Chapter 474 Rejected the Invitation

The system's voice sounded again, and this time, the system directly gave the lottery results.

"Soul fusion skill: Netherworld White Tiger?" Lu Yu was slightly surprised when he heard this.

He didn't expect that he would actually draw a martial soul fusion skill.

You know, martial soul fusion skills are very rare.

In the entire Douluo Continent, there are only a handful of people who possess the skill of soul fusion.

But he didn't expect that he also possessed a martial soul fusion skill.

"System, how do I use this martial soul fusion skill?" Lu Yu asked in his heart as he looked at the introduction of the martial soul fusion skill on the system panel.

"The host only needs to communicate with the soul master who possesses the White Tiger Martial Soul, and then he can perform this martial soul fusion technique." The system explained.

"So that's how it is." Lu Yu suddenly realized after hearing this.

He didn't expect that the conditions for using this martial soul fusion technique would be so simple.

However, Lu Yu also knew that it was not easy to find a soul master with the White Tiger Martial Soul.

After all, the White Tiger Martial Spirit is extremely rare.

"Forget it, let's not worry about this for now." Lu Yu shook his head and put the matter of the martial soul fusion technique out of his mind.

The most important thing now is to improve your own strength.

Only if he is strong enough can he survive better in this world where the strong are respected.

In the following days, Lu Yu once again devoted himself to cultivation.

And time passed quietly during Lu Yu's practice.

In the blink of an eye, a year has passed.

During this year, Lu Yu's strength has also greatly improved.

His soul power level has increased from thirty-two to forty-two.

And his first martial soul also successfully attached a fourth soul ring, a ten thousand year old black soul ring.

He obtained this spirit ring when he hunted down a ten thousand year old spirit beast during a training session.

"Finally, I've been promoted to level 42." Lu Yu looked at the blue crystal ball in his hand, his eyes flashing with excitement.

As night fell, the entire Tiandou City was engulfed in brilliant lights. The magnificent auction venue in the center of Tiandou City was like a bright pearl, glittering in the night.

This day was the day when the large-scale Tiandou auction was held as scheduled. The entire Tiandou City, and even the entire Tiandou Empire, were boiling with excitement for this grand auction. Countless powerful people, nobles, and wealthy businessmen gathered here just to see the rare treasures at this auction.

Lu Yu stood outside the gate of the auction venue, holding the VIP token tightly in his hand. This token was obtained from Xue Qinghe before, and with it, he could easily enter the auction.

Looking at the magnificent auction venue in front of him, Lu Yu's eyes flashed with anticipation. This auction must have what he needs.

"Please show your token." A waiter dressed in gorgeous uniform walked up to Lu Yu and said respectfully.

Lu Yu smiled slightly and handed over the VIP token in his hand. The waiter took the token, looked at it carefully, and suddenly showed a look of awe on his face.

"Oh, you are the distinguished guest. Please follow me." The waiter respectfully gestured for Lu Yu to walk into the auction venue.

Passing through the magnificent door, Lu Yu felt his eyes light up. The interior of the auction venue was decorated extremely luxuriously. Huge crystal chandeliers hung from the ceiling, illuminating the entire venue like daylight. The precious artworks displayed around were even more dazzling.

"Dear guest, your box is here. Please follow me." The waiter led Lu Yu through the bustling crowd and came to an independent box.

Lu Yu nodded slightly and walked into the box. The interior of the box was decorated very elegantly, with a large soft couch placed in the center. The windows around it were made of special materials, so that the outside scene could be clearly seen without being noticed by people outside.

Lu Yu sat down on the couch and closed his eyes to rest. The auction would not start for a while, so he could use this time to adjust his state.

At this moment, the door of the box was suddenly pushed open, and a handsome middle-aged man in a gorgeous robe strode in.

"Are you Mr. Lu Yu?" The middle-aged man looked at Lu Yu and asked with a smile.

Hearing this, Lu Yu opened his eyes and looked at the middle-aged man in front of him. His heart moved slightly. He recognized the identity of this middle-aged man. He was the leader of the Seven Treasures Glazed Sect, Ning Fengzhi.

