Another Piece of Gold of Life-Why Pass Up a Chance to Fleece Them?
Even Electrolux suddenly appeared.
"Gold of Life?"
His eyes burned with intensity.
"Child, you absolutely cannot miss this. Even if it's a bit pricey, so be it. Shrek Academy may have ripped us off, but we absolutely must get our hands on the Gold of Life."
"This thing is comparable to two giant insects..."
Electrolux stroked his beard and said with a smile.
"Hey, old man, you can give examples, but what's the point of using me as an example?" Sky Dream Ice Silkworm was originally listening curiously to Electrolux explain what the Gold of Life was, but unexpectedly, she was also dragged into the fray, and muttered with some dissatisfaction.
"I misspoke, it's about two and a half. After all, even if Tian Meng condenses into the Gold of Life, it's only the size of a teardrop," Electrolux said with a sidelong glance at Tian Meng.
Tian Meng: "..."
Aaaaaaah!!!
My Tian Meng, that's not a unit of measurement!
"To get back to the point, this 'Gold of Life ' is a metal born from immense Life, naturally containing boundless Life. Just like the core of the Star Dou Great Forest, there must be a large quantity of Gold of Life,' but with our current strength, we are not qualified to covet it."
Electrolux said leisurely, "However, this ' Gold of Life ' is not what you call it in your Douluo Plane."
"Therefore, it is imperative to..."
Before Elder Yi could finish speaking, Lu Cheng pressed the button without the slightest hesitation.
"Add ten million, make it one hundred million Gold Soul Coin!"
When the numbers rolled to nine digits, the entire auction hall fell silent, and Xu Jiujiu on the stage was even more excited. This was one hundred million Gold Soul Coin!
Originally, her elder brother and she discussed using this piece of metal, brimming with Life, for the Star Luo Empire. However, after research by many powerful figures in the Offering Hall and Vice Hall Master Wang Xian'er, it was determined that while this thing was indeed useful to humans, it wasn't very useful...
On the contrary, it is a treasure for Soul Beast, because Soul Beast have extremely strong bodies and can freely absorb the rich Life in this metal to increase their cultivation. Human bodies are too fragile and far inferior to Soul Beast. If they are not careful, they will explode and die.
Therefore, after much thought, I decided it would be better to auction it off.
If the auction price is low, then secretly make a move and have one of your own bidders buy it at a higher price. If the price is appealing, then sell it...
And the 100 million Gold Soul Coin were also beyond their expectations.
"Once, twice, three times!!"
"Congratulations to Room 3 for successfully bidding on the last item..."
The successful acquisition of the auction item from the Star Luo Empire's backstage was quite secretive, with no one tracking them or resorting to murder and robbery.
Star Luo Empire does a fairly good job in terms of privacy.
In the original story, the Sun Moon Empire acquired Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast Embryo, but the incident caused a great uproar and became a major scandal. It was clear that the Star Luo Empire had done this intentionally to divert attention from the enemy.
Only Wang Yan wore a bitter expression; this was a deal worth hundreds of millions of Gold Soul Coin.
To put it bluntly, this amount of money is enough to arm a 100,000-strong heavy cavalry force to the teeth, including their warhorses; or to buy a small city-state, which would definitely be a painful expense for the Shrek Academy.
Lu Cheng ignored Wang Yan and turned back to his bedroom.
This continent is cruel; he will give them a chance to escape the mire, but if they remain blindly loyal to Shrek, then they shouldn't blame him for abandoning them ruthlessly.
On the table lay a dark, ancient Carving Knife, engraved with some intricate patterns that were difficult to discern. The stronger Spiritual Power perception, the more one could sense its sharpness.
"Huh..."
Electrolux's figure slowly emerged, staring in astonishment at the dark, ancient blade before him.
"Another piece of Gold of Life, and dozens of times larger than the last one! Wow... kid, your luck is absolutely insane."
Electrolux reached out and gently stroked the hilt of the knife. The infamous Spirit-Devouring Carving Knife was unusually quiet in his hand, showing no sign of ferocity or violence.
"With this piece of Gold of Life, will Elder Yi be able to regain his Divine Consciousness?" Lu Cheng asked with a smile.
"Can!"
Electrolux looked deeply at Lu Cheng: "Child, it turns out you also have many secrets that I haven't seen through. But everyone has secrets. The fact that we treat each other with sincerity is a rare and precious fate. Would you like to become my disciple?"
"..."
Lu Cheng smiled and knelt down.
Without any hesitation. "Teacher."
"Ha ha ha ha..."
"Okay, okay."
A relieved smile appeared on Electrolux's aged face. He waved his hand and helped Lu Cheng to his feet. "In that case, trust me."
"I will help you remove the divine mark on your little girlfriend's Sea of Consciousness, as long as I regain my Divine Consciousness..."
"I'll temporarily lend you my body," Electrolux said solemnly.
"Good!"
Lu Cheng closed his eyes, and when he opened them again, they emitted a pale golden light, revealing a profound understanding of the world that was beyond his years.
He stepped forward and gently ran his fingers over the blade.
The next instant, as if sensing a life-or-death crisis, a dark shadow instantly emerged from the Spirit-Devouring Carving Knife, roaring like a demon, exuding a ferocious and violent aura, and lunged at Lu Cheng with bared fangs and claws.
Its enormous silhouette was reflected on the wall.
But Lu Cheng's expression remained unchanged; he calmly gazed at the blade.
He simply raised his hand and snapped his fingers lightly.
A thick cloud of gray mist suddenly surged from beneath their feet, enveloping the entire room. The dark figure let out a scream, then shriveled up with a series of pops, being dragged into the gray mist and disappearing from sight.
At this moment, Lu Cheng, possessed by Electrolux, resembled a demon even more than the Spirit-Devouring Carving Knife...
"Infusing the Gold of Life with evil thoughts, heh, what a 'genius'..." Lu Cheng shook his head. "In that case, let me restore your original appearance."
After saying this, the gray mist around him slowly dissipated, and what followed was a holy light.
The Spirit-Devouring Carving Knife trembled slightly, gradually revealing its original vibrant green color, resembling a large piece of jade.
Even the surface of the wooden table beneath it gradually began to sprout green shoots.
"Tsk tsk."
Lu Cheng clicked his tongue in amazement.
However, the trouble of the Gold-Grade Second Awakening still needs to be dealt with... as it consumes Life.
It should be made into your true trump card, not just a decoration to be shelved.
Immediately afterwards, he absorbed the Spirit-Devouring Carving Knife into his Sea of Consciousness, merging it with himself. A surge of Life flowed into Lu Cheng's body, wantonly transforming his body, blood vessels, and bones, all of which were covered with a light blue luster, becoming increasingly resilient.
Increased Soul Ring age limit, expanded Sea of Consciousness.
Lu Cheng released his Spiritual Power, which was like a vast ocean, spreading to every floor and corner of the Star Luo Hotel, and even to the distant Star Luo Plaza.
That's a distance of nearly three thousand meters...
In other words, as long as the range is sufficient, Lu Cheng can now completely defeat the enemy with a single shot from three kilometers away, which is quite similar to the Level 9 Soul Tool, the Sun Moon Divine Needle, Ye Yulin's famous work.
However, Lu Cheng's firing range... is still increasing.
