0925 Scramble for priority
From the beginning of entering the Golden Dan stage palace, Lin Chen let the world's power cover the entire palace area. Without the barrier of the protective formation, the world's power can be slightly activated to explore the palace area clearly. And there is no need to invest too many spirit stones.
In the scope of the power of the world, any slight movement will be noticed by Lin Chen.
When outside the ruins, Lin Chen inexplicably felt that Xie Zhu City under Bai Yulin would cause trouble to him in the future. Since then, Lin Chen has been paying attention to the every move of Bai Yulin and Kang Chong. Therefore, all the expression changes of Kang Chong after seeing the insect-raising bag were captured by Lin Chen.
Although he didn't know the specific reason for Kang Chong's change in expression, Lin Chen immediately felt that this insect-raising bag must have a great use for Kang Chong beyond his imagination. He would never allow Kang Chong to obtain the insect-raising bag in the item distribution that is about to begin.
After the monks harvested fourteen magic weapons in the showroom, the entire Golden Pill Palace was finally explored. Next, the most exciting moment was that they were about to start dividends.
After the group arrived in the palace hall, Lan Ling'er raised her hand and brushed at a huge jade table. The golden elixir-stage items immediately appeared on the table. There were spiritual plants, precious ore, elixirs, jade slips, and magic weapons of various grades. Of course, the top priority was the fourteen low-grade magic weapons.
The monks spent a long time confirming the approximate value of each item one by one, and then divided it into seven piles with almost a difference in theoretical values.
"Everyone, the values of these seven piles of items are basically equal. No matter which pile you get, it is not a disadvantage. It's just that the items that everyone likes may be different, and some items are favored by many people, but we obviously cannot meet everyone's requirements. We must finally decide on a selection order. If the items you like are picked out first by others, then you will negotiate with the other party in private to exchange them. What do you think?" Wang Yuan said at the seven piles of items.
"That's right." The monks all nodded in agreement.
Lin Chen is also indecisive. Lin Chen is not too concerned about these items. Now he only needs to find a way to prevent Kang Chong from getting the magic weapon of the insect-raising bag.
"Then how should we decide on the order of selection?" A monk asked.
"This is not simple. The old method is to draw lots." Chang Sheng said carelessly.
Wang Yuan was about to nod and agree, but Kang Chong suddenly interrupted.
"Everyone, you have to admit that we have achieved such a huge gain this time, mainly because I have shouldered a huge sin. This has a great impact on my future cultivation. Maybe my cultivation path will be cut off. In other words, whether you admit it or not, you all owe me a favor. Now, I plan to exchange this favor for the right to choose the first item. Isn't that too much? As long as you let me choose first, we will be considered a clean and clear-cut." Kang Chong said sinisterly.
The other monks looked at Kang Chong sideways, feeling a little strange about Kang Chong's behavior of choosing items first. Because the value of the seven piles of items in front of him can only be roughly estimated, and their estimates will be huge errors, which will lower the original value of items.
Being able to choose first is at most just to get what you like. It is really hard to say whether you will gain advantage in actual value. Kang Chong actually doesn’t need to be so urgent to help everyone with their sins to threaten them and get the first choice.
Could it be that there is something Kang Chong must get in the items in front of him?
The monks were not fools. They looked carefully at the seven piles of items and quickly guessed what item Kang Chong was eager to get. Among the items in front of him, the most valuable item to Kang Chong was the magic weapon of the insect-raising bag.
The insects that Kang Chong plays with are originally a kind of insects. As the name suggests, the insect breeding bag must have a unique auxiliary effect on the cultivation of insects. Then it is not difficult to understand Kang Chong's eagerness to get it.
Deep down, other monks did not take Kang Chong too seriously. As long as they were prepared for Kang Chong in advance, it would be difficult for Kang Chong's Gu Worm to plot against the same level of monks. And Kang Chong's own real force can only be regarded as the tail of a crane among the monks present. Even if Kang Chong can increase his Gu Worm's power after obtaining the insect breeding bag, it may not be considered a big deal.
The most taboo monks are to owe people to recognize each other. Since Kang Chong wants to exchange this favor for the right to choose the item first, it is also a good thing.
The monks looked at each other and exchanged their eyes and nodded.
At this time, Lin Chen spoke.
"Everyone, when you are outside the ruins, all of you have recognized that I have three priority selection rights for the relics. I have not exercised this right before. And in the process of breaking the formation, I played an irreplaceable role. You must admit that the love you owe me is greater than the love you owe Senior Brother Kang. Now, I formally request my priority. But please rest assured that I only exercise the priority rights for selecting the pile heads and will not make any demands on other items in the pile heads. Moreover, I exercised this priority rights as if my three priority rights were exercised. What do you think?" Lin Chen said in a cold tone.
All the monks, including Kang Chong, were stunned. Could it be that Lin Chen also liked something that he was bound to win? So, in order to make sure that the items he liked were not incorrect, Lin Chen even started to argue with Kang Chong directly.
Speaking of which, compared to Kang Chong's request, the monks tend to agree with Lin Chen's request. Although they deliberately or unintentionally ignored Lin Chen's priority in the distribution of items in front, they agreed in broad daylight. It is not impossible to blur the past, but it will eventually become a joke in their hearts.
It would be a better thing to fulfill their uncommitted promise to Lin Chen in this way.
