Chapter 23 Lao Tzu Wants a Heart Stone【For further reading】
Morning, peaceful.
A figure suddenly swung a knife forward, and in an instant, the mountain and river split into two. The surrounding river boiled, and the rocks rolled down. It was extremely terrifying. His slightly rough fingers gently touched the sharp blade, and then he cut it in half.
The long knife was put back into the scabbard with fingers.
"Sir, your demon-slaying robe." A maid with a respectful look on the side held up the large robe.
The brocade satin has a deep texture and is roughly black overall. It is inlaid with several pieces of golden armor. There is a huge tiger head on the abdomen, which looks powerful. This is a tiger robe!
And look at the world.
Those who are qualified to wear this kind of tiger robe.
Only a fifth-grade tiger-robed captain!
People of this level are rare in the Southern Territory!
He opened his hands and put on the tiger robe. The sunlight was shining, with some refreshing refraction, and the golden light shone, making him look extremely noble.
His tiger eyes are sharp, and the aura on his body is extremely fierce and terrifying, especially the sword in his hand. The aura is astonishing, and there seems to be a vague ghost shadow hovering and trembling on it. In this era, there are so many monsters, and it seems that this kind of tiger robe is the only one.
Only then can we suppress those extremely evil monsters and give people a sense of security!
And at this moment.
A homing pigeon flew from a distance. He narrowed his eyes and reached out to catch it.
And when he finished reading the contents of the letter, his vision flashed by and he quickly walked outside.
"I'm going to Qinglong County."
…
But it's just for one morning.
Outside Long County in the Qing Dynasty, many uninvited guests came!
The head of the Demon Slaying Department in Long County of the Qing Dynasty was a sixth-grade red-clothed woman named Zhang Siyao. She was a middle-aged woman with a plain appearance. At this time, the usually strong and brave female head of the department was now unexpectedly...
Seeming a little restrained, she felt a little helpless and said with a headache: "Why are these people...all here..."
Jiang Wensheng, the sixth-grade red robe from Yuanqing County, Mu Shanhe, the sixth-grade red robe from Changhe County, and Shang Changli, the beautiful girl from Guangyuan County.
These are all beings on the same level as her. Even the stunningly beautiful girl Shang Changli, who is only twenty years old, is all dressed in red.
Shang Changli, the darling daughter of Guangyuan County, is only twenty years old but has already entered the four realms. She wears red clothes and is said to be full of achievements. She has single-handedly handled a mystery case involving hundreds of households, which shocked her for a moment!
Zhang Siyao also knew that they, the Sixth Grade Red Clothes, were extremely busy on weekdays and had no spare time, but at this moment they all gathered in Qinglong County, with the purpose of getting the heart stone that had just been sent to Qinglong County yesterday.
Originally, these people came here and put a lot of pressure on her.
Until a burly figure approached, giving Zhang Siyao an even greater headache, and he completely felt that today's matter might not end well.
That figure carries a long sword at his waist. This person is Lin Tianwu, the tiger-robed captain of Beidi County. His cultivation level has reached the level of Vajra of the Fifth Realm. This person is a heavyweight!
"Greetings to Mr. Lin." Including Zhang Siyao, four people in red clothes bowed to Lin Tianwu at the same time.
Lin Tianwu nodded slightly. He looked fierce and his voice was rough and shocking: "I remember I came here a few years ago, Qinglong County. The craftsmanship of Shenhuo Hall here is indeed ahead of other counties. My precious sword can now be
Broken Mountain, unfortunately, I am still a little unwilling in my heart. I didn’t get the rare treasure that I wanted the most..."
He was hesitant to speak, but there was also a hint of provocation.
"As long as that sword can kill more monsters in your hands, our efforts at the Shenhuo Hall in Qinglong County will be worthwhile."
At this time, Zhang Siyao could only pretend not to understand.
Seeing her like this, Lin Tianwu simply stopped covering up and said in a low voice: "Well, I heard that the keystone is in your Qinglong County?"
