The study of runes was developing well in the Great Yin, mainly in the field of formations and talisman paper. This was the study of symbols that originated from Divine Weapons and Devil Blades, and was originally a branch of imitation. It mainly focused on drawing the runes of Divine Weapons and Devil Blades to achieve similar effects.
Although the effects were weak due to imitation, the study of runes was still a popular invention in the upper class of the Great Yin that changed the quality of life.
Lu Sheng was very interested in this. Normal civilians weren't allowed to enter the talisman shop, and the goods inside were limited goods from the three major sects and the government. Needless to say, the books on talisman making were only the most basic ones.
After shopping, Lu Sheng returned to his house, rejected all guests, and cultivated in seclusion every day. He only occasionally went shopping at night to see if there was anything worth buying.
After Chen Jing promoted him to a true disciple, his treatment increased immediately. He got 50 taels of Devil Gold and 100 taels of gold as a monthly allowance. He also got three types of free pills.
The Little Red Pill for healing, the Little Green Pill for filling the stomach, and the Little Detoxification Pill for detoxification. The three pills didn't have names. Little Red and Little Green were just random names that people called them. The Little Detoxification Pill was very weak, and could only slow down poison. That was why people didn't bother to name it.
Other than that, he also got a set of exquisite clothes for true disciples with dust-repelling formations and extendable formations. There was also a beautifully decorated sword that could only be used to look good.
In addition, he could choose any set of Earth Grade True Art secret manuals to cultivate in the sect. The main technique of the Thousand Sun Sect was called the Light of the Great Sun Technique.
This True Qi technique could be cultivated from the lowest Bind level to the peak of Earth Prime.
Lu Sheng had always been interested in this set of True Qi skills. However, before he mastered the Officiator's basic cultivation method, he had no way of obtaining this True Qi skill.
However, after entering the Secret Area, he completed the basic Spring Sun Mind Fixing Mantra in advance. His True Qi cultivation successfully broke through to the Two Vein level, and he was qualified to cultivate an official technique.
Before he could go to the sect to get the manual, Elder Zhang Shilong took the initiative to send him the manual of the Light of the Great Sun Technique. He even moved to the side of his house and stayed there. As neighbors, Elder Zhang Shilong specially guided him in his cultivation progress.
Very quickly, Lu Sheng also learned that his information had been urgently sent to the upper sect in the prefectural city, and it was being reported to the higher-ups. It was very likely that it had already reached the headquarters in the prefecture city.
After all, it involved that Lord, and the implications were too great. Lu Sheng was also worshipped by them like a god of plague.
In the blink of an eye, more than ten days had passed.
After cultivating the Light of the Great Sun Technique as usual, Lu Sheng got up, changed his clothes, and prepared to go for a stroll in the surroundings. Recently, he had been fascinated by the huge copper wire formation laid out on the ground of the entire county city.
There were hundreds of main runes, variant runes, and talisman formulas used in this huge formation that enveloped the entire county city. Many of them were simple formations suitable for beginners like him to observe and learn.
What Lu Sheng liked to do the most was to walk around the formation in the evening, and observe the changes of the formation during the day and night.
The black horse carriage moved along the bustling traffic, following the lines of the formation on the ground, gradually turning to an increasingly remote corner of the wall.
Lu Sheng sat comfortably on the seat, his eyes carefully staring at the copper wire buried in the ground by the roadside. Those copper wires that looked like decorative patterns, in his eyes, were special and completely different mysterious symbols.
Whoosh!
Suddenly, the horse carriage slowly stopped. In front of the carriage, a dirty man was lying on the ground, blocking the carriage's path.
The man seemed to have fainted, lying motionlessly on the ground.
"What happened?" Lu Sheng asked with a frown. The carriage suddenly stopped, interrupting his train of thought, this was not a good feeling.
"Young Master, there is someone lying on the ground in front, blocking the way." The driver was also a veteran sent by the sect to take care of Lu Sheng's travels. Hearing this, he hurriedly said disdainfully, "Don't worry, it will be taken care of immediately."
"En." Lu Sheng nodded. If he had to personally take care of such a small matter, then he would be annoyed to death by all the small matters in the future.
Lu Sheng lowered his head and continued to look at the simple formation disk in his hand. But after the driver got off, not long after, there was no sound. Only then did he raise his head, coming back to his senses from the formation.
"Old An?"
There was no response from outside the carriage.
He frowned slightly, already having a rough idea of what had happened.
"Get off the carriage." A low voice came from outside, sounding somewhat familiar.
Lu Sheng closed the book, opened the carriage door, and slowly walked down.
The afterglow of the setting sun dyed the surroundings bright red. In the corner, a few unfamiliar young men and women were surrounding the carriage.
The person standing at the front was single-handedly putting down Old An, who was driving the carriage, and letting him fall sideways to the ground.
"Looks like you're doing well." This person's tone was filled with strong sarcasm.
Lu Sheng carefully looked at his face, feeling that he probably did not know this person.
"Do you know me?"
"You!!?" The man's eyes instantly turned red. "You almost killed me!! You … you've actually forgotten!? "
"While there's no one watching, hurry up, we don't have much time," a long-haired woman with sharp eyes said coldly.
