Chapter 941: Chapter 939: Soul Immortal Ginseng
Not long after Lin Mu left, another person came looking for me, Lin Xiao.
Lin Xiao had already learned that Lin Mu got the official position all because he bought a True Yang Thunderball here.
Luan Yu received Lin Xiao and brought him to Chu Hao, saying, "Boss Chu, I want to buy all the True Yang Thunderballs you have."
Luan Yu was also excited; another wealthy customer had arrived.
Chu Hao looked the person up and down; this guy, like Lin Mu, was a local Netherworld Tribe person, seemed pretty rich, and sounded so domineering right off the bat.
Chu Hao shook his head and said, "I’m no longer interested in Underworld Currency."
Lin Xiao was stunned and said, "Then what do you want?"
Chu Hao said, "Curse Marks, rare Yin-Yang Techniques, Ghost Techniques will do."
Lin Xiao said, "Let me think."
Then Lin Xiao had someone bring over an item; it was a scroll of papers. Lin Xiao said, "This is my collection of Ghost Art Soul Extraction, valued at thirty million Underworld Currency. How many True Yang Thunderballs can I exchange it for?"
Chu Hao took it.
"Ding... Ghost Art, Soul Extraction, can be exchanged for thirty thousand Pretentiousness Points."
Chu Hao was delighted; this was the real big catch. See if Brother Hao doesn’t drain you dry.
Chu Hao said, "Not too shabby, five of them."
The wealthy aura that Lin Xiao had just shown exploded like a balloon; he got furious and said, "Valued at thirty million Underworld Currency, just five? Did you make a mistake?"
Chu Hao said, "This level of Ghost Technique doesn’t impress me; five is already quite good."
Lin Xiao’s mouth twitched, "Then I’ll buy them with Underworld Currency."
"Sure, three hundred thousand Underworld Currency each."
Lin Xiao’s face darkened and said, "You’re messing with me; why did it increase by a hundred thousand when it came to me?"
Chu Hao replied impatiently, "I have absolutely no interest in money."
"Ding... Host successfully acted pretentiously, gaining 7000 Pretentiousness Points."
Lin Xiao almost spat blood; you’re not interested in money, yet you ask for so much, isn’t this a scam?
Chu Hao calmly said, "I set the rules, buying or not is your business. Luan Yu, see the guest out."
Lin Xiao cursed inwardly, estimating that if he didn’t buy, Lin Mu would. So he directly said, "Alright, I’ll take fifty."
Having money really makes one reckless; he asked for fifty just like that.
But as wealthy as he was, he didn’t have one and a half billion Underworld Currency unless he could secure shares in the corporation.
Still, he purchased with the Ghost Technique, obtaining fifty True Yang Thunderballs from Chu Hao before leaving.
Chu Hao put away the Underworld Currency.
"System, exchange the Ghost Technique."
"Ding... Host exchanged Ghost Technique, gaining thirty thousand Pretentiousness Points."
Thirty thousand Pretentiousness Points, not too much, not too little, enough to cover the cost of making the True Yang Thunderballs.
Chu Hao said, "Close up; we’re not seeing guests today."
Luan Yu didn’t understand, but in the end, he closed the door.
Chu Hao opened the Underworld Mobile Phone; he now had one and a half billion Underworld Currency and wanted to purchase items from it.
One and a half billion Underworld Currency is a terrifying amount; it’s not the same as the RMB in the Yang Realm; Underworld Currency has even higher value.
To know that a Ghost Officiant like White Impermanence has a fifty-year salary of just two million Underworld Currency, one and a half billion, would be enough for White Impermanence to work in the judiciary for four thousand five hundred years.
This shows how high the exchange rate between Underworld Currency and RMB is.
He checked the items available for one and a half billion.
Found that there weren’t many; Fifth Order Curse Marks, Rare World Ghost Techniques, and one item turned out to be a Goddess Undergarment.
What the heck!
What is a Goddess Undergarment?
Chu Hao clicked to look and was speechless; it was a female inner armor of an Underworld Deity with highly strong defense.
If a female ghost wore it, she’d be almost invincible.
Originally, it wasn’t valued that high, but some sleazy rich guys pushed it to this price.
After a while, Chu Hao lost interest; the publicly sold items were no good.
These Ghost Techniques, Curse Marks, Yin-Yang Techniques didn’t impress him at all, and their prices were sky high.
At this time, he came across an auction.
Moreover, it was about to start, held by the Underworld.
Chu Hao asked Luan Yu about the authenticity of this auction house.
Luan Yu said, "Sir, don’t worry; this is an authoritative auction software, generally it’s purchase and pay on delivery, never scammed anyone."
Chu Hao checked out the items up for auction, and one item caught his attention.
"Soul Immortal Ginseng."
Chu Hao was surprised; the Underworld actually had such a thing.
In the System Shop, Soul Immortal Ginseng was available for twenty thousand Pretentiousness Points.
Soul Immortal Ginseng is a treasure that can enhance soul force, able to purify soul force; it holds high value to Ghost Cultivators, developing soul force.
However, Soul Immortal Ginseng also has another effect, which is life-replacing.
Soul Immortal Ginseng is the main ingredient to refine a Yin-Yang Life-Saving Talisman.
The effect of the Yin-Yang Life-Saving Talisman is at the brink of death, it can replace a person to die and then let the original revive, equivalent to a life-saving rebirth talisman.
This stuff is rare; Chu Hao had seen it in the System Shop before but the price was too high-end, requiring fifty thousand Pretentiousness Points; he drooled thinking about it, didn’t expect the Underworld to have it.
Chu Hao took a deep breath, registered an auction account, waiting for the auction to proceed.
This auction software can display the number of viewers, surprisingly over a million audience.
Meaning, more than a million viewers were watching this auction.
The auction began; the live streaming appeared on the phone, taking out one expensive, shocking item after another.
Chu Hao was keeping an eye on the auction in the live streaming room.
The host said, "Fifth Order Curse Mark, Soul Devour."
"The effect of Curse Mark Soul Devour, I’m sure everyone is aware, it can extract and devour the silver soul of Corpse Monsters, continuously enhancing one’s soul force."
The host explained, making even Chu Hao want to buy this Curse Mark Soul Devour.
However, he knew this Curse Mark wasn’t that heaven-defying; could it really keep boosting soul force? There were surely limitations.
"Starting price, sixty million Underworld Currency."
As the price kept rising, Curse Mark Soul Devour paused at eighty-two million Underworld Currency; this seemed its price cap, couldn’t go higher.
Chu Hao could see, some accounts were bidding; he noticed accounts of Lǚ Bù and Xiang Yu, both verified by the auction house.
Lǚ Bù initially offered seventy-five million Underworld Currency, but then others outbid him, and he never bid again.
Chu Hao mumbled, "This Lǚ Bù, quite wealthy."
Item after item, auctioned off.
Listening to the live streaming host’s introduction, Chu Hao drooled over almost every item, wishing he had ten billion Underworld Currency to buy them all.
"I’m still too poor," Chu Hao sighed.
If others knew he earned one and a half billion Underworld Currency in less than a month and still called himself poor, who knows what they’d think.
Finally, it was the Soul Immortal Ginseng’s turn.
The host introduced, "Soul Immortal Ginseng, sourced from the northern depths of the Great Netherworld, a fraction of its roots can elevate a Ghost King to Ghost Asura."
The viewers boiled over, continuously spamming the screen.
