While in Jiuyun Mountain Dazhai.
Time was running out, Wu Yuan was busy cleaning the battlefield and rescuing people, and he didn't have time to look too much at the two treasures.
Now that I am calming down and in the extremely safe martial arts academy, I naturally have to think about it slowly.
The more he observed, the more Wu Yuan felt that this token was unusual.
"It's really strong!" Wu Yuan sat cross-legged on the ground, holding both hands on one side.
Try again and again.
At first, fearing to crush it, Wu Yuan only used hundreds of kilograms of force to pinch one side, and then gradually increased the strength to thousands of kilograms, and finally used both hands to break it off with all his strength!
None of them can leave a trace on the token.
"Is it possible that it is made of magic weapon material?" Wu Yuan frowned slightly.
It should be noted that even if it is a fourth-grade sharp weapon, it is difficult to damage it directly, but with the blessing of tens of thousands of kilograms of force, you can theoretically feel the changes in the power inside the weapon.
But this golden token, no matter how much I add it to it, is like a mud cow drowning in the sea, and it is difficult to sense the changes in its internal strength.
Obviously, the strength of tens of thousands of kilograms is far from its carrying limit.
Absolutely extraordinary.
The only thing Wu Yuan could think of was the magical weapons that could be seen in martial arts classics and many biographical novels.
It can be called a divine weapon, and its materials are extraordinary.
For example, fifth-grade sharp weapons, except for hidden weapons such as flying knives that use very few materials, the prices of common weapons such as knives, axes, guns, and swords range from hundreds to thousands of taels.
A fourth-grade weapon? For example, according to Wu Yuan's estimation, Yang Hu's machete was among the top sharp weapons, and its value should be ten thousand taels of silver.
And the magic weapon.
The material is special and indestructible, and it can easily withstand even a force of 100,000 kilograms.
The most common third-grade magic weapons, the throwing knives and daggers using the least materials are generally worth tens of thousands of taels of silver!
The price of a normal third-grade magic weapon is usually upwards of 100,000 taels of silver, and it is difficult to purchase.
As for the second-grade magic weapon? A first-grade divine weapon?
In the world of Middle-earth, this weapon is already considered a legendary weapon, and its value cannot be measured by gold or silver.
Every second-grade divine weapon and first-grade divine weapon has an extraordinary origin.
"If it is really made of magic weapon material, the thirty thousand taels of silver notes I got may not be as valuable as the material of this token." Wu Yuan shook his head slightly.
The magic weapon is a treasure with an astonishing value.
"The most important thing is, what does this token represent? Is it some kind of certificate from the Chujiang Empire in the past? Or is it a token of the Chujiang family?" Wu Yuan put down the token and continued to read the books in front of him.
Want to find some clues from it.
These books were all about the Chujiang Empire that he collected from the Martial Academy's library.
Such as "Six Hundred Years of the Chujiang River", "The Customs of the Six Hundred Counties of the Chujiang River", "Chronicles of the Chujiang Empire", "The Empire Emerging from Chuzhou", "The Secret History of the Chujiang Royal Family"...
More than ten books.
Thanks to the fused memories of his predecessor, Wu Yuan had long known some of the deeds of the Chujiang Empire.
But after reading these books in depth today, I have a deep understanding of this great empire that perished decades ago.
The Chujiang Empire was established in "Chuzhou" more than 600 years ago. Hundreds of years after its establishment, strong men emerged in large numbers and expanded and rose. It reached its peak two hundred years ago and became a territory spanning Chu and Jiangzhou. A huge empire spanning more than 20,000 miles across, with 29 prefectures and more than 600 counties under its jurisdiction, and a population of over 500 million!
It was once the top empire in Middle-earth.
For example, the Hengyun Sect was once a major martial arts sect under the Chujiang Empire. Although it maintained a high degree of independence, it was under the control of the imperial royal family and had to fight with the empire at critical moments.
Until two hundred years ago!
"The emergence of the 'Jin Emperor', a master of the Heavenly Ranking, rose from the border of 'Xizhou', and for twenty years, he finally swept through the nine sects of the Three Kingdoms in Zhongzhou, established the 'Great Jin Empire', and changed Zhongzhou into the 'Holy State'." Wu Yuan looked at the description in the book.
Zhongzhou, now the Holy State, is the undisputed first among the thirteen states in the world in terms of territory, resources, population, history and culture. One state can equal several states.
Emperor Jin, once a master on the Heavenly Ranking, was also the most powerful person in the world at that time!
Sixty years ago, the third generation of Emperor Jin who succeeded to the throne, after completely pacifying the internal affairs, launched a war against the "Chujiang Empire".
One is in full bloom, the other is in decay.
The two empires fought for more than thirty years and experienced six decisive battles, which finally ended with the Jin Empire marching straight into the capital of the Chujiang Empire and the elites of the Chujiang royal family being wiped out.
Most of Chuzhou and Yuanzhou were occupied by the Jin Empire.
Even Jiangzhou had three prefectures occupied by it, which truly established the power of the Jin Dynasty as the largest country in the world.
The imperial family of the Jin Dynasty has also become recognized as the largest power.
Since the fall of the Chujiang Empire, none of the hundreds of sects in the Middle Kingdom dared to compete with the Jin Empire.
then.
