345: That's it?
Although not interested in Udo's bargaining chips, Lin Tianwei was very interested in Udo's purpose.
So, even in this situation, Lin Tianwei was willing to give Udo another chance to see what he really wanted to do.
Thinking of this, Lin Tianwei directly took Luo Ji's communicator and said blandly, "It's me."
Lin Tianwei's words were devoid of any emotion, as if the person he was talking to was someone he had no interest in whatsoever.
This situation instantly chilled Udo's heart, which had been somewhat joyful because Lin Tianwei answered the call immediately.
The reason this big shot answered his call immediately might not be because he was very interested in his goods.
After all, the Lotus Auction was currently underway, and there were plenty of similar high-grade items; his arm no longer held a monopoly value.
Thinking of this, Udo lowered his posture even further and said, "Respected sir, please forgive my rudeness last time."
"I hope to continue our last transaction, the transaction regarding the Long-Arm Tribe's arm."
"I not only have Cosmic Level Stage Three Long-Arm Tribe arms in stock, but I have a large quantity of them, and the price is also very reasonable."
"I am willing to trade ten Cosmic Beast Stage Three Long-Arm Tribe arms for ten mu crystal stones from you."
"Ten mu crystal stones, each weighing over one del and with a purity of over 99.95%."
"Sir, this transaction can be said to be excellent value for money; please be sure to agree to it."
Since he wanted to trade, Udo's target was naturally the best mu crystal stone, and he asked for ten right away.
Of course, he didn't dare to play tricks with the price.
Lin Tianwei's pressure was simply too great, making him not dare to be presumptuous in the slightest.
Although ten arms would severely deplete his vitality and even risk a drop in his realm.
However, as long as he could exchange them for ten mu crystal stones to replenish his lost origin and extend his lifespan, all of this would be worthwhile.
It was just that this deal was only considered reasonable by Udo; Lin Tianwei would not think so at all.
Especially after tasting the false effects of Udo's arm, Lin Tianwei utterly despised this garbage food.
After a moment of contemplation, Lin Tianwei said, "One arm is one thousand units of origin, and ten arms are ten thousand units of origin."
"Exchanging for ten mu crystal stones is indeed a very reasonable transaction."
Lin Tianwei's words made Udo ecstatic.
If there were other ways to obtain treasures that extended life, he wouldn't have even considered dealing with Lin Tianwei.
He was indeed forced into a desperate situation.
But as long as there was a glimmer of hope, he wouldn't resort to the most desperate measures.
However, before Udo could continue to discuss the transaction with Lin Tianwei, he heard Lin Tianwei slowly say:
"Although this transaction is reasonable, I'm sorry, but I don't need such garbage items."
"Things without value, no matter how expensive or numerous, cannot pique my interest."
"If you came to me just to say things that cannot arouse any interest in me, then you can leave."
Lin Tianwei's reply instantly made Udo feel as if he had fallen into an ice cellar.
He never expected that his always effective arm would be looked down upon by Lin Tianwei and even be labeled as garbage.
This matter made him both angry and helpless.
Suppressing the anger in his heart, Udo said, "Since sir is not interested in Long-Arm Tribe arms, then how about we change the bargaining chips?"
"Two hundred million yuan crystals for five of the mu crystal stones I mentioned earlier; this is also a very reasonable transaction."
"Additionally, I will give you a very important piece of news, news concerning your life and fortune."
Two hundred million yuan crystals were almost Udo's entire fortune.
Although he still had some yuan crystals left, there were very few, and they had to be kept for emergencies.
It could be said that two hundred million yuan crystals was the best offer he could make.
However, two hundred million yuan crystals obviously couldn't exchange for five mu crystal stones, so Udo had no choice but to increase the stakes, adding a piece of news concerning Lin Tianwei's life and fortune.
This news was naturally about Filiche's intention to attack Lin Tianwei.
As a superficial friend, even a superficial friend who had just formed an alliance, Udo completely didn't care about selling Filiche out immediately.
As long as it could bring him enough benefits, he felt at ease selling Filiche.
To make his offer seem more reasonable, Udo added, saying:
"The market price for mu crystal stones of this quality and purity is around thirty million yuan crystals, so I have already offered a very reasonable price."
