"Shun Tian Auction House, I"ve heard of you guys. My father even went there to bid for items, what do you want this dead fish for?" Shen Longxuan asked calmly."That"s our honor, to be able to kill Swordtooth Fish in the water after seeing little brother is truly extraordinary. Truly impressive."
The fatty chuckled. This was a tactic commonly used by merchants. First, it was a large hat to let one"s guard down, and then, they would ruthlessly slaughter the merchants when negotiating the price.
"I think you also know that this Swordtooth Fish is a rare delicacy. Otherwise, you wouldn"t have sliced the meat." The fat guy wiped the saliva off his face and continued.
"But eating like this can"t stimulate the freshness of the meat. Only through special methods can this delicacy be perfect. Coincidentally, I know this special craft.
That taste is something that makes people not get tired of eating. Little brother, I won"t lie to you, the price is one word, three thousand gold coins. After all, you have already taken the demon core s and teeth.
"This is the highest price that I can offer. Others definitely wouldn"t offer such a high price to collect it." With that, he rubbed his hands together and waited eagerly for Shen Longxuan"s reply.
"Deal!"
Shen Longxuan was very straightforward, it would not be easy for him to take this thing away, he might as well sell it to Fatty.
"Good!" "Little brother, it"s really too straightforward." Little brother, it"s really too straightforward. Fatty threw over a bag of gold coins and ordered his subordinates to load the Swordteeth Fish onto the carriage. He also scattered a lot of ice cubes all around.
"Little brother, if you need anything, remember to come to the Shun Tian Auction House to find me, Fatty Zhu. As long as there"s something in the world, I can get it for you!"
Although Shen Longxuan knew that the fatty was bragging, he still silently remembered this name in his heart.
After eating a mouthful of dry rations, Shen Longxuan continued to walk deeper into the forest. The Demonic Beast inside had become more concentrated, but most of them were first rank s, which was consistent with what Shen Linger had described.
Shen Longxuan had killed more than ten Demonic Beast in the afternoon, but his good luck seemed to have pa.s.sed. He had only acquired one demon core, and he had harvested quite a few of the materials.
The key point was that after training, he would be able to control his strength more proficiently. The fear of battle was gradually disappearing. Even if he was injured, he would still be able to calmly face his opponent. This was his greatest gain.
Before night fell, Shen Longxuan returned home. The dark night was the world of the Demonic Beast in the mountain range, so he did not dare take the risk.
He placed his own rewards on the table, "These should sell for a few thousand gold coins. Also, these three demon core s can also be sold for a lot of money."
Since the production of first rank s was very small, and low level pills and weapons required such a thing, first rank s could be sold for a high price.
After admiring it for a while, Shen Longxuan summoned his battle spirit and prepared to start cultivating. After all, cultivating on the path of martial cultivator was like moving against the current, retreating only if one didn"t advance further.
So after a day of intense fighting, the best time was to cultivate. He silently operated the battle spirit and every strand of spirit energy was absorbed into his body.
The spirit energy that entered his body was quickly devoured by the cells in his body. They were like hungry beasts that were frantically trying to s.n.a.t.c.h food, when suddenly, Shen Longxuan"s expression changed.
He opened his eyes and saw the three demon core rapidly shrinking in size, in the blink of an eye they had become three blood-colored beads.
Seeing the demon core that he had painstakingly acquired disappear, not only did Shen Longxuan not get angry, he smiled happily, because this signified that the demon core could also advance.
He randomly picked up a red bead and carefully observed it. He could feel that it was filled with a violent energy, but he did not know what it was.
After cultivating for a while, he fell asleep. The gentle moonlight shone into the room, illuminating his small face, which was smiling even when he was sleeping.
In the two consecutive months, his left hand also turned golden, which doubled his combat strength.
In these two months, he had killed more than a thousand Demonic Beast and swallowed more than a hundred of them.
Today was the day of the compet.i.tion with Shen Liang, so Shen Longxuan had long since made his preparations and came to the training grounds to wait.
His current strength was at the peak of the fourth level of Body Tempering stage, but his real strength could easily defeat a fifth level Body Tempering martial artist, or even a sixth level Body Tempering martial artist.
In addition, his hands had turned golden. That was an existence that could not even harm a Swordtooth Fish"s teeth. It was comparable to a divine weapon, so he had a very high chance of winning.
Although the Shen Family felt that Shen Longxuan would definitely lose, and that this battle would not be interesting, a majority of the people still came to the surroundings of the stage.
"This guy really arrived early!"
Aren"t you the one who lost early on! And he will lose miserably! "
"That"s not necessarily true. As long as one side admits defeat in this compet.i.tion, killing is not allowed. If I had admitted defeat earlier, I would have avoided losing my life."
Hearing the discussions, Shen Longxuan smiled, and then, Shen Jianfeng and the elders rushed over.
"Xiaoxuanzi, don"t worry. If Shen Liang dares to hurt you, Big Sis will take revenge for you!" Hearing Shen Linger"s words, Shen Longxuan almost fell to the ground.
