Great Xuanwu Sheng

Chapter 149 Li Huo

 “He family…Tianshimen…Yan Jingqing…”

 Chen Mu pondered in his heart.

In his opinion, if there are various signs pointing to the connection between the He family and the remnants of the Tianzhi Sect, then it is normal for Yan Jingqing's character to take direct action against the He family, and what will happen to the He family in the end depends on them and the Tianzhi Sect. The relationship between the remnants of the sect.

If they are just using each other, then the problem is still within a certain range, but if the He family simply defected to the Tianzhi Sect and completely worked for the Tianzhi Sect, then there is no doubt that they are not far from the destruction of the Sect.

 Judging from Yan Jingqing’s reaction this time.

There is a high probability that the He family is really involved with the remnants of the Heavenly Corpse Sect, but the involvement may not be deep, and they are just mutual use to a certain extent, such as exchanging some resources with the remnants of the Heavenly Corpse Sect, etc.

In the past, this was undoubtedly still a serious crime of confiscating homes and exterminating families, but now the world is in chaos, and even sects like Xueyinlou who practice assassination dare to stand up, so the situation is naturally different. Of course, Chen Mu I think it is more likely that Yan Jingqing wants to use the He family to find out more about the remnants of the Tianzhi Sect.

After all, to Yan Jingqing, the He Family Committee was nothing. It was right under his nose and he couldn't escape. He could destroy it with just a flip of his hand. It didn't matter at all.

However, the remnants of the Tianzhi Sect hidden in Yu County have always been shrouded in mystery, and no results have been found so far.

 “Heavenly Corpse Gate…”

 Chen Mu shook his head.

Since this part was involved, he had no intention of further investigation. After all, this was not something he should take care of at the moment, and there was no need to forcefully guess the intentions of Yan Jingqing and even the Qixuan Sect.

Moreover, this strange situation also gave him a vague feeling that a storm was about to come.

 It’s time to continue to improve your strength.

At least with his current level of strength, he can only beat the inner disciples of the four sects at most, which is not enough to deal with the four true inheritances, let alone the remnants of the Tianzhi Sect who are still in a fog.

 …

 Yu Family Arms Training Hall.

 It is the coldest month of winter, with wind and snow.

The smelter was bare-chested, showing off his strong muscles. He was sweating, carrying an extremely heavy hammer, and was constantly beating a knife blade on the table.

 A precious sword gradually took shape under its tempering.

at last.

He put the tempered knife embryo back into the furnace for calcination. After the blade turned red again, he suddenly put it into the ice water next to the furnace. After repeated tempering several times, a sword was finally forged.

 “It’s done!”

With a smile on his face, the smelter held the completely cut blade in front of him, carefully observed its shape, and sighed: "This sword should be the highest quality sword I have ever forged. Except for those legendary demon knives and spiritual weapons tempered with the spirit of monsters, there are basically not many treasures that can beat it by three points."

Chen Mu stood aside and watched, and saw that this forged sword still only had the blade, it had not been sharpened, and the handle had not been repaired yet, but even so, he could clearly feel that it was different from the essence he had used before. The iron knife is different.

 “Treasure weapon, spiritual weapon.”

Chen Mu showed a look of thought.

 In the various books he read, there were also records about weapons, which recorded that all weapons in the world were divided into three categories: "ordinary weapons", "treasure weapons" and "spiritual weapons".

 The standard sword he used before, as well as the fine iron sword of the Demon Slayer Division, are ordinary soldiers. Even though the quality of the fine iron sword is higher and it is made of hundreds of refined iron, it is still not a precious sword.

 Treasure weapon.

Being given the word 'treasure' means that it is a treasure in itself. The black iron used to forge this sword is not bad, and the output is quite large. After Yu Zutian took over as the deputy chief of the Smelting Department, it was easy for the Yu family to replace it. This trading line has been opened up again, but the liquid silver mine is an extremely rare mineral, and the value of one piece is more than one hundred thousand taels of silver.

