Chapter 214 Deterrence, Martial King Level! (Two in One)
Lin Chen hung up the communication and used the earth escape technique to sneak into the ground.
After a while, Lin Chen's appearance changed drastically and he went to Hu's house.
…
"You want to purchase a large amount of deer meat?"
The head of the Hu family asked in a deep voice. His eyes still had a fierce look, and his face was covered with beards. He looked quite imposing.
"It's me." Lin Chen said calmly.
"How much venison do you want?" the head of the Hu family asked with a wary look on his face.
The situation in Hu Guang Town is not good now. Thousands of monks in the entire town are in danger.
Many shops are closed and ready to go.
But it is not that easy for the Hu family and the Guang family to leave.
The reason is simple. They breed Hulu, which are spiritual animals.
Spirit beasts cannot be put in storage bags, as it would be too difficult to take them away.
Lin Chen thought for a while and asked:
"How many do you have?"
After hearing this, the head of the Hu family laughed and said, "I'll have as much as you want."
How many do you want?
This time, it was Lin Chen who smiled.
"One hundred thousand bearded deer, do you have them?"
After hearing this, the head of the Hu family changed his expression and said coldly:
"Are you kidding me? One hundred thousand bearded deer... do you know how many spiritual stones are needed?"
Lin Chen pondered for a moment and then said:
"The situation of your Hu family and Guang family is not good now."
"I've already inquired about it, and most of your assets are the deer deer raised in the mountains to the west."
"But Hu Lu is different from other resources. You can't take it away...at least you can't take it away before the magic cultivators occupy Guangyuan Town."
"As long as you want to run away, you must take a large number of shots in a short period of time..."
After a pause, Lin Chen said:
"Before this, the market price of an adult Hu Lu was 600 Spirit Stones, and a young Hu Lu under three years old was 300 Spirit Stones."
"But the price is too high!"
"An adult Hu Lu costs 300 Spirit Stones, and a young Hu Lu costs 150 Spirit Stones. This is the price I can give."
"Based on this price, I want as much as you have."
After hearing this, the head of the Hu family frowned even more tightly and looked at each other with the head of the Guang family on the side.
They originally thought the person in front of them was just joking.
But now that I saw it, I saw that he was very serious.
Even their situation is clearly understood...
The price quoted by Lin Chen was just below their expected price.
It allowed them to make a little profit, but the profit was too little.
If they hadn't had to sell a large number of Hulu in a short period of time, they would have just turned around and left after hearing this price.
At this time, the head of the Guang family asked:
"Fellow Taoist, you want so many Hulu... how should you take them away? These Hulu cannot be put into the storage artifact."
Lin Chen smiled after hearing this and said:
"Simple, just kill it and make it into jerky."
After hearing this, the head of the Hu family frowned even more tightly.
The two of them were raising venison at the same time. They were originally in a competitive relationship, but under this situation they had to join forces.
Although the two companies combined do not have 100,000 deer meat, there are still more than 80,000.
Among them, there are 50,000 adult deer and more than 30,000 young deer...
If these 80,000 bald deer were to be slaughtered and pickled, it would be a huge project!
It will take at least one month.
The most important thing is that venison is best slaughtered immediately.
After the meat is made into dried meat, the taste will be greatly reduced and the value will be reduced by half.
Otherwise, they would have killed the deer themselves, made it into dried meat, and taken it away.
What's more, it was just the first time for them to meet the person in front of them.
What if the man regrets it after they kill the deer?
Even if there are only more than 80,000 heads of meat, that is a business of close to 20 million spiritual stones.
If the contract is broken, the Hu and Guang family will be completely bankrupt, and hundreds of years of family business will be wiped out...
"Fellow Taoist, are you sure you can buy so much deer meat?"
"An adult Hu deer weighs hundreds of kilograms, and the dried meat can weigh up to 150 kilograms. Although a young Hu deer is smaller, one can make fifty kilograms of dried meat."
"This adds up to nearly ten million kilograms of meat!"
The head of the Hu family looked at Lin Chen with some suspicion.
Lin Chen sneered in his heart.
It’s just tens of millions of pounds of meat, who are you looking down on?
The millions of warriors in the martial realm alone would probably be able to consume all the dried meat in a month.
Of course, this dried meat is of great benefit to warriors.
In Lin Chen's opinion, it was simply a weakened version of the flesh and blood of a monster.
