Chapter 4 The Demon Blade Desires to Drink Blood
Inside the collective mine shaft.
Xu Yan stared expressionlessly at the row of corpses lying on the straw mat.
Most of them are prisoners, guilty of heinous crimes.
Although some people have harbored ill will towards him these past few days, there is still a small number of people who have no grudge against him.
However, their fate was sealed the moment they decided to fight their way out of this place.
If he were alone, it wouldn't be a big deal to let these people go and leave them to their fate.
But he also has his aunt and uncle's family behind him.
This family has been incredibly kind to him, and he wouldn't leave any hidden dangers for someone to take revenge on his aunt's family in the future.
Therefore, he could only see them off to prevent future troubles.
Fortunately, as long as they did not show any malice towards him, although they died, their fate was not completely taken away, and they still had the opportunity to be reincarnated.
After killing these people, he obtained nine strands of destiny power.
He now has 111 strands of destiny power at his disposal.
"From what we've heard from these people, besides Judge Yang Ta, there seem to be other high-ranking military figures involved in this private mine."
"Perhaps there are one or two more martial artists here at the fifth level of the Divine Power Realm, or even the sixth level of the Aura Realm!"
"In that case, I need to prepare one more contingency plan!"
"Furthermore, since they dare to openly buy and sell slaves and mine illegal mines here, and even have guards with physical body cultivation at the fifth or sixth level, the people behind this illegal mine are probably not ordinary either."
"And if I possess just one magical artifact, I can conquer any vast dynasty!"
As various thoughts flashed through his mind, Xu Yan's consciousness sank into the throne of destiny deep within his sea of consciousness.
He will continue fishing for destiny!
Although he now possesses 111 strands of destiny power, which can condense red bait to fish for red items on top of white items.
But he still chose to fish for white items.
According to his guess, the white item should be a cultivation item of the human-level elixir, magic weapon, or martial arts skill level.
The red items are likely cultivation items at the level of spirit-grade pills, spiritual artifacts, or minor supernatural abilities.
By consuming a hundred strands of destiny power to condense red bait, there is a high possibility of catching a spiritual artifact that is above a magic weapon.
With the magical artifact, he was indeed not afraid of being besieged by experts at the ninth or tenth level of physical strength, or even by an army of a thousand.
But the catch you get is, after all, random.
If he can't catch the magical artifact and his power of destiny is insufficient, he'll probably have to go into hiding.
If he continues fishing for white items, as long as he obtains a magical artifact, he can still protect himself in the current map.
The white bait comes in four grades, requiring 10, 20, 40, and 80 strands of "fate power" respectively.
This time, Xu Yan is preparing to try using the bait formed from 40 strands of destiny's power.
"Come on, club!"
"Fishing for Destiny!"
A wisp of his spirit transformed into Xu Yan, who sat high on the throne of destiny, holding the fishing rod of destiny, and cast it into the long river of destiny.
The moment he reeled in the line, a burst of light flew toward Xu Yan.
This is a green gourd that is half a foot tall.
A gourd containing a thousand Baiyang pills.
[Baiyang Pill, a high-grade human-level pill. Cultivators at the Physical Body Realm and Divine Power Realm can use this pill to satisfy hunger, nourish the body, enhance qi and blood, and increase magical power.]
"It's actually the White Yang Pill! And a full thousand of them!"
Although it wasn't the magical artifact he had been longing for, Xu Yan was still overjoyed.
Although his cultivation level had not reached the tenth level of the Divine Transformation Realm of Physical Body, he did not have photographic memory or the ability to recall whatever he wanted.
The details of the original novel about immortality from his previous life were somewhat vague, but he vaguely remembered that this elixir was extremely precious.
Apart from the disciples of Taiyi Sect, none of the other disciples of the nine immortal sects, whether inner or outer, possessed many of these items.
Compared to the White Yang Pill, the Bigu Pill is utter garbage.
The inner disciples of Taiyi Sect are all cultivators at the first level of the Divine Power Realm, and they take Baiyang Pills daily.
Meanwhile, cultivators at the first level of the Divine Power Realm, such as the Feathered Ascension Sect and the other nine sects of immortality, treasure them dearly, and each one is a true disciple.