"It's Sect Master Ning. I'm sorry for not welcoming you in person." Lu Yu stood up, bowed and said with a smile.

Ning Fengzhi smiled slightly, waved his hand and said, "My dear friend Lu Yu, you are too polite. I am here to visit you abruptly, I hope you don't mind."

Hearing this, Lu Yu smiled and shook his head and said, "I feel honored that Sect Master Ning can come here in person."

Ning Fengzhi sat down on the couch opposite Lu Yu, looked at Lu Yu and said, "My dear Lu Yu, I heard that you would attend the auction today, so I came to visit you specially."

Lu Yu's heart was slightly moved when he heard this. Ning Fengzhi must have come here for some purpose.

"I wonder what brings you here, Sect Master Ning?" Lu Yu asked with a smile.

Ning Fengzhi looked at Lu Yu with a sincere look on his face: "My dear friend Lu Yu, my Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect has always been looking for talented people. I see that you are gifted and have extraordinary strength, so I came here specially to invite you to join my Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect."

Lu Yu was slightly shocked when he heard this. He didn't expect that Ning Fengzhi came here to persuade him to join the Seven Treasures Glazed Sect.

The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, as one of the three major sects in the Heaven Dou Empire, was extremely powerful and profound. As the leader of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, Ning Fengzhi had the strength of a Titled Douluo, so one could imagine how respected his status was.

If he could join the Seven Treasures Glazed Sect, it would undoubtedly be an excellent choice for Lu Yu. However, Lu Yu was a little hesitant. He had his own path to follow. If he joined the Seven Treasures Glazed Sect, he would be bound by the sect's rules.

"Thank you for your kindness, Sect Master Ning. It's just that Lu Yu is used to living a free and unrestrained life and doesn't like being restricted, so..." Lu Yu declined with a smile.

Ning Fengzhi did not show a disappointed look on his face when he heard this. Instead, he smiled and said, "Little friend Lu Yu, there is no need to rush to refuse. I know that you have your own path to follow. However, my Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect will not restrict your freedom. You can leave at any time. Moreover, my Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect has abundant resources and powerful strength, and can provide great help to you."

Lu Yu's heart was slightly moved when he heard this. He had to admit that what Ning Fengzhi said was indeed very attractive. However, he still had concerns in his heart.

"Thank you for your kindness, Sect Master Ning, but Lu Yu still has some concerns in his heart, so..." Lu Yu declined again.

Ning Fengzhi sighed and said, "If that's the case, I won't force you. But I hope you can remember that the door of my Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect will always be open to you."

Hearing this, Lu Yu smiled and nodded, saying, "Thank you, Sect Master Ning, for your understanding."

Ning Fengzhi stood up, looked at Lu Yu and said, "Okay, I won't bother you anymore. The auction is about to start. Just enjoy the auction."

After saying that, Ning Fengzhi turned around and left the box.

Lu Yu looked at Ning Fengzhi's departing back and couldn't help but sigh in his heart. Ning Fengzhi was a rare person. He was able to put aside his status as a clan leader and come to him in person to win him over. This sincerity and broad-mindedness were extremely rare.

At this moment, the crystal screen in the box suddenly lit up, and an auctioneer in a gorgeous uniform appeared on the screen.

"Dear guests, welcome to the Tiandou Auction. I am the auctioneer of this auction. Now, the auction officially begins." The auctioneer said with a smile.

As the auctioneer finished speaking, precious items began to be presented to the crowd. There were precious medicinal herbs, powerful soul guides, mysterious soul bones... Every item caused exclamations from the crowd present.

Lu Yu sat in the box, watching the auction quietly. His eyes swept over the items, looking for what he needed.

At this moment, an item caught his attention. It was a small and exquisite soul guide, emitting a faint blue light, which looked extremely mysterious.

"This item is an extremely precious soul guide called the 'Blue Ice Jade Flute'. It can not only amplify the user's soul power, but also play magical music, causing powerful mental attacks on the enemy. The starting price is 500,000 gold coins." The auctioneer introduced.

When Lu Yu heard this, a gleam of light flashed in his eyes. He didn't expect that he could encounter a spiritual soul guide here. This was undoubtedly an excellent thing for him.

