Chapter Ninety-Seven: The Consumption of Spiritual Power

"Immeasurable Heavenly Venerable, what the hell is going on?" In shock, Fang Yi almost shouted, and when he put down the cricket gourd, that mysterious feeling disappeared immediately.

"Supposedly I should only have senses for magic weapons?"

Fang Yi was puzzled, and reached out to pick up another snuff bottle, he didn't feel anything when he first got started, but after reciting the scriptures silently in his heart, that familiar feeling suddenly came to his heart again.

"Could it be that my supernatural powers have a sense of objects that contain the vicissitudes of life?"

Fang Yi suddenly had such a thought in his heart, because he remembered that he seemed to have never been in contact with other cultural and antique curios with a long history except for the magic weapon in his master's hand, so he might not only be able to sense the mana of the magic weapon, and the breath of the vicissitudes of time was also within Fang Yi's sensing range.

"Try something else......" When this idea came to mind, Fang Yi immediately set his eyes on the other five or six objects on the stand, and without the slightest hesitation, Fang Yi picked up a bronze mirror that looked antique.

"I don't feel anything, it should be a fake...... After reciting the scriptures in his mouth, Fang Yi didn't sense the feeling of the ancient vicissitudes of life, and immediately put down the bronze mirror and picked up another object.

"I don't feel anything, it seems that I only feel things that have history and years......

After trying five or six things, Fang Yi understood a little in his heart, and a thought suddenly flashed in his mind, "I can sense the vicissitudes of time in antiques, how can I ...... Wouldn't you be able to tell the difference between the real and the fake in the field?"

Thinking of this, Fang Yi's heartbeat sped up a few points, with this kind of magical power, even if he didn't know anything about the antique business, he could still get countless authentic treasures, this ...... It's a money-making strip.

"The time is almost up, hurry up and look at a few more objects...... In order to strictly control the time, there is a timer on the stage, counting down from ten minutes, Fang Yi glanced at it and found that it was only three minutes before they stepped down.

"Immeasurable Tianzun, you should leave me something to see!"

Fang Yi, who was about to check the items in other booths, suddenly found that in front of the booths of calligraphy, painting, ceramics, including Ming and Qing dynasty furniture, bronzes and other antiques, there were all standing people, and most of them were being held in their hands, only the discarded booklet on a booth next to Manjun No one paid attention.

"Yongle Grand Ceremony?"

Fang Yi picked up a booklet with yellow paper on the surface, and when he saw that the four words of Yongle Dadian were clearly written on it, he couldn't help but be happy, he often heard the master talk about this book, but he didn't think that he could see it with his own eyes.

"Yongle Canon" compiled in the Ming Dynasty Chengzu that is, Yongle period, by the Hanlin Academy scholar Xie Jin as the chief compiler, lasted six years to complete the compilation, is China's most famous ancient classics, but also the world's largest encyclopedia so far, its scale far exceeds all the previous generations of books compiled, leaving many rich stories and difficult mysteries for future generations.

But it is a pity that after the Ming and Qing dynasties, most of the "Yongle Canon" was burned in the war, and some of them were lost to foreign countries when they were invaded in modern times, and more than 10,000 copies of more than 300 million words of "Yongle Canon" have only survived more than 800 copies.

These more than 800 volumes of the Yongle Canon are basically collected in museums in various countries, and the "Yongle Canon" that can be seen on the market now is recognized by many people as being copied by descendants in the early 20th century, and can even be seen on the stalls of some antique markets, so the "Yongle Canon" on this booth has not been valued by everyone on the stage.

"Hey, this ...... There's that sense of the vicissitudes of time in this book, too?"

Originally, Fang Yi didn't have any hope for this "Yongle Canon", he just chanted the scriptures casually, but to his surprise, the sense of vicissitudes in this book seemed to be even worse than the cricket gourd and the snuffbox he was playing with just now.

"Is it really the Yongle Grand Ceremony of the Ming Dynasty?"

Fang Yi's heart was beating wildly, and there was a feeling of dizziness in his mind, although he didn't know the current market value of the Yongle Canon, but Fang Yi knew that from the perspective of cultural relics and archaeology, the "Yongle Canon" that recorded the people's livelihood science at that time was absolutely precious.

