Xiuxian: But It's Not a Game

Chapter 16: The Remains of the Senior Immortal and the Sealed Treasure

A group of people dived forty or fifty meters along the channel left by the mutant two-headed worm's body, and saw that there was an invisible force field underneath that blocked the lake water out. Looking down through the invisible force field, they saw that there was a waterless space underneath.
"There seems to be someone inside."

"No, it's remains."

Shi Ning said to them in surprise and delight:

"There is the remains of a senior immortal in here."

"real or fake."

The group quickly jumped down and passed through the invisible force field into the interior.

This is a waterless space with a diameter of about 100 meters. It is surrounded by mud and blocked by an invisible force field.

There is a formation at the bottom of this waterless space. In the center sits a Taoist priest wearing exquisite robes but having turned into dry bones. Wisps of tangible spiritual power flow out from the Taoist priest and are injected into the formation to form an invisible force field that fills the entire space.

"We actually have the remains of an ancient immortal. We're going to make a fortune."

Several people came to the Taoist's remains and could clearly see the treasures on his body and in front of him.

The Taoist's robe, which was emitting spiritual light, was obviously of high quality.

In front of the Taoist priest was a sixth-level magic weapon, the Thousand Gu Banner. Although it was broken, it could be repaired.

To the right of the Thousand Gu Banner stands an ancient bronze urn with its surface carved with reliefs of various strange poisonous creatures. It also looks like a magic weapon.

On the left is a jade slip, which should be a Taoist jade slip.

There was also something in the Taoist's hands. His palms were clasped together, and inside was a gray bead.

"Check it first."

Several people stepped forward to inspect it. Zhuang Zhuo first took out the ancient bronze urn and injected his magic power into it. His face immediately showed ecstasy:
"Oh my god, the golden-winged flying centipede!"

Shi Ning and others looked over immediately:

"What golden-winged flying centipede? Is there a golden-winged flying centipede in here?"

"Yes, there are a few golden-winged flying centipedes in here."

Then he shared the properties of the ancient bronze urn with everyone:
Ancient Bronze Urn (fifth-level magic weapon): This ancient urn is made of Chishan bronze and can nurture spiritual insects and poisonous creatures.

Attributes: Contains 4 golden-winged flying centipedes, which need to be fed with blood every day. One golden-winged flying centipede is reproduced every seven days, with an upper limit of 360. If all are killed in battle, they cannot continue to reproduce.

Golden-winged Flying Centipede (Elite): Insect, Gu type, Level 40, a Gu insect formed by the fusion of a golden centipede and a flying Gu, with the ability to fly.

Cultivation: Qi and blood 7500, demonic power 500, attack 600, poison damage 300, speed 400 km/h, skills: golden beam, golden poison mist.

"Oh my god, it's really a golden-winged flying centipede."

“We are going to rise.”

Several people gathered around, looking ecstatic.

Su Yu didn't feel anything about this. He didn't follow the path of Gu, so he had no interest in this. Instead, he was a little interested in other things.

He casually picked up the jade slip and looked at it. When he saw that the level of the mental method was exquisite, his eyes lit up.

Wan Gu Ju Ling Jing (Exquisite): An unconventional Qi-refining technique with thirty levels in total.

Each level increased by +40 health, +80 mana, +40 spell power, +0.1 mana recovery per second, +30 poison worm health, +10 poison worm attack, +2 km/h poison worm speed.

Training requirements: 15 points of innate bone, 18 points of innate understanding.

The True Scripture of Gu Dao contains 17 secret methods of refining Gu.

"Nima!"

After reading it, Su Yu was speechless.

The good news is that it is a sophisticated level of Qi refining technique.

Bad news, it's only for Gu cultivators and is of no use to him.

Although the Qi Refining Mental Technique can be transferred for cultivation, it cannot be done casually. Every time it is transferred, the mental technique and magic power that have been painstakingly improved will be greatly reduced.

