Chapter 1055 – Stone of Mount Qishan

Xiahou Changshu could not help but laugh. Although she did not know how An Zheng goiece of Essence Crystal from Zhang Suian, he could guess a little from the expression on his face. It was probably related to the item that he had just obtained, and Zhang Suian had definitely suffered a setback.

“I’m not afraid of bad people having guts, but I’m afraid of bad people having knowledge.”

Xiahou Changshu laughed and shook his head: “You have extorted General Zhang’s most trusted subordinate, General Zhang, and now you still want to work under him?”

An Zheng: “Didn’t you say you were going to bring me away?”

Xiahou Changshu: “If I really bring you away, I will definitely lock you in the house and never see anyone else. “Use the iron chain to cut through your shoulder. If you want to do anything to other women, I’ll cut your flesh into pieces and cook it.”

An Zheng: “Do you want me to use sesame seed paste or soy sauce?”

Xiahou Changshu was stunned for a moment, then laughed until his branches trembled, “You glib guy.”

She reached out and grabbed An Zheng’s hand, her fingers gently scratching at his palm the entire time.

Zhang Suian, who was on the stage, took a glance at An Zheng, thinking to himself, “Why is this Xun Anhui so intimate with Xiahou Changshu?” Initially, he was still rather indignant, but he had no choice but to persuade himself to just forget it. He would just treat it as a gift from a person to befriend. With Xun Anhui’s talent, he would definitely be of great use in the court in the future. It was better to form a relationship now than to fawn over him in the future. No matter how much he trusted General Zhang, he was just a butler. Xun Anhui came from an extraordinary background, rich and talented, sooner or later it will soar to greatness.

He gathered his thoughts and continued introducing his items.

Xiahou Changshu kept teasing An Zheng, while An Zheng’s attention was actually on the items being displayed. He did not know much about Essence Crystal, and now that he had gotten hold of a piece, he placed it in the Blood Pearl’s space. This thing belonged to the ancient era, so it was unclear what its use was. But An Zheng must see more of this time’s auction, because many things were not from this era.

In any era, as long as there was an auction, there would be gambling stones. The best thing that An Zheng would bet on in this era’s auction were stones that were close to the level of Purple-Rank, something that could only be encountered by luck but not sought after. He wondered what this ancient person would cut from the stone.

Master, the Essence Crystal has already analyzed it. From the composition, it should be pretty much the same as the Golden-Rank Spirit Stone, but its purity is even higher, so its grade should be considered a Purple-Rank spirit stone. Furthermore, it contains a large amount of rich spirit energy which can be directly absorbed. Each piece of Essence Crystal could bring the equivalent of half a year of cultivation to the Cultivation Power s. Of course, this is worth master’s half a year of cultivation. If an ordinary cultivator were to absorb the spirit energy contained within a piece of Essence Crystal, it could be equivalent to several years of cultivation.]

Good stuff.

Although Golden-Rank Spirit Stone were powerful and could provide spirit power support to magic tools, they could not be directly absorbed by cultivators. It was no wonder that the Essence Crystal were so valuable. With An Zheng’s terrifying speed in cultivation, it was already shocking enough that it was equivalent to half a year’s worth of cultivation.

[Master, the best news is that Essence Crystal are precious in that they have a very strong adaptability. If a cultivator had a fire attribute physique, then the Essence Crystal would be able to replenish the fire attribute Cultivation Power. Essence Crystal can accurately determine your strongest cultivation attribute and make it stronger.]

An Zheng acknowledged this as he tried to absorb one piece later.

As he was thinking, Zhang Suian clapped on the stage: “Alright, these few items already have a new owner, congratulations to all of you. Before the Heavy Treasures Qian Yuan Wall comes out to meet everyone, let’s relax … This time, General Zhang took out some stones from the military warehouse to give everyone some fun.

“Good, good, good! “I’ve been waiting for this moment.”

“We can’t wait any longer, this is the time to test our eyesight.”

“Bring him here quickly, the items in General Zhang’s army must be extraordinary.”

Zhang Suian laughed, “That may not be so, although it is an item given by the military, but no one can guarantee that there is something inside that stone. The only thing I can guarantee is that these stones came from Qishan. ”

Everyone sucked in a breath of cold air when they heard his words.

Qi Shan, that warue treasure trove.

Back then, in order to fight for Qi Shan, the two of them had to fight for six consecutive wars, killing many corpses. Compared to the Polygonum cuspidatum Thunb, the power of the Empire of Shu was far inferior. However, in order to become a mountain, the Prime Minister of the Kingdom of Shu, Zhuge Qionglu, had carried the weight of a militant. For a long period of time, Mount Qishan was occupied by the State of Shu. This was also the reason why the State of Shu, despite being weak, could produce a large number of experts with shocking cultivations.

Back then, in order to obtain Qi Shan, the super strong warriors of the Polygonum cuspidatum Thunb had all fallen, and could be said to have suffered heavy losses.

There was a saying in the martial arts world that the Essence Crystal of the world came out of the Qishan … In other words, all the Essence Crystal in the world came from Qishan, and only Qishan could produce Essence Crystal. It was because of this that the country of Shu fought for Qishan at all costs.

The stone of Mount Qishan was not only a symbol of wealth, but also a symbol of opportunity.

A group of armored warriors came out of the auction house with several large boxes and placed them on the platform. Zhang Suian pointed to the big chests and said: “These stones were carved out by the Prime Minister of Shu during his sixth attack on Qishan. After the army of Shu retreated in defeat, General Zhang chased after them with his troops. Do you know who it was taken from? ”

“Who is it?”

