Qing Lin jumped up in an instant and clung to Xiao Tian like a koala.

Xiao Tianyi supported Qing Lin's hip joint with one hand and put his other arm around her waist, gently comforting her.

"Alright, alright, don't be afraid, I'll kill it."

Xiao Tian pretended to unleash a burst of Dou Qi at the ground.

Xiao Tian didn't put Qing Lin down, but carried her forward like that.

Hai Bo Dong looked up at the sky, giving it a look that seemed to say, "Don't bother my eyes," while inwardly thinking, "These young people really know how to have fun."

Xiao Yi Xian rolled her eyes at Xiao Tian, but her eyes were filled with envy as she looked at Qing Lin.

Women who know how to be charming and coquettish are indeed blessed with good fortune.

As Xiao Tian walked, he subtly gave Hai Bo Dong a wink. Hai Bo Dong flicked his fingers, and a few wisps of Cold Qi shot into a dark corner.

Several ice sculptures fell from the dark corner, shattering into pieces upon impact with the ground.

"I thought I'd catch a big fish, but it's all just these small fry."

Xiao Tian looked at the few young Kala Mi, who had been following them ever since they bought the herbs.

Xiao Tian tried to set up a sting operation, but no big fish took the bait. The big fish might have a very rich collection of poisonous herbs.

"Alright, let's go back. There's a big auction tomorrow; let's see if there are any good items."

This information was revealed by one of the pharmacy owners when I was buying herbs.

With a wave of his hand, Xiao Tianyi caused everyone to disappear from their spot.

An hour later, Xiao Tian opened his eyes in the training room, and a flash of golden Thunder streaked across the sky.

"Finally, eight strands!"

Xiao Tian had previously refined the Thunder Origin, and the Gengjin Thunder within his body already numbered seven strands. After returning to his palace, he felt that the Gengjin Thunder was about to break through.

After breaking through the Gengjin Thunder, Xiao Tian continued his cultivation.

While cultivating, Xiao Tian sensed an anomaly in the Heaven and Earth Energy of the Little Fairy Doctor Palace. He learned that the Xiao Yi Xian was breaking through to the Da Dou Shi, Xiao Tian separated a wisp of his Soul Power to prevent any accidents.

About half an hour later, Xiao Yi Xian broke through to the Da Dou Shi realm and continued to consolidate her realm.

Xiao Tian withdrew his Soul Power and continued cultivating. Two hours later, after finishing his cultivation, Xiao Tian went to the bathhouse for a simple bath, then returned to bed and fell asleep.

The next morning, Xiao Tian finished washing up and getting dressed with Qing Lin's help.

The four figures appeared in the secluded alleyway where they had returned to the Free and Unfettered World last night.

Taking advantage of this moment, Xiao Tian said, "System Check-in."

[Ding! Successfully checked in at the Chu Yun Empire and obtained: Icy Spirit Body, Mysterious Mystic Ice Force, Soul Control Talisman *2, Snow-Colored Swan Kiss *1]

Soul Control Talisman: Controls the soul, making it permanently loyal to the user.

Snow-Colored Swan Kiss: Can amplify the effects of toxins a thousandfold.

Looking at the Ice Attribute physique and cultivation technique, Xiao Tian figured out its purpose.

Blood-Colored Swan Kiss? Isn't that something from Mandarin Duck Hot Pot in some romantic continent? If used properly, this thing can be incredibly useful.

A side note: On a certain continent, a figure stood before a sea of blood, holding a white flower in his hand, ready to throw it in, when suddenly the flower vanished.

He roared angrily, "I don't care who you are, you stole my things, you deserve to die!"

The four of them chose a direction and arrived at a place called Xiao Tian Ten Thousand Poisons Auction House.

The Auction House in front of me wasn't as luxurious as the Mittel Auction House. The entire facade of the Auction House resembled an open spider's head, exuding a chilling aura.

Xiao Tian walked calmly into the Auction House. The interior was decorated in a gray style, with various poisonous magical beasts and specimens carved on the walls.

