The first taboo in the world

Chapter 437 Seeking Skin from a Tiger

Outside the ancient city, above the official road, the rising sun stretched the figures of Xu Zifan and the Ghost King into long distances. The breeze blew. Xu Zifan's words were calm and unceremonious. He did not mean to be polite at all because of his identity as the Ghost King.

In this regard, the Ghost King was not angry, but instead smiled.

Although he is the leader of the Ghost King Sect, the master Pufan in front of him is unfathomable in his ways and has profound qi. He has only seen it in his life and cannot see through it at all. Moreover, it was he who ordered the Taoist Wild Dog to come to trouble this person that day. As a result, he was casually destroyed by this person. All this shows that the ordinary-looking Master Pufan in front of him is definitely not simple, and he must be treated with caution.

"Master, please speak quickly. I won't be pretentious anymore. Legend has it that the master has countless magic weapons and sacred scriptures. I want to change some. Here are the herbs that the master needs, as well as my holy sect's skills. I don't know where to trade them?"

The Ghost King spoke. He saw that Xu Zifan was dressed in black and there was obviously no place to store anything on his body, so he couldn't help but ask.

When Xu Zifan heard this, he took a deep look at the Ghost King, and then held his hand empty, and a black jade magic bowl appeared in his hand as the divine light shone.

Immediately afterwards, with the false guidance of his finger, the mouth of the black jade magic bowl shone with magic light. The next moment, countless objects flew out from the mouth of the black jade magic bowl with dots of black light, and then grew rapidly, and the entire object flew out from the mouth of the black jade magic bowl. They all landed neatly on the ground in front of them. Looking closely, they were pieces of magical weapons shining with colorful divine light and volumes of secret scriptures of techniques.

In the process, the Ghost King retreated sharply. He originally thought that Xu Zifan suddenly used the magic weapon to attack him, but then he saw the scene in front of him, and his face became extremely embarrassed for a moment.

But after being embarrassed, his face was filled with shock. What did he see?

"Is this the Mustard Seed Sumeru Technique?"

The Ghost King exclaimed, his voice trembling a little. These methods in myths and legends made him breathe a little faster. Even though he was deeply scheming, his expression changed drastically when he suddenly saw such methods.

Xu Zifan seemed not to notice the Ghost King's reaction at this moment. His face was calm and he spoke again, "What are the exchanges?"

After hearing the words, the Ghost King calmed down and turned his eyes to the various magic weapons neatly placed on the ground. He saw that there was no ordinary thing among them. They were basically the best magic weapons. Some of them were even in the world. A magic weapon that has been lost for hundreds of years.

"This is? The Five Mountains Divine Halberd?"

Suddenly, the Ghost King exclaimed. Among the countless magic weapons in front of him, there was actually the Nine Heavens Divine Weapon. This divine halberd was a magical weapon that had been lost for hundreds of years in their holy religion. He never expected to see its true appearance here today.

"Also...is this the God's Sky-Observing Cable?"

At this moment, the Ghost King once again saw a Nine Heavens Divine Weapon. He was well-informed, and his breathing could not help but become rapid again.

The Nine Heavens Divine Weapon is a true divine weapon and can be used as a treasure to suppress the sect. Apart from some ancient divine objects, the Nine Heavens Divine Weapon is the most powerful magic weapon in this world.

Although the Ghost King himself has magic weapons of the Nine Heavens Divine Weapon level, and even possesses the ancient divine object Fulong Cauldron that is even more mysterious than the Nine Heavens Divine Weapons, he still can't help but feel confused when he sees so many Nine Heavens Divine Weapons appearing in one person. Somewhat gaffe.

"Also...is this the Phoenix Piano?"

The Ghost King was shocked once again when he saw a red guqin with a body that looked like a phoenix spreading its wings.

Immediately afterwards, he discovered three more nine-day magic weapons in succession. At this time, the Ghost King was a little numb looking at so many nine-day magic weapons in front of him.

