Chapter 63 Auction House (Part 1)

Private room, or VIP room.

On the second floor of the auction house, you can clearly see the auction table from the windows.

I learned from Zhou Xun, the general manager of the auction house, that the VIP room on the second floor of the auction house is usually used by wealthy nobles or people with status, including powerful soul masters.

Hanhai City is close to Poseidon Island, and the soul masters from Poseidon Island will occasionally come out to purchase supplies.

Therefore, VIP rooms are usually prepared for them, but not necessarily.

For example, there are occasionally high-level soul masters from land who come here for sightseeing, auctioning and purchasing items.

"Soul masters from Poseidon Island often come to Hanhai City?" Ning Rongrong remembered that Poseidon Island's rules were quite strict, and it seemed that they couldn't leave the island at will.

"Come once a year or two." Zhou Xun shook his head.

"The last time they came, it seemed like two months ago, they usually came to buy some daily necessities, or occasionally visited the auction house."

"So that's it," Ning Rongrong thought thoughtfully. Soul masters are also human beings. They also have to eat, drink and have diarrhea. It is impossible to be completely isolated from the world. Isolation is only relative.

From this point of view, Hanhai City is nominally under the jurisdiction of the Tiandou Empire, but is actually an extension of Poseidon Island.

"I heard that there are many pirates in this sea area. Doesn't Poseidon Island care about it?" Ning Rongrong thought of the original work and asked subconsciously.

Zhou Xun was stunned for a moment after hearing this, looked at the three people in front of him, and said with a wry smile: "Many of those pirates are descendants of the residents of Poseidon Island."

"It is said that Poseidon Island has an extremely strict rule. If you are unable to practice at the age of 18, you will be expelled from Poseidon Island regardless of life or death."

"There are also many residents of Poseidon Island in Hanhai City, right?" Ning Rongrong wanted to know more about Hanhai City.

"Yes." Zhou Xun also saw that among the three, the very delicate-looking girl was the real talker. After thinking for a while, he explained,

"Some of the residents who have been expelled from Poseidon Island will come to live in Hanhai City, while others will become pirates."

Zhou Xun paused for a moment and continued:

"The most famous among pirates is a pirate group called Purple Pearl. The leader's name is Purple Pearl."

"It is said that her parents were thrown out of Poseidon Island because they had no soul power, and then became pirates."

"However, in Purple Pearl's generation, her soul power is very strong. She is close to the Soul Emperor at a young age, and she has also made a name for herself in the sea."

"Actually, she was able to enter Poseidon Island to participate in the assessment, but she didn't. She seemed to be somewhat resistant to Poseidon Island."

"Young?" Dugu Yan blinked, quite curious, "How old is that person named Zi Zhenzhu?"

"Around 27 years old. In terms of soul power, according to the information revealed by her subordinates, it seems to be level 57 or 58."

"Indeed...it's indeed quite powerful." Dugu Yan clicked his tongue.

I am now at level 48 at the age of 19, and I am still confident that I will be close to the Soul Emperor at the age of 27.

But, what are my conditions?

The Qibao Glazed Sect feeds her with food that dazzles her mouth, various medicinal baths, and the blessing of fairy grass.

What about Purple Pearl? Judging from Zhou Xun's words, he is a pirate.

This is a bit outrageous.

"Interesting." Ning Rongrong thought, but quickly dismissed the idea. He looked at the auction house manager who was still talking.

"Mr. Zhou Xun, do you have ten thousand year whale gum here?"

Hearing this, Zhou Xun smiled bitterly and said: "Very few, almost never."

"Whale glue is beneficial to soul masters and can increase their strength. Especially whale glue that is more than a thousand years old is basically impossible to sell. As for whale glue that lasts ten thousand years..."

"To be honest, even the Soul Emperor dare not say that he can easily obtain whale gum from ten-thousand-year-old cetacean soul beasts."

Zhou Xun told Ning Rongrong and others that the power of sea soul beasts in the water is much more terrifying than that of sea soul masters.

Even an ordinary ten-thousand-year-old sea soul beast may not be a match for the Soul Emperor.

In addition, most sea soul beasts appear in groups, so even if you accidentally kill a ten thousand year sea soul beast, you must leave the sea as soon as possible.

