It was said that Huang Mao was good, but it became the fairy's white moonlight

Chapter 350: A Different Dinglu Auction (Two in One)

"Master, Master, what exactly is a cauldron? Is it a tool for making medicine?"

Faced with Lei Mu's questions, Han Mo originally didn't want to answer such questions, but he couldn't resist the silicone maid's strong desire for knowledge.

Glancing at the auction stage which had not yet begun, he sighed and briefly explained:
"You said that was an alchemy furnace. The so-called cauldron furnace is a cultivator with certain special physiques that can be used to replenish the cultivators in order to increase the speed of cultivation or break through bottlenecks."

"Hey, is it like taking pills to speed up your cultivation?"

"Similar, but what he 'eats' is not elixir, but this cultivator with a special physique, and the way he eats is similar to dual cultivation..."

Having said that, Dinglu is somewhat different from general dual cultivation. In dual cultivation, both parties benefit, while Dinglu is simply a form of replenishing energy, which only benefits the party doing the replenishing.

Of course, although the cauldron and the furnace are different from dual cultivation, this is basic common sense in the world of immortal cultivation.

The knowledge of the silicone maid was almost entirely inherited from the witch god. Logically speaking, with the witch god's long experience, he should not be unfamiliar with what a "dinglu" is.

However, when Lei Mu was transformed by Han Mo, she was eroded and lost some modules, resulting in her not completely inheriting all of the memories and abilities of the Witch God.

This is also what Han Mo has been thinking about. If he wants to improve Lei Mu's combat effectiveness, he may need to complete these missing modules.

After all, although Lei Mu now has the combat power of the peak of the Nascent Soul stage, he still needs to go to Luojing soon.

In Zhongzhou, where Nascent Souls are everywhere, Golden Cores are worse than dogs, and Incarnations are everywhere, the cultivation level of a peak Nascent Soul is still not enough.

Therefore, it is necessary to improve Lei Mu's strength...

"Dear distinguished guests, welcome to our Treasure House. Sorry to have kept you waiting. The auction is now officially starting!"

Just as Han Mo was thinking this, the auction finally began with the appearance of an old man on the stage.

Since the news had been released long before, most monks had guessed that the most attractive item in this auction would be the so-called "Dinglu".

This is indeed the case, with several items seemingly precious and a big gimmick.

But in reality, the auction items were not very useful or niche at all, but they were sold at a rare high price that exceeded the market price. The atmosphere on the scene was also heated up to the highest point... The main course was finally served.

Under the enthusiastic and expectant gazes of the monks, an iron cage covered with black cloth was lifted onto the stand by several strong men.

At the other end of the venue, under the attention of Han Mo's powerful Nascent Soul consciousness, those sneaky blood demons also became a little impatient because of the appearance of this auction item.

While they were agitated, they seemed to be whispering and communicating something.

Seeing this scene, Han Mo's mouth curled up slightly. It seemed that his guess was correct.

There is actually a hidden side storyline in this auction house.

Thinking of this, he once again turned his gaze to the "items" on the stand. The cage was not covered with ordinary black cloth, but some kind of magical weapon that had the function of concealing spiritual consciousness.

Although the magic weapon that can only block spiritual consciousness cannot stop Han Mo's Nascent Soul level spiritual consciousness from detecting.

However, such rough behavior of forced investigation would inevitably reveal some traces, and this auction house was after all a public place. Considering that he had just arrived in Yuanzhou, Han Mo thought it would be better to keep a low profile.

“The Purple Cloud Sword just now is the highlight of this auction. Congratulations to Fellow Daoist Li for winning it.

Next, we have the last treasure of this auction. I believe that all of you distinguished guests have heard about this item a long time ago.

That’s right, this thing is the rare treasure that my Treasure House spent a huge amount of money to capture from the Western Regions—

A living blood demon can greatly help improve its cultivation through nourishment, which is comparable to a tonic pill!"

As soon as the old man finished speaking, there was a burst of exclamations from the audience.

It can be seen that the old man who presided over the auction was very experienced. Although he was obviously just a piece of good stuff, he managed to arouse three points of emotion and aroused the expectations of all the monks.

Of course, this is also because the quality of the "auction items" themselves is good enough. Otherwise, no matter how much he praises them, things that are not worth it are still not worth it to the monks.

The so-called "blood demons" are naturally the blond-haired and blue-eyed demons that Han Mo had detected before.

This is a kind of monster that likes to suck blood. It has both human characteristics and monster blood, but it is not a half-monster hybrid.

The Blood Demon came from the Western Regions. It is said that it was not originally a demon tribe from the Western Regions, but came from farther west.

However, since the closure of the Underworld Mountain, this group of blood demons could not return to their hometown, and finally could only settle in the western region of the Great Zhou.

Of course, although they are a race of demons that migrated from outside, it is rumored that the blood demons are not native to the Eight Desolate World, but a kind of creation created by some ancient cultivators.

However, as time passed, the ancient monks disappeared one after another, and these blood demons suddenly gained freedom for some unknown reason, so they fled to the Western Regions.

