"Tsk!"
"That's enough!"
"You can do that?"
"There are really all kinds of people here!"
Luo Jin took out his resources and the crowd booed. Many people felt that he was too shameless to take out a first-grade herb. No matter how poor the people here were, they did not lack first-grade herbs!
"You're all envious. You're just jealous! So what if it's a first-grade resource? A first-grade resource is still a resource. If you look down on first-grade resources, give me a few thousand kilograms and I'll take it all! Besides, they're just making a bet. What they care about is winning or losing. They don't care what resources they're buying from me. "Luo Jin glared fiercely at the onlookers.
"Indeed, we don't care about your resources. What we care about is our reputation and our wager!" Cui Ying smiled and then looked at Gu Zheng. "Can we start now?"
"Yes, we'll put the resources in private. You lead the way!" Gu Zheng said.
"Do me a favor!" Cui Ying said to Nangong Chen.
"No problem." Nangong Chen responded and followed Cui Ying's footsteps.
"Come with us." Gu Zheng called out to the disciple of the Heavenly Spiral Sect.
Gu Zheng and the others did not leave the Dragon Battle Square but went to a corner. Nangong Chen gestured for Gu Zheng to move back. The immortal artifact ring on his finger suddenly flashed.
In front of everyone, a black light screen appeared as the light on Nangong Chen's ring flickered.
"Turn around."
Nangong Chen first asked the Heavenly Spiral Sect disciple to turn around. Then, he said to Gu Zheng, "Go behind the light screen and put the resources. After that, it's Cui Ying's turn."
Gu Zheng didn't say much. He walked to the back of the light screen and placed the resources he had thought of into two wooden boxes.
In less than a minute, Gu Zheng walked out of the light screen and asked Cui Ying to enter.
Cui Ying also used a very short time. After putting the resources in, she asked Gu Zheng to enter.
After Gu Zheng entered, Cui Ying looked at him and smiled. There were two more boxes on the ground.
There seemed to be no problem with the rules. Gu Zheng understood that the key to Cui Ying's victory was in this place. The other party was either planning to use two resources that they felt could overwhelm him and obtain victory through hard goods, or they were preparing two resources that were not overwhelming but were still not bad. But if that was the case, Cui Ying's secret to winning was definitely in choosing Gu Zheng's resources.
Gu Zheng felt that Cui Ying should be able to see what was in the box, so she dared to make such a bet with Gu Zheng. If Cui Ying was relying on luck, Gu Zheng would not believe it even if he was beaten to death.
"How do you feel? Do you have a high chance of winning? "Cui Ying asked with a smile.
"What kind of certainty can there be? It all depends on luck!" Gu Zheng shook his head.
"Tsk, stop it. We're not fools. I don't believe that you're betting on luck with me!" Cui Ying rolled her eyes.
"I'm really betting on my luck! Aren't you betting on luck with me? Are you sure you can win? "Gu Zheng pretended to be surprised.
"How can I be sure of winning? I'm also betting on luck. But since you dared to bet with me, I thought you had a great chance of winning!" Cui Ying quickly denied and then said, "Let's start. There are two of my resources in the box."
Gu Zheng dared to bet with Cui Ying. Naturally, he had his confidence. Not to mention putting the resources in the box, even if the resources were buried underground, they would not be able to escape the detection of the Tool Spirit.
"Looks like she's not really that rich. The boxes on both sides contain special grade resources. The one on the left is a 'Celestial Stone' that can be used to refine weapons, while the one on the right is a 'Blood Burning Vine' that can be used to refine pills. Comparing the two types of resources, the 'Blood Burning Vine' is naturally more attractive to Luo Jin. After all, there aren't any decent weapon refining masters in your world." The artifact spirit's voice sounded in Gu Zheng's mind.
"The resources are good, but if it's just these two resources, then the winner of this bet would be me." Gu Zheng laughed in his heart.
"I also agree with your point of view. She should be able to see what's in the box, which is why she dared to make such a bet with you. Although it doesn't matter if she sees the resources you prepared, since she bullied you like this, I think it's good to let her suffer. "The Tool Spirit smirked.
"Oh? What do you want to do? "Gu Zheng asked.
"As long as I use a little trick, I guarantee that she won't be able to see what's in the box! She thought she could see it, but she couldn't. Don't you think she'll suffer? Won't she be very depressed? "
"This is good. Let's do it!"
The Tool Spirit and Gu Zheng smirked at each other. Cui Ying also urged, "You can choose the box, but what about your resources?"
"These are my resources."
Gu Zheng smiled faintly and took out the two boxes containing resources from his backpack. Cui Ying's expression suddenly changed.