The core of the royal family of the Chujiang Empire suffered all casualties, and chaos broke out in various territories. In the end, the Hengyun Sect and the Baijiang King, a distant branch of the Chujiang Empire, each occupied the four palaces, and stood out as the most powerful.
"The country was founded with more than 200 territories and a radius of tens of thousands of miles, but the expansion of the Jin Empire is not over yet." Wu Yuan sighed inwardly and put down the book.
The Jin Empire's martial arts far surpassed those of previous generations!
The enterprising spirit of all the Jin emperors in the past dynasties was astonishing, and their ambition to unify China could be seen in hundreds of sects of various countries.
The Battle of Hengshan eight years ago.
It was the first battle between the fourth generation Jin Emperor of the Jin Empire and the Hengyun Sect.
The Hengyun Sect won first and then lost, and finally lost the sect's ancestral home "Hengshan Prefecture", and the area under its jurisdiction changed from the land of four prefectures to the land of three prefectures.
The Battle of Hengshan is also regarded as the continuation of the "Battle of Chujiang in the Great Jin Dynasty".
"The Jin Dynasty is ambitious and has the potential to unify the Central Plains. The major forces in Yanzhou, Wuzhou, Dongzhou and other places will not sit idly by." Wu Yuan said secretly: "Secretly, I am afraid they all support the Hengyun Sect."
After the demise of the Chujiang Empire, the Hengyun Sect became the first barrier blocking the eastward advance of the Jin Empire.
otherwise.
The Jin Dynasty occupies an area of more than 60 prefectures, has a population of more than 100 million, and millions of soldiers. Regardless of the cost, it is fully possible to destroy the Hengyun Sect in one battle!
"Father, he died in the Battle of Hengshan." Wu Yuan lowered his eyes.
In his memory, there is the figure of his father, who has inherited the memory of his predecessor, and naturally also inherited some of his emotions.
Deep down, Wu Yuan didn't like the Jin Empire very much.
"Eight years have passed since the Battle of Hengshan. It seems that everything has calmed down, but there is no telling when the Jin Empire will raise troops to invade the country again." Wu Yuan thought about it, with a sense of urgency in his heart.
My own strength is far from enough!
Even top-notch masters cannot be killed.
Once a national war breaks out between the two major forces, what can I do in the face of the Jin Dynasty, which has thousands of masters and millions of soldiers?
You can’t even protect your family and clan!
"This token may be a big secret." Wu Yuan stared at the token: "The Chujiang Empire was destroyed, but how profound is the foundation of a six-hundred-year-old empire? The restoration movement has never stopped."
Among other things, many distant branches of the Chujiang royal family fled.
Like the 'King of Baijiang' who occupies the four prefectures, one of the important reasons for the rapid rise of a grassroots man is that he is a distant branch of the royal family of the Chujiang Empire.
"The first-class master I met hates me to the core. He is so powerful that even the Hengyun Sect may not be able to match it." Wu Yuan said secretly: "Before I have enough strength, I will wipe out the Liehu Gang. Not to be exposed.”
"Once it is leaked, it is likely to cause catastrophe!"
What about staying in the county?
Second-rate masters did not dare to act recklessly in the county. If they were first-rate masters, they would dare to directly assassinate the county guard as long as they did not encounter the Nanmeng Army in the plains.
Of course, you have to be careful.
After experiencing the battle at Jiuyun Mountain, Wu Yuan's understanding of the Middle-earth world became clearer, where force was respected and human life was as humble as grass!
"As for this jade bottle?" Wu Yuan carefully put away the golden token and picked up the cyan jade bottle.
After opening the cork, bursts of fragrance came out, making Wu Yuan feel extremely comfortable.
"Judging from this book, "General Knowledge of Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures." Wu Yuan capped the bottle again: "What is contained in this jade bottle is probably 'food and medicine'."
"General Knowledge of Heaven, Materials, and Earth Treasures" is very vague, but some basic knowledge is also explained clearly.
The treasures of nature, materials and earth are divided into three categories: 'food and medicine', 'minerals' and 'special'.
Each major category is divided into many subcategories.
Most of the natural treasures that ordinary people often talk about are food and medicine, which can directly enhance the strength of warriors and improve their physique.
As for the raw materials for making magic weapons, they are essentially mineral-based natural and earthly treasures.
"However, this is only my preliminary judgment and cannot be confirmed." Wu Yuan shook his head slightly.
Take it directly? No matter how confident Wu Yuan was, and no matter how much control he had over his body, he would never be so bold.
Not all natural resources and treasures are beneficial, they can also be harmful!
Powerful warriors are usually not afraid of poison, but it is said that even the masters will be infected by the 'poison' made from some heavenly materials and earthly treasures.
"If you want to correctly confirm what is in the jade bottle, the best way is to go directly to Qunxing Tower." Wu Yuan thought.
"Secondly, we need to find the alchemist from Licheng."
The Star Tower includes all phenomena and gathers all things in the world, so there must be a way to identify them.
Alchemists can be said to be the type of people who have the most dealings with 'Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures', and the probability of identifying this treasure is very high.
But Wu Yuan was not willing.
This increases the risk of exposing yourself.
"Licheng is too small. The Liehu Gang has just been destroyed. I'm afraid there is a lot of noise now. As soon as this treasure is released, it is likely to be targeted." Wu Yuan shook his head slightly: "Try some stupid methods first."
First of all, we must determine whether the contents of the jade bottle are beneficial or harmful!
