Free Web Novel“Was that really a monster just now?”
Li Mo thought about it again and felt something was off.
Shenfeng Cave is within Qingyuan Sect, and the entrance is guarded by an Inner Sect Executive.
How could a monster get in?
Perhaps it was a Senior Brother who was just a bit ugly......
Li Mo no longer dwelled on the matter.
Step——
His footsteps had already landed on the Fourth Layer’s ground.
The sharp Killing Intent that assailed him, even with his Body Refining showing initial results, made him instantly feel an almost crushing pressure.
His Physical Body, comparable to a Peak Mortal Weapon, even felt a slight stinging pain.
“The mere overflowing Qi is this terrifying.”
“It’s more than ten times stronger than the Third Layer.”
Li Mo took a light breath, and instantly, even his internal organs and Meridians felt a slight numbness.
Fortunately, he had refined his internal organs and Meridians together; otherwise, he probably wouldn't be able to hold on right now.
“What kind of weapons are nurtured on this layer?”
Li Mo looked up.
He saw that in the vast Fourth Layer, half was condensed with Heavenly Frost, and half was so scorching that it twisted the air.
One must know, this was inside a mountain cave.
This scene was simply too unbelievable.
The remaining weapons were also much fewer.
In total, there were only nine stone platforms, and on each platform, a weapon was inserted.
On the first one, there was a long sword that was entirely crimson and crystalline.
Li Mo walked closer and found that there were also inscriptions in front of the stone platform:
“The first Shenbing Peak Master, Zhu Zizhong, was inspired by the sight of two suns in the sky and forged this sword in imitation of ‘Burning Sky’ sword, ranked fifth on the Nine Provinces God Weapon List. It became a Mystic Weapon and was named Chixiao.”
This was the first line of text on the stone platform.
Mystic Weapon!
Weapons were divided into Mortal Weapon, Sharp Weapon, Keen Weapon, and Famous Weapon.
Above Famous Weapon were the Five-Stage Mystic Weapons.
A Mystic Weapon!
As for beyond Mystic Weapon?
Li Mo didn’t know; he hadn’t even heard of it.
But according to the inscription on the stone platform, if this Mystic Weapon was merely a replica, then its prototype, the Burning Sky sword, must be even more formidable.
“Nine Provinces God Weapon List......”
“The first Shenbing Peak Master.”
Li Mo clicked his tongue in his heart.
As far as he knew, currently at Shenbing Peak, it took a very long time to produce even a Famous Weapon.
In the past, could they actually forge Mystic Weapons?
Doesn’t that mean that when this sword was forged, the Great Yu Dynasty had just unified the world not long ago?
There was more text below, so Li Mo continued to read.
【Qingyuan Sect’s Fourth Qunyu Peak Master—Qin Xiaomeng, takes the sword today!】
【Qingyuan Sect’s Sixth Qunyu Peak Master—Luo Rulong, respectfully requests the Chixiao Sword!】
【Qingyuan Sect’s Thirteenth Luoxia Peak Master—Yue Hong, with his Blazing Sun Sword Art reaching Transcendent, requests the Chixiao Sword!】
.....
The further along it went, the longer the time interval between the Peak Masters who came to retrieve the sword.
Li Mo couldn't help but feel his thoughts surge.
This indicated that fewer and fewer people in Qingyuan Sect were qualified to wield this Mystic Weapon.
And also.....
This sword seemed to have been lost for a period of time.
【Qingyuan Sect’s Thirty-third Qunyu Peak Master—Shang Wu, killed a Heaven-Rank assassin from Rain Listening Pavilion and recovered the Chixiao Sword.】
Li Mo scanned the nine stone platforms.
The times recorded clearly had a chronological order, but the content was all similar to the first one.
Three of them were empty, either lost or in the hands of a certain high-ranking Sect official.
He roughly understood.
What was placed here were all Mystic Weapons forged by the successive Shenbing Peak.
As long as one could gain the Mystic Weapon’s recognition, they could become its master.
When they were no longer able to control the Mystic Weapon, they had to return it.
“How can I become a weapon master?”
Xiao Li said it was false not to covet it.
A Mystic Weapon!
He had always dreamed of having a handsome long sword.
On this stone platform, there were only two swords in total.
One was named Heavenly Frost, and the other was this Chixiao.
Hum——
Suddenly, the sound of a sword hummed.
It seemed to have sensed Li Mo approaching.
The Chixiao Sword, inserted into the stone platform, vibrated incessantly.
The next second.
Li Mo’s vision blurred.
Not far away, a swordsman stood, carrying a sword on his back.
The swordsman’s face was unclear, and he wore the simplest short shirt, yet a sharp aura emanated from him.
The other party did not speak, but Li Mo seemed to understand his meaning.
“Please draw your sword.”
Draw my sword?
