On that jade platform was an S-grade psionic battle armor.
Upon arriving at the third jade platform, before Shen Qian could even get a good look at the treasure on it, the Earl of Pingyang spoke up, "Shen Qian, you can't miss this treasure."
Shen Qian paused for a moment. He had already planned to skip over the third jade platform, but since the Earl of Pingyang had spoken, he quickly stopped and carefully examined a spirit stone that was constantly rotating on the third jade platform.
The spirit stone was only the size of a pigeon egg, and its overall appearance was grayish, but within that grayness, one could see wisps of surging silver.
"Celestial Spirit Stone - Long-term wear can nurture spiritual power (unique)."
"Exchange price: 26,000 Nine Heavens Tokens".
Shen Qian had already seen the written description, but he hadn't paid much attention to it at the time.
There are many kinds of spirit stones, and nurturing spiritual power is one of the more mainstream ones. When Shen Qian first obtained the system, he obtained an obsidian spirit stone while fighting against the scavengers, which was also the beginning of his rise in spiritual power.
The Heavenly Spirit Stone was obviously of a higher grade than the Obsidian Spirit Stone, far superior. However, if it weren't for the reminder from the Earl of Pingyang, Shen Qian wouldn't have paid much attention to it.
After all, he now possesses the complete method of the "Primordial Refining God Technique," coupled with his extraordinary talent in spiritual power, so he doesn't have a strong need for this type of spirit stone.
Is there any special significance to these Heavenly Spirit Stones?
After examining it for a while, Shen Qian couldn't see anything special about the spirit stone. It seemed to be no different from the high-grade spirit stones in the Hundred Kings Palace Treasury. Therefore, he looked at the Earl of Pingyang with a puzzled expression.
"It... was once an accessory of the King of Words."
After a brief silence, the Earl of Pingyang slowly spoke.
Shen Qian noticed that when the Earl of Pingyang said this, he seemed to deliberately block Yu Shouji's senses. He was secretly surprised, but for a moment he couldn't tell whether it was because the matter involved secrets or because there was some gossip involved.
The Word Spirit King was the only woman among the first nine kings, and according to legend, she was also a stunningly beautiful woman.
Shen Qian, who has seen the King of Words in person, said that the rumor is true.
Shen Qian knew that the Earl of Pingyang would likely have more to say, so he waited quietly.
"Among the first nine kings, the King of Words was known for his spiritual power. In the early years, the King of Dry Witch and the King of Zhouyi could still overpower him, but later, in terms of pure spiritual power, they were no match for the King of Words."
The Earl of Pingyang said meaningfully, "Among the nine kings of the first generation, the King of Words was the one who most resembled a 'god'."
"The most godlike being?"
Before sinking, I was somewhat confused.
But the Earl of Pingyang did not explain further, but continued, "This Heavenly Spirit Stone was left behind when the King of Words disappeared, which means that the King of Words has always carried it with him."
"There must be more secrets hidden within it; this is a spirit stone that has been severely underestimated."
With a hint of nostalgia, the Earl of Pingyang finally explained why he valued this spirit stone: "It has been gathering dust in the Martial Arts Department's storeroom for a long time. I have a strong feeling that it might be very suitable for you."
He remained silent for a moment, lost in thought.
It must be said that what the Earl of Pingyang said did move him.
But it's not just what Pingyang Bo said; there's another very important reason: Shen Qian indirectly received the legacy of the Word Spirit King in the Nine Kings Secret Realm.
That was the most powerful mental technique Shen Qian had ever seen, far surpassing the "Shadow Spear" and "Night Parade of a Hundred Ghosts" that he had previously mastered.
However, before sinking... the conditions for cultivation were not met.
Yes, although Shen Qian received the inheritance, even with his level of spiritual power, he still couldn't reach the threshold of cultivation.
If this Heavenly Spirit Stone is truly more than just an accessory for the King of Words, it might be the key to breaking the deadlock.
However, the price of the Heavenly Spirit Stone is quite high, close to 30,000 Nine Heavens Tokens. If the Heavenly Spirit Stone is chosen, there won't be many options left before sinking.
"Since the principal has said so, I will use this Heavenly Spirit Stone as a preliminary selection, and then decide on the rest after I have looked at them."
Shen Qian spoke cautiously.
"Alright."
The Earl of Pingyang nodded.
Only then did the Earl of Pingyang remove the shield, and Yu Shouji realized that the two had discussed something secret, but he was obviously not foolish enough to pry into the privacy of a prince.
Shen Qian visited the fourth, fifth, and sixth jade platforms in succession, but did not stay for long. It was not that the treasures on these three jade platforms were not attractive enough to him, but rather that they were all slightly inferior to the Heavenly Spirit Stone.
In the blink of an eye, only a jade platform remained in front of them.
If nothing unexpected happens, this should be the most valuable item in the vault.
Shen Qian was also very curious about what Wu Wei would use as the grand finale.
He stopped at the last jade platform, his gaze sharpening as lightning crackled around it. Though it was just an illusion, it still created a breathtaking atmosphere.
Amidst a sea of thunder, only a tiny scale stood upright.
Whether it was due to a network issue or some other mysterious aspect of the scales themselves, the seven-colored scales somehow appeared somewhat blurry.
"Wow, it seems the martial arts club really went all out this time, even bringing out this thing!"
To Shen Qian's surprise, not only the Earl of Pingyang, but even Yu Shouji recognized the scale.
He quickly bent down to check the text description below.
"Exchange price: 30,000 Nine Heavens Tokens".
Before sinking, the first thing that caught his attention was the exchange price. As expected, this small scale was the most expensive treasure in the entire vault.
Then, Shen Qian looked at the description of the treasure.