Not to mention the transition from an intermediate Qi Refining Mental Technique to a refined Qi Refining Mental Technique, even if one transitions to the same intermediate Qi Refining Mental Technique, the number of levels will drop from thirty-three levels to more than twenty levels, and many levels in between will be lost.

This loss will also vary depending on the different types of mental methods.

The loss when switching to practicing the same type of Xuanmen Qi-refining technique is not great, only about 10%.

If you switch from the Taoist sect to the side sect or the Buddhist sect, the loss will be about 20% to 30%.

If one switches from the Xuanmen sect to the magic path, the loss will be as high as 50%, which is equivalent to half of the cultivation being lost in vain.

Su Yu is extremely poor now, so how could he be willing to lose so much cultivation?

Speechlessly, he handed the jade slip to Zhuang Zhuo:

"Here, it's yours."

Zhuang Zhuo took it with suspicion, and the next second his eyes widened:
"Shit!"

Several others also took over and checked it out, and were all shocked one after another.

Su Yu ignored them and looked at the Taoist's remains again, reaching out and pressing the robes on the remains.

As soon as they touched it, the remains suddenly collapsed and the body turned into ash and disappeared, shocking everyone.

"Oh no! The force field that maintains this space is shrinking. Everyone, quickly divide your things and leave."

Su Yu waved his hand to blow away the ashes, picked up the robe and checked its properties.

Spirit Gathering Robe (Fifth Grade): A robe made of thousand-year-old spiritual silk, impervious to water and fire.

Attributes: Constitution +200, Strength +200.

Attributes: Avoid water, fire, wind, dust and poison.

Attributes: Defensive gas shield. When receiving predetermined damage, a layer of defensive gas shield will be automatically activated. The defense power is 20000 and lasts for 15 minutes. It can be activated once a day. The damage critical point can be set or it can be turned on actively.

"nice one!"

Su Yu was immediately attracted.

There are five items, each person can get one, and the others are used by Gu practitioners. When the time comes, no one should compete with me for this one.

At this time, Gu Zhiqiu picked up the bead that had also fallen to the ground, looked around, and looked puzzled:
"Why does this thing have no attributes?"

Several people looked up, and Shi Ning reached out to take it, also puzzled:

“Indeed, there are no attributes.”

Then Meng Chen and Zhuang Zhuo took them one by one and examined them, both shaking their heads.

Finally, it was Su Yu's turn, and its attributes emerged:
Nameless beads.

And then no more.

"That makes no sense. This thing seems to be between the remains' hands. Logically, it should be the most precious. Why..."

Before he could finish his words, Su Yu suddenly felt a sudden flash of light in his mind. An indescribable flash of inspiration appeared and disappeared into the bead in his hand. The next second, the bead in his hand became hot, and hair-like light patterns appeared on the surface. It slowly hung up, becoming brighter and brighter in front of everyone's eyes, and slowly turned into a bead emitting a blue light, then plunged into Su Yu's eyebrows and disappeared.

"This is?"

Several people looked at Su Yu, and he spread his hands:
"I don't know. It just started glowing on its own. I didn't do anything."

Shi Ning pinched his chin and said:

"Indeed, we are right next to it. This thing is shining by itself."

Gu Zhiqiu nodded and said:

"I saw it too. This thing was activated suddenly."

Zhuang Zhuo smiled and said:

"This thing must be destined for Brother Su. The four of us have handled it and there was no reaction, but you reacted as soon as you got it. I heard that high-level magic weapons above level seven have spirits and will automatically recognize their masters. This kind of thing is not uncommon."

Shi Ning waved his hand and said:

"This one is yours. You can also pick another one." Su Yu waved his hand quickly and said:
"There are exactly five pieces of loot, one for each of us."

Although Zhuang Zhuo was somewhat envious of his opportunity, he still waved his hand seriously and said:
"That's not how you settle accounts. As the saying goes, even brothers have to settle accounts. You discovered this place, and you were the main force in the battle just now. No matter how you look at it, you are entitled to another share of the spoils."

