A ball of golden Yang Essence quickly wrapped around the horsetail whisk and put it on his back. Lu Sheng didn't even look at the ashes on the ground. He leaped lightly and disappeared into the distance in a flash of black light.
As for the identity and cultivation of this Daoist, he didn't care. For him, who had grasped the characteristics of the Eight-Headed Golden Flame, as long as it wasn't at the level of a Divine Lord, he could just set fire to it.
As for the Taoist's last daze, he had killed too many people. In these two short months, he had killed at least eight thousand, if not ten thousand. Why would he care about a Taoist he met by chance?
Even if he had the Jade Star Divine Weapon.
…
Shoumin County, Penghao Town.
"What's wrong? Little De. " Qiong Shang felt his companion suddenly stop and also stopped. He looked at him in confusion.
A flash of pain appeared on Huo Chengde's cold face.
"Nothing … My heart suddenly hurts. Maybe it's because I've been too tired recently. I'll be fine after some rest. "
"Speaking of which, we won't cause you trouble if we hide from your family, will we?" Li Shunxi frowned and asked softly. "Uncle Huo is one of the famous Four Elders of Mountain and Water. If he finds out you're hiding us …"
"I trust my father. He's never disappointed me." Huo Chengde shook his head.
His father, Huo Xinyuan, had built the Huo Family from nothing. He had the Divine Weapon, the White Deer Horsetail Whisk, and it was very powerful.
Even as the youngest in the family, he was rumored to be the most useless. When he got into trouble, he could rely on his father's reputation to get away with it. It was clear how much influence Huo Xinyuan had in the Shoumin County.
But recently, Huo Chengde had heard rumors that his father, Huo Xinyuan, was secretly in contact with the Devil Army of the Devil World and was exchanging something.
He brought his friend home for two reasons. One was to find a place for him to hide. The other was to persuade his father to stop doing business with the Devil Race.
Although the Imperial Court was weak and the three sects didn't care, humans and devils were different. Once the situation stabilized, people like his father who made money from war would be punished.
The three of them walked on the right side of the street. From time to time, they could hear passersby casually chatting about some of the major events in the town.
Li Shunxi's cultivation was not bad now. His five senses had been modified by the Divine Weapon and were extremely sharp. At this moment, he heard the shop assistants in front of him chatting about the recent major events.
"How tragic … It would have been better if you hadn't gone. I couldn't help but run over to take a look. Tsk tsk, the entire family of 108 people, not a single one was spared. All of them were roasted, and all the meat on their bodies had been gnawed off. All that was left were bones and hair that couldn't be eaten …"
"Demons again?"
"It doesn't look like it. The county's army came to take a look and determined that it wasn't a demon. It was some monster released by the Huo Clan. It seemed to have perished together with the Huo Clan's internal formation."
"Who are you trying to fool?"
"Anyway, that monster should have escaped long ago. Even if it's going to launch a sneak attack, it should target the garrison first. We're just ordinary people, what's there to be afraid of? … "
As he listened, Li Shunxi's expression turned a little strange. Huo Chengde was one of the companions he had brought with him when he went to pick up Qiong Shang from the Demon's side.
In these two months, the three of them, along with the Little Demoness, could be said to have suffered all kinds of hardships and tribulations. The most obvious was the Little Demoness. She was originally a beautiful and enchanting little demoness, but now she had lost a lot of weight.
And now, even Brother Huo's family was going to be in trouble? How unfair was the heavens!
Huo Chengde's footsteps subconsciously stopped. He had also heard the shop assistants' chatter.
His footsteps paused, and then he suddenly sped up, rushing in the direction of his home.
"Xiao De! Wait! "Li Shunxi and Qiong Shang were shocked and hurried to catch up.
The three of them quickly arrived at the Huo Manor. What they saw was no longer a prosperous manor, only a pile of ruins and broken walls.
Huo Chengde walked to the front door in a daze. Suddenly, he knelt on the ground and covered his face with his hands.
…
Autumn Moon County, Thousand Sun Palace.
Lu Sheng played with the horsetail whisk in his hand as he listened to the Divine Weapon's will continuously beg for mercy. His expression was calm, and his emotions did not waver.
The Wei River Sword hung on the wall, also silent. He had seen Lu Sheng take Divine Weapons and Devil Blades into the secret room across from him, and none of them ever came back out.
He didn't know where they all went, and why he couldn't sense any aura at all. But this was Lu Sheng's secret, and he couldn't ask.
Only this horsetail whisk was left. Lu Sheng carefully held it in his hand, and slowly comprehended it.
"What's the difference between Golden Leaf and Jade Star? What determines whether a Divine Weapon is Golden Leaf or Jade Star? "Lu Sheng asked in a low voice.
"I don't know either. I've lost a lot of my memories …" The Wei River Sword was silent for a while, and then slowly answered.
Lu Sheng didn't expect the Wei River Sword to answer this question. It was like asking an ordinary person to answer what determines the difference between himself and a genius.
During this time, he had been hunting Divine Weapons and Devil Blades like crazy, avoiding the Wei River Sword and his subordinates every time. As he devoured more and more Divine Weapons, Lu Sheng's body was gradually tainted with a strange scent. It wasn't the scent of flowers, nor was it the scent of stench.
It smelled like metal and rust, but it wasn't all of it.
"Forget it, you can leave now." Lu Sheng grasped the Wei River Sword and swung it at the window.
The Wei River Sword immediately shot out, and flew nimbly into the nearby Weapon Vault.
Lu Sheng stood up, and was about to walk to the secret room across from him with the horsetail whisk, ready to devour more Divine Weapons.