"I know, I just … just feel indignant!" The man suppressed his anger and said in a low voice. "It's because of this person that I had to leave my hometown, the home that I've lived in for decades …"
"We didn't accept your business just to listen to your nonsense," the woman said impatiently.
At this time, Lu Sheng finally recognized the man's identity.
"It's you, the pitiful worm from back then? Inspector? "He came to a sudden realization, a trace of surprise on his face. "You didn't die?"
"You!!!" The inspector's eyes became more and more bloodshot. Thinking back to the fear of death, the anger in his heart grew stronger.
"Kill!! Kill him for me!!! "he suddenly roared.
With a six-vein master personally taking action, he did not believe that this Lu Sheng would not die this time!
The inspector, who was familiar with formations and surveillance methods, had been waiting for this day for a long time. He had been following Lu Sheng's daily routine all this time, and finally, this moment had come.
"Ten Forms of Dazzling Life Sword, Light of Dawn!" The woman gently pulled out the long sword at her waist. It was as if what she pulled out was not a sword, but light, a dazzling green crystalline beam.
"Pew pew pew pew pew!!"
Beams of green light shot out, charging at Lu Sheng from four directions at an incredible speed.
At the same time, another man leaped into the air, a giant guandao appearing in front of him. He gripped the hilt of the guandao and slashed it down from the air.
"Whoosh!"
The giant guandao glowed white as it slashed down along the roof of the carriage.
"That's not how you use a guandao." Lu Sheng gently raised his right palm.
Suddenly, a purple light flashed between his brows, and he clenched his fist.
"Boom!!"
Countless wisps of white smoke exploded.
"Pew pew pew pew pew pew!!"
In an instant, five giant black guandao appeared on the sides of the carriage, like closing petals, and instantly fell toward the center.
In the blink of an eye, Lu Sheng's hands transformed into five sabers, slashing in all directions and grabbing at the crescent sabers.
Clang clang clang clang clang!!
The five guandao slashed at the same point of the man's guandao. The guandao instantly shattered, and the man's well-built body was like a rag doll in mid-air, cut by the continuous slashes of the guandao.
The guandao spun and fell, colliding with the green sword qi around it. Because its power had been weakened, it finally collapsed.
The carriage was riddled with holes by the sword qi that followed closely behind.
However, Lu Sheng, who had been sitting in the carriage, had already disappeared.
"Bam!!!"
The woman with the green sword suddenly felt a sharp pain in her chest. Her whole body felt like it had been rammed by a herd of elephants, and she was smashed hard onto the ground.
She did not know when Lu Sheng had appeared in front of her. He grabbed her long hair with one hand, and suddenly flung it to the side.
After a loud sound, a large hole was smashed into the stone wall of the residential house. The woman spat out a mouthful of blood, her eyes filled with fear, and she was about to beg for mercy.
"Puchi!"
A white arm lightly pierced her forehead.
"Even black membrane has a weakness." Lu Sheng pulled out his hand, and shook off the brain and blood on it. "The strongest is also the weakest. All experts who have their black membrane broken are only equivalent to mortals …"
He strolled in front of the inspector, whose legs were already trembling, and looked at him calmly and sympathetically.
"Puchi."
The two corpses behind him finally fell to the ground, and they quickly burned into black ash and dissipated.
"I … I …" The inspector stuttered, his face twisted, and tears and snot flowed uncontrollably.
"Poor child …" Lu Sheng stretched out his hand and gently stroked his hair. "It's not you who's wrong, it's this world."
"Crack." The inspector's neck bone broke, and his entire head was completely torn off. His eyes were wide open, and he had a completely ignorant and stunned expression on his face. There was no blood, only the corpse that was rapidly turning into black ash.
In just a moment, only the remains of the three corpses were left with the remains of clothes.
Lu Sheng could actually guess that this inspector was a pawn sent out by the other forces in the county capital to test him.
Everyone wanted to know how the legendary disciple who had received guidance was different from an ordinary person.
Therefore, in this chaotic world where human lives were worthless, the inspector with ulterior motives was used as a tool.
Lu Sheng could already tell that the inspector originally wanted to keep the peace, and didn't have any desire for revenge. However, a faint, twisted aura emanated from his body, and it continuously increased the anger and hatred in his consciousness.
"Black membrane with only two veins could actually kill a six veins hired assassin … Tsk tsk tsk … As expected of the second true disciple of the Thousand Sun Sect."
Not far from the broken carriage, a flirtatious girl in a black dress slowly appeared.
"Someone from the Spirit Bind Sect?" Lu Sheng was a bit surprised. He hadn't been in the Autumn Moon County Capital for long, and he only knew who the strongest of the three major sects were.
This girl was extremely beautiful, and her figure was alluring. She had the special mark of the Spirit Bind Sect on her left chest — a large white "bind" character.
"Remember my name, Bai Luying." The girl glanced at the remains on the ground, tapped the tip of her foot, and jumped up, leaving behind a string of bell-like laughter. "We will meet again."
Lu Sheng didn't know why this girl came here. It wasn't likely that she had ordered the inspector to attack him. The three major sects competed and supported each other, but not to the point of killing each other. Once discovered, it would be the same as a great crime of rebellion.
After watching the girl leave, Lu Sheng stretched his body and returned to the carriage to pick up his things. He still had to go back and cultivate the Light of the Great Sun Technique.
He didn't have the time to play guessing games with a little girl in this small place.
