Chapter 3843: Touch, Smell, Hear and See (Revision)
that cried like a baby, Jiang Yun was already certain—This building they call the Strange Tower, is the sacred relic of the ginger clan, a mirage!As for that ancient monster, it was not a mere rumor b...Jiang Yun finally decided to bet with Su Qianchen.
Although such a gamble didn't give him any advantage, Su Qianchen didn't have an advantage either.
Don't say that Su Qianchen is just the number one gemologist, even if he can see inside a blood-sealed stone, it's only putting them on the same starting line. Both sides are just betting on luck.
Besides, as Jiang Yun himself said, he truly didn't care about the Emperor Origin Stone.
If I lost, then I lost.
Moreover, even if he loses today, it doesn't mean he has no chance of making a comeback.
Anyway, the five shops in these four towns that sell blood-sealed stones won't close. As long as he gives himself some time, he can continue to search those five shops thoroughly.
With bloodline arts, he could still obtain a large number of Imperial Source Stones in a short period of time!
In addition, Ginger Cloud also had suspicions about this Su Qianchen.
Ginger Cloud felt a strange sense that Su Qianchen's appearance here was not merely to help Xuan Yi, but rather seemed to be specifically for her!
Before today, he had never even heard of Su Qianchen's name. As the other party's first-rank appraiser, why would they be interested in him
Therefore, since Su Qianchen proposed this wagering method, Jiang Yun didn't mind playing along!
"Good!" Su Qianchen smiled faintly. "Senior Brother Xuen Yuan is indeed a straightforward person. Then let's get started now!"
As for the finishing touch, let's decide after we've chosen the blood-sealed stone, shall we
Jiang Yun said indifferently, "Okay, let's select the blood sealing stone. Do we need to set a time limit We can't keep selecting forever, right!"
Su Qianchen nodded and said, "Not bad, how about half an hour"
Okay!
As Gingercloud's voice faded, Su Qianchen had already turned and walked towards a piece of blood-sealed stone.
Ginger Cloud naturally didn't linger any longer. Choosing the opposite direction of Su Qianchen, she walked towards another piece of blood-sealed stone.
At this time, although nearly 10,000 cultivators followed the two to the ninth-floor hall, they all tacitly gathered at the entrance without anyone casually entering the hall, completely giving the hall to Jiang Yun and Su Qianchen.
Gu Linxu and Xuan Yi, of course, followed behind Jiang Yun and Su Qianchen respectively.
Especially Gu Linxu, he truly wanted to help Jiang Yun, so he secretly sent a voice transmission to Jiang Yun: "Generally speaking, the larger the size of a blood-sealed stone, the greater the probability that it contains something."
But if you want to make good things, then you also have to judge them based on their surface texture, color, and even the bumps of the grains.
Besides, every shop selling blood-sealed stones knows this as well. So sometimes they deliberately produce some blood-sealed stones that meet the standard to confuse people.
For example, they would use chisels to artificially carve patterns onto the surface of bloodstone, or polish it smooth.
If you're not careful, you could easily be deceived, so be sure to look closely.
Although Gu Linxu's words didn't really help Jiang Yun much, Jiang Yun knew he meant well, so she just nodded along as she listened.
Jiang Yun came to a basin-sized blood seal stone, fixed his gaze on it, and reached out to grab it.
Bloodstone's hardness is extremely high. There is no way to damage it except with a specially made cutting tool, so it can be touched by hand.
However, each store has its own rules.
Ji Shi Xuan's Blood Sealing Stone is hidden inside a crystal box. Only when you truly intend to buy it can you open the box and touch it with your hand.
And the blood stone here, it is simply placed right there, within reach.
Diagnosing bloodstone, just like a doctor examining a patient, can be done in four different ways: observation, listening, touching, and inquiring.
The "touch" in here, naturally refers to using your hand to touch and feel the surface of the blood-sealed stone, as well as its weight, etc.
And "kō" involves tapping the xue-fēng shí (blood sealing stone) and listening to the sound it emits to determine its quality.
Each gemologist has different strengths. Some are skilled at looking, while others excel at touching and feeling.
The Blood Sealing Stone itself, indeed, also has levels of quality.
