"Fellow Taoist, you don't have to think too much. The reason why Chu did this was because of orders from above."
"Above?" Mo Juren's heart moved. Who is this referring to? The owner of Jinyue Tower, or the 'Nine Heavens Merchant Alliance'? He has no friendship with the two. Even as the leader of the 'Tianhua Business Alliance', there is still a competitive relationship between the two parties. Shouldn't he be so friendly?
"Elder Luo has given instructions before. Therefore, the owner of this building specially gave the order after learning about your needs."
"That's it." Hearing this, Mo Juren suddenly showed a look of surprise. Elder Luo was really thoughtful, and he actually had such an arrangement, which made him feel a little grateful.
Of course, the other party does not give these things away for free, but without the auction link, it will save a lot of money and there is no need to waste time.
He noted the affection and then asked about the specific price. The latter did not hesitate and immediately said a number. There is no further discount in this regard, it is the same as the market price.
Even so, it was much more cost-effective than bidding, and he was not short of spiritual stones. He paid the price directly, declined the other party's offer to stay, and then left.
"Huangyan stone, purple patterned gold... With these materials, the refining of the sixth-level fire-attribute bloodline is basically complete, only the last one or two are not yet available." On the street, Mo Juren was in a good mood at this moment. I came to the auction this time with the intention of competing with others, but I didn't expect it to go so smoothly.
After continuously collecting materials over the years, the harvest is still considerable, especially in Tianhua Building. Not only the main store, but also hundreds of branches in other countries, you can also access resources, but you only need to spend spiritual stones.
In addition to Tianhua Tower, he himself is also constantly collecting, and even asked Nangong Wan for help. Coupled with the ones he bought in the Sea of Stars, he actually doesn't have many resources that he lacks now.
The bad ones are just some extremely rare types.
He didn't feel too anxious, just take his time. After all, the water attribute bloodline had already reached the sixth level of perfection, and it would not affect his cultivation.
Putting away his thoughts, he walked straight towards Wanfu Palace without any further delay.
…
The war situation is constantly changing, and overall it is still not very optimistic.
The Mulan people's offensive was as fierce as ever, and they had even occupied all three countries on the border, and now they had entered the territory of Yu State.
Not to be outdone, the Nine-Nation Alliance fully mobilized its own power, coupled with the support of the three major forces behind it, to block attacks on the front line, doing everything possible to delay the opponent's steps.
The results were also remarkable. The Mulan people were originally so unstoppable that their plan to capture the Nine Nations Alliance in a short time failed, and their attack speed also slowed down from the original rush.
The two sides even went back and forth near the Huanglong Mountains on the border of Yu State, constantly pulling each other back and forth, causing a large number of casualties.
Among them, not only the monks in the Core Formation Stage, but also the monks in the Foundation Establishment Stage and the powerful ones in the Nascent Soul Stage have also come to an end.
After all, it's not a fight between good and evil, and each has its own concerns. Facing the Mulan people, neither side needs any bottom line. As long as it can kill the enemy, they can use any means.
This is also the fundamental reason why the number of casualties between the two sides remains high.
Although Mo Juren was at the rear, he was always paying attention to the situation on the front line. Judging from the current situation, the two sides may continue to be in a stalemate in the Yu State border area.
This is not good news, because the intensity of the war is too high and the casualties are too high. Even if the Nine Nations Alliance has the support of the three major forces, it is not willing to continue to spend so much.
The Mulan people were better, because they were much stronger, and they were unexpected when the war started, and they achieved great results. Now the morale is even higher.
There were even rumors that the Mulan people saw hope of further expanding their victory and planned to dispatch a divine master.
The authenticity of the news is uncertain, but once it is true, the scale of the war will definitely escalate again, and the great monk from the Nine Nations Alliance will have to show up.
An episode also occurred during this period. Elder Luo once again sent someone to discuss with him whether the production of intermediate spiritual talismans could be increased.
Countless times of practice on the front line have proven that the intermediate spiritual talisman refined by Mo Juren is very powerful and has an immeasurable effect in the competition between monks below the elixir formation stage.
Just like the most powerful group attack type 'Feathered Blade Storm Talisman', once it is fired, the feathered blades are overwhelming, and a large number of disciples in the Foundation Establishment Stage will die or be disabled instantly. Even those in the Pill Formation Stage do not dare to face its sharp edge.
Others, such as 'Deep Sea Tide', 'Poisonous Flame', 'Dead Tree Rejuvenation', etc., cannot be underestimated, and have almost become a nightmare for the bottom disciples of the Mulan people.
