Chapter 405: Pavilion Master requests your presence at 405!
"Cough, cough... My apologies, everyone, I made a mistake just now. In fact, this is a Multicolored Ink Stone!"
Yun Xiao had no time to argue with the Golden Snake Worm inside him. Seeing the expression on Gong Qizhen’s face, he knew that he had to think of a way to rectify the situation fast, or he might not be able to take the item away.
"Multicolored Ink Stone?"
Upon hearing an unfamiliar term once again, confusion arose on Gong Qizhen’s face. The onlookers, who clearly hadn’t heard of a Multicolored Ink Stone either, all turned their gazes towards Yun Xiao.
Yun Xiao, with an unblushing face and steady breath, promptly picked up the stone that was still emitting a multicolored glow from the table, and declared loudly: "The Multicolored Ink Stone is actually an advanced version of the Black Grinding Stone. Once crushed, not only can it be used as Black Ink Powder, the other four colors can also be used for painting—truly a rare and precious ink stone!"
"So it’s just an Ink Bar after all, and I thought it was some treasure!"
With Yun Xiao’s explanation, many lost interest. Although the stone emitted a multicolored light, if it was really just an Ink Bar, then it was of little use to these Cultivators.
Flourishing in calligraphy and painting was always the pursuit of scholars frail in strength, although not lacking among Cultivators who held such hobbies, they prioritized the cultivation of their Meridian Qi, which was the foundation of their standing on the Continent.
As Yun Xiao sensed the change in expressions and the murmurs of the crowd, he let out a sigh of relief. But just as he was about to store the stone in his Waist Storage, a hand suddenly reached out, attempting to snatch the multicolored stone away.
This scare was no small matter for Yun Xiao, but his reaction was extremely swift. He knew that inside the Treasure Hall, the only one who would dare to make a move must be the Pavilion Master of the Treasure Pavilion.
