Chapter 1 The Black Market

Amidst the shifting scenery, Zhang Yuanqing arrived at the black market. The stalls, which once resembled a vegetable market, had been replaced by a proper auction house, with a foldable, retractable metal base serving as the auction stage.

The metal platform, over three meters high, was covered in a red carpet and hung with a banner that read, "Ten Thousand Treasures Auction."

Below were dozens of high-backed chairs, each with a simple tea table holding spirit realm-produced fruits and tea. However, the auction hall was empty, with no guests seated.

The auction was still twenty minutes away, and all the guests were gathered in the octagonal cage to the south, watching the arena battle.

Inside the giant octagonal cage, twenty meters in diameter, two transcendents were engaged in a fierce fight: a Gu witch and a wood demon.

Cheers and applause filled the air.

Generally, Saints rarely fought to the death in the arena, unless they had mortal enemies or the prize money was too tempting. Most of the time, it was transcendents, often rogue cultivators, who entered the ring.

The Gu witch, who had transformed his body with Gu, was clearly stronger, suppressing the wood demon throughout the fight. However, because the wood demon was agile, strong, and immune to poison, he had not been killed by the Gu witch and was struggling to hold on.

After watching for a few moments, Zhang Yuanqing knew that it was only a matter of time before the wood demon was defeated.

Evil professions were inherently stronger than those of the righteous path, and in such a narrow, simple terrain, the wood demon was no match for the Gu witch in hand-to-hand combat.

"He'll probably put it in his inventory first and check the item's attributes before completing the recognition ritual. He definitely doesn't want to turn into an ice sculpture on the spot. It's not like you'd tell him."

Lian Bayue smiled and said, "Does he think he deserves to ask?"

The bidders wore loose white robes and masks, making it impossible to determine their professions based on their temperament or build. But as a "Void Owner," Kou Beiyue had no way to find the illusionist in the crowd.

The owner of the fanged mask was the first to leave the stage. Lian Bayue lit a cigarette, handed the white box to her subordinate, and smiled through the rising smoke:

And the Dream Weaver I fished out at the auction, Kou Beiyue determined through dream observation, activity area analysis, and comparison with official databases, was a subordinate of the Fourth Elder of the Nan faction.

Therefore, the ideas that arise, as long as there is a concrete implementation, it is considered the future, it will be observed.

The essence of Star Gazing is to predict small trends in the sky, to predict the future direction, that is the long river of fate of all things.

"The seven puppets are connected to each other, sharing data with each other. The flying and reconnaissance puppets can be used as positioning and enemy-locking devices for the archer puppets. The swordsman puppet can also be combined with the heavily armored puppet, at the cost of sacrificing mobility and flexibility. The advantage is that after the energy is exhausted, among the Lingjing Xingzhe in the extraordinary stage, there are only a few who can defeat it." Lian Bayue talked eloquently:

Even for a demigod, the CPU would explode.

Jojo Mens used the dog elder's help (official channels) to locate two illusionists and the position of a Dream Weaver.

Gave up? The illusionist wearing the ogre mask was ecstatic, then felt that something was wrong.

The Lingjing Xingzhe who paid for their seats entered in an orderly fashion. Kou Beiyue looked at the remaining chain on his hand card, with A9 engraved below.

At most, Ling Tuo can't see it, because Ling Tuo is the master of Taiyin, not the master of stars.

Almost there, if there are no illusionists among these seven people, I will choose a target from the illusionists on the scene... Wen Zhuren closed his eyes and sensed the emotions of the seven bidders.

"Two dominator-level materials, forty million."

In terms of financial resources, the evil camp can never defeat the official government. I'll give him a hand... Kou Beiyue spread his spiritual power and began to manipulate the emotions of the eight bidders, magnifying their desire to give up.

In this state, the Night Wanderer skill has a hidden effect, and all thoughts and plans will not appear in the long river of fate.

At this time, a melodious and loud bell echoed, and the auction began.

Damn, that's eighty million. For extraordinary-level mechanical weapons, I remember selling them to the Seven Lines Alliance for no more than ten million. Large-scale sales even have discounts... Wen Zhuren felt a pang of heartache that made it difficult to breathe.

Kou Beiyue sat at his desk, summarizing the information collected from all parties.

After the mechanical weapons, came the Life Source Liquid provided by the Zhisha Palace. As a resource monopolized by the government, the popularity of the Life Source Liquid was no less than that of the mechanical weapons.

Although I could also use cheating methods to influence my opponents' emotions and make them give up voluntarily, I can only influence one person at most, and I cannot manipulate the emotions of eight Saints at the same time.

But it doesn't matter, the plan to hunt down the Nan faction's high-level members is still in the idea stage, and has not been concretely implemented, and even the target has not been found.

"Ladies and gentlemen, friends, next up is the final auction item, which is also the goal of some friends attending this auction."

