Chapter 7: Relics

Recently, Zhongyuan gained a lot of good things, including several agate bracelets. So when he saw the bracelet on the desk, Zhongyuan didn't pay much attention to it. Now that he had nothing to do, Zhongyuan had time to take a good look at the things here. Walking into this bedroom, Zhongyuan turned his gaze to the bracelet. Part of the reason why he didn't pay attention to the bracelet was because of its style. Zhongyuan counted it carefully and added that the largest one hanging under the bracelet had a total of 19 beads. The former owner probably liked this bracelet, and more than 10 beads were touched until they were shiny. Of course, the most important thing is that there isn't much dust here, otherwise even if it's shiny, it wouldn't shine now. It's frustrating that none of the 19 beads in this bracelet are the same, regardless of color, size, or style. These beads should not have been processed.

After finishing reading this bracelet, Zhong Yuan gently reached out and wanted to pick up one to take a look. In his opinion, those clothes were easily torn by a light touch, and this bracelet was definitely not much better.

To Zhongyuan's surprise, the bracelet was picked up completely. Zhongyuan carefully held the bracelet with both hands and gently pulled it, but it didn't show its strength. Seeing that the bracelet was very strong, Zhongyuan pulled it hard again, but it didn't break. Zhongyuan knew it must be a good thing, and he was quite satisfied with his current strength. He didn't expect that even such a thin rope wouldn't break.

Just now, I didn't pay attention to the bracelet in my nervous hand. It wasn't until now that Zhong Yuan realized that after holding this bracelet, his psychic absorption speed had unconsciously increased several times. This discovery made Zhong Yuan very happy, and his whole heart was pounding uncontrollably. He was afraid it was his own illusion. Zhong Yuan carefully observed for a long time and confirmed that it wasn't after dreaming. Zhong Yuan felt happy in his heart. Even if he didn't want anything now, as long as he had this bracelet, it was enough. Of course, Quan Ti was the real purpose of this bracelet.

Nervously, Zhong Yuan wanted to confirm if it was really the purpose of this bracelet. He stretched out his psychic power to put the bracelet aside. As soon as the psychic power touched the bracelet, Zhong Yuan felt a suction force emanating from the largest bead on the bracelet. The psychic power wrapped around the bracelet was actually sucked in. Zhong Yuan was startled and quickly withdrew his psychic power, losing the support of his psychic power. The bracelet also fell to the ground, and the psychic power he had just absorbed several times hit back to its original shape. Zhong Yuan became nervous and confirmed that it was the bracelet that was increasing its psychic power absorption. Zhong Yuan didn't want to be broken by this sudden drop.

He quickly bent down and picked up the bracelet on the ground, flipping it over and over for a while to confirm that there was no damaged area. The absorption speed of his mental energy did indeed increase again, and Zhong Yuan finally breathed a sigh of relief, recalling the mental energy he had just absorbed.

After thinking for a moment, Zhong Yuan reduced his psychic power to a little and began to try on the beads of this bracelet. The result was that except for the largest one outside the bracelet that absorbed his psychic power, the other 18 beads not only did not absorb his psychic power, but Zhong Yuan could also feel a strange force entering his mind along with his psychic power. Zhong Yuan didn't know what it felt like to take drugs, but he felt that when this energy entered his mind, it was even more satisfying than taking drugs.

After confirming that these 18 beads had no immediate impact on himself, Zhong Yuan turned his attention back to the largest bead. Upon closer inspection, Zhong Yuan realized that this largest bead was probably not made of the same material as the 18 beads. At least Zhong Yuan could feel that this largest bead was actually the lightest among the more than 10 beads. I don't know if it was an illusion, but in Zhong Yuan's eyes, there were occasional flashes of light in this bead.

Shaking his head, he realized that this bead could absorb psychic power. Zhong Yuan released his psychic power and poured it into the bead. He wanted to see how much psychic power this small bead could absorb. Even when he rushed home from Daxing'anling a while ago, he didn't use up one-third of the psychic power he had in his mind.

Due to the deliberate input of Zhongyuan, the output speed of his psychic power is now several dozen times faster than usual. Even after half an hour has passed, Zhongyuan's psychic power has only been used up by half. However, the bead on the bracelet seems like a bottomless pit, absorbing as much as you release.

Zhong Yuan was very angry, and the consequences were serious. He didn't care about the pain coming from his brain after increasing his psychic power. He took a breath and doubled his psychic power. With a ding sound, Zhong Yuan only felt like he had accumulated half a day's strength and hit the empty space. He was so depressed that he wanted to vomit blood. At this moment, a bunch of images came to Zhong Yuan's mind, accompanied by a sharp pain. Zhong Yuan fainted brilliantly' nnd, You should have told me earlier if it was full This is the resentment that Zhong Yuan passed on to that bead before he fell unconscious.

Another morning has arrived, and Zhong Yuan, who was extremely sore all over, got up from the ground and slept on the cold and hard ground all night. Otherwise, it would be strange if he was sore all over. After moving his body, Zhong Yuan remembered what happened yesterday, as if he had been competing with that bead yesterday, and was finally knocked out by some images sent by the bead, right?

Thinking back to last night's dream, Zhong Yuan understood a bit. In the dream, Zhong Yuan saw the beads connected to his hand several times. Before they were made into a bracelet, they were either collected by some wealthy and noble people or placed in a solemn temple for worship. The appearance of each bead would cause a bloody storm, until one day 18 beads were collected together and made into a wandering bracelet. Along with the birth of the bracelet, there were countless struggles among the monks. The flying monks in his sleep and the magical light flashing between his hands made Zhong Yuan tremble with fear. Zhong Yuan remembered most in his dream that the monk who finally got this bracelet was a mountain peak in his hand. Unexpectedly, he stood up and pressed towards another monk. Although the mountain peak was eventually shattered by someone's joint efforts, the momentum left by the wave of his hand left a profound impression on Zhongyuan.

Although the monk finally obtained the bracelet, he did lose one arm. However, even this could not conceal the joy on the monk's face. After returning to the small mountain valley where he lived in seclusion, the monk did not pay attention to the injuries on his hands. Instead, he took off a string of Buddhist beads that he had worn around his neck, tore off the rope that was used to wear the beads, and waved his hand. The 108 beads on the beads flew in all directions. Then strange words came from the monk's mouth. As soon as the words fell, 108 silver lines flew up from all directions and connected to the monk's head. Then these lines slowly widened and covered the entire valley together, disappearing slowly. The monk finally relaxed his grip and used his one arm to wipe away the sweat from his head, beginning to heal his injuries. The bracelet that the monk had grabbed never left his hand again, After recovering from the injury, the monk began to practice in the valley. Every ten years, the monk would go out of the valley and bring back a few things more or less every time he came back. Zhongyuan felt that this monk had gone out of the valley more than ten times, which means it has been over 100 years? But the monk still looked like a hundred years ago. When the monk returned to the valley for the last time, he was obviously seriously injured. After returning to the thatched hut, the monk took out a bead from his pocket, and Zhongyuan could see clearly that the bead was the largest one on the bracelet in his hand.

After a series of dreams, Zhongyuan had already guessed the origin of those 18 beads. They were actually 18 relics of high monks. Zhongyuan's head was already dizzy with 18 of them. The surprise came too quickly, and he couldn't accept it.

Trying to calm down the excitement in his heart, Zhong Yuan continued to recall the scene in his dream.
