1024: Chapter 0972: The Tree of Knowing Good and Evil Acquired!
An endless rage almost destroyed the reason of the Demon Emperor on the throne in an instant!
When had the five of them ever been threatened like this?
But the strength of this guy was clearly laid out right there.
He had already fought consecutively against three great Demon Emperors, and yet he still possessed such terrifying soul might.
Thinking about how even the superior Demon Emperor Li Tian “fell” within a short ti at the hands of this person, this fact also allowed the five to retain their last bit of reason.
The fact that the opponent had entered their with space ring without any fear made Emperor Li Hen, Demon Emperor Yu Hai, Deadwood, Zi Zhu, and Demon Emperor Ran Qing even more apprehensive.
However, if Lv Zhong really made a generous offer, they might not be unwilling to sell the [Tree of Knowing Good and Evil].
If the price was right, who wouldn’t they sell to?
“Senior, how much are you willing to pay for that [Tree of Knowing Good and Evil]?”
Emperor Li Hen, among the five, pushed down the anger in his heart and asked cautiously.
Since the other party had assertively ntioned the [Tree of Knowing Good and Evil] being in their possession, there was no need to hide or choke back any information.
It was better to straightforwardly inquire about the price.
“Hehe…” Lv Zhong chuckled lightly, not giving a direct offer, but counter-asking, “So, what is the highest price you five are expecting?
Tell , give a satisfying number.”
Imdiately, Emperor Li Hen consulted with the other four Demon Emperors.
In the end, it was the Demon Emperor Ran Qing who ca out to communicate with Lv Zhong.
Demon Emperors Yu Hai, Zi Zhu, and Ran Qing were all female.
Demon Emperor Yu Hai always went starry-eyed upon seeing handso n, and Zi Zhu was cold-natured and not good with words, so it was best to leave the negotiation with Lv Zhong to the Demon Emperor Ran Qing.
These three Demon Emperors were exceptionally demon maidens, with peerless appearance and seductive figures.
They were barely less stunning than Mu Cangqiong, who was beside Lv Zhong.
Indeed, in terms of alluring figures and charm, they even surpassed Mu Cangqiong.
As for Ao Ye, Zheng Linglong, Leng i, Xu Xinyan, Yan Yan, Yun Shuiyao and the other ladies, while their appearances perhaps fell short by a hair’s breadth, they greatly lacked the deanor of the three female Demon Emperors, who had perfected their eminent qualities over ample ti.
Demon Emperor Ran Qing’s extrely beautiful face showed a hint of a smile as she said, “Elder Lv, the [Tree of Knowing Good and Evil] is an innate spirit root.
Although this particular one is far from comparable to that of the creator god of the [Devil God Domain], with sufficient energy, it naturally can evolve into an existence that is no less than that [Tree of Knowing Good and Evil].
Producing a large number of forbidden fruits of the [Tree of Knowing Good and Evil].
Once consud, it can allow oneself to perceive levels beyond one’s own…”
“Demon Emperor Ran Qing, you don’t need to waste words explaining to the origin and the function of the [Tree of Knowing Good and Evil], just tell your highest price…” Lv Zhong waved his hand to directly interrupt the Demon Emperor Ran Qing’s explanation.
He already knew all these things.
Demon Emperor Ran Qing’s smile on her face suddenly froze but then relaxed again, and after a mont of silence and a quiet voice transmission exchange with Li Hen, Deadwood, Yu Hai, and Zi Zhu, she extended her jade hand and decisively said, “Fifty million!
Fifty million top-grade immortal stones, and we can sell you this [Tree of Knowing Good and Evil]—”
Fifty million top-grade immortal stones equates to five billion high-quality immortal stones, fifty billion middle-grade immortal stones, and five trillion low-grade immortal stones.
Such a price for an immature innate spirit root was already outrageously high.
Even if the Queen Mother of the Earth Immortal World were to sell a sapling from the Yaochi Peach Grove, the price would top out at eight million top-grade immortal stones at most.