Since these blood monsters haunt the Western Regions, in the thirteen states of the Great Zhou, except for Xiliang State, it is almost impossible to see these monsters in the other states on a normal day.

But now it has been caught and auctioned off as an item.

“I believe everyone knows how rare this monster is, and its cultivation level is also in the middle stage of foundation building.

I won't say any more, let's start the auction. The starting price for this monster is 10,000 Spiritual Stones, and the price can be increased by 1,000 Spiritual Stones each time."

The old man did not give much introduction and directly announced that the final auction had officially begun.

As soon as he finished speaking, many monks started quoting their prices almost without any pause.

Of course, there is actually no need for him to introduce it in detail. Apart from anything else, just considering the rarity of this blood demon in the Thirteen States of the Great Zhou, it is indeed a rare treasure.

However, if it was just a very rare blood demon, it would not have caused such a strong reaction from the many cultivators present.

Especially since the person who hosted the auction also mentioned that this blood demon cultivator had reached the middle stage of foundation building, for most low- and middle-level cultivators, it would definitely be a big profit to have a cauldron in the foundation building stage.

Not to mention that the old man added another sentence to liven up the atmosphere:
“By the way, this monster also possesses a ‘burning fire constitution’. If it is cultivated to the false elixir stage, and a cultivator with fire spiritual roots uses it to nourish its body, the probability of breaking through to the elixir stage may increase by 10% or 20%!”

Breakthrough to the Jindan stage? ! !

As soon as these words were spoken, they immediately aroused great enthusiasm among the low- and middle-level cultivators on the scene, and the bidders became more and more enthusiastic.

After all, for them, being able to become a high and mighty Jindan Zhenren is something they would like to achieve in their dreams.

You know, cultivating immortals is cruel. It is very difficult for ordinary cultivators or independent practitioners to break through the golden elixir stage.

Not only do you need to make all kinds of adequate preparations, but you also need great opportunities.

If one has poor aptitude, such as a cultivator with three spiritual roots or pseudo spiritual roots, it is likely that he will have no hope of forming a pill in this lifetime!

Therefore, now that there is a great opportunity that can increase the probability of forming a pill, it is enough to drive these middle and low-level cultivators crazy.

As soon as Laozi finished speaking, bids came one after another. In just a few breaths, the price rose from 10,000 spirit stones to 100,000, and there was a trend of continued rapid growth.

This is one hundred thousand spirit stones!

You know, Han Feiyu asked Han Mo to act like a dandy at the beginning, and each time he threw a bag of spirit stones to him, the number was no more than thirty to fifty thousand.

It has to be said that Linyuan Province is worthy of being the commercial capital and the wealthy place in the southeast. Even with the wealth of a foundation-building cultivator, he can easily come up with 100,000 spirit stones.

This also once again refreshed Han Mo's understanding of the wealth of Linyuanzhou.

Of course, despite his sigh, Han Mo had no intention of making an offer.

Even though a hundred thousand spirit stones were nothing to him now, he could even come up with ten times more spirit stones.

But being able to take it out is one thing, and spending so much money to buy a useless thing is another.

That's right, useless things.

This cauldron is completely useless to Han Mo now.

Not to mention that he is already a Jindan cultivator now, even if he has not yet broken through to the Jindan stage, he will definitely not spend this money to buy a mere foundation-building cauldron to increase this illusory chance of a breakthrough.

If he wanted to find someone to practice dual cultivation with, a female cultivator at the Nascent Soul stage, or a female cultivator at the Spiritualization stage, would probably have to line up to ask him to practice dual cultivation with her. Of course, although Han Mo looked down on this auction item, he had another purpose for coming here.

At this moment, he had already divided half of his attention and was keeping a close eye on those cloaked figures.

It is known that these sneaky figures are blood demons, and the one on the auction table is also a Dinglu blood demon, so the purpose of their coming here is naturally clear.

Most of them come to save their own people.

Of course, this group of blood demons are not brainless. In order to save people, they rushed forward and robbed people.

After all, this is the main city of the human race. After some discussion, several people dispersed among the crowd.

Then, taking advantage of the gap between people's bidding, he suddenly shouted:
"Master Qian, you just talked a lot about the benefits of this blood demon on the stage, but you were just talking nonsense. Why don't you let us open our eyes?"

Because everyone was bidding so fiercely, and the old man surnamed Qian did not give everyone much time to react before starting the auction directly, most people overlooked one point.

Wait, before the old man started the auction, he didn’t seem to lift the black cloth to let them inspect the goods!
Thus, after being "reminded" by this person, the monks in the venue suddenly came to their senses.

"That's right, Master Qian. Why don't you lift the black cloth and let us see what this blood demon looks like?"

"Although we cultivators don't care about appearance when we collect essences, beautiful women are easier to sell for a good price!"

"Hey, brother, why do you have to speak so vulgarly? I have heard that this blood demon was created by an ancient cultivator. I have never seen one before, so I am a little curious today..."

As these shouts fell, a chorus of echoes suddenly rang out in the conference hall.

On the stands, someone clearly asked to inspect the goods, but the old man surnamed Qian was reluctant to lift the black cloth.

This immediately caused an uproar among the crowd below.

