The curling smoke from the incense burner surrounds the beautiful red gourd. The mouth of the gourd is tightened, exuding sharp energy.
"The Immortal-Slaying Flying Knife is a treasure unearthed from the ruins in Zhongzhou hundreds of years ago. Along with this object, there were also documents unearthed."
Jiang Shang looked at the red gourd, explained its origin, and said:
"According to legend, the immortal-killing flying knife once assisted King Wu in defeating Zhou. Even if the immortal was struck by this object, he would not be able to escape."
"The true shape of this object is unknown, but it is placed in a gourd. When an enemy is killed, a white light will fly out from the mouth of the gourd. With the help of a spell, the immortal-killing flying knife can fly automatically and take the person's head."
Jiang Shang held up his sleeves and said:
"Logically speaking, this object should have shone brightly in the process of defeating monsters, but no one has been able to get the recognition of the Immortal-Slaying Flying Knife in the past hundred years."
"Treasures have souls, especially magical weapons." Jiang Shang said: "Of course, if you are not interested in the immortal-killing flying knife, we can change it to another one."
Jiang Shang saw Lin Xiao's elegance in front of Hulao Pass, and thought that this person in the world's holy realm might be recognized by the Immortal-Slaying Flying Knife.
But after all, the Immortal-Slaying Flying Sword has not recognized its owner for thousands of years.
If Lin Xiao couldn't establish a connection with the Immortal Killing Flying Knife, there was no need to force it.
Lin Xiao naturally knew the prototype of the ‘Immortal-Slaying Flying Knife’.
The famous immortal-killing magic weapon in Fengshenyan can seal the magical power of immortals and monsters.
Every time he appeared, he beheaded a heavyweight. He made five appearances in total without missing a beat. His record was astonishing.
The exclusive formula for ‘Slaying Immortals with Flying Knife’ is even more impressive:
Please baby turn around.
This is a magic weapon with a temper. If you don't call it "treasure", people will ignore you at all.
Lin Xiao thought to herself, who is not a treasure?
According to legend, there is a winged human head stored in the Immortal Killing Flying Knife, which has extremely murderous intent. It is an unknown object like the "Seven Arrows Book of Nail Heads" and should not be used frequently.
However, Lin Xiao glanced at it using the card master's guide, and based on the description of the card, he could deduce that the body in the red gourd was a flying knife that could cut through anything.
It's just that the weapon spirit of this flying knife is a bit temperamental, and it must be used with the "Please baby turn around" command.
The ability of the Immortal-Decapitating Flying Knife is truly astonishing. Even an eighth-level being will be beheaded by it if seriously injured.
Lin Xiao's heart moved, and she knew that she just lacked a hidden weapon, so she said:
"This thing is destined for me!"
Jiang Shang saw Lin Xiao's move, nodded and said:
"The method to establish a connection with the Immortal-Destroying Flying Knife is very simple. Inject source power into the gourd and recite the spell silently in your heart. If there is a response, it means that it recognizes you."
Jiang Shang paused for a moment, his neck suddenly felt cold, and he quickly added:
“Remember, this is to be recited silently, never out loud!”
Lin Xiao made a 'no problem' gesture, stepped forward and stretched out his hand, placing the fire in his palm against the red gourd.
As he gradually approached, a sharp energy came from the red gourd, the air flow vibrated, and a blood mark opened on Lin Xiao's palm.
Jiang Shang's heart tightened and he said: "Your Excellency Lin Xiao."
"No problem."
Lin Xiao's eyes narrowed, dark flames surged in his palms, and he grasped the red gourd.
Inside the fire, the destructive aura of the Black Dragon Contract and the prehistoric aura of the Mountains and Rivers Society Map intertwined into a frightening momentum.
It seems that this card master is not only the messenger of the "Lord of Destruction and Reincarnation", but also is watched by the "Lord of Spirit and Matter".
To put it simply, there is someone above.
The air flow ruffled Lin Xiao's black hair, her face was slender and handsome, her eyebrows were sharp and her eyes were starry, and her palms injected power into the gourd.
Lin Xiao thought to herself: "Baby, please turn around."
Immortal-killing flying knife: "..."
