Chapter 75 Ji Family's Top-Tier Stone Archway
The lake surface rippled with blue waves.
The bamboo raft moved through the water.
Li Xian stood with his hands behind his back on the raft, his gaze passing over the water.
The island in the middle of the lake is not large, only a few hundred feet in circumference, but it has a fairy-like atmosphere.
Exotic flowers bloom.
Exotic grasses covered the ground.
The spring gurgles and the water is misty.
This is the Ji family's top-ranking stone garden.
According to the ironclad rules of major sacred stone gardens, the top-tier stone gardens are strictly off-limits to all unauthorized personnel except those who are buying stones for gambling.
But rules are always made for the weak.
"Whoosh! Whoosh!"
Several long rainbows pierced the sky.
They didn't travel by water at all, but crossed the lake directly from the shore and landed on the island in the middle of the lake.
Those were several elderly men with white hair.
The Ji family guards didn't even draw their swords; instead, they all bowed in salute.
There's no way to stop it.
These old guys.
They are not living fossils from major holy sites.
He was the infamous rogue cultivator.
If you pick any one of them, their seniority is incredibly high.
Even if the Holy Lord of the Ji family were to come in person, he would still have to be politely offered a cup of tea.
not to mention.
Within those rainbows.
There were clearly two of their own ancestors among them.
When our ancestors set an example by breaking the rules, those below could only pretend not to see it.
Older generations were able to break through based on their cultivation.
The young talents on the shore could only watch helplessly.
"Sister Biyue————"
A soft, penetrating voice rang out.
An Miaoyi was dressed in white, her beauty surpassing even the snow.
With a light veil covering her face, she moved gracefully to Ji Biyue's side.
Her eyes, clear as autumn water, held a hint of hope: "Such an earth-shattering gamble is a once-in-a-century event. Could you possibly make an exception and let Miaoyi go? She can just observe from afar on the island, without disturbing her."
That "sister" was uttered in a soft, sweet voice.
Upon hearing this, the male cultivator next to him felt as if he had lost three pounds.
Yao Yuekong closed her folding fan and stepped forward, saying, "Fairy Ji, we came with Brother Li. Tianyao Baoque also contributed to this bet, so we should come to the island to witness it."
"Please, Fairy Ji, be lenient."
Prince Xia Yiming of the Great Xia Dynasty bowed.
Behind him.
Little nun Xia Yilin peeked out her smooth little head.
Waving her small fists, she huffed and puffed, "He still owes me a certain amount of resources! I'm going to keep an eye on him. What if he loses it all and runs away? I'm going to get it back!"
That fierce look made her all the more charming and adorable.
Ji Biyue stood on the shore.
Her emerald green dress swayed gently in the breeze.
A hint of smugness flashed in his eyes.
Although she was one of the four moons of the Ji family.
But under the dazzling light of Ji Haoyue and her brother, when would they ever receive such star-like treatment on ordinary days?
An Miaoyi, the third most beautiful woman in the Eastern Wilderness, calls her "elder sister".
The young master of the Heavenly Demon Palace and the prince of the Great Xia Dynasty repeatedly addressed her as "fairy," pleading with her in a humble and subservient manner.
The feeling of having great power and controlling the fate of top talents is truly intoxicating.
"Since all of you holy sons and fairies have such an interest—"
Ji Biyue chuckled, her eyes sparkling: "The Ji family is not an unreasonable and rigid place. Everyone, please board the ship."
She waved her hand.
They've been allowed to pass.
Of course, only top figures at the level of holy sons and holy daughters were allowed to pass.
As for those ordinary, mere bystanders among the cultivators?
Just stay on the shore and enjoy the breeze.
The island in the middle of the lake.
Li Xian stepped onto the soft grass.
The hustle and bustle of the shore was gone, replaced only by the rustling sound of falling petals.
The older generation of powerful figures have long since scattered beneath ancient trees and beside springs.
They gathered together in twos and threes.
His gaze, however, seemed to fall on Li Xian, whether intentionally or unintentionally.
Tuoba Chang followed closely behind and landed on the island.
He appeared somewhat impatient, and his eyes were bloodshot.
An IOU for one million jin of raw materials, the humiliation of losing fifteen games.
This put a lot of pressure on him, so he pinned his hopes on the last remaining top-tier stone garden.
"Choose three pieces each," Tuoba Chang said in a low voice. "Li Xian, you can't possibly beat me!"
Li Xian ignored him.
The Yuantian Remnant Technique is activated.
Beneath the ancient dragon-scale tree.
Intertwined with green vines.
Bottom of the Spirit Spring Pool —
Each piece of Originium, with its unique shape, exudes a different aura.
The aura of the primordial ancient mine.
The stones in Ji Family's Tianzihao Stone Garden.
Almost all of them were mined from the Primordial Ancient Mine.
Each piece has an amazing origin.
Each piece can yield an unparalleled treasure, or it might yield nothing at all.
