Shen Wang didn’t rush to break the crystal to see what’s inside, but instead took out three array flags and quickly placed them in three positions.
This is the isolation array he purchased, intended for this spiritual eye, to prevent too much spiritual qi from erupting when found, attracting the attention of other cultivators.
Now that the spiritual eye has been replaced by some kind of treasure, it can also be used.
After completing the isolation work, Shen Wang stuck three golden light talismans on his body, then cautiously had a puppet break the crystal.
The spiritual light became even more intense, and Shen Wang grew more excited; judging by this appearance, what’s inside is definitely not an ordinary treasure.
The purple crystal was gradually cut open, revealing its brilliant original color, a blue-golden light, noble and dignified, flowing softly like water, resembling an ocean.
The nearby spiritual qi immediately became dense; evidently, when the mine collapsed and the crystal cracked, this item’s spiritual light made Shen Wang mistake it for a spiritual eye or spring.
"A water attribute magical treasure?"
Shen Wang widened his eyes, vaguely seeing that the light source came from a rounded object, also blue and gold.
"Is it a magical treasure or a higher-level spirit treasure? At least a magical treasure, right?"
Shen Wang rubbed his hands excitedly; he indeed has a system, but it only provides experience and attributes, not magical artifacts or treasures.
As the crystal exploded, some light dispersed, revealing a blue pearl the size of an egg, with golden runes on it, exuding a formidable aura.
When Shen Wang approached, it felt like walking in water, a heavy force was transmitted over.
The naturally emitted power made Shen Wang move with difficulty, and he couldn’t help but feel excited: "So powerful, if used for attacks, it would be even more terrifying."
He activated all his power, struggling to get close, and carefully touched it; only after not being attacked did he confidently grasp the pearl.
The next moment, his face slightly changed.
He exerted some force but couldn’t move it, reluctantly clasping both hands together, spiritual power running wildly, barely managing to lift it.
"What kind of magical treasure is this, why is it so heavy?"
Shen Wang was puzzled and uncertain; theoretically, most magical treasures are inscribed with array runes to reduce actual weight for easy carrying, even if inherently heavy.
Only some special magical treasures, like those used by body refining cultivators who directly use the weight of the treasure to form attack power, would be .
But this pearl treasure should be a long-range attack item; being so heavy probably means he hasn’t found the method to activate it.
Due to water and fire being incompatible, Shen Wang tried injecting a trace of wood attribute spiritual power; the pearl didn’t react, and Shen Wang tried several ways to refine the magical artifact, but it remained motionless.
The lines on the pearl were very mysterious, and Shen Wang couldn’t understand them, so he could only take a storage pouch and put it away for later study.
After the pearl left, the nearby area quickly returned to darkness, but the crystals near the pearl still glowed, and Shen Wang picked up a piece, his eyes instantly brightening.
They actually contained abundant spiritual qi; he excitedly checked the nearby crystals and found all of them so, with the difference being the closer to the pearl, the purer the spiritual qi.
He compared them; the spiritual qi in these crystals is purer than spirit stones, at least ten times more dense!
"It seems the pearl has the ability to absorb heaven and earth spiritual qi, changing the crystals over time to contain spiritual qi; perhaps they should be called spiritual crystals."
Shen Wang took a deep breath, looking at the crystal at least a zhang wide, and couldn’t help but smile brightly.
"I’ve struck it rich, truly rich this time!"
He couldn’t contain his excitement; these crystals, purer in power than spirit stones, are undoubtedly worth a fortune, and he didn’t dare to take them out and sell them.
Even for his use, these spiritual crystals could last for a long time.
The only problem was that he hadn’t yet cultivated water attribute power, unable to fully utilize the value of these spiritual crystals.
"Amazing, the spiritual crystals accompanying the spirit pearl are already so precious, the spirit pearl itself must be even more outstanding."
Shen Wang muttered to himself, naming the obtained pearl the spirit pearl and the nearby crystals containing pure spiritual qi as spiritual crystals.
He ordered the puppet back into action, to dig up all the nearby spiritual crystals.
Not mentioning the difference in spiritual qi concentration, just the volume of these spiritual crystals was equivalent to millions of spirit stones; Shen Wang calculated their value and felt a bit dizzy, it’s too much.
It seems unknowingly, he had become a rich man, even a wealthy man in the cultivation realm.
Besides his happiness, he felt a bit afraid.
A common man innocent, but guilty for possessing riches.
How could a Qi Cultivation Cultivator like himself possess such treasures? If a powerful person discovered them, they could easily eliminate him to obtain them, who could resist taking action?
Low-key, must be low-key.
Shen Wang warned himself, carefully storing all the crystals containing spiritual qi.
To avoid leaving traces, he even collected the debris-laden soil; fortunately, he had spare storage pouches, otherwise, they wouldn’t have been enough.
In the end, all storage pouches were filled, Shen Wang checked the vicinity to ensure nothing was left behind, then controlled the puppet to further develop the area to form a resting space.
"This thing should have an effect of absorbing spiritual qi, similar to a spiritual eye, but the absorbed spiritual qi was fixed nearby, coupled with layers of crystal soil stone isolation, buried deep underground; being near a mundane area, it survived, otherwise how could it have fallen to him."
Shen Wang murmured, puzzled about how this thing ended up buried underground, was it accidentally dropped during a battle?
Otherwise, where in this wilderness could such treasures come from?
After ensuring there were no other treasures, Shen Wang headed out, deciding to temporarily seal this mine for a period to avoid any more surprises.
This time going home, Shen Wang was on edge the entire journey; only after arriving at the ancestral home did he finally relax, arranging the isolation array flags in a secret chamber to form a double layer of protection with the original master bedroom’s isolation array.
He took out the spiritual crystals, placing the spirit pearl on them, the blue light refracted by the crystals appeared colorful and varied.
Shen Wang watched the spirit pearl for a while, but it didn’t absorb any spiritual qi, leaving him puzzled.
Why did it go against his expectations? If this thing doesn’t absorb spiritual qi, where did the spiritual qi in the spiritual crystals come from?
Could it be that the spiritual qi flowed out from the pearl itself?
"Perhaps I haven’t activated it, or it only absorbs spiritual qi under special circumstances?"
Confounded, Shen Wang could only observe for a while before considering what to do next.
He left the secret chamber, had dinner, and came to the master bedroom to nurture his daughter’s meridians.
The colorful fish in the fish tank happily jumped up, and Shen Wang was surprised: "Why are you so welcoming today, usually you’re indifferent."
The colorful fish swam rapidly in the water, its big eyes shining as it looked at him, very excited.
Shen Wang went over and petted the little golden fish, not thinking much of it, came to his daughter’s side, gave her a kiss, and began to nurture her meridians.
