Qi Lu didn't say anything.
Xia Chujian waited patiently for another five minutes.
A full half hour had passed since seeing the statue, when Qi Lu's young voice finally rang out: "Master, this thing is incredible!"
"Tsk tsk! Such an awesome thing can be obtained by the owner!"
"Master is truly blessed!"
Xia Chujian said, "Stop talking nonsense. Can I take my hand back?"
Qi Lu said, "Okay, take it back."
As Xia Chujian withdrew her hand, she saw that at the hem of the man's jade-white robe, where the red light had just flashed, red spider lilies appeared...
On the hem of the white robe made of jade, there appeared patterns of red spider lilies.
You know what, it’s quite nice.
Xia Chujian: “…”
She murmured, "Oh no! Did I defile this statue?"
Qilu also discovered it. It carefully scanned this part of the statue and then displayed it on Xia Chujian's eyepiece display.
"Master, you have not defiled this statue."
"Look at the hem of his robe; it already has a lot of uneven lines."
"In sculpture, this should be called Yin-Yang carving."
"Then, as long as there is light, different patterns will appear when it hits different yin and yang carvings."
“It’s a very common carving technique.”
"If you take that statue out of the box, the color and pattern of the hem of its white robe should have changed."
Xia Chujian was surprised: "So magical?"
She reached out, trying to take the statue out from under the tree and take a closer look.
As a result, when they started to work on it, they found that the statue was tightly connected to the big tree.
She either had to take the entire tree sculpture out, or just leave it like this inside.
Xia Chujian took out the entire sculpture and held it under bright light for a closer look.
As expected, when you get closer, you can see that there are indeed various uneven lines on the hem of the white robe.
Now under the light, the pattern on the hem of the white robe has become light blue waves.
The man seemed to be standing on the beach, with the rippling sea surface under his feet.
Xia Chujian was amazed: "So amazing! This is so beautiful!"
“This is top-notch aesthetics!”
At this moment, she even thought of the phoenix statues that the dwarves had carved for her...
It is the ultimate gorgeousness of simplicity and crudeness, without the ultimate refinement of elegance, calmness and composure.
Xia Chujian tutted his words twice: "...I still like my own statue."
Qilu: "...Master, are you talking about the phoenix statue? Qilu likes it too!"
Xia Chujian said, "Then we think alike."
She looked at the statue carefully again before saying, "Qilu, have you found out what material this sculpture is made of?"
"Is this tree part made of wood, jade, or even stone?"
The sculpture is clearly divided into two parts, the big tree and the man under the tree.
The big tree looks like wood and feels like wood, but Xia Chujian cannot guarantee that it is definitely wood.
Because there are so many strange and rare minerals in the universe, who knows what they are?
Moreover, Qilu's testing time this time was the longest in history.
Xia Chujian was very curious.
Qi Lu's young voice was a little hesitant as he said, "Master, Qi Lu found a clue in the database."
"But the record of this in Qilu's database also says it's just a legend, with no physical evidence."
Xia Chujian said "Oh" and became more interested: "Your database says it's just legendary material? There's no physical evidence?"
Qi Lu said, "Yes, this kind of information has a very low priority in Qi Lu's database because there is no physical evidence and it is just legendary material. It cannot generally be used as a source of logical reasoning."
Xia Chujian nodded: "That's not possible, but what kind of legendary material is it?"
Qi Lu: "...Master, the meaning of legend is uncertainty and may be false."
"It's not that the master said that legendary materials are so high-grade."
Xia Chujian said, "It means the same thing, there's no difference, just tell me!"
Qi Lu said, "...The material used for this statue of a man is a legendary jade called Guixu Soul Jade."
Xia Chujian was curious: "...This name is really legendary."
"I've heard of mutton-fat jade, green jade, white jade, topaz, and even jadeite, which is even harder, but I've never heard of soul jade, let alone something as outrageous as Guixu Soul Jade."
"Qilu, tell me, did you read some online novel and make it up for me?"
Qi Lu's young voice said with a hint of grievance: "Master, of course not!"
"Although Qilu also thinks this name is not very proper, this is how it is recorded in Qilu's database."
"Besides, there is a detailed explanation in Qilu's database."
"Guixu is a place name in legend."
"An ancient book says that beyond the sea lies a great ravine... In the vast wilderness, there is a mountain called Dayan, where the sun and the moon rise."
"Later generations annotated this book, saying that to the east of the sea, for untold millions of miles, there is a great abyss, which is actually a bottomless valley with no bottom at the bottom, and is called Guixu."
"So this place is also called Guixu. Legend has it that this is where all the water in the world finally converges."
"Soul Jade, according to legend, is a stone found in the land where phoenixes shed blood. Contaminated by the blood of countless phoenixes, it eventually transformed into jade, capable of containing jade souls."
"The Phoenix Nirvana is achieved through the rebirth of the Soul Jade hidden here."
