Chapter 172, Lori Mama!
"The backlash of poison magic?"
"That's right." Xu Fang sighed, took a sip of oolong tea: "No matter how you say it, this is also a law system, it's a pity to abandon cultivation." But if you suffer a backlash because of this, some of the gains outweigh the losses. โ
"Young people are inexperienced." Old man Bao smiled: "This matter, it is not difficult to say, and it is not easy to say that it is simple. โ
"You say."
Xu Fang put on a posture of listening attentively.
"There is no definite law, even if it is the same attribute, it will produce different branches. Thunder and fire mages have always taken the path of exporting destruction, but there are also some mages who choose to become forgers, and the same is true for the poison system. โ
Old man Bao said:
"Most poison mages will learn magic honestly and then suffer the backlash of magic, but some people choose the other two paths."
"The first is poison cultivation, releasing poison, collecting poison, refining medicine, every time they obtain a new toxin, their strength will increase by leaps and bounds!"
"And the second?"
Lingling leaned over without knowing anything, and listened fascinated.
Old man Bao rarely saw his little granddaughter like this, and he spoke more happily: "This second is insect cultivation, using poisonous insects as the foundation, raising a large number of poisonous insects, and cultivating them into attackable, defensible, and ever-changing creatures, similar to summoning mages." โ
"Both of these mages have abandoned the conformist poison magic, and only need the primary magic as a medium."
"And the power is far more than that of ordinary poison mages, and they can do anything in battle!"
Xu Fang was thoughtful.
"Of course, these two methods of cultivation are more dangerous, and if the newly introduced toxins are not properly refined, they are likely to poison themselves. The same is true for poisonous insects, if you are bitten by them, you can awaken at the first level after sixteen years. โ
Old man Bao is not a professor at Mingzhu Academy.
He doesn't skip the course for safety reasons, he just lists all the options in front of you, and the choice is up to you.
"Where do you know about toxins and poisonous insects?" Xu Fang asked.
Old man Bao said: "You can try your luck in the Hunter Alliance, many hunters will make some information into scrolls and sell them." If you have enough budget, you can also publish tasks directly.
Usually, I suggest that you go to the botany department of your school to audit, because toxins are inseparable from snakes and insects, and snakes and insects are inseparable from plants. โ
"Then you can't kill him?"
Ling Ling snorted lightly: "It is said that the pearl goddess is in the botanical department, and the two of them will attend classes together every day in the future, and they will be inseparable like glue, and in the end they won't even come to the hunting place." โ
Xu Fang: "Lingling, I only treat you as a sister." โ
"Huh? Ha!? Lingling jumped up from his seat: "Are you mistaken, I can eat your vinegar Leng Lingling?" I've always looked at you like a son! โ
"So that's it... I really can't help you. Xu Fang cleared his throat and said emotionally: "Ma Ma! โ
Lingling: "ยทยทยท"
Stiffly got up, and walked upstairs mechanically, the pace getting faster and faster, and Xu Fang could see the back of her neck that quickly turned red because of shame.
Xu Fang shouted: "Just kidding, who likes Lori Ma Ma in a serious person?" โ
The spirit fled faster.
Xu Fang leaned back with a smile, and was about to finish drinking the last bit of oolong tea, but found that his right hand was empty.
The cup that was still in my hand just now, I don't know when it disappeared, and there was a pool of unknown liquid on the table, shiny like... Glass?
On the other side, the old man Bao had a kind smile on his face.
Xu Fang cleared his throat and got up: "Old man, I'll leave first if there's nothing to do." โ
"Don't go."
Old man Bao stretched out his hand and pressed his shoulder, and said with a smile: "It's so late, stay and stay for one night, grandpa, I'll talk to you about the use of magic." โ

Two days later.
Modu International Trade Center, Rooftop Auction House, Premium Seats.
Xu Fang had never been to this kind of place before, and it was the blessing of Tuo Lingling that he got a pass.
Ling Ling said: "This kind of big auction hall is limited, either you spend a lot of money to buy a member here, or you have to have a certain status, such as a hunter master." โ
"Ma Ma YYDS!" Xu Fang touted.
Lingling glared at him fiercely, and the little yellow hair that had forgotten the pain after the scar was good!
She decided not to worry about this unobtrusive guy: "This is today's auction list, and the items we want are the ninth and twenty-fifth. โ
Xu Fang took the list, and it was full of various cultivation resources, and the prices were basically in tens of millions.
Regardless of the level, the things that a mage needs are so rare and expensive, which is why many people have to squeeze into the upper echelons of the family with their heads sharpened.
Just because the good things in the security realm have been divided up by these great families, you can't go out to pan for gold like a wild man again and again!
Lot 9 is an opaque box containing a few things, with a starting bid of $25 million.
Lot 25 is a dark red bowl, and the starting price is even more terrifying, 48 million!
Xu Fang flipped through the auction list, and half an hour later, the auction began.
The first lot is a fire-type spirit seed, which is contained in a spirit seed vessel, and the blazing flames can be felt from a long distance.
"The starting price is fifteen million, let's start bidding!"
As the auctioneer's words fell, many fire magicians competed to bid, and finally the spirit seed was won by a mage from an Eastern family for 20 million.
The second piece is a demon slaying tool, which is on the same level as Xu Fang's cloud slashing sword, and was won by someone for 25 million.
One by one, the atmosphere of the auction became more and more enthusiastic.
"Below is Lot 9, ten worm larvae from the Mongolian steppe, the starting price is 25 million, and the price increase shall not be less than 1 million each time, please bid!"
On the big screen, the sealed box was opened, and there were several white and chubby worms lying quietly inside.
It's like you've been pressed the pause button.
The auction hall that was still lively just now is quiet at the moment.
The auctioneer was a young man, and he was a little flustered when he saw this, and hurriedly introduced: "These worms have been identified by our appraiser, and their potential is amazing, even if they don't have a poisonous system, they can reach the level of a war general with blood cultivation!" โ
Still no one raised their cards.
"It's disgusting, who would buy something like that?"
"That's it, it's still cultivated with blood, it sounds so evil!"
"I've heard of the Mongolian Death Worm, that thing is cold and violent, if it backs up, we'll die!"
Hearing the conversation in the audience, the auctioneer's face was full of helplessness, and it seemed that the lot could only be lost.
At that moment, a voice rang out: "Twenty-five million." โ
Swish!
The auctioneer's eyes lit up: "This VIP bid 25 million, 25 million for the first time!" Twenty-five million for the second time! Twenty-five million for the third time! Deal! โ
As if afraid that Xu Fang would regret it, the auctioneer quickly dropped the small hammer.
It was only then that everyone saw his appearance clearly, and exchanged their heads: "Alas, a good handsome guy is gone." โ
"Young people always love to be demons, just two more heels to understand."
"I'm afraid I won't be able to get up this time, but I've heard that a mage who raises insects with blood will turn his body into a nest of poisonous insects, and his whole body is densely covered with insect eyes..."
"Gross! Don't say it, I'm already feeling nauseous! โ
The tenth lot is an egg of a blue velvet giant sparrow, according to the auctioneer, this blue velvet giant sparrow has the blood of Penglai lark, and it is good to cultivate an adult warlord-level demon...
No one listened to him, he had already been scrambling to bid, and the price had soared to 70 million and had not stopped!