The red gourd was broken into light particles and flew into Lin Xiao's fire under Jiang Shang's surprised gaze.
"Did it really succeed?" Jiang Shang was surprised.
The identification process takes less than a minute.
The immortal-killing flying knife that has been enshrined in Zhongzhou for hundreds of years recognized Lin Xiao so easily?
There is nothing on the flower basket style display cabinet.
Lin Xiao lowered his head and examined the fire, feeling the newly obtained "immortal-killing flying knife" in it, and felt satisfied.
The trump card of Immortal Killing Flying Knife is no less powerful than the finishing move.
It can defeat the enemy at the end and instantly kill the opponent at the beginning.
It's just not convenient to use in the World Series.
After all, when the Immortal Killing Flying Knife is released, someone's head will fall to the ground. It would be too cruel to use it in a competition.
"Successful." Lin Xiao nodded and suggested, "How about I show it to you."
Jiang Shang trembled all over, shook his head quickly, and was a little curious, muttering as if asking himself:
"How could it be so easy?"
He originally thought that even if Lin Xiao could establish a connection with the Immortal-Slaying Flying Knife, it would take him three to five days.
During this period, he could do Lin Xiao's psychological work and continue to invite him to serve as the "Martial Arts Star" in Zhongzhou.
But he didn't expect that the eccentric Heaven and Earth Treasure would appear... very docile in front of Lin Xiao.
After the Battle of Hulao Pass, Guanxi and Jiang Shang gradually became familiar with each other. Lin Xiao rubbed his chin and muttered:
"Maybe because... I'm handsome?"
It was obviously a joke, but Jiang Shang took a serious look at Lin Xiao and secretly guessed.
Being able to accept treasures and identify them as their owners, and being handsome are some of the reasons.
…
Putting away the immortal-killing flying knife, Lin Xiao left the Central Continent Association.
The battle against Qiongqi can be said to bring both fame and fortune.
Once he was invited to be the ‘Martial Arts Star’ of Central Continent.
Secondly, I got a new trump card, the ‘immortal-killing flying knife’ that is effective against eighth-level beings.
But there is also a hidden danger, that is, Lu Bu and Qiongqi escaped back to Chi You's hands.
Lin Xiao and Jiang Shang discussed using the 'Red Rabbit Horse' as a breakthrough to recruit Wen Hou.
At this time, the sky was dark, and Jiang Shang and Han Li, the Greedy Wolf Star, were chatting about their ideas in the Central Continent Association.
"You invited Lin Xiao to join the Central Continent Alliance, and you also plan to transfer your title of 'Martial Arts Star' to him?"
Han Li unconsciously raised his voice:
"This matter is not a child's play. Even if he has the spirit of a saint, he still needs to consider it in the long term."
Jiang Shang picked up a cup of tea and said with a smile: "So, didn't I come to discuss it with you?"
"You..." Han Li slumped, knowing that Jiang Shang had this kind of temper, so he slowed down and said, "Lin Xiao, did he agree?"
"He said it needs to be considered." Jiang Shang drank tea.
"Humph, outsiders know more about things than you do."
"He is not an outsider." Jiang Shang said, "An outsider would not do such a thing for Zhongzhou."
Han Li was silent.
He also knew that even if Lin Xiao was an eighth-level holy realm, it would still be risky to face Lu Bu in front of Hulao Pass.
Although the result was that Lin Xiao crushed Lu Fengxian, this was not the reason for Zhongzhou to despise Lin Xiao's efforts.
Lin Xiao's role as the 'Wu Quxing' is indeed in line with Wu Quxing's positioning, that is, "responsible for force."
"This matter is not something you and I can decide. It must be voted on by the Seven Stars." Han Li paused and said, "But, I agree."
Jiang Shang smiled and said, "If he takes over the position of Wu Quxing, my life will be much more leisurely."
Seeing Han Li's indifferent look, Jiang Shang said calmly:
"Of course I'm not taking time off to go fishing. I plan to take advantage of this period of time to leave the Imperial Capital and look for opportunities to break through to the Holy Land."
"Leave the Imperial Capital?" Han Li's tone changed slightly.
"Zhuangzi said that the saint has no name." Jiang Shang sighed: "For me, only by letting go of foreign things can I achieve true freedom."
