Jiang Ping An's body swayed and he came under the ancient tree that Ding Han was leaning on.

"Are you sure you will sell me that animal skin for only five hundred Spirit King Pill?" He confirmed again.

"Yes... sure."

Ding Han Gritting his teeth, enduring the reluctance and regret in his heart, he took out a dark ancient animal skin from his arms and handed it over.

If he hadn't been in a desperate situation and urgently needed resources to save his life, he would have been reluctant to let go of this animal skin no matter what.

Jiang Ping An's eyes fell on this seemingly ordinary animal skin, and he secretly activated World Eye, trying to observe the Rules and information contained inside it.

However, something happened that shocked him.

A strange Rules power surrounded the animal skin like mist, completely blocking his exploration!

His World Eye can see through many high-level Ruless, and he rarely encounters situations where he cannot see through them.

The level of power emitted by this animal skin is obviously extremely high, and it can block his prying eyes!

"What is recorded in this animal skin?"

Jiang Ping An suppressed the surprise in his heart and asked calmly on the surface.

Usually such ancient animal skins will record some information such as skills, secret techniques or maps.

Ding Han clutched his violently heaving chest with one hand and responded breathlessly:

"I... I don't know. I've had it for many years, and I've tried all kinds of methods, but no words or patterns have ever appeared on it."

After he got the animal skin, he tried various methods such as blood dripping, water immersion, fire roasting, spiritual penetration, etc., but all of them were useless and there was no response.

It looked like an ordinary piece of old leather.

However, its toughness is extremely astonishing, and even with all his God King Realm strength, he cannot leave the slightest trace on it.

Perhaps it contains some kind of lost and powerful Divine Art, or a mysterious map that points to a shocking treasure.

But years of research yielded nothing, and he even briefly entertained the idea of selling it.

But, he didn't dare.

Once such a high-level divine object appears, it can easily lead to death.

Taking it to an auction house is like a three-year-old child holding a gold brick and swaggering through the market, with disastrous consequences.

Jiang Ping An did not doubt the authenticity of the animal skin. After all, this was a divine object that even World Eye could not see through.

He took out a Storage Ring and threw it to the opponent. At the same time, he shot it with his palm, and the animal skin in the opponent's hand flew into his palm.

He quickly unfolded the hide and glanced over it.

There are only some naturally formed mottled marks on the leather surface, and indeed no artificial words or patterns can be seen.

Even if I press World Eye again to take a closer look, I still can't feel any Rules fluctuations on it, as if there is really nothing hidden.

Jiang Ping An will never think that this animal skin is simple because of this.

This power that can isolate him from World Eye's exploration itself shows that it is extraordinary.

He quickly put away the animal skin, without saying a word, and left the place in a flash, galloping towards the imperial city.

After returning home, we will slowly study the mystery of this animal skin.

If you really can't find anything through research, go find Young Master Ning Yun Ya of Hua Miao Lou and sell it.

Ning Yun Ya comes from a rich family and is a wealthy owner.

If the asking price is too high, the other party will inevitably be dissatisfied, but if you only increase the price ten times and sell it for five thousand Spirit King Pill, for that Young Master, it is just a small amount that can be thrown away casually.

After Jiang Ping An left, Ding Han immediately took out the Spirit King Pill from Storage Ring and stuffed it into his mouth one by one, like chewing beans, frantically absorbing the pure Divine Power in order to recover as soon as possible.

About a stick of incense later, the space in front of Ding Han was suddenly torn open, and a man with long blue hair stepped out with a gloomy face.

If Jiang Ping An is still here, he will definitely recognize that this person is Lan Jie who explored Zhum Civilization Ruins with them back then.

Seeing Lan Jie appear, Ding Han's face instantly turned pale and he hurriedly shouted:

"Don't do it! I've already sold that animal skin to someone else! It's the Long Ping who explored the ruins with us before!"

He pointed in the direction of the imperial city and spoke very quickly, "He just left in that direction!"

Hearing this, Lan Jie's eyes became even colder. He said nothing, but raised the Divine Weapon with the cold light in his hand and launched an attack on it.

Ding Han's heart tightened, and he immediately escaped into the void and disappeared.

Lan Jie snorted coldly, his figure blurred, and he chased after him.

Jiang Ping An returned to the imperial city smoothly and was not in a hurry to study the animal skin immediately.

He first met Lan Shi'er and Tuanzi by chance on the street as agreed, and then went to Hua Miao Lou together and rented a secluded elegant room for dinner.

Although they ate this meal intermittently for several days, the two of them did not actually focus on eating most of the time.

After handing Bai Dianyuan's wind inheritance to Tuanzi, Jiang Ping An and Lan Shi'er entered the room alone and had an in-depth exchange of fighting skills.

