Chapter 516

Xu Mansion.

In the study, Xu Qi 'an sat by the desk. His fingers tapped on the surface of the table as he looked at the carving knife that was circling around the room.

"One premise, two conditions …"

He repeated this sentence and suddenly felt enlightened. A long time ago, Xu Qi 'an was confused. The loss of Daibun's national fortune led to the decline of the nation's power, which led to a series of disasters.

As a first-grade warlock, the Supervisor was the same age as the nation. He should have taken back the fortune and restored Daibun to a bright future, but he didn't do so.

Only now did he understand that the Supervisor's plan from the beginning was not just a dynasty.

What he wanted was a Martial God, and what he wanted to support was a Gatekeeper.

After knowing the answer, many of the Supervisor's incomprehensible plans in the past became reasonable and clear.

This game of chess really runs through the whole situation … Xu Qi 'an collected his scattered thoughts and focused his attention on the "one premise and two conditions".

"Senior, I have half of Daibun's national fortune, the fortune left by the predecessor of Buddha, and the fortune of Mahayana Buddhism. Do I already have these conditions?"

He humbly asked for advice.

"I'm just a carving knife!"

The ancient carving knife wrapped in Light said perfunctorily,

"That bastard Confucian Sages wouldn't tell me this."

You're obviously too lazy to care. Confucian Sages didn't say anything, but you're a carving knife that has lived for more than 1,200 years. You should have your own knowledge … Xu Qi 'an frowned.

He pondered for a moment and said,

"Senior, you followed Confucian Sages and wrote books. You must be very knowledgeable."

The carving knife immediately became interested and hovered in front of Xu Qi 'an.

"Of course, my knowledge isn't inferior to that of the Confucian Sage at all. Unfortunately, he changed. He became jealous of my talent and sealed me.

"Why do you ask this?"

Xu Qi 'an took the opportunity to say,

"To tell you the truth, I plan to write a biography after the Great Tribulation and write a collection of poems to be passed down.

"But writing books is a big deal, and I'm not talented …"

The ancient carving knife emitted a dazzling Light and said eagerly,

"I'll teach you! I'll teach you!"

He could clearly feel that the Artifact Spirit's emotions had become excited.

Xu Qi 'an quickly got up and bowed in surprise.

"Thank you, Senior.

"En, but now that the great calamity is upon us, this junior is not in the mood to write a book. I'll think about it after we deal with the great calamity, so senior, you must help me."

The carving knife hesitated for a moment. "Since you are so sensible and gave me a satisfactory reward, I will give you a few pointers."

Without waiting for Xu Qi 'an to thank him, it went straight to the point.

"The first is the premise of condensing destiny. The Confucian Sage once said that after the era of gods and demons and the chaotic war between humans and demons, the destiny of heaven and earth belonged to the human race, and the prosperity of the human race was the general trend.

"First of all, you have to gather providence. Confucian Sages once said that after the era of gods and demons and the chaotic war between humans and demons, the providence of Heaven and Earth belonged to humans. The prosperity of humans was the general trend. That's why the transcendent-grade ones want to devour the Central Plains and plunder its luck. "

"I know all of this. You don't need to tell me more …" Xu Qi 'an complained in his heart.

"Although you have the providence of a dynasty of the Central Plains, how does it compare to the Buddha and the God of Sorcerer?" asked the carving knife.

Xu Qi 'an thought seriously for a moment. "Compared to them, the providence I've accumulated should be insufficient."

The Buddha had gathered the providence of the entire Western Regions. The God of Sorcerer should be slightly weaker, but he should not be underestimated, because the providence of the Northern Region belonged to him.

In addition, providence was something that might be stored through special means.

It was hard to say that they did not have additional providence in their hands.

The carving knife asked again,

"Then how much providence do you think is needed to kill a supreme Martial God?"

Xu Qi 'an did not answer, but he made a judgment in his heart. The providence he had gathered might not be enough.

Light flickered steadily on the ancient carving knife as it conveyed its thoughts.

"I'm not sure how much providence is needed to become a Martial God. I can only make a rough estimate. You'd better continue to absorb providence from Daibun. More is better than less."

