Chapter 1394 - 1116: Millennium Clam Pearl!!

As everyone knows, pearls also have a lifespan. A pearl generally can only "live" for over a hundred years, with its youth at around fifty to sixty years.Over time, the drops of water contained in the pearl layer gradually escape, causing it to appear dull and dim, eventually aging and changing color, or even drying up and crumbling.

Therefore, ancient pearls generally cannot be passed down to today...

However, this particular pearl has not only survived to this day, but its existence has already reached nearly two thousand years... One can well imagine how precious it must be.

Of course, the more impossible it seems, the more doubts people have, but once Qin Fang's claim is proven true, the value of this Millennium Clam Pearl becomes immeasurable.

While it can't be said that there are no other Millennium Clam Pearls in existence, their numbers are certainly extremely rare, making one of them incredibly precious indeed.

What's more, Qin Fang placed its value above that of the top-quality Agarwood. Judging by Qin Fang's tone, it seems he has more to say, indicating that the uniqueness of this Millennium Clam Pearl is far from just its ancient existence...

"Everyone knows that pearls are exceedingly difficult to preserve, and even pearls over a hundred years old are rare, let alone pearls nearly two thousand years old."

"I won't delve into the history of this pearl because I, myself, don't really know... But when I found it, it had already been resting on the seabed for hundreds of years!"

"However, before it sank into the sea, it had already existed for a millennium, making it an exceedingly rare top-quality pearl... Pearls of this sort are called Millennium Clam Pearls, once-in-a-thousand-year top-quality pearls!"

"These Millennium Clam Pearls have a characteristic: if stored in water, they can remain unspoiled for a millennium..."

"Millennium Clam Pearls are the oddities among pearls. They continuously absorb the water essence, cleanse themselves while absorbing myriad water essences over thousands of years. One can only imagine how potent the essence they contain is..."

"Don't be fooled by its very small size; the reason is precisely because it contains too much water essence. If left in the ocean longer, it would become even smaller..."

"As everyone knows, pearls serve not only as decorations but are also valuable medicinal materials. Many ladies present have used pearl powder, either directly or within skincare products, which illustrates their usefulness..."

"Yet these Millennium Clam Pearls are incomparable to ordinary pearls... Their effects are far superior, almost entirely on a different level."

"Moreover, the method of use is different. Regular pearls are ground into powder, becoming pearl powder for use. But you cannot treat this Millennium Clam Pearl in such a manner. It's a rare treasure, breaking it would be a colossal waste..."

"You simply need to soak it in water for two hours; the substance it releases becomes a powerful medicinal elixir. Drinking the water soaked with Millennium Clam Pearls for over a month cures all accumulated ailments and has the effect of extending life..."

At this point, Qin Fang returned to the main topic, smiling at the old lady as he said.

"Grandmother, if you persist in drinking its soaked water for over three months, your chronic illnesses won't be a problem at all... If you can keep this up consistently, living to a hundred is not just a pipe dream!"

The old lady's longevity is limited; Qin Fang had previously mentioned this while extending her life. Even though his Nine Revival Needles claim the art of revival, he remains helpless before those with already depleted human potential.

But possessing this Millennium Clam Pearl makes Qin Fang feel like he's hit the jackpot.

This Millennium Clam Pearl is also something Qin Fang took from that sunken treasure ship, likely an offering to Great Ming by some country in Southeast Asia.

Unfortunately, the Millennium Clam Pearl never reached Great Ming and instead sank directly into the ocean, spending another few hundred years there.

The Millennium Clam Pearl cannot part from water and needs it, so long as water is present, it can remain the worldliest for a very long time... Especially in places like the ocean, where water is inexhaustible, the Millennium Clam Pearl releases strong spiritual essence while absorbing a lot of water essence, that natural, unspoiled essence from the sea, with exceptionally high quality.

Another few hundred years have passed, absorbing vast amounts of pure water essence, transforming it into something akin to a spiritual medicine.

Perhaps it may not surpass Qin Fang's Peerless Elixir Golden Dragon Saliva, but it's certainly a rare treasure...

Golden Dragon Saliva is a peerless spiritual medicine that can even revive corpses and mend dead bones, but it's not something ordinary people can endure. When Qin Fang, despite his strong abilities, nearly lost his life because of it.

If even he was like that, ordinary people wouldn't stand a chance, especially Old Madame Qu, whose health has long been fragile, progress could directly overwhelm her...

But the Millennium Clam Pearl is different. Comparatively, its medicinal properties are very gentle, needing just a bit of soaking in water for it to release a bit of essence, which suffices...

Persistence over the years brings a gentle nurturing effect, silently restoring health.

The water soaked with Millennium Clam Pearl possesses spiritual qualities; though not very strong, it's certainly better than none.

Year after year, those illnesses simply will not occur, haven't noticed those powerful martial artists seldom die of ailments unless from injuries.

Water essence is the most capable of replenishing life potential, and if daily replenishment is possible, the old lady's nearly exhausted life potential will gradually recover.

Thus, Qin Fang stated that as long as she persists, living to a hundred is not at all a problem...

"Hiss..."

Upon Qin Fang's explanation, everyone was astounded, unable to hold back their gasps.

Having reached their current level, true importance no longer lies in wealth, which is just a number for them. Check latest chapters at NoveI-Fire.ɴet

Health and longevity are what they truly care about. After all, they aren't young, and no one wishes to spend their remaining days confined to a sickbed.

Yet, none are guaranteed to live to a hundred, regardless of how much attention is paid to care and health preservation, there's little assurance.

Perhaps just days ago they were perfectly fine, but then suddenly a disease breaks out, dangerous acute conditions emerge, leading to fatality beyond prevention.

Before them is a piece of top-quality Agarwood, certainly remarkable, offering tremendous physical benefits, an elusive divine item, yet not quite miraculous.

But the Millennium Clam Pearl is different. If acquired, it would surpass any nutritional and tonic products.

Every day just a sip of its soaking water, with consistent persistence, life extension is achievable. Such fortune before anyone couldn't help but be tempted.

But due to its preciousness, many are drawn to it, almost ready to seize it, yet it's simply not theirs to take, left only with longing eyes.

They can only envy the Qu Family yet are completely helpless about it! (To be continued. If you enjoy this work, feel free to visit Qidian (qidian.com) to recommend, monthly votes. Your support is my biggest motivation.)