"I don't understand your Taoist stuff, but..."
Han Li's eyes flickered, he nodded deeply, and said seriously: "I wish you immediate success."
"By the way, there's one more thing."
Jiang Shang briefly explained Lin Xiao's idea of "recruiting Lu Bu" to Han Li.
Han Li smiled and said:
"It's interesting to buy horse bones for thousands of dollars. I'll keep an eye on it."
"You can contact Lin Xiao directly." Jiang Shang looked relieved and said with a smile: "From now on, he will be your martial arts star."
Han Li twitched the corner of his mouth: "Are you just giving up your burden now?"
"It should be said that I can finally put down my burden." Jiang Shang corrected.
It is not easy to find a Zhongzhou card master who can take over the position of ‘Wu Quxing’.
Jiang Shang was originally a reclusive person, holding the two titles of "Unparalleled National Scholar" and "Martial Arts Star", but he was burdened by his reputation.
Now that Lin Xiao has come to Zhongzhou, and with his outstanding performance in front of Hulao Pass, Jiang Shang considers him to be the perfect candidate to succeed him.
Han Li shook his head helplessly, looked at the thin Taoist priest's hair tied with a wooden hairpin, and said:
"There are still three ferocious beasts that have not yet appeared, leaving you not much time to seek freedom!"
Jiang Shang said loudly:
"One day the roc rises with the wind and soars ninety thousand miles away!"
Han Li moved slightly, looking at Jiang Shang's leaving figure, and suddenly remembered what he had done, and his expression became strange.
【Today, fishing.
Today, fishing.
Jiang Shang, Jiang Shang, you are someone who seeks the Holy Land, how can you be so slack!
Today, fishing.]
Han Li murmured:
"I hope Mr. Lin Xiao's appointment as the 'Martial Arts Star' can really inspire Jiang Shang and Zhongzhou."
…
"Jiang, Jiang, Jiang Shang invites you to be the martial arts star of Zhongzhou??!"
In the office, Sigrid hugged the document board tightly, her red eyes widened, she stuttered, and looked shocked, as if she had seen a ghost.
"sit down."
Lin Xiao sat on the sofa, picked up the coffee on the coffee table, and said with a slightly helpless tone:
"I haven't agreed yet."
The little secretary repeated: "You haven't agreed yet?"
As the smoke filled the air, Chu Yun crushed out a cigarette. After thinking for a long time, he still couldn't figure it out. He lit another one and said in a low voice:
"You are... Well, we have only been in the Imperial Capital for one day. How did you do it?"
An outsider from the Central Continent Alliance was invited to become a member of the Seven Stars of Central Continent.
It's like a political rookie who suddenly wants to serve as a cabinet member.
The key is, only one day has passed!
Chu Yun was wondering in his heart...if he slept with the daughter of the chief minister of the cabinet, he would not be promoted at such a speed.
"I had a fight with Qiongqi, one of the four murderers of Central Continent, and Lu Bu in front of Hulao Pass."
Lin Xiao scratched his head and coughed dryly: "I just couldn't get rid of them."
The little secretary looked at Lin Xiao blankly.
After hearing your explanation, I feel even more suspicious.
Seeing Lin Xiao's calm look, the little secretary suddenly realized that he might not yet understand the value of 'Wu Qu Xing'.
"In the country of Zhongzhou, the status of Qixing is extremely high, and the title of Wuquxing is more powerful than the ancient emperor's Minister of War..."
Sigrid explained patiently and finally blinked: "So, are you sure you heard correctly?"
"I am from the Holy Land in this world." Lin Xiao said unhappily: "It is reasonable for people to invite me to be a senior executive."
"It's unreasonable." Chu Yun put out his cigarette and said, "But the last martial arts star in Zhongzhou was 'Jiang Shang', so it makes sense."
The little secretary was stunned for a moment, recalling the comments about Jiang Shang on the Internet, and felt a little surprised.
And this high probability means that Lin Xiao was invited to be a martial arts star. This is true!
The little secretary was a little dizzy.
From now on, I will be the secretary of Zhongzhou Wuquxing... no longer the secretary of the federal wanted criminal...
