"This fellow Taoist is right. Apart from your surname Jiang, you, Jiang Fengyi, don't look like a member of the Jiang family. Your vision is so short-sighted, as cloudy as a fish's eyes."
Jiang Fengyi was about to get angry, but saw Ji Zhaojun suddenly raise her hand, point her slender finger at Keqing, and say with a smile.
"Plain and rough, vulnerable? Do you know that this is not an ordinary robe, but a robe with a thousand-change effect, and its rank is at least above the sixth grade."
Regardless of Jiang Fengyi's attitude, she pointed at Keqing's sword again.
"As for this sword, although I can't tell what grade it is, it is definitely a divine weapon and not a so-called first-grade magic weapon."
Ji Zhaojun slowly put down her finger and looked at Jiang Fengyi with interest.
"Tell me, are you short-sighted and illiterate?"
"Impossible! You are talking nonsense! This is obviously..."
"I'm talking nonsense? How about a bet?"
Before Jiang Fengyi could finish, Ji Zhaojun asked back, which made Jiang Fengyi's voice suddenly hoarse.
Bet! With this guy!?
Jiang Fengyi hesitated for a moment. Seeing her like this, Ji Zhaojun smiled, ignored her, and walked towards Keqing, performing a monk's etiquette lightly.
"Hello, fellow Taoist. My name is Ji Zhaojun. I am the second daughter of the Ji family, the daughter of Ji Tang."
Seeing the girl's smiling face, as bright as spring, Keqing naturally would not ignore her, she nodded slightly.
"Keqing, a free cultivator..."
Seeing Keqing's response, Ji Zhaojun smiled even more brightly.
"May I have a look at this robe? Your robe looks quite good. It is similar to something I have seen before."
"Of course, I'm just curious, just let me touch it."
Keqing was stunned. She didn't expect the girl to have such a request.
She didn't say anything, and Ji Zhaojun took it as her consent, and smiled, touching her sleeve with her fingertips.
只
I saw a ray of spiritual light splashing from the fingertips, and starting from the point of contact, a stream of spiritual energy surged from the inside of the robe to the outside.
The plain purple clothes instantly became full of spirit and charm, no longer as plain as before. Gorgeous runes were looming all over the body, weaving a dense golden net, on which thirty-two forbidden charms flowed, flashing with mysterious Taoist texts.
I saw a phoenix-like shadow appearing from behind, shining with precious light and lifelike, emitting an oppressive aura that made people sigh when they saw it.
No one who saw it would think that such a robe was only of the first grade.
“It is indeed this vestment…”
Ji Zhaojun understood, and Jiang Fengyi's face changed.
Just now she was self-righteous and thought that the girl in front of her was dressed simply and was not to be seen. She must be a monk who was so poor that she turned to evil ways.
However, who could have imagined that the other party suddenly transformed himself, and the robes he was wearing turned out to be a treasure of no less than the sixth grade!
Isn't she a casual cultivator? How could a casual cultivator have such precious clothes? Even she, a member of the Jiang family, doesn't have it!
If the vestments are like this, then the sword...
He looked at the sword with a grim expression, as if he could see what she was thinking. The Huiguang Sword came out with a clang, making a loud sword sound.
A ray of silver light broke free from the waist and danced with the phoenix shadow in the sky. The silver light flashed across, and the sword light was majestic, as if showing off or demonstrating.
While swinging, the Huiguang Sword came close to Jiang Fengyi's blackened face and almost cut off the hair by her ear, which scared her.
"It turns out to be a spiritual sword! It is indeed extraordinary."
Ji Zhaojun's eyes lit up as she looked at the Huiguang Sword in the air.
As if it felt that what she said was right, and that this human had good vision, the Huiguang Sword flew in front of her and danced ostentatiously.
Seeing Keqing looking helpless, he pulled her back.
"Sorry, this sword is a little disobedient."
"No problem. This is the first time I've seen such an agile sword spirit. It's quite interesting."
The commotion here attracted everyone's attention.
"This female cultivator seems to be from a prominent family. She doesn't seem to be someone who curries favor with the powerful as the Jiang family woman said."
"That's right. Look at the robes and the magic sword. They are all good things. She is just keeping a low profile. I think Jiang Fengyi is jealous of her beauty, so..."
"Oh~ I see."
""I am dying of laughter. A first-grade magic sword and robe. Do you think you can be a first-grade sword? I wanted to show off, but I didn't expect to be slapped in the face. It's funny."
Listening to the whispers of the people around her, Jiang Fengyi's eyes turned red, and she wanted to tear the mouths of the people around her apart! !
