Refining it provides not only a greater boost to one's Fiend-Qi, but it also carries no side effects from medicinal impurities, making it the most sought-after cultivation pill for those in the Extreme Fiend Realm. However, this grade of Qi-Refining Pill is quite rare; even in the Golden Dragon Treasury branches across the Heavenly Origin Divine Continent, one might not see a single one for months, and whenever it appears, it is immediately snapped up by large factions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Luo had long since placed an order for a \"Nine-Orifice Qi-Refining Pill\" within the Dragon Tooth Line; although the chances of obtaining one were not low, it required waiting for some time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although Li Luo did not want to wait, there was no other way. The \"Nine-Orifice Qi-Refining Pill\" is rare, and with more monks than gruel, the fact that he only had to wait a little while was already due to his special status.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Therefore, seeing a \"Nine-Orifice Qi-Refining Pill\" appear before him right now, Li Luo was naturally delighted. It was truly like being handed a pillow when one is sleepy; if he could obtain this \"Nine-Orifice Qi-Refining Pill,\" his Fiend-Qi would see a significant boost, which would give him more confidence for the upcoming trip to the \"Spirit Phase Cave Heaven.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, what Li Luo found slightly strange was that this \"Nine-Orifice Qi-Refining Pill\" had no \"buy-it-now\" price set, which made competing for it a bit more troublesome.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But Li Luo still immediately entered a bid.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Five point five million.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Generally speaking, the value of a Nine-Orifice Qi-Refining Pill is around nine million, but the prices here are on the high side, and under special circumstances, they increase even further, so Li Luo estimated that this Nine-Orifice Qi-Refining Pill would be exceptionally difficult to win.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just as Li Luo expected, not long after he placed his bid, others followed suit, and in a short time, the price reached around 6.5 million.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This intense bidding war drew even more attention from those on the second floor.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qin Yi also tilted her beautiful face, watching the numbers constantly jumping on the light screen, her eyes flickering slightly. She could naturally guess that Li Luo, who was currently in the Extreme Fiend Realm, needed this pill the most.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Heh, this Li Luo wanting to obtain this 'Nine-Orifice Qi-Refining Pill' right under our noses is truly wishful thinking.\" Zhao Jingyu sneered, staring at Li Luo's side with malicious intent. After the incident in the Xiling Dark Domain, he hated Li Luo to the bone, and now this matter of the \"Nine-Orifice Qi-Refining Pill\" was the perfect opportunity for revenge.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Regardless, he would not let Li Luo obtain this pill easily; at the very least, he would make Li Luo bleed heavily.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thus, Zhao Jingyu immediately raised the price, and in an instant, the Nine-Orifice Qi-Refining Pill reached 7.5 million.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Luo’s expression remained calm; he did not even look toward Zhao Jingyu, but instead added another million, raising it to 8.5 million.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhao Jingyu was aggressive, raising the price in one go to ten million.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This price already exceeded the usual cost of a Nine-Orifice Qi-Refining Pill. Li Luo thought for a moment but did not continue the mindless bidding war. Although he had pre-drawn some of the Great House Master's offerings for this trip and had tens of millions of Heavenly Amount Gold on him, Zhao Jingyu was clearly bidding maliciously. If this continued, even if he could obtain the pill, he would have to pay a significant price.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Why did Dragon Head Li Luo stop bidding? Do you think it's not worth it?\" Zhao Jingyu stepped forward two paces and asked with a sinister tone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"If you want it, take it. Oh, your arm has been reattached? It's a pity it's not the original one,\" Li Luo glanced at him and said with concern.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhao Jingyu’s eyes turned furious, and he wanted to lash out, but he managed to hold it back, mocking: \"A dignified Dragon Head, truly frugal. Is it because you got used to living a poor life in a place like the Outer Divine Continent?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Facing Zhao Jingyu’s mockery, Li Luo didn't react, but Li Fengyi, who had been drawn over, was furious upon hearing this. She directly took out the bidding device and added to the price of the Nine-Orifice Qi-Refining Pill.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Twelve million!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The things your Zhao Heavenly King lineage does are always so beneath contempt,\" Li Fengyi said coldly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhao Jingyu grinned and countered by raising the price to 14 million. This price immediately caused quite a stir on the second floor. Many who were originally interested in the pill gave up one after another; the current situation was that both sides were just venting their anger, and it was a matter of who had deeper pockets.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Fengyi’s face was cold, and she was about to continue raising the price.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But Li Luo quickly stopped her. This kind of pointless bickering was truly unnecessary. Zhao Jingyu just wanted to wait for Li Luo and his group to drive the price up and then choose to give up himself; after all, this Qi-Refining Pill was of little use to him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Forget it, no need to spend this money. Let's just give it to him first. When we go to the Spirit Phase Cave Heaven later, if we have the chance, we can just look for it in his space ball. He’s a good person; remember last time? He snatched five dragon teeth at a high price and ended up giving them to us,\" Li Luo advised.