Transmigrating to a chat group: After heeding advice, I became the ruler of the primordial world.

Chapter 108 Underestimating these old schemers! Lu Yun's countermeasure!

Lu Yun felt a headache coming on.

He could sense that Nuwa truly didn't want him to sell the Primordial Purple Qi.

If he continues to insist on spouting nonsense, Nuwa might actually take action to stop him!

Moreover, Nuwa's intentions were all for his own good, which made him somewhat unsure how to resist.

After all, even if he told Nuwa that there was something wrong with the Primordial Purple Qi, Nuwa probably wouldn't believe him!

And he was unable to prove his claim!

Could it be that he's not going to be able to complete this legendary mission?

Lu Yun was somewhat unwilling.

Fortunately, Lu Yun soon realized that he didn't need to worry about this at all.

Because he discovered that even though Nuwa had stated that anyone who had any improper thoughts about the Primordial Purple Qi would be considered her enemy, the others still looked at Lu Yun with fervent eyes.

After all, how many people in the primordial world could give up the opportunity to become a saint?

Not to mention, many people feel that they are only one strand of Primordial Purple Qi away from becoming saints. Once they obtain Primordial Purple Qi, they may not need to be afraid of Nuwa!

Although they couldn't say anything more in front of Nuwa, they showed no intention of leaving, and even turned their gazes to the other sages.

Seeing this, Nuwa immediately understood that these guys were clearly waiting for the other saints to make a move against her so they could take advantage of the chaos!

This made her secretly angry, yet she was helpless.

She had only spoken up to scare away these quasi-saints and powerful beings before figuring out how to deal with the other saints. She hadn't expected these guys to be so shrewd.

Since that's the case, Nuwa can only try to deal with a few sages first!

Before she could think of a solution, Zhunti spoke first.

With a smile, Zhunti said to Lu Yun, "Lu Yun, do you know how you intend to sell the Primordial Purple Qi?"

Upon hearing this, Nuwa's face darkened, and she glared angrily at Zhunti.

Because Zhunti completely ignored what she had just said, thus ruining the atmosphere she had worked so hard to create.

However, with his senior brother Jieyin by his side, Zhunti was completely unafraid and ignored Nuwa's gaze, only keeping his eyes on Lu Yun.

Everyone else turned to look at Lu Yun, waiting for his answer.

Seeing that Zhunti had come to his rescue, Lu Yun smiled and said, "This item is so precious, naturally it belongs to the highest bidder!"

This made everyone frown deeply.

For a moment, no one made a bid; instead, everyone was deep in thought, while also warily watching the others around them.

The Three Pure Ones and the Two Sages of the West were all pondering what price they should ask for.

Those quasi-saints were filled with even more doubt and uncertainty.

To them, this Primordial Purple Qi was priceless. They would pay any price to obtain it.

But if the highest bidder wins, how can they possibly compete with those saints?

It's not that they don't have good spiritual treasures, but most of the powerful spiritual treasures they have are their natal treasures. If they were to trade them for Primordial Purple Qi, they would end up suffering serious injuries and a decrease in strength. Wouldn't that just be a bargain for others?

Looking at those saints, each one possesses extraordinary strength and countless spiritual treasures. Even if they give up some of their spiritual treasures, it will not have a significant impact on their strength. Their advantage is simply too great!

Thinking of this, the Quasi-Saints all became secretly anxious and began to think of countermeasures.

If the sages want to compete with them for the Primordial Purple Qi, they naturally cannot stop them, but they can also choose to become disciples of the sages!

As long as one can obtain the Primordial Purple Qi, even those Quasi-Saints who previously disdained to lower themselves to a lower level can now completely humble themselves and become disciples of the Saints!

Of course, some people have other ideas.

While everyone was deep in thought, Nuwa, standing beside Lu Yun, angrily transmitted her voice to him, saying, "Lu Yun, have you gone mad? Why are you so determined to abandon the Primordial Purple Qi?"

Lu Yun sighed softly and replied, "Goddess Nuwa, can't you see? In the current situation, we have no way to protect the Primordial Purple Qi! Rather than letting everyone fight to kill me and seize it, why don't I use this Primordial Purple Qi to exchange for some benefits?"

Nuwa remained silent for a moment.

She knew that it would be almost impossible for her and Fuxi, even if they joined forces with the Twelve Ancestral Witches, to protect the Primordial Purple Qi in Lu Yun's hands.

After all, they were facing five saints, dozens of quasi-saints, and hundreds of Daluo Golden Immortals!

