Chapter 29: Fish Essence Stone

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Qi Ocean Realm martial masters were not weak. Usually, they were either the owners of a martial arts academy or the leaders of some gang. At worst, they would have a respectable reputation in the pugilistic world.

Meanwhile, Head Constable Xing was at the 8th Stage of the Body Tempering Realm. Thus, even if he summoned the attacker to court, they might not even bother with him.

Meanwhile, Chen Shaojun instantly relaxed when he heard the constable’s judgment.

Was he a Qi Ocean Realm expert?

Obviously not.

In that case, no matter how hard they tried to investigate this case, they wouldn’t be able to find out about the truth.

After staying in the alley for a while, Chen Shaojun returned to the pawnshop with a relaxed expression.

These two days of chaos indeed affected their business.

However, Chen Shaojun still obtained a chance to appraise treasures.

It was an orange, heart-shaped gem.

There were many dark spots on it as it was surrounded by a baleful aura. It felt like ice in his hands, making him feel uncomfortable.

Chen Shaojun lit a candle, burned some incense, and used the Spiritual Eye technique to check the item.

There was quite a lot of baleful aura on the gem. However, there were only about ten wisps of baleful aura, so he was relieved.

Treasures like the jade ruyi that were fully inundated with a baleful aura and had a ghostly shadow entrenched within were a minority.

After all, these ‘raw materials’ were first handed over to the official pawnbrokers. Only treasures that they believed were of lower price and had less baleful aura would end up in the hands of the apprentice pawnbrokers.

Soon, the candle was extinguished, and the three sticks of bamboo incense burned out.

Then, Chen Shaojun immediately used the Divine Vision technique.

Compared to before, the current Chen Shaojun has experienced tremendous changes.

His qi and blood had become dense, and so was his spirit.

When he exerted all his strength, his blood and qi were like smoke, while his spirit was like mist.

When he executed the Divine Vision technique, his surging spirit and will were as sharp as a sword light.

Shua!

The baleful aura on the orange gem was instantly triggered. However, before it could rush out, it was washed away by Chen Shaojun’s spiritual power that resembled a sword light.

Then, the originally mottled orange gem immediately revealed its original appearance.

The entire gem was bright orange in color. It was sparkling and glistening.

The complete heart shape also seemed like it was a proof of love, making him unable to let go of it.

After the appraisal was completed, the Psychic Treasure Mirror Mirror appeared in his mind. There was even an orange gem reflected within it.

When Chen Shaojun took a closer look at the gem, he realized that it was the gem he had just appraised.

The Psychic Treasure Mirror was currently tracing the source of the treasure.

The moment Chen Shaojun saw the orange gem, various images appeared in his mind.

In the Yangtze River Domain, south of the Great Zhou Dynasty…

A green fish grew cautiously. Then, in a moment of confusion, it swallowed a stalk of sparkling water plants. Soon after, its body changed and it grew continuously, turning into a seven-foot-large fish.

On one occasion, a grandfather and his grandson entered the river to catch fish. The fishing net covered the body of the green fish and it angrily struggled to break free. It even knocked over the small boat that the two people were on. Then, it used its enormous body to kill them in the water.

After a few more incidents, the number of victims increased to ten.

Then, a young swordsman was invited.

At this moment, the green fish had already transformed into a demon and had mastered a water technique. It fought with the young swordsman in the Yangtze River and was unfortunately killed in the river.

The young swordsman carried the large fish to the shore, opened the fish’s belly, and took out its blood-colored demon core. The remaining fish meat was given to the fishermen nearby.

Then, a fisherman took out an orange gem from the throat of a big fish. The locals called it Fish Treasure or the Fish Essence Stone. It was carved into a heart-shaped gem by a craftsman. After a few rounds of fighting, it finally fell into the hands of the pawnshop.

…

Chen Shaojun woke up from his trance.

“I didn’t expect this gem to be from the body of a fish demon.”

