I Can Record Wonders

Chapter 65: Four Seas Trading Association, Qinggang Cauldron

On Spirit Turtle Island, in Zuo Chen Lane, is the Qian Family.

Hidden deep within a courtyard is a concealed study.

The furnishings in the study are simple, with only a nanmu wood desk and a small glass lamp on top.

The flame in the lamp is as small as a bean, yet it illuminates the entire room.

A faint fragrance fills the room.

Anyone with discerning eyes can tell that the lamp is not burning ordinary lamp oil, but rather whale oil worth a hundred gold pieces.

Behind the desk sits a fat man. He is dressed in fine clothes and has a plump face. He bears a resemblance to Qian Duobao, none other than his father, Qian Gaoxuan, a steward of the Qian Family.

Qian Gaoxuan raises his head slightly, his face showing a hint of confusion. "The Gong Family hasn't made a move?"

Standing in front of the desk is a young member of the Qian Family, his face full of respect. "No, our people have been lying in ambush all night, but they didn't take the bait."

"They didn't take the bait?"

Qian Gaoxuan squints his eyes. "The Gong Family is nothing more than a dog. Whether it bites or not depends on its master behind it."

After saying that, he picks up a treasure box from the table. Opening the box reveals a plant with branches and leaves spread out inside.

The plant has a single flower and four leaves. The flower and leaves are all red, with a faint bloody smell emanating from them. At first glance, it looks like a group of babies huddled together.

It is precisely the "Blood Infant Grass" that Qian Gaoxuan has been longing for.

Others know that the Qian Family has been thriving in recent years, not only because of their business experience, but also because they have latched onto the thigh of the "Four Seas Trading Association."

The Four Seas Trading Association is a famous trading association in the South Sea, with business spread all over the place.

But few people know that the Four Seas Trading Association's surname is "Qian."

And the Qian Family on Spirit Turtle Island is a branch of the Four Seas Qian Family.

When Ancestral Master Ling Cong opened up Spirit Turtle Island, it relied on trade to recuperate and revitalize.

In the process, it had dealings with the Four Seas Qian Family.

The Qian Family also saw the potential of Spirit Turtle Island as a place for rare goods and decided to establish a branch here.

And this became the Qian Family in Zuo Chen Lane.

It is precisely because of this relationship that the Qian Family always has the upper hand in the Four Seas Trading Association.

During the auction of the Four Seas Trading Association a few days ago, Qian Gaoxuan took the opportunity to snatch a "Blood Infant Grass" that the Gong Family had set their sights on.

Qian Gaoxuan seems a little uncomfortable with the bloody smell in the box. He furrows his brows slightly and closes the lid again. "Blood Infant Grass... it's used to refine the 'Human Essence Pill.'"

As he speaks, he lightly taps the table with his fingers, a pensive look crossing his face.

After a moment, his gaze becomes focused, and he speaks slowly, "Have someone keep an eye on the trading association and make sure that not a single 'Blood Infant Grass' enters the market."

A confident smile appears at the corner of Qian Gaoxuan's mouth. "I want to see if the dog's master can hold back."

"When he can't hold back anymore, it will be time to negotiate."

After saying that, he opens another box, inside of which lies a yellowed piece of cloth.

...

Three days later, on a small kneeling boat.

Fu Ning opens his eyes, his expression somewhat unsatisfied.

[Wondrous Sight: Six Immortal Seaweeds

Number of visualizations: 4]

Previously, each time he swallowed a "Spirit Nourishing Pill," he could visualize the "Divine Light's Final Radiance" of the Earth Rank Sixth Grade.

Now, in addition to the "Spirit Nourishing Pill," he has also taken an "Origin Returning Pill." Unexpectedly, with the two pills combined, he barely managed to visualize the Heavenly Rank First Grade "Six Immortal Seaweeds."

After completing the visualization, not only is his Origin Sea empty, but his Primordial Spirit is also extremely exhausted.

If he were to take the medicine for a second time, the effect would be much worse.

