"Everyone, please remain calm."
Zhang DaoMing wore a broad smile, his handlebar mustache curled upward as his gaze swept across the crowd.
"Thank you all for coming. Since nearly everyone is here, this old man will now announce the new magical artifact forged by our River Pavilion."
As he spoke, he spread open his palm, revealing a dark blue pearl the size of a fingertip. It looked utterly ordinary.
Everyone stared intently at the pearl for a long while.
"Manager Zhang, did you take out the wrong item?"
They could not sense the slightest aura fluctuation from the pearl, nor could they see any Immortal Runes. It was like an ordinary metal bead.
"Could it be some kind of concealed weapon?" someone guessed.
Usually, only concealed weapons were difficult to detect through their fluctuations.
"It can be considered a type of concealed weapon. Its function is similar to a Burst Scroll's, but it is somewhat more powerful. It can absolutely tear apart a Human Immortal-level expert!"
Zhang DaoMing introduced it proudly.
"A Burst Scroll?"
Hearing that name, everyone froze.
It was not that they had never heard of Burst Scrolls. On the contrary, it was precisely because they knew of them that they were stunned.
The anticipation in everyone's eyes turned to disappointment.
"I thought it was something good. So it's just this kind of one-use consumable artifact."
"This is the new magical artifact your River Pavilion developed?"
"Your River Pavilion is truly declining. You're selling something like this as a treasure, and you even made such a huge fuss, gathering so many people at once."
River Pavilion had made such a huge commotion that they had thought it had forged some extraordinarily powerful magical artifact. Who would have thought it was merely this sort of artifact?
