450 Tianji Treasure Blueprint
A thin scrap of paper rippled and swayed within the transparent crystal, furling and unfurling extremely nimbly.
"What is this?" Qiao Mu gasped in shock.
"Tianji Treasure Blueprint!" The two youths spoke in unison, equally as shocked.
"What is the Tianji Treasure Blueprint?" Qiao Mu tugged on the corner of Mo Lian's sleeve.
"When speaking about the Tianji Treasure Blueprint, we have to first mention Master Tianji. He was a very extraordinary mechanisms and concealed weapons master from three hundred years ago." Duan Yue butted in and said, "This person was well-versed in the mastery of mechanisms and concealed weapons and possessed very intricate craftsmanship. As I said, the method to create this kind of concealed weapon box had long been lost, and I had been wondering who made this. So it turned out to be him."
"Mastery of mechanisms and concealed weapons? Then this whatever-blueprint is actually just a secret tome about mechanisms and concealed weapons?" It really was bizarre. Why did the Holy Water Sect even have this?
"Then this thing is definitely useless to me." Qiao Mu was deflated. She didn't understand mechanisms nor concealed weapons, so why would she want this toy?
"I'll give it to you guys! You can have it to research!" The little fellow unhappily pushed that transparent crystal towards Mo Lian and Duan Yue.
The two youths involuntarily broke into laughter.
"Qiaoqiao, do you realize the pandemonium that this Tianji Treasure Blueprint would instigate if people were to catch wind of it?" Mo Lian looked helplessly at this clueless little girl. "Where did you get this from?"
The little girl was disappointed. So what if it were to instigate a pandemonium in the Six Prefectures and Three Provinces! A lousy blueprint was completely useless to her. She couldn't get excited no matter the extent of the pandemonium it would raise.
"When I went to select mystic techniques at the Maple Pavilion, it! Followed me around like a cuckoo!" She felt depressed just talking about it. At that time, she was almost out of time, and this iron box just dug a pit for her like this!
"Oh my." This darling was unhappy! Duan Yue couldn't help feeling amused looking at her. "Let me tell you, Qiaoqiao. You really picked up a treasure this time! Truly!"
Nah! What treasure! It was a treasure for the two youths who liked to research mechanisms and concealed weapons, but to her, it was just a bullsh*t blueprint…
Looking at the little fellow's depressed face, the two youths smiled and stopped teasing her.
Mo Lian spoke, "Duan Yue is correct this time. This truly is a treasure! Because this blueprint itself is a divine weapon that Master Tianji forged with his lifetime's work."
"Huh?" Our dear Qiao Mu was confused.
This blueprint was a divine weapon? Now, what was a divine weapon?
Mo Lian couldn't help laughing as he flicked her small forehead lightly. He said, "You don't have to worry about what the heck a divine weapon is. You just need to know that it's especially amazing. Come, be a good girl and first form a contract with it. I'll help you seal the divine weapon at the same time and suppress it to a state suitable for your current cultivation, or else you won't be able to use it."
"But how about the mechanisms and concealed weapons techniques inside?"
She didn't have a bit of use for it! The little fellow asked with a conflicted expression.
"Silly!" Duan Yue chuckled. "Won't it be fine if you first contract with it and then take out the secret tome to show us? You're still hesitating when this is a divine weapon? Quickly, quickly, quickly, it'll be dawn soon if you keep hesitating!"
No matter how she looked at it, a thin scrap of paper didn't seem to look like a whatever-divine weapon!
Without much of an expression, Qiao Mu stretched out her small hand and injected a thread of mystic energy into the crystal casing that was skirting the outer layer of the blueprint.
Really, she had only injected a small portion of mystic energy, so minute that you could almost disregard it, yet the entire crystal casing immediately cracked open. The blueprint within shot up rapidly and suddenly emitted a dazzling golden light.
