Xiao Chen already had a rough idea of what the waiter said, so he could not help but feel disappointed.
The waiter could tell that Xiao Chen wanted him to leave, so he said, "Young Hero, there is a piece of news that you will definitely be interested in."
Xiao Chen raised his head and asked, "What is it?"
"Hehe! About this …" The waiter hesitated. Xiao Chen understood what he meant and gave him another five Astral Coins.
The waiter said happily, "Young Hero is indeed a straightforward person. In that case, I'll be direct. The Eternal Heavenly Sword School is preparing to auction off a broken sword. It is a fragment of a Sub-Divine Weapon."
When Xiao Chen heard that, he raised his eyebrows slightly. He said, "Sub-Divine Weapons are worth cities. Even Emperor Wu would be interested. A fragment of a Sub-Divine Weapon would be worth a lot as well. It would attract some Martial Sages. However, this is not really big news."
The waiter smiled mysteriously and said, "What if it is the sword that the Thunder King used back then?"
Right after the waiter spoke, Xiao Chen and Ao Jiao, who was in the Immortal Spirit Ring, were stunned at the same time, clearly shocked.
Xiao Chen remembered that when he obtained the Thunder Wood Sword back then, he only had half of it. The other half was nowhere to be found.
"Why is the other half of the sword in their hands?!" Ao Jiao exclaimed excitedly from the Immortal Spirit Ring. "Xiao Chen, ask around and see if it is true."
Seeing that Xiao Chen did not believe him, the waiter quickly said, "This insignificant one does not dare to lie. In the past few years, the Eternal Heavenly Sword School has occasionally auctioned off some treasures with sky-high prices. They are all worth cities. Other sects would definitely hide them, but the Eternal Heavenly Sword School sold them. "
Xiao Chen raised his wine cup and took a sip. He revealed a pondering expression. According to what the waiter said, the Eternal Heavenly Sword School's actions were very strange.
"What is the name of the auction house? When is it being held?"
Xiao Chen did not know about this. Since he did, he would definitely go and see if there was a chance to obtain the other half of the sword.
However, the chances were slim. After all, it was just a fragment of a Sub-Divine Weapon. That half was already worth cities.
The materials needed to forge a Sub-Divine Weapon were all rare resources. Many of them were treasures that could only be found by luck. Once one missed it, one would have to wait for hundreds of years.
After the Sub-Divine Weapon was forged, it would interest several Martial Sages. This was especially so for the sects preparing to forge a Sub-Divine Weapon. They would spend a lot to buy it.
Once the Sub-Divine Weapon was successfully forged, the owner's strength would immediately increase by 50%. It would not seem exaggerated at all.
Furthermore, this Divine Weapon was once the sword of the Thunder Emperor, which added to its legend.
Given Xiao Chen's wealth, competing with these people was not realistic.
It was not to compete with the Chen about it. "The About it," not it said, "Chen, with with with, the Chen, with Would not have it.
On the 30th of the month, that would be the day after tomorrow. It wouldn't take long.
Xiao Chen waved his hand and dismissed the waiter. Then, he said to Ao Jiao in his heart, What do you think? Why is the remaining half of the sword in the hands of the Eternal Heavenly Sword School?
Waving his hand, Xiao Chen dismissed the waiter. Then, he said to Ao Jiao in his heart, What do you think? How did the other half of the sword end up in the hands of the Eternal Heavenly Sword School?
"You mean to say that the Eternal Heavenly Sword Sage betrayed the Thunder King back then?" Xiao Chen asked probingly as he put down his wine cup.
Ao Jiao shook her head slightly and said, "Not necessarily. Given the Eternal Heavenly Sword Sage's strength back then, even if the Thunder King was severely injured, he could have easily killed him."
Xiao Chen said somewhat helplessly, "What should I do with the other half of the sword? With my current wealth, it would be very difficult to obtain it."
His competitors would definitely be Martial Sages. Compared to Martial Sages, Xiao Chen's one hundred thousand Astral Coins paled in comparison. He had no chance of winning.
Ao Jiao did not seem to care about this. She sighed softly and said, "We'll leave it to fate. We just need to pay attention to who obtains it in the end. Perhaps there will be a chance to get it back in the future. When the Lunar Shadow Saber advances to a Sub-Divine Weapon, it will save us a lot of trouble."
After eating and drinking, Xiao Chen rented an independent courtyard at the back of the inn for peace and quiet.
When the sky turned dark, a cultivator from the Magnificent Fiend Hall arrived in the most chaotic area of Hunluo City, the western district. This cultivator walked over in fear and trepidation. After looking around, he found his destination and carefully arrived at a courtyard.
The western district was filled with ferocious loose cultivators. If not for the Magnificent Fiend Hall's identity token, he would not have been able to enter this district as a Medial Grade Martial Monarch.
When this cultivator saw the doors before him, horror flashed in his eyes. Wu Yuankai, one of Hunluo City's Ten Evildoers, lived in this courtyard.
The Ten Evildoers were all great bandits of the Tianwu Domain and the Fiend Domain. Even the weakest of them was a half-Sage. The top three evildoers were even Martial Sages.
The six great sects of Hunluo City would not casually offend these three.
This cultivator calmed himself and carefully knocked on the door knocker a few times. Then, he said loudly, "Senior Wu, I am a disciple of the Magnificent Fiend Hall. The news you are waiting for has arrived."
Wu Yuankai's voice reverberated in the dark night for a long time. However, there was no reply from the courtyard. This scared the Magnificent Fiend Hall cultivator waiting outside.
"Come in!"
After a long time, a hoarse voice came from inside. The Magnificent Fiend Hall cultivator quickly pushed the door open and entered the courtyard.
