Ning Tian hesitated for a moment, but finally nodded and agreed: "Okay!"
.........
Soon, Ning Tian found Huo Yuhao in the academy and showed him the level-three soul tool he had made. Huo Yuhao naturally praised it without reservation.
After all, the entire Nine Treasure Glazed Tile School had pledged allegiance to the Sun Moon Empire, and the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile School geniuses, led by Ning Tian, were studying at the academy, so they could be considered allies.
You can be a little less friendly to the enemy, but you should naturally be more friendly to your allies.
"By the way, Huo Yuhao, there's a Mingdu auction today. I heard there are a lot of good things going on. If you're free, could you come with me?" Ning Tian said with a smile.
Wu Feng, standing to the side, was practically grinding her teeth to powder, but she still tried her best to maintain a smile on her face. She dared not jump out at this moment and ruin Ning Tian's good deed.
Otherwise, even if Ning Tian chooses not to pursue the matter out of consideration for their years of friendship, he will not fare well once the powerful figures within the sect find out about it.
Upon hearing this, Huo Yuhao was somewhat taken aback. He naturally saw through Ning Tian's little scheme, but upon further reflection, he felt that the other party's request was perfectly reasonable.
After all, even at the Sea God's Fate Blind Date in the original novel, Ning Tian extended an invitation to Huo Gua, who had displayed exceptional talent.
"Okay!" Huo Yuhao nodded in agreement. It's fine to relax occasionally by participating in an auction. If you're always tense, it's actually detrimental to your cultivation. Even Huo Yuhao in the original story had a period where his nerves were constantly on edge, and he even showed signs of going crazy.
Ning Tian's smile widened: "Shall we go?"
"Hmm." Huo Yuhao took the lead, walking out of the room and then out of the courtyard gate, with Ning Tian and Wu Feng following closely behind.
At that moment, a female voice rang out: "Junior Brother Yuhao."
Huo Yuhao turned his head and saw a pretty figure in the distance. Upon closer inspection, he realized it was Meng Hongchen, so he immediately called out, "Senior Sister Meng."
Meng Hongchen stepped forward, her slightly unfriendly gaze sweeping over Ning Tian and Wu Feng behind Huo Yuhao, making the two of them somewhat uncomfortable.
She narrowed her eyes slightly: "Junior Brother Yuhao, what's going on here?"
Before Huo Yuhao could answer, Ning Tian stepped forward and said with a smile, "It's like this, I invited Huo Yuhao to take me to today's Mingdu Auction. It was my fault for not informing Senior Sister Meng about this beforehand."
Meng Hongchen sensed the sharpness in Ning Tian's words and felt displeased. "I was talking to Huo Yuhao. Did I ask you to speak?"
Chapter 781 Such an awesome soul beast cannot exist.
Meng Hongchen could tell at a glance that Ning Tian was obviously interested in Huo Yuhao, and her favorability towards Ning Tian immediately plummeted.
Of course, although she was unhappy, she didn't show it on her face; instead, her smile grew even wider.
"Perfect timing, I'm also going to participate in the Mingdu Auction. Why don't we go together? Young Sect Master Ning shouldn't mind if I get in the way, right?"
Upon hearing this, Ning Tian's smile froze slightly, but he quickly recovered: "How could I find Senior Sister Meng in the way? I'm overjoyed!"
After all, Senior Sister Meng is older than us, a native of Mingdu, and has lived in this city since childhood. Her experience participating in Mingdu auctions is extremely rich, and she can help us avoid many pitfalls at Mingdu auctions.
The older woman's pronunciation was very heavy, as if she was doing it on purpose, and her words implied that Meng Hongchen was older than her.
Meng Hongchen's eyelids twitched slightly as she listened, but her expression remained unchanged: "I'm glad you don't find me in the way."
Huo Yuhao, standing to the side, looked at the two of them and felt like he was a hot commodity, with both of them wanting to take a bite. He was somewhat helpless.
Then, Meng Hongchen looked at Huo Yuhao beside her and said, "Junior Brother Yuhao, I heard that there are quite a few interesting things at this Mingdu Auction."
I thought you might be interested in the grand finale, which is why I came here to find you.
As the granddaughter of the dean of the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy, she held an extremely high position and naturally had many ways to obtain information.
After realizing that Huo Yuhao might be interested in the final item, she came to find him, intending to tell him about it.
Of course, she also had the idea of inviting Huo Yuhao to participate in the auction and spending more time together, but she never expected that Ning Tian, this plague god, would beat her to it.
However, news of the Mingdu Auction being held today had already spread throughout the Sun and Moon Empire, but information about the grand finale item was not something everyone knew.
