Chapter 47 Soul-devouring Carving Knife—Gold of Living Beings! A whole day has passed since the end of the first round of competition. Tomorrow, Shrek Academy will usher in the second round of the round-robin competition. That night, with full of expectations, Teacher Wang Yan led the seven members of the reserve team to go to the auction to relieve their tense nerves and relax. Originally, Wang Yan wanted to bring Ye Qian and Gu Yuena with him to join in the fun. However, because they had to seize the time to practice, they had to refuse Teacher Wang Yan's invitation, and the matter was left unresolved. In Ye Qian'an's room in Xingluo Hotel. "Qian, are we really not going to go and take a look?" Gu Yuena asked softly, her eyes falling on Ye Qian, who was meditating with his eyes closed. "If you want to buy something, you must act separately from them. This is the case now and will be the case in the future. There are all kinds of people in the auction, and almost all of them have ulterior motives. It is not uncommon for them to intercept buyers halfway." Ye Qian'an said, shaking his head slowly. "Then what should we do?" Gu Yuena frowned thoughtfully. "If you don't want others to know, then don't do it. However, this world itself is unreasonable. The strong can decide everything and even change everything. Let's go. Just leave two substitutes in the room, and then break through the space and go directly to the auction." Ye Qian'an said after standing up. Gu Yuena nodded, then raised her hand, and a substitute that looked exactly like the two of them instantly appeared and continued to practice on their behalf. The next second, a ray of light flashed, and their figures instantly disappeared in the room. Arriving not far from the auction, the two quickly completed their disguises. Ye Qian'an's disguise was fine, but Gu Yuena's dazzling silver-white hair was too attractive. The two came out this time to keep a low profile and did not want to attract attention. The place where the auction was held actually did not look very conspicuous. Above the door, there was a sign hanging with a clear hammer pattern on it and a golden table below the hammer.
From the outside, it seemed like just a small auction house, but when Ye Qian and Gu Yuena actually entered, they were surprised to find that there was something else going on. The building outside was actually just an entrance, and the real auction was actually underground. The two walked for an unknown amount of time before they finally arrived at the registration place. It is not easy to get a place to bid in this auction. Not only do you need to provide detailed proof of assets, but you also need to undergo a comprehensive assessment. If you go through the normal channels, it will take at least half a month of strict review before you can enter here. But are Ye Qian and Gu Yuena the kind of people who are willing to go through formal channels? The result is obvious, of course not. Gu Yuena used a little clever trick to swap the information of others with the information of the two people, and then erased the relevant memories of the two people whose information was swapped. After the two took their respective identity cards, a girl led them inside. At this time, they had already walked into a big door under the guidance of the etiquette lady. At the same time, Ye Qian'an also fully understood the specific content of today's auction. In fact, what Ye Qian'an cared most about in this auction was the Soul-Devouring Carving Knife. After entering the auction hall, the light suddenly dimmed. After entering the auction hall, both of them received a mask. Compared to the white masks of Wang Yan and his friends, Ye Qian'an and his friends received red ones. Ye Qian looked at Gu Yuena and said, "Put on all the masks." Gu Yuena nodded and slowly put on the red mask. The red mask covered the faces of both of them, while also revealing a hint of mystery. At this time, about 60% to 70% of the bidders were already seated in the auction hall. "Welcome, distinguished guests, to the Starlight Auction House. Our auction is about to begin. Please take your seats." The voices came clearly from all directions. The auction hall suddenly became quiet. The surrounding lights gradually dimmed, while the lights on the auction table began to gradually become stronger. A woman in a purple dress walked gracefully onto the stage from one side of the auction hall. "Good evening, distinguished guests, I am Qingya, a purple-level auctioneer from Starlight Auction House, and I will be hosting the auction today." After the auction officially started, one precious soul guide after another fell into Wang Yan's hands. It must be said that Shrek Academy is indeed rich. Ye Qi'an really doesn't like those soul