As soon as Mu Hanyan grasped the Fire Stone in her palm, her heart moved slightly, and she actually felt an extremely familiar aura.
Chaos Heavenly Fire. Soon, Mu Hanyan realized what this familiar aura was. That aura was surprisingly similar to the Chaos Heavenly Fire. Faintly, there was also some spiritual meaning in it, but that spiritual meaning was very weak, like a dying person who was on the verge of extinction.
Could it be that the Fire Stone contained what Ling Baobao called the Heaven and Earth Spirit Fire? But why was there no record of Heaven and Earth Spirit Fire in either the Holy Court Continent or the God Continent?
Sensing the spiritual power within the fire, already on the verge of extinction, Mu Hanyan suddenly considered a possibility. Hidden within the Fire Stone was, in fact, a spiritual fire of heaven and earth that had yet to be fully nurtured. Due to the limitations of the laws of heaven and earth, it could never be nurtured. With each use, a trace of the spiritual power within it faded. In other words, even if it wasn't used, the spiritual power within it would eventually wither.
The more Mu Hanyan thought about it, the more she felt her conjecture was possible, and she was filled with joy. Regardless of whether this Heavenly Spirit Fire could ultimately be successfully nurtured, since it could be used to refine elixirs, there was absolutely no reason why her Primal Chaos Heavenly Fire, known as the source of all fires, could not be used to refine them.
"Master Chief Priest, have you discovered anything?" The head of the Gu family noticed the joy in Mu Hanyan's eyes and asked.
"Well, I seem to have seen some records in the notes of a former chief priest, but I'm not sure. How about this, Master Gu refines it again, and I'll observe and see if it's the same as the records of the former chief priest?" Although Mu Hanyan guessed what was going on, she didn't dare to be completely sure, so she decided to wait and see.
"Well... okay, I'll try again." The head of the Gu family hesitated for a moment and nodded.
He had finally collected all the herbs needed to refine the Phoenix Nirvana Pill, but he had never dared to try again because he had not yet figured out the secret of the Fire Stone.
If they fail again, the Gu family will not even have the capital to make a final comeback.
However, he also knew that if he waited any longer, he might never be able to unravel the mystery of the Fire Stone. As he grew older and his physical condition worsened, his chances of refining the Phoenix Nirvana Pill became smaller and smaller. While Mu Hanyan, the chief priest of Huayu, was present, he might still have some chance.
But thinking that this is the Gu family's last chance to turn things around, he is still somewhat uneasy.
"Master Gu, are you worried that if we fail again, the Gu family will never have another chance?" Mu Hanyan saw his worry and asked.
The head of the Gu family nodded. Anyway, everyone knew the situation of the Gu family, so he didn't need to save face.
"There's nothing to worry about." Mu Hanyan gave Chen Yuhe a wink.
"Grandpa, don't worry. Look what this is." Shen Yuhe took out a relic soul bead as if presenting a treasure.
“This… this is…” Patriarch Gu’s eyes lit up and his breathing became rapid.
Zhu Yulan didn't have good eyesight and didn't recognize the relic soul bead, so he mistook it for a glass bead, but his eyesight was not that bad.
"Grandpa, don't worry and just refine it boldly. Even if you fail, it doesn't matter. You can just buy more herbs. If you don't have enough money, I have more here." Shen Yuhe said as she took out a dozen relic soul beads and tossed them around like glass beads.
Patriarch Gu and Patriarch Tang and Feng were all stunned and couldn't come back to their senses for a long time.
"Relic Soul Beads, where did you get so many Relic Soul Beads?" It took a while for Gu Qingyang to come back to his senses, and he looked at his granddaughter in surprise and confusion.
"This was accumulated by the successive chief priests, left and right priests, and other high priests of the Flower Rain Temple. We didn't know about it originally, but only recently found out about it after we found the will of the previous chief priest. Perhaps the previous masters were worried that something might happen to the Flower Rain Temple, so they made preparations in advance and left some capital for future generations to make a comeback." Mu Hanyan said hurriedly.
Since outsiders didn't know the situation at the Flower Rain Temple, they could simply blame the previous head priest. There was no need to find any other excuses. Of course, this was just to appease the Gu family. If they really wanted to make a large-scale move, this excuse wouldn't work. After all, a head priest only made twelve relic soul beads a year, and the priests under him made even fewer. Furthermore, personal cultivation was essential, so a head priest might not be able to accumulate many in his lifetime.
"It turns out that it was accumulated by the high priests of successive generations. However, this is the capital for the Huayu Temple to make a comeback, and it cannot be used carelessly." Gu Qingyang did not doubt it, but still said it solemnly.
"It's okay. The previous high priest left a lot behind, and I still have some here." Mu Hanyan simply grabbed a handful of relic soul beads and said indifferently.
The reason why she asked Chen Yuhe to show some of her wealth was to reassure Gu Qingyang and tell him that we can afford the compensation. However, she didn't expect that his expression became more serious and the psychological pressure must have been greater. This was not the result she wanted.
"I have some here too. Feel free to use them if you need them." Ling Baobao also took out a handful of relic soul beads and said generously. Since everyone who saw it got a share, of course he would also get one. However, to him, the difference between relic soul beads and glass beads was probably not that big, so he didn't take it seriously at all.
"We have some too. Feel free to use them if you want." Even Ling Baobao was so generous, so Sikong Qinglan certainly wouldn't hide any. He and Chen Yuhe grew up together.
Wen Gaoren was still thinking about becoming Mu Hanyan's disciple, so naturally he wouldn't be petty at this time.
"I, Gu Qingyang, will always remember the kindness of Huayu Temple. As long as we can overcome this difficulty, the Gu family will repay us with all our strength." Looking at those faces filled with sincerity, Gu Qingyang was so moved that tears filled his eyes.
"Master Gu, you are too polite. Although this relic soul bead is rare, it is not worth much. There is no need to care too much about it." Seeing the tears in Gu Qingyang's eyes, Mu Hanyan felt a little embarrassed.
"Not worth much?" Tang and Feng both looked a little strange.
Mu Hanyan looked at them strangely. As far as she knew, the normal price of this relic soul bead ranged from tens of thousands to hundreds of thousands of taels of silver. However, because it was rare, one could be lucky enough to get a sky-high price of hundreds of thousands at an auction. However, if it were sold on the black market, the price would actually be much lower and it was not too valuable.
"If it were an ordinary relic soul bead, it would indeed not be too valuable, but what you have in your hands are five-colored relics, each of which is worth a million, and the price will be even higher at the auction. If this is not valuable, what is valuable?" Gu Qingyang said with a wry smile. Seeing Mu Hanyan's strange expression, he guessed that Mu Hanyan was not quite clear about the true value of this relic soul bead.
Over a million per bead! Mu Hanyan's eyes couldn't help but flash with a golden star. In other words, the box of relic soul beads in the star disk space was not worth a billion, but tens of billions. A bunch of zeros flashed in her mind. It's not going to work anymore. I'm a little dizzy.
