Beast Ring

Led by a female attendant, Mo Yu slowly entered the auction that was already underway.

As for the black-robed man dressed similarly whom he had encountered earlier, if Mo Yu's guess was right, he was very likely Xiao Yan.

After all, with Old Yao's strength, refining pills capable of making the Mitel Auction House excited was no difficult task.

The moment he entered, the bright surroundings dimmed. Waves of clamor surged into his ears from all directions, making Mo Yu, who preferred quiet, frown deeply.

The auction hall was enormous, and accommodating hundreds or even thousands of people was no problem. At that moment, beneath the lights in the center of the hall, a beautiful woman dressed in a red gown was explaining the function of the item in her hand to everyone present in a sweet, coquettish voice that was so alluring it made people's bones go soft.

Amid the woman's crisp yet intoxicating voice, the price of that actually rather ordinary item was steadily climbing at a feverish pace.

Finding a secluded spot, Mo Yu quietly sat down and swept his gaze over the beautiful woman in the hall.

The Mitel Auction House's Chief Auctioneer, Ya Fei, was a beauty known by practically everyone in Wu Tan City. Her mature and alluring charm had caused countless men to fall at her feet.

Seeing this, Mo Yu also quietly sat down, found a comfortable posture, and slowly enjoyed this wonderful scene.

The Original Work had many beautiful characters, but when it came to allure alone, Ya Fei probably stood head and shoulders above them all...

As Mo Yu sat quietly, his brows suddenly furrowed deeply. A peculiar smell had reached his nose.

He slightly turned his head and looked at a man hidden in the darkness not far from his seat. At that moment, the man was staring fervently at Ya Fei on the platform...

"So this is... a pervert!?" Upon seeing this scene, he muttered in a low voice. Beneath his cloak, a playful smile appeared at the Corner of the Mouth.

Having lived three lives, this was the first time he had truly encountered such a scene.

Thinking of This, Mo Yu hurriedly shifted a little farther away, and the smell gradually faded.

His gaze casually swept over the item in Ya Fei's hand before his eyes suddenly lit up. The next item aroused a strong interest in him.

"Mountain River Stone. After being appraised by the Mitel Auction House, this stone has been found to possess a special use. Although its purpose is currently unknown, it would still make a good collectible.

"The starting price is set at three thousand Gold Coins. Please begin your bids." As Ya Fei covered her mouth and laughed delicately, she somehow raised the value of this stone of unknown purpose by several notches.

Unfortunately, everyone present was shrewd. How could they possibly spend three thousand Gold Coins on a stone of unknown origin and use?

A few people did consider using this opportunity to win Ya Fei's favor, but after looking at their wallets and then at this huge sum of three thousand Gold Coins, they could only shake their heads dejectedly.

Seeing this, the usually gracious and poised Ya Fei could not help feeling somewhat awkward.

Such a cold reception was rare for her.

However, although the use of the Mountain River Stone was unknown, the appraiser had determined that it was precious and extraordinary. Selling it too cheaply would feel like a loss, yet she could not raise the price either.

Just as she found herself caught between a rock and a hard place, a charming middle-aged man's voice suddenly rang out.

"Three thousand Gold Coins. I'll take it!"

That disguised middle-aged man's voice belonged to Mo Yu.

Others did not know the use of the Mountain River Stone, but he knew it all too well.

On the Dou Qi Continent, there was an item known as a Storage Ring. It was forged from the rare material known as a Storage Stone and contained a rare small space that could store objects without life force.

However, on the Divine Firmament Continent, where the Beast Taming Sect flourished, there was an item known as a Beast Ring that could store living things such as Magical Beasts!

And the Mountain River Stone was an important material for refining a Beast Ring!

If the major Beast Taming Sect factions from his Previous Life knew that such a large piece of Mountain River Stone existed, they would probably be willing to spend even a hundred million Gold Coins for it. Three thousand Gold Coins was practically the price of cabbage!

As for refining a Beast Ring, it was not difficult for Mo Yu.

After seeing Mo Yu make his bid, Ya Fei's tense nerves relaxed. She cast a charming smile in the direction he was sitting, then, before the crowd could react, immediately announced, "Three thousand Gold Coins. Sold!"

Seeing Ya Fei's action—whether she had been worried for him and feared someone else would compete, or feared that he might regret it and had therefore hurried to strike the hammer—Mo Yu could only laugh helplessly.

This mature and alluring Woman was actually rather adorable...

After obtaining the Mountain River Stone, none of the items that followed were worth his attention.

He shifted his gaze away from the Woman and slowly moved it around the auction hall.

"Oh, Xiao Yan?" His moving gaze suddenly paused. Mo Yu caught sight of the black-robed man who had just sat down in the distance and thought to himself.

He had no intention of going over to greet him. In a setting like this, it was better to pretend they did not know each other.

As Mo Yu swept his gaze across the hall again, he discovered that not only had Xiao Zhan personally come from the Xiao Family, but the Clan Heads of the other two families of equal fame—the Jialie Family and the Aoba Family—were also present.

"Looks like my Profound-tier Dou Technique is going to sell for a good price!"

Mo Yu's heart stirred. He slightly raised his brows, and a smile appeared at the Corner of the Mouth.

As the three most powerful families in Wu Tan City, their presence would undoubtedly make the auction even more lively.

At that moment, with Ya Fei directing the atmosphere, the hall remained in a constant state of excitement.

"Hehe, everyone, the auction hall just received a new item for auction. I think everyone will definitely be interested." After auctioning off the item in her hand, Ya Fei suddenly said with a smile. With a wave of her jade hand, an attendant hurriedly brought over a jade tray. On it sat a small white jade bottle.

"This is a second-grade pill, the Foundation Establishment Spirit Liquid. It is only effective for those below the Dou Zhe level. Soaking one's body in this spirit liquid while cultivating can increase the Cultivation Speed of those below the Dou Zhe level without damaging their foundations!" Her alluring red lips parted slightly, and the sweet, seductive voice that emerged made everyone's bones tingle.

Upon seeing this item, Mo Yu's heart also stirred. He naturally had no intention of buying it. Something capable of accelerating Dou Qi training without damaging one's foundation was surely the item refined by Old Yao and auctioned off by Xiao Yan.

Since Old Yao had made it, the price would certainly not be low.

Sure enough, in the ensuing fierce competition among the Three Great Families,

it was ultimately won by Xiao Family Patriarch Xiao Zhan for the high price of forty thousand Gold Coins.

Seeing this, Mo Yu could not help clicking his tongue slightly. Alchemists truly made a fortune on the Dou Qi Continent.

If he had the chance, perhaps he could expand into the Alchemist field in this life.

"Hehe, next is an important auction item of this auction!" After putting away the jade bottle, Ya Fei waved her jade hand, and the lights on the High Platform dimmed. She bent slightly and took a tray from beneath the platform. On the tray lay an ordinary black scroll.

"Profound Tier Low-Grade Movement Dou Technique: Nine Flashes of the Roaming Dragon!"