Although Ning Tian is the young sect leader of the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile School and has pledged allegiance to the Sun Moon Empire, her foundation within the Sun Moon Empire is not as deep as her own, so naturally she cannot know about the auction's final item.
As for Junior Brother Yuhao, although he holds a very high position in the Sun Moon Empire, he doesn't know everything. After all, that would take too much of his energy. He always needs someone to help filter things before informing him.
Upon hearing this, Huo Yuhao was somewhat taken aback: "The grand finale?"
“Yes, the grand finale.” Meng Hongchen stepped closer, a smile in her eyes.
"What exactly is the grand finale?" Huo Yuhao asked.
"News about the Thunderous Hell Vine," Meng Hongchen said frankly.
"Thunderous Hell Vine? Let's go, let's set off now." Huo Yuhao's eyes lit up; he was indeed very interested in this item.
This is a plant-based spirit beast, born with intelligence. Unlike ordinary spirit beasts, it must undergo a baptism of lightning to become stronger.
Lightning is extremely violent, so the mortality rate of Thunder Hell Vine is very high. They are basically destroyed by lightning during their growth process.
Even on the entire Douluo Continent, the Thunderous Hell Vine is considered a rare soul beast.
Of course, Huo Yuhao's interest in the Thunderous Hell Vine mainly stemmed from a legend surrounding it.
Legend has it that the Thunder God, a first-level deity in the God Realm, fell and his body fell on the Douluo Continent, giving rise to the Thunder Hell Vine, a soul beast. Therefore, the Thunder Hell Vine is considered a soul beast with the bloodline of the Thunder God, making it extremely extraordinary!
However, the number of these soul beasts is extremely small, and unlike ordinary soul beasts, they don't have any seeds; they seem to appear out of nowhere.
The reason he made this judgment was mainly because Qi Luo in the Legend of the Dragon King once said that the Thunderous Hell Vine had also appeared in the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Eye. For safety reasons, Qi Luo and other plant soul beasts joined forces to destroy it.
After all, when the Thunderous Hell Vine is cultivated to a certain level, it can not only actively draw lightning to temper itself, but also turn a place into a lightning pool as its cultivation level increases, which is almost equivalent to divine punishment. This is undoubtedly a catastrophe for the many plant soul beasts in the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well.
Based on the timeline, it's impossible for Tang San to have planted the Thunder Hell Vine near the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well. Although Tang San likes to test others, killing the plant spirit beasts that have been growing for a long time would not be conducive to cultivating Tang family members or loyal followers for him.
Tang San would never do such a losing business.
Therefore, the appearance of the Thunderous Hell Vine near the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well seems rather strange.
The group headed to the auction in a grand procession. To avoid any problems, Ning Tian and Wu Feng consciously wore masks, revealing only their eyes.
The situation is fine within the academy; it's mostly staff members, so there's no need to worry about their information being leaked.
Outside the academy, things are quite different. Mingdu is a melting pot of all sorts of people, and there might be spies lurking around.
On the way, Huo Yuhao communicated with the consciousness of the plane in his mind: "I have a question for you. Is the Thunder Hell Vine really related to the God of Thunder, as the legends say?"
Although the Thunderous Hell Vine is a decent soul beast, he is more concerned about the first-level deity, the Thunder God.
The dimensional consciousness spoke frankly: "Strictly speaking, there is indeed a connection, and the legends about the Thunderous Hell Vine are true. You probably want to use the Thunderous Hell Vine to find the Thunder God's corpse, right?"
Huo Yuhao did not deny it, and said in his mind, "Since you say so, then I am relieved. That's right, I do want to see if I can find the corpse of the Thunder God through the Thunder Hell Vine. After all, he was a first-level god. If he can leave something behind, it will be of great value."
According to Huo Yuhao's estimation, Thor must have died in the great battle when the Dragon God went mad, and that's how his body fell onto Douluo Continent.
Of course, in today's divine realm, a first-level deity is considered a main god, but in the vast Divine Dragon Realm of yesteryear, which was the predecessor of the divine realm, the status of a first-level deity was not high.
It should be noted that in the Divine Dragon Realm, apart from the Dragon God, the king of gods, there are at least fourteen other god-king level powerhouses. Well, the nine dragon kings, as well as the first generation of Destroyer, are all god-king level powerhouses.
"Thor's body does exist, but it's not so easy to get. After all, although the body is still on Douluo Star, it currently belongs to Tang San. Before he ascended to the God Realm, he not only moved the Golden Tree to Shrek Academy, but also made some arrangements for Thor's body for his own benefit."