"Gentlemen, are you attending the auction?"

A maid approached Xiao Tian and the others, wearing a professional smile, and said respectfully.

Although he was dressed in clothing from another country, his clothes looked very expensive, and he exuded an air of nobility, clearly indicating that he was the young master of some aristocratic family.

"Attend the auction."

Xiao Tian said calmly.

"Gentlemen, attending the auction requires being assigned a private box according to assets. May I ask where this is?"

Just as the maid was explaining the rules, a figure came to her side, interrupted her, and said respectfully.

"Distinguished gentlemen, I am the manager of the Auction House. Our Pavilion Master has ordered that you do not need to verify your assets. I will take you to Heaven Number Nine Box. Please follow me."

"Okay, lead the way."

Xiao Tian looked at the manager who had suddenly appeared, and after a moment's thought, he realized that the manager had sensed Hai Bo Dong's cultivation level.

According to previous inquiries, the Auction House's Pavilion Master is an Eight Star Dou Wang, and since he was able to sense Hai Lao's strength, he must possess some special treasures.

On the way, the manager enthusiastically introduced the levels of the private rooms. The private rooms of the Poison Play Auction House are divided into four levels: Heaven, Earth, Black, and Yellow. The Heaven level is the most noble and is basically the exclusive domain of powerful figures or aristocratic families.

The Heaven Box is located on the third floor of the Auction House. When the manager opened the box door, the entire box was decorated with many ornaments, making it look magnificent.

"Then I'll take my leave. There are maids waiting outside; please feel free to ask us if you need anything."

After the manager finished speaking, he respectfully closed the door of the private room and left.

From inside, one can see the entire auction hall from a commanding height with exceptional clarity. The chairs are made of precious wood and covered with soft, warm fur from some kind of Fire Attribute magical beast, making them extremely comfortable to sit on.

The hall below was already full of people, all talking and waiting for the auction to begin.

Bored, Xiao Tian picked up Xiao Yi Xian's jade hand, placed it in his palm, and played with it with great interest.

Qing Lin stood behind Xiao Tian, massaging him while watching the lively scene unfold. For her, attending an auction for the first time was quite an event.

"Little girl, if you like watching, you can go take a look at the front."

Xiao Tian looked up at Qing Lin, who was filled with excitement and curiosity, and said...

With Xiao Tian's permission, Qing Lin happily walked to the front of the private room and began to look around.

Hai Bo Dong closed his eyes to rest as soon as he entered, showing no interest in anything.

After waiting for about ten minutes, the auction officially began, and Qing Lin was pulled to sit obediently beside Xiao Tian.

As the auction items were fiercely contested and sold, Xiao Tian only bid on two poisonous herbs.

"Next up for auction is our first and final item, Mysterious High-Rank Dou Skill: Venomfall."

"When this Dou Technique is used, it can create a poisonous cloud covering an area. The poisonous cloud will then rain down a torrential downpour of toxins and corrosive substances, and the rain will not disappear after it falls."

The initial auction description caught the attention of many, who were prepared to go bankrupt to bid for it. It was a group AOE attack that was also continuous; those inside either had to run or fight to the death to defend themselves.

Starting bid: 150,000 Gold Coins.

"Sixteen thousand."

No sooner had the auctioneer finished speaking than someone immediately placed a bid.

Mysterious High-Rank Dou Skill are still very attractive, and everyone is bidding desperately for them.

"161,000"

"165,000"

As the competition intensified, the price quickly reached 350,000 Gold Coins, and even the Earth Box saw bids.

"Four hundred thousand."

Xiao Tian stated his price directly.

When someone immediately raised the bid by 50,000, the atmosphere in the room instantly fell silent.

"Four hundred and one thousand." A voice came from the Earth Number Two Box.

"450,000"

Xiao Tian calmly called out another high price.

Thank you to all my godparents for your generous donations, monthly tickets, and recommendation votes.

Thanks