This really made the top management of the Nine Nations Alliance extremely happy, so Elder Luo asked. After all, Mo Juren only makes talismans during the day and rests at night, so it shouldn't be difficult to increase production.
The Nine Nations Alliance also promised that all the talismans he refines in the future will be purchased at normal market prices, so that his efforts will not be in vain.
The price of intermediate spiritual talismans is not cheap. Ordinary ones cost upwards of one hundred spiritual stones. The ones refined by Mo Juren are all the best among the best. The average price in various branches of Tianhua Building is between two hundred and five hundred. between.
The Nine Nations Alliance dares to make such a promise, which shows that they are really optimistic about it.
You know, Elder Luo initially only promised to give away a 'Taiyin Black Stone' after the war, and the talisman refined during the period was just a token payment for some hard work.
It's a pity that things like spiritual stones really can't arouse Mo Juren's desire. Furthermore, he didn't want to change his low-key plan just for this little spiritual stone.
More than thirty mid-level magic talismans every day are conspicuous enough, but any more may cause unnecessary trouble.
He politely refused the other party and said that this was already his limit. Every night was the time for him to cultivate his mind and restore his mana, otherwise it would affect the refining the next day.
The upper echelons of the Nine Nations Alliance are a little doubtful, but apart from talking about mana, things like mind are indeed uncertain. Maybe he is really tired and needs some proper relaxation.
In short, this matter can only be left alone. However, given that the spiritual talismans he refined played a great role, the superiors did not take back their previous promises. All the spiritual talismans he refined would be purchased at market prices.
There are more than 30 intermediate spiritual talismans every day, and most of them are high-quality, which is equivalent to an income of more than 10,000 spiritual stones every day. As for the cost, except for the consumption of one's own mind and mana, there is basically no cost.
Therefore, selling talismans is an absolute huge profit.
Mo Juren was naturally very happy. Even though his net worth at this time had already reached tens of millions, it was still not too much. The dividends from the franchise stores have disappeared, and Tianhualou's profits have become normal. Why not make more if you can.
In the following time, he kept repeating the same thing, refining talismans, inquiring about information, etc.
Time passed slowly, and three months had passed before I knew it.
After a long period of fierce fighting, the Nine Nations Alliance could no longer hold on. The casualties are really too heavy. If we don't think of a way out, even if we can win in the end, our vitality will be severely damaged.
This is not what the Nine Nations Alliance wants to see. If its strength is greatly reduced after the war, how can it resist the Mulan people in the future, and how can it gain a foothold in Tiannan? These are all things that require careful consideration.
As a result, they can only continue to ask for help from the three major forces behind them. Facing the Mulan people, the four major forces in Tiannan are prosperous and declining, so naturally they should work together.
The Nine Nations Alliance did the same thing, and the three major forces also understood the pros and cons. Therefore, the second batch of supporting forces had already set off and arrived in Tiantian City one after another.
However, the subsequent changes in the situation shocked countless people.
Now that we have support, we should be able to continue the stalemate, but we never thought that the border defense line would suddenly collapse. Although countless monks on the front line were still resisting, they were also retreating rapidly, faintly gathering towards Tiantian City.
Looking at this situation, I am afraid that the Mulan people will attack soon, and it is difficult to predict what will happen in the end.
For a time, some people in the city couldn't help but feel panic, and there were a lot of discussions everywhere.
"Is it about to start?" In a private room somewhere in the restaurant, Mo Juren raised his head to the sky outside the window and couldn't help but sigh.
The monk at the bottom didn't know why the border defense line collapsed, but he had some vague guesses that this must be done deliberately by the upper echelons of the Nine Nations Alliance.
Firstly, after months of repeated back and forth, the Nine-Nation Alliance really couldn't hold on; secondly, it didn't want to continue this stalemate that would hurt both sides, and planned to attract the enemy to Tiantian City for a final decisive battle.
The Mulan people must have guessed this, as their casualties were also considerable.
Therefore, they do not want to see a protracted war, and other forces in Tiannan have begun to send support. Although they are reluctant, the number of reinforcements given is not large, but it is a bad sign.
If it drags on for a long time, there is no guarantee that the other three major forces will not change their minds and actively support the Nine-Nation Alliance.
That would be really bad. At that time, even if most of the clan's strength is brought together, victory may not be possible.
Time is of the essence, and since the other party wants a decisive battle, it just suits the Mulan people's wishes and holds a decisive battle under Tiantian City.
It doesn't matter if you fail, anyway, the harvest this time is already quite big.
