Before long, Wei Suo and the female cultivator arrived at the entrance of the Ancient a.s.sembling Pavilion.
Just like the time when Lu Dexiu brought the two of them here, there weren't any employees receiving them at the entrance of the Gym, making it seem very cold and cheerless.
"Ding ling." After Wei Suo and the female cultivator entered the hall, a crisp golden ringtone came from inside. Following which, a female cultivator wearing a pale-green palace dress walked out from behind a screen.
This female cultivator looked to be around thirty years of age. Her soft b.r.e.a.s.t.s were tall and straight, and her appearance was also extremely gorgeous. Her eyes roamed around, carrying a trace of the alluring charm of a mature woman.
"Fellow Daoists, why have you come to our Ancient Pavilion? Do you have any unknown ancient treasures that you need to appraise?" After sizing up the two of them, this gorgeous woman smiled at Wei Suo and the female cultivator, and went straight to the point.
"That's right, there is indeed an ancient treasure that I need your Xuan to appraise." Wei Suo nodded without making a sound.
"Oh? I wonder if the ancient treasure in your friend's hands is broken or undamaged? " The gorgeous woman dressed in a light green palace dress continued to ask with a smile.
Wei Suo's eyebrows jumped slightly. He asked in confusion, "What, are there any differences between broken weapons and intact ones?"
"Most of the runes and arrays on the broken weapon are already broken, making judgement and probing is a bit difficult. Some might have unfathomable dangers. Our shopkeeper has been rather busy lately, so if it's fragments, we'll have to wait for at least ten days before we do it again." The gorgeous woman explained unhurriedly: "If it's an intact ancient treasure, the difficulty would be a bit higher. I can immediately appraise it."
"So that's how it is." Wei Suo nodded, "The ancient treasure in my hand isn't a broken weapon, it's completely undamaged."
"Then there won't be a problem. However, we should first explain the rules of the ancient Xuan." The gorgeous woman nodded with a smile and said, "If you are unable to appraise it, then you won't charge a single spirit stone. But, as long as you can appraise it, the appraising fee will be at least a thousand low-rank spirit stones. In other words, even if the ancient treasures were not even spirit rank and were useless, they would still have to pay a thousand low-rank soul stones. This was because regardless of the grade, testing the array formation was very complicated. In addition, if an ancient treasure surpa.s.sed the spirit rank and reached the top rank of the Dao rank, it would require a tenth of the appraisal fee depending on the value of the ancient treasure. That is to say, even if this Ancient Treasure is a priceless Mysterious rank Magic Treasure, it would at most only be able to charge ten thousand low-rank soul stones. "
"Okay, no problem." Wei Suo nodded.
Seeing that Wei Suo agreed as usual, a trace of astonishment flashed across the eyes of the gorgeous woman. After all, ten thousand low grade spirit stones wasn't a small number, and Wei Suo's current appearance was only that of a cultivator at the first level of remembrance. Moreover, the female cultivator's current disguise was also very ordinary.
"Since there is no problem with the fees, there is still one last thing to be said. When we collect the ancient treasures, you guys must also be at the side. " A trace of astonishment flashed across the gorgeous woman's eyes before she looked at Wei Suo and the female cultivator and added.
"Oh? "What is the reason for this?" Wei Suo was puzzled once again.
"It's like this." The gorgeous woman laughed and said: "There are some ancient treasures that have astonis.h.i.+ng effects and power, and some ancient treasures that might even have many unique mysteries. The shopkeeper himself is fond of studying ancient treasures, and according to him, they are the best of the best, so he could not help but be greedy. Therefore, it's better if the owner of the ancient treasure is by his side. Otherwise, if he couldn't resist the urge to steal it, or exchange it for a fake ancient treasure, it might bring about a calamity. "
"Looks like you, the manager of the Ghastly Grand Pavilion, is an extraordinary person." Wei Suo and the female cultivator couldn't help but look at each other.
"Our shopkeeper only knows his own ident.i.ty. He said that if he's a cultivator of the Divine Profound Realm, then he might have to steal one from each person he sees." After saying that with a smile, the gorgeous woman gestured towards Wei Suo and the female cultivator, inviting them to enter.
After pa.s.sing through the screen, the gorgeous woman brought Wei Suo and the female cultivator into a room at the back. In this room, there was another world. There was a 20 foot long and wide tunnel leading to the underground.
After walking down the pa.s.sageway for about a hundred feet, the view suddenly became bright and a great underground hall appeared in front of them.
The entire underground hall was roughly five to six hundred meters in length. Many different colored crystal pillars stood erect inside, and many places on the ground were engraved with formations and embedded with crystals.
On the left side of the hall, there were a few jade chairs and a long table.
At this moment, beside the long table, there was an old man with a solemn expression and an old-fas.h.i.+oned face.
