"Establish a position in the Mist Mountain Region?" Hu Lei had an epiphany upon hearing this.
The auction of the Mist Mountain Prison Guard Robots, such a grand endeavor that even the Mist Mountain Domain City couldn't accomplish; if the Black Obsidian Martial Arts Hall were to succeed, its influence and notoriety in the entire Mist Mountain Domain City would greatly enhance.
By then, perhaps in the minds of everyone in Mist Mountain Domain City, the Black Obsidian Martial Arts Hall could become a presence second only to the Mist Mountain Domain City.
After all, such an auction would gather many major forces, and even other domain forces outside the Mist Mountain Region would participate. Such a grand event is simply beyond what the Smiling Skull and Red Moon Commerce could organize.
"But can the Black Obsidian Martial Arts Hall really pull it off?" Hu Lei stroked his graying beard, involuntarily looking towards the sky giant ship carrying the Black Obsidian Martial Arts Hall. "With so many forces gathered, lacking sufficient strength would only make it a chaotic farce, especially with Earth Star Pharmaceutical watching, who certainly won't let go of this opportunity."
A shocking auction like this, if successful, would bring undeniable benefits, but to prevent the major forces from causing trouble or clashing with each other, absolute strength is required.
The current Earth Star Pharmaceutical, albeit possibly unable to send Blood Coagulation Realm experts, could easily send as many Bone Forging Realm experts as they wish. Moreover, if Earth Star Pharmaceutical is willing to offer some benefits, there are plenty of major forces in the Mist Mountain Region ready to collaborate with them.
At that time, getting these major forces' Blood Coagulation Realm experts to act, it's hard to imagine the Black Obsidian Martial Arts Hall withstands it.
The major forces in Mist Mountain Domain City usually have middle-tier experts of the Blood Coagulation Realm as their guard, such as Cangyi City and the Mercenary Alliance, which have strong martial artists of the high tier in the Blood Coagulation Realm as their guard.
It's hard to imagine how the Black Obsidian Martial Arts Hall would cope with these middle-tier, even high-tier martial artists of the Blood Coagulation Realm by then.
"That I do not know." Zhuo Gu shook his head, looking at the sky giant ship carrying the Black Obsidian Martial Arts Hall with a smile and said, "But I will definitely go to this auction. If I can get one or two guard robots then, perhaps they could help me break through that level."
"Indeed, this isn't something we need to be concerned about." Hu Lei also smiled and nodded; as for the auction five days later, he definitely planned to attend.
Currently, he was only a step away from the high tier of the Blood Coagulation Realm. After all, the cultivation method he practiced for the Blood Coagulation Realm was only of the initial tier, and he had little energy blood essence over the years. Reaching the middle tier's peak was already considered extraordinary talent.
If he could cultivate with the middle tier, even high tier, of the Blood Coagulation Realm cultivation method, he would've long since broken through to the high tier of the Blood Coagulation Realm, not stuck at the middle tier's peak for years without progress.
Even if the auction held by the Black Obsidian Martial Arts Hall couldn't be stabilized, he and Zhuo Gu could still fish in troubled waters. If they could grab one or two guard robots and get a high civilization's tidbits of Blood Coagulation Realm cultivation method, that alone would be a huge gain.
On the sky giant ship over Mist Mountain Domain City.
"This Hall Master Lin is truly insane, openly auctioning those guard robots. Isn't he afraid of being directly plundered by the major forces?" Priscilla, after looking at the announcement received by the ship, momentarily doubted her eyes.
If Lin Qi wanted to dispose of those guard robots, he could have sold them to them. Although the purchase price by the Domain City would be much lower, it was safe.
Now outright auctioning them, it's practically announcing to all forces, "I've got good stuff here, come and grab it if you dare."
"Perhaps that Hall Master Lin has his own considerations." Xie Feina said directly after reading the announcement, "After returning, let's prepare; this auction, we cannot miss it."
Although they couldn't understand why Lin Qi was so reckless, choosing not to retain those heritages and battle data to fortify the Black Obsidian Martial Arts Hall, yet chose to showcase them, the guard robots produced in the lower-level area of the prison were just as important to her. Even if she and Priscilla already obtained half of the Blood Coagulation Realm cultivation method, who would complain about having more in this area?
The same level of cultivation method may not always be suitable for individuals; forced cultivation under unsuitable conditions results in more effort but less reward. But if a suitable cultivation method is found, training becomes twice as effective.
Not to mention, if a more advanced cultivation method could be deciphered, it would be significantly beneficial for her future breakthroughs.
"I remember my teacher has many well-preserved initial-tier Blood Coagulation Realm cultivation methods; not sure if the teacher would be willing to exchange." Priscilla nodded in agreement.
Back in the prison, watching the gray-clothed disciples from the Black Obsidian Martial Arts Hall transport one guard robot after another, she pondered whether she could continuing trading with Lin Qi. After all, exchanging cultivation methods not useful to her for those beneficial to her, along with battle data, was a deal even a fool would know was profitable.
Unfortunately, Lin Qi didn't consider selling the stored data of the guard robots after that; otherwise, she would've borrowed money from her teacher for thirty years to buy them.
On the same day various ship forces at Mist Mountain Prison received the announcement, major forces across the Mist Mountain Region also learned of the news.
"An auction for guard robots? Those guard robots from the Mist Mountain Prison?"
