about the whereabouts of the 'Deep Sea Pirate', ranked 69th, and I continue to track him. Do you dare to accept this reward?
"Well, based on his name, I am afraid that this pirate must be hiding in the deep sea. Fighting in the deep sea is extremely disadvantageous for me. Moreover, in a month's time, the 'Taibai Chamber of Commerce' auction will be held. I am extremely short of money. As the saying goes, money makes the world go round. If the reward is extremely high, maybe I will give it a try!" Xuanyuan frowned. As a matter of fact, for someone like him, fighting in the deep sea was the most advantageous. Now that he was short of money, the reason why he said that was to increase the reward.
"That's right. This' Deep Sea Pirate 'cultivates the magical power of water and is extremely difficult to deal with. Many people have already been killed by him. He is extremely rampant, and recently, he has killed many innocent people. If you hadn't killed these three pirates by yourself, I would not have dared to let a young man like you take this task." The old man sighed and continued.
"In just a few years, this' Deep Sea Pirate 'has killed countless rogue cultivators and plundered countless things. His reward is as high as 200 million Life Celestial Coins. If you can kill him, I will see if I can apply to the Temple Master to increase the reward for you. In return, it can be considered as giving peace to the people of the sea around the Island of Immortals!"
This old man had lived for a long time, so he understood the meaning behind Xuanyuan's words. He also liked the straightforwardness of this young man in front of him.
"There is no need to apply. Young man, if you can kill this' Deep Sea Pirate ', I will give you 300 million Life Celestial Coins. However, your life is in danger. You can weigh the pros and cons yourself. We will not force you." A soft female voice came out, like a clear spring hitting a stone. It was extremely pleasing to the ear. Every syllable contained the rhythm of the Great Dao. This woman's cultivation was unfathomable. Xuanyuan was shocked.
The old man hurriedly bowed to the magnificent Reward and Punishment Hall behind him.
