At the same time.

Inside the Shenbing Peak courtyard.

"What Body Refining Martial Skill did you teach Li Mo?"

Han He casually inquired about the military situation.

Even if he believed Murong Xiao could never lose, knowing yourself and your enemy ensures victory in every battle.

However, Shang Wu's next sentence almost made Han He spit out all his tea:

"Body Refining Martial Skill? I didn't teach him any."

"Didn't teach him?!"

"He only opened his meridians yesterday. Where would he find the time to learn Body Refining techniques?"

Shang Wu propped her chin on her hand and yawned idly.

Han He's old face twitched.

You don't even know what Cultivation Technique your Disciple is practicing, yet you dare to let him go to Shenfeng Cave?

He thought Shang Wu had prepared some trump card to win their bet.

And Li Mo.

Could it be that he just grabbed some low-grade Martial Skill like Iron Cloth and foolishly started practicing it?

Just then.

"Master! Master!"

"This is bad!"

Murong Xiao ran into the courtyard quickly, his back soaked with sweat.

Not from exhaustion, but from urgency.

"Aren't you practicing, what's wrong?"

Han He looked at his Disciple and frowned.

He had always felt ✪ Nоvеlіgһt ✪ (Official version) that his Disciple had a calm mind, which was why he confidently allowed him to descend to the second layer of Shenfeng Cave.

Why is he so flustered now?

Shenfeng Cave is right under his nose; what major incident could possibly happen?

"Brother Li has entered the third layer of Shenfeng Cave!"

"Master, please go save him quickly!"

Murong Xiao said hurriedly.

This anxious look.

If someone didn't know the truth, they would think his own father had fallen into a river.

"Brother Li? Which Brother Li?"

Han He didn't react immediately.

"It's Elder Shang Wu's True Disciple, Li Mo!"

Han He: "?"

Shang Wu: "Ah?"

Li Mo went to the third layer?

The third layer is where famous artifacts are stored.

Neither the Killing Intent of the former weapon Masters nor the inherent sharp Qi of Shenfeng Cave can be endured by someone in the Qi Blood Realm.

The blacksmiths in the courtyard couldn't help but gasp.

They dealt with weapons all year round, and many of them didn't dare to stay on the third layer for long.

Someone in the Qi Blood Realm going down there would surely die.

"That's not right."

"How did he get down there?"

Han He immediately stood up, filled with doubt.

To reach the third layer, one must pass through the second layer.

A Martial Artist novice, who just entered the Qi Blood Realm and has no Body Refining experience, shouldn't even be able to reach the second layer!

But looking at Murong Xiao's expression, he clearly wasn't faking it.

"Disciple doesn't know..."

Murong Xiao shook his head.

"Perhaps he possesses a rare treasure, allowing him to block the sharp Qi."

Han He pondered for a moment, considering this possibility.

"He should be fine, right?"

Shang Wu's drunkenness instantly cleared. She uncertainly pulled out a concentric bell from her embrace.

The bell hadn't rung.

Han He said in a deep voice:

"On the third layer, your Disciple probably lost consciousness the moment he descended, due to the Killing Intent!"

"With a rare treasure on him, he might be fine for a short time..."

No sooner had he spoken.

A red blur, like a meteor, quickly shot out.

Where she had been standing, only a large crater remained on the ground.

"Hey, what just whizzed past?"

The Inner Sect Executive at the entrance, who was doing registrations, rubbed his eyes.

"And who are you? Register!"

"Look closely at who this old man is!"

"Oh... it's you..."

Han He followed her in, carrying something.

If a True Disciple died in the cave, even as an Elder, he would be held responsible.

"Shang Wu, don't collapse my Shenfeng Cave!"

He shouted from behind.

This was understandable; once, a Disciple who had just entered the Inner Breath Realm mistakenly entered the third layer of Shenfeng Cave and was affected mentally.

The speed of the Inner Scenery was faster than light.

Truly, lightning fast.

Shang Wu had no intention of concealing her aura; the scorching Qi waves even overshadowed the sharp Qi of the weapons.

Thus, many Martial Artists on the first and second layers of Shenfeng Cave shivered in fear.

In a short while.

Shang Wu entered the third layer.

However, she suddenly stopped.

"Huh?"

Shang Wu's tense expression gradually relaxed and then turned into confusion.

"Shang Wu, my Disciple has truly saved your Disciple's life this time."

"How do you plan to repay this favor...?"

Elder Han He walked down with his hands behind his back.

But before he could finish his sentence, he choked on his words.

This Elder, who had overseen Shenbing Peak for twenty years. freeweɓnøvel.com

Upon seeing the scene before him.

