The Psychic Treasure Mirror appeared.
It determined the grade of the item.
It was a Low-Grade Mortal item.
Then, Chen Shaojun obtained basic herb identification as his reward.
"This… Do you want me to become a physician?" Chen Shaojun asked the Psychic Treasure Mirror in a daze.
Previously, he had already obtained the Four Diagnostic Methods used in traditional Chinese medicine.
With the addition of the ability to identify basic herbs, he was actually stronger than most physicians.
At the very least, he was able to prescribe medicine, as well as treat some colds and illnesses.
After that, Chen Shaojun started his second appraisal.
If possible, he naturally wanted to appraise more treasures.
Coincidentally, this time, the shopkeeper opened the storehouse and took out a lot of old materials. Even though these old materials had a smaller amount of baleful aura, and the grade of the items that were reflected on the Psychic Treasure Mirror was mostly not high, it was still better than nothing.
After all, he would obtain a reward for each appraisal. It was said that many a little made a mickle. Thus, he might eventually be able to obtain martial arts techniques, Dharma spells, or other useful techniques.
Then, he followed the prescribed process of appraising treasures.
Soon, the second treasure was appraised.
Then, the Psychic Treasure Mirror determined the grade of the item.
It was a Low-Grade Mortal item.
Then, he was rewarded with a Blood Qi Pill.
"It's a Blood Qi Pill. Not bad."
"After all, one's qi and blood are the most important things for martial artists."
Chen Shaojun put away the Blood Qi Pill.
Then, he started with the third and fourth appraisals.
He only stopped after the fifth appraisal.
It wasn't that he didn't have enough spiritual power to continue appraising treasures. However, he planned to appraise only five treasures a day.
He could appraise more treasures.
However, for an ordinary apprentice pawnbroker whose Divine Vision technique had reached the Proficient-Level, five appraisals were already difficult for them. Thus, if he were to appraise any more treasures, it would attract the suspicion of others.
Furthermore, he depended on Lin Qi for a living. However, Lin Qi's identity and methods also made him fearful. Thus, he didn't want to cause any unnecessary trouble.
In the last three appraisals, he appraised two Low-Grade Mortal items and one Middle-Grade Mortal item.
The rewards were a Blood Qi Pill, a Psychic Pill, and knowledge of bare-handed rock climbing respectively.
There was no need to further elaborate on the Blood Qi Pill. As long as a martial artist was in the Body Refinement Realm, they would need the nourishing effects of this spirit pill.
"As for the Psychic Pill, this is what I call an 'Experience Pill.'"
"With the Psychic Pill, my Divine Vision technique will definitely reach the Lesser Mastery-Level."
"After waiting for a few days, I have finally received this reward."
Chen Shaojun was elated.
As an apprentice pawnbroker, he naturally hoped that the level of his Divine Vision technique would be as high as possible.
When one's Divine Vision technique reached the Lesser Mastery-Level, one could be promoted to an official pawnbroker. Meanwhile, when one's Divine Vision technique reached the Greater Mastery-Level, it was said that they would be able to break through actual ghosts with brute force.
What if one's Divine Vision technique reached the Perfection-Level?
That was another level. He had never heard of anyone who achieved it before.
"Lastly, the knowledge of bare-handed rock climbing… It's not very useful, but it's not completely useless. No matter what, it's still an ability…"
Chen Shaojun was now a martial arts practitioner. He could not leap 100 feet, but he could still jump 20 to 30 feet.
In the future, when he learned
Therefore, he didn't really care about this bare-handed rock-climbing ability.
However, no matter what, this was still an ability. As the saying went, the more skills one had, the less one would feel pressured.
Thus, he naturally wouldn't mind having this ability.
Then, Chen Shaojun took out the Blood Qi Pill and the Psychic Pill.
After some thought, he put away the Blood Qi Pill and decided to consume the Psychic Pill in his hand first.