guides. After all, who would want to play long-range with you when you have a battle armor? If Ye Qi'an is not wrong, the next last item should be the Soul Devouring Carving Knife he needs. The next moment, just as Ye Qian'an had expected, after Qingya lowered her voice and explained in detail the finale product of the auction, a cart slowly came up from the side of the auction table. The object covered by the bright red cloth immediately attracted everyone's attention. At this moment, Electrolux in Ye Qian'an's spiritual sea suddenly seemed to sense something, and the old voice said anxiously: "Little guy, take down the carving knife. The carving knife will be of great benefit to both you and me." Ye Qian'an sat up straight at once. Because his movement was too large, Gu Yuena turned around and saw Ye Qian'an's face full of hope. "Qian, do you want that carving knife?" Gu Yuena asked softly. Ye Qian nodded vigorously and said, "That carving knife is useful to me, and it is also useful to the spiritual consciousness in my body. And Nana, did you feel that the material of the carving knife is very similar to the metal you mentioned?" "You mean the gold of living beings?" After hearing what Ye Qian'an said, Gu Yuena looked at the carving knife carefully again and quickly determined that if there was no evil thought, it did contain a lot of vitality. At this time, Qingya on the auction table had already lifted the red cloth covering it, and then introduced it in detail. However, when everyone heard that this carving knife was the notorious Soul Devouring Carving Knife, they instantly felt very disgusted. No matter how good the ranking carving knife is, it cannot be compared with life. No one will joke with their own life.
"Soul-Devouring Carving Knife, the starting price is one hundred thousand gold soul coins, and each bid increase must not be less than five thousand gold soul coins. Distinguished guests, you may start bidding." Qingya said with a smile. In fact, she was not excited at all at the moment. She knew very well that this knife had been unsold many times. If it failed to sell again this time, it would probably be shelved. At this moment, a somewhat old voice sounded from the audience: "One hundred thousand gold soul coins." A sign was also held up, with 244 written on it. It was the sign held up by Ye Qian. When everyone, including the people from Shrek Academy, saw the red mask, they all understood at once that it was just something that a rich man wanted to collect. But who knew the real use of this carving knife? Under Qingya's repeated questioning, the audience did not respond. No one was willing to bid for this fierce knife, because everyone knew that once they made a bid, they would probably really make the deal. "One hundred thousand gold soul coins, the first time." Qingya had no choice but to start the last three bids. "One hundred thousand gold soul coins, the second time." "One hundred thousand gold soul coins, the third time. Deal!" "Bang." The auction hammer fell, announcing that this peerless and fierce sword fell into Ye Qian'an's hands, not Shrek Academy's. This was also the reason why Ye Qian'an let them leave first. After Ye Qian'an successfully bid for the Soul-Devouring Carving Knife, he was led by the etiquette lady to the backstage to complete the transaction. The moment he got the Soul-Devouring Carving Knife, Ye Qian'an immediately felt a strong resentment and evil aura coming towards him, but his powerful mental strength was strong enough to quickly suppress it and then quickly left the auction. Just like when they came, after the two of them took off their disguises, Gu Yuena took Ye Qian'an back to the room at Xingluo Hotel, and then removed the substitute used for disguise. "Mr. Yi, I got the carving knife. What should I do now?" After returning from vacation, Ye Qian'an sat cross-legged on the bed and cast a thought into the sea of spirituality. Electrolux's voice rang out in Ye Qian'an's spiritual sea: "Little guy, don't worry, give me your body, I will take care of the carving knife." At this moment, the color of Ye Qian'an's light golden eyes changed, and quickly turned into gray. His entire temperament also changed drastically. Gu Yuena, who was standing by, looked at Ye Qian'an's light golden eyes, which originally had a majestic look, but were now filled with endless dead silence. "Are you the spiritual consciousness in Qi'an's body?" Gu Yuena said to the person in front of her. "Yes, my name is Alex, but now is not the time to talk about this. I don't have much time left. I need to purify the gold of life as soon as possible so that I can stabilize my spiritual consciousness." An old voice came out from Ye Qian'an's mouth, and then his eyes focused on the soul-devouring