Suddenly, a streak of white light flashed across the sky outside the window. A pure white sparrow-like bird shot through the window like an arrow, and landed on the ground in front of Lu Sheng.
The little sparrow exploded into a cloud of white smoke. The smoke rose into the air, and dispersed in the blink of an eye, turning into a beautiful little girl in a white feather robe.
"Bai Ying greets Prefectural Master Lu." There was a red dot between the girl's brows, and her True Qi was pure and delicate, without any of the demon's turbid Essence Qi. Anyone who saw her would feel at ease.
"Do you have something to report, Daoist Tong Yi?" Lu Sheng recognized this girl. She was a little demon that Divine Lord Tong Yi brought with him. She was Divine Lord Tong Yi's Dao attendant.
"Yes, the Old Master has ordered that there have been a series of assassinations in the vicinity recently. Neither humans nor demons have a good ending. Even the Divine Weapons and Devil Blades haven't responded at all. Many small aristocratic families and sects are panicking, and this panic has even spread to the outer counties. Prefectural Master, please send some experts to investigate. "
Lu Sheng's heart skipped a beat. Did Divine Lord Tong Yi notice the assassinations?
"Please tell Daoist Tong Yi that I understand."
"Okay." The little girl Bai Ying nodded, squatted down, and turned into a little white sparrow again. She flapped her wings and flew into the distance.
Lu Sheng stood where he was, and slowly pulled his hand out of his wide sleeves. He touched the cool and smooth horsetail whisk, and seemed to be deep in thought.
"I've accumulated enough Divine Weapons and Devil Blades for now. Let's digest them first. I'll stop for now and leave them for later."
Lu Sheng let out a breath of turbid air, and floated forward through the opened door, and flew into the secret room of the Taoist Palace.
The door to the secret room closed slowly. Lu Sheng sat down cross-legged and waved his hand.
Faint yellow lights lit up in the four corners of the room. The patterns of the formation on the ground flashed a faint gold.
Lu Sheng sat down in the middle of the formation, and suddenly raised his hand to look at the 'Evil' character on his palm.
"The sacrificial ceremony starts tomorrow, at the same place as last time. Don't forget …" Shizi Xing's voice came from the character.
Lu Sheng got goosebumps just by hearing the voice.
"I won't forget," he whispered to the 'Evil' character.
"There are many Evil Art Masters participating in the sacrificial ceremony this time, and many want to go to the Physical World. Don't agree to anything rashly. Remember not to tell them your name and birthday. Remember, "Shizi Xing reminded him.
"What if I accidentally leak it?" Lu Sheng asked after a moment of silence.
"Then I'll kill you," Shizi Xing answered succinctly.
Lu Sheng was silent.
Recently, he had talked to Shizi Xing quite a bit, and had a general understanding of the Black Society's system in the World of Pain.
In the entire World of Pain, there were only two categories: Evil Art Masters and Mirror Spirit Masters. Evil Art Masters were the source of Divine Weapons, and Mirror Spirit Masters were the source of Devil Blades.
When Evil Art Masters failed in forging Evil Weapons, they would throw them into the Human World, and use the flesh and blood of the Human World as sacrificial offerings to increase their strength. In the future, they could extract them and use them as materials.
Mirror Spirit Masters were the same, except that they forged Mirror Demons, and the defective ones were thrown into the Devil World.
Their goal, or dream, was to forge the strongest weapon that could kill The Mother Of Pain, destroy the source of all pain, destroy the sins of all living beings, and remake the rules of the world.
"I understand," Lu Sheng answered in a low voice. Even Xiao Zizhu couldn't resist Shizi Xing's power, so naturally he was no match for her.
The Evil Art ended the communication.
Lu Sheng calmed down and sat where he was. After a long while, he lightly pulled the rope in the corner.
Soon, a Thousand Sun Sect disciple outside asked.
"Sect Master, what are your orders?"
"Bring me the Three Elements Scriptures, Mixed Element Sword Scripture, Earth Fire Spell, and other basic techniques." Lu Sheng had long since organized the basic True Skill manuals that he needed in the library. Now, all he had to do was ask someone to bring him the books.
"Yes."
The disciple left quickly, and returned quickly, bringing the books in through a special tunnel in the secret room.
"Anything else, Sect Master?"
"Go. Come see me in three days," Lu Sheng said lightly.
"Yes …"
The disciple left slowly, and the sound of his footsteps faded away.
With a wave of Lu Sheng's hand, a total of five basic True Skill manuals appeared in a row before him.
"These are all the basic True Qi techniques in the Thousand Sun Sect's collection. They can turn Spiritual Essence into five basic True Essence. "
With a flick of Lu Sheng's finger, a ball of Yang Essence shot out and floated above the five booklets.
"Mixed Element Sword Scripture," "Earth Fire Spell," "Three Elements Scripture," "Green Wood Spell," "Wind Spell."
The five books slowly flipped open. For Lu Sheng, these extraction methods were extremely simple. Even a regular disciple who just entered the sect could easily extract these five basic True Essence in seven or eight days.
After reading through the books, Lu Sheng flicked his finger again.
The five balls of Yang Essence floating above the five books started to change. After a few breaths, they turned into five different forms of True Essence.
Semi-transparent "Sword Essence," crimson "Earth Fire Qi," white "Dao Qi," green "Wood Essence," and invisible "Qi Essence."
"Let's begin …" Lu Sheng slowly closed his eyes. "Deep Blue."
A light blue frame suddenly appeared in front of him. At the same time, his Eight-Headed Mental Yin Flame also appeared.
Lu Sheng's senses, however, stopped at the thirty thousand units of Mental Energy in his body. His goal this time was to get rid of the hidden danger in his body, then … try to derive Yin Flame to the highest level possible!
