Chapter Twenty-three

After studying for a long time, Henghua finally stretched out his hand to tear off the water plants wrapped around the outside, and pulled out a little powder from the surface of the black substance.

The big man almost made a move, but he resisted the urge and stared at Henghua's movements.

Money, maybe these black powders are money! No, I need to put these things away in a while, and I can't let him hide them secretly.

Henghua studied it carefully for a while, then smelled it in front of his nose, and his eyes immediately changed.

"Hey - who am I?

"Isn't it just a cuttlefish bone? It was entangled several times with water plants and soaked in the thick ink accumulated in the cavity for hundreds of years. Therefore, the root cause cannot be seen at all.

"You take it, soak it in pure water, and refine it with true energy under the moonlight for seven days. It should reveal its true form. This thing is a bone of a water demon in the foundation-building period, which has been heated for about three to five hundred years. At most, cuttlefish bones are rare.

Yes, you can buy it for a price, about twenty moon beads.

"Of course, if you are selling it as medicinal materials, the processed jellyfish may be more expensive. This thing should have floated over from the waters of the East China Sea."

Sea octopus can stop bleeding and astringent essence, and can relieve pain. In the elixir category, it is often used to make secret medicines such as "Jiegu Powder", "Tangtong Powder" and "Huanjing Dan".

Seeing that his hands were all black, Henghua looked disgusted and quickly got some clean water to wash his hands.

"Hai—sea octopus?" The big man rushed over and said angrily, "Are you admitting your mistake?"

This, how could this be a cuttlefish bone?

"If you don't believe it, ask someone else to identify it."

Heng Hua was filled with disgust. He thought he had just come out of the Spirit Island and was destined to be lucky, so he would meet some kind of fairy fate on the first day. The result was a jellyfish stained with ink.

"As for the third item from fellow Taoist, you don't need to look carefully. It's just a broken jade seal, nothing unusual."

According to Henghua's judgment, this jade medal was broken and fell into the water decades ago. It was not until a few days ago that it was picked up by a man.

It is also a useless thing.

"If you doubt my appraisal and think there is another mystery to this thing, you might as well ask an expert to take a look."

The big man did not believe in evil, so he put away his three treasures and turned around to leave. He did not continue to set up the stall, but directly collected everything and left.

snort--

What kind of look, the Fu family is just hypocrisy, trying to suppress my treasures to lower the price.

Seeing him leave angrily, Henghua shook his head and recorded the incident in his record.

Nie Xing saw the young man's expression on the side and advised him kindly: "Fellow Taoist, there is no need to worry. There are often people like this who always think that when they come across some weird things, they must be some thousand-year-old spiritual treasures or tens-of-thousand-year-old artifacts. Don't

If you care, you will understand if you hit the wall a few times."

Meeting an immortal is a legend in monk trading. Even in thousands or even tens of thousands of transactions, you may not be able to encounter a rare treasure from an immortal.

"Thank you Taoist friend for your kindness. I understand. But - I'm worried that he will foolishly go to other places and meet the Wei family or the Cheng family. If they bump into each other, and this Taoist friend shows off like 'I have a treasure', I'm afraid.

Not only was he beaten to death, but these useless things were also snatched away as treasures by the Wei family or the Cheng family."

Nie Xing was startled and lowered his head to think about it.

Don't tell me, this is really possible.

At this time, Henghua and Nie Xing looked up.

He shot a spiritual wind toward the wind and secretly warned the man to be careful of the Wei family and Cheng family, and it was best to go to Fengmen Island to find someone to identify them.

Fengmen Island is one of the largest islands in the east, and the Ling City on it is the largest in the east. At the same time, there are several Jindan monks stationed on the island.

"Fellow Taoist has a good personality and doesn't care about this fool's rudeness."

When Nie Xing saw it, he even sighed at the tutoring of the Fu family. Sure enough, what the master said was true. The descendants of Mr. Fu Danwei of Panlong Island are indeed good gentlemen.

