Upon returning to Qingshan Town, after checking on Xiao Yi Xian's cultivation progress, Mo Tang hid in his room and began to study his own gains from this experience.
The main ones are actually those Companion Purple Crystal Source...
The Companion Purple Crystal Source was originally in a sphere the size of a head. After Mo Tang used the Purple Spirit Crystal to break through the solid outer shell, the remaining amethyst source liquid was only contained in six small bottles.
The Companion Purple Crystal Source contains the purest energy, so much so that it can even elevate a fourth-tier Little Purple Crystal Winged Lion King to the fifth tier in an instant—a difference that is unimaginable.
Of course, the reason why the Little Purple Crystal Winged Lion King was able to skip a level directly was not only due to the power of the Companion Purple Crystal Source, but also related to its own bloodline power.
Regardless of the circumstances, there is no doubt that this Companion Purple Crystal Source is a huge energy source.
Mo Tang picked up a medicine bottle filled with Amethyst Source Liquid—
"Mid-grade Energy detected: 500 points. Absorb?"
"Whether."
One bottle of Purple Crystal Source Liquid is worth 500 Mid-grade Energy. Mo Tang has a total of six bottles, which means he can exchange them for 3,000 Mid-grade Energy points.
To be honest, this is a huge amount of Energy Points...
But Mo Tang has no intention of absorbing and transforming it.
"Hmm, after converting all the Demonic Beast Magic Core I obtained this time, I still have 550 Low-grade Energy points, enough to only increase my cultivation by one star. The rest will only be enough to learn the basics of the Floating Willow Movement Technique..."
He is currently Seven-Star Dou Grandmaster. To advance to Dou Ling, he would need nearly a thousand points of Low-grade Energy and nearly a thousand points of Mid-grade Energy.
He still has some Mid-grade Energy, but his Low-grade Energy is much weaker.
After much deliberation, Mo Tang finally made his decision.
Next, he planned to return to Black Rock City and auction off the fourth-tier Thunder Attribute Demonic Core and a bottle of Companion Purple Crystal Source.
At this very moment, the annual Autumn Grand Auction at Miter Auction House was in full swing, and the crowds attending the Auction had already packed the entire street.
Following the flow of people, Mo Tang slowly entered the auction house hall.
Although this wasn't the first time I'd been here, I'd never seen so many people before.
Fortunately, the Miter Auction House has a large enough area that even with a large crowd, the hall does not feel too crowded.
Mo Tang wasn't there to attend the Auction, so his destination and the crowd gradually separated.
Because it was during a major auction, the bidding process had changed slightly.
The most obvious change is that there are no longer dedicated staff to assist participants in auctions; instead, they must go to the Treasure Appraisal Room to have their items appraised themselves.
Stepping into the so-called Treasure Appraisal Room, Mo Tang was somewhat taken aback to find...
This sizable interior space was neatly divided into no fewer than a hundred small secret rooms, which looked like they were made temporarily, probably as a measure to avoid revealing the guests' treasures.
As soon as Mo Tang entered the Treasure Appraisal Room, a scantily clad maid approached him, her sweet voice carrying a hint of allure. "Sir, are you here for a price appraisal before joining this autumn Auction?"
Mo Tang nodded. "Yes."
"Plz follow me."
The maid smiled charmingly, then turned around, her serpentine waist swaying in an extremely alluring arc.
Mo Tang raised an eyebrow, not expecting that the Miter Auction House would ultimately succumb to the common practice.
Having such a seductive maid as a hostess, if someone stares at her for too long, wouldn't they be filled with lustful desires...?
However, this is exactly what the auction house wants to see, because those who are consumed by evil are most likely to make impulsive decisions.
Judging from this, the maids here must have all undergone special training on how to maximize their charm in the eyes of men.
Watching all this with a smile, Mo Tang was led by the alluring little maid to a Treasure Appraisal Room.
"Hehe, please have a seat, sir. And please bring out the item you wish to have appraised."
Inside, an elderly man with white hair, sitting behind a table, chuckled softly.
That's more like it.
Those who are truly capable are all these white-haired old men with an air of otherworldly wisdom; this is an eternal truth in novels.
"A fourth-tier Thunder Attribute Demonic Core?"
The old man was slightly surprised when he saw the fist-sized purple Magic Core in the box.
After a careful examination, the old man nodded slightly and said, "A peak fourth-tier Thunder Attribute Demonic Core!"
"Given its rarity, this item is certainly worthy of being one of the official auction items at the conference three days from now. I wonder if the guest would be interested?"
Mo Tang nodded directly.
Seeing this, the old man was very pleased.
After all, being able to appraise such a precious auction item could significantly boost his sales performance.
However, when he opened another Jade Bottle, his expression immediately changed!
"This... this is...?"
The old man stared in shock at the viscous purple liquid in the medicine bottle, his face filled with astonishment and confusion.
"May I ask, esteemed guest, what is this?"
The fact that this mysterious liquid can emit such a dense energy fluctuation clearly indicates that its value is definitely higher than that of the Fourth-Tier Magic Core!
Mo Tang asked with a smile, "Have you ever heard of the Companion Purple Crystal Source?"
"What?!"
"You're saying this is Companion Purple Crystal Source!"
The old man stood up instantly, looking at Mo Tang with some excitement, not even noticing that the chair behind him had been knocked over.
"Not bad," Mo Tang replied calmly.
"This... please wait a moment, sir. This item is far too precious. I have only heard of it but have never seen it. I need to report before I can make a decision. I apologize."
Mo Tang did not object to this.
After waiting for about the time it takes to drink a cup of tea, the door to the Treasure Appraisal Room opened again, and surprisingly, it was Mo Tang's acquaintance who entered...
"Haha, after hearing Elder Ge's report, I guessed that Commander Mo had arrived. Lei Yan is sorry for not welcoming you properly, please forgive me, Commander Mo!"
The visitor was none other than Lei Yan, the Steward Lei in charge of the Mittel Family in Black Rock City.
Mo Tang was not surprised to see him, and he also got up and exchanged a few pleasantries with him.
After being invited by Lei Yan to the VIP Room specially prepared by the auction house, Mo Tang was surprised to see an old man dressed in an alchemist's robe...
Judging from the badge he carries, he's actually a Fourth-grade Alchemist!
"Hehe, Commander Mo, let me introduce you."
Lei Yan first bowed respectfully to the elderly Fourth-grade Alchemist, and then smiled at Mo Tang, saying, "This is Master Frank, the president of the Black Rock City Alchemist Guild branch!"
Looking at the Fourth-grade Alchemist in front of him, Mo Tang had already guessed what was going on.
After all, there are only two Fourth-grade Alchemists in the entire Black Rock City.
"Greetings, Master Frank."
The branch president of the Alchemist Guild was very gentle and nodded slightly to Mo Tang in greeting.
However, upon seeing the bottle of Companion Purple Crystal Source that Mo Tang had taken out, her face flushed with excitement...
"Indeed! Although this is the first time I've seen this Companion Purple Crystal Source, it is exactly the same as described in the Alchemist Guild, and it contains a huge amount of fire attribute energy. It is undoubtedly Companion Purple Crystal Source!"
With Frank, Fourth-grade Alchemist, guaranteeing him, Lei Yan's expression instantly became excited.
"Very good!"
Lei Yan clenched his fist secretly, barely suppressing his excitement.
"In that case, Commander Mo, I plan to make this Companion Purple Crystal Source the ninety-ninth item to be auctioned off in three days, with a starting price of five hundred thousand Gold Coins. What do you think?"