Shi Ning, Meng Chen and Gu Zhiqiu all nodded.

"Actually, for us, having this golden-winged flying centipede is a huge win. The four of us are all on the path of Gu, and this golden-winged flying centipede is a top-notch Gu insect. Once we refine it, we will each have hundreds or even thousands of insects. Who can be our opponent?"

"Well"

"All right!"

"Then I'll take the vestments."

Zhuo Chen picked up the robe and stuffed it on him:
"Here, it's yours."

Then he said to Shi Ning and others with a smile:

"After refining the Golden-Winged Flying Centipede, how do we divide the remaining Bronze Ancient Urn, Thousand Gu Banner, and Ten Thousand Gu Gathering Spirit Scripture?"

Several people looked at each other in silence for more than ten seconds, and then Zhuang Zhuo said:
"I want the ancient bronze urn. I don't have enough innate attributes to learn it. Who among you can learn it?"

Gu Zhiqiu raised his hand:
"I can satisfy you."

Shi Ning and Meng Chen both shook their heads.

"A sophisticated Qi Refining technique is the most valuable. Zhiqiu, you need to pay a little more. In addition, you need to share the Gu Refining Technique within the True Solution of the Ten Thousand Gu Gathering Spirits Sutra."

Gu Zhiqiu immediately replied:
"No problem. This can be shared with up to ten people. Everyone will get a share. In addition, each person will receive 10 taels of gold. Those who don't get anything will receive another 40 taels of gold. However, I don't have the money right now, so I'll give it to you later."

"can."

The few of them quickly agreed on the distribution and divided the things. Before leaving, Shi Ning asked:

"There's a spiritual vein in this place. Do you want to build a Gu pit?"

Su Yu shook his head and said:
"Building a Gu pit underwater is quite expensive, so we can't do it now. But we can leave a mark and build it later when we have money."

"Row."

A group of people soared into the sky and rushed out along the original passage.

Not long after they left, the place began to collapse, burying the ancient immortal ruins hidden underground.

"We are so lucky."

"I always hear about people who have the opportunity to obtain the treasures of ancient immortals and soar to the sky. I never thought we would have such luck."

"Brother Su Yu is blessed, and we will benefit from it."

"That is."

Several people happily set out on their return journey.

Su Yu immediately discovered that the invisible water-proof space around him had expanded to a diameter of seven or eight meters. It was obvious that the water-proof functions of the robe and the Black Water Pearl could be combined.

After returning to the base, several people couldn't wait to study the harvest.

Those who got the mental method studied it, those who got the magic weapon prepared to repair it, and those who got the golden-winged flying centipede quickly studied the refining method. Su Yu also returned to his room to check his gains.

There is nothing much to say about the robes, they are used to save lives.

He has 200 physique and 200 strength. Physique represents absolute defense, which means that attacks below 200 cannot even break the defense of the robe. Strength represents physical attack. He now has 200 attacks with his bare hands.

Fayi took a quick look and then looked away, his mind fixed on the bead that automatically recognized its master.

He stretched out his hand, and the blue light in his palm gathered and condensed into a crystal blue bead. Wisps of cool blue smoke rose up and merged into his body, which was a world of difference compared to the previous gray smoke.

Zhenhai Pearl (unknown divine object): Sealed, a relic of the Dragon Palace, it can control infinite water vapor and divide the water to stabilize the sea.

Attributes: Water magic power +100%, water magic consumption -50%, water magic damage reduction 50%.

Attributes: Zhenhai, Zhenhai Pearl can control infinite water vapor, divide water, calm the sea, whirlpool, tsunami.

Tip: The origin of Zhenhai Pearl is changing your essence.

Equipment requirements: Owner recognized.

"???"

"What magic weapon is this?"

Su Yu held the azure bead in his hand with his mouth slightly opened, extremely shocked.