However, the pills they consumed were merely mid-grade human-level essence pills.
It's just as bad as Baiyang Dan.
As for the true disciples of the Taiyi Sect, their minimum cultivation level is the second level of the Divine Power True Essence Realm.
Moreover, one must undergo many trials and accumulate enough "merit" before being promoted to a true disciple and receiving the transmission of supernatural powers; it is not simply a matter of reaching a certain level to be promoted.
Without a doubt, in terms of the quality of its disciples, the Taiyi Sect far surpasses the other nine immortal sects.
In terms of numbers, they are equally dominant.
"With this White Sun Pill, I can improve my cultivation again in a short time!"
At this moment, Xu Yan had already forgotten about the Bigu Pill from before.
With the White Yang Pill, who would still eat those garbage fasting pills!
"Keep fishing!"
Consuming another 40 strands of destiny power to condense bait, Xu Yan once again attempted the destiny fishing.
A burst of light flew in again, revealing a sheathed, dark longsword.
Xu Yan's eyes lit up.
A single, swift, demonic blade.
[The Swift Wind Demon Blade, a superior-grade magical artifact. Forged by the Great Asura of the Earth Demon Clan using magical crystals. This blade is exceptionally sharp and possesses the special effect of sudden acceleration!]
bass!
Drawing out half of the precious sword, Xu Yan gazed at the gleaming blade, seven feet long and as tall as a man, and smiled with satisfaction.
"With this knife, I will fear no one, not even the forces behind this black mine!"
Gently stroking the gleaming cloud patterns on the precious sword, feeling the sharp edge approaching him, Xu Yan let out a hearty laugh.
The second time I caught the magic weapon, my goal has been achieved!
The treasures in the world of immortality are divided into five grades: magical artifacts, spiritual artifacts, precious artifacts, Dao artifacts, and immortal artifacts.
Immortal artifacts are extremely rare in the lower realms, so there's no need to elaborate further.
after all.
In the entire Xuanhuang Great World, only the Taiyi Sect, which is the most powerful, possesses a low-grade immortal artifact.
The other four grades of treasures, similar to elixirs, are divided into low-grade, medium-grade, high-grade, and top-grade.
Among them, magical implements are objects infused with magical power.
Anyone who is a master in the realm of supernatural powers can refine it.
Even a low-grade magical artifact is far superior to ordinary divine weapons.
After all, magical artifacts are treasures imbued with magical power, transcending the level of ordinary weapons.
The Gale Demon Blade is renowned among high-grade magical artifacts.
Most of the outer disciples of the nine immortal sects, such as the Feathered Ascension Sect, do not possess such magical artifacts.
As for the Taiyi Sect, they are incredibly wealthy. Their outer disciples not only possess high-grade magic weapons, but also spiritual weapons.
The number one sect in the Xuanhuang Great World is not just a title to be taken lightly.
With 31 strands of destiny's power remaining, Xu Yan paused his fishing.
The moment his mind returned to its normal state, the unsheathed Gale Demon Blade appeared in his hand.
Treasures need to be refined before they can be used to one's satisfaction.
The methods of sacrificial alchemy are divided into blood sacrifice techniques and magic sacrifice techniques.
The art of ritual sacrifice is undoubtedly more sophisticated, but it requires magical power to perform.
For cultivators at the physical body realm, blood sacrifice is the only option.
Any magical artifact or spiritual weapon that has never been refined or consecrated contains pure and untainted magical power.
Whoever spills their own blood can control this power.
This is the art of blood sacrifice, simple and brutal.
However, if one encounters a cultivator at the Divine Power Realm, such a crudely made, blood-sacrificed treasure can easily be taken away.
Xu Yan lightly touched the blade with his fingers and separated them. The blade trembled, and a few drops of blood disappeared into the Gale Demon Blade.
The next instant, gripping the Gale Demon Blade, a feeling of blood connection and perfect control surged into his heart.
"Such a precious sword, tonight it will be unsheathed with blood, how exhilarating!"
Xu Yan's eyes lit up as he wielded the longsword, quickly getting used to it.
