Thinking about this possibility, I couldn't help but feel excited. However, after looking at it for a long time, I couldn't find any other valuable clues except for that word.
I looked at it for a while and was about to take the cauldron with me to study it later. But at this moment, I suddenly thought that since Zhang Bingcheng had carefully kept this cauldron, could it be a celestial tool?
Celestial tools were nurtured by the Dao Qi all year round, so they had a faint halo on their surface. Ordinary people couldn't see it, but cultivators could recognize it at a glance. However, this was only under normal circumstances. There were some special celestial tools that didn't have this halo because of the material and the spirit of the tool. For example, the Celestial Master's celestial tool that Han Wennan had used looked like an ordinary leaf. If he hadn't told me, I wouldn't have thought that it was a celestial tool.
This small cauldron didn't have a halo of Dao Qi, but it was easy to determine whether it was a celestial tool or not. I just needed to pour Dao Qi into it.
As long as it was a celestial tool, it would respond to Dao Qi.
With that in mind, I guided Dao Qi and poured it into the small cauldron.
At first, I just wanted to pour some Dao Qi into it to test the reaction. However, as soon as I poured my Dao Qi into it, a strong suction force came from the small cauldron and tore my Dao Qi. It was like the floodgates had been opened, and my Dao Qi poured into the cauldron.
I was startled and hurried to control my body, trying to retract my Dao Qi. However, the suction force of the small cauldron was terrifying. No matter how hard I tried, I couldn't do anything. I could only watch the Dao Qi in my body disappear crazily.
At first, I wasn't too worried. Since I had the True Dragon Vein, I could just use my Dragon Qi to replenish it. However, when I had lost more than half of my Dao Qi, the small cauldron's suction force didn't show any signs of stopping. I finally started to panic.
To a Feng Shui Master, Dao Qi was like an ordinary person's Qi. It was okay to use a little Qi, but if one was too tired, it would cause great harm to the body. Moreover, Dao Qi didn't have a fixed value. When one's body was extremely tired, one's Spiritual Force and lifespan would turn into Qi to continue.
In this way, one could even die of exhaustion.
Dao Qi is the same. If this small cauldron continues to absorb it, it might even suck me dry.
I was so shocked that I didn't have time to think. I quickly grabbed the jade bracelet and started to absorb the dragon energy from it. I quickly converted it into Dao energy to replenish my energy.
Just like that, I replenished my Dao energy while madly consuming it. After close to half an hour, the small cauldron's suction force finally calmed down. It wasn't as fierce as before. I finally seized the opportunity to cut off the connection of the Dao energy and hurriedly threw the small cauldron to the ground.
At that moment, my face was extremely pale. The Nine Apertures Dao Qi in my Heaven Meridian had been completely used up. I had a splitting headache and my body was extremely exhausted.
I didn't even have the ability to think. The only instinct I had left was to grab the jade bracelet and close my eyes to crazily absorb the Dao energy.
After an hour, the Taoist energy in my body was replenished. After it had circulated in my meridians for a full cycle, the discomfort in my body finally disappeared.
When I opened my eyes again, I looked at the small cauldron in front of me and couldn't help but feel terrified.
Based on the difference in power of a magic tool, the Dao energy required to use it would be different. Generally speaking, the more powerful the magic tool, the more Dao energy it would require. From the situation just now, this inconspicuous small cauldron could even be said to be a Celestial Master magic tool.
After all, the magic tool had to be used. Generally speaking, activating the magic tool wouldn't consume too much of the magic tool. It would only consume more Dao energy in the process of using it.
Just like Han Wennan back then, she was able to support the use of the leaf-shaped Celestial Master magic tool when she was only in the Dragon Seeking realm.
The current me had the cultivation of Blocked Acupoint Nine Apertures. Moreover, when I was in the Dragon Seeking realm, I had five light pillars of Dao Qi in my body. Even though I had reached the Blocked Acupoint Realm, I naturally had more Dao Qi than others. Even so, the amount of Dao Qi required by this small cauldron was still not enough!
This was simply unimaginable. Based on the amount of Dao Qi that I had consumed, a normal person in the One Star Glorious Knowledge realm wouldn't have that much Dao Qi in their body. They would need to be at least two or three stars in order to reach that level.
What was even more terrifying was that even though I had consumed so much Dao Qi, the small cauldron was still quietly lying on the ground in front of me without any reaction. It seemed that even after I had consumed so much Dao Qi, it was still not enough to activate it!
I sat there in a daze for a long time before I bent down to pick it up and put it on my body, preparing to study it in the future.
No matter what this small cauldron was or what kind of power it had, it wasn't something that I could control at the moment.
Speaking of which, it was strange. Zhang Bingcheng was only at the early stage of the One Meridian talent. How could he have such a terrifying thing in his hands? I couldn't understand it no matter how much I thought about it. In the end, I could only guess that this item had been passed down from Wen Shan's lineage. After all, Zhang Bingcheng was Daoist Xuemei's youngest son. After the change in Wen Shan's lineage, although old man Zhao had inherited the lineage, Daoist Xuemei might have secretly passed something to Zhang Bingcheng before she passed away.