During this period, Jiang Ping An selectively informed Lan Shi'er of some of the main things that happened in Bai Family Ancestral Land, omitting the too sinister parts.

Lan Shi'er also gave a general account of the big and small things that have happened in the outside world in the past twenty years. Two

Everyone agreed tacitly not to report good news but not bad news, and did not mention any dangers or unpleasant experiences that might worry the other person.

"Uncle, it's too dangerous for you to be running around outside like this all the time, and you have to work so hard to earn your own cultivation resources."

Lan Shi'er nestled in Jiang Ping An's arms, supported his cheeks with his arms, and said softly:

"I specifically inquired about it. Imperial Clan Refining Room is in urgent need of highly skilled Refining Master."

"As long as you regularly turn in a certain amount and quality of Divine Weapon, you can get contributions. Not only can you exchange for resources, but you can also use some high-quality Cultivation Grounds within the royal family."

She had been thinking about giving Jiang Ping An a more stable cultivation environment, so she paid special attention to this information.

Nowadays, the war on the frontline is not over, and there is a great demand for all kinds of Divine Weapons. Refining Masters that can create excellent Divine Weapons often receive special treatment.

"I'll go back and find out the situation."

Jiang Ping An did not directly agree, "I still have some cultivation resources on hand that can support me for a period of time. Moreover, if I go to the royal Core Region domain to practice, I will come into contact with too many people and my identity will be exposed easily."

Jiang Ping An currently has sufficient resources, enough to cope with a period of practice.

If it is not necessary, or he is not particularly in urgent need of a certain resource, he tries not to get too involved with the royal family.

There are many masters there, and he has too many secrets.

Whether it's Crystal Ball, Haotian Purple Flame Dragon Origin Divine Spark, Half-Step Sovereign Skeleton, or "Heaven Mending Art"...

Any leakage would be enough to attract the covetous attention of the Lan Clan Royal Family strong men.

Living with these top experts day and night made him extremely insecure.

When Lan Shi'er heard this, he curled his lips and muttered in a low voice, "You are too cautious, you are more timid than Tuanzi."

In the next few days, Jiang Ping An accompanied Tuanzi, Little Lion and Lan Shi'er to have a good time in the bustling imperial city, which made up for the time spent apart.

After enjoying the rare warm reunion, the two parties reluctantly parted again.

Jiang Ping An returned to Hua Miao Lou and rented a high-end Cultivation Room at a high price.

The one he rented before had already expired and the contract was automatically terminated because more than 20 years had passed.

The main reason why I chose the expensive Hua Miao Lou this time was because of the animal skin I just got.

Ding Han had no choice but to sell the hide at a low price in order to survive and recover.

There is no guarantee that he will not regret it after he recovers, and may even try to take it back, or leak the news.

For the sake of safety, staying directly in a high-end place like Hua Miao Lou with a strong background and tight security is undoubtedly the safest choice.

Seeing that Spirit King Pill was missing from Storage Ring, Jiang Ping An felt like his heart was bleeding.

In the Imperial City, everything costs money. Generally speaking, God King without a strong background may find it difficult to survive here.

Fortunately, he had won tens of thousands Spirit King Pill in the casino before, so he had enough resources to support his current consumption.

Entering Cultivation Room, he immediately turned on all protection Barrier.

Then, he opened the entrance to Devouring Space and submerged himself inside, preparing to meditate on the animal skin with peace of mind.

The reason why he chose to enter Devouring Space instead of Small World in his own body was because there was an extremely special existence in Small World inside his body.

The one from the Fifth God Kingdom Legacy Ground is Crystal Ball.

Crystal Ball has really helped him a lot over the years.

But Jiang Ping An is cautious and vigilant by nature, and does not want anyone or anything to know all his details too deeply.

The entrance to Devouring Space is closed.

Jiang Ping An sat down cross-legged in the dark void of Kong Ji, and slowly unfolded the animal skin paper again.

The animal hide was still the same as before, nothing on it had changed.

Jiang Ping An took a deep breath and pushed World Eye with all his strength. There seemed to be a chaotic vortex in his eyes, staring at the animal skin, trying to forcibly break through the layer of Rules fog that shrouded it.

His Soul Power began to be consumed at an unprecedented speed.

Not long after, fine beads of sweat began to appear on his forehead.

But the Rules fog on the animal skin showed no sign of dispersing.

With his current soul strength and Mental Power capacity, it seems that it is simply not enough to support him in spying on the true content contained on it.

In less than a cup of tea, a strong feeling of weakness and dizziness hit him, and his Soul Power was exhausted.

Jiang Ping An immediately took several precious pills specially designed to supplement Mental Power.

After he regained his energy, he turned his attention to the animal skin again and continued to devote all his energy to studying it.

He just wanted to see what kind of secrets this animal skin from Lord Zhum Civilization hidden.
