"I've heard people say that there is an appraisal master in your pavilion. He can identify all kinds of rare treasures in the world, and he has never made a mistake. Is it true?" Liu Ming glanced at the unusually spacious shop and asked calmly.
"Oh, so you are looking for Master Chu to appraise materials. However, every item that Master Chu appraises requires three hundred Spirit Stones. Moreover, it is something that I am unable to identify. That is why Master Chu is willing to come out. "The mustached man replied without any surprise.
"So you are also an appraiser!" Liu Ming heard this and looked at the middle-aged man with surprise.
"I wouldn't dare. I have only learned from Master Chu for a short period of time. I can identify most materials. Of course, if it is me who appraises things, it is naturally much cheaper. Usually, it only costs thirty Spirit Stones. If you have something, why don't you let me take a look? If it is not possible, it is not too late to find Master Chu. "The mustached man said with a smile.
"Since it is like this, I have a few items here. I will let you take a look." When Liu Ming heard this, he nodded his head thoughtfully.
"Okay, then please take a seat in the quiet room." The mustached man heard this and was overjoyed.
Although his appraisal fee did not seem high, it was different from selling other items in the shop. The appraisal fee belonged to him.
Thirty Spirit Stones was a considerable amount of income for him.
Thus, after the man gave an order to another worker in the shop, he led Liu Ming to a side hall in the shop.
At this time, Liu Ming flipped his palm and took out a small bottle that was a few inches tall. He placed it on the table and said in a very simple manner:
"This is a bottle of unknown Pure Aura Qi that I obtained by accident. I hope that you can help me appraise it."
"Pure Aura Qi!" The mustached man heard this and was slightly moved.
Even the cheapest Pure Aura Qi was worth tens of thousands of Spirit Stones. He originally thought that Liu Ming was just a normal Loose Cultivator, but it seemed that he had guessed wrong.
The mustached man's mind spun quickly, but his face changed into a bitter smile as he spoke.
"I didn't think that you would want me to appraise such a rare treasure like Pure Aura Qi. If it was a normal material, I would still be able to identify it. However, if it is Pure Aura Qi, I am afraid I am unable to do so. How about this, I will invite Master Chu over. This item worth tens of thousands of yuan was enough for a Grandmaster to personally appraise it. But the cost is naturally … "
"As long as you can appraise the item, the fee will be the same as what you mentioned earlier. There's absolutely no problem. But what if you can't recognize it? "Liu Ming replied with a smile.
The mustached man said without hesitation, "Hehe, if the grandmaster is unable to appraise Fellow Daoist's item, then our pavilion will naturally not accept any spirit stones."
"Okay, then it's settled." Liu Ming nodded without batting an eyelid.
Thus, the mustached man excused himself and left the side hall.
A moment later, a pretty maid walked in and served him a cup of fragrant tea before leaving with her head lowered.
After a short while, a yellow-robed old man with white hair, a wide nose, and round eyes walked in with large strides.
The mustache middle-aged man followed closely behind, and when he saw Liu Ming, he hurriedly introduced.
"Let me introduce you, this is Master Chu!"
"This is the Pure Aura Qi that you wanted me to appraise." The yellow-robed elder did not waste any words. His gaze swept across the small bottle on the table and calmly asked.
"Not bad, thank you for your trouble this time." Liu Ming stood up and bowed slightly.
The yellow-robed elder nodded his head and with a wave of his hand, a "sou" sound was heard as the small bottle was sucked into his hand.
This Master Chu's Fa Li was not weak and he was also a Middle Spirit Apostle.
Master Chu first touched the small bottle in his hand and made a sign with one hand.
"Pu!" A white light barrier that was around a foot in size appeared out of thin air, enveloping the small bottle within it.
At this time, the elder used a finger to point at the small bottle. The lid immediately flew off and a few black threads flew out.
Every thread was abnormally thin and crystal clear. They slowly flew around the small bottle.
Master Chu squinted his eyes and used an unknown technique. A green light flashed in his eyes and with a movement of two fingers, he caught one of the black threads and pulled it out of the light barrier. He put it under his nose and sniffed it before putting it back.
"Dry Aura Qi, the attribute is Yin. After condensing the Aura Qi into Qi, it can make the body cold and dry, thus greatly increasing one's defense. It also has a certain amplification effect against Yin type spells. However, it is greatly countered by Yang type spells and Fire type spells. It can be classified as a low tier Pure Aura Qi." The yellow-robed elder shook the small bottle and absorbed all the black threads back into it.
"So it is Dry Aura Qi, thank you Master." Hearing this, Liu Ming revealed a thoughtful expression.
The attribute of the Pure Aura Qi that the elder said was similar to what Liu Ming had expected.
"Other than this Pure Aura Qi, is there anything else that you want me to appraise?" The elder threw the small bottle back to Liu Ming and asked indifferently. He did not seem to care too much about the low tier Pure Aura Qi in his hand.