While Ginger Cloud was using his bloodline technique and sealing technique, the time it took could determine the grade of the Blood Seal Stone.
A low-grade Blood Sealing Stone, he could now see through it in about ten breaths.
The longer the time spent, the higher the grade of blood sealing stone.
However, the high or low grade of these items cannot be used as a standard to judge the quality of the contents within the Blood Sealing Stone. It can only indicate the strength of the Emperor's blood condensed within the Blood Sealing Stone and the strength of the seal imposed upon it!
This blood-sealed stone, Jiang Yun spent over a hundred breaths of time before finally breaking the seal.
However, inside it contained only a vine, barely half a foot long.
Gingeryun remembered, this was called Rootless Vine, worth about only a few thousand Imperial Source Stones.
And the price of this blood-sealing stone is 500,000 Emperor Origin Stones!
This made Jiang Yun can't help but sigh. If someone really spent a lot of money to buy this blood-sealed stone, then after cutting it open, they would probably really want to die.
Jiang Yun retracted his gaze and continued walking towards the second Blood Sealing Stone.
And Gu Linxu glanced at this blood-sealed stone the size of a basin, wanting to tell Jiang Yun that there was probably something good inside, but he ultimately didn't say anything.
This is a battle of wits between Jiang Yun and Su Qianchen. If Jiang Yun doesn't ask voluntarily, he can't speak up, lest it influence Jiang Yun's judgment.
Then again, Su Qianchen was still looking at the first Blood Sealing Stone.
Unlike Jiang Yun who only observed with his eyes and touch, his fingers continuously tapped the blood-sealed stone lightly at an extremely fast speed, like a butterfly flitting through flowers, making it difficult for most people to see his movements.
After a short while, Su Qianchen also put down the blood-sealing stone in his hand and continued to the next blood-sealing stone.
Thus, within the vast hall of nine stories, Jiang Yun's Su Qianchen and their group continuously traversed through the darkness.
No one spoke, only the occasional sound of hammering on the blood-sealed stone could be heard.
As half an hour was about to pass, Su Qianchen finally made the choice first. He took a blood-sealed stone and returned to his original position, waiting peacefully for Jiang Yun.
At this time, Gu Linxu and the others were increasingly nervous because Jiang Yun was obviously still undecided and was still selecting blood-sealing stones.
At this moment, Gingercloud's heart was also a little uncertain.
Although he had already read through ten Blood Sealing Stones, the most valuable one was only a damaged Imperial Artifact. However, the power it contained was far inferior to the axe he had previously cut out, worth at most millions of Emperor Origin Stones.
Actually, the price wasn't low anymore, but the key was that he had no idea what was inside the blood-sealed stone Su Qianchen held.
Finally, at the last moment of the time limit, Jiang Yun grasped a piece of blood-sealed stone and returned to his original place.
Su Qianchen smiled and said, "This time's grand prize, why don't you, younger brother, decide it"
Jiang Yun thought for a moment and said: "This Blood Sealing Stone is worth one million Emperor Yuan Stones, so the prize should be the same as it, one million Emperor Yuan Stones!"
Hearing this, Xuan Yi couldn't help but say, "Aren't you known for liking to have fun"
"Why not just wager all the Emperor's Stones at once!"
Ginger Cloud looked at him with a half-smile and said, "Young Master Xuan, are you sure you want me to bet all my Emperor Source Stones at once"
Xuan Yi opened his mouth, though he desperately wanted to say "Yes," in the end, he could only coldly retort, "How much are you willing to offer I'll play along anyway!"
Jiang Yun simply ignored him and looked at Su Qianchen: "One million Emperor Source Stones!"
Su Qianchen smiled and nodded. "Sure!"
Immediately, someone from Shí tái Xuēn came over and collected the Emperor's Source Stones from both parties. The cultivator responsible for cutting the stones also appeared.
At this moment, everyone couldn't help but hold their breath again, waiting for the result of the first duel between Jiang Yun and Su Qianchen!d leaving the Wuyan Puppet Lamp!As the four items returned to his side, everyone within them was safe and sound, and they even received a demon pill. This finally allowed Jiang Yun to let out a breath...
