"This is the treasure you got back with deception. Why can't I see where the treasure is?" Yu Qingxuan looked at the rusty hairpin for a long time, but she couldn't figure out why.
"This hairpin has passed through several hands, and these idiots deliberately made it old several times in order to sell it for a good price." Long Chen took out a white jade board and gently tapped the hairpin on the white jade board.
"Snapped"
There was a soft sound, and fine cracks appeared on the hairpin. Long Chen tapped it a few more times, and the rust on it fell off.
However, even if the rust comes off, there is no luster and it still looks very rough.
Long Chen knocked again, and fine cracks appeared on it again. When the rust fell off this time, Yu Qingxuan finally saw a long-tailed bird lying on the tail of the hairpin.
"What kind of bird do you think this is?" Long Chen asked.
"It looks a bit like an ancient phoenix, but its head is too big and its mouth is a bit bloated. I have never seen such a bird before." Yu Qingxuan shook his head.
Others also looked at the hairpin and couldn't recognize it. Someone said: "The Feng clan also has a big-headed branch. It has a big head and is more intelligent."
"How is it possible? Every branch of the Feng clan has historical records, and there is no such shape at all." Someone retorted on the spot.
Long Chen smiled slightly and knocked again. This time, the hairpin peeled off another layer of rust. The bird's head was a lot smaller, but the mouth was not smaller, and it looked even weirder.
"This... looks a bit like the totem of our empire, the Suzaku!" someone exclaimed.
"Don't talk nonsense, how can Suzaku have such a mouth?" someone said.
"Maybe it's a deformity?" the man said unconvinced.
"You don't want your life, but you can talk nonsense about the totem?"
You must know that Suzaku is a sacred symbol in the Suzaku Empire and a totem of their faith. It is sacred and inviolable. If that person's words are heard in the Suzaku Empire, it will be a serious crime.
The man's expression changed and he quickly apologized. Yu Qingxuan looked at the little bird with a hint of surprise in her eyes:
"The shape does look like a Suzaku, but the mouth is so weird."
"Hey, keep reading." Long Chen chuckled and knocked on the white jade board again. When a piece of rust fell off, the powerful people of the Suzaku Empire, including Yu Qingxuan, exclaimed:
"Suzaku spits beads?"
When the rust on the hairpin completely fell off, revealing the true appearance of the bird, they were all shocked.
It was indeed a red bird, with its long tail hanging down and its wings slightly spread, as if it were singing upwards to the sky. There was a small bead in its mouth.
Suzaku spits out beads, which means that before the Suzaku reaches nirvana, it will spit out the essence in its body and condense it into a bead.
This bead contains the power of its life. If nirvana is successful, it will swallow this bead as the basis for rebirth.
If Nirvana fails, this bead will become a priceless treasure, because the Suzaku Fire is the fifth-ranked existence on the Heavenly Fire List.
The Suzaku Fire, like the Golden Crow Fire, should originally be regarded as animal fire, but they can evolve acquiredly. The Suzaku Fire has evolved to the highest level and is also called the Fire of Nirvana.
The Fire of the Golden Crow has evolved to the highest level and is called the Fire of the Sun, but the Fire of Nirvana is still ranked above the Fire of the Sun.
However, the fire of Suzaku must be achieved after Nirvana is successfully achieved, and then go through nine reincarnations of natural disasters. Each reincarnation is equivalent to one Nirvana, and it is the real fire of Nirvana after nine Nirvana rebirths.
The Suzaku Empire, the God of the Envelope Suzaku, enshrines the Suzaku totem, so the shape of the Suzaku spitting out beads is deeply rooted in the soul.
However, the Suzaku spitting beads they saw were all murals, but the Suzaku on this hairpin was three-dimensional, so no one recognized it.
Now that they recognized it, everyone couldn't help but be surprised. Although various beaded hairpins and gold hairpins were decorated with various sacred birds, including phoenix and phoenix, no one dared to use red bird for decoration.
Legend has it that Feng and Huang are one of the descendants of Suzaku, and they have inherited part of the Suzaku bloodline. The totems of the Phoenix are scattered throughout the nine heavens and ten places. However, as the ancestor of Suzaku, no one dares to paint its totem in the inner courtyard, let alone the Suzaku pattern.
Draw it on clothes and create it on accessories.
Legend has it that the Suzaku is a spiritual beast of heaven and earth. Those who are close to the way of heaven will receive profound blessings. If they get close to them, they will receive blessings.
Being close to a person who is unlucky will only bring disaster. Therefore, as a practitioner, no one will wear Suzaku jewelry, otherwise it will be fatal.
As for the Suzaku Empire, even the leader of the country does not have a Suzaku pattern on his body. Even their identity nameplates have the word "Suzaku" written in Jiuli script instead of using a pattern as a symbol.
It can be said that the red bird pattern is a taboo, so they were all surprised when they saw the red bird hairpin.
"The beads in its mouth..." Yu Qingxuan carefully looked at the rice-sized beads in the Suzaku's mouth, and a look of disbelief appeared in her beautiful eyes.
"It should be the Pearl of Nirvana. Unfortunately, it was too old and corroded by the Yin Qi underground, and its power has almost disappeared.
However, the fire has not been extinguished, Qingxuan, you try to nourish it with the power of flame, maybe you can rekindle it." Long Chen said.
"Long Chen, this Pearl of Nirvana is too precious. You discovered the hairpin. Come and light it!" Yu Qingxuan shook his head and said. The Pearl of Nirvana is a treasure that countless fire cultivators dare not even dream of.
If she lit it, it would be like letting the Pearl of Nirvana recognize its owner. She was a little embarrassed.
"Are you kidding me? You asked me, a grown man, to put a hairpin on my head? Isn't that enough to make people laugh to death? Stop making trouble and give it a try. If it doesn't work, I'll think of another way." Long Chen said.
Long Chen's expression made Yu Qingxuan laugh. Seeing Long Chen's resolute look, she was no longer polite. She stretched out her jade finger and a colorful flame slowly poured into the Pearl of Nirvana. The flame was the sky.
Rainbow flame.
As the rainbow flames poured into the Pearl of Nirvana, there were originally many spots on the hairpin, which were traces left by the erosion of the turbid underground air. However, under the burning of the rainbow flames, the spots gradually disappeared, but the hairpin itself did not have any traces.
The damage is getting brighter and brighter.
Everyone couldn't help but be moved. I'm afraid this hairpin has an unusual origin. You must know that any magic weapon can hardly resist the erosion of the turbid air in the underground. Once the turbid air invades, it can no longer be removed. If it is removed by force, it will itself be destroyed.
It will be damaged, but this hairpin is safe and sound.
"Buzz"
Suddenly, the Pearl of Nirvana trembled slightly, and then Long Chen discovered that a vast world appeared inside the rice-sized bead, and in the center of that world, stood a huge figure. It was an impressive figure.
Only——Suzaku.
For a moment, both Yu Qingxuan and Long Chen were stunned and couldn't believe what they were seeing.