"Master Chu's reputation is well deserved. I still have two materials that I need to appraise. However, one of them is too shocking. I'm afraid this place is not suitable for you to see. "Liu Ming took the small bottle and nodded his head in satisfaction. However, he changed his tone and said.
"It is not suitable to be displayed here. I see. Come with me. There is a place in the pavilion that has been set up with restrictions. It is able to conceal any aura and withstand the power of any treasure that is leaked. Shopkeeper Meng, open the treasure testing room. "Master Chu was startled at first, but he immediately smiled and instructed the mustached man.
"Yes. Friend, please follow me. "Shopkeeper Meng heard this and nodded his head.
Hearing this, Liu Ming naturally did not have any objections. He immediately stood up and followed the two out of the side hall. After passing through a small room, they walked in front of a stone door that was covered with white inscriptions.
The mustached man immediately formed a sign with one hand and pointed in the air. The stone door slowly opened.
The three of them walked in one after the other.
Liu Ming scanned the interior and discovered that it was only a small stone room that was only a few feet wide. Other than a pure white round table in the middle of the room, there was nothing else. However, the floor and the stone walls in all directions were impressively engraved with spirit inscriptions.
Liu Ming took a closer look at these spirit inscriptions, and his heart relaxed.
Although there were many spirit inscriptions, they were the most common types of simple restrictions. They did not have the ability to trap or kill enemies.
In this way, he did not need to worry that the people of the Wan Lian Pavilion would use the restrictions to do anything harmful to him.
"Friend, what do you think about this place? What kind of restrictions do you need? I can activate them one by one." The yellow-robed elder glanced at Liu Ming and said with a smile that was not a smile.
"Forget about the others. I just hope that the ground will be more solid." Liu Ming lifted his foot and stepped on the green stone floor. His expression did not change as he said this.
"Strengthening the ground is naturally not a problem." The yellow-robed elder was a little surprised. He then formed a sign with one hand and a portion of the spirit inscriptions on the ground lit up and a layer of crystal white light appeared.
However, when Liu Ming saw this, he shook his head. He took out a glyph from his sleeve and threw it to the ground.
"Pu!"
The moment the glyph touched the ground, it exploded. Countless yellow inscriptions gushed out from it and disappeared into the ground in a flash.
In the next moment, the entire floor of the stone room was suddenly filled with a pale yellow light.
When Shopkeeper Meng and Master Chu saw this, they looked at each other and saw a trace of astonishment in each other's eyes.
They could naturally see that these yellow spirit inscriptions were used to strengthen the ground.
At this time, Liu Ming silently fumbled in his sleeves for a while before shaking his sleeves and a white cloud rolled out from it.
"Hong!" A loud sound rang out and the entire stone room shook.
A pale silver cauldron appeared in a flash and landed heavily on the ground. As a result, the three legs of the cauldron sank deep into the ground, causing the green stones nearby to shatter.
Even though the yellow-robed elder and Shopkeeper Meng had already guessed what was going on, when they saw this scene, they could not help but jump in fright. They both stared at the silver cauldron in a daze.
"Could it be that you want me to appraise this cauldron?" Master Chu looked at the silver cauldron and was somewhat surprised.
"Of course not. Even though this cauldron is a treasure, it cannot be compared to the item inside. "Liu Ming's eyes flashed as he said lightly.
"The item inside?" Hearing this, Master Chu's expression changed. He immediately took a few steps forward and walked to the side of the cauldron. He stretched his head and looked inside.
"This is …" When the elder saw the black liquid in the center of the cauldron, his face immediately revealed an expression of shock.
… …
Half an hour later, when Liu Ming walked out of the Wan Lian Pavilion, Shopkeeper Meng followed closely behind him. Shopkeeper Meng's mouth did not stop begging:
"Fellow, are you really not going to consider selling these two items to the Wan Lian Pavilion? As long as you agree to sell, the price can be negotiated and will definitely satisfy you."
"Shopkeeper Meng, I am only here to appraise the materials. These two items are of great use to me and I will not sell them to anyone else. "Liu Ming said expressionlessly before floating away.
The mustached man looked at Liu Ming's disappearing figure and his face could not help but have an expression of pity for wasting a heavenly treasure.
When Shopkeeper Meng returned to the side hall of the shop, Master Chu was sitting on a chair and seemed to be thinking about something.
"Looking at you, that person just now definitely did not sell the items." The yellow-robed elder said lightly.
"That's right. That person indeed did not have any intentions of selling. What a pity. For such a rare material to be in the hands of a Spirit Apostle is too much of a waste. If our pavilion could obtain it and place it in the auction, I'm afraid that even some of the old Crystal Level monsters would be tempted. "Shopkeeper Meng replied with a bitter smile.