"Tang San's arrangements? Could you explain in detail?" Huo Yuhao asked telepathically, feeling that Tang San had to get involved in everything, and was simply someone who wouldn't do anything without a profit.
The sigh of the plane's consciousness echoed in Huo Yuhao's mind: "Yuhao, you must have heard the rumors that the plane's master suppressed the growth of the Thunder Hell Vine, right?"
"Yes, I have indeed heard of it. It is said that once the Thunder Hell Vine becomes a 100,000-year-old soul beast, it can truly revive the bloodline of the Thunder God, and there will be no more threat of divine punishment, allowing it to continue to grow."
Huo Yuhao's words, conveyed through his thoughts, carried a hint of mockery: "Therefore, the plane's ruler does not allow such a powerful soul beast to exist, and thus suppresses the Thunder Hell Vine."
Chapter 782 Face Change
"Under the suppression of the plane lord, the Thunderous Hell Vine can only grow to a level of 50,000 years at most. After that, it will inevitably be destroyed by lightning and will never be able to become a 100,000-year soul beast."
In fact, he still remembers that in the Legend of the Dragon King, Tang Wulin's Thunderous Hell Vine spirit actively broke the contract and directly betrayed Tang Wulin's side.
After all, the person the Thunderous Hell Vine's soul initially followed broke their promise to it, making it very unhappy.
Furthermore, Tang Wulin, as a so-called "favored one of the planes," can provide a vast amount of life energy to the Thunderous Hell Vine, helping it to gradually grow through the tempering of thunder and have the opportunity to advance into a 100,000-year-old soul beast.
In fact, the consciousness of a plane can essentially be called the master of a plane, but the master of a plane in later generations is definitely Tang Hao, the usurper.
At this moment, the consciousness of the plane was extremely helpless, looking as if it had been troubled by the rumors for a long time: "In fact, the Douluo plane does not impose any restrictions on the growth of the Thunder Hell Vine, nor does it suppress it."
This was entirely because the Thunderous Hell Vine itself did not have enough life energy, which is why it died under the lightning at most 50,000 years later.
Even a noble son of the Dragon King like Di Tian can be accommodated in the Douluo Continent. Could it be that the Thunder God bloodline within Lei Ming Yan Yu Teng is even more noble than the Dragon King bloodline?
Upon hearing this, Huo Yuhao agreed.
In fact, if Thor were merely a first-level deity, the bloodline inherited by Lei Mingyan Yuteng would naturally be incomparable to that of Di Tian.
"Then where does this claim of suppression come from?"
The plane consciousness continued to respond: "Naturally, it was Tang San who secretly pushed for this. Once the rumor spread, the number of human soul masters willing to go and cause trouble for Lei Ming Yan Yu Teng decreased significantly."
After all, there are plenty of lightning-attribute soul beasts in this world. If a soul master is caught in the so-called divine punishment while fighting the Thunderous Hell Vine, it would be a great loss.
The Thunder God bloodline within Lei Ming Yan Yu Teng will gradually grow stronger as its cultivation level increases.
According to Tang San's plan, once the Thunder Hell Vine dies from the lightning it summons, its essence blood will be drawn into the corpse of the Thunder God.
Huo Yuhao's eyes flickered slightly, and he already had some ideas.
Could Tang San have orchestrated this for the sake of his descendants?
The death of a first-level deity does not mean the loss of their divine position. If the position still exists, it may be left to some future descendant of the Tang family.
With that thought in mind, he continued forward, a barely perceptible golden glint flashing in his eyes.
Relying on his powerful mental strength, he separated a spiritual entity, moved away from the place, and continued to communicate with the plane's consciousness about Thor's corpse.
If possible, he would naturally want to get his hands on this thing. After all, it was the corpse of a first-level god, and if it still had a divine position, it would be very valuable.
As for his true self, he went to the auction with Meng Hongchen and the others. After all, he had promised to attend the auction, so he couldn't go back on his word.
If I need to use the main body later, I can simply leave early.
..........
In the realm of the gods, radiance and mist intertwined, enveloping the majestic, azure temple that resembled a towering mountain, making it appear even more magnificent and awe-inspiring.
Inside the hall.
Tang San sat cross-legged, a glint of light flashing in his eyes: "Not bad, another Thunder Hell Vine has fallen to the lightning."
According to my plan, the essence blood can tear through space and return to Thor's corpse.
In this way, Thor's corpse can be further nourished, and the slightly damaged divine seat of Thor within Thor's corpse can be slowly repaired over time under the nourishment of his essence and blood.
After all, the bloodline of the Thunder God contained within the essence blood does indeed have some repairing effect on the Thunder God's divine position.
