Douluo: The Ultimate Fire Spirit Auction

"This is the grand finale of our auction: the ninth-level soul guide weapon - the Thunderbolt World-annihilating Cannon."

Jiang Li's voice resounded in the auction hall like a huge bell. Every word struck everyone's heart like a heavy hammer, focusing everyone's attention on him.

"This is the latest soul guide developed by the Star Auction Pavilion. Its power is enough to change the course of a war."

Jiang Li introduced it in a calm yet confident tone.

With a wave of his hand, a lifelike holographic projection slowly emerged above the auction table.

The projection seemed to open a door to another world, leading everyone into a scene full of destruction and shock.

on the screen.

A towering mountain that reached the sky was once so majestic and magnificent. However, it was instantly reduced to dust under the bombardment of the Thunder World-Destroying Cannon.

Thousands of purple thunders roared down from the sky like angry dragons, carrying endless rage and destructive power, pouring down on the earth like a punishment from heaven.

Everything within a ten-mile radius.

Whether it was the dense forest or other buildings, they were all reduced to ashes in the terrifying lightning, leaving only desolation and ruins.

"The Thunderbolt World-Exterminating Cannon has a maximum attack range of twenty miles in diameter, with a core killing radius of five miles. If a Titled Douluo below level ninety-five is in the core area, their chance of survival is no more than ten percent."

Jiang Li's words shocked everyone present, and expressions of shock and fear appeared on their faces.

"Also, its greatest feature is that it requires no manipulation. It can be activated by simply injecting enough soul power. Furthermore, the input soul power can be stored until the soul power reaches a critical point, at which point this ninth-level soul guide will fully unleash its full power."

These words were like a huge meteorite thrown into a calm lake, immediately causing an uproar among all major forces.

Jing Hongchen of Mingde Hall frowned, and his eyes revealed a hint of worry and thought.

As a powerful soul guide of Mingde Hall, he was well aware of how terrifying the lethality displayed in the scene just now was.

The strategic value of this Thunder World-Destroying Cannon is simply immeasurable.

Not only can it change the situation of a war in an instant, tilting the balance of victory towards one side, it may even change the balance of power in the entire Douluo Continent.

Let those once invincible forces tremble under its power.

"The last auction item: The Thunder World-Destroying Cannon. The starting price is 1 million gold soul coins. Each bid must be no less than 1000 million gold soul coins."

As soon as Jiang Li finished speaking, the bidding started instantly like a volcanic eruption.

"1 million!"

Xu Tianran, the Crown Prince of the Sun-Moon Empire, was the first to raise his hand, his eyes gleaming with determination to win.

As the crown prince of the empire, he knew very well that in today's Douluo Continent where the strong prey on the weak and power struggles are constant, possessing such a powerful ninth-level soul guide would undoubtedly give the Sun-Moon Empire a greater advantage in the competition!

It is even possible to protect the Sun-Moon Empire from threats from other forces.

"2 million!"

Du Bu Si of the Benti Sect followed closely behind. His rough voice was like a huge bell, making people's eardrums hurt.

Although the Body Sect is famous for cultivating the body martial soul and pursuing the strength and perfection of one's own martial soul, he finds it difficult to suppress his inner desire when faced with such a powerful soul guide.

Possessing this ninth-level soul guide can not only enhance the strength of the Body Sect, allowing it to gain the upper hand in the battle with other forces, but also make his position in the soul master world more solid.

The bidding sounds came one after another, like a fierce battle.

Major forces such as the Star Luo Empire, Shrek Academy, and the Holy Spirit Church have joined in the fight.

The price climbed at an alarming rate and soon broke through the 10 billion mark.

……

As time passed, prices soared at an astonishingly terrifying rate.

Meanwhile, Old Xuan on the side secretly sighed, wondering if they could successfully obtain this ninth-level soul guide this time.

After all, Shrek Academy has almost put all its efforts into this soul guide and has taken out all its liquid funds. If it still fails, it will be a huge blow.

Moon noticed the change in Xuan Lao's state, patted him on the shoulder, and said softly: "Give it a try, this soul guide is worth everything we have."

There was a hint of firmness and trust in Moon's voice, as if injecting a shot of adrenaline into Old Xuan, making his originally wavering heart firm again.

"12 million!"

With Moon's support, Xuan Lao immediately continued to raise the price without hesitation, with a hint of solemnity in his voice.

Chapter 53 System Upgrade

"12 billion once. 12 billion twice."

Jiang Li slowly raised the auction hammer, and the atmosphere in the entire auction hall became extremely tense. Everyone held their breath, waiting for the final result.

It was as if time had stopped at this moment, the whole world fell into silence, and only the nervous heartbeat echoed in everyone's ears.

At this moment, Jing Hongchen immediately raised the auction card in his hand and once again participated in the competition for this ninth-level soul guide.

A trace of seriousness appeared on his face: "13 billion!"

This price was beyond his authority, but he simply could not bear to see this powerful soul guide fall into the hands of others.

Old Xuan felt that the price was a bit high. After hesitating for a moment, he looked at Moon. After the other party nodded, he took a deep breath.

"15 million!"

There was an uproar.

This number was like a thunderclap, exploding in everyone's hearts.

