Not long after Lu Sheng chatted with He Xiangzi, he saw what it meant to be the first seat.
They were the first seats of the Huangyi Sect nearby. They had come to borrow books, and it was also a friendly exchange.
On the first floor of the main building of the library.
Lu Sheng was dressed in black. As usual, he sat at a table in the corner, quietly watching the three youths in yellow slowly walk in through the door.
"Oh, there are still people here?" the leading handsome youth muttered softly as he glanced at Lu Sheng in the corner in surprise.
A young man behind him patted his shoulder, gesturing for him to keep quiet.
Then, the young man stepped forward and cupped his fists at Lu Sheng from afar, greeting him from afar. Lu Sheng nodded in response.
"I am Ming Bo, the first seat of the Huangyi Sect. I have come to borrow books from your sect. Please forgive me if I have disturbed you." The young man's appearance was average, but he had a dignified aura when he spoke. His voice was sonorous and powerful, and there was no hesitation in his tone. It was like the clashing of metal and stone, giving off a decisive temperament.
"It's fine, please help yourself." Lu Sheng nodded.
One of the three was a young girl who looked very young. She walked at the back and glanced curiously at Lu Sheng. Then, she followed her seniors to search through the bookshelves one by one.
Lu Sheng snapped out of his reverie and continued reading, ignoring the trio's fiddling.
After a while, the three of them found the books they wanted. They found a place to sit down and start reading. The girl occasionally showed a look of disgust because of the moldy spots on the books, but at least she kept quiet and did not make a sound.
He finished reading the miscellaneous books in one go. Lu Sheng slowly closed the book and exhaled.
The light from outside the door had already dimmed. It seemed that it was getting late.
Lu Sheng looked up at the three people. They were just tidying up the books and stood up. Seeing Lu Sheng look over, the first seat of the Huangyi Sect, Ming Bo, smiled at him and gently put the book back. Then, he led the other two out of the library and slowly disappeared outside the door.
Lu Sheng looked in the direction where they left, deep in thought.
"These people, especially that First Seat Ming Bo … are very powerful … The aura that he's unconsciously leaking is similar to that of First Oblatum Bai Jiang of the Northern Lands. He's at least a Six Vein Vein expert. To think that a sect disciple whose bloodline is starting to weaken could cultivate to such a high level … "
He stood up and saw the footprints on the ground. He was slightly moved.
Apart from his own footprints, there were only two other people's footprints on the ground, while Ming Bo's footprints were completely untraceable.
"Huang Yi Sect … I heard it's one of the middle three grades sects …" Lu Sheng remembered the name list he had seen before.
"If the first seat of a middle three grades sect has such strength, then how strong would the upper three grades sect be?" He suddenly felt a little expectant.
At his current level, it was already very difficult for him to find a match among his peers from aristocratic families.
To be honest, Shangyang Jiuli, who had just broken through, might be able to put up a fight against him. There was also the number one genius of the Shangyang Family whom he had yet to meet.
As for the others, he wasn't sure yet.
Lu Sheng walked over to where the three of them were seated and walked along the shelves where they had taken their books. He realized that the books they had taken out were all about the Devil Disaster.
The Devil Disaster was an unstoppable disaster caused by the spread of Devils. Once it happened, the people would be plunged into misery and suffering, with countless casualties.
But there were no details recorded in the books. Much of the content seemed to have been purposely erased, leaving only a blur.
'I don't know how strong that first seat is, but he shouldn't be weaker than First Oblatum Bai Jiang.' Lu Sheng estimated. 'From the looks of it, the sect master should be in the Snake realm. But it's hard to say what level he's at.'
"Dang … dang … dang …"
The bell rang again.
With a wave of his hand, Lu Sheng extinguished the oil lamp on the table with a gust of wind from his palm. He strode out of the library.
During this period of time, his Level Two Karmaless Skill had more or less stabilized. It was time to advance to the next level.