100% water magic power bonus, 50% water magic damage reduction, this.
This attribute was simply outrageous and completely beyond his imagination.

He looked at the rising blue smoke, pondered for a moment, opened his mouth and sucked the bead back into his mouth, then it disappeared.

He stretched out his hand again and grabbed, and the surrounding water vapor gathered, quickly forming a ball of clear water hanging in the palm of his hand.

Spread out your five fingers and pinch them together, the water in the palm of your hand will change and become a triangle, and then change into a square, a sphere, and various irregular shapes as your fingers change.

He opened his mouth and spit out an irregular ball of water, which flew out and turned into a lifelike water snake. It hit the wall and turned into a pool of clear water and fell down.

After some attempts, Su Yu already knew the power of this treasure. Theoretically, as long as he had enough magic power and a sufficient understanding of the water rules, he could cast almost all water magic powers out of thin air.

"Such a powerful force, this is definitely not an ordinary magic weapon."

Su Yu reached out and summoned the Zhenhai Pearl again, and a bold idea emerged in his mind:

"Could this thing be a sealed top-level magic weapon? A ninth or tenth-tier treasure?"

This thing had only been unlocked a little bit in his perception, but the properties displayed were already so exaggerated.

If all the seals could be unlocked, the power would definitely be beyond his imagination.

"That's outrageous!"

Who could have imagined that a mere immortal from a side sect could possess such a super treasure?

Unfortunately, this unknown immortal does not have this fate and ability to break the seal, so he cannot obtain this treasure.

If it was a complete top-level treasure, this immortal from a side sect would not have died here in obscurity.

But then again, they actually had no fate, whether it was Zhuang Zhuo or Shi Ning and the others. They had no reaction when the treasure passed through their hands.

Su Yu himself had no fate, and had no reaction when he first took it, but the golden finger that came with him gave him fate.

Unlock the seal forcefully and the baby will recognize its master.

It’s just that his current cultivation level is too low, and he has only unlocked a little bit of the treasure’s power. The remaining power will be unlocked slowly after his cultivation level is improved.

As his consciousness sank, he saw a blue sun hanging above his sea of ​​consciousness. A faint blue light bloomed from the blue sun and merged into his sea of ​​consciousness.

Su Yu understood clearly that the blooming blue light was the original power of the treasure, which was slowly changing his own qualifications.

In simple terms, the power of the treasure is slowly strengthening his innate attributes.

Although the speed is not fast, it takes about a month to increase by 1 point, and the enhancement of the tenth-level treasure that has not been completely unsealed also has its limits, but what does it matter?
Increase innate attributes!
"With this treasure, I will focus on cultivating the Qi Heart Method from now on, and I will try to choose water-based flying swords as my magic weapons."

"Also, the Fire Essence Solution I was practicing previously conflicts with the Sea-Suppressing Pearl, so I have to wash it off and replace it with water."

"No, there's no need to switch to the Water Elemental Explanation. As long as you have a sufficient understanding and mastery of the Great Way of Water, you can master all kinds of water spells by yourself. There's no need to practice the Water Elemental Explanation at all."

Of course, the key point is that it takes practice points and Taoism to switch to practicing Shui Yuan Zhen Jie.

Thinking of this, Su Yu directly opened the panel and chose to forget the tenth level of Fire Element Solution, recovering 21 practice points and 6 points of Taoism.

I lost a little, but not much.

After closing the panel, Su Yu went out to the Gu refining field and found that only Zhuang Zhuo was tinkering there. Shi Ning, Gu Zhiqiu, and Meng Chen were not there. He asked curiously:
"Where are they?"

Zhuang Zhuo said without turning his head:

"Gu Zhiqiu is in seclusion, Shi Ning and Meng Chen have returned to the guild headquarters. Shi Ning is going to repair the Thousand Gu Banner, and Meng Chen is going to buy a golden centipede and a flying Gu, preparing to try to refine a few golden-winged flying centipedes."

"Oh!"
