Legend of Mir 2: Seeking the Truth in Marfa

Brook entered the auction house and immediately checked the materials. There were gems, crystals, creation stones, and other items, but no items related to monster soul materials.

Suddenly, an item called "The Keepsake of the Fire Dragon Cult Master" appeared on the auction list, priced at 10 Yuanbao. Brook was about to take a closer look, but in the blink of an eye, it disappeared!

Wow, someone bought it right after putting it up? It seems this kind of item is quite popular.

Even if it hadn't been bought, Brook couldn't afford it now. He only had 8 gold ingots left.

Brook thought about it, then took out the Backfire Wristbands and Fire Dragon Armor from the warehouse and put them on the auction house for 20 Yuanbao and 30 Yuanbao respectively.

The Backfire Wristguards were second-tier equipment, twice as expensive as first-tier Fire Dragon equipment. The Fire Dragon Armor was clothing, and clothing and weapons were over three times more expensive than regular jewelry. He didn't sell the remaining two pieces of Taoist Fire Dragon equipment and the skill book in the warehouse, as he needed them later.

I'm still short of money. I need to try my luck in the Novice Dungeon while I still have one chance to enter today and while there are fewer people there at night.

Brook returned to the First Continent. The manor was quiet and deserted, mostly occupied with people meditating and resting. The people of the Dragon Empire had a very regular routine.

Entering the underground palace again, Brook began to teleport in various rooms, killing all the leaders regardless of size, and then tried to collect the souls of monsters.

Around 4: AM, while Brook was battling the Stone Tomb Corpse King, the leader of the local monsters, in the right room, several figures appeared in the area. Most of them glanced at Brook before either continuing to fly away randomly or running towards the central room next to him.

The monks of the Dragon Empire woke up quite early. Unfortunately, they were disappointed. The Dark Dragon Lord and the Mutated Dragon Warrior had just been killed by Brook, and it would take another two hours for them to spawn again. The Rainbow Demon Lord and the Yellow Spring Lord would also take another 2 minutes.

Because he was currently slaying the Stone Tomb Corpse King, a common boss that wouldn't drop any valuable equipment, Brook didn't drag it into a corner. He simply stayed in the center of the room. People passed by him, but no one bothered him.

It's just an ordinary stone tomb corpse king, there's really no need to fight for it.

After a while, the Stone Tomb King was killed, and Brook picked up the Magic God Bracelet and the Belt of Light on the ground, and then began to dig. An object emitting a strong light fell to the ground, and Brook quickly picked it up.

Stone Tomb Corpse King Ribs, Soul Material! Brooke exhaled softly. After more than four hours and killing over sixty bosses, he finally dug up another one.

"My friend, have you dug up the soul material of the Stone Tomb Corpse King? You are so lucky. Do you want to sell it?" A man's voice came from behind.

Brook turned his head and saw a man and a woman looking at him. It was obvious that the light of the soul material attracted them.

The man's name is Ximen Wuque and the woman's name is Ximen Wuhui. They are both very young and it is unknown whether they are members of a family in the Shenlong Empire.

"The market price is 10 Yuanbao, and I'm willing to pay 20 Yuanbao for it." Seeing that Brook didn't say anything, Ximen Wuque took the initiative to make an offer.

"Sorry, I want to keep it for myself." Brooke said.

"25 Yuanbao."

Brooke still shook his head.

"30 Yuanbao." Ximen Wuque continued to bid.

"Brother, this price is a bit expensive." Ximen Wuhui said next to him.

"Tomorrow is the Underground Palace Trial. You only need this one material to achieve soul resonance. You must obtain it." Seeing that Brook still refused to give in, Ximen Wuque simply said, "Last offer, 50 Yuanbao! The Stone Tomb Corpse King is not a rare monster. You have to think carefully!"

Brook said helplessly, "It's not about the ingots, but I need them too. Why don't we add each other as friends? If I dig up more materials for the Stone Tomb Corpse King, I will definitely sell them to you."

"So disrespectful? Humph~ Okay, Brook, I'll remember you!" Ximen Wuque snorted coldly, turned away without saying anything more. Ximen Wuhui also glared at Brook coldly and followed him away.

Brooke didn't know whether to laugh or cry. He'd already said he wanted it, so why was he still forcing the sale? It seemed like he was holding a grudge against him. This was inexplicable and felt unfair.

They are two petty-minded people, just ignore them for now.

Brook opened his backpack and took a look. It was mostly Crimson Moon Thunder God-level gear. After four hours, there wasn't a single skill book, let alone any equipment above Fire Dragon level. The chances of monsters dropping equipment were indeed low. But Brook nodded in satisfaction. Inside was a Thunder Crystal. It had dropped from a mutant Demon Dragon Warlord at 4 a.m. At the auction house, it would fetch 2-100 Yuanbao!

Brooke was satisfied and the four hours were not in vain.

Now more and more people are entering the underground palace, and the big boss has not been spawned yet, so it is better to go back to the city and rest first.

Brook yawned, feeling a little tired indeed, so he activated the return stone and returned to the manor.

The manor was very large, and even more rare was that the entire manor was a safe zone, so there was no need to worry about being attacked, and it was very quiet right now. Brook was too lazy to go back to the Dragon Empire to find an inn, so this place was fine. He had been leveling up with Bayin these days and had become accustomed to meditating and resting in the wild.

Looking around, he saw two large banyan trees to the south of the manor, with several monks meditating beneath them. So Brooke walked over, found a comfortable spot with his back against the banyan trees, and closed his eyes to rest.

※※※※※※※

"The mark of enlightenment! Hahaha~ I'm rich~"

"Oh my god! The Mark of Enlightenment is even more expensive than ordinary gems, tsk tsk~"

"I heard it only took 4 fire dragons to come out. What luck! Unbeatable!"

Brook was awakened by the sound of cheers and applause from afar. It turned out that someone had forged something called the Seal of Enlightenment in the Crucible of Heaven and Earth. It seemed to be worth a lot of money, so he couldn't help but cheer loudly. The people around him also gathered around to watch and cheer.

Brooke saw that it was already 7 o'clock in the morning and he had almost finished his rest. But he did not rush to get up, but was thinking about something.

The gold ingots I have are enough to pay the tax for now. My first priority is leveling up, followed by collecting soul materials to increase my health, and then improving my skills.

While leveling in the Fantasy Realm grants double experience, the time you can spend there is limited each day. To level up quickly, you'll need to earn more gold and purchase experience scrolls, or refine equipment in the Heaven and Earth Furnace for a chance to yield a Spirit Gathering Orb worth 100 million experience.

Unfortunately, the monster drop rate is not high. This may also be because the monsters in the novice underground palace are too low in level. If you can kill a higher-level boss, I believe the probability of getting good things will increase.

Where can I find a more senior leader?

Brook immediately thought of the ancient beasts outside the Dragon Empire. Their strength was double that of similar bosses, and their drop rate should be much higher. With his current health, if he were attacked by those ancient beasts, he would likely be killed instantly. But as long as he was careful and watched from a distance, he should be fine.

Besides the Dragon Empire City, there must be other places with high-level monster bosses. New continents and new maps need to be slowly explored. But there is one unavoidable problem: these bosses will inevitably be fought over by others.

He is still just a low-level novice. How can he deal with the many monks who come to compete for the position of leader?

The reason he was successful against Tuoba Shi was because of a special situation where the majority bullied the minority. It was just luck. He couldn't be so lucky every time. He had to think of other ways.

Brooke pondered.
