This is a gray, package-like object. Upon examining it closely, it turns out to be a single piece without any seams, clearly man-made, yet it seems perfectly natural.
Using Divine Thought to inspect it, this object must have been refined using special thods and materials, as Divine Thought cannot penetrate it, making it impossible to sense what’s inside.
Although Zheng Yi doesn’t have much experience in appraising goods, he can tell from the aura of age emanating from this package that it has been around for quite a while.
Yet, it doesn’t appear to have many characteristics. For a mont, Zheng Yi is unsure what exactly this is.
"Where did this co from?! What kind of thing is this?"
After a mont, Zheng Yi asked.
"This thing is reportedly called a Gambling Treasure Pouch skin, acquired by a humble man from a bankrupt individual in Dark Blood City."
"It is said to be an item passed down within the family. I also inquired a bit, that bankrupt individual’s ancestors had produced so Foundation Establishnt Stage cultivators, but unfortunately later fell into decline, and the family is now destitute with almost all valuable items sold off."
"The reason for putting this Gambling Treasure Pouch up for sale is because his grandson was found to possess a Spirit Root, prompting the sale to support his future cultivation."
"Many were interested initially, but the old man called for a price that scared many away. Ultimately, a humble man acquired the item at seventy percent of its original price."
"I heard that you enjoy collecting various items and have issued orders that the leader of the trade caravan has the discretion to purchase special treasures. A humble man estimated that this barely counts as a treasure, so a humble man added a few Spirit Stones myself and bought it to present to you."
The chubby young man has decent strength, though his aura is unstable, clearly benefiting from the recent enhancent of his family’s power, and his breakthrough happened not long ago.
"Hmm, you are thoughtful."
Zheng Yi turned and instructed Qi Lin, "Add his na to the Blood Ignition Plan next ti."
As soon as these words were spoken, the young man was overjoyed and imdiately expressed his gratitude with a salute.
"Thank you for your support!"
"Go!"
With a wave of the hand, Qi Lin took the young man away, leaving Zheng Yi alone in the hall.
Looking at the Gambling Treasure Pouch in his hand, Zheng Yi’s expression was sowhat peculiar, not expecting to actually see the gambling treasure of the Immortal Realm.
In fact, Zheng Yi had heard of gambling treasures while mingling in the Immortal Domain Profound Void City among the Loose Cultivators. They are divided into several major categories: those with gambling stones, those with Illusion Spirit Blind Boxes, those with Demon Boxes, while such Gambling Treasure Pouch skins are rarely seen.
The tradition of gambling treasures is said to be inherited from ancient tis, with so unique thods preventing cultivators from using Divine Thought to inspect directly. It looks like an ordinary package but hides sothing entirely untraceable inside.
Inside might be a real treasure, a handful of sand, nothing at all, or even a prank by predecessors; so have even opened to find a pile of feces.
This gambling treasure once circulated for a while in the Great Yi City Immortal Realm, dating back at least five hundred years, so even over a thousand years old.
The production technique that prevents cultivators from invading with Divine Thought has already been lost, originally initiated by an ancient sect known as the Heaven-Stealing Sect, which was all the rage at one ti.
Many exploited this gambling trait to buy low and sell high, hedging profits. So high-level Loose Cultivators sealed so of their possessions inside, letting them circulate outside, hoping for a fortunate fate.
Later, the Heaven-Stealing Sect collapsed overnight and vanished, the craftsmanship to create gambling treasures also beca extinct, leaving the ones on the market to be both genuine and fake.
However, generally, they are still circulating among Low-Tier Cultivators or Loose Cultivators, as most gambling treasures rarely contain genuinely precious legacy items. It is uncommon for genuinely senior experts to do such a thing.
After all, with such ti and effort, wouldn’t it be better to pass them onto offspring, disciples, and grand-disciples rather than gifting them to outsiders?
But nothing is absolute. Many years ago, Loose Cultivators did indeed have strokes of luck, successfully picking out precious treasures from gambling treasures, obtaining the legacy of a Purple Mansion master, or a Golden Core Cultivator, or even life-extending Elixir Pills, and even Magical Treasure Weapons, etc...
Thus, this gambling ga popular among Loose Cultivators was once quite fashionable, with many trying their luck.
The Illusion Spirit Blind Boxes, gambling stones, and Demon Boxes were also hyped to sky-high prices for so ti; many Loose Cultivators gambled on chance, betting their entire fortune.
However, luck belongs to only a few, with most gambling treasures yielding either useless items or nothing at all, causing those gambling cultivators to be bankrupt, families broken, and holess people countless.
Gradually, the market was filled with fake and shoddy products, all tricks to fool people, nothing like the ancient Heaven-Stealing Sect craftsmanship, leading to disbelief.
This caused the once extrely popular gambling treasure industry to gradually turn into a heads-up and gimmicks at so high-end auctions, disappearing slowly among ordinary Loose Cultivators.
Zheng Yi hasn’t been in the lilight for long, though he has heard about gambling treasures, he has not seen such high-end stuff, which is why he didn’t react imdiately upon seeing the Gambling Treasure Pouch.
"According to the legend, Heaven-Stealing Sect’s gambling treasures cannot be forcibly opened, with hidden chanisms inside that, once triggered, will destroy the contents!"
"Moreover, the thods are quite sneaky, leaving no ti for redy, such as Miracle Elixirs being directly polluted by hidden filth, Ganoderma Treasure Ginseng being corroded away by Corpse-Dissolving Water, Secret Technique Manuals being scrambled and incorrect, and various other sinister tricks forcing you to partake in the gamble, as was the principle of this sect, Heaven-Stealing Sect..."
