Chapter 136: Bargaining
When Zou Jun ascended the throne of "Head of the Altar", the surrounding large and small cultivating forces and the traditional friendly forces in the cultivating world sent high-level delegations to visit to watch the ceremony. Because the specifications were too high, people thought whether there was fraud in it.
?According to past practice, each medium-level cultivation force only needs to send out those who are of the true elixir stage or above and have a decisive position in the sect, rather than having the leaders of each sect personally do it. Moreover, it is purely a coincidence that it is so consistent as if it has been negotiated?
"The heads of all factions have come here to make our Black Dragon Altar shine!" Zou Jun led the guests into the meeting hall with their heads held high, and then swore an oath according to the operating procedures prepared by the emcees in advance:
"Thanks to the protection of the ancestor of the sect and the care of all the colleagues in the sect, today is my honor to ascend to the throne for the first time. Thanks to the elders in the sect for taking care of me! I hereby swear to God that I will do my best in my lifetime to push the strength of my Black Dragon Altar to the next level.
Floors!"
"Thank you, Master! Master is wise!" Under the leadership of the masters of ceremonies, the management of Black Dragon Altar swore to God: "We, the disciples of Black Dragon Altar, will definitely abide by the ancestral precepts, obey the master, practice hard, glorify our ancestors, and reach the path of immortality as soon as possible.
I will never live up to the nurturing grace of the Black Dragon Altar! If you violate this oath, five thunders will strike from heaven, and your soul will dissipate as a result of divine punishment, and you will never be reincarnated again!" As soon as he finished speaking, the atmosphere in the entire meeting hall became extremely serious and unusual.
Suppress it.
"Now, the Council of Elders will grant the new leader Zou Jun the status of 'Altar Master'." As soon as the master of ceremonies finished speaking, all kinds of lights suddenly flashed in the hall, and the five Nascent Soul stage elders of the Black Dragon Altar appeared one after another.
Together they hit a magic spell somewhere in the void. After a few breaths, a dazzling golden light appeared out of thin air. After it converged, it turned into a simple golden crown in the style of a five-clawed golden dragon. It was none other than the leader of the altar, Liu Yishou, who usually wore it.
The "Black Dragon Golden Crown" on the head.
"When the golden crown comes out, the leader will be determined. If you put on the black dragon golden crown, you will be the leader of my sect!" Several Yuanying elders said in unison: "Senior nephew Zou Jun, please perform the crowning ceremony!" As soon as he finished speaking, he flicked his fingers and used a magic formula.
Press, the golden crown will fly over automatically.
Seeing this, Zou Jun quickly waved his sleeves and released a burst of magic power to catch the golden crown. However, the golden crown flashed away like a spirit and disappeared into thin air. When it reappeared, it was automatically placed on Zou Jun's head as firmly as a mountain.
.
Everyone was dumbfounded and bowed their heads one after another. Under the pressure of Mu Mu exuded by the Black Dragon Golden Crown, even the heads of the large and small foreign sects who came to watch the ceremony had a strange feeling of looking up at the mountain.
.
"Please ask the new head of the altar, Mr. Zou, to personally offer incense to the founder of our sect, the Black Dragon True Master!" As soon as he finished speaking, there was a sudden sound from the screen behind the head of the altar in the center of the meeting hall.
After the sound of the linkage, a strange statue with a lifelike black dragon head and human body slid out automatically. Everyone took a closer look and found that there was an obvious scar on the dragon head of the tall statue, as if it had been stabbed by a sharp blade or a sharp spear, but its hands were
It turned into a dragon's claws and opened wide.
This statue was so weird that it immediately aroused the curiosity of everyone present. However, when the five Nascent Soul elders saw this, they shouted softly: "You must not be unreasonable against the holy statue of the founder of the Kaisong! Why don't you hurry up and use the soul of the ancestor to
Light the lamp and offer incense?"
"Ancestor Soul Lamp?" After hearing this, Zou Jun felt full of doubts in his heart, because he had tried the "Soul Lamp" before and the fire was "Soul Fire", which only emitted light but did not generate heat. Although it was closely related to the main soul of the body, it could not
It's about igniting foreign objects.
"Use three strands of his soul to infiltrate these three incense sticks, and you can use the 'soul lamp' to light the incense. From then on, his soul was protected by the ancestor, and his luck was shared with the ancestor. The road to cultivation will be smooth sailing, and the future will be smooth.
It’s not bad to stand shoulder to shoulder with the ancestor!” After hearing this, Zou Jun quickly followed the instructions and lit up the incense with the help of the soul lamp, completing the last step of the inauguration ceremony. “Okay, the inauguration ceremony of the new head of our sect is over.
, From now on, all matters within the sect will be decided by the leader."
As soon as the words fell, the five Yuanying elders disappeared into the hall again, just like when they came, the dragon disappeared without a trace. However, after lighting the incense, the black dragon-man statue of the founder of the founding sect shrank again amidst the sound of the machine.
