Outside the courtyard, there are already many strong monks waiting. These strong monks come in all shapes and sizes, including humans, demons, spirits, ghosts... and nameless ones. The juniors, the heroes of the party, and even the powerful men from well-known families, there are also some people whose identities are hidden, making it difficult for people to see clearly.
Regardless of whether they are strong men or unknown people, at this moment, some of them are exuding a terrifying aura, which makes other monks dare not approach, and some deliberately hide their identities so that no one can perceive their existence at all.
These strong monks came here to apply for jobs. They all wanted to work for Li Qiye and get high-priced rewards from Li Qiye.
Of course, it is unknown what the intentions of these strong monks are. Perhaps, they may sincerely serve Li Qiye and receive high rewards, or it may be that they want to defraud Li Qiye. Counting money, or having ulterior motives and plans.
At this time, many strong monks were discussing in low voices. Some of them were discussing with each other how much they should offer to Li Qiye, or wondering with each other how to speak loudly.
While many monks and strong men were talking about it, Li Qiye walked out accompanied by Xu Yiyun and others.
"Everyone, this is our young master. Please come and select the wise men. Anyone who is interested can submit his request." After Li Qiye sat down, Xu Yiyun said to the strong monks present.
"I only want 300,000 Taoist jade stones every year, and I will be at your disposal, Master." At this moment, a monk couldn't help himself anymore and said loudly.
Another voice sounded and said loudly: "I want a piece of Tianzun's weapon to serve the young master for five years."
"Young Master, look, I am in the realm of the Holy Body of the Great Dao. How much reward do you think I can get?" There are also strong men who do not hide their strength. They release their life palaces and the power of the Great Dao.
"I just want to ask you for some medicinal herbs. You should have this in your inventory." An old man hurriedly spoke and said, "I am willing to give you three years of service in exchange for this medicinal herbs." .”
"There are five hundred people in our Xiaoyi Sect, which borders the Young Master's territory. If the Young Master is willing, the five hundred people in our Xiaoyi Sect are willing to serve the Young Master for five years in exchange for only a corner of the Young Master's territory. What do you think, Young Master?" "There are also small sects that want to exchange land with Li Qiye.
"There are eight senior brothers, known as the Eight Hegemons of Qilian, with thousands of slaves. They are willing to serve the young master. They only ask for a reward of 300 million Dao gems every year..." Suddenly, there were so many strong monks and monks who quoted prices, and each of them made an offer. Quotation.
Li Qiye just sat there quietly, listening to the quotations of these strong monks, his eyes were calm, like flowing water, flowing past the strong monks present.
When many strong monks present shouted that they were done, Li Qiye said slowly: "Okay, don't worry, come one by one."
"Quiet -" At this moment, Xu Yiyun spoke up and let out a deep shout. The sound was like a sharp sword, sweeping across in an instant and quelling the noisy bidding. For a moment, the whole scene fell silent.
At this time, the whole scene became quiet. Many monks looked at me and I looked at you.
"Okay, now who will be the first to make a quotation?" Li Qiye showed a faint smile, with a calm and comfortable expression.
Many monks present looked at each other. Just now, many strong monks shouted their prices loudly, but most of them took the opportunity to make noises or ask for prices.
When it comes to quoting, many people are cautious, especially the strong monks who sincerely want to make money, and they will also consider their prices.
After all, if the asking price is really sky-high, you might really miss the opportunity to make money from Li Qiye.
Therefore, many strong monks are holding the idea of waiting and waiting at this time, waiting for others to quote first, and then weigh their own prices to see if Li Qiye can accept it.
When many monks and strong men were considering and hesitating, a sinister voice sounded, and their laughter was terrifying.
At this time, I saw a shadow appearing on the ground, and heard the sneer of "Jie, Jie, Jie". Then, I heard the sound of "poof" breaking through the ground in everyone's ears. There was a black branch underground. Tree roots burst out of the ground and soil splashed.
The black tree roots that broke out of the ground instantly became entangled, and in the blink of an eye, a tall and powerful monk appeared in front of everyone.
This is a tree demon who comes from a unique race - the tree tribe. He is dressed in black and has tangled branches, which looks very disturbing. The most terrifying thing is that there is a tree hanging on some of the branches on his body. Another skull that makes people's hair stand on end.
"Jie, Jie, Jie..." At this time, the tree demon laughed jeeringly.
"The Black Hand of the Demonic Tree——" Many people exclaimed when they saw the appearance of this tree demon, and many strong monks present also stepped back to keep a sufficient distance from the Blackhand of the Demonic Tree.
"Is the Demon Tree Black Hand the legendary evil man who already possesses the power of the Nine Paths Heavenly Lord?" When a young monk heard the name "Devil Tree Black Hand", his face turned pale.
