In the Wuxia world, there was no need to mention the consequences of castrating oneself to practice martial arts. For more details, please refer to Elder Jin's masterpiece, The Smiling, Proud Wanderer.
Not to mention a Jade Forging Formula, Bai Xiaowen would not even be willing to trade his lower body's sexual happiness for a direct evolver's, let alone a Jade Forging Formula.
As Kitts said, "If you don't have balls, there's no fun in being strong."
Bai Xiaowen put away the Jade Forging Technique manual and checked the team's merit points. They had more than 12,000 merit points in total.
Now that they had the merit points, they had to exchange for some. However, when Bai Xiaowen and the other three left the inner palace, Ji Mingjue stayed behind to accompany Gu Yulian, so he didn't have a chance to exchange for merit points.
Bai Xiaowen wasn't in a hurry. The four of them had a small meeting outside the inner palace. They would talk about the treasure chests first.
There were a total of seven elite-level silver treasure chests. As an appetizer, each team member had a chance to draw a prize. In the end, three of the seven treasure chests were empty, while the other four dropped seven superior-level spirit energy crystals and two blue-level items.
Among the two blue-level items, one was a jade pendant, which was a rare accessory. It passively increased the user's HP by 40 points, and it could remove a status control effect that was lower than Priority Level 2 (the wearer's base Priority Level). It was quite good.
Han Xu's two accessory slots were empty, so this jade pendant was given to him.
Then came the highlight: a total of five superior-level leader treasure chests! Among them, the treasure chests of Li Yinhua, the First Disciple of the Jiuhua Sect Master, and Elder Gu Zhen of the Infinite Sword Sect were C-level. The other three superior-level leaders who died without a name were killed by Bai Xiaowen and Qiao Rui together (the targets were affected by the Soul Rhythm). The rules of the Spiritual Realm gave them a B-level rating.
The four of them happily opened the treasure chests. The three superior-level leaders with no names dropped the following items:
Nine Special Spirit Crystals, one [Copper Man's Acupoint Striking Hand] Skill Book, one [Grand Stele Hand] Skill Book, one Gold Weapon: Golden Ring Machete. Lastly, he had also drawn a five-star Equipment Enhancement Card.
Bai Xiaowen looked at the two skill books. They were quite unique to the skills of the Sword Song Dimension. They both had the passive effect of increasing the level of the fighting skill. In addition, [Copper Men's Acupoint Striking] would also increase the user's vital attack rate. However, the prerequisite was that the user had to use a one-handed heavy weapon (including but not limited to mace, battle axe, warhammer, etc.). [Grand Stele Hand]'s full-strength attack would cause additional physical damage that ignored armor.
As for the Golden Ring Machete, it was actually a machete that required two hands to equip. Its attack power was ridiculously high, and it also had a sharp bleeding effect. Unfortunately, no one was suitable for it, so it could only be shelved.
There was no need to talk about the five-star Enhancement Card. Together with the special Psionic Crystal, it would definitely guarantee the enhancement of Dark Gold equipment to + 7 or even higher LV.
As for the other two C-rated treasure chests, Li Yinhua's treasure chest only dropped a blue swordsman's robe. It could be said that it was very weak. However, this swordsman's robe was, after all, a product of the Sword Song Dimension. The quality itself was still very good. In addition to the 3 points of Agility, it also had an additional practical active blocking skill that could block a single physical attack.
Finally, it was the treasure chest of Old Man Gu. Bai Xiaowen did not have much hope at first, but when he casually pulled it out, the old man's "Red Cloud Sword" actually dropped out!
[Red Cloud Sword (Bound after pickup)]
[Quality: Hero (Gold)]
[Equipment Requirements: Basic Strength 30, Basic Agility 30]
[Equipment Position: One-handed]
[Attribute: Additional Attack Power 12-25]
[Additional Skill 1: Edge Breaker: Passive. When you use Red Cloud Sword to parry/block, it will cause a damage effect to the target's weapon/shield, causing its durability to decrease by (5-30)%. The reduction ratio depends on the difference between the strength of both sides. This effect can be triggered repeatedly.]
[Additional Skill 2: Unbreakable: Passive. When you use Red Cloud Sword to attack the same part of the target a second time (or more times), the target's additional armor will be ignored.]
[Durability Description: One of the twelve famous swords carefully crafted by the current master of the Sword-Crafting Villa.]
This Red Cloud Sword was completely red, and there were faint waves of light flowing around it. On the edge of the sword, there were two small words "Red Cloud" and the surname "Xu" of the Sword-Crafting Villa.
"There are actually two skills? And the initial attack power is so high! "Li Shuyi exclaimed.
