Chapter 562

"It is actually the Suihou Pearl!"

Yanfei had heard of the Suihou Pearl; the reputation of the "Two Treasures of the Spring and Autumn Period" was far too great, both being rare treasures that had circulated throughout the world for a long time. She had not expected the Suihou Pearl to appear in Su Xuan's hands.

After Su Xuan spoke the name of the pearl, he picked up the Suihou Pearl from inside the box.

Although the box containing the Suihou Pearl was the most important part, he also had some interest in the pearl itself.

If the legends were correct, this pearl was a dragon pearl.

After picking up the Suihou Pearl, Su Xuan began to perceive it immediately.

"No wonder it is called one of the Two Treasures of the Spring and Autumn Period; it is indeed extraordinary!"

Things like night-luminescent pearls, while rare, were still findable in the vast world; the same applied to large ones, but not every large night-luminescent pearl could be called one of the Two Treasures of the Spring and Autumn Period.

As Su Xuan began to perceive the Suihou Pearl, he became increasingly certain of this.

Within this pearl, he sensed a mysterious and incomparable power.

This power was incredibly lofty; upon careful perception, it actually brought him a hint of trembling, much like the pressure felt by a lower-level creature facing a higher-level one.

It was fortunate that Su Xuan's strength was formidable, allowing him to perceive this wisp of power contained within the Suihou Pearl; if it were an ordinary person, it would be impossible to discern the power hidden deep within, and they would only regard it as a rare and precious night-luminescent pearl.

"Perhaps this item can help my strength advance a few more steps!"

Su Xuan's thoughts flashed, and a sharp glint immediately appeared in his eyes.

To extract this power from the Suihou Pearl, the simplest method was likely to crush the pearl with his bare hands; once the power lost its carrier, it would manifest.

But this was, after all, an incredibly precious night-luminescent pearl, and destroying it just like that was a bit of a pity.

Consequently, Su Xuan had to seek another way.

Fortunately, he had mastered the Seventy-Two Earthly Transformations, and now, having initially stepped into the "Tiangang" realm, he was gradually beginning to unlock the Tiangang Daoist arts. After a brief consideration, Su Xuan found a solution.

Among the Seventy-Two Earthly Transformations, there was a Daoist art called "Stone Penetration," which allowed one to enter metal and stone without obstruction, moving freely.

After casting this art, one could exist between void and reality, passing through metal and stone without damaging their essence.

Su Xuan immediately activated this art, and suddenly, his fingers became somewhat ethereal. Under Yanfei's gaze, his fingers reached into the Suihou Pearl.

As Su Xuan's fingers reached into the Suihou Pearl, the mysterious power hidden within seemed to have a life of its own; it immediately sensed a crisis and released a powerful force, unwilling to be seized by Su Xuan.

With the eruption of this power, the shimmering luster that had filled the room began to flicker and dim.

Yanfei felt an extremely terrifying sense of pressure, and vaguely, it seemed as if the roar of a wild beast echoed in her ears.

She looked at the Suihou Pearl in horror, "What exactly is this pressure?"

Soon, she knew.

A wisp of golden light was pinched by Su Xuan's fingers and slowly pulled out from the Suihou Pearl.

As this golden light left the Suihou Pearl, the environment in the room immediately recovered, and the shimmering light released by the Suihou Pearl filled the entire room again.

At the same time, that sense of pressure did not disappear; on the contrary, it became even more intense.

Su Xuan also noticed Yanfei's appearance of facing a formidable enemy; not wanting this power to remain in the outside world for too long, he opened his mouth and inhaled forcefully, and the golden light flew into his mouth and was swallowed.

Even though the essence of this power was extremely high, to the point that it could bring pressure to Su Xuan, it was, after all, only a single wisp and far too weak; for the current Su Xuan, it was still easily suppressed.

After this wisp of golden light was swallowed by Su Xuan, the pressure that had filled the room finally disappeared.

All that remained was the shimmering light released by the Suihou Pearl.

Although the pressure had not lasted long, Yanfei was still broken out in a cold sweat. With a look of lingering fear on her face, she asked Su Xuan in a low voice, "Master Xuantian..."

Su Xuan knew what Yanfei wanted to ask and replied, "That should be a wisp of dragon power. Although very weak, it confirms one thing: legends are not necessarily false. The Suihou Pearl may truly be related to a real dragon!"

"The power of a real dragon? In this world, there actually are dragons..."

Yanfei was very shocked to hear Su Xuan's answer.

Since she knew of the Suihou Pearl, she had naturally heard of its legends.

She had thought it was just hearsay, never expecting that such a secret was hidden within.

The Suihou Pearl contained a wisp of dragon power, which made Su Xuan think of that theatrical version. In the original work, the words of the Nine Heavens Mysterious Maiden were mentioned; even now, Su Xuan held the "Yellow Stone Heavenly Book" left in the human world by the Nine Heavens Mysterious Maiden, but the "Dragon God" only existed in the theatrical version.

Because the plot of the theatrical version differed greatly from the original, it could be called a parallel world, so Su Xuan had not taken it seriously at first.

Now, having personally felt the dragon power, Su 207 Xuan could not help but think of this.

The existence of dragon power proved that real dragons had indeed existed in this world.

If there really was a Dragon God, did that mean the things in that theatrical version also existed?

Many Loulan, the Weapon Demon God, and... the Did Chi You Sword!

Su Xuan felt that perhaps he could try to find the whereabouts of the ancient kingdom of Many Loulan.

If he could find it, it would be an unexpected surprise; if not, Su Xuan would not be disappointed.

After firmly memorizing these matters, Su Xuan regained his composure and handed the Suihou Pearl in his hand to Yanfei.

"Master Xuantian?"

Yanfei looked at the Suihou Pearl Su Xuan handed over, stunned and confused.

"This item is of no use to me anymore; I give it to you. You have been quite hardworking accompanying me to the State of Chu this time!"

Yanfei's eyes flickered; she quietly took the Suihou Pearl, and after a moment of silence, she said to Su Xuan, "Thank you, I like this gift very much!"

Although she was obsessed with cultivation and liked to pursue powerful strength, she was, after all, a woman, and she could not refuse things like pearls and jewelry.

She did not care about the origin of the Suihou Pearl; what she cared about was that Su Xuan had given it to her as a gift.
