It was at this moment that a voice suddenly appeared in An Zheng's mind.
"Unlock the rank, and you can use the third Blood Pearl. The first is a divine artifact of the peak Golden-Rank, called the Twin Twin Life Trees."
An Zheng was startled, what was going on?
He couldn't even understand it, and Du Shoushou was even more clueless, because of course he wouldn't be able to hear the voice in An Zheng's mind.
At this time, it was as if a flower scroll was opened in An Zheng's mind, the scroll slowly opened, revealing three pictures inside. The first painting was a blurry picture of a piece of clothing. It was hard to tell what it was, but from the outline, it seemed more like an armor. Even though it was vague, it gave off an incomparably domineering aura. The armor seemed a bit crude, but it had the aura of a king looking down on the world.
There were eight shining pieces on the armor.
An Zheng suddenly realized, this was the Holy Fish Scale. It was rumored that the Holy Fish s' scales were made up of one hundred and eight pieces of Holy Fish Scale, possessing unrivaled abilities. It was only a legend in the end. An Zheng clearly knew that at that time, every one of the two hundred and one Purple-Rank Divine Artifact unleashed their full strength. Therefore, it was impossible for a single Purple-Rank Divine Artifact to truly exist, a possibility that surpassed other Purple-Rank Divine Artifact.
The first picture on the scroll was that of a Holy Fish Scale. Beside the picture, there were two domineering red words written on it.
reverse scale
Reverse scale?
An Zheng was slightly startled, thinking that the Holy Fish's scales were actually called reverse scales.
Then, An Zheng suddenly understood. This was what was stored inside the first lit bead of the Blood Pearl Bracelet. Perhaps it was because the reverse scale's grade was too high, so it monopolized a bead. The Blood Pearl Bracelet was related to him by blood, so it had the ability to analyze and understand the magical equipment stored within. This was probably the new ability of the Blood Pearl Bracelet, because the twin trees had caused the Blood Pearl Bracelet to level up.
The second picture was of a medicinal field, so An Zheng was even more sure that this was showing him the use of a Blood Pearl Bracelet. In the first bead was the reverse scale, and in the second was the herb field. However, there was nothing special about the previous herb fields. Now, from the second picture, all the herbs in the herb fields were white. However, there were all sorts of medicinal herbs in those fields, so why did the highest, which even had Golden-Rank, become white?
It was a jade-white, red-gold, purple color. This was the classification of grade. Now that the herbs were white, that meant they were white?
An Zheng could not help but smile bitterly, he did not know if this levelling up was a progress or a drawback. Many of the Red Rank medicinal herbs seemed to have lost one grade to the White Rank.
Immediately after, An Zheng saw a few words beside the medicinal field. At the very top were three slightly larger words, "Blood and Qi Pond". The little word on the side seemed to have been specially written for An Zheng to explain to him. The general content was that, because the Blood Pearl Bracelet had activated a new ability, the grade was restarted and it was classified as a White grade ability. Thus, all of the medicinal plants had turned into White-rank medicinal plants. However, because of the level difference, the medicinal properties of the herbs were more interlinked, making them easier to absorb and use. Furthermore, these medicinal herbs would be fixed in place and could only be filled in, unable to be taken out from within.
Until now, An Zheng had not used his medicinal field a few times to replenish his blood essence, so he didn't mind it much. He only felt sorry for Qu Liuxi and couldn't take out any more medicinal herbs from the medicinal field.
The third picture was of two golden saplings with purple edges. The words beside it were 'Twin Twins' Tree '. An Zheng looked carefully and finally understood what the ability of the Twin Life Trees was. It was no wonder they could be classified as purple Golden-Rank.
Something belonging to the Purple Golden-Rank, was only a hair's breadth away from the Purple-Rank. For example, Du Shoushou's Triton s and his stone armor all belonged to Zi Ling. Triton s were Fallen Purple-Rank, if repaired well in the future, they could still return to the Purple-Rank. As for the Stone Armour, it was a companion of the stone essence. The stone essence was a Purple-Rank demon beast, and the companion belonged to the purple Golden-Rank. He also didn't know if he could use some other method to forge them back into the Purple-Rank in the future.
