As she finished speaking, a maidservant gracefully walked up carrying a jade plate covered with red silk.
With a gentle wave of her delicate hand, Doudou unveiled the silk cloth.
An unremarkable-looking herb lies quietly in the dish.
The herb is entirely emerald green, but strangely, three snow-white leaves grow in the center of the herb.
In the center of the leaf, a few glistening water droplets adorn it, like the dew that hasn't dried on a lotus leaf in the early morning, emitting a faint fragrance.
"This thing is called 'Wang Chuan Qiu Shui Lu' (望穿秋水露), which is also an extremely rare 100,000-year-old medicinal herb."
DouDou's voice was incredibly alluring.
"Consuming it can train one to have discerning eyes, enabling one to see through all kinds of strange objects, and can also greatly enhance the mental strength of the user."
"Longing for the moon, starting bid: five million gold soul coins! Each bid must be at least one hundred thousand gold soul coins!"
However, unlike the previous performance of the Qiluo Tulip which ignited the entire venue, this time the audience seemed rather quiet.
Whispers gradually rose from the VIP section.
"Eagle eyes? That sounds impressive, but what would you need that for?"
A rough voice rang out, tinged with disdain.
"Hey, buddy, you don't understand."
The person next to him lowered their voice, their tone ambiguous.
"A see-through artifact? Maybe, it can even see through clothes...hehehe, see everything clearly!"
The foul language elicited a low chuckle.
"I don't think it's very useful. It's good for boosting mental strength, but it's far inferior to the previous Qiluo Tulip."
"That's right, this 'longing for autumn dew' is useless, utterly useless!"
The murmurs grew louder, but no one made a bid.
DouDou's smile was slightly stiff, but she still tried her best to maintain it.
"I've been waiting with bated breath. Five million gold soul coins. Any VIPs willing to bid?"
Inside the private box in the owner's room.
Ning Rongrong's face turned red with anger as she listened to the unpleasant comments outside.
"Outrageous! These ignorant fools!"
She couldn't help but mutter a curse under her breath.
"This is a spiritual treasure of the 100,000-year level! How could it be ordinary?"
"With eyes that can see through everything, what an incredibly powerful ability that must be!"
Ning Liu sat to the side, his expression calm, with even a faint smile on his lips.
He wasn't in a hurry.
The true wonder of this "longing for autumn dew" technique was something he probably wouldn't have known if he hadn't fortuitously obtained the Tang Sect's Mysterious Heavenly Treasure Record from the system.
A single "penetration" feature can easily lead people to misunderstand or feel that it is impractical.
As for mental strength...
It is important, but if it is replaced by soul power, it is not so ordinary!
On the auction stage, DouDou's heart sank.
Could it be that this 100,000-year-old medicinal herb is going to fail to sell at auction?
This was something that had never happened to her since she came to this auction house.
She was about to speak again, trying to salvage the situation once more.
Just then, a clear female voice came from one of the VIP boxes.
"Ten million gold soul coins."
DouDou suddenly raised her head, a hint of surprise flashing in her eyes.
She quickly shouted, "Ten million! This esteemed guest has bid ten million gold soul coins!"
"Are there any higher prices?"
"Ten million gold soul coins for the first time!"
"Ten million gold soul coins, second time!"
She spoke very quickly, as if afraid the other person would change their mind.
"Ten million gold soul coins for the third time! Sold!"
clang!
The auction gavel slammed down with a sharp, resounding sound.
DouDou let out a long sigh of relief, and her smile returned to its sweetness.
"Congratulations to our distinguished guest on successfully bidding for the 100,000-year-old spiritual herb, Longing Dew!"
The person who made the bid was Ning Rongrong.
At this moment, she pouted and snorted.
"A bunch of blind fools."
She turned to look at Ning Fengzhi, a hint of smugness in her eyes.
"Dad, this is what you taught me. For us support-type Soul Masters, mental strength is also very important."
"With stronger mental strength, one can better control distractions, maximize the utilization of soul power, and simultaneously apply different types of amplification effects to multiple teammates."
Ning Fengzhi nodded with a smile.
"Rongrong is right."
Ning Liu also laughed.
"In that case, I'll give this 'Longing for Autumn Dew' to Rongrong later, shall I?"
Ning Rongrong's eyes lit up, and she nodded vigorously.
"Okay, okay! Thank you, senior brother!"
She won't hold back.
Ning Liu's smile deepened.
He wasn't really so generous as to give away such a rare item so easily. Just as the auction gavel fell, the familiar system notification sounded in his mind again.
[Ding! The auction item "Ten Thousand Years of Longing for Autumn Dew" has been successfully sold!]
[Auction Price: Ten Million Gold Soul Coins!]
[Triggering a 10,000x return!]
[Congratulations, host, you have obtained: 1,000 "Dewdrops of Longing for Autumn"!]
A thousand plants!
Ning Liu's heart stirred slightly, and the result was surprisingly similar to the previous one.
Three trees, each lasting 100,000 years, each returned 1,000 trees!
That's outrageous!
What is the system trying to make me do?!
However, the greatest use of this "longing for autumn dew" for him is that it can be used to cultivate the Purple Demon Eye, a unique skill of the Tang Sect.
If one were to cultivate by collecting that wisp of purple light from the dawn every day, the Purple Demon Eye would never know when it could reach the Dao of cultivation!
However, if combined with the medicinal power of the "Looking Through Autumn Water Dew," once the Purple Demon Eye is fully developed, it will truly be able to perceive the subtle and profound, and see through illusions.
"I can use this 'Looking Through Autumn Water Dew' to properly cultivate the Purple Demon Eye later."
Ning Liu secretly made his own plans.
On the auction stage, DouDou's emotions had completely calmed down.
She flashed her charming smile again, and her voice regained its previous fervor.
"Distinguished guests, although the process of waiting for the moon was a bit bumpy, it has finally found its rightful owner."
"Next, we will be auctioning off our sixth item, which I believe will definitely pique the interest of everyone present!"
"This item is specially provided by the Heavenly Dou Royal Family!"
"It is an extremely ancient and wondrously powerful soul tool!"
The moment the words "soul tool" were uttered, the atmosphere in the entire auction hall was instantly ignited once again.
Those guests who had previously scorned the longing gaze now had eager eyes.
Compared to the ethereal and elusive immortal herbs, the power and practicality of soul tools are something they can more directly experience.
Especially the items brought out by the Heavenly Dou royal family, they are probably not simple, and their quality is definitely guaranteed.
Even Pope Bibidon raised an eyebrow slightly upon hearing the words.
A soul tool?
She was somewhat interested.
