Huo Yuhao is a person without a sense of belonging.
"Come on, everyone is tired from the game, let's go out and relax."
At night during the break in the round-robin matches, Wang Yan suddenly spoke to everyone.
Everyone followed Wang Yan to an inconspicuous building.
Huo Yuhao recognized this place at a glance—the underground auction house.
Wang Yan said to everyone: "I brought you here today to buy some soul guides, and I hope you can use them in future competitions."
"First, it is for the glory of Shrek. Second, the fusion of soul guides and soul masters is destined to be the development direction of future soul masters."
"I know that you have been cultivating martial spirits all along, and you may be resistant to soul guides, but now we must change."
"As for the money issue, don't worry about it."
Everyone was silent for a moment, then agreed.
Wang Dong suddenly raised his head and said, "Teacher Wang, I don't want to use the soul guide. You guys go ahead. I'll go back first."
After saying that, she turned around and left.
Huo Yuhao looked at her back and said nothing.
"Well, everyone has their own aspirations. Let him be. Let's go to the auction."
Wang Yan shook his head and led everyone into the auction hall.
This underground auction house is very large and is divided into many auction halls. Today is a special auction of soul guides, and the items on auction are soul guides below level six.
"Welcome all distinguished guests to the Starlight Auction House, our auction is about to begin."
As the pleasant voice of the etiquette lady sounded, the auction officially began.
"Level 3 Soul Guide Paralysis Ray, 2,500 Gold Soul Coins."
"Level 4 protective soul guide, 3,200 gold coins."
"Level 4 milk bottle, 25,000 gold soul coins."
Wang Yan bought more than a dozen soul guides and distributed them to everyone.
He Caitou looked at Huo Yuhao, who had nothing in his hands, and asked in surprise: "Yuhao, why... don't you use your soul guide?"
Huo Yuhao looked at him like a fool: "Brother Caitou, I don't have any soul guides on me, do you think it's possible?"
"Then why haven't I seen you use it?"
"I have one in my hand right now, can you see it?"
“I can’t see…”
Huo Yuhao put away the soul guide pistol that was simulated to be hidden and shrugged.
Of course, he was not opposed to soul guides, but he had hardly used them.
Because he is different from other soul masters, although his level is not high, his current attack and defense power are already stronger than the soul guides he can use.
Huo Yuhao’s favorite thing to use is the propulsion soul guide, which can greatly increase his speed.
However, since baby bottles are such a good thing, you should also get yourself a more advanced one.
Before we knew it, the auction had come to the last lot. It was covered in red cloth and pushed to the center of the stage.
Huo Yuhao narrowed his eyes and the old voice of Yin Lex came in his mind.
"Take it, kid."
Chapter 134 The Gold of Living Things
"The following is the final mysterious gift of our auction. It is not a soul guide, but it is a must-have for every soul guide. However, given its value and rarity, it is fully qualified to be on the top auction of our Starlight Auction House. Please take a look."
As the auctioneer, Miss Qingya, introduced the items, the red covering was removed, revealing the items inside.
This item is not big, just a sharp blade about half a foot long and half an inch wide. It is dark in color, with faint patterns and inscriptions on it, exuding an ancient atmosphere.
Many bidders were not satisfied with the last mysterious item, because it was not a high-level soul guide. However, Huo Yuhao recognized it at a glance.
This is a carving knife, a tool used by soul masters to engrave core magic arrays. A good carving knife can make soul masters more efficient when making soul guides.
Huo Yuhao vaguely felt that there was something extraordinary about this carving knife, and Yin Lex was very interested in it and forced him to get it, so it must be extraordinary.
He Caitou, who was standing by, swallowed his saliva, and a hint of fanaticism flashed in his originally honest eyes.
The auctioneer continued, "Some VIPs may not be satisfied with our last lot, thinking it is just a carving knife. But you need to know that carving knives are also ranked."
"There is a carving knife ranking list on Douluo Continent, which lists the top 100 carving knives. Two-thirds of them are in the Sun-Moon Empire, and this is one of the remaining top 100 carving knives on the list."
"It ranks 99th in the ranking of carving knives. Originally, it would have been in the top 30 based on its quality, but it is a cursed carving knife."
He Caitou cried out in amazement: "Could it be the evil sword that will turn against its master, the Soul Devourer?"
The auctioneer nodded and said, "Yes, this is the Soul Devouring Carving Knife, which is known as the evil knife. It has had a total of thirty-seven owners, but all of them died tragically without exception. It is said that it contains the soul of its creator, a terrifying evil soul master, so its ranking has fallen again and again."
After the auctioneer introduced the details of this murderous knife, the bidders who were originally interested remained silent.
"Soul Devouring Carving Knife, starting price is 100,000 gold soul coins, each bid must be no less than 5,000 gold soul coins, the bidding begins."
