A week after returning from Majia Town, Xue Chen lived in seclusion. Basically, he spent every day alone in his study to chop up information about spiritual weapons. Apart from going to the Baiyun Mountains to absorb spiritual energy through Koutianmen every two days, he basically
All the energy is put on it.
But even so, he only read an amount equivalent to one-tenth of all the information. It would take a long time to read them all.
This made him sigh with emotion about the accumulation of a cultivation inheritance. These are all materials left by generations, and they are only related to spiritual weapons. It is really amazing. This is also the terrifying thing about a cultivation inheritance. The accumulation of generations can make
The inheritors have benefited endlessly.
Most of what he read was about materials for making spiritual weapons. It could be said that it was an eye-opener. The various strange and weird things recorded on it were something he had never heard of or seen before.
Overall, he had a relatively clear understanding of the materials for refining spiritual weapons. Generally speaking, they were divided into two categories, one was special natural resources, and the other was the corpses of monsters.
The former refers to various extremely rare resources that exist in nature, such as the thunder-split pine wood core used by Lei Yang Ruyi in Qi Yunshan's hands, and the meteorite iron used by the Bai family's fake iron man in Yulong Cave.
And these two are just two of thousands of species. In addition, there are so many things that Xue Chen was a little confused when he saw them, which made him a little doubtful. Do these things really exist in nature? For example, tens of thousands of tons.
A piece of iron mother can only be found in iron ore, as well as fine gold, which is very rare in gold mines, and a certain kind of spar buried deep in the ground called phantom crystal...
Then there are the corpses of various spirits. Unlike the former, the latter is much smaller. To put it simply, the corpses of many spirits in the world can be regarded as treasures. Their muscles, bones, fur, body elixirs, etc. can all be used as treasures.
An important material for refining spiritual weapons, even flesh and blood can be used to refine elixirs.
"No wonder it's rare to hear of spirits appearing anywhere. With such a high value, I'm afraid they were hunted and killed."
Xue Chen sighed in his heart and felt that he was really lucky. He met the centipede spirit by chance and successfully killed it. In exchange for such rich information, there was also a spiritual weapon: the Four Symbols.
bell.
After returning from Majia Town, he tested the newly acquired four-elephant bell deep in the Baiyun Mountains, and the power displayed really surprised him.
Feng Lin Huo Shan, each represents a spell, and the wind blades inspired swept across, not only cutting off a large tree as thick as an arm, but several rocks behind it also shattered like tofu.
The cut surface is as smooth as a mirror.
The wooden prison that represents "forest" is equally sharp. When the word "forest" is sounded, a wooden prison will break through the ground and rise up, trapping the enemy in it.
Rang walked up and personally tested the firmness of the wooden prison. It took him five points of strength after transforming into a dragon to defeat it with one punch, and he could barely cut through it with the Qingfeng Blade technique from Xiaozhou Mountain.
This is already very rare. As long as you are facing an enemy at the crystal level, it is enough to at least make the opponent unable to move for a short period of one or two seconds.
Naturally, the fire python and mountain shield spells that represent "volcanoes" are also good. Once the fire python comes out, everything within a radius of five feet becomes like an oven. The earth becomes scorched black, and the grass and trees burst into flames, creating a prairie fire.
potential.
The mountain shield is similar to the Earth Mother's protection of the Bai family in Yulong Cave. A tall dark black shield stands in front of it, with a natural map of mountains on the front, exuding an unshakable and heavy momentum.
What's even more mysterious is that using this four-image bell does not require much spiritual energy, just slightly more than when using Lingjian. Moreover, after using it, it will automatically and slowly absorb the spiritual energy for next use.
, this also means that this four-elephant bell is equivalent to four top spiritual-level spiritual slips that can be recycled! It deserves to be evaluated as a top spiritual-level spiritual weapon!
More than once, he held the two four-elephant bells in his hands and compared them. They were really almost the same, except for the one in the soil with spots of rust stains. Other than that, they were completely identical in size and format.
the same.
"They are also four-image bells. Why does one consume very little spiritual energy when used, while the other consumes less than half of the spiritual energy in my body every time it is used?"
Xue Chen was puzzled, and finally thought of a possibility: Could the one dug out of the soil be broken?
Judging from the "Fenglin Huoshan" Four Elephants Bell, it can independently and slowly absorb spiritual energy and store it in it. When using it, practitioners do not need to consume a lot of spiritual energy, which is very good.
But the four-elephant bell of the "Jingjing Jingjing" did not have this function. Thinking of the land on Yueyapo that was infected by spiritual energy, and the centipede that turned into a spirit, he guessed that its function of storing spiritual energy was broken.
It fell off, so it was sucked and leaked at the same time, causing the earth to overflow with spiritual energy, and the centipede also became a spirit.