At this moment, An Miaoyi, Yao Yuekong, Xia Yiming, Xia Yilin, and the various holy sons and daughters landed on the island one after another.
Ji Biyue led the way.
Surrounded by stars, her smile was radiant.
"Come, come, please, you two—"
'
The manager of the Ji family stone archway appeared.
With a forced smile, he led Li Xian and Tuoba Chang deeper into the stone garden.
The strange rocks unfolded before my eyes.
"Gentlemen, the Heavenly Grade Stone Garden contains a total of 367 stones, priced from 10,000 to 500,000 jin." The manager handed over a jade booklet. "Please choose for yourselves."
Finally, he added pitifully, "Please, both of you, have mercy."
The crowd was enthusiastic.
It is not subject to individual will.
Those old monsters crowded forward one by one.
"Young friend Li, I suggest you take a look at that dragon head stone. The stone skin is surrounded by dragon energy, and it is most likely a top-quality stone." A withered old man pointed to the dark blue boulder not far away.
"No, no, no, I think that blood-patterned stone is better." Another white-haired old woman shook her head.
"None of those are correct. The most likely source of divine energy is that polished sacred stone!"
They all talked at once.
Stick to one word.
It's less of a recommendation and more of an old monster from various holy sites using the guise of "recommendation" to choose the stones he wants to mine.
Li Xian remained calm and thanked them one by one.
Tuoba Chang made a move.
He walked toward the dragon head stone that was the most talked-about piece of stone.
Dragon Head Stone.
It is about ten feet tall.
It was entirely bluish-black.
The stone surface faintly reveals dragon scale patterns.
Its top is slightly raised, resembling a dragon's head, exuding an extraordinary aura.
The most crucial thing is—
A faint golden aura swirled on the stone surface.
This is not the source energy.
It is dragon energy.
Tuoba Chang took a deep breath, and his right hand shone with a brilliant crimson-gold light.
Crimson Gold Divine Hand!
The moment his palm touched the dragon head stone.
His entire hand turned into a brilliant reddish-gold color.
Golden patterns appeared on the fingertips, and streaks of golden light seeped into the depths of the stone along the stone's veins.
Then, he made a sweeping motion in the air with his left hand—
hum!
A golden roulette wheel appeared out of thin air.
Genten Treasure Wheel!
The golden wheel, about three feet in diameter, slowly rotated.
The internal energy of the Dragon Head Stone is peeled away layer by layer, amplified, and projected into the surrounding air.
A phantom image of a true dragon shot into the sky!
The dragon's shadow was about two zhang long. Although it was illusory, its whiskers fluttered and its scales shimmered, and its deep roar echoed across the island.
"A phantom of a true dragon!"
"A dragon's image is sealed inside the Dragon Head Stone!"
"Incredible! This stone is likely to yield an unparalleled treasure!"
The old monsters watching were moved.
Even figures who lived for nearly a thousand years.
It is also rare to see the appearance of a real dragon during jade gambling.
Tuoba Chang's lips curled up, and the pent-up frustration from fifteen consecutive losses was released slightly at this moment.
He turned his head and looked at Li Xian.
"I want this dragon head stone."
He bought the jade plaque.
The dragon head stone was selected.
Then, looking down at Li Xian, he slowly and deliberately said—
"That so-called divine eye of yours—it probably won't work very well in the Heavenly Stone Garden, will it?"
It was full of sarcasm.
The stones used in Tianzihao Stone Garden are completely different from those outside.
Constantly immersed in the aura of the Primordial Ancient Mine, and suppressed by the Daoist charm of the naturally formed divine object (the Immortal Cauldron), the source techniques are completely unable to see through it.
That's exactly what Tuoba Chang was betting on.
The eighteen stone gardens outside could be easily crushed by Li Xian's divine eyes.
But when it came to the Heavenly Rank—
We're all like blind men touching an elephant.
On the track of "blind men touching an elephant".
The Stone Appraisal Manual, accumulated over tens of thousands of years by the Yuanwang family, is their true trump card.
"Dragon Head Stone 1/2"
Li Xian glanced at the giant rock that looked up at the sky.
I glanced once more at the gradually dissipating phantom of the true dragon.
His gaze was calm.
It is true that the Dragon Head Stone contains dragon energy.
But there was only one wisp of dragon energy.
To be precise, it was a very faint trace of residual dragon energy.
Originating from the lingering essence of the dragon vein deep within the ancient Taichu mine, it has seeped into the stone skin over tens of thousands of years, gathering without dispersing.
Value, huh?
It is considered a rare treasure for ordinary cultivators.
But in the gambling games at Tianzihao Stone Garden, this little bit of stuff isn't even an appetizer.
But he didn't say it.
"Congratulations, young master Tuoba," Li Xian said calmly.
"Tuoba!" Tuoba Chang gritted his teeth.
"Oh, a mop."