"Master Qian, why have you been delaying our efforts to test this blood demon? Is there something fishy going on?"

A few more questioning voices were raised.

The one who started the trouble was obviously one of the blood demons.

Obviously, this group of blood demons were very smart. They did not choose to rob openly, but instead waited for an opportunity to disrupt the auction.

The method used to stir up trouble is generally difficult to spot. After all, such "spectators" are indispensable wherever you are, even in the world of cultivating immortals.

Not counting the few VIPs in the VIP room on the second floor, there are at least hundreds of people participating in the auction in the venue at this moment.

With so many cultivators participating in the auction, it is naturally impossible for everyone to be able to afford or be willing to spend 100,000 spirit stones to buy a mere cauldron.

Even though they are short of money or unwilling to spend money, it does not mean that they are not interested in eating melons.

Now that they have the chance to catch a glimpse of the rare blood demon in the Great Zhou, how could they give up easily?

So everyone started to make a fuss, and for a while the crowd was very angry.

This scene also made Mr. Qian on the stage curse in his heart.

Of course, there was a reason why their company concealed this auction item.

He thought he could get away with it with his sophisticated skills, but he didn't expect that he would fail halfway!

Seeing the excitement among the audience, the financiers who had made offers began to hesitate.

Considering the credibility and reputation of the business, it would be impossible to convince the public if the black cloth was not lifted at this moment.

"Everyone, don't worry. This blood demon is afraid of sunlight, so it has been covered with a black cloth. But now that you want to see it, I will not stop you..."

In the end, the old man could only comfort him helplessly, and then ordered someone to lift the black cloth.

Wow——!
As the black cloth fell to the ground, everyone, including Han Mo, turned their heads immediately.

Finally, I saw the person in the cage.

"Oh my god, isn't this a beauty?"

This was the first reaction of everyone present. They were all stunned by the beauty of the person in the cage.

This is a beautiful woman with blonde hair, blue eyes, a feminine complexion, but an extremely delicate appearance!
But there are still a small number of cultivators, including Han Mo, who is immune to beauty and has seen too many beauties.

His first focus was not on the beauty's looks, but...

The beauty in front of him was indeed very beautiful, with a strong feminine aura, and her cultivation was indeed at the Foundation Establishment stage. As for her fire constitution, although it could not be seen, one could feel the strong fire-attributed demonic power around her body.

There is nothing wrong with these, the real problem is...

On the beauty's elegant and long neck, there was a big, eye-catching Adam's apple!

Look at his unusually flat chest...

Damn, isn’t this clearly a male demon?
What kind of business is your treasure storage building doing?
Why is the person auctioning the tripod furnace a man?
Maybe someone will say at this time, it’s so annoying, why can’t men be the cauldron, you are discriminating!

That's true, but in the world of Eight Desolations, things like buying cauldrons and furnaces are usually done by male cultivators, while female cultivators cannot bring themselves to do so.

In other words, your customers are all male practitioners, but you are still selling a cauldron for men. Isn't this just fooling people?

You know, the world's customs are not yet open enough to allow dual cultivation with the same sex?
Of course, the existence of some Kun cultivators cannot be ruled out.

But this kind of Kun cultivators are a minority after all, even though this blood demon claims to be able to help people form elixirs.

But if you really want this group of monks to go and collect the essence, do they really have to pick chrysanthemums under the eastern fence?
Even if one is willing to do such a thing for the sake of cultivation, he will inevitably be laughed at if he auctions it off in public.

So all of a sudden, all the people who were happily bidding before, stopped bidding and no longer had the intention to make any bids.

This immediately made the old man surnamed Qian on the stage very anxious.

They covered it with black cloth because they were concerned that it was a male blood demon.

Considering that if someone really bought it at a high price and found out it was a man after returning home, they would most likely accept it.

After all, this blood demon is quite good-looking and can help people form elixirs, so it is possible that he will keep it and enjoy it secretly.

After all, since it has not been exposed, no one knows whether he is a Kun cultivator or not.

But now, once this matter is exposed, no one may dare to try it in public.

But even so, as the host of the auction, he couldn't let the auction fail.

Just as the old man surnamed Qian was trying desperately to save the situation and appease everyone, a voice suddenly rang out from below:
"Master Qian, can you keep this melon ripe... No, can you keep this blood demon virgin?"

After hearing these words, Han Mo almost couldn't hold back and laughed out loud.

He couldn't help but laugh, but this blood demon was really going too far.

If the behavior just now still had some meaning of being a spectator, but now it was obviously looking for trouble.

Therefore, Master Qian at the booth also realized that it seemed like someone was deliberately causing trouble.

But even if he saw it, as things had come to this point, the old man surnamed Qian couldn't think of any good solution for the time being.

It seemed that the plan of this group of blood demons was about to succeed - they would successfully disrupt the auction and cause the blood demon to fail to be sold.

This way, they can proceed to the next rescue operation.

Unexpectedly, also here, on the second floor of the auction venue, a lazy but somewhat domineering female voice suddenly sounded:
"This blood demon is wanted by my Blood Killing Palace. Who dares to snatch it from me?"
