Chang County——
This place wasn’t originally well-known!
It was not until the Dragon’s Nest appeared here that this place became known to everyone.
This place is now occupied by the Demon Clan.
However, when dozens of people left Fanggang and entered the city occupied by the demons, the demons began to retreat.
These demon clans did not resist at all, not even showing the slightest desire to attack!
“Starting today, Chang County is under my control. The Dragon’s Nest can be entered, but no one is allowed to interfere with my people’s operations in Chang County.” Lu Yu spoke at Fanggang, and through the Celestial Deity Organization, his words spread across all of Huaxia.
At the first opportunity, someone raised doubts aloud, saying, “Why should it belong to you? You’ve already taken two cities—do you want to occupy the entire Huaxia region as well?”
Just an hour after this person’s skepticism echoed in a city, the Dragon King, with a height of a million zhang, arrived above the city, bringing along an aura capable of destroying the heavens and annihilating the earth.
“You don’t believe it? Go ahead and try!”
The entire city was trembling; even a ninth-level king couldn’t help but kneel, while the bodies of the weak cracked inch by inch.
Within less than half a minute, the giant dragon vanished into the sky.
No need for explanations; strength speaks for itself.
Seeing the colossal dragon stretching a million zhang long, who would dare to doubt it?
Chen Zhenglong and his family returned to their hometown, filled with immense excitement.
They were born here and have returned after being away from home for ten years.
They returned in the name of Lu Yu, and even the demonic clans retreated.
Chen Zhenglong and others are the only ones in Chang County who know about the secret of the Dragon’s Nest. Lu Yu hopes they can uncover the mystery of the Dragon King’s heart—what could possibly cause a Dragon King to leave behind its heart, allowing people to disturb its burial site!
In the following days, dozens of magic cities, along with items from the deceased魔主 scattered within the domain, accumulated into mountains.
Thirteen Grade 9 Spirit Stones!
This is the rarest Star Spirit Stone, even a Demon Lord would find it hard to possess.
Each piece is almost a treasure left for future generations, ensuring that the next heir can break through the limits of the Star Master.
Soul of the Blue Planet, three pieces!
This is indeed a treasure of incalculable value.
Then there were star spirit stones of various levels, countless mutated star spirit pearls, and ordinary star spirit pearls in abundance.
Fifteen bodies of the Demon Lords—this was the most valuable treasure.
In the storage bead on the Sea of Blood, Lu Yu found the one thing that excited him the most!
The Ice Heart Gallbladder, second only to the Poison Dragon’s venom, was actually found within the Blood Sea.
Now, he already has the Poisonous Phoenix and the Iceheart Gallbladder, and only needs six more potent poisons to complete the set.
Lu Yu and Huo Wu spent three days sorting and categorizing everything in this place.
Five thousand defensive towers were completed, consuming massive resources, but also easing Lu Yu’s mind somewhat.
Liu Xing was even more stunned, his eyes wide with disbelief.
So many things, enough to buy dozens of cities.
He was also responsible for categorizing and documenting the effects of special items.
The person sent by the Celestial Organization arrived within twenty-four hours after the day they had arranged with Lu Yu.
He couldn’t enter the area, but when he saw the mountain of items piled up, his face turned pale.
Next, he suddenly became very excited.
Lu Yu asked him to wait for a few days, but this person decisively left the organization, taking with him everything he had seen and even a photograph.
In an instant, the interior of the Celestial Deity Organization erupted into chaos.
One person is not enough. Send more people there.
“There’s so much food, we can’t possibly finish it all.”
“No, no matter how many, we must at least consume the best batch. The bodies of those fifteen demons must have at least five secured!”
A one-hour meeting.
A star master, along with a person fully responsible for the transaction, and several analysts all arrived at Fangang.
They are willing to wait for a long time to see something as magnificent as a mountain!
On the tenth day, Lu Yu finally stepped out from the domain.
The man in charge of the transaction had already eagerly stepped forward, excitedly saying, “Mr. Lu, when can our deal begin?”
The man was in his thirties.
However, considering some situations after the apocalypse, this person was already over fifty years old, though their appearance had changed little.
When he saw the treasure piled up like a small mountain, he could hardly wait any longer.
He was a man who loved collecting treasures and was also very skilled in business.
Seeing the anxious look on the man’s face, Lu Yu nodded and said, “The transaction can begin.”
“That’s great!” The man immediately nodded, rubbing his hands together and saying, “Mr. Lu, please come this way. We’ve already prepared the place for negotiations and can start anytime!”
Lu Yu followed this person for a short while before arriving at a conference hall located in a business building in Fanggang, which belonged to the Celestial Organization.
On the way, Lu Yu roughly learned about this person’s situation.
His name is Qian Hao, and he is just an ordinary businessman.
He has a great talent for speaking, knows how to read people’s expressions and is very smooth in dealing with others.
Unfortunately, he was born in an inauspicious era. Before the end times, he engaged in two business ventures, one of which was ruined by so-called public servants, leaving him completely bankrupt.
After barely managing to make a comeback, he found himself caught in the apocalypse.
Fortunately, this time he had the backing of the Celestial Deity Organization, and with his abilities, he tripled the organization’s assets within ten years.
Within the Tian Shen organization, Qian Hao was considered a senior figure.
