Chapter 77: Playing with the Nine-Star Emperor (Second Update Seeking Recommendations)

  Confronting Yi Chi's icy gaze, Li Xunxun felt as if he had fallen into an ice cellar.

  "Please, sir, please, please..." he begged repeatedly, but unfortunately, Yi Chi remained unmoved.

  Yi Chi casually sealed off Lie Xun's overwhelming aura, and then carelessly tossed her aside like a broken sack of rice onto the ground, completely ignoring her mournful cries for mercy. Yi Chi turned to look at Lie Yun, who had long since fainted unconscious.

  "Little girl, you go to sleep first, I'll take you away later." Yi Chi rarely showed his gentle side as he put down Li Ye, and instead pulled over a Douleng who seemed to be watching the commotion to keep an eye on her.

  "Listen up, kid. If she's even slightly hurt, I'll make sure you can't live or die in peace." Yi Chi said menacingly to the man with a tear-stained face.

  The man who was pulled over by Yichi looked at him with fear and then desperately nodded his head.

  He turned his head back and took a glance at Li Yun, then Yi Chi flew up into the air with determination. There, a group of people were already waiting for him.

  ......

  As Dai Yi Chi approached the group, one of the two leaders spoke up and said: "Sir, your actions are a bit too overbearing. I don't know what offense our Li Tian Auction House has committed against you?"

  That person spoke politely, but the momentum was not polite at all. The overwhelming pressure of the Nine-Star Dou Emperor heavily pressed down on Yi Chi. If it were the Yi Chi from a few minutes ago, he would have been crushed to dust by this enormous pressure. Unfortunately for him, Yi Chi now possessed the strength of a One-Star Dou Zun, and this trivial Dou Emperor-level pressure was not even in his eyes.

  He lightly waved his hand and that massive oppressive force instantly dissipated.

  Li Lian saw Yi Chi break his oppressive aura with such ease, and his face suddenly changed.

  "Are you Dou Zun?" Li Lian asked uncertainly.

  As soon as this was said, whether it was Lishi Kong standing beside Lishi Yan or the many experts standing behind them, their faces all changed greatly.

  Dousheng, the person in front of me is actually a famous Dousheng.

  Yi Chi smiled and nodded: "Not bad, I just broke through the Dou Zun bottle neck."

  "This is impossible!" Yi Chi had just finished speaking when Li Kong on the other side let out a disbelieving shout.

  "How can you possibly break through that demonic seal? It's impossible, absolutely impossible!" Lishi shouted loudly as if he was the only one present, his voice sounding like a madman.

  "Second Brother!" Li Lian saw Li Kong's appearance and hastily shouted.

  Although he himself could hardly believe it, the fact was before his eyes and he couldn't help but believe it.

  What can easily dispel the pressure of this old nine-star Dou Emperor if it's not a Dou Zun?

  "How did he break through the Demon-Sealing Boundary?"

  Now Lian only wants to figure out one thing, how did the person in front of him break through the demon-sealing barrier set up by the many gods and break through to the Dou Zun level.

  If he could grasp this method himself, did that mean he could break through as well? To think that he had been trapped in the Nine Stars Battle Emperor for over three hundred years already, over three hundred years! He didn't even know how he had endured it.

  As soon as he thought that he would be able to obtain this method and break through to the Dou Zun level, Li Lian's heart was no longer calm.

  "But how can I get him to hand over the method?" Lishi was worried, the person in front of her was a Dou Zun who was much stronger than herself, not some insignificant cat or dog, she couldn't use force to coerce him, so what could she do?

  "Big brother?" Having been shouted at by Li Jian, Li Kong finally came to and looked at his big brother who was deep in thought, hastily calling out.

  "Huh?" Glared at Lishi Kong, just as Lishi Lian was about to get to the key point, he was interrupted by him. How could he not be annoyed?

  Li Kong glanced at his older brother with a hint of embarrassment, still somewhat afraid of him. After all, he was his own older brother, and Li Kong had been raised by Li Lian since childhood, which was a mix of fraternal and paternal affection. Now that he had inadvertently interrupted his brother's thoughts, he felt a bit embarrassed too.

  "What's wrong?" After all, they were close brothers, and Li Lian was only slightly annoyed, so he started asking.

  "Big brother, I think we can use something to exchange for the secret of that person's breakthrough to Dou Zun?" Although Lishi didn't reach the 9-star Dou Emperor as quickly as Lian, his impulsive and fiery personality made him eager to break through again after less than a hundred years.

  Her eyes lit up, and she suddenly felt that this possibility was very high.

  "Yes, as long as we can come up with something he'll be satisfied with, it's not impossible that we might actually get our hands on that secret. As long as we guarantee to keep it under wraps, I think the possibility is still quite high." Li Lian looked at his younger brother Li Kong in surprise, he had never been this excited before, after all these years, something he thought was already impossible, even if the Child of God was about to be born, he didn't feel excited because he was afraid of death, he didn't want to go to that place. But now, heaven has given him hope once again, and the person in front of him is his only hope.

  "I must succeed, I must!" Li Jian's eyes were already red as he thought to himself that if he really couldn't exchange it, then he would have no choice but to experience the power of Dou Zun.

  He glanced at his second brother beside him, and his confidence increased a bit more.

