On today's continent, perhaps he was the only one who could surpass me when it came to Martial Souls.
As the thought crossed her mind, Qian Renxue stared intently at Lin Yuan on the raised platform. Like her mother, Bibi Dong, she was very curious about him and wanted to get to know him better.
After auctioning off the God-Level Martial Soul, Lin Yuan walked over to the next glass case covered with a red silk cloth.
Without saying much or wasting any time, Lin Yuan reached out and pulled the red silk cloth straight off the case.
The moment the cloth came away, three small, round objects appeared before the eyes of the guests.
At the sight of the three small, round objects, Thunder Douluo Yu Yuanzhen instantly recalled an earlier auction item. He instinctively cried out in surprise, "Martial Soul Evolution Pills?"
That was right. This auction item looked a lot like the Martial Soul Evolution Pill from earlier.
Martial Soul Evolution Pills were small, round, and bright gold, and so was this item.
As soon as Thunder Douluo Yu Yuanzhen spoke, he turned his gaze to Lin Yuan and waited for him to introduce the item.
As he watched Lin Yuan, Thunder Douluo Yu Yuanzhen's breathing and heartbeat quickened uncontrollably.
If this item really did turn out to be Martial Soul Evolution Pills again, then he, Thunder Douluo Yu Yuanzhen, had to get one no matter what.
There was no Soul Master who didn't want his Martial Soul to evolve.
Ning Fengzhi wanted it.
He, Thunder Douluo Yu Yuanzhen, wanted it just as much.
With one Martial Soul Evolution Pill, he might not have had a chance, but with three, he could make a bid for one!
Lin Yuan met Thunder Douluo Yu Yuanzhen's eyes. "Your Majesty Yu, I'm sorry to tell you that although this item is a pill, it isn't a Martial Soul Evolution Pill. It's a Transformation Pill."
Lin Yuan's words left Thunder Douluo Yu Yuanzhen bitterly disappointed.
They weren't Martial Soul Evolution Pills?
Well, all right then.
After Lin Yuan spoke, Qian Renxue, disguised as Heaven Dou Crown Prince Xue Qinghe, asked him, "Transformation Pills? What kind of pills are those? What do they do?"
The other guests wanted to know the same things Qian Renxue did. As soon as she finished asking, curious gazes turned one after another toward Lin Yuan.
Faced with their curious gazes, Lin Yuan, standing on the raised platform, promptly answered Qian Renxue, who was disguised as Heaven Dou Crown Prince Xue Qinghe. "The Transformation Pill has a very simple use: it helps Soul Beasts transform into humans. Whether a Soul Beast has a cultivation age of a hundred thousand years, ten thousand, a thousand, a hundred, or even ten, it can become human as long as it takes a Transformation Pill. It won't need to face a heavenly tribulation or anything like that. Not only that, but it will retain its strength after becoming human. It won't be reset to zero."
"For example, if a ninety-thousand-year Soul Beast takes a Transformation Pill, it will become an Eight-Ring Soul Douluo after transforming into a human. Its Soul Ring combination will be closely tied to its cultivation age, and its Martial Soul will be its original body."
After Lin Yuan finished introducing the Transformation Pills, one Soul Beast was tempted.
Which Soul Beast?
None other than the Ice Empress, who had come from the Far North to the Lin Auction House with the Snow Empress.
Without hesitation, the Ice Empress immediately sent the Snow Empress a voice transmission. "Sister Snow, I want one of those Transformation Pills!"
There was, without a doubt, a reason the Ice Empress wanted a Transformation Pill. The reason was simple: she wanted to live.
In about ten thousand years, she would have to face her four-hundred-thousand-year heavenly tribulation. To tell the truth, the Ice Empress wasn't very confident she could survive it. There was a good chance she would perish beneath that tribulation. Although she had lived for over a hundred thousand years, a very, very long time, she still wanted to live and didn't want to die yet. She hadn't even climbed into the bed of her beloved Soul Beast, the Snow Empress.
Since a Transformation Pill could give the Ice Empress a way to live, she naturally wanted one, and she had no reason not to.
Soon after the Ice Empress sent her voice transmission, the Snow Empress replied in kind. "All right, I'll bid for you."
After answering the Ice Empress, the Snow Empress turned her beautiful eyes toward Lin Yuan on the raised platform and said, "Boss Lin, I bid one million Gold Soul Coins!"
After making her bid to Lin Yuan, the Snow Empress sent Di Tian a voice transmission. "Respected Beast God, I imagine you're interested in the Transformation Pills as well. One for my Far North, two for your Star Dou Great Forest. What do you say?"
The Snow Empress knew that Di Tian, being a Soul Beast himself, had definitely set his sights on the Transformation Pills, which were of enormous use to Soul Beasts. Since both sides were Soul Beasts and were at a disadvantage in the Lin Auction House because of their small numbers, there was no reason to fight each other to the death. So the Snow Empress sent Di Tian a voice transmission to discuss having one side bid for the pills and then splitting the spoils between them.
Before long, the Snow Empress received Di Tian's reply by voice transmission. "Agreed."
Outside Suotuo City, Sanye Plain.
Boom!
Boom, boom!
Boom, boom, boom!
In the sky, Angel Douluo Qian Daoliu and Sword Douluo Chen Xin darted and shifted, colliding in rapid succession. Wherever they passed, deafening sonic booms erupted, ringing through heaven and earth.
"Boy from the Chen Clan, you'd better be ready to take this next sword strike!"
"Green Snakes in Both Sleeves!"
As Angel Douluo Qian Daoliu unleashed the first of his three great sword moves, sacred sword Qi, radiant and holy and sharp enough to slice through iron like mud, gathered with lightning speed. In the space of a spark, it formed two enormous green snakes. Flicking their tongues, their eyes fierce and menacing, they pounced on Sword Douluo Chen Xin together.
The two green snakes were no ordinary serpents, but emperors among snakes!
Let alone ordinary flood dragons-even against a true dragon, they could join forces and overpower it!
If Angel Douluo Qian Daoliu cultivated Green Snakes in Both Sleeves to perfect mastery, to its utmost limit, the two could merge into one and become the even more powerful Azure Dragon in One Sleeve, which could be compared to a dragon king!
With just one glance, Sword Douluo Chen Xin, a seasoned veteran of countless battles whose strength was formidable, sensed the power of Green Snakes in Both Sleeves. He frowned, and a black Ten Thousand Year Soul Ring around him lit up.
"Ninth Soul Skill! God-Demon Dual Slash!"
That was right. Sword Douluo Chen Xin's very first move was his trump card, his Ninth Soul Skill.
He had no choice. Green Snakes in Both Sleeves was simply too powerful. Sword Douluo Chen Xin's instincts told him that, aside from his Ninth Soul Skill, none of the other eight great Soul Skills of his First Martial Soul, the Seven Kill Sword, could stop it.
Boom!!!
The instant the two skills collided, sword Qi and Soul Power erupted, sweeping out in every direction and crushing everything in their path. Trees toppled, and the earth split apart.
Thick smoke filled the entire area.
When the smoke cleared, Sword Douluo Chen Xin had changed.
He was now wearing a suit of armor.
It was the Four-Word Full-Set Battle Armor, the Black God Set.
The battle had entered its second phase!
The first-floor auction hall of the Lin Auction House.
The Transformation Pills were useful only to Soul Beasts and were of little use to Soul Masters, so the Snow Empress got her wish and won them in the end.
That leaves the last item. I'll soon find out what that divine artifact is.
Gazing at the only glass case on the raised platform still covered by a red silk cloth, Hell Demon Dragon Zi Ji was full of anticipation.