The two twin trees had two greatest uses. First, to help people transfer their cultivation. When An Zheng saw this, he suddenly understood. The protector of the previous generation of Gao Family, who was also the husband of the old lady, used the Twin Living Trees to pass his cultivation down to Gao Yuan Tree before he died. In the end, because of some things that he had done unduly or because of some mistake, Gao Yuan Tree had suffered serious injuries and could no longer be the support of the Gao Family.
It was because of this that the old lady became more twisted. And she wasn't willing to give up on the tree, so she hoped that one day she would be able to help him recover his strength. Gao Yuan Tree's childhood was filled with fear for her. She was simply a lifelong nightmare for Gao Yuan Tree.
This ability was completely meaningless to An Zheng.
The second ability was transformation, which could also be called teleportation. The two trees shared the same origin, so if they were set up, they could freely travel to two different locations. This function was so powerful that it did not make sense, nor did it make sense. Compared to the scroll that Zhuang Feifei gave to the red-furred nation, it was much stronger. After all, the number of times the scroll could be used was limited, and the Two Lives Life Tree could be used to an unlimited degree. Of course, when An Zheng's strength did not reach the realm, they could not display the strongest power.
With An Zheng's current strength level, he could teleport within a hundred meters.
An Zheng thought for a while. If he could recover to the peak of the Lower Celestial Stage, then the teleportation distance would be terrifyingly far. Maybe he could teleport people from the State of Yan to the Da Xi Empire.
An Zheng thought as he looked at the scroll, thinking that he was only able to raise the Blood Pearl level to White grade. Grade ability had nothing to do with class attribute, Purple-Rank Divine Artifact s were Purple-Rank. Because An Zheng's strength was currently not high enough, he could only open his ability up to the level of White grade.
The Blood Pearl Bracelet had a total of thirteen pearls, and had only opened three of them.
An Zheng was thinking about all this and felt that someone was shaking him. He saw that Du Shoushou was holding onto his shoulder with both his hands and shaking him.
"What's wrong?"
An Zheng subconsciously asked.
Seeing that An Zheng had recovered, Du Shoushou heaved a sigh of relief: "I thought you were fine, but you suddenly froze there, I called out to you for a while but there was no reaction. "The two saplings flew onto your hand and disappeared, leaving you in a daze."
An Zheng laughed: It's nothing, I just pierced my finger, and that thing flew into my bracelet.
Du Shoushou said: "Let's go, this place is too strange. If I don't leave now, I'm afraid a few more skeletons will fly out and dance. "
An Zheng acknowledged his presence. When he looked at the book on the table again, the strange thing was that the book had disappeared. An Zheng thought that he was seeing things. He rubbed his eyes and looked again, but there was nothing there.
Du Shoushou said: "Stop looking, just now, you suddenly disappeared without a trace. You did not react even after I told you for a long time, I thought you were scared."
An Zheng carried Du Shoushou and walked out: "Let's go take a look and see if there are any other treasures that we missed out. The Gao Family is a big fa
mily, if we don't see anything that we left behind, it would be a crime."
Du Shoushou nodded his head, "If we don't kill that demon-like old lady, that would be our real sin!"
Chapter 244 - Waterproof Underwear
An Zheng and Du Shoushou chatted as they walked, god knows how many more stories were hidden in the Gao Family's courtyard. But to a family like the Gao Family, every story seemed so grim and cruel. There were thousands of corpses buried under the big yard in front of him, and behind them was the sadness of the tall trees in the small yard. Therefore, their hearts were heavy, so heavy that they couldn't even breathe.
Pushing open the door of the old lady's room, An Zheng and Du Shoushou looked in and saw that it was as simple and crude as it was. This old mistress had affected the Gao family for a hundred years. On the surface, she only pretended to be humble in order to show it to the imperial government.
"I don't believe that, that old fogey is so venomous that no one can compare to him, he doesn't have any tricks up his sleeve."
