Chapter 150 Cultivation Techniques and Secret Treasures
Sitting on the leisure chair in the lounge, Gao Yuan quietly stared at the two ancient secret treasures in his hands that had just been captured this afternoon.
These two ancient secret treasures are both about the size of a palm. They are a clumsy-shaped square-headed blue metal mallet, and a piece of silver-white, tortoise-shell-like object.
What was somewhat different from his expectation was that these two ancient treasures with mysterious origins looked very shabby.
Not only was the surface of the tortoise-shell secret treasure covered with more than a dozen shallow cracks that looked like white lines.
Even the square-head mallet with its crude shape had obvious wear and scratches on its handle.
There is also an irregular notch the size of a thumb in the middle area of the top of the mallet head.
And in most areas of its surface, there are also mottled rust stains that are not very large, but very obvious!
His fingers gently rubbed the surfaces of these two ancient secret treasures, feeling the various undulating traces.
Gao Yuan unexpectedly recalled in his mind the 'Feilong City Deacon' who was killed by him this afternoon.
After using sneak attack tactics and successfully controlling the opponent, he originally wanted to take this opportunity to torture out some useful information.
But what he didn't expect was that this guy who seemed to be about the same age as him but had an extremely violent temper was also very strong-willed.
Even in the face of his explosive power in the Hunyuan realm and the severe physical pain of broken tendons, he still did not choose to give in.
Instead, he spoke harshly to him and cursed him as hard as he could.
After ordinary physical torture yielded no results, Gao Yuan naturally would not give up easily.
He thought about it briefly and then chose to use the 'Soul Forbidden Curse' directly.
He planned to use the pain that penetrated his soul when the latter had an attack to further torture him to extract a confession, thereby forcing him to surrender.
But just when he activated the technique of the 'Soul Forbidden Curse' and slowly invaded the divine palace of the 'Deacon of Feilong City' with his transformed spiritual power, a sudden change occurred.
As if some unknown restriction had been triggered, a powerful and violent aura suddenly erupted from within the opponent's palace.
Not only did he strangle the soul of the 'Feilong City Deacon' in an instant, he was absolutely invincible.
Afterwards, the power of the voice continued unabated, radiating directly towards Gaoyuan on the side.
Its destructive power was so great that it even shattered the few strands of his consciousness that had not yet retreated!
This sudden change was beyond Gao Yuan's expectation.
After reacting, he was secretly glad in his heart.
In fact, as early as when he was in the Kaiyuan Realm, he had planned to capture one or two 'Feilong City Deacons' alive and interrogate them for various information.
However, every mission target assigned by the 'Whip Holder' organization is very powerful, and these people all have more or less one or two ancient secret treasures for protection.
As a result, every time he faced the enemy, he basically ended up with the best talisman.
So even though the 'Feilong City Deacon' he killed had already been killed by two hands, it was only this time that he was able to truly capture him alive.
Now that I think about it, I'm glad I didn't succeed in the first place.
Otherwise, even when he was in the Kaiyuan Realm, his power of spiritual thoughts was much higher than that of the same level due to his practice of the "Shentong Jue".
Once he encounters today's restriction unexpectedly when asking for information, he may have to shed his skin even if he doesn't die!
After all, he has now entered the middle stage of the Hunyuan Realm, and his abilities in all aspects have already made a qualitative leap compared to the peak of the Kaiyuan Realm.
The previous power of divine thoughts has long since transformed into a more powerful divine consciousness, but it is still not immune to the damage caused by this restriction!
The power of the latter is evident!
It was so dangerous that even when he thought about it now, he still felt a little frightened.
At the same time, through this incident, his understanding of the behavior of this so-called "Flying Dragon City" force has also deepened.
In the past few years, together with "Ember", he has stirred up troubles in all directions, leaving aside his motives for stirring up trouble everywhere.
Just the ruthlessness and cruelty towards one's own people is enough to make people raise eyebrows!
"Although I didn't get any valuable information this time, fortunately, I have obtained the universal activating method of ancient secret treasures before."
"If I use this to activate it, it will be enough for me to have a rough feeling of the special features of these two ancient secret treasures!"
Looking at the two secret treasures in his hands, Gao Yuan muttered to himself.
Ever since I accidentally learned about the ‘Ancient Secret Treasure’, this magical branch of treasure.
In the past few years, he has issued various intelligence gathering tasks for this category of treasures.
Although the category of 'Ancient Secret Treasures' is somewhat special, the distribution of functional categories is also very mixed.
Moreover, when activating different ancient secret treasures, they need to be supplemented by matching secret techniques to control them in order to fully mobilize the power of such treasures.
But as more and more ruins are discovered, more and more ancient secret treasures that were not accompanied by the accompanying secret techniques of control during the excavation process have been retrieved.
Regarding the use of this ancient secret treasure that does not have the accompanying secret method of controlling the envoy, it has also attracted more and more attention from monks and powerful people.