Froze in place on the spot.

He had thought that he had finally made this crazy woman, Shang Wu, owe him a favor, and she wouldn't come to his Shenbing Peak to take advantage anymore.

He never expected.

To see such an unforgettable sight.

The young man sat on a bluestone, surrounded by dozens of weapons, each exuding an aura of docile submission.

Those were, without exception, all famous artifacts.

Every Disciple who entered the Inner Sect was eligible to come to Shenfeng Cave to choose a weapon. If they were lucky, they could gain recognition from a famous artifact.

Of course, most people could only choose weapons from the second and first layers in the end.

To gain recognition from even one famous artifact was a great fortune for ordinary Disciples.

One should know that even the Elders of various peaks mostly used famous artifacts as their weapons.

To gain recognition from dozens of famous artifacts at once?

Han He would rather believe that he, a Great Master of the Inner Scenery, was old and had poor eyesight.

Gulp—

Han He swallowed.

"I knew it, this kid isn't brainless."

"He's practicing quite well."

Shang Wu snorted, resuming her lazy expression.

Han He was speechless.

Who was it just now, who almost hit someone several times?

At this point, he had no time to argue with Shang Wu. He fixed his gaze on the young man surrounded by famous artifacts, examining him repeatedly.

Even though he had seen many Great Winds and waves, he couldn't help but doubt his life now.

"This kid is really practicing."

"And, he attracted dozens of famous artifacts; the sharp Killing Intent of weapons in this area almost centered around him."

"Even a Guan Shen Realm expert would have to weigh the risks."

"Yet, he's completely unharmed..."

Han He himself was a great craftsman and extremely sensitive to weapons.

But the more he understood, the more he realized how difficult this was for someone in the Qi Blood Realm!

"Oh, Han He, old man."

"Don't you have a rule in your Shenfeng Cave?"

"As long as a famous artifact recognizes someone, they can take it away."

Shang Wu wiped the corner of her mouth, her almond eyes gleaming.

She didn't even have a famous artifact.

Of course, that was because she had something better.

But!

These were dozens of them!

If she took her Baby Disciple and wandered around the third layer more, there might be even more.

Han He: "?"

Are you here to stock up?

"You remembered wrong. Each Disciple can only take one weapon from Shenfeng Cave."

"It wasn't like this before."

"Before was before, now is now!"

.....

"The effect of the Qing Xin Pill is wearing off."

Li Mo stopped circulating his Cultivation Technique.

Opening his eyes, he looked towards the distant, stark light.

Just now, when he circulated the Extreme Soldier Slaughtering Body to its limit, he vaguely felt a slight sensation.

That faint sensation was indeed present.

Deeper within Shenfeng Cave, something was calling to him.

"Cough, Li Mo, you can choose one of these famous artifacts to take with you."

Elder Han He's voice came from behind.

Li Mo then came back to his senses and noticed the two people behind him.

Elder Han He looked helpless.

His Master, meanwhile, was drooling at the weapons surrounding him.

Why did they come?

"Thank you, Elder Han He, but I don't plan to choose a weapon for now."

Li Mo cupped his hands.

His father's greatest hobby was collecting all sorts of weapons; he often said he dreamed of owning a famous artifact.

He naturally knew the preciousness of famous artifacts.

But the key was...

He hadn't practiced any weapon Martial Skills yet. He couldn't just casually pick a famous artifact and then go choose the corresponding Martial Skill, could he?

"That's right, Disciple, we're not in a hurry."

Shang Wu said, smiling widely as she turned back, chuckling, "When you can descend to the Fourth Layer of Shenfeng Cave later, we can take our time choosing."

"Elder Han He, don't you agree?"

Han He's eyelids twitched violently.

The Fourth Layer, what was in there, could be considered the very foundation of Shenbing Peak, their lifeblood.

"Let's see if you can even get down there first."

"It's only a matter of time."

Seeing the annoying old man discomfited, Shang Wu proudly patted her Disciple's shoulder.

With that pat, she noticed something amiss.

"Hmm? Xiao Mo, why did you get harder?"

"Guess what I came to Shenfeng Cave for."

Li Mo had a retort he didn't know whether to voice or not.

Well, the Extreme Soldier Slaughtering Body Cultivation Technique was indeed remarkably effective.

At least, now a slap from his Master didn't hurt anymore.

He roughly estimated that his Physical Body strength had increased by at least thirty percent, and this was only on the first day of practice.

It would only get stronger later.

"Once my Physical Body strength improves, I'll go deeper."

"The thing that resonated with me shouldn't be on the Fourth Layer, but even deeper."

Li Mo retracted his gaze.