When it comes to the heart stone.
The big men in red behind me couldn't sit still either.
"I have heard for a long time that the core stone is the essence of the immortal turtle's body that was once naturally raised. After endless years of warming and polishing, it absorbed the essence of heaven and earth, and the breath of mountains and rivers. Now it contains the rich power of mountains and rivers."
"If you cultivate a heavy sword, this heart stone will be the best material for the demon-slaying sword."
"What a coincidence, I practice heavy swords." Shang Changli said loudly, fearing that Lin Tianwu wouldn't hear.
At this moment, Zhang Siyao's forehead was covered with cold sweat, could he still not escape it after all?
Their purpose is too clear.
"Well, isn't this a bit against the rules? After all, this is the treasure that Cui Ziyi got..."
"Well, it is true that this behavior is not very honorable. After all, I feel that my face is disgraceful when I rob something with a ninth-grade purple-clothed person." Lin Tianwu nodded, but soon, a faint look appeared in his tiger eyes.
Behind the light, Qingqi Bolan said: "However, using this heart stone to forge the demon-slaying sword of the ninth-grade Ziyi is a bit too wasteful. The strength of the ninth-grade Ziyi can only reach the second level. How much of the power of mountains and rivers can he mobilize?
"
"I can provide materials to forge him a high-grade spiritual level demon-slaying sword. As long as he is willing to give me that heart stone, then I promise to provide resources within three years to help him enter the third realm of Kaiyang, and at the same time, he will
These three things added together are indeed very rich for a ninth-grade Ziyi.
Shang Changli's beautiful eyes flickered for a while, and he felt contempt in his heart. These sounds good, but compared with the value of the heart stone, they are completely worthless. With the heart stone, the demon-slaying knife will have a rich mountain and river value.
The power of the heavy sword is doubled, let alone the high-grade spirit-level demon-slaying sword, even the peak spiritual-level demon-slaying sword is far from enough!
At this moment, several big men in red clothes also made their bids. Jiang Wensheng thought for a while and said: "If Cui Ziyi can give me this piece of confidence, I am willing to directly transfer him to the Demon Slaying Division where I am.
I can promote him, and he can take all my treasures at will... I think about it, well, I can forge him a demon-slaying sword at the peak of the spiritual level! Zhuxia hollow jade, Tianming Chiluo iron, one hundred pieces of purity
Seven’s blood crystal…”
Mushanhe also continued: "This heart stone is too precious. He, a ninth-grade purple-clothed man, cannot grasp it. Even if it is really made into a demon-slaying sword, the world is too chaotic now. If any news is leaked, I am afraid it will bring trouble to him."
You might as well leave the risk of death to me... I also like to collect some treasures on weekdays, so what if I give them all to him?"
"Captain Lin, you are a bit sincere." Shang Changli looked at Lin Tianwu with a hint of teasing. She was not afraid of Lin Tianwu, the tiger-robed captain. After all, they were fellow demon slayers. What could a first-rank official do?
Well, a genius like her with endless potential, how could she always be in red? Now she has a good reputation, even if she is wearing a shoestring, she will not be a fifth-grade tiger-robed captain.
Lin Tianwu simply spread his hands and said, "I don't care. I targeted this heart stone three years ago. It must be mine now."
"Good fellow, Lieutenant Lin just showed his cards right away, right? He's obviously going to rob me?"
Lin Tianwu felt helpless. He was not a member of the family, and he didn't have much background. The sword he forged had almost used up all his life savings. Now he really couldn't get anything out of it.
I thought that even if I could protect the ninth-grade purple clothes for the rest of my life, but no matter what, what kind of wealth do these red clothes in front of me have? Zhuxia hollow jade? Tianmingchiluotie?
He looked at Mushanhe again, who wanted to spend all his savings. Mushanhe, our children, have countless treasures. Even if I don't use this sword, even if I put all my savings together, I won't be able to defeat them!
