Chapter 1565: Chapter 579: Taking Frequent Action, Luo Chen in the Spotlight_3

“That guy must be the one you were quite interested in before, right? Looking at him now, it’s hard to say about his strength, but his financial resources are indeed substantial.”

“From what I see, his strength is probably not that great. Acquiring so much ore material, he seems to be preparing to forge his natal magic item. How strong can a golden core cultivator without a natal magic item be?”

“It’s just unknown where his spirit stones come from, haven’t you heard he’s just a rogue cultivator?”

Wu Qi’s expression was unreadable in the face of his companion’s discussions.

However, his gaze fell on a man sitting in a corner.

Suddenly.

“Daoist He Yuan, speaking of which, this person came to Feileng City on the same merchant ship as you, you should know him, right?”

He Yuan raised his head calmly from the corner.

“Is that so?”

Wu Qi smiled slightly, “I should be right. I inquired about this person yesterday and happened to learn that he disembarked from the Bai family’s merchant ship.”

While smiling, he questioned, “Could it be that you didn’t notice him at the time?”

He Yuan frowned slightly but did not answer, as if pondering something.

Meanwhile.

Above on the fourth floor.

A man clad in a blood-red robe was communicating with someone telepathically.

“Feileng, are you really going to take out that item?”

The response came quickly.

“To lure the fish, bait is necessary. Reaping without sowing is not such an easy matter. Blood Nightmare, you won’t go back on the other matter you promised me once this is done, right?”

The man in the blood robe’s mouth lifted slightly, “It seems you are willing to bet, but with your assurance, this appears to be a challenge we can accept. As for the other matter…”

Just then, his expression flickered, directing his gaze downward.

Divine consciousness spread out, entering into the private room on the second floor where Luo Chen was.

“An interesting individual with contradictions…”

“What’s wrong?” A cool inquisitive female voice came through.

Blood Nightmare tugged at the corner of his mouth, “Nothing important, I just found an intriguing little fellow. Let’s get back to the matter at hand, has Elder Brother Ji Yuan agreed?”

True Master Feileng responded coldly, “I’ve even taken out that precious item, how could Elder Brother Ji Yuan hesitate? When the time comes, the three of us will take action together!”

The man in the blood robe nodded slightly, but still gave a reminder.

“Leaving aside the other nascent soul stage cultivators, you have to give Elder Fu a heads-up in advance, to avoid him messing up our plan.”

True Master Feileng paused, then replied, “You always think things through. I almost forgot, Elder Fu is quite wealthy, if he were to make a move, it would indeed ruin our plan.”

…

Putting aside how others discuss the high-profile Luo Chen.

For the man himself, facing the new auction item presented by Leng Ruolan, he instantly gathered all his attention.

Not only him, but Han Zhan inside the Primordial Chaos Tripod was also shaking in divine soul.

“Soul Nourishing Wood, over an inch long, with a lifespan of three thousand years. Obtained from the Oblivion Sea, tainted with miasma.”

“The specific price is hard to estimate, but after authentication, as long as the miasma is removed, this wood can still be used.”

“As for how to use it, that will depend on the methods of the esteemed cultivators here.”

“Starting bid, one million spirit stones. Each bid must not be less than a hundred thousand!”

Here it comes!

Luo Chen’s eyes narrowed, and he immediately and without hesitation opened his mouth.

“Two million spirit stones, I, Luo Chen, am determined to have this item!”

Following the prior buildup, Luo Chen’s bid, in an instant, attracted the attention of everyone.

Everyone knew that this person was extremely wealthy; whenever he made a move, there was seldom failure to win the auction.

Now, he has doubled the starting price, clearly showing the depth of his financial resources and his immense confidence!

For a moment, the venue went silent.
