The secret formula for refining the evolution liquid is too valuable.
Then his origin would probably be even more extraordinary.
Such a place is worth visiting again as long as it’s not empty yet.
Lu Yu guessed that there might be even more valuable treasures inside, but Wang Ling and the others had either not found them or lacked the strength to get close.
Wang Ling did not hesitate in response to Lu Yu’s inquiry and said, “The location isn’t classified. I can tell you.”
Wang Ling, shuddering slightly as he spoke, said, “Even if you gave me the chance, I’d never go in there again!”
Wang Ling paused for a moment and said, “There’s definitely a condition for entry—it’s located in a mountain range along the border between China and India. Actually, if it weren’t for the war between China and India, during which the border was pushed several dozen miles into Indian territory, we wouldn’t have had the chance to enter. The Indians had already excavated that passageway; it’s a space connected by a city of magic.”
As Wang Ling spoke, he took out a map and handed it to Lu Yu, saying, “The marked location on this map indicates where that space is. However, Mr. Lu, if you truly plan to go there, you might have to wait for some time. Because only after entering did we realize that once it’s accessed, it closes for five years. If you wish to enter, you’ll have to wait until five years have passed. As for what dangers lie inside, I can’t tell you. Because after we exited, all memories regarding what was inside had been completely erased.”
My only memory is of a place that swallowed up over a hundred of our team members—it was an extremely terrifying and perilous location.
Lu Yu put away the map and smiled, saying, “Then I understand. Regarding your payment, give me two days—I’ll pay you every penny two days from now.”
“I still trust Mr. Lu’s reputation,” Wang Ling said earnestly. “Forty percent of it belongs to me originally, but I don’t need my share anymore. You can pass my portion to several younger generations of mine. The remaining part belongs to Zhang Yong and another person. If those two show up, just let me know. I’ll verify their identities and settle things with them.”
“I will inform Liu Xing to take care of these matters. As for your payment, you’ll need to collect it from Liu Xing as well,” Lu Yu said, nodding his head.
The money in his hands was almost used up. However, Lu Yu rarely used the proceeds from the transactions in recent years that Liu Xing held.
Therefore, Liu Xing’s business kept growing larger and larger. It was estimated that he should have no less than hundreds of billions of Star Spirit Stones in his possession. However, gathering them all together would still require some effort.
Moreover, Lu Yu finally understood why Qin Hai was so calm and had not gone to that space to search on his own.
Since he couldn’t get in there at all, he no longer felt anxious.
Lu Yu handed the last one hundred Blue Planet Souls in his possession to Wang Ling, and told Wang Ling that if he lacked other materials, he could seek help from Liu Xing.
The kind of top-grade evolution liquid produced must be reserved.
As for the Evolution Fluid, half of it would be given to Liu Xing for sale, while the remaining half he would keep to enhance his Domain Guards.
After giving instructions to Wang Ling, Lu Yu left the core area, found Liu Xing, and briefed him about Wang Ling’s matter before finally departing.
Lu Yu gently patted the few bottles in his arms and smiled slightly as he walked away.
If the humanoid tribes don’t come looking for him, then so be it. But if they do seek him out, then let them exchange the Soul of Blue Planet for him.
The casting of Domain Guardians requires a huge amount of Blue Planet Souls. Moreover, evolving a single entity to such a level demands one drop of Evolutionary Liquid, and his consumption of Evolutionary Liquid is even more substantial.
As for the top-grade evolution liquid, its effects naturally go without saying.
With these hundred drops of Evolution Serum, it would be a shame not to get a hefty batch of Blue Planet Souls from the humanoid race, considering the effort it took to face off in the ruins.
This huge trade fair gave him an effect that he didn’t even need to promote.
Lu Yu left Fanggang and returned to the Demon Hunting Plains.
Since Lu Yu also joined the ranks of enforcers at this expo, many humans who previously dared not go have now set out as well.
Previously, they feared being bullied by the humanoid and demon races. Now that Lu Yu has stepped forward, everything is different.
When Lu Yu went to the ruins where the fair was held again, the number of humans heading there was increasing.
The old serpent man’s goal is also money.
With Lu Yu’s status, it would be enough to attract a large number of people to join.
The price for each entrant is calculated at one thousand Star Spirit Stones, so for one hundred thousand people, there would be at least one hundred million Star Spirit Stones.
Moreover, each person setting up a stall must pay ten thousand Star Spirit Stones as a protection fee.
Even selling an ordinary item can bring a profit of hundreds or thousands of times the original price. Such a small fee is no longer a concern for people nowadays.
The more people there are, the more fees are collected.
By then, just these two expenses are expected to amount to billions.
This is not a small amount.
A transaction yielding hundreds of billions of Star Spirit Stones in one go, like what Lu Yu experienced, is probably a once-in-a-century occurrence.
After Lu Yu entered the ruins where the fair was held again, there were even more people inside—so crowded that it was more packed than a vegetable market.
At least a million people have entered these ruins, not counting those who set up stalls.
Lu Yu did not reveal his identity within the crowd.
It seemed that after experiencing the recent turmoil, even the humanoid warriors here had become much more restrained.
Lu Yu was searching for what he wanted.
But this time he was very disappointed; the items sold outside were truly rare and hard to come by.
It’s already extremely lucky to come across the formula for refining the evolution liquid.
If one were to normally tour this ruins, it would take at least a month to see all these stalls.
Moreover, many things cannot wait for you to go out and buy them.
Lu Yu gave up the search altogether.
Now that you’ve obtained the refined formula, you should be content.