It really was no wonder they were Demon Emperors, able to kill without blinking and equally adept at being shrewd rchants, not changing color while fleecing their custors.
To think, Lv Zhong had purchased millions of dicinal herbs from the Ten Complete dical Pavilion, and he had only spent just under seventy million top-grade immortal stones in total.
By offering this price, the Demon Emperor Ran Qing indeed had several considerations.
The five Great Demon Emperors really didn’t want to sell the [Tree of Knowing Good and Evil] spirit root before the auction even started.
They wished to stoke interest in the [Tree of Knowing Good and Evil] during the century’s premier auction to gain even more.
By listing such a high price, firstly, they intended to reject Lv Zhong, because after learning of Lv Zhong’s true identity, the five Great Demon Emperors believed that Lv Zhong, having only ascended to the Immortal Realm not long ago, couldn’t possibly afford such a steep sum.
They wanted to deter Lv Zhong without offending him.
After all, they had made an offer, and if he couldn’t afford it, they couldn’t be blad.
Secondly, if Lv Zhong truly could pay the fifty million top-grade immortal stones, they thought they wouldn’t suffer any loss.
After all, this price was the limit for an unripe innate spirit root.
“Fifty million top-grade immortal stones?
Uh, although the price is a bit inflated, I can accept it!” Lv Zhong put on an air of wealth, agreeing nonchalantly, “It’s a deal then.
I’ll give you fifty million top-grade immortal stones for that [Tree of Knowing Good and Evil].”
Having sold four bottles of [Heavenly Light Holy Water] to Nalan Wuxian and with eight more bottles to auction, Lv Zhong felt no pressure at all in the face of fifty million top-grade immortal stones.
Having said that, with a thought, Lv Zhong carelessly tossed a space ring filled with fifty million top-grade immortal stones to the Demon Emperor Ran Qing, saying, “Check it.
If everything is correct, hand over the [Tree of Knowing Good and Evil] to …”
What?
Demon Emperor Ran Qing, Li Hen, Deadwood, Zi Zhu, and Yu Hai, all five Demon Emperors gaped, their faces filled with disbelief.
Wasn’t it said that this brat had only ascended not long ago?
How could he possess such an imnse fortune?
Without any pressure, he just casually took out fifty million top-grade immortal stones?
Keep in mind, these are top-grade immortal stones, not fifty million low-grade immortal stones!
For a mont, the five Great Demon Emperors were utterly dumbfounded.
Ran Qing Demon Emperor blankly expanded his Demon Sense, infiltrating the masterless Space Ring and making an inventory check.
After confirming, however, he eagerly looked to the elder of the five — Emperor Li Hen, seemingly at a loss.
Lv Zhong’s resolute act of “throwing immortal stones” had unsettled even the well-tested Ran Qing Demon Emperor.
“A true…
true tycoon.
Not only is he unimaginably powerful, but…
but also all kinds of cool, amazing…
wow, I so want to love…
love him…
To love until the end of ti, until the sun and moon lost their light, would absolutely be bliss…” Yu Hai Demon Emperor was completely entranced, her dewy peach blossom eyes brimming with the promise of spring in an instant.
Even her whole body went limp, and then a mysteriously alluring fragrance suddenly filled the nearby space with an indescribable hint of intimacy.
Indeed worthy of being Yu Hai Demon Emperor.
“Hopeless romantic—” Zi Zhu Demon Emperor’s mouth twitched, hastily keeping a distance from Yu Hai Demon Emperor.
At this mont, the strange aura exuded by Yu Hai Demon Emperor even made the typically cold Zi Zhu blush and her heart race.
Such a powerful force of desire!
Lv Zhong too was shaken, his mind quivering internally.
The Yu Hai Demon Emperor opposite him nearly stirred the most primal lust in his heart just monts ago.
Indeed, none of these Demon Emperors were simple!
It was very likely deliberate!
Fortunately, the Soul rit Golden Body in Lv Zhong’s Sea of Consciousness had significant resistance against others’ magical fluctuations, which enabled Lv Zhong to retain his composure with an indifferent deanor.
