Chapter 653: The Deal with the Dark Yin Celestial Venerable
Chapter 653: The Deal with the Dark Yin Celestial Venerable
Soon enough.
The group of Celestial Venerables saw Lin Yuan sitting cross-legged beneath the massive core Celestial Pillar.
"Galaxy."
Chiyaz Celestial Venerable immediately called out.
"Met the Galaxian Celestial Venerable."
Red Lotus Celestial Venerable and the other peak Celestial Venerables couldn’t help but show respect in their tones.
Even among Celestial Venerables, there were distinctions. Especially the strongest Celestial Venerables, who were the pinnacle of their tier, were almost untouchable by the majority of Celestial Venerables.
To become the strongest Celestial Venerable, one first had to be a peak Celestial Venerable,. That alone eliminated nine out of ten Celestial Venerables.
Furthermore, one had to master a thirteenth-rank legacy, which wasn’t easy. The thirteenth-rank power was not something to be toyed with, as it came with numerous risks and hidden dangers.
"Ah."
Lin Yuan opened his eyes and looked at Chiyaz Celestial Venerable and the others, smiling, "This massivecore Celestial Pillar is a treasure lost and found again."
Chiyaz Celestial Venerable looked at the towering massivecore Celestial Pillar and smiled. Currently, the Blazing Ancient Nation had occupied and refined fifty-two core Celestial Pillars.
Add this massivecore Celestial Pillar, and it made sixty-two.
Although it still didn’t match the seventy-two core Celestial Pillars of the Great Subjugation Ancient Nation,, it surpassed the Savage Ancient Nation and ranked second among the six major ancient nations.
"Because of the Galaxian Celestial Venerable, the possibility of the Blazing Ancient Nation securing this treasure has greatly increased," Chiyaz Celestial Venerable said with a sigh.
If not for Lin Yuan’s sudden appearance, the Blazing Ancient Nation would have surely joined forces with other ancient nations against the Great Subjugation, and regardless of the outcome, they would have gone through intense battles.
But now?
With Lin Yuan’s strength, the Blazing Ancient Nation had leaped to the same level as the Great Subjugation Ancient Nation, overlooking the other four major ancient nations in their struggles.
"Whether we can secure this treasure or not is still uncertain," Lin Yuan said. At least for now, his strength couldn’t overwhelm all the peak Celestial Venerables within the treasure.
If the Great Subjugation Ancient Nation and the other five ancient nations joined forces, the Subjugation Celestial Venerable and many peak Celestial Venerables could still pose a threat to Lin Yuan.
"Actually, with the Galaxian Celestial Venerable around, whether we can secure this treasure isn’t as important anymore," Chiyaz Celestial Venerable said.
The birth of the strongest Celestial Venerable in the Blazing Ancient Nation had far-reaching implications. At least until the strongest Celestial Venerable hasn’t reached the thirteenth rank, the Blazing Ancient Nation would have a stronger stance against other ancient nations except the Great Subjugation Ancient Nation.
"It’s still better to secure it," Lin Yuan said.
Securing this treasure would not only yield a large amount of precious resources but also earn significant merits from the ancient nation.
Lin Yuan was very eager for the many precious legacies and treasures recorded in the Blazing Ancient Nation’s treasury, unlike many other Celestial Venerables who had accumulated a great deal of merits over long ages.
Lin Yuan was still too young, and despite his strength, he had few merits.
Therefore, Lin Yuan still intended to secure this treasure as much as possible, as the merits gained would be substantial, and the time taken would be far shorter than a full-scale war.
"Right, it’s definitely better to secure it."
Chiyaz Celestial Venerable’s face showed a smile. Who wouldn’t want to secure the treasure? Even if the true use of the golden mist wasn’t clear, it was definitely a good thing.
Somewhere within the treasure.
Twelve peak Celestial Venerables of the Dark Yin Ancient Nation had gathered.
