260: Chapter 259 The Auction of Inside Information! Various Gods and Immortals:

As Lin Feng's voice fell, the atmosphere at the banquet instantly shifted from "A Bite of Heaven" to a "thriller suspense film."

Everyone's eyes were locked onto the small Jade Slip in Lin Feng's hand, as if it weren't a Jade Slip, but a Chaos Divine Thunder ready to explode at any moment.

It was blackmail on the Seven Luminaries Immortal King!

And it was the "uncut version"!

If this thing got out, would the Seven Luminaries Immortal King still have any Face left? Would the glorious image he had painstakingly cultivated for tens of thousands of years still exist?

More importantly, this thing was a political bargaining chip on the level of a nuclear weapon! Whoever got their hands on it would essentially be holding a major piece of leverage over the Seven Luminaries Immortal King!

"Ahem... Grand Marshal Lin, such jokes are not to be made."

A Golden Immortal Old Ancestor who was usually quite close to the Seven Luminaries Immortal King stood up tremblingly, attempting to smooth things over, "His Lordship the Immortal King is virtuous and prestigious; how could he have such... such sordid affairs? It must be a slander by demonic cultivators! If this Jade Slip were to spread, it might harm the harmony of the Heaven..."

"Slander?"

Lin Feng raised an eyebrow and, without a word, directly injected a trace of immortal power into the Jade Slip.

"Hum!"

A light screen projection instantly appeared in mid-air.

Although the image was slightly blurry, one could still clearly see a younger version of the Seven Luminaries Immortal King, butt in the air, lying in the grass beside a hot spring, with an extremely lecherous smile on his Face, drool almost dripping down.

And the image also came with clear audio:

"Tsk tsk tsk, these legs, this waist... truly worthy of being my Master's wife, much more exciting than Junior Sister..."

"Whoa——!!!"

The entire venue was in an instant uproar!

The Golden Immortal Old Ancestor's Face turned green, and he plopped back into his chair, wishing he could gouge out his own eyes.

Oh my god! Is this real?!

It's confirmed! This is ironclad proof!

"How about it? The image quality is not bad, right?"

Lin Feng smiled as he put away the projection, "This is just an appetizer; there is more explosive content to come. For example, 'On How to Quietly Sabotage the Senior Brother to Take His Place', 'On How to Tamper with Account Books to Embezzle Public Funds'..."

"Stop reading! Stop reading!"

In the crowd, several immortal officials who were clearly part of the Seven Luminaries faction were on the verge of a breakdown.

If Lin Feng continued to read, the Seven Luminaries Immortal King wouldn't need to leave his house tomorrow; he might as well just find a block of tofu to smash his head against and die! And as his subordinates, after hearing so many secrets, could they even survive until tomorrow?!

"I bid two hundred billion! I want this Jade Slip! I will take it back... and destroy it in public! To prove the Immortal King's innocence!"

A Star Lord wearing red robes shouted through gritted teeth. He was a die-hard loyalist of the Seven Luminaries and had to stand up to show his loyalty (in reality, he was afraid of being silenced).

"Two hundred billion? Are you trying to brush off a beggar?"

Lin Feng curled his lips in disdain, "This is an exclusive, out-of-print edition! If I were to sell it to hostile forces, for instance... the people on the side of Great Emperor Gouchen, guess how much they would be willing to pay?"

"I bid three hundred billion!"

Sure enough, a silent man in purple robes in the corner suddenly spoke up. He was the spy sent by Great Emperor Gouchen.

"That old geezer Seven Luminaries is usually arrogant and domineering; if this thing is presented to the Great Emperor, it will surely be a great merit!"

"Four hundred billion! I bid on behalf of the Northern Great Emperor Zhenwu!"

"Five hundred billion! I am from the Liuyun Chamber of Commerce; if this thing is printed into a picture book to sell, it will definitely be a bestseller across the entire Immortal Realm! I want to buy the copyright!"

"..."

The scene instantly spiraled out of control.

The original "loyal subjects" were desperately bidding higher to destroy the evidence, while spies from various major forces were madly throwing money to get their hands on the leverage, and even some merchants who feared no Chaos were getting involved.