She had to admit that Lu Yun's move was indeed very wise; it immediately stopped everyone's murderous intent, and instead, they all began to think about how to compete with others.

However, she was still unwilling to give up just like that.

At the same time, she secretly blamed herself, wishing she were stronger!

Only a few sages had no concerns about this.

Everyone originally thought that the next thing to watch would be these sages competing with each other for the Primordial Purple Qi.

Unexpectedly, none of the sages had any intention of competing.

Instead, they all suddenly vanished from everyone's sight in a flash!

Upon seeing this, everyone, whether they were people in the prehistoric world or members of the transmigration chat group watching the live stream, was stunned for a moment.

Chen Hai: "What's going on? These saints don't actually want the Primordial Purple Qi in Lu Yun's possession?"

Mingxi: "Could it be that they're hesitant to compete because of Hongjun's attitude?"

Lin Yan: "Really? I was hoping they'd argue until they were red in the face, maybe even start fighting!"

Liu Chongxiao: "You guys are too young! In my opinion, they haven't gone far! They're clearly preparing to sit back and watch the tigers fight!"

Jiang Ye: "I think so too! If these saints fight tooth and nail in front of a bunch of quasi-saints and great Luo immortals, wouldn't they lose face? It's better to wait for others to settle things first, and then they can make their move!"

Fang Wenjie: "Holy crap! Are they really that insidious?"

Xiao Ling'er: "But we can all guess their intentions, so how could Di Jun and the others not guess? Wouldn't that mean they wouldn't participate in the competition?"

Ling Yan: "Is it possible that those saints didn't care whether others were fighting for it or not?"

Yan Lingwei: "Hiss! Looks like I underestimated these old foxes! Could it be that Lu Yun's Primordial Purple Qi won't sell?"

……

Lu Yun glanced at the discussions in the live stream and couldn't help but frown slightly.

They thought they could use the Primordial Purple Qi to make everyone fight tooth and nail for it, so they could reap the benefits. But they never expected that Laozi and the others would secretly conspire to pull off this trick!

He himself couldn't help but worry, what if the Primordial Purple Qi really couldn't be sold?

However, at that moment, Di Jun, who was not far away, suddenly broke the silence.

He looked at Lu Yun calmly and said, "Human, if you hand over the Primordial Purple Qi to me, you will become the Cloud Emperor of my demon race! Your status will be equal to mine, the Eastern Emperor, and the Xi Emperor. What do you say?"

Upon hearing this, everyone around couldn't help but look at Di Jun, but many of them showed disdain.

The Twelve Ancestral Witches even resorted to direct mockery.

The Ancestral Witch Xuanming sneered, "Three-legged turkey, you've got a good plan. You think you can get the Primordial Purple Qi just by giving me a false status?"

Zhu Rong, the Ancestral Witch, laughed heartily and said, "This Di Jun is dreaming!"

Gonggong, the Ancestral Witch, also mocked, "This is the so-called Demon Emperor? So stingy with his resources, doesn't he even care about losing face!"

……

Di Jun was so angry that his face turned pale and then red.

Upon seeing this, Taiyi immediately roared angrily, "No matter what, if my brother obtains the Primordial Purple Qi, he can instantly attain sainthood. You ancestral witches would never even dream of such an opportunity!"

The Ancestral Witch Jumang sneered, "Is that so? It seems my Witch Clan must also participate in the struggle for the Primordial Purple Qi! No matter what, we cannot let your Demon Clan obtain it!"

The Ancestral Witch Xizi chimed in, "Second Brother is right! Whatever price the demon race offers, we'll simply add one more innate spiritual treasure!"

Dijiang, the Ancestral Witch, brightened up and immediately looked at Lu Yun, saying, "Lu Yun, if you hand over the Primordial Purple Qi to me, you will become the thirteenth Ancestral Witch of my Witch Clan, with the same status as the twelve of us! In addition, I will give you an extra innate spiritual treasure!"

"you!"

Both Di Jun and Tai Yi were furious, so angry that they almost cursed him out.

The quasi-saints and powerful beings around them all cast angry glances at the demon race.

Because, in their view, the Twelve Ancestral Witches wouldn't normally participate in this competition. After all, even if the Twelve Ancestral Witches obtained the Primordial Purple Qi, it wouldn't be of much use to them.

Who would have thought that Di Jun and his group would bring the Twelve Ancestral Witches into the competition!

Now, the difficulty for them to obtain the Primordial Purple Qi has increased even more!

Faced with so many hostile gazes, Di Jun and Tai Yi also felt some pressure.