"Forty million once, forty million twice, forty million three times..." Lian Bayue slammed the hammer, "Sold."

The Gu witch withdrew his tail刺, not looking at the opponent's powerless falling body, and raised his fist to the audience on all sides.

......

Not enough money, angry? Kou Beiyue muttered in his heart.

Beneath the masks, pairs of eyes glittered with greed and desire. Dominator-level items were absolutely not for sale even within official organizations and would always be internally consumed.

The black market staff opened the iron cage and presented the prize, which was placed on a tray and covered with a red cloth.

The flying puppet and the reconnaissance puppet were actually a whole set. It was a bird with a wingspan of two meters, and the archer puppet was a humanoid archer.

The moment this thought flashed through his mind, it was replaced by emotions such as rejoicing and arrogance. He instinctively felt that he was lucky and it should be so.

"Target missions: Eighth Elder, Fourth Elder.

Wen Zhu designed to frame and kill Wu Hen Dashi and led to the destruction of Wu Hen Hotel. Wen Zhuren, Da Yuan, and Ling Tuo produced cause and effect, and Ling Tuo can see the future of the two to a certain extent.

"The Fourth Elder will be dealt with by the clone, the palace lord, and the Demon Eye and Da Yuan. Besides you, these eight people and Ling Tuo have cause and effect. Our actions may be observed by Ling Tuo. It's good to be observed, so Ling Tuo will patiently lay out the Fourth Elder's side, and then let Uncle and Marshal stare at it to ensure the safety of the eight people."

After taking his seat, he saw Lian Bayue, wearing a white leather jacket, leather pants, and a white bandeau, stepping onto the auction stage with powerful strides in leather military boots.

As soon as she finished speaking, the sound of raising signs rang out in the arena, and the shouts of bidding rose and fell.

This is my bottom line, if the other seven continue to follow, I will choose to give up and plead guilty to the elder.

Soon, Kou Beiyue found through perception that there was an illusionist among the seven, wearing a blue-faced fanged ghost mask and wrapped in a wide white robe.

"Starting price, any two dominator-level materials, and each increase in price must not be less than seven million."

"Thank you for your support, the Ten Thousand Treasures Auction is now open. The first auction item is the mechanical legion, composed of a swordsman puppet, a heavy armored puppet, a flying puppet, a reconnaissance puppet, and an archer puppet, integrating melee, ranged attack, defense, and reconnaissance. The strength of each puppet corresponds to level 3." Lian Bayue opened the item bar and summoned seven mechanical puppets.

The auction bids came wave after wave, and the seventy tubes of diluted Life Source Liquid were quickly sold out.

It's very simple, just sense the emotions of everyone present, the most stable emotion, the strongest spiritual power, is not an illusionist or a scout.

"The Eighth Elder is a level four Void Owner, and the Fourth Elder is level one. According to the habits of the high-level members of the Nan faction, they are mostly hidden in the dream space they weave. When our side's combat power is sufficient, we don't need to spend months or even years to slowly plan. As long as we enter the dream space and expel them from the dream, we can launch an encirclement and suppression.

Finally, after auctioning a batch of materials, Lian Bayue said loudly:

From the emotional feedback of the eight bidding opponents, they should not give up.

I opened the item bar and took out the Natal Spirit Moon and put it on my forehead. In an instant, vine-like patterns covered my whole body, and I became a Night Wanderer who mainly cultivated Taiyin.

Lian Bayue put the bead into the box, placed it on the table, and said loudly:

Sure enough, after struggling for a quarter of an hour, the wood demon was knocked against the iron cage by the Gu witch. Before he could land, the flexible and thick tail 刺 pierced his chest and injected venom.

ps: Wrong words will be corrected after updating.

But as long as Kou Beiyue starts making plans, Ling Tuo will definitely be able to observe it.

"Thief of Fire Orb, Fire Master profession, dominator-level item, quality appraisal: high-grade."

The bidding sounds rose and fell, and after a round of fighting, only seven people were still in a stalemate.

Lian Bayue, on the auction stage, smiled and said, "Friends who didn't get the mechanical weapons, don't worry, we still have a lot of high-quality mechanical weapons..."

Lian Bayue waved his hand, and the blue-faced fanged illusionist disappeared into the black market.

Wen Zhu had already anticipated this, and also had a response plan.

Illusionists have strong resilience and immunity when facing mental manipulation, while scouts' spiritual power is like a stubborn stone, and the "feel" is different.

Next second, I came to a large store and glanced at the materials and props on the shelves. I suppressed my greedy emotions, and deep vortexes appeared in the depths of my eyes.

Only Fire Masters can defeat Gu witches in the Octagon, relying on violent flames to burn Gu poison and Gu insects, exchanging injuries for injuries, and exchanging lives for lives.

The same reasoning applies, the cause and effect between Yuanshi Tianzun and Ling Tuo is also very heavy, Ling Tuo can also observe what I do.

