Chapter 492 I Trust the Qin Family

In the yard.

Qin Yanran finally selected ten Star Source Stones.

Five of them were the star source stones that Chu Ning pointed out had star sources, and the other five were those that Chu Ning considered as waste stones.

Choose five each.

"Master Ji, which side do you think we should cut first?"

Qin Yanran looked at Chu Ning, and Chu Ning said casually, "It's all right."

The more casual it is, the more confident it is.

Qin Yanran did not hesitate and walked to the five Star Source Stones that were considered waste stones. She tapped with both hands, and the skin of the first Star Source Stone fell off, revealing a piece of yellow-white jade inside.

The yellowish-white jade is waste stone to the monks.

Next, Qin Yanran cut open the remaining four Star Source Stones one after another, and without exception, there was no Star Source Stone inside any of them.

"Master Ji, you are so accurate."

Qin Yanran flattered Chu Ning, but Chu Ning smiled faintly and did not respond. As an appraisal master, he might not be 100% sure that the Star Source Stone must contain Star Source, but he was extremely sure that there was no Star Source in the Star Source Stone.

"Master Ji, are you going to take care of these five pieces, or will I continue?"

"Fairy Qin, please continue."

Chu Ning had no intention of taking action at all. He already knew the situation inside these Star Source Stones, so he didn't feel the tension and excitement of seeing them in person.

One cut to heaven, one cut to hell, he will never experience this feeling.

"Let me do it."

Feng Ansheng, who had been watching from the side, volunteered. Cutting star source stones, especially those with a high chance of producing star sources, also gives one a great sense of accomplishment.

"Can."

Chu Ning agreed, and Qin Yanran did not object. Feng Ansheng walked to the front of the Star Source Stone and carefully touched its green skin a few times before his spiritual power fell on the Star Source Stone.

"How long will you use up this little bit of spiritual power?"

Seeing Feng Ansheng's cautious look, Chu Ning was speechless. This was not the jade from his previous life. The master who cut the raw stone was afraid of damaging the jade inside the raw stone and had to be very careful. Although this star source stone was huge, the star source was so small that it could not be destroyed at all.

"Hehe, this is called piety. I see that many appraisers are like this."

Feng Ansheng explained, but also increased his spiritual power. As the spiritual power increased, the surface of the Star Source Stone began to fall off, revealing the yellow and white jade inside. In the middle of the yellow and white jade, there was a ray of light that made people feel relaxed and happy.

Just one look at it makes you feel relaxed and happy.

This is a group of green star sources.

This is the wonder of star sources. Star sources are not of one color, but of many different colors.

Some people say that star sources are actually born from the energy of heaven and earth compressed to the extreme, and are the purest type of energy between heaven and earth.

Some are pure spiritual power compressed to the extreme. This type of Star Source cultivator can absorb it directly without any side effects and will not make the foundation of Taoism unstable. Of course, the number is extremely rare and basically will not flow out.

Improving one's realm is what every cultivator needs. No matter whether it is an individual cultivator or a sect that cuts out such a star source, they will not sell it to outsiders.

"This star source contains the ultimate healing energy. As long as I am still alive, I will be able to recover with the help of this star source."

Qin Yanran's eyes lit up when she saw the green star source. When she reached the Spirit Transformation Realm, once she was injured, it was no longer an ordinary flesh wound, but an injury to her foundation of Taoism. It was extremely difficult to recover, and the elixir that could heal her was of a very high grade. It was difficult to gather all the materials for refining, not to mention finding an alchemist to refine it, as there was still a certain failure rate.

As for purchasing pills directly, this type of pills will never appear in the market, unless you ask those high-level alchemists for help, and those alchemists happen to have them, and finally are willing to give you face and trade them.

This ray of starlight is worth collecting for future use.

Qin Yanran raised her jade hand, and a jade gourd flew out quickly and landed on the Star Source Stone. The gourd turned, and the huge Star Source Stone along with the purple star source was drawn into the gourd mouth.

The gourd mouth, which was only one foot wide, swallowed up the Star Source Stone which was more than two feet high, like a snake swallowing an elephant. However, Chu Ning and Feng Ansheng were not surprised at this scene. With such a small opening of the storage bag, it could still hold a mountain.

The size of space-related treasures cannot be judged by the naked eye.

"It seems like I'm lucky. This is a good start."

Feng Ansheng chuckled, Chu Ning rolled his eyes, and Qin Yanran smiled.

With the experience of the first piece, Feng Ansheng was not so cautious this time. He raised his spiritual knife and slashed it, and the stone skin fell off. This time, a ray of green light appeared inside, which was much richer than the previous piece.

Seeing the blue star source, Qin Yanran smiled again. The star source in the star source stone can be taken directly to improve the cultivator's cultivation. How much it can be improved depends on the cultivator's own realm.