"Yes, it's him." An older monk said solemnly, "He was also the one who destroyed his sect."
Demonic Tree Black Hand, when the name of this person is mentioned, many people in Jianzhou feel terrified. Although Demonic Tree Blackhand is not the most powerful existence in Jianzhou, he is definitely one of the people who has done the most evil.
Rumor has it that Demon Tree Blackhand was born in a very powerful sect, but later he fell out with the sect and unexpectedly made a surprise attack, killing all the disciples and elders of his sect, and even devoured all the disciples of his sect. , the blood of the elders, refined all the elders and disciples, and monopolized all the wealth of the entire sect.
It can be said that many people were outraged by the evil deeds committed by the Black Hand of the Demon Tree back then.
Later, although some righteous people threatened to kill the Black Hand of the Demon Tree in order to eliminate harm for the world, these righteous people either died tragically in the hands of the Black Hand of the Demon Tree, or because the Black Hand of the Demon Tree had always been alone. In the past, it was because the evil hands of the evil tree remained hidden that the evil hands of the evil tree were always at large and continued to cause harm to the world.
"Jie, Jie, Jie..." At this time, Demon Tree Black Hand sneered sinisterly. He was quite proud to see others talking about him. He sneered at Li Qiye sinisterly and said: "Master Li , I, the Black Hand of the Demon Tree, am also a moral person. If you give me one billion Jin Tianzun Jingbi, I will turn around and leave. From now on, I will not be an enemy of Mr. Li!"
"One billion to buy peace?" After hearing the words of the Demon Tree Black Hand, everyone present couldn't help but burst into an uproar.
Many strong monks came to apply for the job because they wanted to make a lot of money from Li Qiye. Although there were many strong monks who regarded Li Qiye as someone who was taken advantage of.
However, it is not possible to extort money from Li Qiye like the Demon Tree Black Hand. After all, many powerful people still have a good reputation. They still can’t lose their face like the Demon Tree Black Hand who extorts from Li Qiye openly.
What even made the strong monks present take a breath was that the Black Hand of the Demon Tree asked for one billion Jin Tianzun Jingbi to buy Ping An. As the Nine Paths Tianzun, he asked for one billion, which was simply like a lion. He opened his mouth widely, because he may not be able to earn this one billion Jin Tianzun Jingbi in his lifetime.
After a strong monk breaks through the Great Dao Holy Body, there are two paths to take, one is to cultivate the heavenly body, and the other is to build a golden body.
If you build a golden body, you will be a Taoist Lord; if you cultivate a heavenly body, you will be a Heavenly Lord.
There are also differences in the strength of Tianzun, and there are high and low levels of Tianzun, and there is a saying that the ten ways are respected. When Tianzun practices and has ten ways, it is called the perfection of the ten ways.
Therefore, the realm of Heavenly Lord ranges from one Heavenly Lord to ten Heavenly Lords. After the tenth path, it is perfect, and then from low to high, they are Jin Tianzun, Wan Tianzun, Jue Tianzun, and Immortal Tianzun.
As for Demon Tree Black Hand, he has the strength of the Nine Paths Heavenly Lord, which is already very powerful. It can be said that he can sweep across most of Sword Continent. Looking at the entire Sword Continent, there are not many existences stronger than him.
Therefore, when the Black Hand of the Demon Tree stood up, even if he was not a great evil person, with his strength of the Nine Paths Heavenly Lord, he would still be feared.
However, with the strength of the Demonic Tree Black Hand Nine Paths Heavenly Lord, he is now extorting one billion Jin Tianzun Jingbi from Li Qiye. This request is simply too much.
I'm afraid not many great religious countries can afford the billions of Jin Tianzun's jade, let alone an individual. For the sake of this one billion Jin Tianzun jade, I’m afraid there are many great religions and strong monks who are willing to give it a go and fight to the death.
"One billion gold Tianzun jade." Hearing the request from Demon Tree Black Hand, Li Qiye couldn't help but smile and said lightly.
"That's right, one billion Jin Tianzun's jade." Demonic Tree Black Hand Jiejie smiled sinisterly and said: "This one billion Jin Tianzun's jade, to you, it's just a drop in the bucket. It's just a drop in the bucket." It’s a great deal to buy yourself a life with the money, Jie, Jie, Jie..."
The words of Demon Tree Black Hand immediately made many people look at each other. This makes sense. One billion Jin Tianzun Jingbi, for many strong monks, is an astronomical figure, but for Li Qiye, that is It is indeed a drop in the bucket.
After all, in terms of Li Qiye's wealth, even the Daojun Jingbi is counted in the trillions, and the mere Golden Heavenly Jade is out of the question.
"Ideals are very beautiful." Li Qiye smiled and said leisurely: "I can afford this one billion, but I'm afraid you don't have the life to enjoy this one billion."