He had more or less figured out what this basic secret skill was. He didn't intend to grind it down slowly, but was prepared to use the Modifier to upgrade it in one go.
The sect was in a bad state now. Quite a few people had left in the past few days. The sect probably wouldn't be able to stay for much longer. Rather than dragging it out slowly, he might as well make use of the Devil's Pool while he could and upgrade Karmaless Skill to the maximum.
He wanted to see what kind of changes the secret skill of the sect could bring to his own skills.
…
Shangyang Family.
Outside the window, many ships sailed past slowly.
Shangyang Jiuli pushed the door open. When she saw the slender figure standing in the room, she was momentarily stunned.
"It's you!?" Her white brows shot up. "Do I know you that well? How dare you barge into my room. If it were anyone else, I'd tear them apart! "
After a period of seclusion, her aura had become sharper and sharper. Compared to when she was in the Northern Lands, it was more profound and heavy, like a heavy and sharp horse-chopping knife.
The person standing in the room was a young woman. She was dressed in emerald green, with a short emerald green knife hanging from her waist. Her features were delicate, and her black hair fell over her shoulders. She looked very lovable. If she didn't carry a weapon, she would be as harmless as a neighbor's little girl.
The most eye-catching thing was the emerald green mark on the woman's forehead. It was a triangular, delicate symbol that looked like a flower.
The moment Shangyang Jiuli saw the mark, her entire body trembled violently.
"They … they really chose you."
"Luckily, it's just the right to come into contact with them. For the current me, it's still a little early. Why are you disappointed, Big Sister? " The woman smiled and said softly, "You and I are both the future of the Shangyang Family. In the future, I'll be the head of the family, and Big Sister will be the second in command. If I become the Divine Weapon Master, Big Sister will be the head of the family. With us sisters working together, how many people in the Central Plains can stand up to us? "
"Shangyang Fei … you're almost exactly the same as your brother. Back then, he also said such arrogant words." Shangyang Jiuli took a few deep breaths and calmed herself down.
"Big Brother … he died a worthy death. Sacrificing himself for the family was his lifelong wish and dream," Shangyang Fei said with a smile. "Big Brother wanted the Shangyang Family to stand at the top of the Nine Great Families of the Central Plains. This was his wish, and also my goal."
Shangyang Jiuli looked at the woman in front of her helplessly.
Shangyang Fei, the number one genius of the Shangyang Family. In the history of the Shangyang Family, there were only two people who could match her in growth. The first two were top-notch experts who led the Shangyang Family to dominate for a time. They were both once the strongest Divine Weapon Masters in the Central Plains!
As the number one genius born after her, Shangyang Fei broke through Five Vein at the age of ten, Seven Vein at the age of fifteen, and entered the Snake Realm at the age of twenty. Now, at the age of twenty-five … she was unfathomable!
"She's even gotten the initial acknowledgment of the Mountain Shepherding Brush …" Shangyang Jiuli felt powerless when she saw the triangular mark on her forehead.
That mark was the symbol of a Divine Weapon or Devil Blade. It meant that Shangyang Fei had gotten the initial contact with the Mountain Shepherding Brush, the Divine Weapon of the Shangyang Family.
This woman … this woman!
Shangyang Jiuli's heart was filled with disappointment, but she didn't feel indignant. She knew very well how terrifying this woman was.
Her talent was better than her own, and she worked much harder than her own. She was ambitious, capable, and resourceful!
Whether it was in terms of drawing in the family or developing her own cultivation, Shangyang Jiuli knew that she was no match for her.
It was just that Shangyang Fei's words and actions were gentle on the surface, but they often gave off a domineering aura. She didn't allow rejection, and she didn't allow resistance. Hidden under the gentle and loving facade was absolute coldness and assertiveness.
"Speak, what business do you have with me?" Shangyang Jiuli collected her thoughts and said coldly.