The old man's hair was mostly gray, and his expression was similar to Wei Suo's from before. He was actually a little waxy yellow. With a sweep of Wei Suo w.a.n.g's Qi Technique, the old man's cultivation level was not considered low, and he was also at the fifth level of the Fragmentation Realm.
When the gorgeous woman brought Wei Suo and the female cultivator down, this old man was in the middle of studying something with great concentration, as if it were also an ancient treasure.
"Manager Wen, these two dao friends have a perfect ancient treasure that they want you to help them appraise."
"Alright, I understand."
After hearing the gorgeous female cultivator's words, the old man unhurriedly swept his eyes over Wei Suo and the female cultivator. With his usual prideful expression, he put away the things in his hands and asked, "What ancient treasures do you have?"
"This is it." Wei Suo didn't waste time speaking. With a flash of red light from his hand, he took out the red circular mirror that he had obtained from the Green City Ruins.
"This is?" With just a single glance, the originally unhurried old man's eyes lit up. With a flash, he arrived in front of Wei Suo.
"Fellow daoist, now that you've let me inspect this item, there shouldn't be any problems, right?" Immediately after, this old-fas.h.i.+oned looking old man was clearly more courteous towards Wei Suo.
"Of course there's no problem with that." Wei Suo smiled slightly and handed the red circular mirror over to the old man.
"It really is Flaming Jade." Just by turning the circular mirror over and over again, the old man immediately let out a happy voice.
"I was able to tell that it was Flamedoor at first glance, so my eyesight isn't bad." The green-robed elder's voice sounded in Wei Suo's ears.
"This thing is a real ancient treasure, and it's actually completely undamaged. So undamaged, this thing is from …" The old man looked at the nine strange symbols on the back of the red circular mirror and then looked at the smooth and unscratched surface of the thing. He couldn't help but exclaim in admiration. Initially, he couldn't help but ask where Wei Suo got this thing from. However, he immediately realized that this matter had nothing to do with him and immediately stopped.
"Judging from the materials and the runes, this should be a fire-attribute ancient treasure." The old man looked at it for a while more carefully, then raised his head and said to Wei Suo and the female cultivator, "What exactly is the effect? I'll start to probe."
"Please feel free, Manager Wen." Wei Suo nodded without making a sound.
"Rise!"
The old man reached out his hand and a beam of true essence shot out. It shot into a red crystal column at the side. Immediately, a few thin red crystals around the red crystal pillar began to emit a red light, which then formed into a red ball of light.
An extremely serious expression appeared on the old man's face. The red mirror flew out from his hand and floated in the center of the red ball of light.
Another pillar of azure light shot out from the formation below, s.h.i.+ning on the red mirror.
Very quickly, countless light symbols appeared on the red mirror, densely floating within the red ball of light.
These light talismans were incomparably simple and unadorned. Moreover, they were all completely different from the current talismans.
The old man's eyes flashed intensely as he continuously distinguished the flas.h.i.+ng light talismans.
After approximately two incense sticks of time had pa.s.sed, the old man's brows jumped. He stretched out his hand and stimulated another formation on the right in front of him.
Countless criss-crossing streaks of silver light could be seen hovering in the air.
Then the old man stretched out his hand and put the red mirror into the silver light.
The silver light seemed to penetrate through every hole, penetrating the red circular mirror. Very quickly, countless fine silver veins appeared in the red mirror.
Seeing these silver meridians appear, the expression on the old man's face became even more dignified.
Suddenly, as if he had grasped a trajectory, he extended his hand and pointed. Five or six crystals that looked similar to high-grade spirit stones emitted b.a.l.l.s of milky white origin energy.
Then, as if driven by his will, this milky white origin energy condensed into a strand that struck the red mirror.
"Boom!"
An astonis.h.i.+ng heat and fire elemental aura suddenly emerged from the red circular mirror.
Flames like red tail feathers were emitted from the surface of the mirror.
"This guy really has some skills." The eyes of both Wei Suo and the female cultivator lit up at the same time when they saw such a scene, while the green-robed old man couldn't help but exclaim in Wei Suo's ears.
However, the old man did not stop. He narrowed his eyes and concentrated his true essence into the red circular mirror.
"This …"
Wei Suo's female cultivator widened her eyes at the same time.
On the surface of the red circular mirror, a bright yellow pillar of light suddenly appeared. It constantly expanded, and in an instant, its front end was over two zhang in diameter. Within the pillar of light, there were over ten bright golden symbols flying around like phoenix tails.
"Yes."
When the extremely serious old man saw this, he actually let out a sigh of relief. He waved his hand and stopped all of the formations. The red mirror that was refined from the Fire Sparrow Jade began to emit fire elemental energy and a bright yellow light beam before fading away.