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hm?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>People nearby heard this and stared straight at Li Luo. Just now, when Li Luo faced Zhao Jingyu’s aggression, he chose not to pay much attention, and they thought Li Luo had a soft personality, but looking at it now... this is a ruthless person.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Fengyi was both annoyed and amused, and she followed his advice and stopped bidding, but she still said fiercely to Zhao Jingyu: \"When we meet in the Spirit Phase Cave Heaven, it won't just be your hand that's gone this time!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhao Jingyu’s face twitched, his eyes filled with rage.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What big talk.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, before Zhao Jingyu could speak, an indifferent voice sounded first. The next moment, a heavy spear suddenly broke through the air, wrapped in powerful energy and carrying a sonic boom, shooting fiercely toward Li Fengyi.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Luo frowned slightly, stepped aside half a step, and the three phase palaces within his body roared. Phase power surged out, condensed on his fist, and transformed into the power of dual phases.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Boom!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He threw a punch, colliding with the heavy spear, and the violent energy immediately erupted.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Luo’s arm shook, and he felt an astonishingly huge force invade his body. He narrowed his eyes and directly channeled this force into the \"All-Phase Dragon Tooth Sword Array\" within his body, grinding it away in an instant.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The heavy spear shot back and landed on a staircase, where a thin young man with fierce eyes stood.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You have some skill to be able to take my spear,\" he stared at Li Luo and said indifferently.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"General Zhao!\" Li Fengyi’s pretty face changed as she looked at this person.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Luo glanced at him and said, \"Are people from the Zhao Heavenly King lineage all so disrespectful of the rules?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>General Zhao stood on the stairs, looking down at Li Luo, and said calmly: \"Only the incompetent talk about rules. Li Luo, you caused Jingyu to lose his arm in the Xiling Dark Domain. If we meet in the Spirit Phase Cave Heaven, I won't let you walk out alive.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Luo nodded and sighed: \"Last time Zhao Jingyu gave me five dragon teeth; it seems you plan to give me something this time too. Is your Zhao Heavenly King lineage running a charity?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Then you better be ready to receive it,\" General Zhao’s indifferent voice held an undisguised cruelty.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Also...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He glanced at the \"Nine-Orifice Qi-Refining Pill\" on the light screen and said: \"The bidding time is almost up.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Luo didn't react, but Li Fengyi wanted to make a move again. However, before she could raise the price, the price on the light screen suddenly soared to 20 million.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Whoa!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There was an uproar on the second floor, and many people looked stunned. For a Nine-Orifice Qi-Refining Pill, this price was truly way too high.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Who was this fierce person who didn't treat money as money?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Luo was also stunned, then looked at Li Fengyi. Li Fengyi quickly shook her head and said, \"It wasn't me.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhao Jingyu, on the opposite side, was also shocked by the skyrocketing price. A 20-million Nine-Orifice Qi-Refining Pill made even him feel a bit of heartache; after all, this would cost him half of his net worth.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So, after a slight hesitation, he didn't dare to continue bidding. Anyway, his goal was to prevent Li Luo from obtaining the pill, and in that sense, he had achieved his goal.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Li Luo, aren't you going to snatch it? We are entering the Spirit Phase Cave Heaven tomorrow; this is an excellent opportunity to improve your strength,\" Zhao Jingyu taunted Li Luo with a fake smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Luo ignored him, so after waiting for a while, the bidding for the Nine-Orifice Qi-Refining Pill ended successfully. The final price of 20 million made many of the wealthy prodigies present secretly click their tongues.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Such a spendthrift is truly rare.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Luo also sighed, then intended to continue viewing other items for sale. However, at this moment, a woman holding a jade box walked straight toward him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The jade box was open, and the pill with nine orifices inside made passersby stare without blinking.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Everyone recognized at a glance that this item was the \"Nine-Orifice Qi-Refining Pill\" that had just been auctioned.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The suspicious gazes of Qin Yi, Zhao Jingyu, General Zhao, and many others were cast over at this moment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The woman arrived in front of Li Luo and, under his puzzled gaze, presented the jade box with both hands.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"This is?\" Li Luo frowned slightly and asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Under the watchful eyes of everyone, the woman’s calm voice followed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Dragon Head Li Luo, a gift from an old friend; do not decline.\"\u003C\u002Fp>",1764,"2026-06-20T03:27:27.871Z",1,"Gemini 3.1 Flash Lite","759dacd20d614e144ee888025fc816aecc9b02d6f9e61dff0024e072d73b1218","king-of-all-manifestations-chapter-941","king-of-all-manifestations-chapter-939",999,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fking-of-all-manifestations-cover.jpg"]