Thanks to the efforts of countless senior monks, especially after part of the ancient inheritance was discovered, it has gone through a long period of research and exploration.
Finally, some universal envoy control methods that can be effective against a variety of ancient secret treasures have been gradually developed.
In the treasure house of the One-Star Whip Bearer, there is a rather miraculous general method of commanding an envoy, which can be exchanged directly using meritorious deeds.
Because the exchange price is very cheap, only 1500 merits are needed.
Therefore, although he had never obtained the corresponding ancient secret treasure, Gao Yuan still exchanged this secret method without hesitation after his achievements were abundant.
Although due to adaptability issues, when using this universal control method to activate the ancient secret treasure, only part of the secret treasure's abilities can be mobilized.
There is a big gap between the power it finally displays and when using the accompanying secret method of controlling the envoy.
But at least after mastering this general method, there will not be a situation where the ancient secret treasure cannot be used because the matching secret method of commanding is not obtained.
As his mind turned, Gao Yuan directly probed for the thread of spiritual consciousness.
With some unfamiliarity, he activated the secret technique he had learned before, transformed his consciousness according to a specific path, and then covered it on the old square-head hammer.
In an instant, a mysterious energy fluctuation containing a mysterious aura suddenly spread out in all directions, centered on the 'square-headed mallet' in his hand.
“It really works!”
When Gao Yuan saw this, his heart suddenly became overjoyed.
Then he separated part of his consciousness and moved towards the old square-head hammer that was gently shaking in his hand, tightly wrapped and covered.
Through the powerful power of perception, the various details of the energy fluctuations diffusing from the surface of the square-head hammer were clearly reflected in Gao Yuan's mind.
"Well, this energy fluctuation is not true essence..."
"It's not the vitality of heaven and earth..."
"Not even spiritual energy and spiritual power..."
"It's strange, I have never felt this mysterious energy breath before!"
"Well, there is no wave of energy conversion. This energy breath is actually released directly from the inside of the Square Head Hammer!"
"No wonder the intelligence I collected before said that these ancient secret treasures are purely consumables. Once the energy stored inside them is exhausted, they will be scrapped!"
"Indeed, if it can only be consumed but not replenished, no matter how much energy these secret treasures contain, they will eventually be exhausted!"
While perceiving various details of the operation of this secret treasure through his outward spiritual consciousness, Gao Yuan analyzed it softly from time to time.
Although according to the information previously obtained, these ancient secret treasures cannot be charged at all.
But he still subconsciously gathered the 'spiritual power' in his body and tried to rush towards the square-head hammer in his hand.
However, no matter how he stimulated his 'spiritual power' to infuse it, there was always a faint force of rejection inside the square-head hammer, which firmly blocked his 'spiritual power'.
Even if he forcibly infused it against the repulsive force, his 'spiritual power' showed no sign of combining with the material of the square-head hammer.
Once he stops infusing it, the 'spiritual energy' forced into the square-head hammer will instantly dissipate on its own.
Despite this, Gao Yuan still had some disbelief in his heart.
Although the 'spiritual power' was not enough, he immediately made various attempts.
Spiritual energy, protective energy, heaven and earth vitality, he even specially found a condensed 'super essence stone' and tried to guide a ray of 'sourceless innate essence' from it.
In just ten minutes, he had poured all the energy carriers he could think of into the square-head mallet in his hand.
However, the result left him disappointed. No energy carrier could be accepted by this square-head hammer secret treasure.
"It really can't be charged at all!"
He sighed softly in his heart and had no choice but to accept the fact before him.
Just when he was about to conduct a small test on the specific power of this square-head hammer secret treasure, something suddenly moved in his heart.
"No, there is an energy carrier that I haven't tested yet!"
After thinking about this, he slightly raised his right hand.
A moment later, a rich blood-colored halo suddenly emerged from the surface of his right hand, rushing straight towards the square-headed mallet in his hand.
Astonishingly, it was the independent energy that he condensed with the help of the practice of "Blood Jade Art" - the 'blood element'!
Just then, an amazing scene happened!
The moment these abnormally viscous 'blood element' energy emerged from Gao Yuan's hand, the surface of this square-head hammer secret treasure suddenly shook slightly.
An invisible force of absorption was generated, instantly absorbing all this ray of 'blood element' energy.
"Huh? Absorbed?"
The scene that happened in front of him immediately stunned Gao Yuan, and then he became interested.
I saw him running the "Blood Jade Technique" with all his strength in order to mobilize more "blood yuan" energy to flow out.
At the same time, with the square-head mallet in his hand as the center, an illusory force of absorption was generated again, instantly swallowing up the 'blood element' energy condensed by Gao Yuan.
At the same time, as more and more 'blood element' energy was devoured, and stimulated by his universal control method just now, the mysterious energy fluctuations erupted inside the Square Head Hammer became slightly stronger than before.
Some.