"Why haven't you chosen yet?"
Gu Zheng had already chosen the box containing the Celestial Stone, but he still pretended to be ignorant and urged Cui Ying.
"What's the material of your box?"
Cui Ying finally chose a box. There was a trace of unwillingness in her voice.
"The wood of this box is a good material for refining weapons. It's already extinct in the world today. I'm using it to store resources because I'm worried that you might be able to see what's in the box. Wouldn't I be at a disadvantage?" Gu Zheng's voice paused, and then he looked surprised, "What's wrong? Could it be that you can really see what's inside the box? "
"How is that possible? Of course I don't know what's in the box. Didn't you see that I was hesitating when I chose?" Cui Ying denied.
"Okay, since we've both chosen, you can let the disciples of the Heavenly Spiral Sect in."
Gu Zheng put the resources prepared by the two of them in a place, and then called the disciples of the Heavenly Spiral Sect in.
Although Gu Zheng was behind the barrier, the Weapon Spirit had been paying attention to what was happening outside the barrier. The people of the Kunlun Sect did not do anything to the disciples of the Heavenly Spiral Sect and Luo Jin.
After the disciples of the Heavenly Spiral Sect came in, they took the two boxes out and handed them to Luo Jin. During this process, Gu Zheng and the people of the Kunlun Sect were very obedient and did not say a word.
The box that Luo Jin opened first was Cui Ying's. When they saw what was inside, the people around them could not help but click their tongues.
"It's actually a Celestial Stone. This is a very good material for refining weapons!"
"This box contains a special grade material. I wonder what will be in the next box?"
"No matter what it is, Luo Jin's first-grade material can be exchanged for one of them. It's a big deal."
The onlookers expressed their opinions. Luo Jin looked at the Celestial Stone and smiled from ear to ear. Although the Celestial Stone was of no use to him, he could still resell it. The resources that could be exchanged for would still not be a small amount.
In the anticipation of the audience, Luo Jin opened the second box. There was an elixir in the box, exuding an elegant medicinal fragrance.
"Hey, it's an elixir!"
"What kind of elixir is this? It doesn't look like a common elixir. I can't tell what it is from the fragrance. "
"No wonder Sect Leader Gu said that before. He really did take out something rare."
The onlookers were talking about it. Luo Jin also looked at Gu Zheng in confusion. "Sect Leader Gu, forgive me for being blind, but what kind of elixir is this?"
By now, Luo Jin had already known Gu Zheng's true identity. His attitude towards Gu Zheng had also changed because of this. No matter what, Gu Zheng was still a sect leader. Moreover, he was so young. His future achievements were not to be underestimated.
"Luo Jin, this elixir is called the Purity Elixir. You may not have heard of it, but its effect is what you need the most!"
The reason why Gu Zheng chose Luo Jin was because there was a deeper meaning behind it! Luo Jin's inner strength could be transformed, but his inner strength had not been purified. A Purity Elixir that could improve one's inner strength would definitely be extremely attractive to him.
"What I need the most?" Luo Jin looked a little confused.
"This Purity Elixir has the same effect as the Inner Strength Essence Elixir."
Gu Zheng's indifferent voice fell, and the crowd gasped.
"What? It has the same effect as the Inner Strength Essence Elixir? "
"Doesn't this mean that it can purify inner strength?"
"Are you serious? I've never heard of this elixir called the Purity Elixir. The only elixir that can purify inner strength is the Inner Strength Essence Elixir! "
"To take out such an elixir on such an occasion, it shouldn't be fake. If what Sect Leader Gu said is true, then this elixir, even I will be tempted when I see it!"
"Not to mention you, who here wouldn't be tempted when they see it?"
The elixir that could purify inner strength was very precious. Otherwise, Tian Junhao of the Spirit Sword Sect would not have wanted to bet with Gu Zheng for a place in the Shu Ruins with an Inner Strength Essence Elixir on the Hidden Sword Peak of Shu Mountain.
"We've never heard of the so-called Purity Elixir. Whether it's true or not has yet to be verified." Cui Ying, whose face was not very good, said.
"Luo Jin, are you interested in this elixir?" Cui Ying looked at Luo Jin solemnly.
"Fellow Daoist Cui, isn't it a bit inappropriate for you to ask this? Regardless of whether Fellow Daoist Luo is interested in this elixir or not, we have to find someone to verify it and see if it really has the same effect as the Inner Strength Essence Elixir. "
From Cui Ying's eyes, Gu Zheng could see a trace of threatening Luo Jin.
