It was already the afternoon of the second day when the news of the Gorge of Two Worlds being breached by the Devil Army reached the Great Yin. A total of three Gorge of Two Worlds were breached, and more than a hundred thousand soldiers were either killed or injured overnight. The whereabouts of the three Divine Lords were unknown.
By the time the Devil Army was discovered, more than a dozen cities had already been demonized, and nearly a million people were sacrificed to build the Gate of Flesh and Blood.
Fortunately, the three major sects issued the Devil Extermination Order in time and mobilized their experts to kill the Devil Generals, giving the Great Yin a chance.
The Great Yin Imperial Court hurriedly recalled the three hundred thousand soldiers and a dozen experts from the Mingxiang Pavilion that were sent to the outside world and other entrances to the Devil World. With Crown Prince Gui as the leader, they went to suppress the Devil Disaster.
The battle became white-hot as soon as it started. The Great Yin Imperial Court was already fighting the Devil Emperor Vera head-on, but the Devil Army suddenly appeared from the back and attacked them. With enemies on both sides, the situation became more and more tense.
All the provinces were urgently requested to increase the number of troops and kill the devils in the Devil World.
Dozens of princes and princesses of the Great Yin were also sent to the thirteen provinces to urge the local armies to move out.
…
Nine Bright Province, Moling Mansion, Spirit Ring Tower.
The war was changing outside, but as the largest auction house in Moling Mansion, Spirit Ring Tower was still bustling with activity, unaffected by the Devil World's invasion.
The Great Yin was too powerful, so powerful that all the nobles and experts were full of confidence in the Great Yin and the three major sects.
With the Weapon Grandmasters, no matter how bad the situation got, no one would worry about the Great Yin losing.
Within the Spirit Ring Tower, the sounds of hawking and bidding could be heard incessantly. In the three-story building, Lu Sheng walked slowly along the corridor. From time to time, he could hear the sounds of bidding through the gaps between the doors on both sides of the corridor.
Inside the halls of different sizes, all kinds of auctions were taking place.
Retracting his gaze, Lu Sheng looked at the beautiful lady leading the way in front of him. The lady had a slender waist and a perky bottom. She wore a long, vermillion dress. Behind her long, round legs, there was indeed a fluffy snow-white rabbit tail. It swayed and swayed with the lady's steps.
Soon, the woman led Lu Sheng through a few corridors and arrived in front of a medium-sized hall. She pushed open the door and entered.
There were already more than ten people inside. On the auction stage, a fat auctioneer with a smile was shouting out the current bidding price.
"An Ice Jade Talisman Saber costs 100,000 Devil Gold! A hundred thousand pieces of Devil Gold! Is there anyone willing to pay a higher price? One hundred thousand pieces of Devil Gold going once! One hundred thousand pieces of Devil Gold twice!! "
Fatty shouted himself hoarse as he waved his hand in front of a dark golden box behind him.
"A Three Star Divine Weapon assembled by Grandmaster Zhu Zixuan himself! Only 100,000 Devil Gold!! "
Lu Sheng frowned and followed the rabbit-tailed lady to find a seat in the corner.
"How can a Minor Divine Weapon have a star level?" he asked doubtfully.
The rabbit-tailed lady giggled. "Esteemed customer, you may not know this, but the unspoken rule of the auction industry is that Divine Weapons are divided into nine stars according to the power and completeness of the assembled Minor Divine Weapon. From one to nine, they correspond to the power and completeness of the Minor Divine Weapon. After all, you know that these Divine Weapons and Devil Blades have all been broken before, so the more complete they are, the less damaged they are, and the more powerful they are. The highest Nine Star Divine Weapon is extremely close to a perfect Golden Leaf Divine Weapon. "
"Oh?" Lu Sheng was surprised. "Then the price must be very high?"
"Of course. But now that the war has broken out and the Devil Army has invaded, a powerful expert like you must know that the supply of war resources will soon be tightened, and the supply channels will become narrower. Even if you don't use it yourself, it's good for you to stock up on powerful weapons like Minor Divine Weapons and wait for the price to rise, "the rabbit-tailed lady said.
Lu Sheng nodded casually and looked at the Divine Weapon long saber that the fat man was shouting about.
The first thing he did after leaving the Thousand Sun Sect was to find the biggest auction house in Moling Prefecture City to buy a Minor Divine Weapon that met his expectations.
A true Divine Weapon was extremely expensive, and there was no market for it. He didn't want to buy one, but a Minor Divine Weapon was possible. He planned to buy one to disguise himself.
Also, after learning about the legend of Divine Weapons from Su Ningfei, he had another plan. He wanted to test if this Divine Weapon was formed from the spirit.
Also, he had the Deep Blue Modifier, which could absorb Mental Energy. So whether the Divine Weapon was formed from the spirit or not, it was very likely that there was Mental Energy in it. He wouldn't lose anything.
Mental Energy was similar to the spirit, the condensation of spirit power, and Essence Qi over a long period of time, so it was related to this aspect. Almost every Divine Weapon had a very long history.
Even a Minor Divine Weapon that had been reassembled from many Divine Weapon fragments was the same. The Divine Weapon had been broken before, but the various experiences it had gone through would still be remembered by the broken fragments. There were so many shards, and Mental Energy was bound to appear eventually.
After sitting down, Lu Sheng gestured for the rabbit-tailed woman to leave. He took out a piece of paper from the back of the seat in front of him that introduced the auction.