Although it is not as good as the third-level monster flesh and blood essence, it should only be slightly worse than the second-level monster flesh and blood essence.
The most important thing is that deer meat has no side effects, its energy is mild, and it is very suitable for warriors to absorb.
In Lin Chen's opinion, this batch of deer meat could at least train tens of thousands of martial arts masters or even great martial arts masters within a few years.
Let Daxia's backbone strength skyrocket in a short period of time, and a mere 20 million spirit stones will be nothing...
Of course, Lin Chen didn't plan to pay all with spirit stones.
"Haha, I don't think the Hu family should be worried about whether this batch of meat can be used, right?"
"As long as you can give me the venison within a month."
Lin Chen said calmly.
"Okay, it's a deal!"
"However, this transaction is huge. If fellow Taoist reneges, we will not be able to bear the loss..."
"Why don't you, fellow Taoist, give you a deposit first?"
The head of the Hu family looked into Lin Chen's eyes, but turned his head away for no reason, feeling guilty.
After hearing this, Lin Chen took out a bullet, and a storage bag fell into the hands of the head of the Hu family.
"I think this batch of pills should be used as a deposit."
The Hu family master probed into the storage bag with his consciousness, and then his face changed wildly.
The Guang family master beside him looked puzzled, took the storage bag and also probed it, and then his face changed as well.
"Wind... Wind Spirit..."
"Hush!"
Lin Chen made a gesture to keep quiet, and at the same time, his consciousness and cultivation were revealed.
Boom!
In an instant, the Hu family master and the Guang family master stood there like a crash, and their backs were wet with sweat.
"Yuan, Yuanying..."
The suppression of the consciousness of the Yuanying cultivator alone made it difficult for the two Jindan family masters to move at all.
Lin Chen quickly retracted his consciousness and smiled:
"Now, can the business be done?"
"Yes, definitely! Huh..."
The Hu family master and the Guang family master panted violently for a few breaths and said hurriedly.
What a joke, the person in front of them is a Yuanying real person!
And judging from the strength of his consciousness... at least he is in the middle stage of the Nascent Soul!
In addition, in the storage bag, there are fifty middle-grade Jinyuan Pills and five hundred foundation-building pills...
Under the current situation in Qingzhou, these breakthrough pills are hard currency, worth at least tens of millions of spirit stones.
It is equivalent to paying half of the deposit in one go, how could he not agree?
Lin Chen looked at the two family heads, nodded with satisfaction and said:
"I will send someone to pick it up in a month."
After that, Lin Chen turned into a beam of light and disappeared on the spot.
After Lin Chen left, the head of the Guang family finally breathed a sigh of relief and asked:
"Brother Hu, what should we do? This batch of Hu deer... are we really going to sell it to the Fengling Yueying Sect?"
The head of the Hu family asked back:
"What if we don't sell it? Are we going to watch hundreds of years of foundation destroyed? Or leave it to die for the Demon Sect?"
"This is 20 million spirit stones! We won't be able to sell so much Hu deer meat in the next few decades!"
"After doing this, I plan to move my whole family to Wendao City... Then I will be free and happy, and I won't be afraid of the Demon Sect?"
The head of the Guang family agreed deeply after hearing this.
"We must deal with it within one month... Whether it is the Demon Sect or the Fengling Yueying Sect, we can't afford to offend them!"
As the two largest forces in Huguang Town, they have long heard of the name of the Fengling Yueying Sect.
But before this, although Fengling Yueying Sect was strong, profound, and mysterious...
it had never revealed a Nascent Soul cultivator. Now this person's appearance shows that Fengling Yueying Sect also has a Nascent Soul cultivator!
Then Fengling Yueying Sect has the confidence to be completely fearless of the Demon Sect.
As a neutral force in Qingzhou, the two family heads naturally don't want to get involved.
...
The next morning, the four set out and left Huguang Town.
Lin Chen pretended to sell the goods, but actually took out 5 million spirit stones from his own pocket and gave them to Master Han Jihai and Li Zhenqian respectively.
The white spirit stones made them all excited.
With this windfall, everyone's travel was obviously smoother.
In the next month, the four people rushed all the way to Rendao City.
Because they were not in a hurry to go to Wendao City, they were considered to have "traveled" all the way.
Passing through more than a dozen towns, they tasted many delicacies.
Lin Chen also took this opportunity to frequently change his appearance and trade, and obtained a large amount of basic resources.