knife. A faint gray light fell directly on the knife, and the knife suddenly trembled violently, and a buzzing sound like a shrill scream continued to come from the knife. "The instigator had the idea of injecting evil thoughts and curses into the Gold of Life. Purify it, Gold of Life, and I will definitely restore your original appearance. Drive away all filth and let your purest breath of life bloom." Alex said in a flat voice. The entire purification process was very short. Soon, the last wisp of black airflow on the Soul Devouring Blade quietly disappeared, and the green light emitted by its body became as clear as water, without a trace of impurities. The originally dark body of the carving knife also turned into a green crystal. "Your mental strength is very strong." Gu Yuena nodded and said. She usually didn't praise others, and it was obvious that Alex had won her recognition. Alex sighed deeply, "I didn't expect that I would be so weak. I would feel so tired and weak just by using the power of purification." After saying this, the gray in Ye Qian'an's eyes quietly disappeared, and he regained control of his body. Electrolux's weak voice sounded: "Stick it to your third eye, the Eye of Destiny, then concentrate and leave everything to me. Do you understand?" Ye Qian'an nodded and placed the purified gold of life vertically on his third eye. When the carving knife touched his skin, a green light flashed instantly, and an extremely rich and vigorous vitality was instantly infused into his body through the third eye between his eyebrows. An unprecedented feeling of comfort spread throughout his body. Ye Qian'an only felt that his body was greedily absorbing the strong vitality emanating from the gold of life. At the same time, he also felt that the fifth seal was faintly loosening. At this moment, there was already a flow of vitality in his sea of spirituality, but what came next would not be so easy to bear. The life force would begin to compete with the power of luck in the Eye of Destiny for dominance. Ye Qian'an gritted his teeth, trying hard to endure the clash of two forces in his body. His forehead was covered with sweat and his body was shaking slightly. Gu Yuena watched from the side, her hands unconsciously clenched. Once she made a move, the power of destiny would collide with the power of life, and they would become disordered if she was not careful. At this time, Electrolux's voice sounded again: "Concentrate and guide them to merge with each other instead of confronting each other!" Ye Qian took a deep breath upon hearing this, and according to Alex's instructions, he adjusted his mental state and tried to guide the fusion of the life force and the luck force. Gradually, the conflict between the two forces began to ease, and gradually formed a delicate balance. Originally, his third eye could see the destiny of each person and deprive them of the luck force. Now his third eye can also deprive them of the life force. A grey light flickered, and an old man in white with a haggard face appeared in Ye Qian'an's sea of consciousness, and said in a gentle voice, "From now on, this eye of yours is called Lingyun Dragon Pupil, and this will be the place where I am accommodated. After I stabilize, I will open a gap on your fifth seal for your improvement. Okay, I am now going to complete the fusion with that eye." As he spoke, Alex drew a line with his right hand in front of him, and a green light gate appeared in front of him. The shadow he transformed into stepped into the light gate and disappeared. His eyes closed and the breath of Alex disappeared. The next moment, Ye Qian felt dizzy and dazed for a moment. When he opened his eyes again, he found himself sitting back on the bed. Gu Yuena was sitting beside him, looking at him nervously.
"I'm fine. The carving knife made from this piece of gold of life has caused my fifth seal to show signs of loosening. After it stabilizes, Elder Yi will open a gap in the fifth seal and allow me to absorb it gradually." Ye Qian wiped the sweat from his face and breathed a sigh of relief. "It's good that you're okay. Now let's use the power of the Dragon God to stabilize your sea of spirituality." Gu Yuena nodded and said, then sat cross-legged on the bed opposite Ye Qian'an. "Okay." Ye Qian'an responded, and at the same time raised his hands and touched Gu Yuena's hands. I saw a golden halo wrapping the two of them, and the power of the Dragon God was also stabilizing Ye Qian'an's spiritual sea. As time passed, the golden halo around Ye Qian'an and Gu Yuena became more and more intense. Under the nourishment of the Dragon God's power, Ye Qian'an's originally disordered breath gradually stabilized, and his spiritual sea returned to peace. …… (End of this chapter)
