Chapter 907: Only recognizes immortal crystals, not people
Lu Chen will issue a special identity jade token to everyone who hands over the fairy crystals.
This jade token is made of an extremely precious material and is engraved with unique marks and formations, which allows the holder to pass through the formation channel smoothly.
Those who try to break in by force will be repelled by the powerful force of the immortal formation, making it impossible for them to enter.
It is worth mentioning that not everyone has no thoughts about the identity jade token in Lu Chen's hand.
After all, if one could kill Lu Chen and take away the jade token, then one could achieve “zero-yuan purchase” and enter the formation without paying any fees.
However, the reality is not that simple.
Because in addition to Ding Haoran, Ruan Wenyu and Cao Ziteng each leading two or three trusted confidants into the formation.
The remaining members of the three families were ordered to protect Cao Yuan, who was Lu Chen in disguise, at all costs.
Therefore, the others who are eyeing the situation covetously are not unwilling to take action, but they dare not.
Seeing more and more cultivators handing in immortal crystals, Lu Chen was ecstatic and couldn't help thinking:
"The fastest way to make money in this world is not to work like a slave."
Just as everyone was entering the ruins, Lu Chen's eyes fell on Ye Qingfeng.
This talented outer disciple of the Yuhua Sect seemed to be hesitant at the moment, and it was obvious that he was dissatisfied with Lu Chen's behavior.
However, in order to obtain more immortal crystals, Lu Chen was also prepared to increase the heat, and immediately pretended to be surprised and said loudly:
"Alas... since no one is coming to collect the jade token, I will take my leave now. If anyone wants to enter the ruins again, they won't have the chance. What a pity."
Hearing this, many people present showed anger and regret.
Ye Qingfeng, Li Changfu and others could tell that Lu Chen's words were a provocation. They all had fierce glares in their eyes, but they could do nothing about him.
However, no matter how angry they were, they could not really give up the remains of Immortal Bi Wuhen.
You know, this is a rare opportunity. If you miss it, you will probably regret it for the rest of your life.
So, despite being angry, many people still came forward to receive the jade tokens.
Seeing this scene, Lu Chen's mouth corners couldn't help but rise slightly, and he was secretly proud in his heart.
"Hehe, they are indeed a bunch of brainless guys. As long as they are slightly provoked, they can't help but take the bait. This way, I can get more immortal crystals."
As time went by, more and more people received jade tokens and entered the ruins.
Those who were still hesitating started to get anxious when they saw everyone else going in.
Those who don't have immortal crystals will borrow from friends, and those who really can't afford them will sell their treasures on the spot. It's really crazy.
Finally, even Ye Qingfeng from the Yuhua Sect and Li Changfu from the Li Family could no longer endure it.
Then, Ye Qingfeng decided not to delay any longer. After all, if he delayed any further, he might not even be able to drink a sip of soup.
However, after Ye Qingfeng took out a storage bag and threw it to Lu Chen, things did not develop as he expected.
Lu Chen did not hand the identity jade card to Ye Qingfeng, but chuckled and said, "Mr. Ye, please be patient. Because your situation is special, you need to pay 30,000 low-grade immortal crystals."
When the monks around heard this, they were all stunned and then began to whisper.
Obviously, this kind of differential treatment shocked and surprised many people. They did not expect that Lu Chen would dare to challenge the Yuhua Sect so blatantly.
Ye Qingfeng's face instantly turned pale when he heard this. He obviously didn't expect Lu Chen to dare to raise the price so blatantly.
However, before he could open his mouth to speak, a fellow disciple stood up and shouted in a cold tone:
"Old man, what do you mean by this? Why did Senior Brother Ye pay twice as much as the others? Don't you think your Cao family will continue to exist in Qingyun Immortal City?"
Facing the threat, Lu Chen didn't care at all. Instead, the corners of his mouth slightly raised, revealing a faint smile, and said in a calm and powerful voice:
"Master Ye, you are a gifted person, unparalleled in the world, how can you be compared with ordinary people?
These mere 30,000 low-grade immortal crystals are nothing more than a drop in the bucket for you.
Also, don’t forget, this is Qingyun Fairyland, and I only recognize fairy crystals and not people.”
As soon as these words were spoken, there was an uproar and everyone present was shocked.
At this moment, Ye Qingfeng's face was extremely gloomy, his hands clenched into fists, and he wished he could slap the old guy to death immediately, but his remaining rationality told him that he should not be so impulsive.
After a long time, Ye Qingfeng sighed slowly, reached out and took out a bulging storage bag from the storage ring. Then, he threw the bag in front of Lu Chen.
"Okay! I'll do it!"
Ye Qingfeng said these three words with gritted teeth, his eyes full of reluctance and anger.
Lu Chen took the storage bag, checked the number of fairy crystals in it with his spiritual sense, and nodded with satisfaction.
Then he took out a jade token from his sleeve and handed it to Ye Qingfeng. "This is your identity jade token, please keep it."
Ye Qingfeng took the jade token and saw Lu Chen's smug face. He was furious, but he didn't say anything more. He turned around and stepped into the formation passage.
As he left, the others present began to discuss the conflict between the Cao family and the Yuhua Sect.
Li Changfu watched all this. He originally thought that Ye Qingfeng would attack Lu Chen aggressively so that he wouldn't have to waste fairy crystals. However, he never thought that Ye Qingfeng would choose to compromise.
At this time, Li Changfu also began to panic. He realized that if he did not take action in time, he might get nothing in the end.
So, Li Changfu finally couldn't hold back anymore, strode forward, and took out a storage bag and threw it to Lu Chen.
However, after Lu Chen checked the immortal crystals in the storage bag, he just said lightly:
"Li Changfu, right? I see that you have a full forehead and a round chin. You are a future pillar of the immortal world. So you will also receive 30,000 lower-grade immortal crystals."
When Li Changfu heard this, his face turned pale instantly, especially after Lu Chen finished speaking, which immediately attracted a burst of laughter from the surrounding monks, and he was even more furious.
The look in his eyes kept changing, but he finally suppressed the anger in his heart.
He took a deep breath, took out a heavy storage bag from his arms, and threw it to Lu Chen fiercely. "Okay! You are so cruel, old man! I will remember this account."
Taking the storage bag, Lu Chen nodded slightly, then took out a jade token emitting a faint glow from his arms and handed it to Li Changfu.
"It's up to you. My Cao family never causes trouble, but we are never afraid of trouble either. We are just afraid that you don't dare to come."
The moment he got the jade token, Li Changfu's expression eased a little, but he still glared at Lu Chen fiercely.
Then he turned around and stepped into the formation passage, not wanting to waste any more words with Lu Chen. In his heart, he had already listed Lu Chen as someone he must kill...