This time, the Celestial Organization sent him here, which was also a sign of respect towards Lu Yu.
In the vast conference hall, only Qian Hao and Lu Yu were present.
As soon as the door of the conference hall closed, Qian Hao’s expression of excitement and enthusiasm suddenly vanished.
He solemnly and seriously took out two crystal boxes from a storage bead and handed them to Lu Yu, getting straight to the point, “Mr. Lu, these two items mark the beginning of our transaction. Exchanging these two items for two bodies of the Demon Lord, I believe it’s absolutely worth it.”
One box contains a charred wooden fragment the size of a palm, while another box holds a dead three-headed scorpion measuring half a foot in length.
“Poisonous栖木and Three-headed Scorpion?” Lu Yu’s expression turned serious when he saw these two boxes.
He did not expect the Celestial Deity Organization to possess such immense power.
This is only ten days, and two highly toxic substances have already been found!
“You’ve provided us with very limited information, so we can only search based on a few clues and speculations. As for the remaining items, we are working hard on it and will contact you immediately once we have any news.”
Qian Hao observed Lu Yu’s expression and realized the importance of these two items to him. He immediately emphasized the difficulties encountered during the search to gain an advantage in the negotiation.
“That’s right; finding two so quickly really surprises me. The Celestial Organization’s capabilities are indeed impressive.”
Lu Yu calmly nodded and said, “These two items are enough to exchange for two bodies of a devil king!”
Qian Hao pushed the box in his hand toward Lu Yu and said, “Then please accept these two items. As for the items we need, you can give them to me all at once after the transaction is completed.”
As he spoke, Qian Hao gestured for Lu Yu to sit down, poured him a cup of tea that had been prepared in advance, and said, “This time, the organization’s instruction is that I must bring back at least six魔王 bodies. I still need four more. I need to confirm with Mr. Lu regarding which item you hope to use for the exchange?”
“Am I the one to decide?” Lu Yu thought for a moment and immediately understood.
The Celestial Deity Organization needs the physical body of the Demon Lord, and I possess exactly what they require.
Combined with the strength he has displayed over the past few days, it has been enough to send shockwaves across the entire Huaxia continent. In fact, the Celestial Deity Organization’s transaction this time was more about building a closer relationship with him and dispelling the negative impressions from the past.
Qian Hao arrived. If a person known for their negotiation skills even gives up on the method of negotiation itself, it indicates that in this transaction, they didn’t even plan to discuss the price.
As long as the price Lu Yu offers isn’t too unreasonable, they would rather take a loss and complete the deal.
Lu Yu, having realized this point, no longer hesitated to be polite.
“I need a large number of Mutated Zerg pearls, and they must come from specific lifeforms.” Lu Yu listed the names of the monsters that primarily dropped silver armor components, deliberately mixing in several types of unnecessary mutated pearls to prevent the Celestial organization from deciphering and discovering the fusion method for the Mountain Armor.
After Lu Yu designated the Star Spirit Pearl, he announced a staggeringly large number and said, “I’ll trade you a Devil Monarch’s body. I think this deal is more than fair for you, isn’t it?”
Qian Hao had already noted the name in a notebook, quickly calculated its value, and immediately said, “This one is fine.”
This number is enormous; if converted, it is not lower in value than the Demon King’s.
However, for them, the corpse of the Demon Lord was more important.
Overall, they made a profit this time.
However, Lu Yu didn’t go too far either; he basically didn’t report anything too exaggerated.
After finishing his note, Qian Hao continued, “Mr. Lu, is there anything else you need? As long as we have it, we will definitely satisfy your request.”
“There’s nothing for now.” Lu Yu’s various abilities were currently at a level that couldn’t be enhanced by ordinary items.
What remained now required his own effort.
Qian Hao closed his notebook and said seriously, “Mr. Lu, if you don’t need anything else, perhaps you could consider our offer? One corpse of a Devil Lord in exchange for one piece of intelligence.”
“Oh, what kind of information is this, worth so much money?” Lu Yu’s eyes sparkled as he said, “Tell me more!”
Qian Hao said seriously, “This information was originally known only to the upper echelons of our organization. However, we are now willing to share it with Mr. Lu. Still, we ask Mr. Lu not to disclose it to anyone else. Otherwise, it might potentially trigger a major upheaval.”
“You can rest assured; I can guarantee that it won’t be leaked,” Lu Yu nodded in agreement.
You should also know that the Celestial God System was developed by our organization. It’s essentially a capability embedded into the loopholes of this world. In our recent research, we discovered that besides Grade-9 weapons, this world also contains even higher-level weapons, and possibly more. However, if one wants to exchange for these in the Celestial God System, it would require a tremendous amount of resources. For now, we’ve found that within the Level-1 Celestial God System, using five corpses of Demon Lords and this bead as a medium can unlock another hidden option.
As he spoke, Qian Hao took out a Star Spirit Pearl dropped by the lowest-grade Demon Ape and handed it to Lu Yu, saying, “After placing five demon king corpses into it, you can crush the Star Spirit Pearl to open another interface. I know Mr. Lu will definitely go there, so we’ve already sent a level-one Heavenly God system to your villa.”
Within that hidden system, we encountered something that should not have been there.
“For example—” Qian Hao paused, then said seriously, “Inside, there is armor with a defense value as high as millions of billions.”