Hence, the forged sword is naturally called a treasured sword, as it is made of heavy silver.

 As for the spiritual soldiers…

 Chen Mu has only heard about it so far, but has never seen it.

It is said that only monsters above the eighth level have "spirits", and the artifacts forged with them will possess all kinds of incredible abilities. In the past, the founding emperor of the Daxuan Dynasty once searched the world and killed nine gods and nine gods. level monsters, and refined nine pieces of spiritual weapons. As the divine weapons of the Daxuan Dynasty that protect the country, they can defeat thousands of armies!

The existence of spiritual soldiers is the true heritage of major sects and even the Daxuan Dynasty. After all, people will age, but spiritual soldiers contain demonic power and will be immortal for thousands of years. Even after the decline of the Daxuan Dynasty, there is still no voice in the world that dares to openly rebel. They are all intimidated by its thousands of years of history, and no one is willing to be the first person to confront him head-on.

 Shaked his head.

 Chen Mu quickly gathered his thoughts.

 Things that can be called divine objects such as spiritual weapons are far away from him, so there is no need to think too much about them.

The whole sword has been forged, and the subsequent refinement and sharpening were completed in one go in the hands of the smelter. It didn't take long to create a sword that was in the shape of liquid silver and shone brightly in the sunlight. Then he was completely born.

  Shuashua!

Chen Mu took the sword and waved it twice, feeling that the weight and touch were very moderate.

"very good."

 A smile appeared on his face.

Although there were some twists and turns for this precious sword, things finally developed in the desired direction. It also opened up the channels for the Yu family to obtain black iron, and he could accept the liquid stone with peace of mind.

"If it is forged with liquid silver stone, it is called a liquid silver knife."

 Chen Mu looked at the Liuyin Dao in his hand. He had never been too lazy to name it, and the knives he had used in the past were not worthy of naming. This sword was finally more formal, and naming it after the Liuyin Dao was simple and straightforward.

　　Holding the newly forged flowing silver knife, Chen Mu quickly returned to his underground quiet room.

“Wind and thunder startle.” “Wind and fire burn.”

 “Thunder fire embers.”

 Three moves in a row are unimpeded.

With the last knife, the three artistic conceptions of wind, thunder and fire came together. The entire flowing silver knife crackled, and pieces of red flames wrapped in thunder appeared, and gathered into an extended knife shape in the fierce wind, and fell with a sudden blow.

 “The wrath of heaven.”

Because wind, thunder, and fire are all subordinate to the artistic conception of Qian Tian, ​​the collection of these three phases is also Chen Mu's most powerful sword move today, so this move was also named 'Wrath of Heaven' by him!

　　Boom!

 One blow fell.

The thick piece of pig iron collapsed under the fierce knife wrapped with lightning, and exploded into countless iron stones, which flew out towards the entire front and were densely embedded in the wall.

 “Very good, it’s a precious sword after all.”

Chen Mu inspected the blade of the Liquid Silver Knife. After performing such a blow, the power of the three phases converged. The entire blade was still glowing with the light of Liquid Silver without any damage. It was obvious that it could truly carry his performance.

Although martial arts have been practiced to a high level of artistic conception, flying flowers and picking leaves can hurt people, but that often only bullies some weaklings, such as Yan Wansi, a vulgar martial artist who does not understand artistic conception. Once a duel of artistic conception is involved, then use flowers and branches to control the artistic conception, Naturally, it is not as good as controlling a sword like Liuyin Dao, which can exert greater power.

Huh.

Chen Mu breathed a sigh of relief, looked at the mess on the ground, but was too lazy to clean it up. He turned around and walked to the back. He came to the Yanyu bedside, took off his boots, stepped forward, and put the Liuyin knife on it. Off to the side, pick up the Lihuo Diagram.

With his current strength, and with this flowing silver knife, he won't be too afraid of the five internal organs state like He Wuyou, but after all, the stronger the better, right now, there is still a long way to reach the 'Jade Bone' level for bone forging. The short journey, judging from the progress, will take about two months, and before that, the Lihuo Artistic Realm is enough to reach the second step of cultivation.

