Swallowed Star: Primordial Artifact

Chapter 185 Purchase of Golden Armor
Listening to King Jiujian's warning, Jiang Ye stood there, his aura calm and restrained, his eyes fixed firmly on the golden armor in front of him, unmoved.

The golden armor hung quietly in the air, emitting a cold and mysterious luster.

Seeing this, King Jiujian on the side frowned, his face full of anxiety and disbelief, and he said repeatedly: "No way! Huang, do you really want to buy this armor?" As he spoke, he took a step forward and gestured in the air with his hands, trying to make Jiang Ye change his mind.

"I remind you that the Black Phoenix King bought this set of golden armor back then." King Jiuzhen looked solemn and lowered his voice unconsciously. "In order to adapt to the golden armor, she changed her body shape, condensed a divine body to wear the golden armor, and even spent a lot of money to specially make a mask to match the golden armor."

As he spoke, a trace of reminiscence flashed in his eyes, as if he could see everything the Black Phoenix King had paid for this set of golden armor.

"But what's the result?"

"In the secret realm of the universe, she encountered a strong alien. Because of the change in the size of her immortal body, the Black Phoenix Queen's own strength was greatly weakened. The alien's strength was far superior to hers. After several exchanges, he keenly noticed that her mask was a weakness. After all, the mask was not as magical as the golden armor. The mask could only weaken the soul attack by 15%."

"The enemy's soul attack penetrated along the Black Phoenix King's face."

"After a great battle, the Black Phoenix King was completely destroyed! He couldn't even be resurrected."

King Jiuchen shook his head. "You should know that the scariest among the king-level warriors are those who are good at soul attacks. Soul attacks are inherently ethereal and fast, and can penetrate any part of the body. As long as there is a slight weakness in the body, no matter how good the defense of other parts is, it will be useless. The golden armor is ineffective against soul attacks, and it also makes the user change his immortal body to adapt to it, thus weakening his strength. It can be said that it is tasteless to eat and a pity to throw away."

“If the price is cheap, 5 million or 6 million Hun Yuan units, I’ll buy it.” King Jiu said, crossing his arms and shaking his head slightly, “But 50 billion Hun Yuan units… is enough to make any powerful king feel bad and reluctant to spend it on such an item.”

"For countless years, after a few unlucky souls died, no one was stupid enough to buy it anymore." King Jiuzhen continued, "But it's strange... This golden armor has been lost several times and changed hands several times. It has also been to the enemy camp and has fallen into the hands of our Hongmeng several times. But our Hongmeng always sets the price at 50 billion Hunyuan units. Logically, if it can't be sold for a long time, it means that the price positioning is wrong and the price should be reduced, but it has always maintained the price of 50 billion Hunyuan units. Oh... When this set of golden armor first appeared, the price was 500 billion. After the first user died, the price was reduced to 50 billion. For countless years, the offer price has remained at 50 billion."

"Almost resold?" Jiang Ye asked in confusion, "Yubaotang shouldn't only have this set of golden armor, right?"

"There are three sets in total."

King Jiu Xian said, "But this set with cracks is the one I sold to the Black Phoenix King back then. I know that Black Phoenix King."

"Ah."

Jiang Ye nodded and took a closer look at the golden armor.

Can it weaken both physical attacks and spiritual attacks at the same time?
Unable to change size and body shape is completely solidified?

Unable to integrate into the body?

Yan Shen Clan?
"That's it!" Jiang Ye was extremely sure based on these four points, "This is the King Armor that is higher than the 'Soldier Armor' and 'General Armor'."

"Cannot be integrated into the body? Humph, how can someone who has not practiced the Nine Tribulations Secret Codex integrate this armor, general armor, and king armor into the body?"

"Can't change the size? As long as the Qiankun Ding is transformed, everything will be fine."

"Three sets of golden armor. I guess if I buy this one, Luo Feng will probably buy one next. The son of destiny, wow." Jiang Ye said secretly.

According to the normal operating rules of the original universe, except for some special lives that go against the will of heaven, the gap between a realm master and a king is like an insurmountable chasm. The one who can rival them is already an unparalleled genius, and it is impossible to kill them.

The reason why Luo Feng was able to easily kill King Feng at the Realm Master level was because

Although the treasure given by the Lord of Chaos City, Shi Wu Yuyi, is one thing, its importance to him is far less than the "Nine Tribulations Secret Book" and the sub-armor bred from the Tribulations Armor - the "General Armor".

Because these two things improved his own combat power. The general armor increased Luo Feng's strength of the realm master ten thousand times out of thin air, making up for the biggest difference between him and the immortal strongman.