"This time, the Dark Yin Ancient Nation has only occupied and refined thirty-eight core Celestial Pillars, ranking sixth."
Dark Yin Celestial Venerable looked at the other eleven peak Celestial Venerables of the Dark Yin Ancient Nation and shook his head, "There’s the emergence of the strongest Celestial Venerable like the Galaxian Celestial Venerable."
The other eleven peak Celestial Venerables remained silent.
Currently, the Dark Yin Ancient Nation’s hope of securing this treasure was extremely slim,, if not nonexistent.
The nations ranked in the top three or four had a chance to compete, but ranking sixth? Unless the Dark Yin Ancient Nation also had a monster like the Galaxian Celestial Venerable, there was no hope.
"Sigh."
Earth Yin Celestial Venerable sighed.
This treasure contained over three hundred core Celestial Pillars, making it the top-tier treasure among all.
Unfortunately, the Dark Yin Ancient Nation hadn’t given it enough importance, and the peak Celestial Venerables sent here were not strong overall, which was why they had only occupied and refined thirty-eight core Celestial Pillars.
"So, I plan to trade these thirty-eight core Celestial Pillars away."
Dark Yin Celestial Venerable expressed his thought.
Since there was no hope of securing the treasure, it was best to minimize losses and strive for benefits.
The thirty-eight core Celestial Pillars refined by the Dark Yin Ancient Nation, though ranked sixth, would significantly boost the ranking of any of the top five ancient nations if they obtained them, potentially making them the first.
"Dark Yin, who do you plan to trade with?"
Earth Yin Celestial Venerable asked, not surprised by Dark Yin Celestial Venerable’s decision.
The core Celestial Pillars within the treasure had the greatest value only if traded. Otherwise, they would have to withdraw once the results of the competition were clear, gaining nothing.
"The Great Subjugation Ancient Nation and the Blazing Ancient Nation."
Dark Yin Celestial Venerable thought for a moment before replying.
So far, the ones with the best hope of securing this treasure were the Great Subjugation and the Blazing Ancient Nation, given they had the strongest Celestial Venerable.
Nodding, the Earth Yin Celestial Exalted said, "We must take a hefty cut."
"Of course," the Host Yin Celestial Exalted replied with a smile.
Before the Core Pillar, the Host Yin Celestial Exalted quietly condensed, facing the many Great Suppressors guarding the area. "I want to see the Voidless Celestial Exalted," he said.
"See the Voidless Celestial Exalted?"
The Voidplume Celestial Exalted looked at the Host Yin Celestial Exalted and began to contact the Voidless Celestial Exalted. After a moment, the Host Yin Celestial Exalted saw the Voidless Celestial Exalted.
"Host Yin?"
The Voidless Celestial Exalted glanced at the Host Yin Celestial Exalted and asked casually, "What brings you here?"
"I plan to trade the thirty-eight Core Pillars of the Mystic Yin Ancient Kingdom for this treasure land," the Host Yin Celestial Exalted said with a smile.
"Trade?"
The Voidless Celestial Exalted looked at the Host Yin Celestial Exalted. "Giving up so quickly?"
"With you around, it’s clear that the Mystic Yin Ancient Kingdom has no hope of taking this treasure land," the Host Yin Celestial Exalted replied.
"What do you want?"
The Voidless Celestial Exalted got straight to the point. "Even though the Great Suppress Ancient Kingdom still holds the advantage, with the thirty-eight Core Pillars of the Mystic Yin Ancient Kingdom, the odds of success are higher."
"Fifty percent."
The Host Yin Celestial Exalted looked at the Voidless Celestial Exalted. "Out of the trillion years' worth of treasures, you want fifty percent?"
The Voidless Celestial Exalted laughed coldly. "Your Mystic Yin Ancient Kingdom is asking for a lot. Just because you have thirty-eight Core Pillars, you want fifty percent?"
"Just fifty percent for a trillion years, it’s not too much."
At this level, ordinary treasures and rarities hold little value. Only the treasures produced by this new treasure land can be of any significance.