The price skyrocketed!

Six hundred billion... eight hundred billion... one trillion!

Lin Feng sat in the main seat, crossing his legs, watching this group of immortals who had looked so dignified just moments ago now arguing until they were red in the Face, almost coming to blows over a broken Jade Slip, and he was absolutely delighted inside.

"System, calculate for me, how many critical hit points can the current bids be converted into?"

"[Ding! Detected that the total value of resources promised in the venue is approximately 3.5 trillion top-grade immortal crystals!]"

"[If all are realized and converted, it is estimated that you can obtain critical hit points: 35 trillion!]"

"Only 3.5 trillion? Not enough, still not exciting enough."

A glimmer of craftiness flashed in Lin Feng's eyes.

He suddenly clapped his hands, signaling everyone to be quiet.

"Everyone, since everyone is so enthusiastic, this Marshal cannot be stingy."

"Actually, besides the blackmail on the Seven Luminaries Immortal King, I have some other things here."

Lin Feng, as if performing a magic trick, pulled out a dozen more Jade Slips and lined them up on the table.

"This is 'The Record of Fairy Baihua Secretly Meeting Her Lover Late at Night'..."

"This is 'The Biohazard After Barefoot Great Immortal Takes Off His Shoes'..."

"This is 'Video of a Certain Star Lord Who Wishes to Remain Anonymous Secretly Wearing Women's Clothing and Dancing'..."

"This is..."

As Lin Feng called out the names one by one, the Faces of the immortals below turned pale, and cold sweat streamed down.

Many people subconsciously covered their own storage rings, their eyes filled with terror.

The f*ck is this really a Grand Marshal?

This is clearly the number one paparazzo of the Immortal Realm! The number one information peddler!

Where on earth did he get so much blackmail material?!

Actually, this was all obtained by Huang Fugui in the past few days using his innate Divine Ability "Luck Investigation" and "Void Realm Travel," wandering around and pilfering things. Or it was gossip fragments Lin Feng obtained by soul-searching some captured prisoners through the System.

Although many were trivial matters, being exposed on such an occasion was a social death scene!

"Um... Grand Marshal Lin, that Jade Slip about the women's clothing... ahem, I bid one hundred billion! I'll buy it! Immediately! Right now!"

A mighty and robust man suddenly jumped up, his Face flushed red, and he threw a Storage Pouch directly onto the stage.

"The Fairy Baihua one... I'm buying it out! Nobody compete with me!"

"I'll buy the Barefoot Great Immortal one! Don't play it! I beg you!"

For a time, the entire banquet turned into a large-scale "hush money" payment scene.

In order to save their Face, the immortals truly spent a fortune! They were almost emptying out their family fortunes!

"Good, good, good! Everyone line up, one by one! I accept immortal crystals, Magic Treasure, Medicinal Pill, and spirit mineral mortgages!"

"Fugui! Collect the money! Keep the accounts!"

Lin Feng was grinning from ear to ear, and Huang Fugui was so busy he was scrambling, his hands cramping from collecting money, and his newly grown tail was knotted with joy.

In just half an hour.

Lin Feng's System balance skyrocketed again!

"[Current critical hit points balance: 58 trillion!]"

Fifty-eight trillion!

This was even more profitable than robbery! This was practically harvesting leeks from the entire Immortal Realm!

"Awesome!"

Lin Feng looked at the crazily rising numbers, feeling that he was one step closer to becoming a Grand Unity Golden Immortal.

However, just as this absurd and crazy auction reached its climax.

"Boom!!!"

A loud bang, and the barrier above Tiance Mansion was suddenly forcibly torn open by someone!

An Aura so terrifying it made everyone suffocate descended like a pouring celestial river!

"Lin Feng!!!"

"You have gone too far!!!"

Accompanied by a roar filled with endless fury, a massive golden palm print, carrying an Aura of world-destroying power, slammed down fiercely toward the banquet below!

The Seven Luminaries Immortal King (his Clone) finally couldn't help it and personally entered the fray!