Bai Xiaowen glanced at it and said, "These two passive skills … Hmm, the requirements for the user are higher, especially the second suffix, 'Unbreakable.' It's basically a bonus. The main special effect should be in the first suffix. "
First, the second skill, "Unbreakable," required more than two attacks from Red Cloud Sword, hitting the same part of the target. This required a considerable amount of Agility and swordsmanship skills. Even if it was triggered, it would only ignore the target's "additional armor." In other words, the natural armor brought about by the enemy's constitution could not be ignored.
The first skill, "Edge Breaker," was more interesting. Literally speaking, no matter if the attack was parried/blocked by the opponent, or if the opponent used Red Cloud Sword to parry/block the opponent's attack, the durability of the opponent's weapon/shield would decrease by at least one or two points, and at most 10 points or more.
After a few exchanges, the opponent's weapon would be in danger of losing its durability, so of course, they would be afraid of the slightest thing.
Considering Red Cloud Sword's high initial attack power, once it was enhanced to + 7, its attack power would soar to 20-43! What did this mean? For reference, the Red Leaf Lord's Glorious Longsword, which was also a Gold-grade weapon, only had a + 7 attack power of 14-27.
As a Gold-grade weapon, Red Cloud Sword was without a doubt a Gold-grade weapon. The only thing that could surpass it was a Dark-Gold weapon.
There was no need for discussion. This sword should be given to Li Shuyi, replacing the Rebel Army Commander's Sword in her hands. Of course, Red Cloud Sword had not been enhanced yet, so its attack power was not high. It should not be replaced for the time being, so it would be better to put it in the storage space first.
After opening the chests, Ji Mingjue happened to come out from the inner hall. Her almond-shaped eyes were full of love, but when she saw Bai Xiaowen and the others, she was slightly stunned.
"White Commander, why haven't you …"
Bai Xiaowen was too lazy to explain, and directly said, "Open the exchange list."
Ji Mingjue's expression froze, and the exchange list was opened again.
After looking at the exchange list before the battle, Bai Xiaowen had been thinking about the order in his heart.
In terms of food, he had already exchanged for five jars of Hundred-Year Flower Eagle, and would replenish them according to the situation. Spiced beef (large piece) could recover 300 HP as long as it was not disturbed for 10 seconds. It was almost equivalent to an extra HP bar. At least a few pieces should be exchanged for backup.
The exchangeable equipment provided by Ji Mingjue was not considered. In the item column, the Blood God's Palace Token was an S-grade summoning item that could greatly increase the team's combat power. It was especially suitable for Bai Xiaowen's fighting style, so it was also a priority to exchange.
The last specialty column was the Bone-Strengthening Pill that increased the upper limit of HP by 10%, and the Qi Replenishing Soup that increased the recovery speed of MP by 10%. Bai Xiaowen did not even consider it. Through calculation, it could be seen that the effect of these two specialties was too small.
Increasing the upper limit of HP by 10% seemed exaggerated, but in fact, the upper limit of an awakened's HP was only a few hundred points. The Bone-Strengthening Pill's upper limit of HP was not significant. As for the recovery speed of MP, it depended on the awakened's total MP value. Take Bai Xiaowen for example, his current MP was 74. He recovered 7.4 MP per minute, which was an increase of 10%? That was an additional 0.74 MP per minute, which was also relatively average.
Both of these were not as good as the Hundred-Year Ginseng, which added 4 Free Attribute Points. Of course, the Hundred-Year Ginseng could not be exchanged too much. It had to be prioritized after the Blood God's Palace Token.
In the end, Bai Xiaowen's group of four summed up and exchanged for the Blood God's Palace Token (Unique), a Hundred-Year Ginseng, a Bone-Softening Powder, a Blinding Powder, four pieces of Spiced Beef (Large Pieces), and two jars of Hundred-Year Flower Eagle. Basically, they had spent all their merit points.
[Bone-Softening Powder * * * Grade Item. This is the Poisonous Guanyin Ji Mingjue's special poison powder. When sprinkled on the enemy, it can reduce their strength by 15% and increase their stamina consumption by 50% for 45 seconds. Requires 1,200 merit points.]
[Blinding Powder * * * Grade Item. This is the Poisonous Guanyin Ji Mingjue's special poison powder. When sprinkled on the enemy, it can temporarily blind them for 45 seconds. Requires 1,200 merit points.]
Bai Xiaowen exchanged the Bone-Softening Powder mainly for its effect in reducing the opponent's strength value. Perhaps it was not of much significance to the leader of the Sword Song Realm who had internal energy protection, but it was still very powerful on the leaders of other realms.
As for the Blinding Powder, needless to say, it was the quicklime that Lord Wei relied on to travel the world in The Deer and the Cauldron! It was really a must-have item for traveling, murdering, and robbing.
