"The ninth auction item is actually ten drops of essence blood from a Holy Dragon of Light, a true dragon at least at the Limit Douluo level?"
Inside VIP Room Three, Mu Tianchen shot to his feet. His pupils constricted sharply, and he was utterly stunned.
His Martial Soul was the Holy Dragon of Light!
As the evolved form of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon, the Holy Dragon of Light was a powerful True Dragon Martial Soul. In this world, there were already very few heavenly treasures capable of benefiting a Holy Dragon of Light Martial Soul.
Even the hundred-thousand-year immortal herbs within the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well might not necessarily have any effect on his Holy Dragon of Light Martial Soul.
However, these ten drops of Holy Dragon of Light Essence Blood were an exception.
These ten drops of Holy Dragon of Light Essence Blood were genuine True Dragon Essence Blood.
In the world of Douluo Continent, even the weakest true dragons possessed combat strength comparable to human Title Douluo. Some powerful true dragons even wielded the power of gods. In ancient times, those true dragons had been capable of slaying gods!
According to Miss Dongfang Yue'er's description, although these ten drops of Holy Dragon of Light Essence Blood did not come from a true dragon in the divine realm, they were at least comparable to a human Limit Douluo.
A true dragon of that level was far beyond anything he could currently compare to.
In the world of Douluo Continent, the strength of a person's Martial Soul depended not only on the Martial Soul's own quality, but also on whether that person possessed an origin related to it.
In other words, it depended on whether the bloodline associated with the Martial Soul was powerful enough.
Everyone who awakened a beast Martial Soul inherited, to some extent, a trace of the beast's bloodline within them.
Some people were born with a fairly strong Martial Soul bloodline, making their Martial Souls stronger than many others of the same type.
Mu Tianchen did not know how much Holy Dragon of Light bloodline he had inherited.
But he could clearly feel that if he consumed these ten drops of Holy Dragon of Light Essence Blood,
not only would the Holy Dragon of Light bloodline within him be greatly strengthened, but his physique would also undergo a qualitative leap.
His instincts told him that he had to obtain these ten drops of Holy Dragon of Light Essence Blood!
However, it was not difficult to see that these ten drops of Holy Dragon of Light Essence Blood would certainly be incredibly expensive. With his mere thirty million Federal Coin monthly cultivation allowance, he probably was not even qualified to place a bid.
What should he do?
Should he ask his teacher for help?
Mu Tianchen's brows immediately knitted together.
As though she had noticed Mu Tianchen's desire, Qiangu Tinglan widened her large eyes and asked curiously, "What is it, Brother Tianchen? Do you want those ten drops of Holy Dragon of Light Essence Blood?"
"I have five billion Federal Coin here. I don't need it anyway. If Brother Tianchen wants to use it, I'll give it all to you."
Looking at Qiangu Tinglan, Mu Tianchen felt somewhat moved. He could not help sighing inwardly that Qiangu Dongfeng, an ambitious man who sought to unify Douluo Continent, had somehow been blessed with such a kind granddaughter. He wondered whether it was fortune accumulated in a previous life.
Still, he refused. Shaking his head, he said, "Your money ultimately belongs to your family. It wouldn't be appropriate for an outsider like me to use it."
Puffing out her cheeks, Qiangu Tinglan said unhappily, "What do you mean? My grandfather said I could spend everything on this card however I wanted! If I say you can use it, then you can use it!"
Elder Qian watched from the side without saying anything.
Naturally, he could see how desperately Mu Tianchen wanted those ten drops of Holy Dragon of Light Essence Blood.
But as Mu Tianchen had thought, those ten drops of Holy Dragon of Light Essence Blood would not come cheap. Their value might even rival that of a top-tier Black-Grade Mecha.
"Elder Qian, Tinglan, I need to make a call."
Mu Tianchen apologized to them before dialing his teacher Leng Yaozhu.
"What is it? Do you need something?" Leng Yaozhu's voice soon came through the Soul Tool Communicator.
Mu Tianchen hurriedly said, "It's like this, Teacher. I'm at the Shrek City Auction House right now, and they're auctioning ten drops of essence blood from an ancient Holy Dragon of Light."
