Chapter 42 The Celestial Master's Divine Treasure of Cutting Open Source

In the northern part of the eastern wilderness, there is Zhangjia Stone Village.

Qin Feng's return caused a sensation in the village.

"Immortal"

"We thought you had already left!"

The Zhang family members all excitedly stepped forward to greet them.

"I have something urgent to take care of and need to go out for a while, but I really do have to leave."

With a wave of his hand, Qin Feng neatly stacked a 3333-jin (approximately 1150 grams) of Yuan (a type of mineral), which was piled up on the Shizhai Square. The colorful pile was quite impressive.

For the ordinary people in Shizhai, they had never seen so many sources in their lives.

"Immortal, what is this...?" The Zhang family members were also stunned.

"These are the spoils I've gathered from my trip to the Southern Ming Cult. Everyone, take them and divide them up," Qin Feng said casually.

"No, no, no, absolutely not!"

"We have already received so many favors from the immortals, how can we possibly ask for more from them!"

"Life in the village is barely manageable. Now that the Southern Ming Cult is gone, things will definitely get better and better."

None of the villagers were blinded by the source; they all unanimously expressed their desire for Qin Feng to take it back.

Qin Feng remained silent, but with another wave of his hand, another source appeared out of thin air.

"Immortal, what do you mean by this?" Grandpa Zhang asked, his face full of confusion.

"The previous payment was compensation from the Southern Ming Cult. This payment is for the stones I purchased," Qin Feng said.

"Stone?" The villagers looked at each other in bewilderment.

"To be honest, I've been studying the Origin Book for a while now, and I've made some progress. These past few days, I've discovered some good materials in the village, which may contain rare treasures," Qin Feng said.

"So that's how it is. If the immortal takes a fancy to something, he can take it. There's no need for all this." Grandpa Zhang said decisively.

"One thing at a time." Qin Feng shook his head.

Grandpa Zhang wanted to say something more, but Zhang Qishan pulled him back and nodded.

The deal is done.

Qin Feng did not cut the stone in public, but went to the main hall of the Zhang family.

Soon, Zhang Qishan moved all the dozen or so stones that Qin Feng had selected into the house.

Looking at the pile of stones in front of him, Qin Feng couldn't help but rub his hands together, feeling the excitement of opening a blind box.

He knew many secrets about the world of Shrouding the Heavens, but some of the minor details had become hazy in his memory.

For example, he knew that the Zhang family's stone artifacts contained treasures, but he wasn't sure which ones, which only added to his anticipation.

"These are all stone artifacts from my family that my benefactor chose? Is this a coincidence?" Zhang Qishan asked in surprise.

"Of course not. Your ancestor was a Source Master, and these stone artifacts are very likely left by him," Qin Feng said.

Upon hearing this, Zhang Qishan suddenly understood, and at the same time, he couldn't help but feel endless admiration.

"My benefactor has only had the Source Book for a few days, yet he can already see the extraordinary nature of these stones. In comparison, I have been studying them for over twenty years, but I still only have a superficial understanding. Indeed, only a genius like my benefactor can revive the glory of the Source Master lineage."

Qin Feng grinned, thinking to himself that although he had only been there for a few days, he had spent more than seven years on it.

Furthermore, the reason he knew that the Zhang family's stone artifact contained profound secrets was not because he used Origin Techniques to explore it, but because of the foresight of a time traveler.

"Alright, let's begin cutting the stone."

Qin Feng casually picked up a carving knife, wrapped it with divine power, and first set his sights on a stone mill.

Sizzle~ Sizzle~ Sizzle~

Stone chips flew everywhere, and soon, most of the stone skin on the outside of the stone roller was peeled off.

Qin Feng gradually slowed down, carefully peeling away the stone skin.

A moment later, a pleasant fragrance wafted from the fist-sized stone.

pat!

The last piece of stone peeled off, revealing a pink fleshy fruit that emitted a rich, refreshing fragrance. Just smelling it was invigorating, making one's pores open up as if one had eaten a ginseng fruit.

"This...this...could it be the legendary divine medicine?" Zhang Qishan exclaimed in surprise.

"It's not a divine medicine, it's the Human Essence Fruit, which can prolong the life of powerful beings." Qin Feng took out a jade box and carefully sealed the first treasure.

