Dragon Hidden in the Sky

Chapter 1793: Lan Yun's Changing State of Mind

Then Ye Qing activated his divine eyes, and at the same time, his fingers gently stroked the star-patterned stone!

Regarding star-patterned stones, Ye Qing has only mastered the first two identification methods so far. As for the other two methods, "asking for treasure" and "lighting the lamp," Ye Qing still hasn't grasped them!

According to the records on the stone slab, these two methods can confirm what treasure is contained within this star-patterned stone.

Of course, for Ye Qing, the Divine Eye and the ability to feel the patterns are almost enough to determine whether a star-patterned stone contains a treasure or not. The only difference is that he cannot determine the grade of the treasure.

Ye Qing continued to filter through the samples.

Of these four hundred-plus star-patterned stones, about a third contain treasures. The star-patterned stones from mine number forty-five are of very high quality.

This is already a huge fortune.

As Ye Qing was selecting stones, Lan Yun opened her eyes. She noticed Ye Qing occasionally tossing aside some star-patterned stones, and she frowned, asking, "What are you doing? Are you selecting star-patterned stones?"

Ye Qing nodded and said, "Put away the star-patterned stones that don't contain any treasures. They can be sold for a considerable amount of blue crystals!"

"You know the art of stone appraisal?" Lan Yun asked in confusion.

“Of course!” Ye Qing said.

"Really?" Lan Yun's expression shifted. "The art of examining star-patterned stones is extremely profound. It's said that those who understand this art usually focus on observing aura characteristics! How could you possibly know it?"

"If you don't believe me, then forget it!" Ye Qing said. "You should go and recover your strength. After I finish cutting these stones, I'm going back down into the mine to wait for Liu Qing to break through to the Great Emperor realm!"

Lan Yun didn't go to cultivate. She opened her eyes and looked at Ye Qing curiously, saying, "Ye Qing, I've observed you. You don't seem to be that old, do you? Are you a thousand years old?"

"No!" Ye Qing said as she picked through her selections.

"What about five hundred?" Lan Yun gasped and asked again!

"no!"

Lan Yun's eyes widened in shock as she asked, "You're not exaggerating, are you? What about three hundred years old?"

"no!"

Ye Qing continued to reach it.

“Impossible! You’ve already reached the Saint level, and you’ve mastered the intent of several weapons. Your sword intent has even reached the God level. How could you be under three hundred years old!” Lan Yun said.

"If you don't believe me, then so be it!" Ye Qing said.

Seeing Ye Qing's appearance, Lan Yun hesitated for a moment and then said, "Two hundred years old?"

"No, not really!" Ye Qing said. "I estimate she's around a hundred years old? I don't know for sure, it's been a long time since I celebrated my birthday, I can't remember!"

"You're just bragging!" Lan Yun rolled her eyes, then sat down cross-legged, healing her injuries as she asked, "With such a powerful trait, your strength is among the strongest in your level. Could you really be from the Seven Gods Sect?"

“That’s right!” Ye Qing said, “I’m from the Heavenly Mystery Hall!”

Lan Yun glanced at Ye Qing and said, "You're just spouting lies; you're definitely not from the Heavenly Mystery Hall!"

"Fine, don't believe me then!" Ye Qing said, pursing his lips.

Before long, Ye Qing finished making her selection.

"Are you sure these stones you've chosen will yield treasures?" Lan Yun asked. "I don't believe you could be so accurate, picking them so quickly."

"How about I sell you that whole bunch? You give me five million blue crystals per crystal. How about that? You won't lose out, will you?" Ye Qing asked.

Lan Yun fell silent.

Ye Qing ignored him and picked up one of the star-patterned stones. The divine light emanating from this stone was very strong. Ye Qing began to cut it with anticipation.

Before long, the entire star-patterned stone was covered by a red light.

Ye Qing continued cutting for a while, and in the next instant, a blazing red light burst forth.

At the same time, a fiery red battle armor appeared in front of Ye Qing!

"Eighth-grade battle armor?" Ye Qing frowned!

He never expected that he would get an eighth-grade battle armor. He thought that the light it emitted might be a ninth-grade item!

Sure enough, touching the patterns and using divine eyes can only confirm the presence of something, but the aura of treasure emanating from it is not necessarily accurate!

"You actually found something?" Lan Yun asked. "You didn't just get lucky, did you?"

"If you keep babbling, I'll throw you out!" Ye Qing said speechlessly, "Can't you just heal in peace?"

Lan Yun muttered, "You man, you have no sense of romance at all!"

"Then show me your charm?" Ye Qing asked.

Lan Yun pursed her lips and didn't say anything more!

Then, Ye Qing continued cutting!

Something will appear on every stone.

After cutting through the eighth stone, Ye Qing finally cut out a ninth-grade item, a dagger that radiated a precious light, clearly no ordinary item!

"A ninth-grade weapon!" Lan Yun exclaimed excitedly, "Ye Qing, you've obtained a ninth-grade weapon!"

"I know!" Ye Qing looked at her speechlessly and said, "Isn't this normal?"

"That's not normal at all. Rank 9 items are very rare. We usually need hundreds of stones to get one Rank 9 item! Most of them are Rank 6 or 7!" Lan Yun said. "But this time, very few of the items you got were below Rank 7. Rank 8 items made up the majority. You must have gone to Mine Pit 43 to mine them!"

Ye Qing did not deny it. He casually tossed the dagger aside and continued cutting.

Seeing Ye Qing's appearance, Lan Yun pursed her lips, her eyes flickered, and her gaze towards Ye Qing changed somewhat.

Ye Qing found something in every single stone he picked!

This means that Ye Qingzhen really knows how to appraise stones!

Moreover, his level as a Star Pattern Treasure Hunter is not low!

Ye Qing's talent shocked her even more. If she could get close to Ye Qing, perhaps by becoming his Daoist partner, she would never lack resources for cultivation in her lifetime!

Thinking of this, her gaze towards Ye Qing was almost dripping with longing!

Ye Qing seemed completely oblivious, continuing to cut.

Sure enough, even in Mine No. 46, items of Grade 9 were extremely rare.

Ye Qing cut more than ten pieces in a row, but no more ninth-grade items appeared!

However, when Ye Qing cut to the thirty-third piece, a few strokes later, an extremely dense energy instantly spread throughout the fourth layer.