However, Lin Chen's request and Kang Chong's request were in conflict. It would be fine if they were inconsistent with what they were sure to get. If they all took a fancy to the same group of heads, then things would be in trouble.
The monks exchanged a glance again and exchanged some views with their eyes.
"Junior Brother Lin..." Wang Yuan, who had roughly learned the meaning of everyone, pondered for a moment and spoke slowly.
"Junior Brother Lin, can I know which pile of people you want to choose?" Kang Chong asked Lin Chen anxiously before Wang Yuan spoke.
After the eye contact in the previous moment, Kang Chong understood the meaning of other monks. The meaning of the monks was very obvious. Anyway, the values of the seven piles were not much different, and they did not have any items that they were bound to win, so using this priority to settle Lin Chen's favor is much more cost-effective than Kang Chong's favor.
In fact, not only did the cultivators have made a promise to Lin Chen, but Lin Chen did play an irreplaceable role in breaking the formation. Lin Chen also lost nine precious and extremely valuable top-quality spirit stones.
In any aspect, Lin Chen's contributions during the exploration process were much greater than those of Kang Chong.
Kang Chong saw that something was wrong. Although he felt that Lin Chen had a chance to choose the pile of insect-raising bags, he was not very good at choosing the pile of insect-raising bags. However, in his mind, the insect-raising bag was too important, so important that he could fight for it. He would never allow the insect-raising bag to fall into other people's pockets. No matter how small the chance was, it was, because he couldn't afford it.
That's why he suddenly asked Lin Chen which pile he wanted to choose first before Wang Yuan.
Kang Chong didn't know that his behavior strengthened Lin Chen's determination not to let him get the insect-raising bag. The more abnormal Kang Chong acted, the more important the insect-raising bag was to him. Maybe the insect-raising bag would have an incredible effect on Kang Chong in Kang Chong's hands.
Lin Chen, who was already faintly hostile to the forces of Xiezhi City, naturally did not want to see the future hostile forces receive significant help. If it was not stopped at this time, wouldn’t it add trouble to the future Tianlang Army?
You should know that Lin Chen, a powerful weapon similar to ace, has several pieces in his hand. Let’s not talk about the Chaos Seeds, the most direct ones are teleportation array plates, the Heaven-Bully Talisman, the treasure map of the Lingli Master, etc. There are also the legendary creature Liu Huang.
Lin Chen was afraid that after Kang Chong got the insect-raising bag, the insect-raising bag would become an ace-like existence in Kang Chong's hands. Although he didn't know why other monks seemed so indifferent to the insect-raising bag, Kang Chong's abnormal reaction before and after was not fake.
If you don’t be afraid of ten thousand in everything, you’re afraid of something. If there is a trace of unfavorable factors that may become reality, Lin Chen will firmly strangle it to death in the cradle.
As for the consequences of confronting Kang Chong now, Lin Chen just thought for a moment and stopped thinking about it. If he only dealt with a cultivator in another world, Lin Chen, with the legendary Liu Huang who is already at the ninth level, could not win it, but at least he was invincible.
"Senior Brother Kang, it seems that it has nothing to do with you, right? Why, Senior Brother Kang is worried that I will choose the pile you like? Brother Kang is worried that I will choose the pile you like? Brother Kang is worried that even if I choose the pile you like, you can exchange other items for the items you want." Lin Chen said seriously to Kang Chong.
Kang Chong's face immediately became gloomy and he immediately kept silent. When the situation developed to this extent, Kang Chong was no longer suitable to say more and do more. Otherwise, it would definitely arouse the alertness of other monks.
He could only pray in his heart that the pile head that Lin Chen looked at was not the one that contained the insect-raising bag.
"Then let it be decided. Junior Brother Lin, you have the priority. After you make the choice, even if you exercise the three priority we promised you, the sacrifices you made for everyone during the process of breaking the formation can be considered offset." Wang Yuan, seeing that Kang Chong stopped talking, announced the decision on behalf of everyone.
When Wang Yuan said this, the five cultivators from other worlds, except Kang Chong, couldn't help but feel a little hot. It was obvious to all that Lin Chen paid nine top-quality spirit stones during the process of breaking the formation. And they also personally agreed that Lin Chen had the right to choose items three times. Now, in such a nearly playful way, all these things were offset. No matter how thick-skinned the monks were, they felt a little embarrassed.
Especially Lan Ling'er and Chunniang, who are close to Lin Chen, feel even more ashamed.
Fortunately, the proposal to offset the feelings was proposed by Lin Chen himself, and it was not forced by the monks. Therefore, although the monks felt a little ashamed, they quickly returned to normal.
"Senior Brother Wang, and you all, Lin said with certainty that as long as I exercise this priority, we will not owe each other in this exploration of the ruins." Lin Chen said with certainty.
Seeing that Lin Chen's expression was indeed not a fake, the monks showed a peaceful smile on their faces.
"Junior Brother Lin, please." Wang Yuan spread his hands to the seven piles and said to Lin Chen.
Lin Chen slowly walked towards the jade desk table.
The six monks all widened their eyes, wanting to know which pile of people should choose first when Lin Chen gave up the huge affection that everyone owed him, and did not hesitate to fight Kang Chong directly, and he also wanted to get the right to choose first.