Lu Yu walked toward the center of the ruins. Halfway there, he grabbed a ten-year-old child who had come along with his parents and said, “Come with me, and there will be something in it for you.”
The child was startled, and the parents beside him were even more frightened by Lu Yu.
The two of them knew Lu Yu and became even more anxious, hurriedly saying, “Mr. Lu, this child doesn’t know any better; please don’t take offense.”
Today, Lu Yu was being unreasonable, taking it to an extreme where even children aren’t spared.
“Give him a chance. If you miss it, don’t blame me,” Lu Yu said, without wanting to explain further or force the matter. He gestured toward the child and added, “It’s entirely up to your decision.”
This pair of parents were first taken aback, then hesitated, and finally nodded their heads.
“However, we need to stay with the children,” the woman replied hesitantly.
“Okay, then follow me.” Lu Yu didn’t object.
It’s really not easy to find a child who is an only child anymore.
Lu Yu led the way toward the center of the ruins.
Gathered there are representatives from various organizations, each stationed at their respective booths.
The weakest here are Supreme Star Soldiers with an attack power of at least fifty.
There were also many spectators and buyers gathered here.
Anyone daring to pick up a weapon here and haggle over the price must have at least several billion star spirit stones or other rare treasures to exchange; otherwise, they wouldn’t even dare to utter a word.
Occasionally, I heard people haggling over prices and the impatient voices of the vendors.
“This weapon costs three hundred million star spirits, and the price is non-negotiable.”
“Boss, there’s no need to insist on not dropping even a single cent. Two hundred and fifty million, and it has to be two pieces.”
…
Some people were also hawking goods, shouting, “Two half-star artifacts! One fragment for three Blue Star souls, or two hundred million star spirit stones for one piece—no bargaining!”
…
“Those who are interested, come and have a look. Star Treasures that add one hundred points of vitality are available at ten billion Star Spirit Stones each, or for other items of equivalent value.”
A human warrior approached the stall owner, picked up an item, and said, “Three Blue Star Souls for your Star Treasure. Do you want to trade?”
“What a joke! A single piece of Blue Planet Soul is only worth 200 million. If you exchange three of them for my Star Treasure, wouldn’t I be at a loss?”
This was a peculiar-mouthed person, who took out three Blue Star Souls from his own small backpack and said, “Well, there must be a price and a market for it. Don’t think that we humanoid races are fools.”
…
The hawking here is not as noisy as outside, but the price of goods at each stall starts from at least hundreds of millions.
As Lu Yu walked in, many eyes turned toward him, focusing on Lu Yu.
Someone exclaimed excitedly, “Mr. Lu, what is it that you’re planning to sell?”
“Mr. Lu, you have a complete set of Star Connectors and Half Star Connectors in your hands. Even the ones you’ve discarded are probably genuine top-grade items. Mr. Lu, do you have anything good that I can acquire?”
Many people here know Lu Yu.
As soon as they saw Lu Yu walking over, they all immediately stopped shouting and selling.
Some people even handed their stalls over to their partners and ran to Lu Yu’s side, saying, “Mr. Lu, after the evolution liquid is refined, our organization is willing to pay a high price to purchase one-tenth of it.”
“Nelson, you want a tenth? What are we supposed to do?” someone complained, “The Hell King and the humanoid race are already taking four tenths. If you take another tenth, who will be left with enough to divide?”
Nelson, who spoke first, laughed and said, “I don’t care about that. We’re all competing on equal terms. It just depends on who can afford to swallow it, right? You all know the price of the evolution liquid—it’s not easy to afford at that price.”
A warrior of the Snake Clan approached from a distance and said, “That’s right; it all comes down to who has greater resources. Mr. Lu, I wonder what it is you plan to sell? If it’s something useful to our humanoid race, I’m willing to offer a price ten percent higher than others.”
Behind the humanoid warrior were at least dozens of companions, including black wolves, grotesque-mouthed humans, snake people, and ape demons.
The couple and child behind Lu Yu had already widened their eyes in astonishment, finding it simply unbelievable.
They were merely ordinary people, having never witnessed such a grand spectacle before.
Many of those who approached Lu Yu to speak were leaders of various organizations. Some of them were even familiar with him, renowned experts in their own right, and a few were even the dominant figures in their respective cities.
These people were usually high and mighty, but now they were actually being so polite to Lu Yu. It was really an eye-opening experience.
As for the child, he was even more excited, pointing at a tall man with wide eyes and exclaiming, “Mom, this is Qian Hai, the number one expert in our city.”
“Hey, who is this kid? Is Mr. Lu your friend?” The big man patted the child’s head and said, “Come on, Uncle doesn’t have much for a gift, so here, take this Star Soldier.”
The big man said, and then took out a Supreme Star Weapon from his ring, handing it to the child. “Take it. I used to use it, but I don’t need it anymore.”
The child’s parents were even more astonished.
With an attack power of fifteen zuns and two skills, this star soldier is worth at least ten million star spirit stones.
Such a thing was casually given away to a child.
If it weren’t for being by Lu Yu’s side, would they have received such treatment?
Lu Yu looked around as the crowd grew larger and then cleared his throat, saying, “Everyone, we’re here today to trade some evolution fluid. Of course, the evolution fluid isn’t the main item; there’s something else that’s even more precious.”
“What, there’s something more precious than the Evolution Serum?” The humanoid warrior was moved.
“The Evolution Serum is already the most supreme treasure available now. How could there be anything better than it?” The surrounding crowd erupted in astonishment, and even more stall vendors gathered around.
Within less than ten minutes, thousands of people had already gathered around.
Lu Yu pulled the child close and said, “Do you all see this child? I think you understand his status, don’t you?”