Henghua was speechless when he saw it. His third brother had such a good temper? Why did he rush to warn him? He had been out and about for so many years, but he hadn't been tricked by anyone?



Lu Xin saw the movement here in the dark and ordered: "Go and see what the origins of the things in this big man's hands are."

Qingxi went down to make arrangements and soon brought the results.

"A piece of sea octopus, a ghost snake egg and a piece of treasure scraps."

"So, as this Fu family member said?"

Qingxi: "Exactly. Young Master, the Fu family has always given fair prices and will never cheat on these things."

"The price is fair? The Fu family is also a cultivating family. I don't believe it, they would really do such a harm to my family. It's just that they haven't met the real treasure.

"If you come across a treasure, you will disparage it in the name of appreciating the treasure, so as to buy something that others don't know at a low price. Isn't this what Third Uncle often does?"

Lu Xin shook the folding fan in his hand. The originally shining folding fan was covered with a layer of dust, and its brilliance dimmed.

With a gentle blow, several gaps appeared in the folding fan, which looked like it was in pieces.

"Qingxi, take this fan to the Fu family and see how much they are willing to pay for it."

"..."

Qingxi looked hesitant, but couldn't bear Lu Xin's urging, so he had to go to Henghua to taste it with the "broken fan".

When he left Lu Xin's side, his hidden whereabouts were immediately exposed.

The gentle breeze conveyed his whereabouts to Xiang Feng and Henghua.

Is there anyone else on the island?

Xiang Feng stared at Qing Xi as he walked over, secretly raising his guard.

Could it be that he is the mysterious man who just dealt with the Wei family?

Henghua looked at Qingxi and followed his path to where Lu Xin and others were.

But Lu Xin was carrying a secret treasure, and the two of them were hiding. Henghua looked from a distance and saw only an empty reef.

Qingxi saw the young man staring at him sometimes, sometimes looking behind him, and playing drums secretly.

"Young Master, I have a treasure, can you help me identify it?"

With that said, he handed the dusty, garbage-like folding fan to Henghua.



"Senior brother, this thing looks like a broken fan, right?"

Liu Xu put away the stall goods and walked to Nie Xing's side.

Nie Xing secretly scanned with his spiritual consciousness, nodded and said: "It's true that I can't see the doorway. I guess it's the remains of a magic weapon? It's just-"

Nie Xing vaguely felt something was wrong.

This broken fan is a little different from the remains of ordinary treasures. Could it be... could it be fragments of a spiritual weapon?

Everyone was doing about the same business, and now they were bored, so they gathered around Henghua.

Henghua concentrated on it, staring at the broken fan for a long time, looking at Qingxi, and then looking at the direction where Lu Xin and the two were hiding.

Lu Xin smiled slightly. He raised his hand and was about to shake the folding fan when he suddenly remembered that the folding fan was gone.

He made a fist with his right hand and put it silently beside him. He coughed lightly and said, "Master Nanguo, what do you think?"

Nan Guo Yannian said: "If you cover up the spiritual light of Lingyun Fan, the spiritual object will be obscured. Logically speaking, ordinary people cannot find it. But this guy has good eyesight and has an excellent identification method, so he will definitely notice it. I just don't know him.

Will it be made clear?"

After all, this is an undamaged spiritual weapon.

Not to mention the Fu family, even in the entire Yanlong Water Area, most of the spiritual weapons are in the hands of Jindan monks.

Lu Xin nodded silently. He believed that with Fu Henghua's eyesight, he could definitely see the truth.

In the end, will he pretend to be the remains of a magic weapon and then buy it at a low price?



Henghua stared at the Lingyun Fan in front of him.

With his eyesight, he could naturally see the hidden truth of this fan.

Seeing Qingxi coming with a magical folding fan, Henghua murmured in his heart.

He drove Xin Yuan back to his room to divine another hexagram.

"Little brother, have you seen the result?" Qingxi couldn't help but urge when he saw Henghua was silent for a long time.

Henghua glanced in the distance in the direction of Lu Xin and others.