 And after that.

Chen Mu considered going to the Demon Slayer Division to study the "Xunfeng Diagram" first.

As the supervisor of the Supervisory Division, he also serves as the Demon-Slaying Division. This position has many available resources. For example, to understand the artistic conception map, you only need to use a small amount of merit in exchange for a lot of time to understand, and not a lot of time. As much as the Deputy Chief and even the White Guard have consumed, with the merits he has accumulated so far, there is no problem in practicing two or three kinds of artistic conceptions to the second step.

In the artistic conception diagram of the Demon Slayer Division, except for the absence of heaven, earth, and earth, the other six aspects are complete.

For today's Chen Mu, the artistic conception of Xunfeng is not only the earliest artistic conception he mastered, but more importantly, it possesses the perceptual characteristic of "Autumn Wind Feeling", which is quite useful to him. Like when he was looking for Yan Wansi before, he could not In a noisy environment, one can tell from a distance whether one is in the Bone Forging Realm or the Tendon Changing Realm through subtle breathing, but if the Xunfeng Artistic Realm can go one step further, then this subtle difference must also be perceived clearly.

“In fact, the artistic conception of Kanshui should also have a means of perception.”

 Chen Mu showed a hint of thoughtfulness.

The mind is as peaceful as water, reflecting all things... The perception of Kanshui's artistic conception is another different method. Naturally, the more things like the ability to perceive, the better. If there are no surprises, after he practices Xun After the wind artistic conception, the next step may be to practice Kan Shui.

But for now, let’s focus on understanding the artistic conception of Lihuo.

 He called up the system interface and took a look.

 【Martial Arts: The Artistic Conception of Lihuo】

 【Experience: 9529 points】

 【Number of deductions possible: 0 times】

 “It will take a few days at most…”

Chen Mu nodded slightly in his heart, and then he calmed down and began to understand it carefully by comparing it with the Lihuo Diagram.

 …

　　A few days passed by in a flash.

Chen Mu quietly sat cross-legged on the Yanyu bed.

Suddenly a wisp of flames rose from the soles of his feet and gradually burned all the way up, igniting the thin clothes around him. Soon his whole body was bathed in the fire. The fire burned all his clothes, but strangely it did not hurt him. and skin.

The fire is getting bigger and bigger, intensifying on the bed of flame jade, and gradually spreading to the picture of Lihuo.

But just when the flames were about to touch the edge of the Lihuo Diagram, Chen Mu's closed eyes opened slightly, and his fingers reached out from the flames. The flames on his fingertips quickly faded, and he aimed at the Lihuo Diagram and kept it away. sent several feet away.

He just sat there cross-legged, his body still bathed in flames, and he could feel the blazing heat so close at hand. But when he lowered his head and looked around, the flames were extremely docile and under his control. Even his hair could not be touched. Not burned.

 “away from the fire.”

 Chen Mu slowly opened his hand.

In an instant, the flames on his body seemed to be drawn, and quickly gathered towards his palm, and finally turned into a red flame, swaying in his palm, and the light emitted illuminated the entire practice room.

 “This is the second step of Lihuo’s artistic conception…”

Chen Mu murmured, and then he closed his palms, and the wisp of fire was instantly extinguished and disappeared.

When he initially mastered Lihuo's artistic conception, although he could also wield the flames, he could not control them. He could only blast them forward. At most, he relied on the Xunfeng artistic conception to restrain and control the form of the flames.

But now, without the assistance of Xunfeng's artistic conception, just relying on his own understanding of the essence of Lihuo between heaven and earth, he has been able to control the power of Lihuo's artistic conception to the point where he can command it like an arm, and the power is much greater than before. One chip.

 Chen Mu clenched his fist.

“Three artistic conceptions of wind, thunder and fire, thunder and fire have taken the second step, and the bone forging realm has also been practiced to perfection, with a body that has been trained... I wonder if my current strength can compete with Mr. Yu Jiujiang.”