And the defense effect against attacks also increases survivability.

General Armor!

This is the main reason why Luo Feng has the power to be crowned as a king. After all, just the comprehension of the law... Luo Feng is only at the 18th level with the "Beast God Realm". He is far behind Ke Di's 2th level. But relying on the general armor... he has an extremely strong combat power.

Combined with the peak skills he created by killing Wu Yuyi, he could easily kill a peak Fenghou. He even killed a primary Fengwang with the Fire God Source Crystal.

If it weren't for the nameless secret book and the general armor...

It is also the combat power of a marquis.

"Going against the rules of the original universe, he is worthy of being the reincarnated God King, the Hermit! Really amazing!" Jiang Ye said secretly.

"King Jiuxie." Jiang Ye said.

"Hmm?" King Jiuxun looked at Jiang Ye in confusion.

"Please help me with something." Jiang Ye raised the corner of his mouth slightly, revealing a smile, and then walked out of the shop with King Jiuxun.

……

If you want to buy golden armor, you need 50 billion Hunyuan units!
Fortunately, it was only 50 billion, so he didn't have to sell the "Inheritance Crystal" at a low price. Although he didn't know how much the Soul Nightmare God Envoy Inheritance Crystal could sell for, it was definitely more expensive than those spoils of war. Besides, Jiang Ye had an idea and wanted to test it out.

Although he was not selling the Soul Nightmare Inheritance Crystal, the large number of items left behind by the alien race... Jiang Ye had to be serious and try to sell them at a high price.

Those spoils... Jiang Ye would have to spend about 96 billion points to buy them at his low discount. Of course, those powerful kings could not enjoy such a low discount. Jiang Ye was the disciple of the Lord of Chaos City, so he had such a discount. The Virtual Universe Company made very little from Jiang Ye.

……

After spending a day and a half, Jiang Ye finally sold all the spoils.

He first inquired about the price through Virtual Universe Company, who was willing to buy the unit for 126 billion yuan.

Then I asked for prices at some stores in Hongmeng City, and those stores were also willing to purchase some items. The highest purchase price among the stores was 128 billion mixed yuan units.

In comparison, it is still more cost-effective to sell retail!
King Jiuxun enthusiastically took Jiang Ye and first asked for prices in his own residential area. King Jiuxun had extensive connections, and his friends came to help, so the news quickly spread in the social circle of Hongmeng City.

After a busy period, all the spoils were finally sold successfully at a price of 132 billion Hunyuan units.

"If I exchange treasures at the Virtual Universe Company and then sell them in Hongmeng City, wouldn't I make money? Unfortunately... the Virtual Universe Company has long issued strict orders not only to me, but also to those core members of the Original Secret Realm, prohibiting them from selling items." Jiang Ye sighed secretly. The Virtual Universe Company was only training them and they didn't expect to make much more money.

That's why the price is low.

...A day and a half passed in a flash.

After saying goodbye to King Jiu, Jiang Ye walked towards Yubao Hall alone. He deliberately chose a time when there were no other guests in Yubao Hall.

This shop, which is well-known in Hongmeng City, is usually deserted. After all, the treasures in the shop are expensive, and the king-level masters probably have to accumulate wealth for countless years to purchase one. Although there are more than 300 million king-level masters in the entire Hongmeng City, only a few people come to Yubaotang every day. Most of the time, the shop seems deserted.

"Come here." Jiang Ye stood in the hall with a calm expression, and waved gently to the waiter in the distance.

"Sir, what would you like to buy?" The waiter came over quickly with a smile on his face.

"This golden armor is unique. I bought it." Jiang Ye said calmly, as if 50 billion Hunyuan units were just a trivial number to him.

"Gold...Golden armor?" The waiter's eyes widened, his face full of disbelief. This set of golden armor has been placed in Yubaotang for too long, and no one is interested in it. Someone in Yubaotang has long suggested taking it down or reducing the price, but these suggestions have fallen on deaf ears. The golden armor is still there, and the price has always remained at 50 billion Hunyuan units.

"Sir, please wait a moment." The waiter said hurriedly, then hurried over to call the person in charge of the first floor of Yubaotang.

A moment later, a human woman with golden curly hair and a slim figure walked quickly towards them. On her sleeves, three star marks were shining with mysterious light.

A three-star member, this meant that her strength was at least as strong as that of a king.

The blonde woman had a professional smile on her face, which was as warm as the spring sun, but also had a hint of estrangement. She bowed slightly and said to Jiang Ye, "Dear guest, please follow me inside to discuss in detail."

