The secret of the incense burner
"Okay, don't be cowardly here, don't you just want me to help you take a look." Venerable Covered Cloud glanced at the other party, and then said, "Bring the incense burner." ”
Hearing this, Shi Jiu was overjoyed and immediately handed over the incense burner in his hand.
Venerable Covered Cloud did not take it directly, but gently supported it with his left hand, and the incense burner automatically suspended in front of his eyes, and constantly rotated up and down, left and right, while Venerable Covered Cloud stared intently.
After a long while, he asked slowly, "This incense burner, what did you just put in it and light it?" ”
"It's sandalwood incense, I bought it on the street."
"Sandalwood incense? No wonder you can't discover its secrets. Venerable Covered Cloud looked like he took it for granted, "But if you can detect it, it means that your eyesight is okay." ”
"Senior, you mean this incense burner is really a treasure?" Shi Jiu was excited.
Venerable Clouds' words clearly affirmed the value of the incense burner, and also revealed the way he knew how to open the incense burner.
"It's a treasure to you, and there should be a secret hidden in it." Venerable Cloud Cover nodded.
"Secret? What secret? Shi Jiu was even more curious.
"Senior, you must know how to open this incense burner, right?"
"Of course, otherwise how can you call me senior?" Venerable Cloud Covering glanced at each other proudly
"The method is very simple, it is the same as what you did before, adding something to the incense burner and burning it. The incense burner naturally has to burn things and smoke incense in it, otherwise why is it called an incense burner? ”
"But senior, I have burned a large piece of sandalwood incense before, and there is no other change except for the overflowing aroma." Shi Jiu asked puzzled.
"That's because you're burning the wrong thing." Venerable Covering Cloud glanced at Shi Jiu, and then said: "Although the surface material of this incense burner is ordinary, there is a small mini formation engraved inside, and it is impossible to open the formation with something that burns ordinarily, you must use something full of spiritual energy."
"Something full of aura? It can't be a natural treasure, right? Isn't that too much to pay? Shi Jiu said with some surprise.
Venerable Covering Cloud nodded: "If you want to know the secret of the incense burner, you must spend some money, there are not so many good things in the world that are not earned for nothing." You've missed this incense burner, do you expect to know the secrets inside for no apparent reason? ”
"I do have the treasures of heaven and earth, but I am reluctant to burn them."
There are a few heaven and earth spiritual objects in this Sumeru space, such as the dark star gourd, the spiritual saliva heart essence, but it is impossible to let Shi Jiu use it to burn.
He didn't know how precious the secret in the incense burner was, but how precious the Dark Star Gourd and the Ambergris Heart Essence were, this was something Shi Jiu knew, and it was impossible to sacrifice these two treasures in order to get the secrets in the incense burner, and in addition, the Dark Star Gourd and the Spirit Saliva Heart Essence had already been scheduled by him to repair the Cloud Covering Shadow Heart Gate, and it was impossible to use them for incineration.
"Well, let me think about any more useless treasures that I can burn."
Shi Jiu looked around, looking at all the objects suspended in the Sumeru space one by one.
Basically, all his valuable treasures are here, the Dark Star Gourd, the Spiritual Saliva Heart Essence, the Yu Heart Bead, and so on.
Soon, a pale yellow wooden box appeared in his field of vision.
"yes, how did I forget it!"
Shi Jiu slapped his head, and then with a big move, the pale yellow wooden box not far away floated over.
The wooden box is very simple, and the pale yellow surface has faint traces of avenue textures, which are not artificially carved but naturally formed, and exude a faint wood fragrance.
"This wooden box is actually made of post-civil engineering, little guy, you really have a lot of treasures!"
Venerable Covered Cloud looked at the wooden box in Shi Jiu's hand, and instantly saw its material.
"It's indeed a box made of post-civil engineering." Shi Jiu nodded and said, "Senior, it should be okay for me to use this box to burn, right?" ”
The wooden box was obtained from the leader of the bandits in Blackwater City, and it contained parchment with the Black Mangfist recorded.
"Houtumu is a kind of innate divine wood, which is naturally feasible."
"Great, that's the problem."
Shi Jiu took out the parchment paper in the wooden box, then carefully cut off a piece of the wooden box, and then put it into the incense burner, and then tried to light it with a flint, but he tried many times without success, and he was so anxious that he sweated.
"Little guy, don't waste your efforts, ordinary flint can't be ignited at all, if the divine wood can be lit so easily, then it is not a divine wood." Venerable Cloud Covering smiled.
"If you can't do it, then didn't I do it for nothing?"
"Alright, I'll have to go out myself!" Seeing that Shi Jiu looked anxious, Venerable Covering Cloud no longer watched the play from the sidelines, and said directly.
Hearing that Venerable Covering Cloud was willing to help, Shi Jiu immediately smiled and respectfully handed over the incense burner.
Venerable Covering Cloud still didn't answer, but let the incense burner levitate in mid-air, and then with a little index finger of his right hand, a red light shot straight into the back earth in the incense burner.
After two sounds, a pile of fire was born on the back earth, and the next moment a special fragrance permeated the entire Sumeru space, and the previous sandalwood incense disappeared.
"It's so fragrant, I feel like my soul can smell this fragrance as well."
Shi Jiu was a little intoxicated by the aroma of Hou Tumu, and he couldn't extricate himself.
"It's not surprising that for low-level cultivators, the fragrance emitted by the Divine Tree can indeed make people intoxicated." Venerable Cloud Covering smiled.
"But if you continue like this, you'll miss the secret of the incense burner."
"Is the secret of the incense burner about to appear?" Shi Jiu immediately opened his eyes from his intoxication and looked closely at the incense burner in mid-air.
Five minutes later, the incense burner that had not moved suddenly turned red, and then a miniature formation appeared in the incense burner, and after the formation was stable, hundreds of red fonts floated out of it one after another.
"Soul Forging Method." Shi Jiu read the top line lightly.
"Little one, you're lucky, this is a method of exercising the power of the soul, hurry up and write it down, these words won't last long." Venerable Cloud Covering said from the side.
In fact, there is no need for the other party to say, Shi Jiu is already memorizing these hundreds of words.
As the back earth in the incense burner burned out, hundreds of red fonts disappeared completely, and the incense burner returned to its original state.
Shi Jiu closed his eyes, silently comprehending the scriptures of the Soul Forging Method in his heart.
The Venerable Covered Cloud on the side did not make a sound, and stayed quietly beside him.
Half an hour later, Shi Jiu opened his eyes and a smile appeared on his face.
"How? This soul forging method is good, right? Venerable Cloud Covering asked with a smile.
"It's not just good, it's just great, it's perfect for me now." Shi Jiu nodded vigorously.
Because he had already memorized the scriptures of the entire Soul Forging Method by heart, Shi Jiu had a preliminary understanding of the scriptures.
This is a soul-breaking scripture for Soul Realm cultivators, especially for those who are born with strong soul power, and Shi Jiu fully meets these two points, it is simply tailor-made for him.
