Murim Recurve Chapter 221

Art of the Element; it was a scroll that was entirely created using the materials from a Beast King. Only they were suitable to house the properties of one. Numerous patterns, taking reference from the meridians in their bodies would be inscribed on the scroll.
In actuality, the scroll was the skin of the Beast King. And, the patterns were made using its meridians, the one it used to circulate the Elemental Qi in itself. And, these patterns were done to imitate a Pranic Art in effect.
Essentially, it was the same as unleashing a Pranic Art. But here, the circuit was created beforehand and was finalised into the scroll. And when activated, it only unleashed the effect of a single Pranic Art.
But, there was an ingenuity used in this, a reason an Art of the Element was tremendously valued. Harmonisers were only able to unleash their Elemental Qi in the form of Pranic Arts. As for the beasts, they were only able to unleash their Elemental Qi in the form of breath attacks.
An Art of the Element took the best of both worlds and combined them into one. The Art of the Element would condense a projection or effect of some sort like a Pranic Art. And, it could be unleashed forth like a breath attack.
Moreover, it could be controlled to a certain extent. The range and emission of a breath attack, and the control and creation of a Pranic Art, combined together resulted in an Art of the Element.
And, the circuit would be made in such a way an Elemental Qi Essence has to be placed in the place of its Pranic Heart. This Elemental Qi Essence would be what fuels the circuit into activating and unleashing the attack.
Moreover, the Harmoniser that actuates the Elemental Qi Essence—after mentally refining it through willpower and forming a connection with it—would be the one who would control the unleashed effect of the Art of the Element.

And, the greater the number of Elemental Qi Essences that could be imbued in the Art of the Element, the greater the resulting quality of the pronounced effect. Hence, its grade also varied accordingly.
An Art of the Element that can only use one Elemental Qi Essence was Grade 1. Similarly, a Grade 2 Art of the Element could house two Elemental Qi Essences. Its range and destructive power were higher.
Depending on the grade, the complexity of the circuit varies. So, it was progressively more expensive as the grade increased. At present, an Elemental Clan in their state at most possessed a couple of Grade 1 Art of the Elements.
Even the Art of the Elements she had stolen from the Burkurel Ju Clan's Western Settlement was only Grade 1. And now, the fact that the capital had sent a Grade 2 Art of the Element caused everyone to tremble with greed.
After all, an Art of the Element had strategic value. In wars, they were the most efficient in killing their foes. And, if they possessed a powerful Art of the Element, their Clan's prestige would skyrocket until it would stand at the peak of their state. After that, they might even obtain the chance to completely migrate into a Sect and establish themselves within it.
After all, the strongest Clans of every state were situated in their respective Sect.
And upon seeing the Grade 2 Art of the Element, even Re'Kha was unable to control herself. But she stopped herself timely, looking at the pace the price increased. 'No, I have four Art of the Elements with me. Even if they are Grade 1, they are beyond what a lone person like myself needs. Besides, in my current blinded state, I cannot even see anything on it. So, even if I get this, I cannot use it.'

As she thought about it, Re'Kha sighed in disappointment. Even though an Art of the Element was a complex circuit, it couldn't be completely sensed through the Wind Qi perception. After all, the Art of the Element contained a strong repulsive force that prevented any other Elemental Qi from approaching it.
Because of this, Re'Kha was unable to see what was on the scroll at all. It was something only determinable through sight. She had determined their identity in the Burkurel Ju Clan's Western Settlement because her Wind Qi perception was repelled from the scrolls.
And only an Art of the Element displayed this property. So, she immediately knew the hazy blank space she perceived was a scroll—Art of the Element.
Re'Kha just sat back and watched the auction proceed, inhaling a sharp breath in shock when it was sold for a grand price of 21,000 RuQi. 'Even if I bid for it, I couldn't have won it.'
Upon seeing how well it performed, the auctioneer lady was all smiles, shouting, "We'll look at another main attraction of today's auction now before proceeding to the final three items of this auction."
Saying so, she watched a young Harmoniser push forth a trolley with great care, as if he was afraid about it with his life. There was a cloth draped over an item. And, the ends of the cloth were tied to the trolley.
And, when the trolled was pushed, the cloth pulled at the item within, making it move accordingly. And, just seeing his actions, the crowd lost their cool. Some of them began to sweat in excitement while the rest had flushed faces.
The auctioneer lady didn't seem to care about this item as much when compared to the rest of the treasures. For, it was useless to her and anyone from the Royal Clan. But as for the rest, it was a life-changing treasure.
She smiled, slowly removing the cloth to reveal a tiny sphere, shaped like a seed, white in colour. It emitted a copper glow and hovered in the air. Even though its glow was gentle, most among the crowd were tranced by it.
Followed by a chuckle, the auctioneer lady spoke, "I don't even need to talk about this much. This is a Copper Pranic Essence. Starting price is 5500 RuQi."