Jiang Ye nodded slightly and followed the blonde woman into a room at the back of the store.

The room was elegantly decorated, with only Jiang Ye and the blonde woman sitting opposite each other.

"Let me introduce myself. My name is King Canxin, and I'm the deputy head of Yubao Hall." The blonde woman said politely.

Jiang Ye just nodded and said nothing.

"It's rare to meet a customer who wants to buy this set of golden armor." King Canxin said with a smile, with a hint of curiosity and doubt in his smile, "However, I have to remind you that no one who has bought this golden armor in history has gained much benefit. After all, 50 billion Hunyuan units is not a small number..."

Jiang Ye smiled but still said nothing.

50 billion Hunyuan Units might be an unattainable amount of money for other kings, but for him who holds the Qiankun Ding, he has no shortage of money!
"No need to say anything, I know everything about this golden armor, just buy it. In addition to it, I also want to buy these things!" Jiang Ye said, taking out a stack of papers from his arms and handing it to the blonde woman.

Listed above are all treasures that Jiang Ye saw on the first floor that can be used to practice the "Heaven-Swallowing Dragon Armor".

Seeing Jiang Ye's firm attitude, the blonde woman on the other side had a flash of surprise in her eyes, then nodded without saying anything more. She took the stack of papers, lowered her head slightly, and examined it carefully.

"No problem. We will deliver the golden armor and these treasures to you. This is the purchase agreement." King Canxin said, taking out a contract that was emitting a faint light from his sleeve. "The virtual universe system will supervise and both parties will sign. After signing, you will directly remit the money to Yubaotang. If Yubaotang fails to deliver the treasures to you, the funds will be returned in full and we are willing to compensate you tenfold."

Jiang Ye took the agreement, read it carefully, and signed his name without hesitation.

Then, he tapped his fingers lightly, and 132 billion Hunyuan units were instantly transferred into the general account of "Yubaotang".

"I don't want to disclose the information that I bought the golden armor. Your Yubaotang is such a big store, I believe you won't disclose the information of your customers!" Jiang Ye raised his head and said meaningfully.

"Don't worry." The blonde woman answered confidently, "We at Yubaotang have strict confidentiality regulations. Of course, if you leak it yourself, you can't blame us."

Jiang Ye glanced at the blonde woman, then stood up and left.

The blonde woman sat in her original position, watching Jiang Ye's departing back.

After Jiang Ye's figure disappeared, she also disappeared into thin air in the hall, leaving only an empty room, as if everything that had just happened had never happened.

The virtual universe is a separate dimension of space belonging to the Lord of the Universe.

The blonde woman appeared in an endless land of ice and snow. The biting cold wind was howling, blowing up layers of snowflakes.

In the center of this land of ice and snow, there stood an ancient temple. The walls of the temple were engraved with mysterious patterns, exuding an ancient and vicissitudes of life. There was no one in the temple, and on the snowy ground outside the temple, an old man was sitting on the ground.

The old man was dressed in a black robe, with white hair and his face full of traces of time, but it could not conceal the powerful aura emanating from his body, as if he had merged into this world of ice and snow.

"Master." The blonde woman stood in front of the old man and bowed respectfully, with a hint of awe in her voice.

"Oh, is there some big business coming to Yubaotang?" The old man slowly raised his head and looked at the blonde woman. His voice was like an ancient bell, echoing in this empty world of ice and snow.

This old man is the head of Yubao Hall, a cosmic master-level being. Normally, he will only be asked to come forward when there is a huge transaction involved.

"No, Master, it was the golden armor that was bought." said the blonde woman.

"That useless and damaged golden armor?" The old man frowned slightly, with a hint of doubt in his eyes.

"Yes." The blonde said respectfully.

"Who bought it?" the old man asked.

"He didn't reveal his identity. He only left a virtual universe number so that we can contact him to receive the goods." The blonde woman said, "It's difficult to find out his identity through the virtual universe number."

"I don't have the authority to check either." The old man waved his hand and said, "Well, you can leave first."

"Yes."

The blonde disappeared into thin air.

The old man was the only one left on this land of ice and snow. He frowned slightly and looked into the distance, as if thinking about something. "Why does the master value a set of golden armor that costs only 50 billion Hunyuan units and has a very poor effect so much? The master ordered... the price of this golden armor has always been maintained at 50 billion Hunyuan units... If anyone buys it, they must inform the master immediately. Is there really any secret to this golden armor?"

His master...

He is one of the true overlords standing at the top of the top race "human beings" and the true master of Yubaotang.