Du Shoushou said as he walked, "It's impossible for the Gao Family to be defeated so quickly. She might have hidden countless of things to prepare to make a comeback."
An Zheng said, "This time's matter is too big, to the point where even the Board of Justice and the Fanggu did not dare to be careless. After all, it had already spread out that the Gao Family actually dared to rebel and attack the Tiantong Palace on a large scale. Even if the empress dowager could cover the sky with one hand, the people would not dare to ignore her. Furthermore, the people of the Gao Family had already hated the people of Fanggu since they had ruled over it for so many years. So this time, the Ministry of Justice and the Fanggu, as well as the army had been investigating the situation in the city, there was no news about them at all … I suspect that the Gao Clan is not as strong as everyone guessed. "
Du Shoushou asked: "Why?"
An Zheng explained, "The hidden expert of the previous generation from the Gao Family, the true pillar, which is the old man's husband, is already dead. As for the Gao Yuan Tree, because there was a problem when it was receiving power, all these years, the experts under the Gao Family's command had only been deliberately fabricated. And if the Gao Clan really did take away a lot of manpower and resources, it was impossible that they didn't have any clues at all. The more he took away, the more things he leaked out. "Right now, all sorts of forces are hunting down the Gao family, including the empress dowager and the imperial court officials' alliance. As long as any traces of them are leaked, the Gao family won't be able to escape."
"The fact that there's been no news about it doesn't necessarily mean that the Gao Clan has hidden it well. Perhaps that old fellow no longer has any help and is just hiding it somewhere unknown. Only herself, plus a few trusted aides. "
Du Shoushou thought about it, that was true. Whether it was the empress dowager, the alliance of ministers, or the Swallow King, they all had the same attitude towards the Gao Family … They were completely annihilated. If there were a lot of people hiding in the Gao Family, they wouldn't have been able to find all of them.
"Good news!"
Du Shoushou laughed: "That old fellow is the only one left. Don't let fat grandpa find her, if you find her, burn her to ashes. "
But An Zheng was thinking about something else: "The Gao Family must have taken a lot of things away, if my guess just now was right, that old man doesn't dare to take too many things away, the less people there are, the safer he would be. Therefore, there must be a lot of undiscovered treasures in this mansion. The things that the Gao Clan hid must be as numerous as the hairs on a cow. Last time I said I would find you a suitable weapon, and we found the Triton. It is a Fallen Purple-Rank, if you can find something suitable for you to repair, Oldman Huo might be able to help you return. "
As he walked, he thought of Du Shoushou's armor. "Although the companion beasts of the Stone Essence are strong, they are after all strong and not tough enough. Under normal circumstances, there wouldn't be any problems, but once you meet a truly strong opponent, cracks will likely appear. "
An Zheng hugged his good old man and sighed: "Legend has it that the Eye of Nine Incarnations is endlessly greedy. As long as it's a place with treasures and a large tomb, the Eye of Nine Incarnations would never let it go. Furthermore, Eye of Nine Incarnations needed to devour all types of treasures. As long as they obtained all the attributes, they could evolve and start reincarnation. Although our good old man also likes to eat … However, they could only gnaw on two Demonic Beast Cores or two spirit stones at most. Did you say that you went retarded when you were reincarnated? "
good old man lazily raised his head and looked at An Zheng as if he was looking at an idiot. The meaning in his eyes was, if it wasn't for me pointing at you, I would have already beaten you up.
Du Shoushou laughed: "good old man, I am not creating trouble. Anyway, if he says I'm lazy or something, I can't stand it. No matter what, you are still a Eye of Nine Incarnations, so just give us a direction to look for you. If you really find a treasure, I'll roast two lambs for you tonight. "
good old man immediately raised his head, as if he had understood something, and the stars in his eyes started to swirl.
An Zheng sighed: "You're a cat, a cat … Furthermore, you're still young, why are you eating with such a big waist! "
good old man simply ignored him, the stars in his eyes revolving faster and faster.