Only the scholar family sells a few dominator props every year, but they are basically acquired by official organizations and will not flow into the outer world.

The eighth round of auction is now open, the Mechanical Technology Company provided eighty mechanical puppets, the highest level reached level 4.

As for how to distinguish between illusionists and scouts, I just need to try to influence the other party's emotions, and I can judge through feedback.

But when I thought of the moral value disappearing, the reason why the Lingjing Xingzhe in Songhai area could quickly kill and defeat the evil profession, the mechanical weapons accounted for half of the credit, Wen Zhuren was relieved.

The illusionist gave a hey sound, no longer asked more, and said: "Send me away."

The blue-faced fanged illusionist honestly put away the box, then took it out, opened the box lid to check the item attributes of the orb, and after confirming that it was a dominator-level prop, I laughed softly:

I watched the seven people's bidding without moving. After eight consecutive rounds of bidding, the illusionist's spirit showed a slight fluctuation: irritability, anger, killing intent.

Under the eager anticipation of many bidders, she took out the bead that was窜动 with ice-blue flames and said:

The swordsman puppet is a humanoid puppet, constructed of steel and wood, holding a sharp alloy sword, and the heavy armored puppet is a small shield half a person high with wheels at the bottom.

If it is a scout, the body technique can win against the Gu witch, but first it will be eroded by Gu poison, and it will still die.

Otherwise, after the emotion influence starts, the other party will immediately realize that something is wrong. At that time, the best ending is to be expelled from the black market by the owner of the Ten Thousand Treasures House.

First day, outside grandma's house, in the bedroom.

A few scattered dreams emerged in the field of vision, and I plunged into a bizarre dream and disappeared into the Ten Thousand Treasures House.

After entering the night tour, Kou Beiyue picked up banknotes and wrote a plan.

So the people Zhang Yuanqing is staring at, to be safe, it is best not to use them, or use them to confuse the other party.

This chapter is not finished, please click on the next page to continue reading!

In several rounds of bidding, the legion puppet was auctioned to a high price of 80 million, and finally bought by a guy wearing a monkey mask with crazy eyes.

Dominator-level props, even if they are high-level, are also dominator-level props.

The auction begins.

The best ending is to kill on the spot.

"Only I can do the thing of expelling the dream, I can use the four-咫 mirror to create a clone...The Eighth Elder will be dealt with by you, Jojo mens, Deng Jingguo and Jishe Shezhu."

The thought turned, I suddenly realized that the competitor had not been raising the price, and looked around blankly, and found that the eight competitors had placed their cards on the table.

......

Almost even the low-level Lingjing Xingzhe felt that a great chaos was coming. Once the order collapsed, the banknotes of human society would become waste paper.

Eighth round of auction begins, the illusionist controls the inner irritability very well, the last time to raise the sign:

Otherwise, there are billions of creatures in the world, how can it be possible to see through every creature.

And in "micro-operation", Star Gazing can see the fate of a specific person, but there is a limit, that is, the Star Gazer must have a very deep causal entanglement with the target.

"Now whether it is the official or the free camp, they are trying their best to spend money and exchange it for props, materials, consumables and all resources, but you are just the opposite, can you ask why."

Then, turn on the night tour skill and enter the invisible.

The Demon Eye Heavenly King captured a Dream Weaver, said to be a subordinate of the Eighth Elder of the Nan faction.

Zhang Yuanqing locked down an illusionist from the Nan faction through the channels and connections of Human Blood Mantou. The illusionist is active in a prefecture-level city in Jiangnan Province.

The two locked down the district where the illusionist lived, and were worried about alerting the enemy, so they dared to determine the house number further.

In this case, the future shown by the Long River of Fate is blurred and unclear, even demigods cannot see clearly, because human thoughts are constantly arising.

But the two thoughts may not be put into action, so Kou Beiyue's behavior of being Lao Wang will not appear in the future.

For example, Kou Beiyue saw that the little widow downstairs was very可啪 in the morning, and she looked very润, at this time, I had the thought of亵渎 in my heart. At noon, I saw that the aunt downstairs was still charming and looked very hungry and easy to get started. My heart still produced the thought of亵渎.

Taking advantage of the fact that banknotes still have purchasing power, exchanging them into resources as soon as possible is a choice that rational people will make.

The bidders received the auctioned items in an orderly manner under the host of Lian Bayue.

——The leftmost seat in the last row.

"Zhang Yuanqing is a member of the Wu Hen Hotel, and has cause and effect with Ling Tuo. The illusionist he is staring at can give up..."

"This set of mechanical legions, starting price of 20 million, and each increase in price must not be less than 700,000."

I sensed the other eight bidders again, and two of them also showed slight relief, meaning that their financial resources were running out, but they could still hold on for a few rounds. The last one was full of confidence and stable emotions.
