“It’s a Low-Grade Mortal item.”
Chen Shaojun was not surprised.
The quantity of baleful aura didn’t represent the value of the treasure, but to a large extent, it was related to the grade shown on the Psychic Treasure Mirror.
The stronger the baleful aura was, the higher its grade would be on the Psychic Treasure Mirror.
At least, according to his current findings, that was the case.
At the same time, his reward for appraising the treasure had fallen into his hands.
It was a grayish-white spirit pill.
It was a Psychic Pill.
It was slightly smaller than the Essence Augmenting Pill, but it was rounder. Its effect was also different from the Essence Augmenting Pill.
It was a spirit pill that could allow one to obtain information quickly and gain enlightenment for a short period of time.
“Obtain information quickly?”
“Achieve enlightenment?”
“What exactly do these words mean?”
Chen Shaojun was somewhat puzzled.
Even though the Spirit Pills had already transmitted the effects of this spirit pill into his mind, it was still very difficult for him to understand the exact effects of the pill just from the texts.
“Why am I thinking so much about it? I’ll probably know what it means after taking the pill.”
After pondering for a moment, Chen Shaojun quickly realized what he had to do.
At the very least, he knew that this spirit pill did not have any requirements for the user. Even mortals could use it.
He grabbed the Psychic Pill and swallowed it.
The pill melted as soon as it entered his mouth. Before it entered his throat, a cooling sensation rose and took effect on his mind.
Buzz!
In an instant.
He felt that his thoughts and senses had been elevated to a very special state. His thoughts occurred very quickly. With a thought, he could process thousands of changes and movements. As soon as the question popped into his mind, he could instantly resolve it.
“This state…”
Chen Shaojun’s heart was overwhelmed with shock. He truly felt the wonders of this spirit pill.
Then, as if his heart had been blessed with good fortune, he turned his thoughts to the Divine Eye technique.
In an instant, all sorts of profound changes, questions, and guesses related to the Divine Vision technique appeared. Then, they were quickly answered.
It was as if he had gone through countless hardships in this short period of time. As a result, his understanding and cultivation of the Divine Vision technique had reached a shocking level.
This kind of memory and control did not appear out of nowhere.
In fact, he already knew all the details and complex processes involved in the Divine Vision technique.
It was just that he had relied on the power of the Psychic Pill to accelerate his understanding of it. Thus, increasing his cultivation speed as a result.
The Psychic Pill saved him a lot of time.
After a while…
The refreshing feeling disappeared, and he came back to his senses.
Then…
There was a sense of loss.
The pill gave him an excellent feeling of euphoria. It was as if it was the definition of pleasure itself.
He also finally understood what exactly ‘enlightenment’ meant.
“This is basically a kind of Experience Pill.”
“It can directly raise the level of my Divine Vision technique.”
Chen Shaojun was amazed.
If his previous mastery of the Divine Vision technique was only at the Beginner-Level, he had at least improved it to the Proficient-Level.
In this world, martial arts and Dharma spells were divided into five levels: Beginner, Proficient, Lesser Mastery, Greater Mastery, and Perfection.
The threshold for the Proficient-Level was not low.
It meant that one was able to unleash the full effect of a certain technique.
The direct manifestation of this was that the speed at which the technique was executed was faster. Furthermore, the spiritual power condensed would be stronger.
For example, Chen Shaojun needed at least five breaths to prepare the Divine Vision technique. The amount of spiritual strength he could display was also not strong enough.
But now that he had reached Proficient-Level, not only had the casting time been shortened to three breaths, even the spiritual strength unleashed was also more than twice as strong as before.
“If my mastery of the Divine Vision technique had reached the Proficient-Level before I appraised the Scholarly Fan, perhaps it wouldn’t have been so difficult.”
Chen Shaojun silently compared his past experiences to his current situation and couldn’t help but sigh.
“Let’s continue.”
“I still have two items to appraise.”
“If I appraise these two treasures and still receive the Psychic Pill as a reward, perhaps my Divine Vision technique will reach the Lesser Mastery-Level.”
Chen Shaojun’s eyes lit up. He was hyped up.
Achieving the Lesser Mastery-Level in the Divine Vision technique was enough for one to apply to become an official pawnbroker in the Lin Pawnshop.
From then on, his status would change drastically.
However, after careful consideration, he decided not to expose this too early.
After all, one should not forget that there were treasures in the pawnshop that required appraisal by the pawnbrokers almost every day. Furthermore, every single treasure contained some amount of malevolent ghost aura.
Some of the baleful auras were extremely strong. The impact of these auras could instantly take a person’s life.
Meanwhile, the Divine Vision technique was the only way for the apprentice pawnbrokers to protect themselves.
Naturally, the higher one’s level of cultivation was, the stronger their life-preservation abilities would be.
Soon, the second ‘raw material’ fell into his hands.
Without any hesitation, he successfully cast the Divine Vision technique.
Three breaths later…
The appraisal was completed.
The Psychic Treasure Mirror appeared. It tracked the source of the treasure and determined its grade.
Then, it was time to appraise the third item.
After going through the same process, two more rewards appeared in Chen Shaojun’s hands.
These two rewards were also spirit pills.
The first pill was the Psychic Pill, which he coined as the Experience Pill.
The other pill was a Blood Qi Pill.
The Blood Qi Pill could increase one’s blood and qi, as well as strengthen one’s physique.
Although it was not as good as the Essence Augmenting Pill that could cleanse the marrow, it was still a rare and good thing for Chen Shaojun.
After all, the physique was the foundation of everything.
If he wanted to learn martial arts, with a strong physique, he would definitely have an advantage over those who were extremely thin and weak, as well as those whose blood and qi were weak.
Chen Shaojun did not intend to keep these two spirit pills.
After all, there weren’t many places in the pawnshop for him to hide these spirit pills.
The large shared room that he lived in was even more crowded.
Furthermore, he was currently in a weakened state. Thus, he had to convert all the resources he had into his own capital.
Therefore, he took out the Psychic Pill first.
He swallowed it in one gulp.
Then, information regarding the Divine Vision technique flowed rapidly in his mind. Within a short period of time, his understanding of the technique had improved tremendously.
After a while, he came back to his senses with a disappointed expression.
A look of regret appeared on his face.
This time, the Experience Pill did not improve the Divine Vision technique to the level of Lesser Mastery.
He reckoned that he would need at least two more Psychic Pills before he could cultivate the Divine Vision technique to the level of Lesser Mastery.
“But it’s enough.”
“I should be the only one among all the apprentice pawnbrokers in the pawnshop whose mastery of the Divine Vision technique has reached the Proficient-Level, right?”
Chen Shaojun could not be sure. After all, he did not deliberately ask about this in the past.
However, he had vaguely heard that Zhang Wang, who had previously been infused with the baneful aura, had already cultivated the Divine Vision technique to the Proficient-Level.
However, wasn’t Zhang Wang already injured and carried away?

Thus, he was the only one who had reached the Proficient-Level. Chen Shaojun felt good about himself.
After digesting the Psychic Pill, Chen Shaojun’s gaze quickly fell on the Blood Qi Pill.
The Blood Qi Pill was also oval in shape, but there was a layer of blood vessels on its surface.
It was said to be refined from the blood essence of a strange beast mixed with some special materials.
Chen Shaojun sized it up curiously. He tried to guess what kind of mutated beast provided the blood essence that was used to refine the pill. But after a few moments of contemplation without results, he quickly threw the pill into his mouth..