After returning to the screen, it was as if nothing had happened. Everyone present was stunned and confused. However, Zou Jun vaguely felt that a mysterious power from the upper world was slowly coming from the air and slowly gathering.
on top of one's head.
After Zou Jun released his spiritual consciousness to investigate carefully, he found nothing, and the vague perception seemed to have disappeared. However, Zou Jun firmly believed that his intuition was right, and he would slowly go to the Qi Ling Doll when he had time.
Just ask for advice.
"Everyone is here, our sect is in full glory! Please take a seat and try our newly produced 'Plateau Barley Wine' first. This wine is delicious and sweet, slightly sour and spicy. It melts in your mouth and is full of spiritual energy. It is far from the best."
Ordinary spiritual tea can be compared with it! To use an old saying from the ancient Eastern countries in the lower world, it is: 'When friends come, there is good wine; when wolves come, there are shotguns.' Haha, if you don't believe it, just drink a bucket of it.
You will definitely feel that your cultivation has improved significantly."
The people who came to watch the ceremony were all heads of various sects or powerful figures. They were originally curious about the mystery of Zou Jun's inauguration ceremony, but now they would bring wine and tea. This is completely contrary to the uniformity among sects in the world of cultivation.
It was a routine for social interactions. Therefore, many people frowned, as if they looked down on the other party: he was indeed a mountain villager from the lower world who did not understand etiquette! However, since it was difficult to refuse the hospitality, and it was difficult to offend the host's good intentions, he had to do it reluctantly.
.
However, after taking one bite, it was as slightly sour and spicy as Zou Jun said, and it melted in the mouth. Suddenly, a stream of pure spiritual energy rushed straight to the Baihui point on the top of the head, making people feel refreshed and even immersed.
The inner essence in the limbs and bones also automatically cheered, and it seemed that with a little more strength, it could move uncontrollably along the meridians of the body. This discovery immediately made everyone ecstatic, and they all signaled to wait for them.
The maids beside him continued to pour wine.
When Zou Jun saw this, he smiled and said nothing. He just snickered secretly in his heart, because this "plateau barley wine" sounded unknown and could easily be mistaken for a mortal wine. In fact, it was an idea he had while refining elixirs.
It can not only quench thirst and satisfy hunger but also restore spiritual power. It is like a "liquid elixir". Although it is not of high quality, it is comparable to the effect of the best elixir. Of course, it is wine that is the third poison, just like the above
It's just a trace of impurities that haven't been removed from the elixir.
"Haha, I didn't expect that your sect has such a fine wine? Can you let me have another cup?" The silver-robed head of the Tianshan Divine Sword Sect, a red-faced old man with white eyebrows and white beard, said loudly with his bull eyes open: "I am addicted to wine, but let you guys
What a joke."
"Where is it? Fellow Taoist Shenjian is so polite. This wine is meant for drinking. Since fellow Taoist likes it, the more the merrier, keep serving the wine!" Seeing this, Zou Jun chuckled and said, "I wonder what you guys think of this wine?
hehe."
"Wonderful! Although this wine is not well-known, it tastes as good as jade liquid and fine wine. It suits my taste very well. Haha. I wonder, fellow Taoist Zou, can you give me another cup? Hehe." Head of the Five Elements Fierce Fire Sect.
The sect leader smiled.
Zou Jun took a quick look and found that the other person was an old man with red robes and red beard, with a high nose, deep eyes, and beard. He laughed and said, "When friends come, they have good wine. That's how it should be. Take care of it and serve it!" As soon as the maid finished speaking, the maid
Hurry up and pour the wine.
"Hey, since even fellow Taoist Liehuo prefers this wine, how about I, the master of the palace, join us and ask for another cup? Fellow Taoist Zou, oh no, according to the practice of the cultivation world, you should be called 'fellow Taoist Black Dragon' on formal occasions?"
how?"
"Haha, that's easy to say. Since Taoist fellow Liehuo and fellow Taoist Yiqi both like this wine, I can't help but ask for it! Serve the wine!" As soon as Zou Jun finished speaking, the maid standing aside picked up the magical wine pot and went forward to pour the wine.
Make everyone stare.
"Well, this wine is not bad, it tastes good. Give me a glass too... Well, not bad, give me a glass too... I want it too... I want it too..." At this moment, I saw
The four cultivation sects established by the demon clan, the Valley Master of the Yuanyang Butterfly Valley, the Master of the Bottomless Cave of the Abyss, the Master of the Carp Jumping Dragon Sect, and the Master of Fengming Qishan Mountain all expressed their concern for this drinking.
Du Zhong asked for another cup. So, Zou Jun laughed and agreed one after another and continued drinking.
While pouring the wine, Zou Jun took a closer look and saw that the master of Yiqi Huasheng Palace, who should have a good relationship with the leader of the Five Elements Fierce Fire Sect, was actually a middle-aged man in green robes, with a daoji haircut and a clear face.