For a cultivator who has reached the stage of spiritual transformation, one wisp is equivalent to ten years of cultivation.

The third piece is still a blue star source.

The fourth piece was a ray of white star source. When this ray of white star source was seen, a figure suddenly appeared in the yard.

A middle-aged man appeared in the yard. He raised his right hand, and the entire Star Source Stone flew into his sleeve and disappeared.

"Father!"

Qin Yanran spoke, and Chu Ning looked at the middle-aged man. This man was Qin Zhentian, the current head of the Qin family.

"Um."

Qin Zhentian responded, and then looked at Chu Ning: "Master Ji is worthy of being a master of appraisal. I admire your eyesight. There is no need to cut the remaining piece."

Star Source Stone is most valuable when it is not cut, especially when it is confirmed to contain star sources.

Qin Zhentian has recognized Chu Ning's identification ability as he has no problem identifying nine Star Source Stones in a row. Although he is shocked by Chu Ning's age and realm, he can only attribute it to his unique talent in identifying Star Source Stones.

"Master Ji, feel free to take any Star Source Stone you like."

According to the agreement, Chu Ning could take away a piece of Star Source Stone. Hearing Qin Zhentian say this, Chu Ning did not hesitate and directly picked out a piece from those waste Star Source Stones.

Seeing Chu Ning's actions, the expressions of Qin Zhentian and Qin Yanran, father and daughter, became strange at the same time. Ji Yang did not trust them and was afraid that the Qin family would go back on their word, so he classified the Star Source Stone he had set his eyes on as waste stone.

If I were to go back on my word, I would definitely think that the Star Source Stone that Master Ji had his eyes on was among those Star Source Stones that were picked out as having Star Sources, and would definitely not be among the waste stones. To put it another way, even if I had thought of it, I would not dare to cut it open. There were so many waste stones that I could not be sure which one it was, and the cost of cutting them all open would be too high.

Even the Qin family cannot afford the loss of one million spirit crystals.

"Ahem, Master Ji is really cautious."

Qin Yanran glanced at Chu Ning with some resentment. If it were any other man, he would probably feel guilty. But Chu Ning had seen many beautiful women and he had two at home, so he would not fall for Qin Yanran's tricks.

"It's better to be safe than sorry. After all, I'm just a small Nascent Soul cultivator."

"Master Ji is right. We cultivators should be more cautious." Qin Zhentian said, not angry at all because of Chu Ning's distrust. He just smiled and said, "But I have an unreasonable request. I wonder if Master Ji can agree to it?"

"Patriarch Qin wants me to cut this star source apart, right?"

Chu Ning could guess what Qin Zhentian was thinking. He was just curious about what was in the Star Source Stone he had chosen.

"Master Ji is really a very smart person. I am indeed a little curious and want to see what is inside the Star Source Stone that can make Master Ji's heart flutter. But if Master Ji is unwilling, that's fine. I will never force you."

Although Qin Zhentian was curious, he had witnessed Chu Ning's identification ability, especially his sixth uncle's comment just now, "This boy is no worse than the four identification masters." This comment made him value Chu Ning's value even more.

The four appraisal masters are already very old, while Ji Yang is only at the Nascent Soul stage. With his ability to appraise Star Source Stones, he will be able to enter the Spiritual Transformation stage in the future by relying on the Star Source, and his lifespan will be close to two thousand years.

This kid is worth making friends with!

"Then don't watch it."

Chu Ning refused bluntly. What a joke! The Qin family would definitely feel sad after watching it, and they would definitely feel uncomfortable. It would be better not to watch it.

Qin Zhentian: ...

As the patriarch of the Qin family and a powerful person in the Return to Void Realm, it was the first time that he was rejected so disrespectfully by someone, and the person at that time was a junior in the Nascent Soul Realm.

But he couldn't get angry.

Qin Yanran's eyes became more resentful, but Chu Ning ignored her and glanced at Feng Ansheng, saying, "Take this Star Source Stone away."

This piece of Star Source Stone is more than ten feet tall and cannot be put into a storage bag.

"Okay."

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

Feng Ansheng also didn't give Qin Zhentian any face. He didn't even look at Qin Zhentian and just happily carried the Star Source Stone.

"Chief Qin, Fairy Qin, I will take my leave now."

Chu Ning was very straightforward, and Qin Zhentian nodded: "Okay, Master Ji, thank you for your hard work. Master Ji, go and have a rest first. When these Star Source Stones are sold, I will settle with you according to the price of Spirit Crystals."

"I still trust the Qin family." Chu Ning smiled brilliantly. These words once again made Qin Zhentian and Qin Yanran, the father and daughter, twitch their lips. You trust the Qin family?