Although he couldn't see through the traces of the two of them, he could vaguely guess that someone was trying to make things difficult for him.

If so, teach them a lesson.

“Have you ever heard of ‘black weapon’, fellow Taoist?”

Qingxi shook his head: "No."

"Black weapon?" Ume Nakata asked curiously, "I know how to divide magic weapons into four categories: treasure, spirit, and immortal. What are black weapons?"

The other monks around shook their heads.

They also only know these four types of magic weapons. The magic weapon condenses twelve forbidden laws. When the thirteenth forbidden law is formed, it is automatically promoted to a treasure weapon. When the twenty-fifth forbidden law is formed, the treasure weapon is automatically upgraded to a spiritual weapon.

The thirty-seventh forbidden method is formed, and it is an immortal weapon.

The path to promotion to the fourth level of magic weapon is clear. What is the black weapon?

"Black weapons are not illegal treasures, but a collective name for a type of evil magic weapons. I have seen them in ancient books.

"According to legend, when Donglaiwan Island was still a Chinese state, there was an 'Evil Soul Cult' in the world of cultivation. Its leader used evil magic to control the monks of the major immortal sects and families, causing a bloody storm. And its reliance was a famous

A magic weapon called 'Amohei Zimu Yin Yang Monument'.

"The origin of the sacred stele is inexplicable, and it seems to be a natural thing. Taoist Xiehun cut the stele and made small black seals. These small seals were then passed off as magic weapons left by the predecessors and scattered in the monk's cave.

"After the monks explore the cave and obtain these small seals for sacrifice, a trace of divine consciousness will follow the induction and automatically mark the true name on the stone tablet."

As Henghua narrated, Nie Xing and others were shocked.

Although they have never heard of "black weapons", they can always understand it through common sense.

If the true name of the divine consciousness appears on someone else's magic weapon, doesn't that mean life and death are controlled by others?

Lu Xin looked at Nanguo Yannian: "Master, have you ever heard of such evil things?"

Nanguo Yannian said: "It is true. In the Shenzhou era, various sects' classics had warnings. But after the continent was overthrown, the inheritance was scattered, and there are not many people who know this ancient past. Unexpectedly..."

Heng Hua: "It is recorded in the book that the Evil Soul Taoist relied on this sorcery to trick many monks, treating them as slave puppets, and attacking the monks' mountain gates everywhere. In the end, they were jointly surrounded and suppressed by the powerful forces of Donglai Shenzhou."

Qingxi asked back: "Fellow Taoist, you think I am a black weapon? But this is not a stone seal, and the material has nothing to do with stone."

"Black weapons are just a general term for a category. In addition to the original black weapon, the 'Mother and Child Yin and Yang Divine Monument', there are also the Six Desire Beads of the Heavenly Demon, the Great Formless Divine Flag, and——

"Evil Heart Demon Soul Flag."

Liu Xu suddenly interrupted.

"That's right. Old Man Bliss's Evil Heart Demonic Soul Flag is also one of them."

Everyone present was a monk from Yanlong Watershed. Except for Meizhongtian, who was just starting out, including Qingxi, everyone looked solemn, and the atmosphere suddenly changed.

Qingxi: "What do you mean, fellow Taoist, that this magic weapon of mine is a 'black weapon' and should be destroyed as soon as possible?"

He was a little anxious and a little disappointed.

Have the Fu family fallen so low as to deceive others about their magic weapon? I don’t believe it. You can’t see that this is a serious magic weapon.

Henghua nodded, then shook his head: "Do you know, fellow Taoist, that besides the 'black weapons', there is also a type of 'white weapons' in the spiritual world?"

"What is that?" Ume Nakata asked again.

A magic weapon is a magic weapon, how can it have so many messy names?

"The black weapon uses the magic weapon as a trap to trick the monks into handing over their real names and souls. The white weapon is the soul of the predecessor hidden in the magic weapon, and is used to seize the body when the monks of the younger generations are to sacrifice it."