Du Shoushou said in all seriousness: "good old man's eyes, I am not unfamiliar with them. One is it, the other is Gu Qianye … "
An Zheng thought about how Gu Qianye's eyes would immediately light up when she smelled delicious food, and couldn't help but laugh out loud. Du Shoushou laughed: "Say, no matter what, she is still the Patriarch of the Old Hunters, so she is equivalent to a Swallow King … "How come she's not reserved at all?"
An Zheng: "You only dare to say that behind the back and in front of everyone, she really dares to strip off your Golden-Rank underwear."
Du Shoushou, "Scram …"
An Zheng: "But to be honest, fat grandpa is really relaxed. Looking at both ancient and modern times, there was not a single person who walked around in Golden-Rank and underwear all day. I'm curious about one thing … Are you going to grind it? "
"Get lost."
"Just tell me if you're going to grind it or not!"
"A little bit …"
An Zheng sighed: "Everyone said that they would sharpen their spears before the battle, if not quickly, it would be over..."
Du Shoushou said: "I don't fucking know you, go away."
At this moment, he saw the good old man in his embrace, who seemed to be holding onto something, very casually lift up its little claws and point in a certain direction, then shrink back into An Zheng's embrace. An Zheng carried it as he walked. "We've already left that old fellow's room, where is good old man pointing to?"
After walking for a few dozen meters, there was a small garden at the back of the room. It was already late autumn, so the garden was rather desolate. Aside from a small pond with a few remaining lotus flowers, the rest of the place did not have any sign of life. It was as if it was already in the middle of winter.
Walking to the side of the small pond, good old man once again casually raised his little claw, made a gesture of "stop", and then pointed towards the pond.
"Looks like there's something in this pond."
An Zheng passed the good old man over to Du Shoushou: "I'll go take a look."
Du Shoushou: "I'll go."
An Zheng: "I remember you liking to swim in the water. When I was young, I was beaten up by your father when I swam underwater."
Du Shoushou shrugged his shoulders and began to take off his clothes. At the end, the only thing left on his body was a pair of shiny golden underpants. He proudly said, "In this world, it is not easy for ordinary cultivators to obtain a red-rank item. However, even fat grandpa's underwear belongs to Golden-Rank. If you don't mention the
fact that Golden-Rank is priceless, do you believe that this thing can hide from water? "
An Zheng: "The heck... It's rare for me to swear, but this thing is too magical. Is it really good at storing urine and not letting it leak out? Is it wet? "
Du Shoushou's face darkened, "Get lost..."
He took a deep breath, then jumped up and plunged downwards.
Peng!
Then, Du Shoushou stood up while rubbing his face. His face was about to swell from the impact, "F * ck … Not even half a meter deep. "It's still a big stone board down there. My head is about to knock into my stomach."
He squatted down and fumbled in the pool for a moment, then his eyes lit up.
Du Shoushou grabbed something from under the pool of water and forcefully lifted it up. After the kala-ka sound, a very heavy chain was lifted out of the water by him. The end of the ring he held in his hand was an old one. Du Shoushou smiled at An Zheng complacently with the iron ring in his hand: "See this ring? Was it big? fat grandpa's spear is larger than a fist, but do you believe that it will not enter? "
An Zheng: "Why did you fuck it …"
Du Shoushou: "Would you die if you had more dignity?"
An Zheng said, "I look respectable in front of outsiders."
Du Shoushou pulled upwards, "Let me see how long it is."
An Zheng: "Wait!"
But before he finished shouting, Du Shoushou had already pulled him up. The iron chain was pulled up by him, and there was a cracking sound from below. Soon after, all of the water in the pool suddenly started dripping down. If An Zheng didn't quickly pull Du Shoushou back, Du Shoushou would have fallen as well.
When the water ran out, An Zheng and Du Shoushou realized that there was a flip underneath. Du Shoushou had just pulled up the iron chain and opened the flip. The water in the pool was still flowing down, but he didn't know how deep it went. An Zheng summoned a set of Holy Fish Scale s from the Blood Pearl s space, its scales emitting a gentle white light. An Zheng stretched out his hand, and the scale flew down. An Zheng pulled Du Shoushou, and the two of them followed behind Scaled Beast.