, with three strands of long beard hanging straight down his chest, making a bow with his left hand, holding a whisk in his right hand, a pair of bright vertical pupils bursting with blue light, obviously he has practiced some kind of powerful pupil technique. Compared with the two good wines before,
This person's cultivation level at the peak elixir stage is slightly inferior, and he is only at the late stage of the true elixir stage.
At this time, Zou Jun took another look at the four demon clan leaders and felt that they looked strange. They were a young woman with green hair, red eyebrows and golden eyes, wearing a colorful feather coat with mandarin ducks and butterflies tattooed on both cheeks.
A wretched old man in a gray robe with a long tail and a huge rat head, a fish-headed man in golden armor with a wide body and a fat body and a muddy voice, and a man in a colorful long dress with hundreds of birds facing the phoenix.
The tall and thin woman with a hosta-patterned face and beak was almost stunned!
Despite this, except for the master of Yuanyang Butterfly Valley who is slightly lower in the late stage of Zhendan, the rest of the masters of the Abyss Bottomless Cave, the master of Carp Jumping Dragon Sect and the master of Fengming Qishan's Master Mountain have a cultivation level
They have all reached the Great Perfection of the late stage of the true elixir. Compared with Zou Jun’s senior brother, Liu Yishou, the former head of the Black Dragon Altar, he did not give in much. However, these demon cultivators are straightforward and not as showy as the human cultivators.
Sometimes the credibility is higher.
"How about this wine? If you think it tastes good, please add more. I'll take care of it here, hehe." Zou Jun glanced at everyone and said with a smile: "If you think it's almost done, then let's get down to business. I believe you fellow Taoists
You will never come to my Black Dragon Altar to 'observe the ceremony' with just a pair of eyes. If your sects have any interests or information that you want to exchange with this sect, please speak respectfully, and we will assess the situation and give you a reply.
please."
"Haha, fellow Taoist Black Dragon is really quick to talk! If that's the case, then I'm not polite." As soon as he finished speaking, an old man with a bright head wearing a white robe and stern eyebrows stood up immediately, accusing him indignantly: "Dare you ask Black Dragon?
Fellow Taoist, what is the reason for your sect to export a large amount of low-priced elixirs to the outside world, which has destroyed the family fortune accumulated by my Nine Transformations Immortal Hall for thousands of years?
A reasonable statement, otherwise, hehe."
"Otherwise, what if you want to use violence? If you insist on doing this, then I will accompany you to the end!" Zou Jun is not afraid of being threatened. As long as the vital interests of himself and the sect are infringed, he must come forward.
!
"Everyone, don't get excited. If you have something to say, talk it over! Talk it over, hehe." As soon as he finished speaking, it turned out that the head of Xuanfu Miaolu Pavilion, who was sitting next to the old man, saw that the situation was not good and quickly came out to smooth things over. Zou Jun took a closer look: It turns out that
He was a handsome young man wearing a purple robe, with his hair tied up in a crown, a mark between his eyebrows, and a slender figure. Zou Jun discovered that this pavilion master was not very old, but his cultivation level had reached the peak of the true elixir like an old man, so he
He smiled and sat back in his seat.
"Fellow Taoist Talisman, what are you doing? Have you forgotten that the talisman business that your Xuanfu Miaolu Pavilion is proud of has also been impacted by the large number of talismans produced by the Black Dragon Altar?" said the head of the Nine-turn Immortal Pill Hall.
The Lord asked with a puzzled look on his face.
"Haha, business competition is inevitable. The key is to see how consumers choose the products that suit them. How can this be the case for our 'Holy Cult'? Humph!" At this moment, he never took the initiative to show his true colors to others.
The leader of the Southern Barbarian Five Poison Sect finally took off the black cloak covering himself, and saw a skinny, sallow face like a zombie revealed in front of everyone: sunken eyes, prominent cheekbones, and a bridged nose.
His mouth was slumped, his teeth were bared, and a pair of gray eyes were shining brightly. After taking a look at everyone, he once again covered his head with a wide black cloak, and said lazily in a hoarse voice: "I am the product of the Holy Religion."
Aren’t some magic weapons and magic weapons also unsaleable?”
"Hmph! Fellow Taoist Five Poisons makes it easy. Your sect has never made a living by refining weapons. How can you understand the difficulties of my alchemy sect?" The head of the Nine-turn Immortal Pill Hall had a pair of gray eyes.
Sishe glanced at Zou Jun and said: "The elixirs produced by Black Dragon Altar must either increase the price or reduce production immediately, so as to balance the supply and demand price of elixirs in the world of cultivation!" As soon as the words fell, everyone was shocked, especially Zou Jun looked at each other.
He was jumping up and down like he was looking at a corpse.
"Haha, fellow Taoist, you are joking. This is not how bargaining works. All transactions must be guided by market supply and demand! If fellow Taoist feels that it is meaningless to continue the discussion, then please take it back. I will not give it away!" Zou Jun got out.
Expulsion order.
Chapter completed!