Of course, the quicklime from Earth had no way to be effective on people or mutated beasts in the Spiritual Realm. With the existence of the Psionic Force Field, the Blinding Powder was an upgraded version of the quicklime.
After the exchange, Ji Mingjue did not know and continued to speak, "… You haven't left yet?"
Bai Xiaowen coughed, "I am the manager of the Blood God Peak. Of course, I have to wait for the Palace Master's orders at all times."
Ji Mingjue looked at Bai Xiaowen suspiciously and said, "Now that the righteous sects have retreated, what else is there to do? White Commander should go and rest … Oh right, White Commander, are you interested in becoming the Valley Master of the Thousand Snake Valley?"
Bai Xiaowen secretly laughed and shook his head to refuse.
"Think about it carefully. The manager of the Blood God Peak may look impressive, but he is only carrying out the Palace Master's orders all day long. In fact, he is just a butler. How can he be as carefree and happy as the Valley Master of the Thousand Snake Valley? "Ji Mingjue still did not give up and encouraged him.
Bai Xiaowen was just about to speak when footsteps suddenly sounded. From the direction of the banquet hall, two people hurried over. They were the servants of the Blood God Peak.
After seeing Bai Xiaowen, the two servants hurriedly knelt down.
"Reporting to the manager, there are uninvited guests who have broken into the Blood God Peak. They are now in the banquet hall and want the Palace Master to come out!"
Before Bai Xiaowen could speak, Ji Mingjue frowned, "Who are they? How dare they! There are five Division Masters in the banquet hall. Are they just going to watch these people act so presumptuously? "
One of the servants said in fear, "These people seem to have a strong background."
The other servant added, "Valley Master Ying's finger sword was easily broken by the leader with one finger!"
Bai Xiaowen and Ji Mingjue looked at each other and felt shocked. Both of them were aware of Ying Jianfan's strength. In terms of fighting ability, he was almost the leader of the seven Division Masters.
Using his finger as a sword, although it was not a real fight, they could still see the difference in cultivation between the two. Other than the Division Masters of the seven major sects, there was almost no other enemy who could suppress Ying Jianfan.
The martial artists of the Sword Song Plane would not fight with numbers unless it was an extreme situation of life and death. Although there were many masters of the Blood God Palace in the banquet hall, without the Palace Master's order, they would not besiege this group of uninvited guests.
"White Commander, please go to the banquet hall first. I will report to the Palace Master," Ji Mingjue said.
Before he finished speaking, Gu Yulian's voice sounded in the inner hall, "No need, I heard everything."
Accompanied by this voice, Gu Yulian walked out of the inner hall with light steps. She looked at the few people at the door and said slowly, "Let's go. I want to see who dares to behave atrociously in the Blood God Palace!"
In the banquet hall.
What was originally a lively celebratory atmosphere had now turned into a state of mutual hostility.
There were a total of four uninvited guests. The leader was a woman in a purple robe with a new moon embroidered on the back of her robe. Behind her, there were three men in silver robes. All of them had an extraordinary bearing. Bai Xiaowen could tell at a glance that the three men behind them were not nameless extras.
The woman in the purple robe gently knocked on the table, "Where is your Palace Master? Why hasn't he come out yet? I am getting annoyed from waiting. "
The masters of the Blood God Palace were all filled with anger and began to curse.
The woman in the purple robe was happy and content. One of the men in the silver robe behind her said contemptuously, "Your martial arts are not good, so you only rely on your mouth? The clowns of the Blood God Palace are just so-so. "
"Bullshit! Bullshit! "
"You are so smelly. You are courting death!"
The crowd was in a frenzy. The masters got up from the banquet table and were ready to kill these four madmen.
"All of you, back down."
Gu Yulian's voice rang out, and the masters of the Blood God Palace immediately fell silent.
Amidst the greetings of the Palace Master, Gu Yulian, dressed in a white robe, walked to the Palace Master's throne and sat down. She looked down at the four people in the purple robe.
The woman in the purple robe frowned, "Strange, isn't the Palace Master Wei Siqin? Why is it someone else? Who are you? "
These words provoked a wave of reprimand. Gu Yulian narrowed her eyes slightly and said, "I am the sixth master of the Blood God Palace. Palace Master Wei Siqin is my master. Who are you? How dare you come to the Blood God Palace to make trouble. "
The woman in the purple robe looked disappointed and snorted, "So you are Wei Siqin's disciple. Humph, there is no harm in telling you. I am from the Tang Valley of the East Sea. I am one of the Three Moon Emissaries, the New Moon Emissary! "
The three men in silver robes behind her also reported their origins.
"We are the Seven Star Emissaries of the Tang Valley of the East Sea. The Megrez Emissary, the Mizar Emissary, and the Alkaid Emissary!"
The masters of the Blood God Palace looked at each other after the four of them reported their origins.