Wu Yuankai, who was dressed in sackcloth robes, looked indifferently at the newcomer and said, "The Magnificent Fiend Hall is only so-so. It took you seven days to find a person."
The newcomer smiled and said, "Hunluo Province is so big. Finding a person is like finding a needle in a haystack. It is not an easy task. Take a look. This is the down payment, fifty thousand Astral Coins. After the matter is over, I will give you the other half. "
Wu Yuankai received a Space Ring from the person. After checking it, a look of greed flashed across his eyes. He grinned and said, "Give me that person's address. Wait for my good news in three days."
"Thank you, Senior. I will take my leave first."
That person handed over Xiao Chen's address and left in a hurry, not willing to stay for another second.
Wu Yuankai took a look at the address and said softly, "Since I took someone's money, I have to help them deal with their problems. Junior, don't blame me for being ruthless."
The auction would begin on the thirtieth of the month. Hunluo City was in chaos for three days. Xiao Chen was not in the mood to go out and take a stroll, so he focused all his energy on cultivating.
"Ghostly Image Chop!"
"Blue Dragon Goes to Sea!"
"Soaring Dragon!"
In the small courtyard, Xiao Chen used less than one percent of his Quintessence to execute the three Heaven Ranked Martial Techniques that he knew.
Of the three Heaven Ranked Martial Techniques, Soaring Dragon was definitely the strongest. This was because it contained the might of a True Dragon soaring. It was the strongest of the three.
Furthermore, it was a move that Xiao Chen could perfectly grasp. With this move, no Superior Grade Martial Monarch would be a match for him. Even a half-Sage would not dare to clash head-on.
Of course, the other two moves were not just for show. Ghostly Image Chop was a combination of moves. Once Xiao Chen found his opponent's weak point, he would have a fifty percent chance of killing his opponent in one move.
Even against a half-Sage, Xiao Chen had a fifty percent chance of killing his opponent in one move.
As for Blue Dragon Goes to Sea, it was a Heaven Ranked Martial Technique that could be used multiple times. It was not like Soaring Dragon and Ghostly Image Chop, which exhausted a large amount of Quintessence and Mental Energy.
Under normal circumstances, Xiao Chen would use it the most. The other two could be used as killing moves.
Aside from this, Xiao Chen also had the Dragon Tone Art. When he caught his opponent off guard, he could obtain an unexpected result. Furthermore, it was very effective against Spirit Beasts.
As for using the Dragon Tone Art to deal with the Deity Race experts, Xiao Chen did not dare to be too presumptuous. After all, he had not seen the Deity Race's Mental Energy Martial Techniques before.
Naturally, the Taiji Yinyang Flame Diagram was the best trump card for Xiao Chen. This Taiji Yinyang Flame Diagram could easily block the full-powered strikes of two half-Sages. Its potential was limitless.
During these three days, Xiao Chen made a simple assessment of his strength. This could be considered a summary of his overall strength after his fight with Liu Chen and Situ Lei.
"On the surface, my weakness appears to be my insufficient cultivation. However, it is actually my will."
Xiao Chen withdrew his saber and calmly analyzed the situation. Actually, the cultivation of the seven giants was about the same. However, Bai Wuxue and the others were several times weaker than An Junxi.
There were many reasons for this. However, the most important one was that An Junxi's will far surpassed theirs.
Although their cultivations were the same, their strength was on a completely different level. In fact, several Inferior Grade Martial Sages were no longer a match for An Junxi.
"The most crucial thing is to comprehend a will. After this trip, I have to rush to the place that Ao Jiao mentioned. Who is it? Hiding there, acting sneakily. "
Suddenly, Xiao Chen's expression changed. He turned around and retreated a hundred meters. Then, he placed his right hand on his saber hilt and stared coldly at Wu Yuankai, who was standing on the wall.
Wu Yuankai looked at Xiao Chen and silently landed on the ground. He smiled sinisterly and said, "Your vigilance is pretty good. Unfortunately, you are going to be a dead man soon."
Wu Yuankai did not look particularly old; he looked like a middle-aged man. However, the wrinkles at the corners of his eyes and the vicissitudes of life in his eyes gave off a feeling of lethargy.
Wu Yuankai's large black robes wrapped around his body tightly. He wore a pair of dark gold gloves on his hands. "Wu Yuankai!
Wu Yuankai! Wu Yuankai! " There was clearly nothing around Wu Yuankai's body, but occasionally, miserable cries could be heard. In the quiet night, the miserable cries tugged at the taut strings in the minds of cultivators.
When this person landed, Xiao Chen took advantage of the opportunity to retreat another two hundred meters. He looked at the other party with a grave expression, not daring to be careless.
Xiao Chen's Mental Energy was vast and boundless, and his Spiritual Sense was very sharp. Normally, he would be able to discover a hostile cultivator within a kilometer of him.
However, Wu Yuankai only got within a hundred meters of Xiao Chen before he was discovered. If Xiao Chen had been any later, he might have been killed in a sneak attack.
Occasionally, the disturbing cries resounded. Although Xiao Chen was not greatly affected, he kept feeling that something was wrong.
Xiao Chen tried to focus his Spiritual Sense in his eyes. When he squinted, he discovered ten-odd scarlet ribbons of light that were hard to see with the naked eye surrounding Wu Yuankai.
The ribbons of light were as fine as needles and thread. As they circled Wu Yuankai, they undulated like waves.
As the scarlet ribbons of light moved, the Spiritual Energy of the world scattered and gathered like rain. As the scarlet ribbons of light moved, the Spiritual Energy of the world scattered and gathered like rain.