That's the logic, but the Supervisor is not here. How can I absorb Daibun's providence? By the way, Zhao Shou is already a Second Rank Warlock … Xu Qi 'an asked,

"Can the Confucian school help me obtain providence?"

Among the major systems, the Confucian school was one of the few systems that could control providence.

"Dream on! Don't even think about it!" The carving knife denied.

"The Confucian school needs to rely on providence to cultivate, but their core magic is to modify the rules, not to manipulate providence.

"Simple influence might be possible, but to obtain Daibun's providence and pour it into your body is something only a Second Rank Warlock can do."

If that's the case, I can only wait for Senior Brother Sun to advance to the Second Rank. But advancing from the Third Rank to the Second Rank is easier said than done. I can only sleep with Huaiqing for the sake of the world … Xu Qi 'an sighed "helplessly" as he said,

"Then what do you mean by obtaining the approval of the world?"

Light rippled on the carving knife as it conveyed its thoughts with a smile.

"You have already obtained the approval of the world.

"Ever since you became famous, the Supervisor has seen everything you have done. This is also the reason why he chose you instead of extracting providence to cultivate others."

Everyone knew of Xu Qi 'an's great achievements, and everyone knew that Xu Yinluo's promises were worth their weight in gold.

They knew that he fought for the people and dared to kill the king for the people.

Along the way, he had done all sorts of deeds, and unknowingly, he had already obtained one of the qualifications to become a Martial God.

Xu Qi 'an nodded unsurprised and asked the second question.

"Then how do I obtain the approval of the world?"

The carving knife was silent for a long time.

"I don't know. The description of obtaining the approval of the world is too vague. Perhaps even the Confucian Sages himself doesn't know.

"But I have a guess. The Transcendent-grade wishes to replace the Heavenly Axiom. Perhaps after you decide to become an enemy of the Transcendent-grade and fight them head-on, you will obtain the approval of the world."

Xu Qi 'an grunted in acknowledgment and immediately said,

"I also have an idea."

He told it about the Taiping Saber.

"The Supervisor said that it is the Gatekeeper's weapon, and it is my qualification to become a Gatekeeper."

The carving knife thought for a moment and replied,

"Then we can only wait for it to wake up."

After talking about business, the carving knife did not stay any longer and flew out of the open window.

Xu Qi 'an took out the Book of the Earth fragment and pondered for a moment before informing the members of the Heaven & Earth Society of the two conditions to become a Martial God.

But he hid 'one premise'.

[One: Obtain the approval of the world. Yes, the carving knife makes sense, and so does your guess. We will know when the Taiping Saber wakes up.]

[Four: It's easier than I thought. But it makes sense. The Gatekeeper is guarding the Heavenly Gate, so he must obtain the approval of the world first.]

[Seven: The carving knife is wrong. The Heavenly Axiom is heartless and will not approve of anyone. If being an enemy of the Transcendent-grade could obtain the approval of the Heavenly Axiom, Confucian Sages would have become a Gatekeeper long ago. I think the key is the Taiping Saber.]

The Saint spoke enthusiastically. He had enough authority in discussing the Heavenly Axiom.

[Nine: No matter what, we have finally solved the problem that has been bothering us. Next, we will face the great calamity. The God of Venomous Poison will probably break the seal earlier than the God of Sorcerer. Our focus should be on the Western Region and the Southern Border.]

Once the God of Venomous Poison went north and attacked the Central Plains, Buddha would definitely cooperate with him.

If they could divide the Central Plains before the God of Sorcerer broke the seal, Buddha would have the highest chance of winning among the Transcendent-grade.

[Three: I understand.]

After ending the group chat, Xu Qi 'an sent a private message to Huaiqing.

[Three: Your Majesty, in fact, there is a prerequisite to becoming an Martial God.]

[One: What is it?]

Huaiqing replied immediately.

[Three: Gather the luck!]

After this message was sent, the other side was completely silent.

Without Xu Qi 'an's detailed explanation, Huaiqing seemed to understand the meaning in a second.

…

"Eh, the breath of the God of Venomous Poison …"

When the carving knife swept across the courtyard, it suddenly stopped. It had sensed the breath of the God of Venomous Poison.