  ......

  Yi Chi was already fed up.

  The two people in front of him whispered to each other for a while, then looked at him with that disgusting gaze again, making Yi Chi feel a chill.

  But from just now that guy's void, Yi Chi also got some information.

  "It seems that this continent has a layer of demon-sealing barrier that prevents people from breaking through the Dou Zun boundary." Thinking of this, Yi Chi couldn't help but feel a sense of relief.

  "I knew it, how could no one have broken through to the Dou Zun stage for so long? It turns out there was a reason like this! Thinking of my current strength, isn't that invincible?"

  "You're nothing but a joke, you can't even bring out the power that a Dou Zun should have, at most you can only be considered a fake Dou Zun." Yi Tang's voice rang out once again.

  "Heh, at least it's better than the Nine-Star Emperor, right?" Yi Chi asked with a smile. He also knew that this power wasn't his own and couldn't be used to its maximum potential. Moreover, he hadn't risen through the ranks step by step, so his control over Dou Qi wasn't as effortless as those true Dou Zuns. His actual strength was far from comparable to a genuine One-Star Dou Zun.

  "That's right, even if you just use your Qi to wildly blast, you can still kill the Nine Star Dou Emperor. The Dou Emperor and the Dou Zun are fundamentally not on the same level." Yi Tang said matter-of-factly.

  "Hehe, that's good." After getting the affirmative answer, Yi Chi looked at the two people in front of him again. Among this group of people, only they were Dou Emperors, while the others were just some Dou Zongs and Dou Wangs, not even a single Dou Huang, completely not worth looking at.

  ......

  "Alright then, let's do it!" Lishi Kong also said excitedly.

  Li Lian nodded and both of them turned around, waving their hands to shoo away a group of people behind them.

  Those people didn't dare to oppose and directly fell to the ground.

  They exchanged a glance and looked at Yixi Pool again.

  At this time, Yi Chi also happened to look at them, and the eyes of the three people coincided.

  "How about it? Do you two have anything else to say?" Yi Chi spoke up first.

  He went to see what kind of evil ideas these two had just come up with.

  "Since you are a famous expert, we naturally don't have much to say. However, since you've destroyed our Lian Tian Auction House, you should at least show some courtesy." Li Lian said calmly, without any trace of his previous agitation.

  Yi Chi couldn't help but laugh, he really wanted to hear what they had to say.

  "Alright, so what is it that you want?" Yi Chi said.

  Li Lian was taken aback, originally thinking that Yi Chi would at least retort a few words and then express his willingness to trade something for the secret, which would naturally increase the chances of success.

  But now that Yi Chi has said it this way, he is indeed in a difficult position to answer. Should he say 'You tell me the secret of breaking through to Dou Zun, and that will be considered as showing goodwill.'

  Why don't they just fight directly!

  He would rather not fight if he could help it; that was what Lishi had been thinking. Now, he had to come up with an explanation.

  Just as Lishi was worrying, Lixiao beside him suddenly spoke up and said: "Big brother, let me say it instead."

  Having said that, he didn't wait for Lian's response and started speaking.

  "It's like this, we're willing to trade something for the secret method of your breakthrough." Lishi was direct and also had that kind of temperament, being able to endure until now was already quite good.

  Yi Chi heard this and burst out laughing in his heart.

  What's their secret to breaking through on their own? Even if they're willing to give it to them, they wouldn't dare use it!

  Just as he was about to refuse, he suddenly had an idea.

  "Perhaps this is a good opportunity for blackmail." With that thought, Yi Chi couldn't help but let out a sinister smile.

  "That's easy to say, but it also depends on what you're using for exchange." Yi Chi said with a smile.

  As soon as this was said, Li Lian, who had been furious at Lie Kong for speaking out of turn, became agitated.

  He promised, he really did.

  It's no better than going through Lian, and at this time, his whole body was trembling.

  "Hey, I'm telling you to hurry up!" Yi Chi looked at the two people who had stopped talking again, and felt a surge of impatience.

  I don't have much time left, it's already been almost five minutes and the medicine only lasts for twenty-five minutes.

  A burst of excitement is stirring among the people.

  Then, the two flew in front of Yi Chi at their fastest speed ever, taking out one by one the treasures they were proud of for Yi Chi to see.

  They have many treasures, but unfortunately, Yi Chi only likes a few of them.

  Those elixirs! Those weapons! Even martial arts aren't worthy of being seen by Yi Chi.

  Only some demon cores can be seen in his eyes.

  It's not that the elixirs and equipment they took out were bad, it's just that those things can be exchanged for better ones. If he had a choice, Yi Chi would still choose the magic core that could be exchanged for energy points, or directly give him gold coins. Anyway, as long as it could be exchanged for energy points, Yi Chi wouldn't want anything else. Those martial skills were just Xuan-level martial skills, nothing impressive, at least not in Yi Chi's eyes. He himself used Earth-level skills, so he didn't need such low-quality goods.

  Those weapons were also nothing good, and all kinds of rare treasures were even more despised by Yi Chi.

  He wants to do something with those things, if he wants to exchange them for money, he still has to take them to auction, at that time he won't have the power to do so, and if discovered, there will be no way out, he doesn't believe these two haven't left any marks or anything.