Fortunately, Qin Feng had raided the Southern Ming Cult's home once and collected a large amount of various items, including many high-quality jade containers.

Otherwise, Qin Feng really couldn't find anything right now to prevent the essence of the Human Essence Fruit from leaking out.

"The stone artifacts left behind by Master Yuan are indeed extraordinary. If you have any regrets, you may bring them up." Qin Feng looked at Zhang Qishan.

"What are you saying, my benefactor? These stone tools already belong to you. Whatever we cut out is none of our business," Zhang Qishan said earnestly.

"Then I'll continue." This time, Qin Feng chose a millstone.

Swish swish!

Golden carving knives danced in the air.

The grayish stone skin peeled off layer by layer.

When the blade reached the center of the millstone, a divine light suddenly appeared, more dazzling than the sun, so bright that people couldn't open their eyes.

With the stone peeling away, the very center of the millstone resembled a small golden sun, so bright that it was almost impossible to look directly at it.

Divine Source!

Without a doubt!

This is a source formed from the spiritual energy that existed since the beginning of time. It will never sink and possesses the purest and most original essence of heaven and earth. It is a rare treasure in this world.

Qin Feng reached out and grasped the divine source in his hand. Instantly, the holy essence actively entered his body, as if to wash away all filth, making him feel comfortable all over, as if bathed in a spring breeze, as if his body was being baptized.

With the example set by Yuan Guo and Shen Yuan, Qin Feng became even more confident and continued his great work of cutting stones.

However, he seemed to have run out of luck, as he opened three stone artifacts in a row, all of which were empty.

It wasn't until the fourth item that it was finally shipped again, with a Divine Source Bean and... a small tuft of red hair cut off. The color was as eerie as blood, and it exuded a strange aura.

Qin Feng was already immune to the red-haired monster, but Zhang Qishan, standing to the side, was greatly surprised.

As a descendant of the Zhang family, he couldn't possibly be unaware that after the Zhang family ancestor disappeared four thousand years ago, only a tuft of red hair remained in the original location.

"My benefactor, there's something strange about this stone; there might be a problem." Zhang Qishan's face turned ashen.

"It's nothing." Qin Feng picked up a tuft of red hair, casually tossed it into the Divine Furnace of Li Huo, and then activated his divine power to refine it into ashes.

Next, Qin Feng opened the stone tools and obtained a clump of red hair, a bit of divine source fragments, a petrified plant, a petrified earth-life fruit, a petrified sapling, the head of the Primordial King, another bit of divine source fragments, and a pile of sand...

"Damn it!"

Qin Feng couldn't help but curse. Almost all of Zhang Lin's treasured stones had been destroyed by the Source God and Source Ghost.

Qin Feng had thought that if the plot had been cut open six thousand years earlier, there would have been a surprise, but unexpectedly, it was too late.

"wrong!"

Qin Feng glanced at the petrified sapling and noticed that a small section of its roots remained.

Although it's short, if properly nurtured, it might be able to grow back.

Qin Feng quickly took out the jade bottle and soaked the sapling's divine root in it.

"Do your best, leave the rest to fate."

Qin Feng put away the mutton-fat jade bottle, then broke open all the remaining stone tools in one go, and once again obtained the life essence and a purple stone gall.

Compared to other treasures, this is what Qin Feng truly wants.

For Master Yuantian, the stone gall is a priceless treasure, irreplaceable by anything, because it can help him achieve the Great Perfection of Yuantian Divine Awakening.

The Book of Origin clearly records that if a divine stone forms a gallbladder, it can brighten both eyes, greatly enhance divine perception, and naturally give rise to the Heavenly Eye.

When one attains the highest level of divine awareness, reaching perfection, one can develop the Heavenly Eye, enabling one to see through illusions and directly perceive the origin.

In the story, Ye Hei gained X-ray vision thanks to this stone gall, and enjoyed a great deal of visual feast.

Qin Feng is about to follow Ye Hei's path to make a fortune in the Holy City, and before that, he naturally needs to fully arm himself with his eyes.

"Oh right, I almost forgot."

Qin Feng placed all the treasures in one place.