The Mystic Yin Ancient Kingdom has no certainty of taking this treasure land, which is why he made this offer.
"Fifty percent is too much. Only ten percent, and only for a million years," the Voidless Celestial Exalted said.
"That’s too little," the Host Yin Celestial Exalted shook his head.
"Or you can offer other terms," the Voidless Celestial Exalted said. "The Great Suppress Ancient Kingdom holds many treasure lands. Choose another one, and I’ll consider giving you fifty percent of its treasures for a trillion years."
"Only this treasure land."
The Host Yin Celestial Exalted frowned, "A trillion years can’t change, but fifty percent can be reduced to twenty percent. Twenty percent is my bottom line."
"Twenty percent?"
The Voidless Celestial Exalted looked at the Host Yin Celestial Exalted, deep in thought.
At the same time, a manifestation of the Host Yin Celestial Exalted arrived before the massive Core Pillar. "Galactic Celestial Exalted," the Host Yin Celestial Exalted greeted Lin Yuan with a smile.
"Host Yin Celestial ExaltedLin Yuan looked at the Host Yin Celestial Exalted. "I came here to discuss a trade with the Scorching Sun Ancient Kingdom."
The Host Yin Celestial Exalted said, "The Mystic Yin Ancient Kingdom and I together control thirty-eight Core Pillars. Do you know how much these thirty-eight Core Pillars are worth?"
Although another embodiment was negotiating with the Voidless Celestial Exalted, he knew the deal would go to the higher bidder. "What terms?"
Lin Yuan responded immediately. "Eighty percent."
The Host Yin Celestial Exalted looked at Lin Yuan. "If the Scorching Sun Ancient Kingdom takes this treasure land, eighty percent of its treasures for ten trillion years will go to the Mystic Yin Ancient Kingdom."
"Additionally, the Scorching Sun Ancient Kingdom must give me two first-tier treasure lands."
Given the current number of Core Pillars, the Scorching Sun Ancient Kingdom lagged behind the Great Suppress Ancient Kingdom. Thus, the Host Yin Celestial Exalted had more room to negotiate.
Compared to the Great Suppress Ancient Kingdom, the Scorching Sun Ancient Kingdom would be more eager to gain the Mystic Yin Ancient Kingdom’s thirty-eight Core Pillars.
"That’s too much."
Lin Yuan frowned, looking at the Host Yin Celestial Exalted.
Let’s not discuss the second-tier treasure lands for now.
Eighty percent of the treasures for ten trillion years?
Isn’t that saying that in ten trillion years, Lin Yuan would gain little from this treasure land’s treasures?
For the Scorching Sun Ancient Kingdom, this might be acceptable, as ten trillion years isn’t a long time. But for Lin Yuan?
How long has it been since he stepped onto the path of evolution? Ten trillion years? Such a vast span of time, even if Lin Yuan hasn’t reached the Thirteenth Rank, would make any more treasures meaningless to him.
"Not much."
The Host Yin Celestial Exalted smiled at Lin Yuan. "The Great Suppress Ancient Kingdom has already agreed to my terms."
"Galactic Celestial Exalted, you should understand that once the thirty-eight Core Pillars of the Mystic Yin Ancient Kingdom fall into the Great Suppress Ancient Kingdom’s hands, the hopes of the Scorching Sun Ancient Kingdom taking this treasure land will diminish greatly."
"Given the relationship between the Thundering Ancient Kingdom and the Great Suppress Ancient Kingdom, the Thundering Ancient Kingdom’s Core Pillars will definitely fall into the Great Suppress Ancient Kingdom."
"You must think carefully."
The Host Yin Celestial Exalted looked at Lin Yuan, adopting a stance of 'I am considering your interests.'
"Are you threatening me?" Lin Yuan’s eyes narrowed slightly.
"There is no threat, everything is voluntary," the Host Yin Celestial Exalted said with a smile.