"According to the auction house, this Holy Dragon of Light possessed strength at least comparable to a human Rank 99 Limit Douluo while it was alive. These ten drops of Holy Dragon of Light Essence Blood, I..."
At that moment, Leng Yaozhu immediately said through the Soul Tool Communicator, "Don't move. Wait there for me. I'll be there in thirty seconds."
After that, Leng Yaozhu ended the call. She glanced out the window, then transformed into a streak of light and vanished.
Both the Shrek City Auction House and the Spirit Pagoda Headquarters were located in Shrek City, not far from each other. With Leng Yaozhu's Rank 98 Super Douluo cultivation, thirty seconds was more than enough for her to arrive.
On this side, Mu Tianchen had only just put down his Soul Tool Communicator when, about a minute later, someone knocked on the door.
Then the room's doors opened, and an exceptionally beautiful figure walked in.
That beautiful figure was none other than Mu Tianchen's teacher, the Spirit Pagoda's vice tower master, Sky Phoenix Douluo Leng Yaozhu.
"Greetings, Your Excellency Sky Phoenix."
Upon seeing Leng Yaozhu enter, Elder Qian immediately stood and respectfully bowed to her.
Though he was also a Title Douluo, there was still an enormous gap between him and Leng Yaozhu, a Rank 98 Super Douluo and vice tower master of the Spirit Pagoda.
"Aunt Leng, you're here!!"
The moment Qiangu Tinglan saw Leng Yaozhu, her eyes lit up. She threw herself into Leng Yaozhu's arms and repeatedly rubbed her little face against Leng Yaozhu's clothes.
Although Leng Yaozhu did not get along particularly well with Qiangu Dongfeng, she had a good relationship with Qiangu Tinglan and usually liked this lively little girl.
"Teacher, you're here?"
Mu Tianchen also promptly rose respectfully and approached Leng Yaozhu.
"These are the ten drops of Holy Dragon of Light Essence Blood you mentioned."
A golden tray appeared in Leng Yaozhu's hand. Resting atop it were the very ten drops of Holy Dragon of Light Essence Blood that the auctioneer Dongfang Yue'er had displayed earlier.
The rich essence blood seemed like a scorching volcano before Mu Tianchen. Even through the energy barrier, he could sense the immense power within.
Leng Yaozhu glanced at Mu Tianchen and said, "You were right. This is indeed essence blood from a Holy Dragon of Light, a true dragon comparable to a human Rank 99 Limit Douluo."
"And these are the ten most precious drops of essence blood from that Holy Dragon of Light."
"This Holy Dragon of Light has been dead for tens of thousands of years, yet its ten drops of essence blood have remained preserved until now. That alone demonstrates how extraordinary they are."
"Your Martial Soul is the Holy Dragon of Light. After consuming these ten drops of Holy Dragon of Light Essence Blood, your physique will certainly be greatly strengthened."
"However, the energy contained within these ten drops of Holy Dragon of Light Essence Blood is far too immense. With your current cultivation, you will find it difficult to absorb them."
"Therefore, over the coming period, I will help you absorb these ten drops of True Dragon Essence Blood. If all goes well, you will completely absorb these ten drops of Holy Dragon of Light Essence Blood within half a year."
"These ten drops of Holy Dragon of Light Essence Blood may very well lay the foundation for you to become a true powerhouse!"
Leng Yaozhu's arrangements were excellent, but Mu Tianchen hesitantly said, "Teacher, if that's the case, what about the Genius Youth Elite Tournament tomorrow?"
Hearing this, Leng Yaozhu gently shook her head. "The Genius Youth Elite Tournament began today, but after the battle in the Spirit Ascension Platform during the last Riot Period, I realized that ordinary combat or competition no longer serves much purpose for you."
"What matters more for you now is raising your strength as soon as possible and consolidating your foundation."
"For now, focus on solidifying your foundation. Don't participate in those competitions for the time being."
"Yes, Teacher. I understand."
Mu Tianchen also felt that Leng Yaozhu's words made sense.
He could feel it as well. Since his battle with Qin Jianxin, especially after Qin Jianxin had shredded him with a single sword strike, ordinary battles truly held little meaning for him anymore.
Unless it was a genuine life-and-death battle, it would not improve his combat experience.
But life-and-death battles were not something that could occur so easily.