"Sis, you have some confidence in me, okay?" Shen Longxuan laughed bitterly.
However, when everyone heard this, they all had faces of disbelief. He hadn"t even cultivated for half a year, yet he actually wanted to defeat a Body Tempering Seventh Layer warrior. This was simply wishful thinking.
Shen Jianfeng saw his worries, the scorn of the elders, and the mockery of the Shen Family. He simply closed his eyes and ignored them.
"It"s better to speak with results!"
Just then, Shen Liang who was wearing a blue robe walked over, with a leap, he jumped onto the stage.
"Shen Longxuan, are you going to kneel and beg for forgiveness now, or am I going to cripple you?"
Shen Longxuan opened his eyes, flames burning within them, "Shen Liang, the humiliation you have brought me, I will repay it in full!"
"Alright, hearing you say so, I actually don"t want to end this battle so soon. Today, I"ll let you have a taste of my shame in front of everyone!"
Shen Liang extended his hand and shook off his gown, "Come, trash, let me see how much you"ve improved."
Shen Longxuan did not continue speaking, his body shot out with a bang, looking down from above like a ferocious fist.
Shen Liang laughed in disdain, "With such abilities, you really are a waste!" He raised his hand and punched.
Bang ~
Using the force of the impact, Shen Longxuan flipped himself up and landed on the ground. He did not stop at all, the aura from his entire body surged, and he immediately rubbed himself.
"This power actually surpa.s.sed the fifth level of the Body Tempering stage?" Below the stage, Patriarch Seven cried out in alarm.
"What?" Shen Family had a face full of disbelief.
"You have some skill, but if that"s the case, then get down!" Although Shen Liang was a little shocked, he still had a plan in mind.
Shen Longxuan and the Demonic Beast had fought for two months, and it had not been for nothing. He had experienced many life and death situations, and it was precisely because of this that he had a strong battle awareness.
When they got close to each other, Shen Liang actually could not do anything to him in that short amount of time.
The people below the stage were completely dumbfounded. Was he even the trash of Shen Family?
Shen Linger waved her fist fiercely, her little mouth muttering, "Right, just like that, beat him up!"
Shen Jianfeng"s face became serious, and the elders did not agree with it either, because they could see that Shen Longxuan"s actual cultivation level was only at the fourth level of the Body Tempering stage.
He didn"t know what methods he used to actually be able to unleash the strength of a sixth stage Body Tempering Stage, but it definitely wouldn"t be for a long time.
"Shen Longxuan, I admit that you are very strong now, but trash is trash, it"s time to end this!"
Shen Liang finally lost his patience, the aura from his body rose and a faint pressure appeared. Peak of Tempered Body 7th Layer!
Seeing that, Shen Longxuan no longer hesitated, he shot out like an arrow, his two fists released a faint golden light, flying straight towards Shen Liang.
Boom!
With a loud noise, the stage shook, Shen Liang was forced back five steps, his face was as white as paper, he spat out a mouthful of blood and collapsed onto the ground.
Shen Longxuan felt an emptiness in his body. The strike just now had used up all of his spirit power, but he still walked step by step towards Shen Liang.
"Shen Liang, you lost!"
These five words were like a thunderbolt.
"Shen Liang is the genius of the Shen Family, to actually lose to trash, am I dreaming?"
"He must have eaten something to increase his strength, if not, how could a trash like him be able to defeat Shen Liang?"
The Great Clan Elder bellowed angrily, "Shen Longxuan, for the sake of winning, you actually used pills to win! What can you do even if you win?"
"Humph, Great Clan Elder, tell us, what pill can increase a person"s strength by three realms. If we had this pill, would our Shen Family be at such a disadvantage?"
Shen Jianfeng bellowed, the Great Clan Elder was speechless! Indeed, there was no such pill. Even if there was, perhaps even Shen Family would not be able to afford it.
"Next, I declare that Shen Longxuan is the victor of this compet.i.tion!"
When Shen Jianfeng"s hammer made a sound, Shen Liang, who was on stage, spat out another mouthful of blood. His expression was dejected and the Great Clan Elder flew up onto the stage, preparing to take him away.
"Wait, the Great Elder seems to have forgotten something, right?" Shen Longxuan said in a bland voice, "According to the agreement before, if Shen Liang loses, it"s basically framing me. He"s being punished by the clan rules for half a year"s worth of cultivation resources, is that not too much?"
"You … "Humph!" The Great Clan Elder almost lost his footing and quickly brought Shen Liang to leave.
All of this was because of Shen Longxuan. Shen Family looked at Shen Longxuan who was on the stage with a complicated feeling in his heart.
But no matter what, from this moment onwards, no one dared to look down on him, including everyone in the Shen Family.
Shen Jianfeng did not closely question his son"s reason. He knew that if he could, Shen Longxuan would definitely say it himself.
The life in the Shen Family became peaceful once again, but whenever a clan member met Shen Longxuan, they would respectfully call him Young Master!
But, as he saw the impending danger to his family, Shen Longxuan"s heart burned with anxiety!