"Not only that, but I'm also including a priceless piece of news, sir, you're practically making a huge profit."
Udo spoke with grand eloquence, even citing the market price of mu crystal stones as an example,
completely ignoring Lin Tianwei's high purchase price, which was several times higher than the price he offered.
Coupled with that tone of "you've made a huge profit," Udo displayed the word "shameless" to its fullest.
Hearing Udo's offer, Lin Tianwei couldn't help but let out a chuckle and said:
"I thought that since you came to me to inquire about mu crystal stone transactions, you would at least know a little about me."
"yuan crystals? What are those?"
"I never use such low-grade things; I'm not interested in any transactions involving yuan crystals."
"If you could offer a price of ten thousand units of origin, I might grudgingly agree to your terms."
"It's just a pity that the bargaining chips you've offered simply fail to pique my interest at all."
"As for news concerning my life and fortune?"
"I don't think such news exists."
"I'm actually very curious who is so unafraid of death that they dare to actively seek trouble with me."
"This tone of rushing to one's death, one after another, truly makes me admire."
At this point, Lin Tianwei directly hung up the communication and blacklisted Udo's communication number.
Talking to a low-level Cosmic Beast like Udo was simply a waste of time.
Lin Tianwei felt he was truly foolish to expect Udo to give him even a small surprise.
He also felt that Udo could only surprise him in terms of intelligence,
as every conversation with Udo's foolish words always refreshed Lin Tianwei's low perception of his intelligence.
Lin Tianwei truly found it hard to understand where the other party got the courage to dare to trade such garbage with him.
He didn't even consider whether his bargaining chips matched the trading target.
As for the so-called news from Udo, Lin Tianwei completely scoffed at it.
To make a move against him?
He would prove that this was absolutely the biggest mistake of their lives.
If such foolish Cosmic Beasts truly existed in the universe, Lin Tianwei wouldn't mind killing them to gain a few more powerful Talents.
Or perhaps some food that tasted moderately good.
Casually dismissing the annoying fly, Lin Tianwei once again turned his gaze to the platform.
After a long period of auctioning, the auction had clearly reached its end.
The items to be auctioned next would be the grand finale, which was worth Lin Tianwei's anticipation.
This auction was far grander than Lin Tianwei had imagined, with an endless stream of good items, and the prices were equally exorbitant.
Lin Tianwei was too lazy to haggle over prices bit by bit, so all the auctioned items were sold at a high premium.
Coupled with the fact that origin was inherently more valuable than yuan crystals, Lin Tianwei's small treasury also began to feel the pinch.
No money?
This was completely impossible for Lin Tianwei.
Cutting expenses is not as good as increasing income!
The treasures Lin Tianwei obtained from the Chaos Universe were the target for increasing income.
Given their special formation environment, their purity was generally extremely high, possessing a value far greater than previously estimated.
After learning from the previous lesson with the mu crystal stone, Lin Tianwei once again checked with Luo Ji and did not find any other treasures he could use.
However, Lin Tianwei instantly changed the auction rules for the treasures he was sending for auction.
Origin transaction bidding!
This was Lin Tianwei's only requirement.
In his words, things like yuan crystals were not even wanted by dogs.
Although he felt offended, Luo Ji had to admit that Lin Tianwei had the right to say such a thing.
Perhaps this esteemed sir didn't even know what yuan coins and yuan crystals were, an existence in Legend capable of making the heaven-defying statement, "Why not use origin?"
It was precisely with the support of these treasures that Lin Tianwei dominated this auction, and the title "Source Essence Bro" became widely renowned.
Luo Ji's performance also soared, skyrocketing to a level that made Filiche despair.
Lot 0268: star gleam stone!
Under Lin Tianwei's gaze, Lot 0268 finally slowly revealed its true form.
This was actually a star gleam stone.
A star gleam stone that Lin Tianwei had once desperately needed.
It was precisely because he obtained a star gleam stone that Lin Tianwei completely broke free from the shackles of the Talent star, allowing his body's world to change arbitrarily with his size.