So, at Fu Ning's current level, he can only visualize a Heavenly Rank wonder once a day.

"Amazing, truly a Heavenly Rank wonder."

"Once a day is enough, after all, this wonder only appears once a year."

"Others have to wait for a year to have a glimpse, four times would take four years, but I only took four days. This wave is not a loss."

"It took me half a month to comprehend the Earth Rank phenomenon, I wonder how many days it will take to comprehend this Heavenly Rank phenomenon."

Fu Ning is prepared for a protracted battle.

After all, it is a Heavenly Rank phenomenon, so it is only natural to contemplate it multiple times.

[Fu Ning

Age: 15

Condition: Karma (slight, cannibalism among the same kind, causing harm to heaven, increasing the difficulty of Transcending Tribulation), fatigue

Field of view: Four

Talents: Speed (Level 07%), Divination (Level 02%).

Lifespan: Approximately one hundred years

Realm: Scenic Scholar

Phenomena: Jambu Vortex (unique), Spirit Turtle's Breath (ordinary), Spirit Turtle's Primordial Breath (rare), Spirit Turtle's Shedding (rare), Divine Light's Final Radiance (peerless), Six Exquisite Immortal Seaweed (legendary)

Origin Spirit: Cloud Spirit Turtle (2nd transformation 59%), Arctic Divine Salamander (0th transformation 23%)]

During these three days, he did not neglect his cultivation.

Apart from contemplating the "Six Exquisite Immortal Seaweed" every day, most of his energy was spent on evolving his Origin Spirit.

Now, the "Arctic Divine Salamander" has already lit up two spots, and the "Cloud Spirit Turtle" has also completed more than half of its second transformation. It won't be long before it evolves again.

In addition to cultivation, Fu Ning was not idle either.

During the day, he would go clam fishing with Huoya, while listening to his stories about the hidden struggles in the Four Great Alleys.

At night, he would wait for Luo Saihu to feed on blood, and then use the Cloud Spirit Turtle to refine pills. In just three days, he had accumulated hundreds of "Origin Returning Pills."

Thinking back on these few days, Fu Ning recalled a saying: "Seek wealth and fortune amidst danger."

But for this kind of wealth and fortune, one must also have the fate to obtain it.

It completely contradicts Fu Ning's adherence to the principles of pragmatism, self-reflection, and the Three Provinces.

Compared to that, he would rather cultivate peacefully on the mountain.

The small boat gently swayed, and ripples were scattered by the waves.

The sky darkened again, but the moon became fuller.

"Is it almost a full moon again?"

Fu Ning withdrew his gaze and immediately lit the cabin lamp at the bow of the ship.

The orange fishing fire lit up, bringing a bit of vitality to this bay.

Just like the previous few days, after a cup of tea, Luo Saihu appeared on the deck.

"Master~"

"...The Qinggang Cauldron has arrived."

As soon as Luo Saihu appeared, he brought good news.

Fu Ning's gaze became restrained as he slowly turned around, only to see him holding a small cauldron in his hand.

The cauldron was only the size of a fist, entirely green, with engravings on its body and a faint glow on its surface.

Just by looking at its appearance, one could tell that it was extraordinary.

Suppressing his excitement, Fu Ning reached out and took the cauldron, instantly feeling the Origin Qi fluctuations emanating from it.

Fu Ning was surprised to find that it was a Spirit Communication Law Treasure!

He suddenly remembered that the "Fake Fu Ning" had mentioned this cauldron before, as if it was prepared to refine the "Human Yuan Pill" using this Law Treasure.

Because Yun Niang was a water-based True Monarch of the "Miao Clan."

According to the principle of "gold generates water," a gold-based cauldron must be used to maximize the medicinal properties of the "Human Yuan Pill."

If there were no surprises, the "Qinggang Cauldron" in front of him should be a gold-based Law Treasure.

After a slight speculation, Fu Ning did not inspect it on the spot, but instead flashed it away.

Unexpectedly, he had just obtained a small red clay stove, and now he had obtained a Spirit Communication Law Treasure.