“It’s really okay!”
The smile on Gao Yuan's face became stronger and stronger. He kept the "Blood Jade Skill" in his body running rapidly while sighing softly.
Under his infusion, the square-headed mallet in his hand was like a bottomless pit, continuously swallowing up all the 'blood element' energy he had condensed.
In just a few minutes, nearly half of the 'blood element' energy reserve in Gao Yuan's body had been swallowed up.
During this process, the energy fluctuations diffused from the inside of the square-headed mallet became increasingly larger, and a faint blood-colored light spread faintly on its surface.
Gao Yuan saw this and was even more surprised.
After a brief hesitation, he quickly took out a bottle of top-quality 'Difu Dan', poured two pills out of it, and quickly swallowed them to replenish the consumption of 'blood yuan' in his body.
As more and more 'blood energy' is swallowed up by this square-head hammer, the blood light flowing on its surface becomes stronger and brighter.
At the same time, the rust stains on its surface, which were originally extremely variegated, also disappeared quietly without realizing it.
And the rust marks of various shades left behind in the endless years of etching are also being restored bit by bit.
"I'm going!"
"Self-healing? Is this even possible?"
Both his consciousness and his sight were closely focused on the high distance of the square-headed mallet. Naturally, he immediately noticed the changes in the surface of the latter.
He was suddenly shocked.
Logically speaking, the ability to self-repair with the help of energy accumulation is by no means something that can be possessed by second-level treasures that compete with the Kaiyuan Realm.
Because this is already the scope of the ‘magic weapon’ ability!
"Could it be that this square-headed mallet secret treasure was actually a third-level 'magic weapon' before it was damaged?"
At this thought, Gao Yuan's heart suddenly moved, but he quickly ruled out this possibility.
Although this square-headed mallet was not refined by him, its various characteristics still cannot escape his divine detection. The latter itself does not meet the basic characteristics of a 'magic weapon'.
At least, there is no 'real seal space' inside it!
In the process of his thoughts turning, Gao Yuan has been condensing the 'blood element' energy to infuse this square-head hammer.
After he swallowed thirteen top-quality 'Difu Pills' one after another, he also continued to pour into the inside of the square-headed mallet an amount of 'blood energy' that was twice the total amount in his body!
Only then did he finally feel the faint force of rejection from inside the square-head mallet in his hand.
At this time, all the traces of wear and tear on the surface of the square-head mallet in his hand had disappeared.
Except for the thumb-sized irregular chip on the mallet head that has not been repaired, the other parts have long been repaired and are as smooth as new.
Under the pressure of a layer of blood boiling like flames, there is a body that projects azure metallic luster.
And when Gao Yuan did not fully activate the Universal Control Technique at this time, the surface of this square-head hammer was already covered with a layer of astonishing energy fluctuations that were more than three times more than the best talisman!
"Even if it is in a damaged state that has not been completely repaired, it can emit power that far exceeds that of the best talisman!"
"It's hard to imagine how powerful this ancient secret treasure would be if it were intact?"
"Is this energy level still considered a second-level item?"
After thinking about this, Gao Yuan muttered a few words to himself in a low voice with some emotion.
Not to mention, can the 'Blue Sky Sword', which he has cultivated to a small stage now, be comparable to it?
Although there was no way to verify it, intuitively speaking, he felt it was a bit confusing.
As his mind turned, Gao Yuan focused on the connection between these ancient secret treasures and the 'Flying Dragon City'.
After all, based on his past experience, secret treasures like square-headed mallets do not seem to be uncommon in 'Flying Dragon City'.
Especially those 'Flying Dragon City Deacons' whose strength is around the late and peak levels of Kaiyuan Realm, basically have this type of ancient secret treasures as standard equipment.
Gao Yuan didn't know if there was a way to charge these ancient secret treasures inside the 'Flying Dragon City'.
But at least one thing is certain, there must be a lot of ancient secret treasures inside.
In addition, what surprised him even more was.
When he tried various energy carriers but could not charge the square-head hammer.
Why can the 'blood element' energy cultivated from the 'blood jade skill' be able to do this?
"Could it be that this unknown skill that I casually named 'Blood Jade Skill' was actually handed down from ancient times?"
After thinking about this, Gao Yuan suddenly remembered a detail.
That is the single recipe of the 'Body Refining Pill' required to practice the 'Blood Jade Technique'. What is listed on it is in addition to the auxiliary materials such as monster pills and spiritual blood.
Several other medicinal materials, such as ‘Magic Grass’ and ‘Pulse Shaping Flower’, are written with the corresponding ancient names such as ‘Magic Grass’ and ‘Biling Flower’!
"Looking at it this way, the 'Blood Jade Technique' is most likely a technique that has been passed down from ancient times!"
"And it happens to be able to power the square-head hammer. Could it be that the two are actually products of the same era?"
The more Gao Yuan thought about it, the more it seemed possible.
