Chapter 870

Thinking about it this way, this was indeed a good job.

It's just that I don't know if joining this organization requires a lot of cumbersome rules.

Before he could ask, the stall owner first said: "How about this, to show sincerity, I have dozens of sealed secret books here. Take a look. If you can crack them, you can choose any one."

"Aren't you afraid that I'll run away after choosing? Anyway, you don't know my true identity."

Hearing Zhao Xing's frank words, the stall owner saw that he was somewhat moved, and hurriedly added: "That doesn't matter. As long as you can open the sealed secret books, it means you have joined us.

And you only need to hang a name in our organization. Our association's appraisal masters don't need to be on duty. When there is a need, we will naturally contact you."

"Just hanging a name?"

Zhao Xing murmured in his heart. If this was the case, it wasn't that he couldn't consider it. This way, he could obtain treasures without exposing his identity.

"If you agree, I can take you to our shop in the black market to take a look now."

Hearing this, Zhao Xing began to consider the feasibility of this matter.

His purpose in coming this time was to find a disguise secret technique, but he hadn't found a suitable one. Now this was an opportunity. Maybe he could find a suitable one among these sealed secret techniques.

So, after pondering for a few seconds, Zhao Xing nodded slowly.

Although he had some unpleasantness with this stall owner before, they had reached an agreement after all, and he had also received the punishment he deserved.

"Very well, then please follow me. Our shop here is very close."

After speaking, the stall owner began to pack up the goods on his stall.

For him, introducing an appraisal master was much more profitable than selling items here.

And Zhao Xing also happened to have a need. The two had different thoughts and were each harboring their own ghosts, but they also happened to meet each other's needs.

Zhuyue on the side saw this, furrowed her brows slightly, leaned close to Zhao Xing, and said: "Brother, are you really going to follow this liar to his what, Heaven... Heaven-Gift Association?"

Zhao Xing raised his eyebrows at her and said: "Going to see won't make me lose a piece of meat, and don't you believe in your brother's ability?"

Zhuyue nodded seriously when she heard this: "That's true. It's impossible not to take a free bargain, and it's this stall owner who sells fakes. It's even more reason to make him suffer!"

So none of them expressed any more opinions until the stall owner finished packing his things, and everyone followed him toward the shop.

No words were spoken on the way.

Soon.

Several people arrived at a simple shop called 'Heaven-Gift Hall'. This shop only had one floor, and the space was extremely small.

After entering, several people occupied one-third of the space, and inside was a shelf with many jade slips.

Zhao Xing picked one up at random to check, only to find that the surface was sealed, and he couldn't see anything.

The stall owner hurriedly introduced: "Master, this is the jade slip of our Heaven-Gift Hall. You can choose ten to open at will. The secret techniques opened all belong to you personally."

Zhao Xing nodded when he heard this and began to carefully observe these jade slips. He originally thought these jade slips were quite easy to crack.

But he found that it wasn't that simple after starting. The seals on them were all different, and some symbols he didn't even recognize.

But fortunately, there was the Time Divine Tree in his inner world, so he could ask it directly about the ones he couldn't see through.

"The third jade slip on the left hand, I have seen this seal before, and the third one in the second row on the upper right, I know this one too."

Although he couldn't directly see through the items in the sealed jade slips, with the guidance of the Time Divine Tree, the ones Zhao Xing chose were all jade slips that could be cracked.

Soon.

Ten items were selected, and Zhao Xing began to crack them.

These seals were basically some rare seals, and there might not necessarily be good secret techniques in these jade slips.

It was just that the sects of the past liked to design seals, so they also contained some basic secret techniques. There were good ones, but there definitely wouldn't be many.

And the first one Zhao Xing started with was a Seven-Star Eight-Trigram seal array. This seal was relatively similar to the Eight-Trigram on the Great Desolate Star Domain.

Zhao Xing spent some effort to crack it, but inside was only a cultivation insight of the Sunlight Grade.

Seeing this, he was slightly disappointed. He never expected that the first one opened would be a useless secret technique.

Although the start was unfavorable, Zhao Xing was not disappointed. After all, there were nine unopened jade slips, and he thought there was still a great chance to get a good secret technique.

As a result, Zhao Xing found that this was not the case. He opened five secret techniques in a row.

As a result, the best one among them only barely reached the Venerable Realm secret technique, but it was useless to several people.

If you want to say who was the happiest on the scene, it had to be the stall owner. Although these things were useless to the people on the scene, they could be sold for money if they fell into his hands.

Especially that Venerable Realm secret technique, if operated properly, it could be sold for a good price.

Until Zhao Xing was observing the sixth jade slip, he found that the sealing method on it was relatively complex, a maze-like seal.

"According to common sense, the more complex the seal, the better the things inside. It seems that there must be a valuable secret technique in this one."

Holding such an idea, Zhao Xing began to study it carefully. However, he knew very little about this seal, and finally, he began to crack it thoroughly under the guidance of the Time Divine Tree.

Although there was help, Zhao Xing was already sweating with fine beads of sweat, carefully cracking it, for fear of a mistake and damaging the jade slip.

Seeing Zhao Xing cracking it so painstakingly this time, the gazes of several people couldn't help but gather, looking at the jade slip in his hand.