However, Lin Tianwei was very shocked by the size of this star gleam stone.
Nothing else, this star gleam stone was simply too small, actually less than one hundred thousand cubic meters in size.
This size might be large for humans, or large for Blue Star, but for Cosmic Beasts that are tens of thousands of meters long, it was quite small, like a grain of rice.
However, Pan Di did not feel that the star gleam stone he was auctioning was small; instead, he erupted with the most enthusiastic passion, roaring:
"Everyone, look what I've found?"
"Lot 0268 is actually a star gleam stone, a star gleam stone that can allow Cosmic Beasts to break free from their internal shackles!"
"This star gleam stone is also quite voluminous, considered among the largest in size for star gleam stones."
"Truly powerful Cosmic Beasts all need a star gleam stone of their own to allow their internal world to break free from its shackles and grow without limit."
"According to statistics, ninety-nine percent of World Lord Level powerhouses possess a star gleam stone of their own."
"You are only a star gleam stone away from becoming a World Lord Level powerhouse."
"The starting bid is one hundred units of origin, and each increment must not be less than ten units of origin."
"Now I declare the auction for Lot 0268 officially open!"
As soon as Pan Di's words fell, all the Cosmic Beasts were in an uproar.
Although Pan Di's words were unfair, it had to be said that they were full of temptation.
Countless Cosmic Beasts had specifically come to this auction for the star gleam stone.
For a time, the sounds of bidding were incessant, and the price of this star gleam stone quickly reached five hundred units of origin, slightly higher than the previously expected price.
However, Lin Tianwei looked at the star gleam stone that everyone was scrambling for and truly couldn't understand why this rice-grain-sized star gleam stone was so popular.
Is that it? Is that considered big?
If this star gleam stone was considered large among star gleam stones, then what adjective should be used to describe the star gleam stone quietly lying within him, with a volume of hundreds of billions of square meters?
Super-super-super-large?
If Lin Tianwei remembered correctly, this star gleam stone was even smaller than the star gleam stone fragments that once floated around the star gleam stone within his body.
It's just that at that time, Lin Tianwei thought these star gleam stone fragments were impurities, completely useless things.
After collecting the star gleam stone, he no longer bothered with these fragments and had no intention of collecting them.
Yet, he never expected that these star gleam stone fragments, which he looked down upon, could each sell for at least several hundred units of origin.
Lin Tianwei instantly felt like he had missed out on billions, and a feeling of heavy loss arose spontaneously.
Especially after seeing the bidding price in the auction interface, which had already reached one thousand units of origin, Lin Tianwei was even more annoyed.
Why didn't he think that these garbage items he didn't want could also be sold for origin back then?
And at such a high price.
Thinking of this, Lin Tianwei, somewhat unwilling to give up, asked Luo Ji, saying, "Is this star gleam stone really big?"
"Why do I feel like this star gleam stone looks very small?"
Such exaggerated descriptive language might just be Pan Di, that beast-bewitching fellow, talking nonsense.
After all, he was a Cosmic Beast who could even utter such ridiculous statements as "According to statistics, ninety-nine percent of billionaires can afford steamed buns."
star gleam stones are expensive, but that's only for ordinary Cosmic Beasts.
For World Lord Level Cosmic Beasts, a price of one thousand units of origin is merely a trifle, not worth mentioning at all.
Coupled with the unique function of star gleam stones, unless one possesses a special Talent and can compress their internal world at will without relying on the power of star gleam stones, almost all Cosmic Beasts will purchase a star gleam stone for themselves.
So, Pan Di's seemingly tempting promotional words were complete nonsense.
However, Lin Tianwei's expectations were destined to be dashed.
Seeing Lin Tianwei interested in the star gleam stone fragment in front of him, Luo Ji began to patiently explain to Lin Tianwei, saying:
"This star gleam stone is indeed considered relatively large among star gleam stones."
"The reason for this still has to start from the birth of star gleam stones."
"Although there are many possibilities for the birth of star gleam stones, the place generally recognized as the easiest to obtain star gleam stones is in the Nascent Chaos Universe."
"Only in this special environment of the universe's nascent stage is there a high probability of star gleam stones being born."