“Could it be that … Zhao Mie?! ”

“That’s right!”

Zhang Suian sighed: “I have to say, this Zhao Mie is truly a super strong Ranker of his generation, he can be considered a Grandmaster. Back then, when Zhuge Qionglu’s troops were defeated and retreated, he only brought five hundred personal guards to cut off the rear. Under the pursuit of my Polygonum cuspidatum Thunb’s hundreds of thousands of elite soldiers, he had no choice but to throw away the last batch of stones that we were escorting. But this did not mean that Zhao Mie had lost … “Under the siege of hundreds of thousands of soldiers, he was able to lead five hundred of his janissaries to carvath back to Shu without losing a single soldier …”

After saying all that, Zhang Suian immediately shut his mouth, if he continued, he would make a mistake. He was clearly raising Zhao Mie up and belittling Zhang Yuan. After all, Zhang Yuan was one of the Great Generals that led his men in pursuit.

“But everyone think about it, a person like Zhao Mie was still defeated by our General Zhang in the end.”

Zhang Suian laughed in embarrassment, at least he had found a way to himself.

“Put it on the table.”

He did not want to continue, so he quickly had his men open the big box and place the things inside on the big table. A total of twenty-three stones had been brought out. The largest one was about half a meter in size while the smaller one was only the size of a watermelon. Everyone knew that a stone that contained a treasure must have something extraordinary about it. However, he could only tell if there was anything special about it. He couldn’t even tell what it was.

The most troubling thing about the Myriad Mountains Stone was that it could not be seen from its appearance. There was nothing special about it. Even if it wasn’t the Mountain Crystal, no one would take a second look at it if it was casually thrown outside. These stones were just like those used to build houses on the city wall. There was no difference in quality between the stones used to build houses and the ones used to build houses.

“It’s not that I’m speaking up for the enemy, everyone in the world knows that there are two people with the most discerning ability towards the Stone of Alchemy, and one of them is the Prime Minister of Shu, Zhuge Qionglu. The other one is of course our Polygonum cuspidatum Thunb’s Great Master Sima. It was rumored that Zhuge Qionglu had once opened a stone essence that was comparable to a Great Sage Level expert on the mountain range. Some people even said that Purple-Rank Essence Crystal had appeared on the Mysterious Stone of Mount Qishan before, and after absorbing it, one would be able to leap up to become a Saint level expert. If the Saints absorb it, they can directly break through their shackles and become a Great Sage level Omnipotent Expert. ”

“At that time, the strongest cultivator in our sect was known as the Immortal Emperor. However, that was the saying of the immortal palaces. Immortal Grade experts from the Immortal Palace are equivalent to our Saints. Above Saints were Great Saints, and above them were Saint Emperors. Each level was divided into nine levels. Correspondingly, the Immortal Palaces were divided into many levels. Immortal Level, Supreme Immortal Level, True Immortal Level, Golden Immortal Level, and then Immortal Emperor Level. Each rank is also divided into nine ranks. ”

“There is a saying, why is it that cultivators in the Mortal Realm find it difficult to surpass the Immortal Palace in terms of strength? This was because even the best Mountain Ascending Stone was taken away by those from the immortal palace. It was rumored that Immortal Emperor Qing Lian and Immortal Emperor Xuan-Yuan had gone to Qishan and took away the best batch of stones, while the remaining items were far from being of good quality. The Immortal Emperor used the Qi Mountain Stone aeward. Back then, many of the experts in the Inside the Immortal Palace, such as the Heavenly King of the Pagoda, the three-headed six-armed God Child who was rumored to traverse tens of thousands of miles a day on a fire wheel, and the Heavenly Eye Yang Erlang, all became stronger after obtaining the Qi Mountain Stone.

Zhang Suian laughed: “That’s all you have to say, everyone just treat it as listening to a story. What I mean is, the Mysterious Stone ireasure that even the Immortal Palace’s Golden Immortal Stage and even the Immortal Emperor Level Master coveted. Now, it has been placed in front of everyone. When I mentioned Zhuge Qionglu, everyone just now must have thought that I was trying to increase others’ morale and extinguish my own... In fact, what I want to say is that these stones were all picked out by Zhuge Qionglu. ”

Everyone then realized why Zhang Suian talked so much … Everyone knew that Zhuge Qionglu was the current number one treasure appraiser, so it would be even harder to obtain a Stone of Mount Qishan from him. Back then, the Empire of Shu did not hesitate to lose countless men and women to seize these treasures. From this, it could be seen how precious they were. What was more precious was that Zhao Mie had personally escorted this batch of stones back then. Zhao Mie was the number one ranked warrior of Shu, and could be ranked as one of the top five strongest warriors.

Xiahou Changshu let out a faint sigh, “Even your Majesty has to pay respect to my father for his outstanding achievements in the Polygonum cuspidatum Thunb. However, Father also said that when the world is young … The one ranked first is Zhuge Qionglu, followed by my Polygonum cuspidatum Thunb’s Mister Sima. If these stones were truly picked by Zhuge Qionglu, then I’m afraid that he would reveal something extraordinary. ”

An Zheng took out his piece of Essence Crystal and placed it on the table.

Xiahou Changshu was slightly startled: “Then … Just this piece of Essence Crystal? ”

An Zheng smiled and said: “I just said it, a Essence Crystal is enough. What these stones produced were only Essence Crystal s, they couldn’t possibly be priced at Essence Crystal s to buy a piece of stone, so … The chances are huge. ”

He threw that piece of Essence Crystal out and threw it to the auction house’s shop assistant: “Change it into Golden-Rank Spirit Stone for me.”