When something is broken, it needs to be repaired.
He had an idea in his mind and repaired the damaged Four Elephant Bell!
"Among the materials produced by the Ma clan, there are introductions to the materials of spiritual weapons, and descriptions of many rare spiritual weapons in the world. There are also procedures for refining spiritual weapons. There must also be information on how to repair a spiritual weapon."
While Xue Chen was tirelessly researching all the knowledge about spiritual weapons, Xia Yike also came here in person in order to see with his own eyes the authentic works of the calligrapher and the painter.
After the two had a phone call last time, Xia Yike immediately started preparations. Although these two national treasures would not be auctioned, they might as well use them as a publicity point and a commercial activity.
Success requires traffic, which means more attention.
After witnessing it with his own eyes and receiving assurance from Xue Chen, Yunteng Auction Company immediately put out various promotional advertisements that had been prepared. On many website forums related to culture and antiques, the words were concise and direct: the authentic calligraphy work of Wang Xizhi, the calligraphy sage.
The Chuyue Tie and the authentic painting Qinglin Tu left by the painting sage Wu Daozi will be on display at the Yunteng Autumn and Winter Painting and Calligraphy Auction. People from all walks of life are welcome to come and appreciate it.
Unsurprisingly, on the day the advertisement was released, the news exploded and spread. Basically, all it received was sneers and doubts, and even some people denounced it on relevant forums: "For the sake of
To promote the auction, you really don’t even care about integrity, it’s simply a shameless act.”
There are no authentic works of Wang Xizhi left in the world. This is almost a widely known conclusion. Now that someone has put out the authentic works on display, nine out of ten people do not believe it and only think it is a hype.
However, some people who stand at the top of the antique culture pyramid know that Yunteng Auction has a relationship with Xue Chen. For example, Mr. Zhuge Yi from the capital first made a phone call with Xue Chen and took the nearest bus that night.
The plane arrived in Haicheng City.
After arriving at Xue Chen's home, he spent almost two hours using traditional techniques and modern instruments for identification many times. When it was finally confirmed that what he saw in front of him was indeed the authentic work of the calligrapher and the painter, Mr. Zhuge was almost excited.
Leave tears.
"I didn't expect that Mr. Youjun's original work still exists in the world. It is really a blessing for our generation."
Zhuge Yi looked at the two paintings and calligraphy, and the look and expression on his face were as close as seeing his own grandson. He didn't even blink and wished he could sleep with his arms in his arms at night.
More and more people who knew the news arrived, including some people in the Haicheng antique circle and members of the Provincial Collection Association. The trend of the whole matter began to reverse. It was no longer a rumor. In the affirmative voices of many authoritative people
It has become an undoubted fact.
For a time, Haicheng City seemed to have become the center of an invisible whirlpool, attracting people from all over the country who wanted to admire the two national treasures.
Xue Chen also promptly asked Xia Yike to take away these two collections. Otherwise, he would spend a lot of time entertaining visitors every day.
Seeing that Xia Yike had safely hired a well-armed escort company to transport it, Xue Chen still said a little worriedly: "I've given the things to you, but you must take security measures."
Xia Yike replied calmly: "Don't worry, if something goes wrong in my hands, I will lose everything and I will compensate you."
"Compensate?" Xue Chen muttered in her heart. She definitely couldn't afford the compensation, but Xia Chenghong, as the director of Ning Group, should be able to afford the compensation. "How can Director Xia have assets of three to four billion? It should be almost enough to compensate.
.”
Theoretically, treasures of this level have no value, and there are no relevant auction records. However, it can be estimated from other similar works. According to domestic and foreign auction history, the highest auction price for calligraphy and painting works is around one billion yuan, which is no more than 1 billion yuan.
There is no doubt that the value of these two pieces will only be higher.
"Then you have to be careful. If it is lost, I'm afraid Director Xia's pension money will have to be used to compensate." Xue Chen joked with a smile.
Xia Yike glanced at it: "One person does the work and the other takes responsibility. If something goes wrong, I won't implicate my father. I will be responsible alone."
"Are you responsible? How can you be responsible?" Xue Chen smiled and joked, "It's not that I underestimated you and sold you. I'm afraid I won't be able to compensate you enough."
"Haha, you are looking down on me. I can't afford to pay for it for a while, but I don't think I can afford to pay for all the value I have created in my life." Xia Yike's light blue eyes shone with the confidence that only women can have.
Xue Chen touched his nose: "If that's the case, that's possible, but doesn't that mean you have to work for me for the rest of your life?" It's quite interesting to think about it this way.
"Daydreaming." After speaking these four words lightly, Xia Yike walked away to check how the transportation preparations were going. (To be continued)