He estimated that he would be able to raise his Divine Vision technique to the Lesser Mastery-Level after another period of treasure appraisal.
However, the Divine Vision technique wasn't inferior to anything else. After all, it was the most fundamental thing to appraise treasures.
Thus, the earlier he broke through to the Lesser Mastery-Level, the safer he would be.
If possible, he naturally hoped to break through as soon as possible.
Then, Chen Shaojun grabbed the Psychic Pill and swallowed it.
A cooling sensation instantly rose in his mind.
Buzz!
He felt that his thoughts and senses had been elevated to a very special state. His thoughts occurred very quickly. With a thought, he could process thousands of changes and movements. As soon as the question popped into his mind, he could instantly resolve it.
Then, he quickly focused his thoughts on the Divine Vision technique.
In an instant, all sorts of profound changes, questions, answers, guesses, directions, and other aspects related to the Divine Vision technique appeared. Then, he quickly understood everything.
It was as if he had practiced the Divine Vision technique countless times in this short period of time. His proficiency and understanding of this technique had reached an astonishing level.
After a while…
The refreshing feeling disappeared, and he returned to his senses from that special state.
"Even if it's not my first time using the Psychic Pill, this feeling is still too fascinating."
Chen Shaojun felt lost.
However, joy soon appeared on his face.
He had broken through.
The Divine Vision technique had reached the Lesser Mastery-Level.
He could clearly feel that his familiarity and understanding of the Divine Vision technique were no longer the same as before.
Most importantly…
Chen Shaojun controlled his mind and cast the Divine Vision technique.
He had initially needed at least two breaths to execute this technique, but now, he only needed one breath.
Moreover, when he gathered his spirit and charged forward, an obvious ripple of air appeared.
In the next instant, the ripple of air rushed out like a sharp sword and landed on a table three feet away.
On the table were the five treasures that he had appraised.
Thump!
The five treasures all moved despite the lack of wind and flipped over.
"My spirit has condensed and can interfere with reality now."
"I truly made a breakthrough."
"I have achieved the Lesser Mastery-Level in the Divine Vision technique."
Chen Shaojun's eyes lit up and he was pleasantly surprised.
He had long known that after achieving the Lesser Mastery-Level in the Divine Vision technique, the condensation of his spiritual power would become almost tangible and could interfere with reality.
In other words, he could move objects in the distance with just the power of his spirit and will.
The weight of the items that he could move was still relatively low. Furthermore, the range of his influence was limited. He could only move items that weighed within one kilogram and if they were within three feet of him.
However, he was already very satisfied.
He was in no hurry.
Even though the range of his spiritual influence was still very small, and the weight of the items he could move was limited, it wasn't like he couldn't improve it.
He believed that when his Divine Vision technique reached the Greater Mastery-Level, or even the Great Perfection Stage, his strength would continuously increase, his martial arts skills would advance, and his Dao techniques would become profound… Then, the influence of his spirit and will would definitely be even more terrifying.
In the future, once he learned the Sword Kinesis Flight technique, he could travel thousands of miles with a single thought. He could even take the heads of enemies from thousands of miles away… It was not impossible.
"I have attained the Lesser Mastery-Level in the Divine Vision technique. This means that my current treasure appraisal abilities are not that much different from that of official pawnbrokers."
"If I report this to the higher-ups, I will probably be taken seriously very quickly. My slave status will be removed and I will be assigned a special appraisal room. I will also be rewarded with money… From then on, my identity and status will be very different."
"However, I am in no hurry."
"Everything would have to wait until the Treasure Gathering begins."
"Thankfully, there isn't much time left until the Treasure Gathering."
Chen Shaojun pondered silently before standing up.
Next was his cultivation time.
Chen Shaojun took out a Blood Qi Pill and swallowed it. Then, he immediately stretched out his body and started practicing the Tiger Demon Body Tempering Fist.
Intense blood and qi soon spread throughout the room.
The room seemed to have become a fiery and intense furnace.