At least Fang Yi's master is very respectful of the "Yongle Canon", he once said that throughout the dynasties, the "Yongle Canon" can be said to be the highest achievement of ancient Chinese science and culture, if it were not for the Ming Dynasty emperor after Zhu Di and the mediocre ministers in power, a single "Yongle Canon" can create a prosperous era for the Ming Dynasty.

"Repatriation from abroad?"

Fang Yi remembered what the Manjun had said, and suddenly understood a little in his heart, this single Yongle Canon was most likely collected by the collection company abroad, but they themselves did not seem to have identified this book as an authentic work of the Ming Dynasty.

"Huh, why are you so dizzy?"

Fang Yi shook his head vigorously, he thought it was caused by his overexcitement, he took a deep breath at the moment, and put the Yongle Ceremony back on the booth without moving, and after taking a deep breath, Fang Yi's dizziness was immediately relieved.

"Everyone, there is still one last minute, if you are optimistic, you can go back to your seats......" The host's voice sounded on the stage, and the people on the stage didn't seem to hear it, and several people, including the Manchu army, were still looking at the objects in their hands with magnifying glasses.

"Yes, it's nothing to do with me, let's go down......"

Glancing at the "Yongle Canon" with a very vague look, Fang Yi raised his feet and prepared to go down, but when he walked to the edge of the platform, he found a dragon-shaped jade pendant the size of a baby's palm on a stand.

It's just that the quality of this dragon-shaped jade pendant is not very good, although the whole jade pendant is very complete, but the whole body is rusty, and it is not a color, which makes the jade pendant appear dull and dull as a whole, and the discerning person knows at a glance that it is an unearthed ancient jade of low value.

It is not that all unearthed jade artifacts are valuable, such as jade that has been infiltrated and eroded by underground undercurrents, and there will be deep and shallow water stains on the surface that form a flow, and the value of this jade after unearthing is not very high.

Although this dragon-shaped jade pendant has not been stained by water, it is relatively thin, and those rusty stains have soaked the entire body of the jade pendant, so in the eyes of many people, even if it is a good jade, it cannot be played.

"Anyway, no one is looking, try again......" Fang Yi suddenly had this idea in his mind, stopped and took the jade pendant in his hand, and recited the scriptures in his mouth.

"Huh? This ...... It's a long time coming......"

A sense of desolation like a wilderness appeared in Fang Yi's mind, but before Fang Yi could understand it carefully, a pinprick-like pain suddenly appeared in his brain, and a strong feeling of dizziness made Fang Yi stumble under his feet.

Fang Yi stopped reciting the scriptures in his mouth, and the induction between him and the ancient jade was also cut off, but when Fang Yi stopped, although the dizziness was still there, it was much better than when he was chanting.

"What's going on? Could it be that sensing the years in objects makes my mind feel tired?"

At this time, Fang Yi only felt sluggish, as if he hadn't slept for a few days, this feeling had not appeared for many years after he cultivated to Xiaocheng, and he didn't think that after sensing a few objects one after another, his spiritual power would be exhausted.

"It seems that the supernatural powers I possess are still related to spiritual power...... Fang Yi had a glimmer of realization in his mind, but the severe headache made him really unable to think about it.

"Xiao Fang, Xiao Fang, are you okay?"

The voice of the Manchu army seemed to come from the sky, echoing in Fang Yi's ears, and also woke up Fang Yi who was in dizziness, and when he opened his eyes, Fang Yi found that he was standing on the stage with his arm supported by the Manchu army.

"What's the matter with you kid?" scared me a lot, I almost fell down when I stood there in a good manner......" Man Jun breathed a sigh of relief after seeing Fang Yi's eyes begin to roll.

"Brother Man, I'm fine, maybe I didn't sleep yesterday, okay?"

Seeing that almost the entire venue was staring at him, Fang Yi smiled bitterly, put the jade pendant in his hand on the booth, and said to the host who was staring at him: "I'm really sorry, let's go down ...... now"

"Young man, life must be temperate...... An old man in his sixties walked off the stage from Fang Yi's side, at this time, the time for their last group of appraisals had arrived, and everyone on the stage also put down the objects in their hands one after another.

"Immeasurable Heavenly Venerable, Dao Master, I am wronged......"

Hearing this sentence, which is often used by fat men to fight three cannons, Fang Yi wanted to cry without tears, and on the way back to his seat after he stepped off the stage, the eyes cast everywhere made him deeply feel the malice of this world.
