It is said that Lu Lin comes from a small world, so why is he unmoved by this? Could he have encountered similar objects before?

But the Sound and Image Stone from Refining Star Mountain was first used five hundred years ago. Although it appears at every Refining Star Treasure Appreciation Conference since then, its performance is not stable and requires frequent adjustments, and no other force has acquired it.

Where did Lu Lin see it?

Hong Fu Mountain introduced the designers and refiners showcased this time. A hundred years ago, Refining Star Mountain accepted over ten thousand new disciples, yet only thirty-two refiners’ works are on display now.

Reportedly, these were handpicked by the Refiner Elders of Refining Star Mountain, selecting the thirty-two best among them.

"This time at the Reward Treasure Conference, none of you will be disappointed. We have prepared one hundred and four exhibits for you, so those interested can be ready to bid. At this moment, you must certainly not hesitate; hesitation might let the treasure you fancy be snatched away by someone else."

"Alright, joking aside, let’s formally enter the treasure appreciation session with the first exhibit."

As Hong Fu Mountain spoke, the camera shifted, revealing a tip of an iceberg covered in black velvet.

The camera then zoomed out, allowing participants of the Reward Treasure Conference to see that the object is a giant, shaped somewhat like a ship.

"Today’s first auction item, the Nether Sea Treasure Ship."

"This treasure ship was crafted by the refiner Cao Xiang, taking over forty years to complete. The treasure ship is four hundred and twenty-three meters long, one hundred and eight meters wide, and inside it houses a small cave world accommodating thirty thousand people’s normal living and cultivation."

"Indeed, you must also have noticed its name, Nether Sea."

"That’s correct; just as you think, this treasure ship can delve into the Nether Sea and explore the Dragon Sea Dragon Palace, without fearing the erosion of the Nether Sea."

"Although crafted by a novice refiner, its performance is comparable to the Flying Shark Minghai Treasure Ship made by Elder Ou Yang a hundred years ago."

"Refiner Cao Xiang happens to be Elder Ou Yang’s Direct Disciple."

"Now, you fellows can freely appreciate the structure of this treasure ship and start bidding."

"The starting bid for the Nether Sea Treasure Ship is Three Million Star Stones."

"Eight Million."

Hong Fu Mountain’s words had barely settled when a deep voice came through.

Lu Lin glanced at the screen and noted that the bidder was a man wearing a mask, seated in a booth.

He could only see the man’s image; the Sound and Image Stone in the room blocks Soul Power detection, and this blocking effect is two-way.

People in booths outside can’t probe the room’s situation, and Lu Lin naturally can’t explore the man’s information either.

"Alright, a master at seat number seventy-nine bids Eight Million."

"Ten Million."

Yet another person below offered a bid.

With the two engaging in a bidding war, the atmosphere at the Reward Treasure Conference heated up.

Lu Lin wasn’t interested in this auction item; the key is that he doesn’t know the Nether Sea, nor the Nether Sea Dragon Palace.

"Friend Lu, the Nether Sea is indeed a great place. It is within the Qingqiu Mountain range, formed after a legend’s strong person, exceeding the Star Emperor Realm, passed away."

"The Nether Sea contains terrifying forces that can erode a martial artist’s Soul Power and flesh. Many martial artists with insufficient ability enter it and are instantly vanished without a trace, lost on the spot."