Di Jun suddenly had a thought. He immediately abandoned his engagement with the Twelve Ancestral Witches and sneered, "Everyone, do you really think that this human race would so easily produce the Primordial Purple Qi? Even if he did produce the Primordial Purple Qi, how many of those who bought it could actually take it away?"

Upon hearing this, everyone fell silent again.

This is clearly their biggest concern, and the key reason why they haven't offered a price yet.

In particular, the saints who had just left.

If they finally manage to buy the Primordial Purple Qi, only to be forced to hand it over by those saints, it would be a huge loss!

Could it be that they really have no choice but to give up?

Everyone felt somewhat unwilling.

……

A cloud not far away.

Laozi, Yuanshi, Tongtian, Zhunti, and Jieyin were all here, concealing their presence and silently observing the unfolding events.

Seeing the conflicted expressions on Di Jun's and the others' faces, Yuan Shi couldn't help but smile and said to Lao Zi, "Brother, your strategy is still the most effective!"

Upon hearing Yuanshi's flattery, Laozi merely smiled faintly and said, "Next, we should discuss the ownership of this Primordial Purple Qi!"

So, their sudden departure was my idea, to prevent them from being led by the nose by Lu Yun!

Even if Laozi doesn't intend to give Lu Yun any benefits, he still wants to seize the Primordial Purple Qi!

Therefore, they plan to discuss here and see who offers the highest price will get the Primordial Purple Qi.

The difference is that the price they negotiated was not for Lu Yun, but for the others!

As for the Primordial Purple Qi, they can simply join forces and snatch it from Lu Yun when the time comes!

The reason why Zhunti and Jieyin agreed to this matter was that they felt that even if they could not seize the Primordial Purple Qi, it would be good to obtain a few top-level spiritual treasures from the Three Pure Ones!

Just as they were about to negotiate the price, they suddenly heard a burst of hearty laughter coming from Lu Yun and his group.

Laozi and the others paused slightly, their gazes involuntarily turning in that direction.

Because the person who laughed was none other than Lu Yun!

Lu Yun had done so many unexpected things before, so even now they had to see what Lu Yun was up to next.

Lu Yun smiled and looked at the crowd around him, saying, "Aren't you all worried that after buying the Primordial Purple Qi, you'll become the target of everyone's criticism? I have a way to solve this!"

Upon hearing this, everyone, including Laozi and Dijun, couldn't help but feel a little nervous.

They may not believe what others say.

But Lu Yun might actually have a solution!

Even Nuwa, Fuxi, and the Twelve Ancestral Witches all turned their gazes toward Lu Yun.

Lu Yun suddenly looked at Nuwa and said, "Your Majesty, do you possess any magical treasures that can block external detection? Ideally, even the detection of a sage?"

Nuwa nodded and said, "The Map of Mountains and Rivers in my hand can do just that!"

Immediately, a thought struck her, and she instantly understood Lu Yun's meaning.

"You intend to trade within the 'Map of Mountains and Rivers'?"

Lu Yun nodded and said, "That's right! Once inside the Mountain and River Map, we'll trade with everyone individually. Whoever offers the highest price, I'll sell to them! Because of the isolation measures, we won't reveal who ultimately obtains the Primordial Purple Qi. Presumably, as long as the person who buys the Primordial Purple Qi doesn't expose themselves, no one will know!"

Laozi and others: "..."

The eyes of Di Jun and other quasi-saint powerhouses lit up.

Sure enough, the human race came up with another unexpected idea, and it worked!

Nuwa gave Lu Yun a deep look and said, "There's a problem: they might not dare to enter my 'Map of Mountains and Rivers'!"

The powerful figures around them all had shifty eyes, clearly indicating that they had concerns.

Even the demons like Di Jun couldn't guarantee that Nuwa wouldn't take advantage of their conflict with Lu Yun to attack them.

Lu Yun grinned and said, "If you don't even dare to enter the Map of Mountains and Rivers, then what's the point of seeking the Primordial Purple Qi, or proving the Dao?"

These words left Di Jun and the others speechless.

Lu Yun, however, urged Nuwa directly, saying, "Your Majesty, please take out the Map of Mountains and Rivers now!"

"good!"

Nuwa pondered for a moment, then nodded directly.

That's good. Let's first take Lu Yun into the Mountain and River Map. Even if other sages want to take action later, it will be difficult for them to harm Lu Yun.

then--

"Buzz!"

With a wave of her hand, Nuwa conjured up an ancient scroll radiating boundless divine light.

It is the supreme innate spiritual treasure—the Map of Mountains and Rivers!