It immediately turned the head of the knife to the direction of the inner hall. "Swoosh!" It flew away.

It turned into a stream of light and came to the inner hall. It locked on to a girl who was squatting by the door and staring at a pot of orange tree.

She had a round face and a cute look. She didn't look very smart.

Xu Lingyin was immersed in her own world and didn't notice the sudden appearance of the carving knife. However, Aunt Mu Nanzi and the other women were startled by the "uninvited guest".

"This is the carving knife of Confucian Sages!"

Lina said.

She had seen this carving knife many times.

Hearing that it was the carving knife of Confucian Sages, Aunt was relieved and her beautiful eyes lit up.

"Why does she have the breath of the God of Venomous Poison?" The carving knife's thought came to everyone's ears.

"The God of Venomous Poison wanted to take her as his disciple, but Xu Ningning refused. The foundation of the Venomous Poison is in her body." Lina explained.

"This is a hidden danger. Once the God of Venomous Poison gets close to the Central Plains, she will inevitably turn into a venomous poison. No one can save her."

"Even the Poison God will use her body."

Hearing this, Aunt was shocked.

"Is there any way to solve it?"

"It's very difficult!" The carving knife shook its head, "But we have an Martial God at home, so we don't have to worry too much."

Aunt thought for a while and had a glimmer of hope,

"Are you the carving knife of Confucian Sages?"

Because of the saber, Aunt could not only accept the fact that the weapon could speak, but also communicate with it without any obstacles.

Although Auntie was an ordinary woman, the people she usually came into contact with were all high-level people.

Gradually, she had developed a vision.

"You don't need to add the name 'Confucian Sages'." The carving knife said discontentedly.

"Yes, yes!" His aunt readily accepted his advice. She raised her beautiful face and stared at the carving knife.

"Can you teach my daughter how to read?"

"What can I do?" The carving knife sent out a disdainful thought, thinking that Aunt's suggestion was a waste of talent. It was the carving knife of Confucian Sages, teaching a child how to read would be a waste of its reputation.

"I only need to touch her a little, and she will be enlightened."

As Aunt was thanking Xu Lingyin happily, the head of the carving knife touched the center of Xu Lingyin's eyebrows.

The little bean blinked his eyes innocently, not understanding what was going on.

After a few seconds, the carving knife left the center of her eyebrows and floated in the air without moving.

Aunt asked happily,

"My daughter is enlightened?"

The carving knife was silent for a while and said slowly,

"Let's talk about how to deal with the Venomous Poison."

Aunt: "???"

…

Southern Border!

In Extreme Abyss, the statue of Confucian Sages that was full of cracks made a slight cracking sound. The next moment, the statue collapsed.

The power of the Venomous Poison God turned into a thick fog that covered the sky, lingering in the plains, valleys, and rivers of Southern Border, bringing about terrifying changes.

Trees grew eyes, flowers grew fangs, animals turned into Venomous Beasts, fishes and shrimps in the river grew lungs and limbs, climbing onto the shore to fight with the creatures on land.

Different mutations would appear depending on the degree of contamination.

The same race, some turned into Dark Gu, some turned into Power Gu, but the similarity was that they all lacked rationality.

Different Gu liked to devour and kill each other.

Southern Border completely turned into a world of Gu.

At the border of Southern Border and Yuzhou, Longtu and the leaders were cleaning up the Gu beasts at the border.

Although Gu beasts had no rationality and would not attack cities, and liked to stay in places with strong power of the Venomous Poison God, there were always some Gu beasts that would wander aimlessly to the border.

To ordinary people, these Gu beasts were an extremely terrifying disaster.

Several small villages at the border of Yuzhou had been attacked by Gu beasts, so the leaders of the Gu clans would come to the border every few days to kill the Gu beasts.

Suddenly, Longtu and the others felt a shiver in their souls, and a huge fear exploded in their hearts.

They either turned their heads sideways or turned their heads to the south.

At this moment, all the Gu beasts in Southern Border were kneeling on the ground, trembling in fear.

Longtu's Adam's apple moved, and his lips trembled.

"The Venomous Poison God has appeared …"

Then his face changed.

"Quick, inform Xu Yinluo."