Of course, Lin Chen usually does not trade in the market town where the four people are, but uses the escape technique to travel thousands of miles to other markets to trade.
No matter how much the Demon Sect speculates, it is impossible to connect Lin Chen with the Yuanying Zhenren of Fengling Yueying Sect.
Until one month later, the four people were close to Wendao City.
At the same time, the martial arts puppet also delivered nearly 10 million kilograms of Hu deer meat to Lin Chen.
…
"Is this Wendao City?"
Li Zhenqian and Zhou Tieshan looked at the magnificent fairy city in front of them, and their hearts trembled with excitement.
Growing up in the East Region, the most magnificent sect they have seen is Changchun Sect.
The largest market town they have seen is the market town of Yudai City.
But whether it is Changchun Sect or Yudai City, it is simply a world of difference compared to Rendao City.
Lin Chen also pretended to be surprised and stared at the Rendao City in front of him.
Han Jihai was very satisfied with the reactions of the three people and nodded:
"This is the first city of the three cities of Taoism. We can stay here for a while."
"It's time to see the world. I just earned some spirit stones... We need to apply for a permanent residence permit in the city."
"No matter how powerful the Demon Sect is, it will never dare to invade Taoism City!"
Zhou Tieshan asked in confusion:
"Master, why doesn't the Demon Sect dare to attack the Humane City?"
Han Jihai smiled and said: "Because behind this city... is the True Lord Huashen!"
...
Soon, the four people moved into the Humane City.
Zhou Tieshan and Li Zhenqian had never experienced such a fairy city. As soon as they entered, they were fascinated by the tricks of this fairy city.
They wandered around the market, brothels and gambling houses every day.
Even Master Han Jihai had been here when he was young.
At that time, he was just a small foundation-building cultivator, and he was not as valuable as he is now.
With spare money in hand, he would enjoy spiritual tea, spiritual food, and spiritual wine, and would never want to leave...
Only Lin Chen, although he was also fascinated, still had restraint.
The group stayed in Rendao City for nearly three months.
During this period, Lin Chen also disguised himself and made many transactions in the city's shops and black markets.
After being promoted to Yuanying, Lin Chen acted a little bolder.
Do as much as you can.
After Nascent Soul, Lin Chen was more able to protect himself and did more transactions.
Nascent Soul monks can almost walk sideways on the land of Qingzhou. Unless they encounter veteran Nascent Souls like the old devil with blood eyes, they don't have much panic.
After leaving the Humanity City, the four set out for the Tunnel City.
Several months passed along the way.
…
Underground city, a small courtyard.
The weather was getting hotter. Lin Chen lay on the rocking chair in the courtyard and watched the people passing by on the street.
It has been more than half a year since the four of them left Changchun Gate.
I rented a small courtyard and stayed in the tunnel city for nearly two months.
Surprisingly, the major forces in the city did not pay the slightest attention to the situation of the demonic invasion.
However, the martial arts puppets Lin Chen sent out still occasionally sent news back to Lin Chen.
"It's almost time to prepare to break through to the Martial King level..."
Lin Chen stood up slowly. There were less than ten hours left before returning to Blue Star.
Lin Chen returned to his room in the small courtyard and meditated.
Until the early morning of the next day, the return countdown will be reset!
…
Daxia Kingdom, in the training room of the Martial Arts Palace.
Lin Chen sat cross-legged, breathing rhythmically.
As the breathing method continued to work, the energy and blood in Lin Chen's body started to surge.
In the blink of an eye, three days passed.
Lin Chen's energy and blood steadily increased, and he launched his final sprint towards the Martial King level.
Boom!
Suddenly, a muffled sound appeared in Lin Chen's heart.
Lin Chen felt a sense of relief all over his body, and he felt vaguely like he had been reborn.
The increase in physical fitness and qi and blood is not obvious, but breaking the bottleneck in this martial arts realm is like a transformation in life.
"Martial King Level, done!"
Lin Chen slowly opened his eyes, feeling a little excited.
The Martial King level is a major watershed in the realm of martial arts.
You can intuitively understand it just from the changes in longevity.
Wu Jun level, life span is 200 years.
Martial King level, with a life span of five hundred years.
"After becoming King of Martial, I am now fully capable of facing the middle stage of Nascent Soul..."
Just as Lin Chen was about to stand up, his expression suddenly changed.
He couldn't move.