The blood will attract the hunting of other soul beasts, or the anger of the sea soul beasts of the same family.

Therefore, it is very difficult to kill a soul beast in the sea, let alone obtain ten thousand year whale glue.

"I see." Ning Rongrong stopped discussing this topic, "Do you have a sea map? Mainly the sea soul beast area, preferably the ten thousand year soul beast."

"This is true." Zhou Xun said quickly. From the words of several people, it can be roughly judged that the other party is here to find whale gum. It is not known what he is doing, and it is none of his business. He is just a small auction house. Steward.

"How much."

"One thousand gold soul coins." Zhou Xun said tentatively.

"Okay." Ning Rongrong directly threw a bag of gold soul coins to Zhou Xun.

Zhou Xun also knew that the people in front of him were wealthy owners, so he thought about it and continued,

"A soul guide left over from ancient times will be auctioned here later. If you are interested, you can take a look."

"Ancient soul guide?"

"Yes..." Just when Zhou Xun was about to elaborate, the doorbell rang at the door, "Manager, the auction is about to begin. Please come over now."

"Oh, okay." Zhou Xun nodded.

"Sorry, everyone, I have to go and appraise the auction items, so I won't interrupt you." As he spoke, Zhou Xun hurriedly opened the door and walked away.

"I'll have someone send the chart over later."

The VIP room door is closed again.

"Hmph, you're a clever guy."

"What's wrong, Grandpa?"

"The general manager of the auction house, he said something about the ancient soul tool at the right time. He probably wanted to sell it for more money, and maybe he saw us as a big business." Dugu Bo said with a smile.

Dugu Yan: "..."

Outrageous, this is outrageous.

However, the Qibao Glazed Sect does have the potential to be a big business.

Ning Rongrong looked out the window. There were many people downstairs. Only the auction table was empty and the auction had not started yet.

Not long after, a young man who looked like an auctioneer walked onto the ring. The first thing he pushed up was the elixir that Dugu Bo had given to the auction manager.

"Everyone, ladies and gentlemen, good afternoon!"

"Today is the once-a-week auction..." After the auctioneer's unhelpful words.

Be the first to introduce the elixir that Dugu Bo gave them.

There are 29 pills in each bottle, three bottles in total, sold in a bundle.

With Dugu Bo's consent, they each tried one pill to confirm its effect.

After the auctioneer finished explaining the effects of the elixir, the soul master below became excited.

Although it is not very medicinal, it can save lives if you can’t hold on!

Taking one before death can kill you, not to mention that in addition to restoring blood, there are antidotes and pills to restore soul power, which are absolutely necessary items for going to sea.

Although it is only effective for those below level 40, and the effect drops off rapidly above level 40, it is still quite a walking auxiliary soul master.

In the end, the elixir was won for 5,000 gold soul coins. Of course, many people were more curious about how it was made.

Ning Rongrong didn't pay too much attention to these. Dugu Yan did take a few auction items. Anyway, in her words, they were not short of money.

"Ding dong——"

The ringing of the doorbell attracted the attention of Ning Rongrong and others.

"Senior, the supervisor asked me to bring over the chart."

Upon seeing this, Ning Rongrong opened the door and took the chart over. Dugu Yan also moved closer and looked at the sea map.

"Well, the black dots are the area for ten-thousand-year-old soul beasts, and the red dots are the area for hundred-thousand-year-old soul beasts?" Dugu Yan said to himself while looking at the introduction at the corner of the area.

"It may not refer to a single soul beast. It is likely that there is a group of soul beasts of about the same age within this range."

"So, you have to be careful in the past." Ning Rongrong saw that there were dozens of black spots indicating ten thousand year soul beasts. This was still a surveyable area, and there might be more of them that were rarely seen by people.

Just then the auctioneer's voice came through the radio.

"Ladies and gentlemen, please watch out. It's time to witness a miracle again."

"Our auction house will auction a soul guide handed down from ancient times."

Ning Rongrong and others couldn't help but walk to the window and look at the center of the auction table.

There was some interest in the legendary ancient soul tool that was slowly pushed out and touted by the auctioneer.