And the fact that Lv Zhong faced Yu Hai Demon Emperor’s Lust Demon Power with such a breezy attitude had also been beyond the expectations of the five great Demon Emperors.
After learning of Lv Zhong’s identity, the five had already obtained information about him and knew that Lv Zhong was certainly not a cultivator of the “Forgetful Desire Path,” since he had several immortal companions.
Yet, could it be that such a cultivator of the “Path of Emotions,” and moreover a fellow who had only recently ascended to the Immortal Realm, could easily face the Lust Demon Power of Yu Hai Demon Emperor?
It was common knowledge that ordinary Middle Emperor Level powerhouses would not fare better than Lv Zhong when confronted with Yu Hai Demon Emperor.
“Freak!”
Emperors Li Hen, Deadwood, Zi Zhu, and Ran Qing quietly muttered in their hearts.
Seeing her covert attack prove ineffective, Yu Hai Demon Emperor’s beautiful eyes hardened as she retracted her special attack technique.
Lv Zhong had long understood that the other party was probing him, so he did not react with anger.
“Since Elder Lv could take out 50 million top-grade immortal stones, we cannot be untrustworthy…” Emperor Li Hen gave a wry smile, glanced at his four companions, clenched his teeth, and said, “Elder Lv, the Tree of Knowing Good and Evil is within a top-notch big formation in my With Space.
I will retrieve it for you…”
“Good!” Lv Zhong readily nodded in agreent.
As for the possibility of the other party playing tricks, taking his 50 million top-grade immortal stones but not giving him the Tree of Knowing Good and Evil, Lv Zhong was unconcerned.
At this mont, Lv Zhong was highly focused on the connection with the Great Annihilation Pearl.
If Emperor Li Hen intended to escape with the Tree of Knowing Good and Evil, he would let him know that Lv Zhong was not soone to be trifled with!
Fortunately!
Though Emperor Li Hen was a Demon Emperor, he had not allowed greed to cloud his reason.
Less than half a minute later, he appeared before Lv Zhong and the others, holding a plant shimring with golden light.
This plant, less than two ters tall, radiated the distinct aura of Innate Spirit Roots.
Lv Zhong also possessed several Innate Spirit Roots and was very familiar with their unique aura.
Moreover, since the fall of Devil God World’s Emperors Okasi and Ye Shenxing at his hands — though their souls were devoured by the Soul-Devouring Worms — so mories related to the Devil God World in their souls were selectively absorbed by Lv Zhong through the Transfer Technique.
Using the mories of these two Devil God World Emperor Level powerhouses, Lv Zhong confird that the Innate Spirit Root before him was indeed the Tree of Knowing Good and Evil.
The only thing was, this Tree of Knowing Good and Evil seed to be a juvenile tree, not yet at maturity.
Otherwise, not to ntion 50 million top-grade immortal stones, even 500 million top-grade immortal stones might not be able to purchase a mature Tree of Knowing Good and Evil.
Lv Zhong’s trip to Yin ng Star was precisely to find the five great Demon Emperors such as Li Hen and Deadwood to acquire this Tree of Knowing Good and Evil.
Now that he had finally seen this Innate Spirit Root, Lv Zhong was quite pleased.
Although it was just an immature Innate Spirit Root, possessing treasures such as [Heavenly Light Holy Water] and Xuanqing Divine Stone ant that it would not take long for the Tree of Knowing Good and Evil to mature.
When the ti ca, utilizing the ability of Ti Acceleration, Lv Zhong and his won could all enjoy the fruits produced by this Innate Spirit Root, consolidating the supre [Heart Technique].
Without hesitation, Lv Zhong received the sapling of the Tree of Knowing Good and Evil into the Great Annihilation Pearl, then turned to look at Emperor Li Hen and suddenly asked, “By the way, the information I received seed to indicate that besides this Tree of Knowing Good and Evil, you also possess several hundred top-grade dicinal herbs.
May I have a look?” (To be continued.