"In addition to these two, there is also a type of 'gray weapon'. When monks refining magic weapons, the true energy left by their predecessors infects their own magic power, causing them to become possessed or mutate. I once heard of an example. There was a monk

He got the flying sword left by his predecessors. After he sacrificed it, the alien magic power in the flying sword corroded his whole body, and octopus tentacles grew out of his body."

Except for "black weapon", the other two categories were names made up by Henghua on the spot. But those examples cannot be faked.

It is true that there are magic weapons that hide the souls of predecessors and are designed to seize the lives of future generations. There are also magic weapons that go wrong during their production, which will have an impact on the holder.

And he deliberately mentioned the Eight Treasures Chapter Divine Sword, which was also intentional.

When Qingxi heard this name, his expression changed.

"Eight Treasure Chapter Divine Sword?" Nie Xing raised his eyebrows and said, "What fellow Taoist is referring to is the joke that made a big fuss three hundred years ago?"

The Eight Treasure Chapter Divine Sword was forged by the sword immortal thousands of years ago.

Three hundred years ago, a monk obtained this set of flying swords in the cave of his ancestors. He was so happy that he did not check it and directly used his blood to refine it. Only later did he discover that the Zhang Shen Sword contained a demonic seed.

The essence of this set of flying swords is to allow the octopus tentacles to take root in one's body, thereby using the eight flying swords to defeat the enemy.

Although it has great power, it will slowly transform into a half-human, half-demon monster over time.

However, it was too late. The monk who had made the flying sword could not turn around and had become a slave to the flying sword. Eight octopus tentacles sprouted from his back, and even his sanity began to blur.

"Yes, it's the Eight Treasure Chapter Divine Sword. That set of flying swords is still in my house."

Henghua smiled and said: "Three hundred years ago, the monk was controlled by the octopus tentacles and became crazy and became a demon. It was my family who surrendered and put away the flying sword, so that the monk could recover."

"Fellow Taoist, why are you bringing up those old stories when discussing this magic weapon of mine?" Qingxi said impatiently, "Fellow Taoist, after talking so much, what does it have to do with my folding fan? Just tell me, what exactly is this folding fan?

What level of magic weapon is it? Can it be used?"

"I am warning fellow Taoists that the fairy treasure obtained by chance may not be a good thing, but a life-threatening disaster. This magical treasure of yours has a restrained spiritual energy and looks dilapidated, but in fact it is an intact spiritual weapon.

"But this spiritual weapon exudes a special sense of consciousness, and it obviously already has an owner.

"If a fellow Taoist is foolish enough to perform sacrifices, he may have his soul taken away and become someone else's puppet. He may also be taken away by the remaining soul of a senior master. It is even more likely that the alien essence contained in the folding fan will contaminate his own magic power."

It's good to have octopus tentacles growing out.

Henghua had seen a certain case in an ancient book. A male cultivator obtained the Purple Cloud Heavenly Clothes in an ancient immortal cave. He wore it with joy. Although he had immortal weapon-level defense, the celestial clothes contained yin attributes.

The immortal essence directly reversed his gender and turned him into a female cultivator.

"Black weapons, white weapons, gray weapons. There are many ways to set traps in magic weapons and harm fellow practitioners. If possible, try not to use magic weapons made by outsiders, especially those with unknown origins."

No one wants to sacrifice and refine a magic weapon from their predecessors, only to end up refining it and become someone else's puppet, serving as a treasure slave.

"Of course, this does not mean that all the magic weapons of the past cannot be used. If those black and white weapons can be carefully inspected and purified properly, they can still be used."

Henghua didn't know when a feather fan appeared in his hand, and the temperature around him rose little by little.

"This magic weapon, Fellow Taoist, should be a spiritual weapon refined by someone, and was specially sent to Fellow Daoist as a trap. In this case, I will do Fellow Daoist a favor and purify the divine consciousness inside for free."

The flames lit up, and Henghua activated the "Xuanhuo Bird Feather Fan".

Nanming Lihuo ignited the air and surrounded Lingyun Fan.