It has created the highest record in the auction history of Douluo Continent, shocking everyone.

At this time, Jing Hongchen fell into silence. A hint of helplessness flashed in his eyes, and he finally did not continue to participate in the next competition.

"15 billion once. 15 billion twice. 15 billion three times! Deal!"

As the auction hammer fell heavily, this ninth-level soul guide that changed the pattern of war finally fell into the hands of Shrek Academy.

"Grandpa, why should we give up the competition for this ninth-level soul guide?"

Xiao Hongchen, who was sitting next to Jing Hongchen, expressed his incomprehension.

They have made sufficient preparations this time, and logically speaking, they can definitely come up with 15 billion gold soul coins.

And according to his observation, the power of this Thunder World-Destroying Cannon, a ninth-level soul guide, is almost greater than all the ninth-level soul guides owned by their Mingde Hall.

It is very necessary to obtain a ninth-level soul guide with such powerful destructive power, whether as the foundation of Mingde Hall or for research purposes.

"Don't worry, I have my own plans. We at Mingde Hall are capable of producing a ninth-level soul guide. Although its power may not be as great as this Thunderbolt World-Exterminating Cannon, it still possesses terrifying destructive power."

"It's really not worth it to spend 15 billion gold soul coins to buy this ninth-level soul guide. With these gold soul coins, we can definitely create a few more ninth-level soul guides."

Jing Hongchen explained patiently, his eyes revealing a hint of wisdom and calmness.

"On the other hand, the secret soul guide device that Mingde Hall has been researching recently is almost complete. By then, Mingde Hall will change the landscape of soul guide devices."

At this time, Jing Hongchen expressed his inner thoughts and a confident smile appeared on his face.

Upon hearing this, Xiao Hongchen fell into silence.

His grandfather should be very clear about the strategic significance of this Thunder World-Destroying Cannon. Since he chose to give it up, he must have made sufficient plans.

"In the short term, Shrek Academy has no way of posing a threat to our Mingde Hall. You should know that Shrek Academy doesn't have a single ninth-level soul mentor, only an eighth-level soul mentor."

"And according to my observation, since this Thunder World-Exterminating Cannon can unleash such powerful power, its internal structure must be extremely sophisticated and ingenious. It would take several years for an eighth-level soul engineer to fully comprehend a ninth-level soul guide."

"Not to mention that even if you comprehend something, it will still take a long time to create a brand new ninth-level soul guide."

Jing Hongchen's gaze fell in the direction of Shrek Academy, and a strange look flashed in his eyes.

With the current level of soul guides at Shrek Academy, it is obviously impossible to do so. Perhaps in a few years, a ninth-level soul guide may not be able to rule the entire Douluo Continent.

Of course, there is another reason why Jing Hongchen gave up competing for this ninth-level soul guide.

That is the existence of the Star Auction Pavilion.

After all, the items brought out at each of the two auctions held by the Star Auction Pavilion were enough to subvert the cognition of the entire Douluo Continent's soul masters.

Perhaps it would not be surprising if the Star Auction House could come up with a tenth-level soul guide or even more powerful means of attack in the future.

"Alright everyone, our auction has concluded perfectly. We will hold another auction in a month. Everyone is welcome to visit the Xingchen Auction Pavilion then."

Jiang Li handed over the last ninth-level soul guide to Shrek Academy with a smile on his face, and immediately announced the official end of the auction.

With the end of the auction, most of the forces left the Star Auction Pavilion one after another.

However, there are still some forces that did not leave, but waited until the crowd gradually dispersed before leaving.

At this moment, Xu Tianran, the crown prince of the Sun Moon Empire, came to Jiang Li in a wheelchair, with a serious look in his eyes.

"Pavilion Master Jiang, could you please, Star Auction Pavilion, heal my legs?"

"Whatever the price, I can accept it."

Xu Tianran said with a heavy face, because he didn't know how many people looked down upon him because of his legs.

And because of these legs, many irreversible consequences have occurred.

Now that he has encountered an Extreme Douluo master with extreme life attributes, he must seize this opportunity and try to heal his legs.

Jiang Li was about to answer when a system notification sound suddenly rang in his mind:

[Detected that the host has accumulated more than 2 billion gold soul coins, and the system upgrade conditions are met]

[After the upgrade, the system store function will be opened, and the new auction point currency will be added. You can use the auction points to purchase anything the host needs in the system store.]

[Auction points can be obtained by changing the historical trajectory of Douluo Continent. The greater the change, the more points you will get.]

【Upgrade now? 】

Jiang Li chose "yes" without hesitation.

In an instant, he felt as if his spiritual world was infinitely expanded by a powerful force, and a dazzling virtual store slowly unfolded in his consciousness.

The store displays countless exciting treasures - from god-level martial spirits to super artifacts, and even tickets to travel through the world.

Each treasure exudes an alluring light, as if telling Jiang Li about their power and mystery.

When the prompt sound indicating that the system upgrade was complete sounded, Jiang Li looked at Xu Tianran with a completely different look.

Isn't curing the disabled legs of Xu Tianran, the Crown Prince of the Sun-Moon Empire, a perfect opportunity to change the course of history?

After all, during the Peerless Tang Sect period, Xu Tianran also had considerable influence.