Chen Shaojun was surprised.

This was also the first time that he had truly seen the existence of a demon in the Psychic Treasure Mirror.

Even though he had long known that there were ghosts in this world and that there would naturally be demons, this was the first time that he had seen one so clearly. Furthermore, this was the first time he witnessed the process of a creature evolving into a demon before being killed.

Then, the Psychic Treasure Mirror determined the grade of the item.

Words appeared above the Eight-Directional Spirit Realm.

The Fish Essence Stone was a Low-Grade Magic item. When it was worn, it could expel evil and exorcise sinister spirits. It could also invite comfort and wealth. When it was ground and used with water, it could even expel baleful auras.

“A Low-Grade Magic Item that can expel evil spirits?”

Chen Shaojun was stunned.

The grade of this Fish Essence Stone was within his expectations. However, its functions surprised him.

It should be known that in the pawnshop, whether it was the apprentice pawnbrokers or official pawnbrokers, the thing they feared the most was the baleful aura entering their bodies.

That was because once the baleful aura entered one’s body, there was no cure.

This was unless one found a Dao expert or someone with extraordinary medical skills. Only then could the baleful aura be exorcised through special means.

The official pawnbrokers held an extremely high position in the pawnshop.

However, they were nothing in the outside world.

Thus, it was almost impossible for them to invite a Dao expert or someone with extraordinary medical skills.

Even if there were people who could be saved, they only made up a small minority.

Now that he knew that the Fish Essence Stone could expel baleful aura, although this Fish Essence Stone seemed to be an ordinary item at most, it was better than having nothing, right?

The appraisal was a success!

The reward also fell into Chen Shaojun’s hands.

It was a talisman.

It was the Body Securing Talisman.

After it was activated, it could immobilize the opponent’s body.

It was a good item.

It could save his life at critical moments.

Chen Shaojun carefully put it away.

Next was Chen Shaojun’s training.

The Tiger Demon Body Tempering Fist was unleashed. His body moved and the shadow of his fists swayed. Then, intense blood and qi burst out and fluttered around the appraisal room like smoke.

He had already completed the internal organ cultivation required for the 7th Stage of the Body Tempering Realm. Thus, he had reached the 8th Stage of the Body Tempering Realm, which was the stage of hollow organ training.

Human organs were actually very fragile.

Once they were struck by a heavy weight, they would immediately shatter. Even if one was strong, severe injuries were still guaranteed if the object that fell onto them was sufficiently heavy.

The 7th and 8th Stages of the Body Tempering Realm tempered the internal organs of a martial artist.

Through the stimulation of one’s blood and qi, as well as the continuous impact of one’s strength, the originally weak organs of a martial artist would become more resilient bit by bit. This would allow them to withstand an even stronger impact on their bodies.

When one’s internal organs were tempered to the point of being as tough as cowhide, it naturally meant that a martial artist’s body tempering had already reached the Greater Mastery-Level.

As such, they could begin to charge into the last stage of the Body Tempering Realm.

It was the stage of internal inspection!

Not only did the internal inspection stage involve one’s blood, qi, and strength, but it also involved unseen ‘gods’.

“Based on my current progress, I estimate that in another two days, I would be able to temper the internal organs within my body to be as tough as cowhide. Then, I will be able to achieve the Perfection-Level in the 8th Stage of the Body Tempering Realm.”

“I am not slow at all.”

“However, I wonder if I can successfully achieve the 9th Stage of the Body Tempering Realm in two days like I did before?”

Chen Shaojun was drenched in sweat. He panted as he stopped what he was doing.

He knew that the 9th Stage of the Body Tempering Realm was a realm that allowed one’s qi and blood to reach perfection.

Then, he could use ‘internal inspection’ to cultivate strength in the parts of his body that he previously could not cultivate.

Only by doing so could the qi and strength of a martial artist become one.

Only then would it be possible to use this momentum to break through to the next realm, the Qi Ocean Realm!
