Chapter 140 – White jade bells


“Thank you for giving me this opportunity.”

Shen Juanxiu expressed her gratitude repeatedly. After obtaining the result of the Foundation Establishment, she was no longer anxious and uncertain.

“No need to thank me, I also got what I wanted.”

Chen Mobai shook his head. Perhaps for others, the opportunity to predict the Foundation Establishment was priceless, but for him, it was just a matter of acting on behalf.

After chatting for a while, the three of them parted ways.

Chen Mobai had been busy lately, converting the Five Elements spiritual power. He usually secluded himself in the cave he had rented during the previous magic duel, and he had extended the lease for another half a year.

The “Pure Yang Scroll” was indeed one of the seven Deification techniques of the Immortal Gate. The spiritual power it cultivated was much more profound than the Five Elements technique, and the route of operation was also several times more complex.

It was at this time that Chen Mobai realized that changing cultivation techniques was even more difficult than abandoning and re-cultivating.

To abandon and re-cultivate, one only needed to discard the spiritual power and could calmly change to a new technique.

But the spiritual power cultivated by one technique, when transformed into another, required much more energy and understanding, much more than re-cultivation.

If it weren’t for the Red Robe Taoist master watching and teaching Chen Mobai hand in hand to complete the first strand of spiritual power transformation, with his own comprehension and talent, it would probably take at least a month, and there was a high possibility of leaving irreversible hidden dangers due to a deviation in the understanding of the technique.

After completing the first strand of the “Pure Yang Scroll” spiritual power transformation, Chen Mobai had already stepped over the most difficult beginning, and the rest was just a matter of grinding.

Thanks to the Immortal Gate allowing all students to cultivate the basic Five Elements technique, the spiritual power cultivated was the most balanced and harmonious, and could be transformed into any technique without obstacles. Otherwise, Chen Mobai would have had to abandon and re-cultivate if he wanted to change to the “Pure Yang Scroll”.

But if that were the case, Chen Mobai would definitely stick to the Five Elements technique all the way.

He would just win by realm, like Qingping Shangren.

That night, after completing the spiritual power transformation, Chen Mobai, in his room, with a series of talismans he had just bought online, once again used the Turtle Treasure to teleport to the Tianhe Realm.

First, he used a spirit-seeking talisman to confirm that there were no monsters near the cave, then Chen Mobai carefully lifted the cover of the cave entrance.

After coming out, looking at the desolate Qingguang Island under the starry sky, he couldn’t help but sigh.

He didn’t know if the black plague birds would come to forage at night, so Chen Mobai carefully took out three talismans and stuck them on his body, which were for hiding his breath, concealing his figure, and floating his body.

Last time he only went to two places, the center of Qingguang Island, and the location of the spirit tree that his team had previously guarded.

The vast Qingguang Island, even if it had been plowed by monsters, there should be some lucky survivors.

Chen Mobai wanted to know what had happened.

He floated his body, like a dark cloud, starting from this collapsed wooden house, he first went to the center of Qingguang Island again, where the Shenmu Sect’s teleportation array was located.

Along the way, there were countless broken and shattered magical instruments.

It was a pity that there were no storage bags, otherwise these things could be taken back to Di Yuan Star and sold to those who recycle waste, which would be a large amount of Good Deed income.

If there were channels to the refiners, these broken magical instruments could be completely re-refined into raw materials.

In recent centuries, the Immortal Gate has seen a rise in the price of all raw materials, whether it be metals, precious metals, spiritual wood, jade, or minerals.

However, the origin of these damaged magical instruments was not easy to explain, so to avoid exposure at the Immortal Gate, Chen Mobai had to give up scavenging.

He walked reluctantly from the ruins of the market at the bottom of the island to the teleportation hall at the top of the island, picking and choosing, picking up and throwing away, but all the magical instruments were completely damaged and had lost their spiritual light.

Just as he was about to give up and go to the hall, a red string stained with mud caught his attention.

This was in the stone slab gap of the market street’s bluestone bricks. Chen Mobai reached out his hand, pinched the end of the string, and gently pulled.

Ding Ling Ling!

The crisp and pleasant bell sound rang out, and Chen Mobai’s anxious mood due to the lack of harvest instantly calmed down.

A faintly visible jade-like luster caught his eye.

This was a pair of very exquisite white jade bells strung together with several strands of red thread.

Chen Mobai immediately cast a silence talisman, fearing that the bell sound would attract the attention of the black plague birds, and also found a hidden place to hide.

Although this was the center of the island, far from the reef where the group of monsters lived, the bell sound was absolutely impossible to reach there.

But just in case, this group of black plague birds was naturally able to control the gale, what if the vibration of the bell sound here was captured by some monster with a unique talent?

Thinking of this, the always cautious Chen Mobai did not hesitate.

He returned the same way, in his own cave, he directly pressed the “Return to City” button.

Silver light flickered.

Chen Mobai, holding this pair of white jade bells, had already returned to the cave of Danzhu Academy.

He cast a cleaning spell, and instantly the mud-stained bells shone again, bright and transparent.

The red string that strung them was especially bright, and under the contrast of the white jade color, it was as red as fire.

As a boy, Chen Mobai was somewhat reluctant to part with this exquisite magical instrument.

He gently shook it, and the two bells instantly made a crisp and pleasant, yet annoying and depressed sound, making him extremely uncomfortable.”It seems that the functions of these two bells are different. One should be for calming the mind, and the other might cause annoyance.”

Chen Mobai didn’t dare to infuse his spiritual power to test it. If the power of this magical instrument exceeded his expectations and shook him to the point of damaging his mind, it wouldn’t be good.

He needed to find a professional.

He took out his phone and took a dozen photos of the pair of white jade bells from all angles, then sent them to Wu Wan.

The next day.

Wu Wan came directly to Danzhu Academy.

“Master Wu, why did you come in person?”

Chen Mobai was very surprised when he opened the door and saw him.

“Brother Chen, as a disciple of the Dance Instrument Dao Academy, your status is now incomparable to the past. It’s my honor that you thought of me, Wu. How could I let you wait?”

Wu Wan’s attitude was completely different now, which made Chen Mobai feel a bit uncomfortable.

“No, no, let’s just be like before. I feel uneasy with you acting like this.”

Chen Mobai immediately welcomed Wu Wan in, then took the pair of white jade bells from beside his pillow, casually placed them on the table, and handed them over.

“The body is like condensed fat, with a brilliant inner blue.”

Wu Wan first visually inspected it, gave an evaluation of the jade’s color and luster, then put on gloves before daring to pick it up and carefully observe it.

After a while, he exclaimed and gave a four-word comment.

“White, transparent, fine, and moist.”

Seeing Wu Wan’s unprecedented expression, Chen Mobai knew that this magical instrument might be very good, and he must have found a treasure.

“Master Wu, what is the grade and quality of these bells, and to what level can you appraise them?”

Now that he had money, Chen Mobai naturally hoped that Wu Wan could thoroughly appraise these bells, preferably reverse-engineer the refining and usage methods, so that he could truly master them.

“If I’m not mistaken, the raw material of this magical instrument should be second-grade ‘Flowing Water Jade’, but the level of the cultivator who refined it was too poor, only reaching the level of first-grade top quality. It’s such a waste.”