And if they were lucky enough to succeed and attack Tiantian City, the headquarters of the Nine-Nation Alliance, the results would be huge.
Therefore, even though he knew the Nine Nations Alliance's plan, he took advantage of it and continued to pursue it fiercely. The three major tribes and tens of thousands of monks gradually gathered together, heading towards Tiantian City like a wind and lingering clouds.
It won't be long before a massive battle involving tens of thousands of people will begin outside the city, and it will be extremely tragic.
However, Mo Juren did not show any panic. Knowing the answer in advance, he naturally knew that the Mulan people could not win this time, and even ended up being defeated.
He didn't know why he was defeated, but the result was good.
What's more, as a talisman master, his best position is in the Ten Thousand Talisman Palace, which belongs to the logistics. Refining enough high-quality talismans before the decisive battle will play a greater role than going out to fight.
In this kind of large-scale battle involving tens of thousands of people, he was a monk in the early stage of forming pills. No matter how strong his individual strength was, there was no limit. On the contrary, refining a large number of spiritual talismans could have a certain impact on the battle situation.
While he was thinking, suddenly, a familiar figure suddenly appeared in his sight, which instantly aroused his mood. It was none other than Mo Xiaosheng, who escaped from him in the past.
Speaking of which, this member of the family is no ordinary Gou. After the original battle, the opponent disappeared for many years, making it impossible for him to find him. What's even more helpless is that because it took too long, the mark originally placed on the other party also disappeared.
Unexpectedly, after trying hard to find no place, it took no effort to get it, but the other party actually took the initiative to deliver it to my door.
This is Tiantian City, which belongs to the sphere of influence of the Nine Kingdoms Alliance. Wouldn't it be perfect to take this opportunity to kill it secretly? He does it more covertly, so that no one is aware of it, and no one else can suspect him.
As for letting go? That's impossible. He killed three brothers. Such a big hatred can never be resolved. If he doesn't take action today, the other party will do it tomorrow.
This was a knot that couldn't be undone, and he could only feel at ease by completely eradicating the roots.
For a moment, the thoughts in his mind began to spin rapidly.
…
Somewhere on the street, Mo Xiaosheng, who was slowly walking forward with several of his classmates, suddenly paused and looked around for a moment, a trace of doubt flashing in his eyes.
Somehow, at that moment, he felt a sudden surge of emotion in his heart for no apparent reason, which made him feel a chill in his heart.
"Uncle Mo, what's wrong?" A voice asked from beside him. It was a young girl with beautiful appearance and extremely elegant dress, but she exuded a bookish atmosphere from the inside out.
The woman's cultivation is only in the late stage of foundation building. However, facing the leader Mo Xiaosheng, she is neither humble nor arrogant, and her words, deeds and actions show a dignified and generous temperament.
In comparison, the other disciples who were following him were far behind. They had long been fascinated by the bustling city and kept looking around.
"It's okay, maybe I'm a little tired from traveling non-stop for days." Mo Xiaosheng came back to his senses and said with a smile. However, the vigilance in his heart did not dissipate.
My heart is inexplicable, this is obviously not normal, and it is very likely that I will encounter some great danger.
After thinking about it again, the current situation is not very optimistic. As one of the supports sent by Haoran Pavilion, it is certain to participate in the war. Especially in such a large-scale war, life and death are really unpredictable.
"Tired?" Upon hearing this answer, the girl couldn't help but be startled. She doesn't feel tired even as a foundation-building monk. How can a mid-stage pill-building monk like her uncle feel tired?
"I still have some private matters to deal with, so you will take them to the meeting hall to report, and then we will gather at the sect's contact point."
"Disciple, obey."
After saying that, the two parties separated, and Mo Xiaosheng turned around and walked quickly towards another street.
What he didn't notice was that a gleam of light suddenly shot out from a distance and quietly penetrated his body.
Wanxian Tower, elegant room.
Looking at the other person's figure gradually moving away, Mo Juren carefully felt the location of the mark, and then showed a satisfied smile.
The people in Tiantian City are many and have many eyes, and there are countless powerful people in charge, so it is naturally impossible for him to take action. However, as long as you wait patiently, there is always an opportunity.
He put away his thoughts and was about to leave the restaurant when he suddenly sensed something.
With a wave of his hand, a communication token appeared. After it was activated, Hanzhuo's familiar voice sounded.
"Go to the sect gathering place immediately."
"?" Putting away the token, Mo Juren's heart moved and he suddenly called himself over. It's not the other party's residence. Does the sect have any arrangements?
…