"Could it be that there is a good secret technique this time?"

Seeing Zhao Xing not cracking it quickly like before, Zhuyue couldn't help but whisper: "This time Brother has spent a stick of incense time without cracking it, and now it has taken so long without cracking it."

Yan Qi nodded in agreement: "I think so too. Brother must have encountered a challenge this time, but with Brother's ability, there is nothing he can't do."

Just like this, after another half a stick of incense, Zhao Xing's tight face gradually calmed down.

It must be said that this seal indeed posed a certain challenge to him. Even with the Time Divine Tree guiding him on the side, he spent a lot of effort.

Until the last place of the seal remained, Zhao Xing stared at it focusedly and said: "This time it must be a useful secret technique. Otherwise, this effort will be wasted!"

After speaking, Zhao Xing cracked the last layer of the seal and opened this sealed jade slip.

"Crack~"

As the seal was cracked, the hidden aura lingering on it instantly shattered, and everyone couldn't help but look over curiously.

And the jade slip that was cracked open had six characters engraved on it, instantly attracting the attention of everyone in the audience.

Seeing the name of the secret technique on it, Zhuyue, who was closest to Zhao Xing, read it out: "Fish-Dragon Witch Luo Divine Law."

The stall owner was sharp-eyed and quick-hearted. As soon as he heard the name, he recognized this secret technique: "What... this is actually a secret technique from the Western Miao Gu tribe area, and it's a high-level secret technique!"

He couldn't help but sigh that this person had made a huge profit. He never expected that he would open a secret technique that even the Miao tribe cherished very much.

Seeing the stall owner's strange tone, several people were full of confusion. Zhuyue asked curiously: "What is the function of this technique?"

"This technique is exactly the disguise secret technique you are looking for. This technique can allow people to condense a Gu insect belonging to themselves, and then fuse the Gu insect to change their appearance.

However, this Gu insect is not so easy to find. You need to find one in the Western region, or find a stall that sells Gu insects to see if there is a suitable one."

Just after he finished speaking, Zhao Xing also roughly read through the secret technique, and what was stated on it was the same as what the stall owner said.

It must be said that although the stall owner's previous actions were unreliable, his knowledge in this area was very solid. He actually heard the name and stated the effect of the secret technique.

Looking at the items required on it, Zhao Xing couldn't help but furrow his brows: "Spirit-Condensing Gu Insect, it sounds like it's not an ordinary species."

He originally thought that finding a suitable disguise secret technique could be used directly, but he never expected that this secret technique actually needed to be used with external objects to exert its true effect.

Although this was the case, Zhao Xing was very satisfied with it after reading the introduction of the secret technique, but the items needed would take some effort.

Zhao Xing moved his gaze away from the jade slip, turned to look at the stall owner, pondered for a few seconds, and asked: "Stall owner, is there a place to sell this Spirit-Condensing Gu Insect in the black market?"

The stall owner nodded and shook his head, making everyone confused.

Fortunately, just at this moment, the stall owner said: "There is indeed a place selling Gu insects, but this Spirit-Condensing Gu Insect is not an ordinary Gu insect, but an extremely rare Gu insect.

But fortunately, in three days, there will be a small auction in the black market. This kind of Gu insect might be for sale there!"

Zhao Xing, who originally didn't hold out much hope, felt a slight movement in his heart upon getting this news. There was no other way. He had searched the black market for a big circle and didn't find a suitable one, and this was the most useful one.

Although the stall owner knew that this secret technique was indeed very good, the auxiliary items needed were also expensive, but he was still very envious.

If this thing fell into his hands, he could sell it for a sky-high price at the auction.

It was just a pity that he had already promised this person to give him the items in the first ten jade slips.

"Then, this brother, continue to open them. After opening these ten, you need to help us crack three sealed jade slips for free. This is one of the rules of joining the association."

"Hmm, good, no problem."

Zhao Xing had just been thinking that this association definitely wouldn't be so selfless to give things to him for free.

Sure enough, this requirement still came out. However, Zhao Xing didn't feel disgusted by this requirement, but rather felt more at ease.

If they didn't make any demands, Zhao Xing wouldn't be at ease.

So Zhao Xing began to crack the seals of the remaining four jade slips. What was gratifying was that there was also a secret technique called 'Illusion Sea Extinction Thunder Law' which was quite precious.

Zhao Xing turned around and received it into his inner world, giving it to the Divine Thunder Ancient Bamboo to cultivate.

Finally, it was Zhao Xing's turn to exert effort. The stall owner didn't choose the ones on the shelf for him to crack, but took out three jade slips engraved with seals from his inner world and handed them to Zhao Xing.

Then he said respectfully: "Since you have opened them all, please leave the next three to you. If you see anything you like among them, you can spend energy stones to buy them. Our association members can enjoy a 20% discount!"

Hearing this, Zhao Xing smiled and said hmm, then took the jade slips and began to prepare to crack them.

As expected, the seal on this jade slip was relatively complex, and it appeared on it in the form of ancient characters.

But fortunately, Zhao Xing had the guidance of the Time Divine Tree, but it took a full stick of incense time to crack the first seal.