Because you trusted the Qin family, you classified the Star Source Stone you had previously taken a fancy to as waste stone?

He really just speaks nonsense.

Looking at Chu Ning and Feng Ansheng's departing backs, Qin Zhentian looked at his daughter: "What do you think of Ji Yang?"

“It’s a bit hard to understand. He’s only at the Nascent Soul stage, but he’s so calm and confident when facing a powerful Spiritualization Realm expert.”

"He's so confident, maybe because he's a master of appraisal?"

"Father, the world of cultivators still relies on strength, but this person's situation is also extremely special. Other appraisal masters, by the time they have master-level appraisal strength, they have also stepped into the Spiritual Transformation Realm, so there is no comparison."

Qin Yanran was somewhat helpless. This was the first time such a young appraisal master had appeared in the Xinghai Region in all these years.

"Try to make friends with this person. Sixth Uncle is very optimistic about him. If we can win him over to our Qin family, he can just identify the Star Source Stone for our Qin family's new Star Source Mine."

"Father, has the new mine been completed?"

"Well, Sixth Uncle personally took action to clear the void undercurrents. These undercurrents will not appear again in the short term, but the big thieves in the Star Sea Region have also set their sights on the mining area. Sixth Uncle cannot stay in the mining area forever. He must hurry up to retrieve the suitable Star Source Stones and then seal the mining area for the next excavation."

"Okay, I know what to do."

…

…

Feng family compound.

Feng Ange saw his younger brother coming back with a Star Source Stone on his back, and cast a puzzled look at Chu Ning.

"Sister, this is what Ji Yang got from the Qin family. He showed the Star Source Stone to the Qin family, and the Qin family allowed him to take one."

Feng Ansheng saw his sister's puzzled look and took the initiative to explain, quickly recounting what had happened in the Qin family compound.

"Do you fancy the star source in this star source stone?"

Feng Ange was also curious. She knew in her heart that the Star Source Stone that Chu Ning took a fancy to must be extraordinary.

"Well, I'm going to transport it."

Chu Ning nodded. He had no plan to cut this Star Source Stone, but instead planned to transport it back to Nian Tangshan.

"Transport it?" Feng Ange frowned, "I'm afraid it's a little difficult."

In Feng Ange's opinion, Chu Ning must be transporting the Star Source Stone to other domains. The journey is long, and the Star Source Stone cannot be put into a storage bag. It is easy to be plundered by star thieves in the void, unless Chu Ning transports it himself.

"I plan to ask the people from Sihai Trading Company to help with the transportation. Sihai Trading Company's business covers the entire northern border, so they should have their own transportation channels."

"Si Hai Trading Company?" Feng Ange thought for a while: "If Si Hai Trading Company is responsible for the transportation, safety will be no problem, but as for confidentiality..."

Because her brother was around, Feng Ange didn't say it so clearly. She was worried that Chu Ning would contact Sihai Trading Company and expose her whereabouts. After all, Sihai Trading Company could infer some clues based on the address.

"It will be fine."

Chu Ning smiled slightly. He would contact Yun Anlan and have Yun Anlan send him to Danshan Sect so that his whereabouts would not be exposed.

"That's fine."

Feng Ange didn't ask too many questions. He knew that Chu Ning would definitely consider the same issues that he had considered.

"By the way, let me tell you one more thing. Many people from other regions in the Northern Territory have also come this time. They are all geniuses from their respective regions."

Chu Ning's pupils shrank. Feng Angge meant that some of his acquaintances had come to the Star Sea Region to participate in this Star Sea event.

"What is the relationship between the people from other domains and Ji Yang? Sister, you are not planning to introduce Ji Yang to these geniuses, are you?"

Feng Ansheng, who didn't know the truth, was completely confused. Ever since he felt that his sister might have some feelings for Ji Yang, he stopped calling him "brother Yang" and started calling him by his name.

This is to pave the way for calling him "brother-in-law" in the future.

"Is this an idea? Is it necessary?"

"Not for now."

Chu Ning knew what Feng Ange meant. If he wanted to meet those old friends, she could cover for him.

However, after thinking about it, Chu Ning felt that it was unnecessary. The Jiu Ming Organization had issued a wanted order for him, and they might be keeping an eye on Lu Sizhong and his gang. If he met with Lu Sizhong and his gang, he might be suspected.

The elixir provided by the Saint Master can conceal his aura and true strength, and even the powerful Cave Void masters cannot see it. However, if we speculate from the time of "Ji Yang's" appearance, we can still find a clue.

…

…

Three days later.

The Xingyuan event officially begins.

In Fengming City, the sound of a phoenix's cry resounded throughout the sky.

Everyone looked at the huge fiery red phoenix hovering over Fengming City in shock.