"Sect Leader Gu, did you remember the rules wrongly? What I said before is that the choice of the stall owner is the standard to judge whether we win or lose. Even if this elixir has a great effect, if he likes my Celestial Stone, then the one who loses is still you! "Cui Ying said in a threatening manner.
"Okay!" Gu Zheng shrugged and smiled. "Fellow Daoist Luo, it's up to you to choose."
Luo Jin looked at the Celestial Stone and then looked at the Purity Elixir. Then, he held the Purity Elixir's box tighter.
"Fellow Daoist Gu, if your Purity Elixir is true, I will choose your elixir. Let's find an alchemist to verify it!"
Luo Jin naturally saw the threat in Cui Ying's eyes, but he had already decided to fight. If the Purity Elixir was true, he would not hesitate to offend the Kunlun Sect! After all, it was too difficult to purify one's inner strength by oneself.
Luo Jin's inner strength was already able to complete complex transformations. When he fought with Gu Zheng, Gu Zheng also said that although his transformations were powerful, the speed was too slow. This was directly related to the fact that his inner strength was not purified.
Luo Jin believed that if his inner strength was purified, with his ability to transform, his strength would definitely rise to another level. As for the Celestial Stone, although it was somewhat attractive, compared to the elixir that could purify one's inner strength, it was just trash!
"There's no need to find an alchemist to verify it. You can take it now. It won't take long for your inner strength to circulate 36 cycles. When the time comes, if your inner strength is purified, it will naturally prove the efficacy of the elixir. If my Purity Elixir does not have the effect of purifying inner strength, I don't need you to pay any price. " Gu Zheng paused and turned to look at Cui Ying, "Fellow Cultivator Cui, what I said is reasonable. You won't refuse, right?"
Cui Ying originally wanted to refuse. She was really afraid of losing, but she really couldn't find a reason to refute Gu Zheng at the moment.
"No, we don't have time to wait for Fellow Cultivator Luo to circulate his inner strength for 36 cycles. We have important things to deal with when we go back! You can take the elixir with us to see an alchemist and ask him to verify it. It will only take a very short time. When the time comes, the winner will be known in an instant, and we can all go do other things. "Seeing that Cui Ying didn't speak, Song Bai immediately said.
"You don't even have the time to circulate your inner strength for 36 cycles. Why do you still want to bet with me? Are you afraid that Cui Ying will lose? Don't worry, Song Bai, you can't afford to lose, but I think Fellow Cultivator Cui must be the kind of person who accepts defeat! "Gu Zheng laughed contemptuously.
"Don't talk nonsense. Who told you that I'm a person who can't afford to lose? I'm just really … "
"Well, let Fellow Cultivator Luo verify it. As for that important thing, it's not a big deal to do it later."
Zu Qingbo, who had been watching quietly, finally spoke. Song Bai opened his mouth twice, but in the end, he said, "Since the important thing can be delayed, let's let Fellow Cultivator Luo verify it!"
"Whether it's the 'Internal Strength Essence Elixir' or the 'Purity Elixir', someone needs to assist the person who takes the elixir to soothe the internal strength in his body. Since the elixir is given by me, I should take responsibility for it. Do you have any objections? "Gu Zheng looked at Cui Ying's people.
"No objections. You can start now!"
Zu Qingbo's expression was still calm, as if he didn't care about winning or losing.
"I'll show you what I can do first to prove that my internal strength has not been purified."
As Luo Jin spoke, he hit the void with his palm, and immediately, his internal strength transformed into a tiger head and flew out.
Seeing that the people of the Kunlun Sect all nodded, Gu Zheng also said, "Fellow Cultivator Luo, you can take the elixir now!"
"Okay," Luo Jin answered excitedly.
Gu Zheng came behind Luo Jin, and Luo Jin immediately sat down cross-legged and swallowed the blood-red 'Purity Elixir'.
Luo Jin hugged his Dantian, welcoming the purification of his internal strength brought by the elixir.
Gu Zheng sat behind Luo Jin and put his palms on his back, transferring his internal strength into his body to help him absorb the elixir better and soothe his internal strength that was beginning to change.
This time, Gu Zheng transferred his immortal power into someone else's body. It was different from when he treated Yang Lanbo in the crypt of the Ruins of Shu. Yang Lanbo's injury could not be treated without full immortal power. With the surging immortal power, even the Weapon Spirit could not help disguise it if it ran in someone else's body for too long. Therefore, when Yang Lanbo was rescued, he knew that Gu Zheng was actually an immortal cultivator.
This time, the immortal power used to soothe Luo Jin's internal strength was not surging, which was completely within the scope of the Weapon Spirit's disguise.
