After more than ten seconds, the prayer beads let out an unbearable groan.

Pa!

The beads shattered from the inside.

It split into a few pieces and fell on the warm water surface of the Cloud Sky Pool. It flowed forward along the impact of the dragon saliva until it hit the end of the water flow.

He had failed.

He did not mind. He put the prayer beads aside, put his hands on the pillow, emptied his mind, and leaned back.

Every inch of his skin was washed by the warm water. The water contained precious spices that could calm one’s mind and recover one’s mental and physical strength as quickly as possible.

Xia Ji rested for the time it takes for an incense stick to burn before reaching out to take the leather contract. He pointed at the contract and a line of information was transmitted into it.

Come and see me. I’m in the Cloud Heaven Palace.

Hu Xian ‘er, who was accompanying the princess, received the message. At this moment, the enemy army had set up camp and there was no riot in the city. It was considered a calm between storms. Hu Xian’ er let the little fox, who had turned into a palace maid, continue to protect the princess while she entered the palace with the princess’s token.

Pushing open the door, he saw a man bathing in warm water in the misty mist. He could also hear the sound of the nine dragons spitting water.

Hu Xian ‘er’s eyes moved, and black smoke exploded. She instantly changed from winter clothes to summer clothes. Her red silk dress wrapped around her delicate body, and her short skirt was immeasurably short. Her lotus-like calves stepped on the jade floor of the Cloud Heaven Palace. With a reluctant expression, she teased pitifully, “Master, please…Please be gentle with Xian Er.” Xia Ji ignored her dirty words and said directly, “”Let’s talk about magic tools.”

“Master, I…” I want to talk about it in the pool.”

“Come down with your clothes on.”

“My clothes will get wet…’

“It’s all your skin and bones. Does it matter?”

“Oh .

Hu Xian ‘er stepped into the hot spring of the Cloud Heaven Palace and let out a sigh of comfort. This emperor of the mortal world really knew how to enjoy life. The calming spices in the water contained many precious herbs that could instantly soothe the tense skin and relax the tense mood.

Hu Xian Er followed the smell and saw that the leftmost dragon head of the nine dragons was slightly twisted. This calming spice came from it. She then swept her gaze over the other eight and asked curiously,”Master, are there eight kinds of spices? Each one has a different effect?”

She paddled away and rose into the air. She squatted on the nine dragons and tried to turn the other dragon heads.

“Don’t twist it.”

“Oh …” Hu Xian Er said, but her hand was not obedient. She was a fox, and foxes were famous for being eccentric. Not only did her feet slip, but her hands also slipped.

However, before she could twist it, a few water droplets shot up from the water and hit her palm heavily.

Hu Xian Er felt a pain on the back of her hand, as if she had been electrocuted. She couldn’t help but let out a cry of “Ouch!”. She knew that this was a warning, so she quickly retracted her hand, feeling a little wronged.

” The royal family is extravagant, ” Xia Ji said. ” The spices hidden in the other eight dragon heads aren’t anything good. ”

Hu Xian Er’s eyes lit up as she listened…

“Master, what is that bad thing?”

Seeing her like that, Xia Ji didn’t want to discuss further with a vixen. Instead, he said calmly, “”Let’s talk about magic tools.”

Only then did Hu Xian Er obediently sit in the pool and pour out all the information she knew. “Magical artifacts, the powerful ones mostly come from ancient ruins.

A magic tool contained mental power. Once this power was exhausted, the magic tool would become an ordinary item.

However, different mental powers required different carriers, such as prayer beads, bottles, bells, flags, and even flowers and feathers …

As for the use of magic tools, they could not be used continuously. After each use, they needed to quietly recuperate for a period of time before they could be used again.

Since the master was the creator of the prayer beads, the nurturing time would be faster.

And the better the material of the magic tool, the shorter the time needed to nurture it.

However, no matter how much it was nourished, the material would still be corroded.

For those who are not the creator of the magic tool, the efficiency of nurturing is very low. Moreover, it only delays the time of death of the magic tool.”

The old fox had lived for hundreds of years and was naturally knowledgeable. He knew these things.

Xia Ji thought about it and roughly understood that the Sense Beads had dimmed because he had used them continuously.

The reason why the prayer beads were broken was because of the agarwood’s material. It could not withstand such a violent second infusion.

He also knew that the Buddha Zen was suitable for prayer beads, the Dipamkara Zen was suitable for lamps, and the Maitreya Zen was suitable for kasaya.

Hu Xian Er understood the man’s thoughts very well. Just by seeing her master deep in thought, she understood what he was thinking, so she continued to speak.

” There’s no definite answer as to the best material to make the prayer beads, but it’s definitely not an ordinary item from the human world. All of this requires luck and coincidence. My fox clan has hidden a good piece of wood. It’s magma wood. Wood burns when it comes into contact with fire, but this wood has the five elements of fire affinity and can withstand high temperatures. It’s a very rare species. I’ll go and apply for it and ask the next batch of demons to bring it over to Your Highness. It’s just that…”

She bit her lip.

“What do you want?” Xia Ji asked.

“I want to try opening those eight dragon heads,” Hu Xian Er said.

Xia Ji was speechless.

Hu Xian Er giggled coquettishly. Her master was still a young man. Although he had the spirit of Buddha, he still had a youthful side.

“Oh right, Master. I found Queen Guifang the day before yesterday, but I accidentally found out about it. You …”

“I know..”
