"It turned out to be ......"

Zhang Fan jumped up directly from the ground, and unconsciously held the ball in his hand with both hands, as if he was afraid of accidentally falling to the ground and bumping into a bad one.

Over the years, he has cultivated to a high level, and the more things he has experienced, the more the city government has become deeper, and he will make such a gesture, so you can see how shocked he was when he saw this thing.

This bronze ball, if you just look at the appearance, there is really nothing surprising about it.

Suddenly rusty color, the center of the sphere, there is also a fist of red copper ring, without the slightest aura fluctuation, if it is placed in the eyes of a layman, I am afraid that I don't even bother to look at it.

Originally, Zhang Fan didn't care too much, and when he took it out, he felt a little strange when he first saw it, as if it was incomplete, as if it was just a part of something, this was not any clue to find, it was just his intuition as a refining master.

But once you get it, it's very different.

The extremely obscure breath, the faint sense of mystery, and the invisible antiquity spread, no matter how you look at it, you feel an inexplicable sense of familiarity.

This feeling is so familiar, more than ten years ago, he had spent countless days and nights with him, how could he forget?

- Bronze Ding!

Yes, it was like the bronze tripod in his house.

This feeling, strictly speaking, is only vaguely as if it is not exactly the same, as if we look at two paintings of the same family, obviously the content is completely different, and the things expressed are also very different, but we know that they are from the same person's handwriting.

Holding this bronze ball at this time, Zhang Fan's feeling is the same.

Over the years, if it is said that the one who has had the greatest influence and helped him the most is nothing else, it is the "Great Five Elements Forbidden Breaking Technique" obtained from the bronze tripod.

After many years, seeing another thing with a similar aura made him not ecstatic.

After calming down for a long time, Zhang Fan suppressed the anxiety in his heart and slowly probed his divine sense into the copper ball in his hand.

"Huh?"

As soon as the consciousness touched the orb, it was ejected instantly, as if it were surrounded by a layer of incomparably tough diaphragm, rejecting all contact.

Zhang Fan's expression moved, but he was not surprised, such a strange treasure naturally has no reason to take it lightly, not to mention that he still has a killer weapon that he has not used, but there is no need to worry.

After a deep sigh, he didn't immediately use the "Great Five Elements Forbidden Breaking Technique" to start cracking it, but instead pinched the ball in his hand, and at the same time, with a move with his other hand, he took the jade slip that he had put aside and didn't pay attention to.

This thing appears with this jade slip, and if you know about its existence, then the ten **, it should have something to do with the dream heart.

Breaking through the protective prohibition above, he probed his divine sense into the jade slip, and in an instant, a large section of text emerged.

It's a dream trick!

However, this time Zhang Fan no longer looked careless, but concentrated on interpreting it, trying to find a little clue.

"Sure enough......"

After reading it word by word, Zhang Fan raised his head, his face was full of complicated expressions, in this jade slip, in addition to the detailed recipe of the dream heart formula, there are also some accounts of the founder of this recipe, Daqian Dao people, explaining in detail the origin of this recipe and the bronze ball.

The bronze ball, known as the "centering ball" in the jade slips, was accidentally obtained by the Daqian Dao people when they were young and explored the ruins with others, and it was not complete, and the other part was taken by another person who went with him.

It was based on this thing that the Great Thousand Dao people later created the strange magic power of the Dream Trick based on this thing and some words obtained in the ruins.

Zhang Fan didn't care about these, but what really shocked him was a mural that Daqian Dao people casually described and saw in the ruins.

The patterns on the mural have long been mottled, and many parts are not clearly visible, but in the center of it, one or two can still be distinguished.

It was a bald man, sitting cross-legged on the ground, wearing a strange-shaped shirt, loose and round, with no signs of tailoring, except for a large hole in the neck that allowed his bare head to be exposed.

On top of his hands, he held two things. One of them was a bamboo-like cane, about eight cubits long, which looked very rudimentary, and would look inferior to the crutches used by ordinary poor peasants if it were not for the strange round shape at one end.

In the other hand was a bowl-shaped container, which was placed at the mouth, and it was unknown whether it was to drink or eat.

The frescoes were mostly dilapidated, except for the bald man, who was still intact, and only a few figures resembling horse-caravan vendors could be seen resting not far in front of him.

This mural made the people of Daqiandao confused, that is, it was just recorded as a strange anecdote, but now in Zhang Fan's eyes, he saw a different meaning.

The bamboo-shaped thing with a round end was secretly in line with a tool seen in a previous life.

"Bamboo reeds for it, wrap one end with things. Order the seat cushion to walk, sit in meditation and fall asleep, and point it with a soft head. ”

It's clearly this thing - a Zen staff!

Coupled with that dervish's actions and bare head, this person is obviously a monk!

It is the strange-shaped clothes worn by this person, which also secretly coincides with the identity of the monk. The name of such clothing is "a bell", but it is just a rag obtained from fate, and it can be worn with a cut.