"First, I have to congratulate Big Sister Jiuli for entering the middle three grades and stabilizing your bloodline," Shangyang Fei said with a smile. "Secondly, the Thirteenth Elder has been investigating the matter for several months. I wonder if Big Sister has heard of it."
Shangyang Jiuli nodded.
"I've heard about the matter with the Thirteenth Elder."
"Then that's easy." Shangyang Fei raised her hand lightly, and a piece of white paper floated up from the table and shot toward Shangyang Jiuli.
"The Ninth Order Saber appeared, the Evil Jade Crystal Ten Spear appeared, the Void Revolution appeared, and the North, South, and West all had strange occurrences. And that Jade of Secrets … compared to the past few years, there's been a lot of commotion. "
"So?" Shangyang Jiuli asked coldly. She knew that this cousin of hers wouldn't bother her for no reason. She must have a request. "Can it be worse than the drought in Yun Province?"
Shangyang Fei smiled. "The three Divine Weapons and Devil Blades have appeared. The key to finding them lies in the Jade of Secrets, and now Huang Shuling of the Huang Family is involved. Normally, suppressing Huang Shuling wouldn't be a big deal. But now, I have to deal with other people, and Huang Shuling really can't deal with her … I can't ask the Elders for help either, so I came to you for help. "
"Huang Shuling of the Huang Family …" Shangyang Jiuli remembered that woman. She was a difficult character. As one of the Nine Families, Huang Shuling was also the number one genius of the Huang Family, about the same level as herself, but much weaker than Shangyang Fei.
"Sure. You're the acting Family Head anyway. Who would dare to disobey you? "Shangyang Jiuli said coldly.
"If possible, I hope you can capture the mortal who has the Jade of Secrets alive as well. I'm very curious as to how a mortal could avoid being attacked by a Divine Weapon and keep it on him for so long." Shangyang Fei smiled.
Shangyang Jiuli felt disgusted just by looking at this woman's smile.
When the Liu Family of Yun Province was annihilated, she was one of the people who went to kill the Liu Family.
Now that she said she was curious, Shangyang Fei would probably dissect the mortal alive out of curiosity, cut him up into pieces, and then study him in detail.
She had seen that bloody scene with her own eyes.
"I understand."
…
Prime Devil Sect.
Grand Elder sat cross-legged in the cave, looking at the six people left in front of him. Another three disciples had run away during this time.
He was numb, or rather, disheartened.
How could he dare to hand over the Prime Devil Secret Art to such disciples? Once he did, they would probably run away and join other sects.
Sighing inwardly, he continued his previous narration.
"Speaking of the origin of the secret art, it actually comes from all Divine Weapons and Devil Blades. The power of Divine Weapons and Devil Blades is known as Law, and is marked by a special triangular symbol … "Grand Elder looked at the six people in front of him.
Fei Huangzi was absent-minded, but He Xiangzi was listening intently. The others were drowsy, their eyes wandering. Their minds weren't here at all.
Their minds were wandering … and they already had the intention to leave …
Grand Elder's heart ached even more. The Prime Devil Sect, which had flourished in its heyday, now only had these few disciples left …
But he suddenly noticed that other than Fei Huangzi and He Xiangzi, among the other disciples, Lu Sheng, who joined later, seemed to be listening very intently as well. This made him feel a little more comforted.
"… This triangular symbol is extremely intricate and complex. It represents the intrinsic power of every Divine Weapon and Devil Blade. It is the power that we call Law. And the secret art is actually an imitation of Law, a power that was discovered by the ancestors of the Noble Families and sects.
"The power of Law is extremely terrifying. Any attack that appears with the symbol is unstoppable, except for those at the same level. The secret art is an imitation and derivative of Law. But its power is much, much weaker. It's a simplified version of the profundity at the edge of Law. "He was talking about the historical origin of the Prime Devil Sect's secret art. As a disciple of the Prime Devil Sect, he naturally had to know about the sect's founder and the sect's history.
