Jiang Li quietly returned to his room, his mind filled with countless thoughts, and began preparing for the upcoming first auction.
His body had directly transmigrated to the Douluo Continent without bringing anything with him.
Now, the items for the first auction could only rely on the ten items he had just drawn from the system.
Under the soft light, Jiang Li carefully examined these precious items.
A 30,000-year-old head soul bone with a spiritual attribute.
The Ultimate Fire Martial Soul—Blazing Heavenly Dragon.
A bottle of intermediate healing potion, capable of healing all injuries below the Soul Emperor level.
The corpse of a 20,000-year-old Netherworld Demon Wolf Soul Beast.
A 50,000-year-old Qirong Tongtian Chrysanthemum Immortal Herb.
Five divinely bestowed soul rings.
And a blueprint for a level 5 soul tool.
Jiang Li knew that the protagonist of this auction was undoubtedly the Ultimate Fire Martial Soul—Blazing Heavenly Dragon.
Although this martial soul was astonishingly powerful, his own Nine-Colored Divine Lotus Martial Soul also contained the Ultimate Fire attribute.
If he were to use it as his second martial soul, it would inevitably occupy a precious martial soul slot.
Jiang Li secretly hoped that he could obtain another powerful and unique martial soul from the system's lottery in the future, thereby comprehensively enhancing his strength.
After all the auction items were prepared, Jiang Li slowly stood up. After careful consideration, he decided to have Lei Yao personally deliver the invitations.
In this world where strength reigns supreme, only in this way could he attract sufficient attention from others.
Otherwise, when others heard that an ultimate fire martial soul was being auctioned, their first reaction would inevitably be disbelief.
Such a fantastical event was unimaginable even for top-tier Title Douluo powerhouses.
Jiang Li planned to use this auction to thoroughly establish the prestige of the Star Auction Pavilion.
"Lei Yao, there's an important matter I need you to handle."
Jiang Li's voice was steady and powerful as he handed Lei Yao a dozen invitations, speaking seriously.
"Deliver these invitations to Shrek Academy, the Star Luo Empire, Mingde Hall, and other places in that order."
"If you encounter any powerful Soul Masters along the way, you can deliver the invitations there as well, but make sure they sense the mystery and power of this auction."
"Yes, Pavilion Master, rest assured, I guarantee I'll complete the task!"
Lei Yao's lips curled into a confident smile.
He took the invitations, and a dazzling bolt of lightning flashed as Lei Yao's figure instantly tore through space and vanished without a trace.
Jiang Li had complete confidence in Lei Yao's abilities.
After all, a Limit Douluo personally delivering the invitations would definitely make the recipients feel the power of the Star Auction Pavilion.
These invitations were for Soul Masters who were powerful and influential on the Douluo Continent.
As for the other seats within the auction pavilion, Jiang Li planned to allow others to enter after the auction began, giving more people the opportunity to witness this grand event.
The auction price of the Ultimate Fire Martial Soul would undoubtedly be outrageously high, affordable only to truly powerful individuals and extremely wealthy entities.
After handling the preliminary matters of the auction, Jiang Li turned his attention to his cultivation.
He planned to add soul rings to his powerful Nine-Colored Divine Lotus Martial Soul.
The Nine-Colored Divine Lotus Martial Soul had granted him level 30 innate soul power.
He no longer needed to hunt soul beasts to obtain the five divinely bestowed soul rings he had just obtained from the system lottery.
The unique feature of divinely bestowed soul rings was their ability to automatically attach soul skills most suitable for the user's Martial Soul.
This not only greatly saved him time in searching for spirit beasts, but also avoided the dangers he might encounter when fighting powerful spirit beasts.
In the current Douluo Continent, spirit beasts with extreme attributes are already rare, and finding one of the right age and matching attributes is even more difficult.
"Lingyun, could you please assist me? I'm about to absorb the divinely bestowed spirit ring."
Jiang Li's voice carried a hint of caution.
He knew that his body was from another world, and his physical strength was relatively weak.
Even with the blessing of the Nine-Colored Divine Lotus Martial Soul, absorbing a high-age spirit ring as his first was almost impossible.
He needed to rely on Lingyun's powerful life force to assist him.
If he couldn't hold on during the absorption process, Lingyun's life force could heal the damage caused by absorbing the spirit ring, thus increasing his absorption limit.
"No problem, Sect Master, please absorb with peace of mind. With me here, you won't be harmed."
Lingyun's voice was like heavenly music, a gentle smile blooming on her beautiful face, her eyes filled with concern.
Jiang Li nodded solemnly and slowly opened his palm.
In an instant, the Nine-Colored Divine Lotus Martial Soul bloomed with dazzling light, various colors of light intertwining and flashing in the void, releasing a mysterious aura that made one's heart tremble.
Jiang Li took out three golden spheres from his robes; these were the precious divinely bestowed soul rings. With a gentle crushing, they would automatically condense into soul rings.
"Bang!"
Taking a deep breath, Jiang Li picked up one of the divinely bestowed soul rings and crushed it with a sudden burst of force with his right hand.
Golden specks of light scattered into the air like shooting stars. Then, a golden soul ring slowly appeared around Jiang Li.
As soon as he crushed the soul ring, its color abruptly changed from pure white to a bright yellow, and the color gradually deepened.
As time passed, when the soul ring's age was about to reach one thousand years, Jiang Li's body began to tremble uncontrollably, and he felt unbearably hot.
He knew that he had reached the limit of this soul ring.
"Light of Life!"
Ling Yun, who had been closely monitoring Jiang Li's condition, acted without hesitation upon seeing this.
With a gentle wave of his right hand, a soft green light instantly dispersed into the air, forming a huge and warm green ring that enveloped Jiang Li.
A continuous stream of life force, like a gentle stream, poured into Jiang Li's body.
Jiang Li, who had almost given up, felt this powerful and warm life force and let out a long sigh of relief.
Even at this crucial moment of absorbing the spirit rings, Jiang Li couldn't help but marvel.
"This is the power of ultimate life attribute, it's terrifying!"
He had almost collapsed, but after absorbing just a little life force, he regained his vitality, as if filled with boundless power.
Several hours passed.
With Ling Yun's assistance, Jiang Li finally successfully absorbed all three spirit rings.
He let out a long sigh, opened his eyes, and saw three spirit rings of different colors floating around him: a deep purple, a dark purple, and a black.
Thanks to Ling Yun's powerful life force, Jiang Li's third spirit ring reached an astonishing ten-thousand-year age.
"Phew, finally absorbed it successfully."
Jiang Li looked at the Nine-Colored Divine Lotus Martial Soul radiating a soft light in his hand, a satisfied smile appearing on his face.
