Absolute Resonance - Chapter 946

Chapter 0946: Nine Orifices

When the Nine Orifices Dipper Smelting Pill appeared on the screen, it not only attracted Li Luo’s attention, but also countless shocked gazes from the others on the second level.

The Nine Orifices Dipper Smelting Pill was the highest grade of Dipper Smelting Pills. It would increase one’s Fiend Dipper Energy by a significant amount, and there would be no side effects due to the refinement process. Thus, this was the most highly sought after pill for those at the Fiend Finisher Tier. However, they were rarely seen, and even the Golden Dragon Bank branch in the Heavenly Origin Divine Continent only found one every few months. Every time one appeared for sale, every single superpower would look to snatch it up.

Li Luo had already requested for the Dragon’s Fang Lineage to obtain a Nine Orifices Dipper Smelting Pill, but the odds of finding one were slim. Thus, he would have to wait for quite a while. Although he didn’t want to wait, there was no other choice. The Nine Orifices Dipper Smelting Pill was simply too precious and scarce. There were too many monks and too little gruel to go around, so he had to wait even with his special status.

Thus, he was filled with exuberance as soon as he saw the Nine Orifices Dipper Smelting Pill appear on the screen. This was like finding a pillow when he was drowsy. If he could obtain it, his Fiend Dipper Energy would increase significantly and he would have greater confidence in the Spiritual Resonance Cave expedition.

However, what Li Luo found strange was that the Nine Orifices Dipper Smelting Pills did not have a buyout price, and it looked as though a struggle would ensue over it.

Still, Li Luo immediately entered his bid.

“Five and a half million skygold.”

Normally speaking, the price of a Nine Orifices Dipper Smelting Pills was around nine million skygold. However, the prices of the goods here were on the higher side, and with the special circumstances at hand, Li Luo knew that he likely wouldn’t be able to afford it.

As Li Luo continued to ponder over his bidding strategy, a few new bids came in shortly after, and the new price was six and a half million skygold.

The sudden increase had attracted countless individuals’ attention.

Qin Yi lifted her head gently, showing her beautiful face. She was peering at the constantly jumping bid. Her eyes flickered slightly as she could instinctively guess that Li Luo needed this pill the most.n𝐎𝗏)𝑒𝑙𝐮/𝓈𝒷.𝚌)0-𝓂

“Hmph! There is absolutely zero chance Li Luo will get his hands on the Nine Orifices Dipper Smelting Pill when we’re around.” Zhao Jingyu coldly grinned as he shot a dirty glance towards Li Luo. He hated Li Luo to the bone after what had happened in the Western Region’s Dark Domain, and this would be a good way to sate his vengeance.

He would not let Li Luo obtain it without a fight. He would make the latter pay a heavy price if he wished to do so.

Thus, Zhao Jingyu happily placed a bid, and the price of the pill increased to seven and a half million skygold.

Li Luo remained calm, never once looking towards Zhao Jingyu. He then increased the bid by another million.

Zhao Jingyu then aggressively raised the bid to ten million in one go.

This was already above the estimated value of the pill. After thinking about it, Li Luo no longer continued to bid mindlessly. Although he had received his Hall Master salary in advance and possessed several dozen million skygold, Zhao Jingyu was clearly maliciously targeting him with his bids. Therefore, he would have to overpay a significant amount to secure the pill.

Zhao Jingyu mockingly asked in a loud voice, “Does Dragon’s Head Li Luo no longer wish to bid? Is it not worth it to you?”

“If you want it so much, just take it. Oh? It looks like you managed to find a new arm to stick back on. It’s a pity it’s not the original one,” Li Luo remarked as he glanced at him carefully.

Li Luo glanced at him momentarily before retorting, “Is everyone from the Bloodline of Heavenly Emperor Zhao unruly?”

Zhao Shenjiang stood in place as he observed Li Luo. “Only the weak care about rules, Li Luo. You chopped off Jingyu’s arm in the Western Region’s Dark Domain, so if we meet in the Spiritual Resonance Cave, I won’t let you leave alive.”

Li Luo nodded and sighed. “Zhao Jingyu ended up serving me five dragon fangs the last time we met. You should probably decide what you want to offer me as a gift as well. From my impression, the people of the Bloodline of Heavenly Emperor Zhao are very charitable.”

“Then you better receive it well.” Zhao Shenjiang’s sudden reply was steeped in unrestrained killing intent. “Furthermore…” He glanced at the Nine Orifices Dipper Smelting Pill that was currently being bid for.

“It’s almost time.” Li Luo didn’t respond, but just as Li Fengyi was about to act, the bid on the screen changed. It rose to twenty million!

The second level erupted into shock, and everyone glanced at each other in absolute disbelief. This was more than double the pill’s actual value.

Was there someone else in the room didn’t understand the value of money?

Li Luo was a little taken aback. He glanced at Li Fengyi, who hurriedly shook her head. “It wasn’t me.”

Even Zhao Jingyu was completely shocked by the explosive increase in price. Even he would feel the pinch if he spent twenty million on the pill, as that was close to half his net worth.

Thus, he hesitated and no longer dared to raise the bid. His aim was just to obstruct Li Luo from obtaining the pill smoothly, and it seemed as though his goal had been achieved.

“Li Luo, aren’t you going to fight for it? You’re entering the Spiritual Resonance Cave tomorrow, and it’s the best way for you to raise your strength.” Zhao Jingyu flashed Li Luo a smile that was not a smile.

Li Luo ignored him. A moment later, the Nine Orifices Dipper Smelting Pill was successfully auctioned off without further complications. The final price of twenty million skygold made countless wealthy geniuses click their tongues.

Such a waste of resources was not often seen.

Li Luo similarly sighed as he planned to continue browsing the goods available. However, shortly after, a lady appeared before him with a jade case in hand.

It was slightly ajar, and one could see an eye-catching pill with nine orifices inside. This attracted everyone’s attention.

Everyone instantly recognized that it was the Nine Orifices Dipper Smelting Pill.

Qin Yi, Zhao Jingyu, Zhao Shenjiang, and the rest similarly looked over as well.

When the lady arrived before Li Luo, she delivered the jade case to him before his suspicious gaze.

Li Luo frowned and asked, “What is this?”

Under the crowd’s watchful eyes, the lady calmly announced, “Dragon’s Head Li Luo, do not decline a gift from an old friend.”
