Dragon's Origin

Chapter 784: Searching for the Exquisite Pavilion (Continued 1)

Master Qian was very low-key in the capital. It's true that he had extensive social connections, but only with the grandmasters of the capital. Before Wang Sheng found a way for them to make money, those grandmasters, while not exactly impoverished, had little surplus money left over after buying materials.

This can be seen from the dilapidated state of the entire Tiangong Workshop. At that time, they didn't know how to make money, only how to bury their heads in studying skills.

Master Qian interacted with these grandmasters, even sometimes pretending to need their help, so naturally it was impossible for him to appear wealthy. Therefore, he didn't even have a Naring(纳戒: Naring, a kind of ring) at first. It was only after he became a Grand Appraisal Master that he could justifiably wear several Naring(纳戒: Naring, a kind of ring).

This time, when he came out to attack Wang Sheng, Master Qian didn't have many Naring(纳戒: Naring, a kind of ring) on him, only three. Unlike Wang Sheng, he didn't need to carry a lot of equipment with him. The water and food in two Naring(纳戒: Naring, a kind of ring) were enough for Master Qian to live for two months. Only one Naring(纳戒: Naring, a kind of ring) was truly valuable.

The most important Naring(纳戒: Naring, a kind of ring), on the other hand, contained the fewest items. A folding fan designed by Wang Sheng and crafted by the grandmasters, a token, a key that looked very complicated in this world but ridiculously simple in Wang Sheng's eyes, and an Eight-Phase Exquisite Seal Box. This seal box was more complex and advanced than any seal box Wang Sheng had seen on the market.

Of course, this was only limited to this world. Compared to the super-complex safes that Wang Sheng had learned about and seen on Earth, this Eight-Phase Exquisite Seal Box was only in the category of intermediate mechanical locks. Without electric power, no chip encryption, and simple self-destruction methods, it was not a problem for Wang Sheng at this moment.

However, when A Qi saw the Eight-Phase Exquisite Seal Box that Wang Sheng took out, she couldn't help but exclaim. She rushed over, held it in her hands, carefully examined it, scrutinized it, almost worshipfully: "There really is an Eight-Phase Exquisite Seal Box in this world, heavens! I've seen the real thing!"

Looking at A Qi's fan-girl-like expression and actions, Wang Sheng couldn't help but support his forehead with one hand. Alas! Different experiences are like this. Something that looks very ordinary in Wang Sheng's eyes, A Qi actually sees as a treasure.

The Eight-Phase Exquisite Seal Box, as the name suggests, requires eight keys to be turned simultaneously in different directions to open it. The highest level Wang Sheng has heard of on the market is the Six-Phase Exquisite Seal Box, and he has only seen and touched the Four-Phase Exquisite Seal Box. This is the first time he has seen or heard of an Eight-Phase one.

There are only these four things: a folding fan, a token, a key, and a seal box. Needless to say, the folding fan is a weapon and usually used for affected elegance. The token indicates identity because the patterns on it are delicate, and there is also the easily recognizable word "Pavilion Master" in the middle. The key doesn't know what lock it opens, it doesn't look like one of the keys to the seal box, it doesn't match. As for the seal box, it must contain the most important things, otherwise, there is no need to be so cautious.

For the time being, the token is useless to Wang Sheng. Without finding the real location of the Exquisite Pavilion, even the most honorable token is just a metal plate, useless. The key is even more impossible to start with. Without knowing where the keyhole is, it is naturally impossible to be useful. The only thing that might be useful is probably the exquisite seal box.

"My Lord, you wouldn't..." Watching Wang Sheng take the Eight-Phase Exquisite Seal Box and carefully ponder it, A Qi suddenly thought of an incredible possibility and asked a little incredulously: "You don't want to open it, do you?"

"How can I know what's inside if I don't open it?" Wang Sheng answered subconsciously while turning the exquisite seal box and observing it.

"But this is..." A Qi suddenly didn't know how to describe her mood. The legendary Eight-Phase Exquisite Seal Box that even all the grandmasters in the world couldn't open, how could her man say it so matter-of-factly?

"What?" Wang Sheng raised his head and asked in confusion. He was too engrossed in his research just now and didn't hear what A Qi was asking.

A Qi was suddenly stunned and didn't know how to answer. How many times has Wang Sheng shown miracles? Countless impossible things have all become reality in his hands. Since the previous things were all possible, then why can't the Eight-Phase Exquisite Seal Box in front of him be possible?

"I just wanted to ask you, do you need help?" A Qi suddenly relaxed and then asked Wang Sheng with a smile.

"Not for now." Wang Sheng smiled, letting his woman rest assured. Looking at A Qi's face, Wang Sheng's mind changed: "Help me get a flat table."

What makes A Qi happiest is that Wang Sheng asks her to do things, which makes her feel that she can help Wang Sheng. Hearing this, she immediately started to busy with a beaming smile, while Wang Sheng continued to study the exquisite seal box.

As expected of something used by the real Pavilion Master of the Exquisite Pavilion, it is indeed a high-end product. There is even a protective formation inside. Every once in a while, the user needs to input spiritual energy into it to maintain the operation of the formation. Otherwise, the formation will automatically start after the spiritual energy is consumed to a certain extent, completely destroying the things inside. The same goes for other methods. In short, as long as the spiritual energy is consumed to a certain extent, the formation will start mercilessly, and there is no way to block it through the outer shell of the seal box.

The designer has simply racked his brains to set traps. The design of needing eight locks to be turned simultaneously to open it is also eye-catching. Any connection here that is broken or violently broken by external force will instantly trigger the formation. Wang Sheng's Seven-Character Principle's Main Formula of "Xing"(行: 行, one of the seven characters) has just explored it, and the power of the formation explosion is enough to blow a Ninth-Level expert into pieces.

The ingenious conception, the grandmaster-level craftsmanship, and Wang Sheng, who used the Seven-Character Principle to explore the structure of the seal box, also marveled. It is indeed a treasure among treasures, a masterpiece, worthy of its name.

A Qi prepared quickly. There was already a wooden table she had built for eating when Wang Sheng went to sea, just need to put it in place. Now, A Qi looked at the appreciative expression on Wang Sheng's face from time to time, and her heart was filled with happiness. How wonderful would it be if there were only the two of them in this world?

Wang Sheng put the exquisite seal box on the table, moved his hands, and then took out eight metal wires from the Naring(纳戒: Naring, a kind of ring). These were specially made by Tie Lao(铁老: old Tie) at Wang Sheng's request, just in case, but now they came in handy.

A Qi widened her eyes, staring carefully at Wang Sheng's every move, holding her breath, not daring to make a sound, for fear of disturbing Wang Sheng. Watching Wang Sheng holding a thin metal wire in each finger, eight metal wires simultaneously probed into the eight keyholes under Wang Sheng's control.

Is my Lord really going to open the legendary Eight-Phase Exquisite Seal Box alone? A Qi directly covered her mouth, for fear of making a sound, and looked at Wang Sheng's movements carefully, and her heart was also filled with anticipation.