"What's going on? Why can't I move my body..."
Lin Chen was stunned and sat cross-legged.
He can see and hear...
"Wait a minute, my hearing is also disabled...why is it so quiet?"
Lin Chen felt panic in his heart for no reason.
At this moment, Lin Chen seemed to be trapped in a vacuum, and all the small sounds disappeared.
With Lin Chen's spiritual sense, he should be able to hear even the smallest sound.
But now?
There were footsteps outside the training room, the sound of mosquitoes flapping their wings... and even the subtle sound of dust accumulation.
Nothing...can be heard.
"This feeling..."
Lin Chen frowned slightly, feeling as if he was being pressed into bed by a ghost.
My mind was awake, but my body couldn't move at all.
In front of me, everything seemed to be suspended.
"This is not a ghost pressing the bed... is time suspended?!"
Lin Chen's heart was shaken. This feeling was very similar to when he used "Bullet Time".
But bullet time only slows down your perception of time infinitely.
But in front of me... time seems to have really stopped.
"Hello, Destiny."
At this moment, an extremely old voice appeared in Lin Chen's ears.
Lin Chen's heart skipped a beat when he heard this voice.
He has heard this voice!
Although I only heard it once, I will never forget it.
It was the sound of "Zhu Jiuyin" that Lin Chen heard when he awakened his martial spirit!
"I'm here." Lin Chen responded in his heart.
"Destined man, I will soon fall into deep sleep again. Now... I will hand over part of my authority to you. You, make good use of it..."
Vaguely, Lin Chen felt an invisible energy injected into his body.
Just a moment later, Lin Chen felt that he could move again.
But unfortunately, Zhu Jiuyin's voice had disappeared.
Lin Chen was confused.
"What...Senior Zhu Jiuyin? Are you still there?"
"Don't leave in a hurry! Let's first talk about what a destiny person is!"
Lin Chen shouted several times, but Zhu Jiuyin didn't reply.
"Really gone?"
Lin Chen took a deep breath, feeling a little helpless.
"What secret does Zhu Jiuyin's power... hide?"
Soon, Lin Chen put this problem behind him.
Because he discovered his newfound abilities.
Every transformation of a warrior's life can develop the power of the martial spirit to a greater extent.
Grow up with Wu Ling.
But Lin Chen seemed to be a little different.
He clearly inherited the power of Zhu Jiuyin...
But this time, the ability that Lin Chen inherited was called time control!
His heart moved slightly, and everything around him slowed down in Lin Chen's eyes.
This is not bullet time, let your perception become faster and you can react more.
But in a real sense, it slows down the flow of time!
The flow of time of the surrounding creatures and things slowed down, but Lin Chen remained unchanged!
"Well, it probably affects the flow rate of time within ten meters around the body... it's about three times slower!"
Lin Chen's expression immediately changed slightly.
After only holding on for two or three seconds, Lin Chen felt that nearly half of his physical strength was exhausted.
Lin Chen was so frightened that he stopped quickly.
"Damn it, this ability... consumes too much physical energy!"
He felt his heart speed up and beat fast.
He stopped immediately.
Control time and slow down the flow of time. This is indeed an amazing ability.
So much so that it is not something that a mere Martial King can touch.
If his martial spirit was not Zhu Jiuyin, Lin Chen would never have been able to touch this level of power.
"But... the speed of controlling the flow of time is only three times... what if it is used at the same time as bullet time?"
Lin Chen suddenly thought of it, and then couldn't help but try it.
The next second...
Boom!
Lin Chen's eyes went dark, and then he fell to the ground.
When Lin Chen woke up again, he was lying in the training room.
Li Nian and Wang Xinyu stood by and waited.
"Lin Chen, you're awake!"
Wang Xinyu became excited.
Lin Chen rubbed his head, felt the fatigue in his body, and asked:
"How many days did I sleep?"
"Two full days and two nights!" Wang Xinyu said.
Lin Chen was speechless for a while.
Bullet time plus controlling the flow of time...
The superposition of these two powers is obviously not something that Lin Chen can do now.
"Alas, I miscalculated... Even the King of Martial Arts cannot use these two powers at the same time?"
Lin Chen shook his head.
However, it is precisely because of this that the ability to control time is even more valuable.
Perhaps, one day when Lin Chen is strong enough.
It will not only slow down the flow of time...
It may be possible to stop time...
Or even go backwards!
