Hong Yuan had grown up in the Ten Thousand Devil Sect. His condition was naturally better than here, so he wasn't used to it.

Ning Luo saw that he really couldn't stay there any longer, so she asked him to go out and search for a tavern to see if there were any better taverns. She casually bought the cultivation materials that Elder Xue Tian had given her.

Since the Yihong trading company was holding an auction in Phoenix City, it naturally attracted a lot of vendors. These vendors did not have much good stuff, unlike a large power like the Yihong trading company. However, there were still some basic goods.

While Hong Yuan was out, Ning Luo cultivated alone in her room.

On the day of the monthly competition, sparring with Gu Tian Chun and the others was extremely beneficial for his cultivation, especially regarding his comprehension of Dao arts.

Although Gu Tianchun and the rest had yet to succeed in comprehending the Dao, they had already attempted to do so more than once over the years.

Therefore, in terms of spells, they were still enlightening Ning Luo.

He carefully recalled every single detail of his battle with them, slowly deliberating over it before quietly comprehending it.

Soon, Ning Luo entered a mysterious state.

This was the state in which a cultivator would comprehend a Tao technique.

In the final battle, Gu Tian Chun should have been able to win. If he had not been indecisive and had not killed decisively, the loser would have been him.

And the reason he could win was precisely because of his decisiveness in killing.

From the beginning till the end, he had never thought of any other possibilities. For example, if Gu Tianchun dodged to the left, what would he do?

This might be a type of Tao technique?

With that thought in mind, Ning Luo abruptly opened his eyes, seeming to come to a realization.

That's right, the Dao should be like this!

There were tens of thousands of Tao techniques. It was sufficient to only take one.

The reason why Gu Tian Chun and the rest failed to comprehend the Dao countless times was probably because they were greedy for more and lost. With so many Tao techniques, how could they comprehend a Tao technique that could contain all the devils in the world?

Thinking like this, Ning Luo started to comprehend the Dao once again.

Time slowly passed. After an unknown amount of time, Ning Luo suddenly jumped up from the bed. With the Divine Firmament Halberd in hand, she suddenly opened her eyes. As her eyes fell, the Divine Firmament Halberd also fell.

Bang!

The table in front of him let out a crisp sound. The table in front of him shattered, but before it could collapse, it turned into a pile of sawdust and fell to the ground.

Ning Luo's face was filled with joy as he looked at the pile of sawdust in front of him.

He had succeeded in comprehending the Dao!

"Although this is just the entrance to the Dao Arts, its power is not weak. Compared to high grade techniques, it should not be inferior at all!"

The comprehension of Tao techniques is usually divided into four stages, namely, the initiation of Tao techniques, the initial mastery of Tao techniques, the peak of Tao techniques, and the mastery of Tao techniques.

At this time, Ning Luo's Tao technique had just reached its first level. He was still a long way away from completing his Tao technique.

However, this was enough for him to be excited. After all, he was only at the early stage of the Dharma realm.

"Haha, I succeeded in comprehending the Dao!"

Ning Luo couldn't wait to return to the sect and tell Master the good news.

Ning Luo naturally had to share such a great matter with Little Meng and little Jinpeng. One person and two beasts were jumping around the room in joy and elation.

After so many days, the little gold peng had grown a bit more, and his wings became even larger and more powerful.

Little Meng was still her usual self. She craved sleep and love, but ignored the little gold peng, seeming to be dissatisfied that the little gold peng was able to fly, but she was unable to.

Hong Yuan pushed open the door and couldn't help but be startled when he saw Little Meng and Little Gold.

"Junior brother Ning Luo, where did you buy these little foxes and birds?"

Ning Luo had warned Xiao Meng not to speak in front of others, so he had no choice but to explain.

He lovingly stroked Xiao Meng's head and slowly replied, "I didn't buy them. They are my friends. They have always been by my side."

The little gold peng didn't recognize Hong Yuan. His little mouth slightly opened, and just as he was about to spew fire, he heard Ning Luo and Hong Yuan's tone and immediately gave up.

Hong Yuan had come into contact with some demon beasts before. However, with his experience, he was unable to see through the little gold peng's background. His gaze was mostly focused on Little Meng's seven-colored tail.

Ning Luo saw the confusion in Hong Yuan's words, but didn't bother to explain. Instead, she asked, "Senior brother Hong Yuan, how is it? Have you found a better inn?"

Hong Yuan shook his head and pulled a chair with his head.

Even the ones with worse conditions didn't have rooms, much less those with better conditions.

This auction of the Yihong trading company was extremely grand. It had almost attracted the people from the eight super powers. On the way out, Hong Yuan encountered many people from other forces.

The disciples of the other forces were mostly wearing clothes with an obvious symbol on them, which could be distinguished from afar.

"Senior brother Hong Yuan, are you planning to obtain some things from the auction?"

With regards to this, Elder Xue Tian didn't say much, and Ning Luo wasn't sure. Whether Elder Xue Tian would hand over the mission to Hong Yuan after sending him down the mountain.

If it was just cultivation materials, then it wouldn't be a problem. In any case, Phoenix City would be bustling with activity in the next few days, so it wouldn't be difficult to find all of them.

However, if Elder Xue Tian wanted Hong Yuan to do something at the auction, it would be troublesome.

This auction had gathered all sorts of forces. It was a chaotic auction, and once people made a move, it would easily become a public target.

Of course, the auction was for people with high prices, no one dared to break the rules.

He was afraid that after leaving the auction, he would have to worry about how to safely return to the sect.

"Yes, I want to see if there are any suitable magic tools."

Ning Luo nodded. She didn't say anything else, so she could only take things one step at a time.

Perhaps in the auction, he would take a fancy to some things and be unable to resist. After all, this kind of opportunity could only be found by chance and not sought.

"Let's just settle down for now. We won't be staying for long anyways. It'll only be for a couple of days."

Ning Luo indicated to Hong Yuan that there was no need to be too picky about the room's conditions. After all, this wasn't the Ten Thousand Devil Sect, so having a place to stay was pretty good.

The food in the tavern was rather delicious, causing Hong Yuan to change his opinion slightly. After eating his fill and drinking to his heart's content, Hong Yuan relied on his drunkenness to return to his room and sleep until daybreak.

The next day, when the sun had just risen, Phoenix City was bustling with noise and excitement.

Today was the day of Phoenix City's auction.

The auction was held in Phoenix City's large auction house that had a long history. This auction house could hold over a thousand people.

However, not everyone could enter the auction house.

The auction house was different from the market. Without a certain level of purchasing ability, the auction house would not allow one to enter.

Of course, there were also exceptions. These were people from the eight great powers.

People from the eight super powers didn't need to be appraised. They only needed to show their relevant documents and prove that they were from the eight super powers.

Generally speaking, disciples of the eight great powers, who were above the inner sect level, could freely enter the arena.
