Chapter 2043 Civil War and Military Struggle

"What Fellow Daoist Song said is absolutely true. I have no intention of asking you to give up on this rare Xuantian Spiritual Treasure, which is as rare as a phoenix feather."

"It's just that continuing to waste it like this is not an option. I believe you all can clearly feel that with the birth of Xuantian Lingbao, the devouring power under the quicksand is obviously increasing rapidly."

"Under the influence of this power, even if we don't urge the gong to make a move, the true energy in the body will flow away at several times the normal speed, or dozens of times. However, this power comes and goes without a trace, making it impossible to guard against it."

"As time goes by, one thing will fade away and the other will wax and wane. Not to mention the little friends here who are in the out-of-body stage, even if I and others are in the distraction stage, they will definitely not be able to bear it."

"The most important thing is that there is no way to know what is going on with the source of this power. When it reaches the point where we can no longer hold on, I'm afraid it won't be a matter of whether we can seize the treasure, but whether we can, under the influence of this surge of devouring power, It’s a matter of survival.”

Shao Ai's gentle and majestic voice sounded loudly.

These words made all the monks present look thoughtful, and then nodded slightly.

The swallowing power doubled, and everyone was affected.

But birds die for food and people die for wealth.

A Xuantian Spiritual Treasure was right in front of them, and no one gave up even if they knew the quicksand land was dangerous.

At this moment, in the air outside the flying boat, Xiao Wukian, who had been silent since the crisis was resolved, suddenly spoke out.

"What Mr. Shao said is not unreasonable. However, since Mr. Shao said this, he must have had a plan in mind. If you have any ideas, Mr. Shao may as well speak up. It would be best if this matter can be resolved peacefully!"

Shao Ai smiled and nodded, and continued: "My idea is quite simple. There is only one Xuantian Lingbao. To win the treasure, there are no more than two methods: literary and martial arts."

"This martial art is naturally based on the strength of cultivation. All the divine Taoist friends present are trying to catch each other in a duel. The loser will naturally have no chance with this treasure."

\u003e "The winner... will continue to fight until the last person is determined. At that time, the Xuantian Spiritual Treasure will belong to him. Others are not allowed to have any objections."

Before Shao Ai finished speaking, he heard Shenwei Taoist Aunt Linghu Chan snort,

"Haha, Master Shao is really good at planning things as he wishes."

"There are many distractions present, but Xuannvlou has two of them here at the same time. If we really have to decide the outcome in a battle of wits, wouldn't you, Xuannvlou, be the first to beat everyone else?"

Taoist Aunt Shenwei waved the whisk in her hand in the air, showing an undisguised look of dissatisfaction.

In terms of his own cultivation, even in the distraction period, he is indeed the best.

But the problem is, among the other nine major forces present, who is not the best among them during the distraction period?

Cui Shaolin from Tiandao Palace only had a clone, so it can be ignored.

Feng Jianxing, the elder Ke Qing of Bitao Villa, is a well-known weapon refiner in the world of immortality. As for his strength... I heard he was pretty good, but she didn't take it to heart either.

But other than that, you really have to face other people alone.

No matter it was the two owners of Xuannv Building, Xiao Wujian of Xuanyuan Sword Sect, Song Chunqiu of Centennial Academy, or even Huo Yuanzhen, the master swordsman of Tiangang Sect, she didn't have much confidence in facing these people.

Not to mention, there were two distracting periods present in Xuannv Building at the same time.

If we really want to decide the ownership of the Xuantian Spiritual Treasure in this way, it would be better to just let the people from Xuannv Tower take the treasure away.

"It doesn't matter, this method doesn't work, I have other ideas."

"The so-called literary struggle is simple. The Xuantian Spiritual Treasure is put out for auction, and the one with the highest price gets it."

"In this way, it doesn't involve fighting, and naturally it won't hurt the harmony."

The smile on Shao Ai's face remained and his voice continued to sound.

He was obviously prepared for anyone to question him.

"Auction?" Taoist Aunt Shenwei was slightly startled, her mind spinning rapidly.

Before she could continue speaking, Shao Ai continued: "As for the final auction proceeds, all parties present, regardless of whether there are Taoist friends in the distraction stage present, can each have a share."

"As for the specific distribution method, it won't be too late for everyone to sit down and discuss it after we leave this quicksand."

"It is impossible for everyone to have a share of the Xuantian Lingbao, but if everyone comes from afar, they don't want to return empty-handed."

"Even if I don't tell you, all fellow Taoists should be aware of the value of the Xuantian Spiritual Treasure. When converted into spiritual stones, the value is comparable to that of a second-rate force. It may even be worth the financial resources of most of the first-rate forces. Maybe."

"In this way, even if you don't get the Xuantian Spiritual Treasure, you can still gain a lot. What do you think, fellow Taoists?"

Shao Ai looked around quickly as he spoke with a faint smile on his face.

Wherever he looked, the other first- and second-rate monks present showed expressions of emotion. Some second- and third-rate out-of-body-stage monks who didn't even exist in the distraction stage were even more ecstatic, and their joy was beyond words.

For these powerful monks, coming here is just to gamble on the time difference.

After all, the aura emanating from this place before was so grand and astonishing that even if the ruins of the caves of the past strong men had not been discovered, there might have been more than one treasure.

Even if there are not many treasures, it is usually difficult for people to participate in the treasure hunt to gather together at once.

After a small-scale fight, those with quick hands will naturally pocket the treasure early and then run away quickly.

Only this time, things are obviously different.

The Xuantian Lingbao's appeal is amazing, but with nine super-powerful monks present, everyone doesn't actually have high hopes.

My only idea is that if a few of the nine super-first-rate forces fight, it would be best if they each suffer heavy losses. That might be an opportunity for everyone.

At this moment, after hearing the proposal of Shao Ai, the owner of Xuannv Tower, everyone was only slightly startled, and then they immediately realized the benefits.

The Xuantian Lingbao was auctioned, and everyone, regardless of their strength, could get a resource without risking their lives.

This kind of thing, not to mention pie in the sky, is definitely a good thing.

Seeing the reactions of most of the cultivators present, Shao Ai stopped talking, and his eyes slowly swept over the nine super-first-class forces' distraction-stage cultivators.

Song Chunqiu smiled and spoke first, "The purpose of etiquette is harmony! Shao's method is very wonderful, Song has no objection."

"I have no objection to Shao's proposal. But I have an unwelcome request. Before the auction of this treasure, can I observe it for an hour?"

Feng Jianxing, who had never said much, suddenly spoke.

Shao Ai laughed out loud and said, "Fellow Daoist Feng is a famous weapon refiner in the holy land of cultivation. It is reasonable for him to want to observe the magic weapons. If this can be accomplished, I will agree on behalf of everyone, and I believe that fellow Daoists will not have any objections." He agreed to Feng Jianxing's request without hesitation. "Hmm?" Nun Shenwei frowned when she heard this and was about to reprimand him. She was quite dissatisfied with Shao Ai. She was still upset about the previous incident against Liu Hua, which was stopped by Shao Ai. But when the words came to her lips, she swallowed them back immediately.