On the paper were clearly written the items to be auctioned. This was a Divine Weapon auction. Only Divine Weapons and Devil Blades were auctioned, and nothing else was auctioned.
Lu Sheng flipped through it. More than a dozen types were written on the cardboard in great detail. With that, he finally understood why the auction house would classify the Inferior Divine Weapons into nine stars.
It turned out that there were quite a number of Inferior Grade Divine Weapons that were embedded with other materials. Some only had one-fifth of the Divine Weapon's fragments, some had slightly more, one-third, and the lowest was one-ninth. These were the so-called One-Star Divine Weapons.
The corner of his mouth twitched, but Lu Sheng still started to read the introduction on the paper carefully. He was in desperate need of a Divine Weapon to disguise his abilities.
His talent lay in his extremely strong physical body and strength. Therefore, he should look for Divine Weapons in this aspect.
Soon, Lu Sheng found a Divine Weapon or Devil Blade that fit his needs perfectly on the back of the paper.
"Wei River Sword: Once shot out of the bottom of the Wei River in the easternmost part of the Great Yin. The Divine Weapon's sword light shone for hundreds of miles, causing the water of the Wei River to shoot into the sky and spread in all directions.
"Core Ability: Heavy Pressure — with a swing of the sword, sufficient strength can cause the weight of the entire Wei River to crush the enemy.
"Bloodline: Amplify strength, strengthen the body.
"Attribute: Water, Strength.
"Star Level: Seven Stars.
"Price: 190,000 Devil Gold."
Lu Sheng flipped through the other Divine Weapons. There were very few that could increase one's strength and strengthen one's body. Apart from this, there were only three others. However, two of them were female accessories, and the last one was a huge metal shield that resembled a tower shield. He had learned many skills, but he was not interested in martial arts like Shield Bashing.
To Lu Sheng, defense was meaningless. He did not need any defensive skills. The best defense, apart from offense, was a strong enough body.
If the opponent could not even break your skin, what was the point of defense?
After confirming this, Lu Sheng looked at the other Divine Weapons casually.
"Nine Villages World Wheel: A special Divine Weapon collected by the elites of the Imperial Court from the outside world. It has the special ability to connect to a mysterious and unknown space. "The connected space is named Nine Villages. Any living creature that is sucked into Nine Villages will turn into pus and die in three minutes.
"Core Ability: Absorb — can suck all weak people in sight into Nine Villages. As long as one has enough True Qi, it can absorb a maximum of 1,000 people's worth of living creatures.
"Bloodline: Draw the power of Nine Villages.
"Attribute: Qi.
"Star Level: 9 Stars.
"Price: 90,000 Devil Gold."
Seeing this, Lu Sheng was slightly tempted.
"Brother, don't be fooled by this description." A middle-aged man beside him could not help but transmit his voice. "I bought a Nine Villages World Wheel before, but it was completely useless."
"Oh? Why is that? "Lu Sheng looked up at the man who spoke. The man was sitting to his right, three seats away.
The man wore a black shirt embroidered with golden flowers, and a tight-fitting blue-black leg armor. He looked like he had just returned from the battlefield and had not had time to change out of his armor.
Lu Sheng's gaze involuntarily swept past the exquisite short knife at the man's waist. The grey-brown scabbard was engraved with a lion with countless wings on its back.
"Brother, please don't blame me. My name is Zhou Yongtan. My family has some savings, and I'm not very satisfied with my bloodline, so I often come to this auction. I want to buy some practical and suitable Divine Weapons to see if I can strengthen my own bloodline. I had my eye on a Nine Villages World Wheel before. But I bought it … "
Lu Sheng's interest was piqued, and he immediately sat up straight. "Are there any drawbacks?"
"It's not drawbacks, it's consumption …" Zhou Yongtan shook his head helplessly. "Absorbing a living being, according to the standard of a Five-Vein Realm, will consume half of the True Qi of a Five-Vein Realm Bind. And it can only absorb living beings much weaker than itself. "
Lu Sheng was also shocked. Half of a Five-Vein Realm Bind's True Qi? So much True Qi was released just to absorb an opponent much weaker than itself?
With so much True Qi, why use Divine Weapon techniques? Wouldn't it be faster to do it himself? It might not even consume so much True Qi.
"It's a pity to throw it away, but it's useless to keep it." Thinking of this, Lu Sheng shook his head.
"Exactly," Zhou Yongtan agreed. "What pisses me off the most is that after scamming me, this damned place still dares to take out a second and a third one and sell it."
"Third Brother Zhou, you're basically advertising for them for free. When you see someone interested in the Nine Villages World Wheel, you come over and remind them. Aren't you tired? They warned you before, it's not like they forced you to buy it. "A fat woman sitting on the side laughed coldly.
There were only a dozen or so people present. Those who could come to this small hall to bid for a Divine Weapon were all wealthy people. There weren't many people like that in the entire Moling Mansion, so everyone became more familiar with each other after going back and forth.
"This little brother doesn't look familiar. I'm just afraid he'll lose out." Zhou Yongtan smiled awkwardly.
"Your Zhou family's business is almost reaching the outside world. Do you still care about this little bit of money? Even the elders of the three sects rely on your Zhou family to make a living. What's the point of forcing a small auction house like this? "The fat woman mocked.
"Small auction house? Tsk tsk? "Zhou Yongtan smacked his lips and didn't say anything else. An auction house that dared to sell Divine Weapons would be small? This joke wasn't funny at all.
The fat woman also shut her mouth and did not say anything.