"Six hundred thousand gold coins." Lu Yu shouted without hesitation.

His voice, through the loudspeaker in the box, was clearly transmitted throughout the auction venue. Immediately, it attracted the attention of everyone present. They did not expect that someone would be willing to bid 600,000 gold coins to bid for this blue ice jade flute.

"Seven hundred thousand gold coins." At this moment, a voice sounded and started bidding with Lu Yu.

Lu Yu frowned slightly when he heard this. He didn't expect that someone would dare to bid against him. However, he didn't panic, but shouted again: "800,000 gold coins."

"Nine hundred thousand gold coins." The voice sounded again, as if it was determined to compete with Lu Yu to the end.

Lu Yu sneered when he heard this. He didn't expect that this person would be so ignorant. In this case, don't blame him for being rude.

"One million gold coins." Lu Yu shouted again. His voice was full of unquestionable meaning.

This time, the voice finally fell silent. Obviously, he didn't expect Lu Yu to be so wealthy that he was willing to bid one million gold coins for the blue ice jade flute.

"One million gold coins once, one million gold coins twice, and one million gold coins three times. Deal! This blue ice jade flute belongs to this distinguished guest." The auctioneer shouted excitedly.

As the auctioneer finished speaking, a waiter carried the blue ice jade flute and walked into the box where Lu Yu was.

Lu Yu took the blue ice jade flute and looked at it carefully. It was engraved with complicated patterns and emitted a faint blue light, which looked extremely mysterious.

"Yes, it is indeed a good thing." Lu Yu nodded with satisfaction.

At this moment, the crystal screen in the box lit up again. The auctioneer appeared on the screen again, holding an item in his hand.

"Dear guests, the next item is an extremely precious soul bone. It comes from a ten-thousand-year-old soul beast and contains powerful strength and skills. The starting price is three million gold coins," the auctioneer introduced.

When Lu Yu heard this, his eyes instantly became hot. He didn't expect to encounter a ten thousand year soul bone here. This was undoubtedly an extremely important thing for him.

"Five million gold coins." Lu Yu shouted without hesitation. His voice was full of unquestionable meaning.

This time, no one dared to compete with Lu Yu. They all knew that Lu Yu was a wealthy man and they could not afford to offend him.

"Five million gold coins once, five million gold coins twice, and five million gold coins three times. Deal! This ten thousand year old soul bone belongs to this distinguished guest." The auctioneer shouted excitedly.

As the auctioneer finished speaking, a waiter carried the ten thousand year old soul bone into the box where Lu Yu was.

Lu Yu took the Ten Thousand Year Soul Bone and examined it carefully. He saw a faint fluorescence emitting from it, which contained powerful power.

"Yes, it is indeed a good thing." Lu Yu nodded with satisfaction. With this ten thousand year soul bone, his strength will definitely be greatly improved again.

In the following time, Lu Yu bid for several precious items. Among them, there were both precious medicinal materials and powerful soul guides. Each item greatly improved Lu Yu's strength.

Finally, with the final lot sold,

Ning Fengzhi brought Sword Douluo and Bone Douluo to visit Lu Yu in person, which was definitely a big event for the Tiandou Empire.

You know, as one of the top three sects, the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect's leader is of noble status and has a transcendent position. It is extremely difficult to meet Ning Fengzhi on a normal day, let alone Ning Fengzhi visiting in person.

Today, Ning Fengzhi not only came in person, but also brought two Titled Douluo from the sect. Such a scene could probably only be compared with the imperial family.

"Master, do we really have to visit that Lu Yu in person?"

Bone Douluo Gu Rong frowned slightly, feeling a little unhappy.

In his opinion, their Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect had already given Lu Yu enough face by sending a Soul Saint to invite him, which was considered a respect for Lu Yu.

But what about Lu Yu?

He was so ungrateful that not only did he reject the invitation, but he also injured the people they sent. It was simply outrageous.

"Uncle Gu, please be patient."

Ning Fengzhi had a smile on his face and a calm expression, without any sign of anger.

"Since Lu Yu was able to defeat Uncle Jian's sword energy clone, his strength must be strong. It is only right for us to pay him a personal visit."