Chapter 139: The Source of Ancient Treasures
Jiang Fengyi left in disgrace.
She has brains, not no brains. No matter how much she argues in this situation, she will be just like a clown.
Being from an aristocratic family, she couldn't bring herself to apologize, but deep down she admitted that she had made a mistake. The prejudice in her heart made her have no good feelings towards Keqing, and the presence of the second daughter of the Ji family made her a little hesitant.
In the end, he could only glare at the people around him and left angrily.
"I'm sorry, Fellow Daoist Keqing, my third sister just did this to you... If it weren't for me, such a joke wouldn't have happened."
Jiang Yu looked a little embarrassed. Although she was not her biological sister, they were still family. Jiang Yu was angry and annoyed by the other party's malicious speculation, but at the same time she was also afraid of losing this hard-earned friend.
For a moment, he looked a little embarrassed and his voice was a little weak.
Fortunately, Keqing is not the kind of person who is petty. She is not concerned about people but things. Whoever caused the problem is at fault. She will not be implicated just because the two of them know each other.
She shook her head to indicate that it was okay.
"It doesn't matter. You are you and she is she. It's none of your business."
Jiang Yu breathed a sigh of relief when he heard that.
"That being said, if it weren't for me, Third Sister wouldn't have bothered you. How about this, I'll pay for the expenses of the Gathering Spirits Building this time! I'll pay for whatever Daoist Fellow Keqing likes."
Jiang Yu added, as if afraid that she would not agree.
"I am a member of the Jiang family after all, and I have plenty of spirit stones. I finally got this opportunity, so please don't save money for me, or I won't be able to apologize to you."
Having said that, Keqing didn't say anything and just nodded.
At most, I can just buy less...
Looking back at Ji Zhaojun standing beside her, Keqing suddenly became curious about what had just happened.
As if she saw Keqing's doubts, Ji Zhaojun explained with a chuckle before she could ask.
"Daoyou, this robe is indeed related to me, or more precisely, to my grandfather. My grandfather got this item from a secret realm. It was made by an ancient True Immortal using feathers woven from phoenix feathers. It incorporates the ancient pinnacle formations and prohibitions, and was made by a True Immortal."
"Fellow Daoist, you should know that the immortal artifacts made by ancient cultivators were at least ancient treasures. At that time, they were not as clear as they are today, and the artifacts were not as... fragile as they are now."
Ji Zhaojun smiled. Why are ancient treasures called ancient? That is naturally because they have been passed down from ancient times to the present day. Any ancient treasure that can be passed down to the present day is naturally valuable and of superb quality, otherwise it would not have survived tens of millions of years without decaying.
In ancient times, natural treasures were everywhere, and the materials used to refine ancient treasures were mostly rare treasures that are hard to find today, such as scales of mythical beasts, bird feathers, bones and skins of ancient fierce beasts.
Mao, this is why ancient treasures are ranked higher than magic treasures.
You have to know that the ferocious beasts at that time were not on the same level as those today. Back then was a barbaric era, and any ferocious beast was as powerful as a mountain, with its body covering the sky and blocking out the sun. They could be said to be ancient behemoths, with Nascent Souls everywhere.
However, in that era, the phoenix was considered the best among them, otherwise it would not be called the ancestor of all birds and beasts.
Was it woven from phoenix feathers? Keqing had never expected that her robes had such a great origin. You know, if something is stained with a mythical beast, its value and power will increase dramatically.
"My grandfather liked this ancient treasure very much. Of course, it was not because of the robe itself, but because of the restrictions and Taoist texts inside it. They were different from other ancient treasures. However, before he could study it carefully, he was cheated away because of a bet."
"Ahem, of course, it wasn't a lie. It's just that the man used some tricks to get the ancient treasure from my grandfather. After that, my grandfather regretted it a little and kept thinking about it. It just so happened that the aura and image of this ancient treasure were enlarged in my grandfather's room, so I was able to tell it apart."
"So, I wonder where this vestment of yours comes from..."
Seeing the girl's inquiring eyes, Keqing said calmly without changing her expression.
"It was just an accident, maybe a coincidence."
Chapter 140: Heart-to-heart communication
As if she noticed the change in Keqing's expression, Ji Zhaojun smiled.
"Don't worry, fellow Daoist. Treasures belong to those who are capable. My Ji family will not rob others of their treasures."
"Besides, this ancient treasure was originally given away by my grandfather. Although he said he regretted it, he was willing to accept the loss. As a powerful man, my grandfather would not go back on his word."
Cultivating Taoism means seeking the way and the truth. The higher you go, the more your words and actions become one, and you return to simplicity and nature. Your every word and action is in line with the law, and you follow the way, paying more attention to the promise of cause and effect.
