"Mm?"

Su Shi'er squinted his eyes, looking at the item the old man had taken out.

It was a white object, no more than an inch long, resembling an eye.

Strangely, while it looked like an eye, it had no pupil. It was covered in fine cracks, its luster dim, much like a Low Grade Ritual Artifact on the verge of being scrapped.

Su Shi'er's brows furrowed deeply, his first reaction being that this old man might be playing a trick on him.

Feeling a bit annoyed, he was about to refuse when he saw Jiang Feixue secretly giving him a signal.

This surprised him greatly, prompting him to quickly use the Heavenly Eye Technique to take a closer look.

With that glance, his pupils immediately contracted.

From this object, he sensed a thick spiritual aura.

The richness of this aura was almost comparable to what he had seen from the Five Element Spirit Beads.

This thing was not simple!

Su Shi'er only glanced at it before quickly looking away, asking calmly, "What is this thing?"

A flicker of surprise flashed in the old man's eyes.

This young man was not simple! So young, yet so composed and mature in his actions!

Unfortunately, no matter how clever you are, I don't believe you won't be tempted.

With a shift in his thoughts, the old man immediately said seriously, "Fellow Daoist, since you practice the Heavenly Eye Technique, you should be able to see that this item contains the spiritual aura typical of a Spiritual Artifact."

"Strictly speaking, this can no longer be called a Ritual Artifact; it is a pseudo-Spiritual Artifact, somewhere between a Ritual Artifact and a Spiritual Artifact."

"This is a good item. If I didn't need spirit plants to find someone for Pill Refining to enhance my cultivation, I wouldn't trade it for anything..."

As soon as the old man finished speaking, Jiang Feixue pursed her lips and said, "Hey, old man! Calling it a pseudo-Spiritual Artifact is a bit much, isn't it? This thing has lost most of its spirituality; at best, it's just a Low Grade Ritual Artifact!"

"Besides, what is this broken thing even for?"

"Cough, cough..." Hearing Jiang Feixue's words, the old man's face turned red, revealing an embarrassed expression.

You might be reading a pirated copy. Look for the official release to support the author.

Even he didn't know what this treasure was for.

He could only shrink his neck and say awkwardly, "That may be true, but the spiritual aura on it is genuine. Even if you don't know its use, it could still be very beneficial for nurturing other Ritual Artifacts, right?"

"How about this, I'll add this treasure map to the deal, and you give me twenty spirit plants, how about it?"

In the end, the old man frowned, looking pitiful.

"Hmm..." Jiang Feixue pondered for a moment, then turned to Su Shi'er, "Brother Zhu, this old man seems quite pitiful, why not trade with him?"

Seeing Jiang Feixue like this, Su Shi'er immediately knew that she must recognize this item.

So, he pretended to be helpless and nodded, "Alright! Let's trade. Which spirit plants do you want? I have hundred-year ginseng, hundred-year astragalus, hundred-year lingzhi..."

Su Shi'er began listing about ten types of spirit plants to the old man.

"Ginseng, astragalus, lingzhi, du ruo, and shan nai, four of each!" The old man beamed with joy, eagerly shouting.

Su Shi'er maintained a calm demeanor, quickly took out the spirit plants and handed them over, while also taking the eye artifact and the sheepskin map.

Throughout the process, he kept using the Heavenly Eye Technique, wary of any tricks from the old man.

Fortunately, everything went smoothly.

After receiving the spirit plants, the old man quickly left.

Watching the old man's figure disappear, Su Shi'er then turned to Jiang Feixue.

"Brother Jiang, do you know what this item is for?"

Jiang Feixue, full of self-satisfaction, smiled and said, "Of course! I'm a top-notch artifact refiner; others might not know, but it can't stump me!"

"Please enlighten me, Brother Jiang!" Su Shi'er smiled, asking cooperatively.

"Enlighten is too strong a word. If I'm not mistaken, this item is called the Eye of Illusion Break, an extremely rare eye-type pseudo-Spiritual Artifact."

"Once activated, it can emit a divine sense glare, directly attacking the opponent's consciousness."

"Brother Zhu, you've struck gold this time!"

Jiang Feixue crossed her arms, smiling happily. Although the item was Su Shi'er's, she seemed even happier than if she had obtained it herself.

"What? Divine sense glare?!" Su Shi'er was shocked upon hearing this.

He was no longer a novice in cultivation; divine sense was something only Foundation Establishment cultivators could develop, and sword flight relied on it.

And to project divine sense out of the body for an attack, only legendary Golden Elixir cultivators could achieve that.

"Brother Jiang, are you sure? A divine sense attack, wouldn't even Foundation Establishment cultivators be unable to handle it?"

Jiang Feixue continued to explain with a smile, "Brother Zhu, it's not that exaggerated!"

"The power of this divine sense glare is limited; at most, it can cause some minor trouble for Foundation Establishment cultivators."

"Moreover, this pseudo-Spiritual Artifact is severely damaged. After repairs, it can only be used three times at most."

Three uses? Able to cause some trouble for Foundation Establishment cultivators?

Su Shi'er's heart trembled, and he quickly asked, "Then how can this item be repaired?"

Jiang Feixue smiled lightly, "It's simple. Look at this Eye of Illusion Break; doesn't it look like an eye socket without a pupil?"

"You just need to find a demonic beast's eyeball and refine it into the socket!"

"The stronger the demonic beast was in life, the more powerful the divine sense glare will be after refining. If you can find an eyeball from a demonic beast comparable to a Foundation Establishment stage, it could indeed cause significant harm to a Foundation Establishment cultivator!"

In terms of artifact refining, Jiang Feixue clearly knew a lot, effortlessly sharing various information.

But while she spoke without much thought, Su Shi'er listened intently.

Hearing the last sentence, Su Shi'er's heart trembled again, his heartbeat accelerating.

At this moment, he felt that this item was tailor-made for him.

After all, in his storage ring lay the corpse of a Fire Cloud Python, comparable to a mid-stage Foundation Establishment cultivator.

He already had plans for the Fire Cloud Python's bones, but he hadn't expected its eyes could also be useful.

"Brother Jiang, you've helped me once again!" Su Shi'er smiled, cupping his hands in gratitude toward Jiang Feixue.

"Hehe, Brother Zhu, you're being too formal. You saved my life; helping you with a small matter is the least I can do, right?"

"Between us brothers, should we really be so formal? Let's quickly take out that treasure map. If it shows the location of the Golden Sacred Spirit Spring, we should go take a look."

Jiang Feixue chuckled, tiptoeing to wrap an arm around Su Shi'er's neck, patting his shoulder in a brotherly manner.

However, smelling the faint fragrance emanating from her, Su Shi'er wasn't sure whether to regard her as a man or a woman.

For a moment, he felt a bit awkward.

Then he smiled lightly and quickly unfolded the sheepskin map.

The map's routes were clear, marking the Golden Sacred Spirit Spring deep within a poisonous marsh in Yunmengze.

"A vile pit?! That old man really had ill intentions. The Golden Sacred Spirit Spring is a sacred item; how could it be in such a place?"

Jiang Feixue craned her neck to glance at the map, immediately realizing, pursing her lips and grumbling in dissatisfaction.
