• The crowd realized that Lou Gao had joined Glazed Heaven and wondered what the rising force intended to do.

The Eight Treasures Ruyi Soft Armor sold for 660,000 Gold Soul Coins to an excited merchant. When Ning Liu’s auction succeeded, his Hundredfold Return triggered and awarded him a Quasi-Divine Artifact.

Ning Liu received the Star Glazed Armor, a Quasi-Divine Artifact, but considered it less valuable than a weapon that could grow with him. Doudou announced that the seventh auction item was related to gods, drawing the crowd’s attention and making Qian Daoliu intensely curious.

• Ning Liu inspected the Star Glazed Armor and judged its defensive power impressive but its potential exhausted.
• The merchant who won the Eight Treasures Ruyi Soft Armor left the auction stage with an attendant to complete the procedures.

• The crowd erupted at the prospect of more god-related treasures appearing at Glazed Heaven’s auction.
• Qian Daoliu focused on Doudou, determined to see what the auction house claimed was related to gods.

Doudou unveiled the seventh auction item, a divine relic known as a Drop of the God of Furnace's Sweat, and explained its power to transform metal and enhance Soul Tools. Qian Daoliu recognized its genuine divine aura and resolved to claim it as the bidding began.

• Doudou opened the bidding at one million gold soul coins, with minimum raises of one hundred thousand.

The Drop of the God of Furnace's Sweat sold to Spirit Hall for fifty million gold soul coins, and Qian Daoliu explained that he had bought it to prepare Qian Renxue for her divine trials. Ning Liu then received the God of Furnace Authority Imprint through the system's five-hundredfold value return.

• Ning Liu recognized that Qian Daoliu had bought only the visible relic while the system returned the God of Furnace Authority Imprint to him.

• Ning Liu discovered that the trial tested both the recipient's ability to use the divine sweat and the distributor's ability to circulate its value.
• Ning Liu learned that the Authority Imprint granted him Seed of Divine Fire and Hand of Enlivenment.

Ning Liu considered who should receive the God of Furnace Authority Imprint and chose Lou Gao over Tang Chen and Titan. He ordered the sect guards to invite Lou Gao to the Sect Master's room, saying he had a gift for him.

• Ning Liu decided he could not accept the imprint because forging was not his main path and he already bore the Asura God's inheritance.
• Ning Liu rejected Tang Chen as a candidate, believing the former Peerless Douluo deserved a better path than the inheritance of a Third-level God.
• Ning Liu weighed giving the imprint to Titan or Lou Gao, comparing Titan's loyalty and strength with Lou Gao's unmatched devotion to forging.
• Ning Liu chose Lou Gao, believing the divine fire would best fulfill its purpose in the hands of a craftsman wholly devoted to creation.
• Ning Liu ordered the sect guards to invite Lou Gao and tell him he had a gift for him.

• Ning Liu watched Lou Gao leave, then turned his attention to the auction hall below.
• Doudou unveiled a nameless crystal sphere containing a dream created by the Third-level God, the God of Slumber, and explained its one-night-for-a-year effect and random content.

• Qian Daoliu sensed another divine aura and recognized that two god-related items had appeared in Heaven Dou City in one day.
• Doudou began the auction for A Dream of the God of Slumber with a starting bid of one million gold soul coins.

The auction house sold the Dream of the God of Slumber for 1.88 million Gold Soul Coins after bidders realized it could be used against enemies. Ning Liu received a bizarre personal item from the system, a pillow that aided sleep but produced unstoppable snores.

• A merchant and other bidders began competing for the dream after proposing they could save it for descendants or use it on enemies.

• Ning Liu inspected the God of Slumber's Snoring Pillow and discovered its sleep, dream, and inheritance effects, along with its one-kilometer snoring effect.

Ning Liu set aside the Temple of Slumber’s Inheritance Token, then watched the auction introduce its ninth item: a divine seasoning called Salt of True Flavor. Doudou revealed that it enhanced food’s natural taste and could gradually improve the body, leaving the bidders eager to compete for it.

• Ning Liu decided to hide the God of Slumber’s Inheritance Token until he found a suitable recipient.
• Doudou introduced a small jade bottle as the ninth auction item, and the audience scoffed when she called its contents seasoning.
• Doudou revealed that the seasoning, Salt of True Flavor, had been condensed from divine power by the God of Taste.
• Doudou explained that a pinch brought out a food’s purest flavor without changing the food itself.
• Doudou announced that long-term consumption could gently improve the body and remove accumulated impurities, igniting the audience’s desire to buy it.

Qian Daoliu bid fifty million Gold Soul Coins for Salt of True Flavor, hoping to strengthen Xue'er for her perilous future. After the sale, Ning Liu received the system's five-hundredfold return: the True Iron Eating Scripture.

• Qian Daoliu suspected Salt of True Flavor came from an ancient God of Food and recognized its potential value.

• Ning Liu received the True Iron Eating Scripture as the system's return and wondered what kind of cultivation technique it was.

Ning Liu learned that the True Iron Eating Scripture was the complete path to the God of Taste’s inheritance, not a crude method of cultivating by chewing metal. He grasped that its power lay in refining the essence of all things to evolve oneself, and the chapter left him stunned by the revelation.

• Ning Liu worried that the True Iron Eating Scripture would make him a laughingstock for eating metal.
• The system explained that the scripture was the divine trial and key to obtaining the God of Taste’s complete inheritance.
• The system described how the God of Taste’s Gluttonous Tongue let him analyze food’s energy and cultivate by eating.
• The system explained that the God of Taste advanced from absorbing heavenly treasures to refining ores and metals as part of his body.
• The system revealed that the God of Taste gained divinity by eating a fallen evil god’s Divine Body, while the Salt of True Flavor let mortals briefly taste origins.
• Ning Liu realized the scripture was a path to devouring and refining all things, and murmured that he finally understood.