That is, the true nature is revealed.
Hearing her say this, Keqing smiled slightly but said nothing.
Upon seeing this, Ji Zhaojun did not argue but spoke generously.
"I don't know why, but as soon as I saw you I felt so close to you, may I know your name?"
"Keqing"
"Keqing? It's refreshing like the rain driving away the thunder. The thunder and rain are like the rain. The sun clears up immediately. This is in line with the temperament of Daoist Fellow."
Ji Zhaojun blinked and praised. She wanted to say something, but at this moment, a young man dressed as a guard approached from behind and whispered something in her ear. Ji Zhaojun's smile gradually faded.
"Although I really want to make close friends with you, unfortunately, something happened at home and the timing is not right."
With a hint of regret in her eyes, Ji Zhaojun smiled and took out a small jade object from the storage space, which looked like a small conch.
"This is my sound transmission jade. Daoyou can come to the Ji family when you are free. I admire you very much. If you come, I will definitely treat you as an honored guest."
The sound transmission jade is different from the communication stone. The communication stone can communicate across states, but the message needs to be transmitted through the earth veins, and the message delay is very large, similar to a long-distance letter.
The sound transmission jade is different. It has no restrictions on the ground veins and does not need to find ground veins specifically to transmit sound synchronously. Of course, such a thing also has its shortcomings. The range of sound transmission is only within a thousand miles.
However, this thing cannot be given away casually. The sound transmission stone on each person has its own breath anchor point, and the world of immortal cultivation has many strange techniques, secret methods and magical powers, and there are countless people who use breath to make things happen, so the sound transmission stone is generally not easily handed over to strangers.
Ji Zhaojun gave Keqing the sound transmission stone containing her own aura after just meeting her once, which shows that she likes her very much.
The folding fan in his hand was straightened up suddenly, and Jiang Yu's eyes flashed with divine light. A hazy light slowly appeared in his pupils, but after a moment, a sharp pain came from his eyes, and the light dimmed.
He was stunned. That’s right, his Dao Eye had been attacked and could not be used for the time being.
There was a hint of regret in his eyes. He originally wanted to see whether the second daughter of the Ji family had discovered the extraordinaryness of Fellow Daoist Keqing just like himself, or was it that Fellow Daoist Keqing's charm first attracted him, a member of the Jiang family, and then attracted the people of the Ji family?
I was thinking in my heart... Could it be that in the end, the Li family and the Yan family will have something to do with Fellow Daoist Keqing?
His thoughts were wandering randomly, and suddenly stopped. Jiang Yu suddenly found it a little funny. How could it be possible? It was just a coincidence.
"Okay, I'll visit you when I have time."
Seeing Keqing accept it, Ji Zhaojun narrowed her eyes contentedly, turned around and left neatly with her dress fluttering.
The work was done, and then Keqing and Jiang Yu were taken by the maid to select spiritual materials.
The spiritual materials in the Juling Building are indeed excellent. Not only are they of good quality, but they are also of a wide variety. There are even spiritual materials that are scarce and rarely appear all year round. They are all excellent materials for making spiritual swords.
Keqing had thought that the Echoing Sword would like these spiritual materials very much, but for some reason, the Echoing Sword beside her did not react at all, and ignored them as if the things in front of her were like stones and she had no interest in them at all.
Could it be that I was wrong?
Keqing pondered, remembering that the Echo Sword was supposed to devour swords, not spiritual materials...
Does it mean a sword is needed?
So she asked the maid. Although the maid didn't know why the guest changed her mind, she still took the guest to the place where weapons were sold.
At first glance, it is colorful and shining like a ray of precious light, and each one is an extraordinary magical weapon.
And in front of him were rows of sharp blades, including rapiers, long swords, and soft swords. Swords made of various natural materials and treasures appeared in rows before his eyes.
The various shapes are like blooming flowers.
Some of them reflect cold light all over their bodies, are pure white and emit bursts of cold air; some are exquisite and small, with slender sword bodies, which are integrated and sharp as a sword; there are even swords that are different from ordinary swords, with dozens of small holes on both sides of the sword body, strung with thumb-sized bells, swaying in the wind like a dream.
Various magic swords were placed before them. The maids introduced them one by one, from long sword to soft sword, but the echoing sword at the waist did not react at all.
Keqing frowned slightly, wondering if she had guessed wrong.
Seeing the maid introducing her, Keqing showed no interest at all, when Jiang Yu at the side suddenly spoke.
"Fellow Daoist Keqing, do you want to buy a sword?"
"Well... sort of..."