The Soul-Devouring Knife's notoriety spread far and wide, and no one dared to take a picture of this murderous knife, not even if it was just for collection.
The auctioneer looked at the venue where no one was bidding, sighed secretly, and made the final decision, announcing that the item had failed to be sold.
"Okay, the auction is over. Let's go back. You can try out the soul guides we bought today." Wang Yan said to everyone on the way back to the hotel.
Suddenly, He Caitou asked, "Where is Yuhao?"
Everyone was stunned and looked around, but Huo Yuhao was no longer there.
Starlight Auction.
The auction had just ended, all the bidders had left, but the staff had not left yet.
A ripple suddenly appeared in the space in the middle of the venue, and the disguised Huo Yuhao appeared on the stage out of thin air.
He said calmly, "I want to buy this Soul Devouring Blade. Is 100,000 gold coins enough?"
As he spoke, he stretched out two fingers of his right hand, holding a gold card.
"Dear guest, I'm sorry that our auction house does not accept private transactions." The auctioneer, Miss Qingya, was about to refuse, but when she saw the tulip pattern on the gold card, she was stunned.
Huo Yuhao continued, “Since this Soul Devouring Blade has been sold at a low price, how about selling it to me?”
The auctioneer hesitated for a moment, took the gold card, nodded and said: "Then, VIP, do you want to take it away now? Ordinary storage soul guides cannot withstand it. Our auction house can prepare it for you..."
"No, I'll do it myself."
Huo Yuhao stretched out his hand towards the Soul-Devouring Knife. As soon as his fingers touched the handle, an extremely cold and chilling aura mixed with a terrifying and fierce energy attacked his body.
At the same time, an extreme chill burst out from Huo Yuhao’s Dantian, colliding with the cold and gloomy air on the Soul-Devouring Knife.
The coldness in his body seemed to be more overbearing than the murderous aura on the vicious knife, and he wanted to absorb this fierce aura for his own use.
The Soul-Devouring Knife seemed to be afraid. Its fierce aura quickly changed direction and drilled into Huo Yuhao's sea of consciousness.
"Wow - Bingbing, so scary..." Tianmeng suddenly hid behind Bingdi and quickly used his mental power to guard the place.
The Ice Emperor said in a cold voice: "Get out of here."
The fierce aura suddenly stopped, circled twice and returned to the Soul-Devouring Knife.
The Soul-Devouring Knife that had killed thirty-seven masters was now as quiet as a lamb.
Yin Lex's voice rang in his ears: "This is the gold of living beings, Yuhao, it will have extraordinary benefits for your spiritual sea."
"Leave the rest to me."
Huo Yuhao’s eyes instantly turned gray, and endless deathly silence fell on the Soul-Devouring Knife.
Yin Lex's gray mental power fell on the Soul-Devouring Knife, and the evil knife began to tremble violently, making a buzzing sound like a scream.
The auctioneer standing by was stunned. She thought that Huo Yuhao had just purchased the Soul-Devouring Carving Knife and was attacked backfired. In that case, their auction house would not be free from responsibility.
But soon, Huo Yuhao returned to normal, and his gray eyes returned to ice blue.
The Soul-Devouring Knife stopped buzzing and trembling, and turned into a clear blue color.
"Dear... distinguished guest, are you okay?" the auctioneer asked cautiously.
“I’m fine.” Huo Yuhao put away the Soul Devouring Knife and said calmly, “Give the card back to me.”
"Okay, VIP, one hundred thousand gold soul coins have been deducted from you." The auctioneer bowed respectfully and handed the gold card back to him.
"Thank you."
The space around Huo Yuhao floated and he disappeared in the auction hall.
Yin Lex said in a weak voice: "Yuhao, go back and absorb it quickly. With this gold of living beings, your sea of spirit will be able to transform into a real plane."
"Yeah." Huo Yuhao also felt a little excited.
Star King Hotel, top floor.
It was already late at night when Huo Yuhao returned to his room, but there was still someone standing at the door.
It’s Wang Dong.
She was leaning against the wall with her head down, as if waiting for something. Noticing someone approaching, she subconsciously looked up and then said in surprise: "Yuhao, you are finally back?"
"What are you doing standing at my door?" Huo Yuhao asked knowingly.
"Teacher Wang Yan said you were missing, so I waited for you here. Everyone was going crazy."
Huo Yuhao frowned: "Didn't I tell Brother Caitou that I was going out for a walk?"
"You...you always say you want to go out for a walk. What if you really get lost?" There was a hint of worry in Wang Dong's pale blue eyes.
“Hey, why did you suddenly become so timid after admitting your identity?” Huo Yuhao said with a smile, “Where is the confident Dong brother?”
Wang Dong was stunned for a moment, then he held his head high and said, "Humph, am I not worried about you?"
"Go to bed early. There will be a competition in a few days. You must assist me well then."
“Okay.” Huo Yuhao snapped his fingers.
The two of them returned to their own rooms.