For more than ten years, Zhang Fan has never seen such a sect as Buddhism, whether from what he has seen and heard today or above the classical books, and this world is dominated by Taoism.

In this case, the origin of this monk is very suspicious, if it has nothing to do with the bronze tripod that Zhang Fan cares about, then it is called a ghost!

It's a pity that this Daqiandao man didn't know what scruples he had, and he didn't write in the jade slip where the ruins of such a treasure were located, and the identity of the person who walked with him and shared the other part of the treasure was not mentioned, which made Zhang Fan sigh.

These aspects are not mentioned, but the use of this treasure is explained.

According to the jade slip, this "centering ball" is the treasure of the inheritance of the Illusory Dream lineage, and if there is no such thing, it is impossible to cultivate the Illusory Dream Secret Technique.

When cultivating, it is necessary to hold the "centering ball" in your hand, and drive the treasures according to the imperial envoy method that the Great Thousand Dao people have comprehended from the fragments of the compilation, so as to be able to calm your mind and mind, so as not to get lost in the dreams of others, and you cannot extricate yourself.

That is to say, with this treasure, there is a dream trick, without him, it is to get this trick, and practice step by step, before the spell is practiced, the soul is no longer known to the point that it is lost in that dream.

It is precisely because of this effect that it was named "Centering Ball".

Zhang Fan scoffed at this name, by this time, he had already somewhat understood what the fragments of the Great Thousand Daoists had gotten back then, if it was expected, it should be an earth-shattering magic technique in the legend, and it was by no means an unpopular technique like the Dream Trick.

After understanding the cause and effect, this jade slip was of no great use, Zhang Fan casually stuffed it into the Qiankun bag and stopped caring about it.

This technique was still a novelty, and it was somewhat related to the earth-shattering supernatural power he had in mind, and if it weren't for that, he wouldn't even bother to collect it.

Different from his attitude towards Jade Jian, Zhang Fan held the bronze ball in his hands almost with a pious attitude.

Although the Great Thousand Daoist mentioned the imperial envoy's method in the jade slip, he only glanced at it slightly and put it aside, without the slightest intention of doing so.

That's just the result of the pondering and comprehension of the Great Thousand Daoists, not the original imperial method of this thing, if it weren't for that, it wouldn't just exert the magic power of centering.

Speaking of the supernatural power of centering, it can not only play a role when cultivating the dream heart technique, but also reduce the danger of losing the mind when cultivating, and in some special environments, it can also produce the effect of fixing the world.

But this is just a broken mantra barely driven, and it will never be able to play its real role.

In fact, this is commonplace in the world of cultivating immortals, after the destruction of the ancients, there are many spiritual treasures circulating, but these spiritual treasures are not the same as today's magic weapons, and they cannot be used through ordinary sacrifices, and they all need a complete mantra to drive.

This is also an important feature that distinguishes Lingbao from magic weapons.

The spiritual treasures that can be used today, except for a few that have been inherited at the time of discovery, are mostly the formulas that have been restored by later generations of immortal cultivators for many years, so that the magic power of the spiritual treasure itself can often not be brought into play.

This is a problem that has plagued countless amazing and brilliant people for tens of thousands of years, but for Zhang Fan, it is just a trivial matter.

After learning the Great Five Elements Forbidden Breaking Technique, he cherished it and did not dare to show it in front of others, and it was for this reason that this technique was the best way to solve this problem.

Holding the right hand of the "Centering Ball", suddenly the five-colored brilliance flowed, Zhang Fan's whole body spiritual power poured into it, and in the blink of an eye, the bronze ball broke free from the shackles of his palm like a life, and slowly floated up under the five-color spiritual light.

In mid-air, as if the patina fell, the copper ball suddenly shone with golden light, exuding a dazzling light, pure gold, with a nine-colored luster, just like a dream-like beauty.

After a while, as the five-color brilliance of Zhang Fan's palm converged, the bronze ball also fell as if it had lost its support, and still fell into his hands, and the brilliance around his body was gone, and it regained its obscure and dull appearance.

At the same time, a mouthful of bathroom tricks flowed through Zhang Fan's mind like a clear spring and was deeply engraved.

With a key, it is almost impossible to restore the complete structure of the lock, on the contrary, with the lock in hand, it is just a simple matter to match the key.

The "Great Five Elements Forbidden Breaking Technique", just like the world's top locksmith, obtained the real key to unlock the mystery of this treasure in an instant.

Zhang Fan took a deep breath, slightly relieved the feeling of lack in his lower body, and then moved lightly in his mouth, and the mantra of Duan Xuanao was quickly recited, and at the same time, the spiritual power in his hand was running, and it was poured into the ball in his palm with a special technique.

Suddenly, the brilliance was magnificent, gorgeous and misty, as if the dreams of countless people in the world had appeared, and they surrounded him quickly, Zhang Fan was in a trance for a while, only feeling that his body was light, and he almost couldn't notice his own existence.

"Click, click!"

The sound sounded like the cracking of an eggshell, and after countless years, this treasure finally revealed its true face.