My parents will be very happy when they hear this news!
"Our goal is to collect immortal bones and fight against Chi You, the military leader of Central Continent, as much as possible."
Chu Yun analyzed: "It will be very convenient for you to serve as Wu Quxing."
Lin Xiao nodded: "That's exactly what I planned."
"I just checked, Wuquxing is the symbol of force in Central Continent, and it needs to go all over the country to destroy powerful monsters."
Sigrid closed the tablet and said seriously: "But this is what Lin Xiao has been doing. The business is very relevant!"
Lin Xiao nodded and gave the order:
"This time we don't need you two to investigate the Seven Deadly Sins Demon God. Just relax."
"Work with the Demon City Investigation Team to investigate the remaining four murderers: Taotie, Taotie and Chaos." Lin Xiao said.
Chu Yun, Sigrid: "..."
This isn't much easier, is it?
*
Imperial Capital, Pojunxing Mansion.
Lu Lingqiu was sitting on the rocking chair in the courtyard, reading history books, his eyes flashing slightly as he recalled the unprecedented battle in front of Hulao Pass.
I am indeed no match for my ancestors.
But Marquis Wen seemed to be merciful to me and kept giving me moves to hone my halberd skills.
Lu Lingqiu put down the history book and sighed softly.
A replica of a wooden ox and a flowing horse walked through the courtyard. Lu Lingqiu glanced at it, recognized the Mohist pattern on it, and said:
"Lord Mo Yao, what happened?"
"It's just the two of us, so there's no need to be so formal."
The sound-producing device of Muniu Liuma came out with the uninhibited voice of the imperial sister, Mo Yao said:
"Have you heard that Jiang Shang is about to leave the imperial capital and pass on the title of 'Wu Quxing' to Lin Xiao?"
Lu Lingqiu's eyes flashed with surprise, and she said: "I am recovering from my injuries at home, this..."
"Haha, I was as surprised as you at first, but when I think about Taoism's escapism, I can understand."
Mo Yao said: "Besides, Your Excellency Lin Xiao does have the ability to serve as a 'Martial Arts Star'."
Lu Lingqiu nodded slightly.
In the battle in front of Hulao Pass, the strength of Lin Xiao Sanctuary was impressive.
Not to mention, he also has a map of mountains and rivers, and carries the Western giant beast ‘Behemoth’.
"There is one more thing." Mo Yao's tone was slightly serious: "The Immortal Killing Flying Sword recognized Lin Xiao."
Lu Lingqiu was even more surprised.
She also tried to establish a connection with the Immortal-Destroying Flying Knife, but was cut by the sharp energy and needed to recover for several days.
Lu Lingqiu was really moved by the fact that such a treasure had a new owner in just a few days.
Mo Yao said deeply: "Lin Xiao's Holy Domain has a strong offensive spirit, just like Gongshu Ban who is good at attacking cities. The Mo family's concept of 'universal love, non-attack' is a bit weaker in front of him. But in my personal opinion
, he is a trustworthy person. Therefore, I support his appointment as the 'Wu Quxing'."
"I have no objection."
Lu Lingqiu nodded and said: "Martial Arts Star should be held by strong people."
"You mean, Jiang Shang is not strong?"
"I didn't mean that!"
"Haha, I'm just teasing you." Mo Yao was about to leave and asked casually: "What are you reading?"
Lu Lingqiu Liang published the book cover:
"Historical book of the Chu State in the Spring and Autumn Period, "梼杌"." (same pronunciation as: fleeing the fog)
Mo Yao paused slightly:
"梼杌...isn't he one of the four evils in the legend?"
"Yes."
Lu Lingqiu said: "梼杌 is a monster that looks like a tiger and is covered in dog hair. And because 梼杌 means 'tree stump', it is often used to refer to stubborn people."
""Mencius Li Lou Xia" also said that the Cheng of Jin, the Chu of Chu, and the Spring and Autumn Period of Lu. The history book of Chu State is called "梼杌"."
Mo Yao thoughtfully said: "You are worried..."
Lu Lingqiu sighed: "Since Qiongqi is in chaos, Marquis Wen appears."
"The remaining three ferocious beasts may also have the help of the God of War."