After putting away the small cauldron, I immediately left the place. After returning to the hotel, I called Wang Kun and the rest, asking them to stop their search and return to the hotel to meet up with me.
For the next day, I stayed in the hotel to rest. On the second night, Zhang Kanwen finally appeared again. He looked even more exhausted than before, but he seemed to be in high spirits.
He didn't mention how to deal with Zhang Bingcheng, and I didn't ask. I just asked him if he had anything else to do. If he ignored me, he could come with me to Shenzhen.
In the past few days, I had made up my mind. After everything here was settled, I would go back to Shenzhen and open a shop that dealt with metaphysical items and geomancy. Of course, I would let Xie Chenghua and Liu Chuande take care of the shop. I wouldn't stay in the shop, and I wouldn't let Zhang Kanwen stay there either. I had already experienced the Lu family's ruthlessness. I wouldn't give them a chance to find me.
The reason why I had asked Zhang Kanwen to come with me was because I wanted him to leave Meizhou to relax. I didn't want him to be stuck in his hometown.
Zhang Kanwen shook his head and told me that he only had four torn pages of the 'Song of Righteousness'. Most of the remaining pages were in a secret place of inheritance in Wen Shan's lineage. He wanted to go there and take out the complete ancient copy of the 'Song of Righteousness'. This was what old man Zhao had told him when he had escaped from Zhang Bingcheng's ambush.
After taking the ancient copy of the 'Song of Righteousness', he would find a secret place to cultivate. He wouldn't come out for a short period of time.
Since he had said so, I didn't force him. I just told him to be careful and be careful of the Lu family's revenge. He shouldn't expose his whereabouts.
Although Zhang Kanwen looked rough and boorish, he was actually very meticulous. I didn't need to tell him about it as he understood it himself. However, he still nodded at me solemnly and gave me his phone number so that I could contact him. Then, he bid farewell and left.
It had been two days since Lu Chengping had escaped. I didn't dare to stay in Meizhou any longer. I immediately brought Wang Kun, Xie Chenghua, and the others to leave and return to Shenzhen.
When I arrived in Shenzhen, I went to meet Wang Yongjun and told him that I wanted to open a shop. Then, I asked him to help me find a shop in the antique market.
As soon as Wang Yongjun heard me, he waved his hand. "There's no need to look for them. I have several shops that are suitable for me." Then, he called his people and asked them to send me the information of several shops. After a while, I confirmed the location of the shops. It was in the Antique and Jade Market in Shenzhen. It was a quiet and secluded place. Moreover, it was spacious with two floors, around three hundred square meters.
In Shenzhen, where every inch of land was worth its weight in gold, a three-hundred-square-meter shop was a sky-high price. However, Wang Yongjun waved his hand and said, "This is a shop that I'm investing in. It's just idle in my hands. I can use it as I please."
I thought about it and didn't try to be polite with him. I agreed.
Then, I called Xie Chenghua and Liu Chuande to meet with him. I heard that these two were the presidents of the Metaphysics School Branches in Zhuhai and Foshan. Wang Yongjun was full of respect for them. He stood up and greeted them.
When he heard that I would arrange for these two to work in my shop and be his company's consultants, Wang Yongjun was flattered. He repeatedly said that he would give them a generous annual salary.
However, since I had taken the shop for free, I wouldn't ask him to pay the salary. I told him that Xie Chenghua and Liu Chuande would work in my shop, so I would pay for their salaries. Moreover, I would be leaving Shenzhen for a while. They would be his company's consultants, but they would temporarily share my duties. They didn't need a salary.
With Wang Yongjun's keen eyes, he could see that Xie Chenghua and Liu Chuande were obedient to me. Seeing my firm attitude, he didn't insist. He nodded and confirmed this matter.
In the next few days, Xie Chenghua, Liu Chuande, and even Wang Yongjun were busy preparing for the shop. On the contrary, I was quite free. I stayed in the hotel and made a few talismans. I saved them and sold them in the shop.
The reason why I wanted to open a shop wasn't just to make money. I wanted to settle Xie Chenghua and Liu Chuande. Moreover, to avoid the Lu family, I had to leave Shenzhen. I couldn't let Wang Yongjun pay me for nothing. After thinking about it for a while, I had this idea.
After the shop was finished, Wang Yongjun sent Wang Kun to take a few people with him. He told me that they would work here. Then, he asked me to give the shop a name. I remembered the name of the 'old shop' that I had found the magical compass. I decided to hang a horizontal board for my shop with the words' Fengshui Metaphysics' written on it.
Although the four words were vague, people who needed the shop would know what they needed when they saw the name of the shop.
After finishing this business, I didn't dare to stay in Shenzhen due to the threat of the Lu family. I hurried to leave.
However, when I returned to the hotel to pack my luggage, I saw that the door to my room was ajar. I could hear people talking inside.
I was startled. Before I could react, the door in front of me was pulled open from the inside. A chubby face peeked out from behind the door.
Seeing that face, my eyes widened.