Li Mo took out an Azure Steel Sword from his System space, which he had received as a reward.
This was his first time using sword arts in actual combat, and he felt a little excited.
My newly Minor Achievement superior sword art, would I be afraid of you?
......
Ten minutes later.
Li Mo subconsciously clutched his chest and abruptly opened his eyes.
Just now, in a daze, he felt as if a sword had pierced his chest. Although he wasn't truly injured, he still had a burning phantom pain.
His Minor Achievement sword art couldn’t even withstand five of the opponent’s moves.
The Chixiao Sword stopped humming and fell silent again.
“It seems that one must cultivate a superior Martial Skill to Transcendent before becoming a weapon master.”
Li Mo recovered his senses, looking at the words left on the stone platform.
After a moment of hesitation, he shook his head and sat on the ground, refining his Physical Body.
The further one progressed in Martial Skill, the more the difficulty increased exponentially.
Seventy-six years of Martial Arts Comprehension were not enough to push Fire Crane Thousand Feathers to Transcendent.
If he accumulated a hundred years, he could give it a try.
Thinking of this, he turned his gaze to the stone wall not far away.
“The first day I entered Shenfeng Cave, I felt something calling to me.”
“But there’s clearly no path ahead.”
“Could it be that I need to break this stone wall?”
......
At the entrance of Shenfeng Cave.
Everyone fell silent.
Because Yin Huacheng, who had been so high and mighty before, was now walking out of the cave entrance in a rather disheveled state.
His eyes were filled with sullen anger, his cloud-patterned robes were torn into rags, and his body was covered in bloodstains.
His injuries weren’t severe; after all, those Famous Weapons were uncontrolled and only activated on their own. With his physique, it was at most some superficial wounds.
But what he couldn’t understand was that all the Famous Weapons were extremely resistant to him, yet they flocked to a newly initiated Disciple.
It was no less infuriating than a goddess he had pursued for years turning around and throwing herself into the arms of a stranger she had only known for a few days.
It made him furious!
“It’s that I’m not strong enough yet.”
Yin Huacheng clenched his fists and walked to the back mountain of Shenbing Peak.
From afar, he could see someone waiting there.
That person was tall and burly, it was Fu Tu.
“What’s wrong with you?”
Fu Tu saw his disheveled appearance and raised an eyebrow.
“Where’s the new container I asked for?”
Yin Huacheng stood with his hands behind his back, not answering his question.
“His name is Wang Hu, with tiger arms and a leopard waist. The beast seed has already been fed to him.”
Fu Tu’s lips curled into a sneer: “He even thanked me.”
“Good.”
Yin Huacheng nodded, his eyes flickering.
Fu Tu knew he was someone who couldn’t stand to lose even a little, so he added:
“Haste makes waste. You should still follow the old rules and find someone to act on during the Sect trial.”
“I have my own judgment.”
Yin Huacheng was a bit impatient.
A moment later, he spoke again:
“Recently, there should be a batch of Outer Sect Disciples returning to their hometowns after leaving the Sect.”
“You won’t even let them go?”
Fu Tu carefully observed the other party’s expression.
Yin Huacheng snorted coldly: “Having received benefits from Qingyuan Sect, how could it ★ 𝐍𝐨𝐯𝐞𝐥𝐢𝐠𝐡𝐭 ★ be so easy to return home in glory? It’s their good fortune that those Trash can still provide some residual heat for me.”
Hundred Beast Blood Refinement, no wonder it’s a forbidden art.
Practicing it too much makes one’s mind go awry.
Fu Tu sneered inwardly, but on his face, he feigned hesitation.
“Don’t forget who vouched for you to enter Qingyuan Sect.”
Yin Huacheng’s tone carried a hint of threat.
Fu Tu hadn’t intended to refuse anyway, so after showing a slight reluctance, he nodded:
“Alright, I’ll help you think of a way.”
Fu Tu was about to leave, but before he had taken two steps.
Yin Huacheng’s questioning voice came from behind him:
“What’s the background of that new true Disciple named Li?”
“That’s the sole heir of Qunyu Peak.”
Fu Tu narrowed his eyes, a half-smile on his face: “You’d best not covet him. If you provoke Shang Wu, Elder Yin won’t be able to protect you either.”
“Qunyu Peak...... Li Mo.” freewёbn૦νeɭ.com
Yin Huacheng muttered to himself, seemingly wanting to engrave this name in his heart.
Shenfeng Cave’s Fourth Layer!
Only the Elders of the various Peaks, or those in the Guan Shen Realm who had reached Major Achievement in horizontal cultivation, could possibly enter and face the Mystic Weapons directly.
That kid must have a rare treasure on him!
Yes, it must be because of a rare treasure.
The anger in Yin Huacheng’s heart dissipated, replaced by intense fervor.