Originally, he didn't believe the rumors that Master Pufan looted the Tianyin Temple's treasure trove, because Tianyin Temple has been inherited for thousands of years and there are countless masters in the temple. No one can do such a crazy thing, but at this moment, He finally realized that the rumors were true.

This Master Pufan really did such things. Only Tianyin Temple, accumulated from generation to generation for thousands of years, could have so many Nine Heavens Divine Weapons in hand.

Thinking of this, the Ghost King's eyes suddenly became a little horrified. The humble and ordinary-looking Master Pufan in front of him actually fought against the entire Tianyin Temple on his own?

This is crazy!

It simply cannot be measured by common sense. How can a person be so powerful?

Not to mention him, even if he gathered all the strength of the Ghost King Sect, he would definitely not be able to do it.

Then, the Ghost King's eyes narrowed, as if he suddenly thought of something, and he instantly turned his gaze to the volumes of scriptures and books on the side.

If it is true, there must be the world-famous Brahma Prajna True Dharma here!

If he can obtain this true method inherited from Tianyin Temple, and then use it to corroborate it with the second volume of the Heavenly Book that he has practiced, then his Taoism will definitely be one step closer, and even the power of the entire Ghost King Sect will be enhanced by this. One step closer.

Thinking of this, the Ghost King's eyes showed a trace of madness.

We must obtain the true Dharma of Brahma Prajna!

Soon, the Ghost King found an ancient book among countless classics, which contained six words: The True Dharma of Brahma Prajna.

At this moment, the Ghost King's heart was beating fast. Sure enough, there was the true method in this legendary volume.

However, at this moment, Xu Zifan spoke with a calm voice and said: "This volume of the true Dharma of Brahma Prajna cannot be traded. I promised others and I don't want to break my promise!"

Xu Zifan said it lightly, but this sentence made the Ghost King's heart suddenly freeze, and a strong look of disappointment flashed in his eyes.

"However, I still have a secret volume here, which is the fourth volume of the Heavenly Book. I can trade it with you!"

Xu Zifan spoke again, but this time the Ghost King's eyes, which were already full of disappointment, suddenly became brighter.

It turned out to be a heavenly book!

He himself practices the Heavenly Book, and naturally the Heavenly Book is the most suitable for him. If he is asked to choose between the Heavenly Book and the true method of Brahma Prajna, he will never hesitate and will undoubtedly choose the Heavenly Book.

"Master, do you really have the fourth volume of the Heavenly Book?"

The Ghost King was staring at Xu Zifan, a little unsure, and asked for confirmation again.

"Of course, I can teach it to you now!"

Xu Zifan spoke and looked at the Ghost King in front of him with an indifferent expression, as if passing a book from heaven was not a big deal to him at all.

When the Ghost King heard this, he couldn't help but show joy on his face, but he did not let Xu Zifan teach him the fourth volume of the Heavenly Book at this moment. Instead, he once again cupped his fists and saluted Xu Zifan, and said: "Master, the fourth volume of the Heavenly Book and these I want all the magical weapons and magic weapons, please give me a price!"

When Xu Zifan saw this, he couldn't help but secretly praise him. The ghost king in front of him was really a very special person. He could pick up and put it down. He was not planning to rob, but really wanted to trade with him.

Of course, Xu Zifan fully agrees with this. As the leader of the Ghost King Sect, the Ghost King can definitely eat the inventory in his hands.

And, besides that, he didn't covet the second volume of the Heavenly Book of Kung Fu he had cultivated.

In the past, the world was so vast that it would be extremely difficult to find a Ghost King. He did not have time to specifically look for the Ghost King. But now that the Ghost King himself appeared beside him, how could he miss it?

In fact, after confirming the identity of the Ghost King, he had his own idea, and he would definitely switch to the second volume of the Heavenly Book from him. Even if he had to grab it, he would do it.

Moreover, he has no psychological burden for robbing the Ghost King. The hands of such demon sect masters are stained with the blood of countless innocent people. Each of these senior demon leaders of the demon sect, one by one, will be convicted of the crime of neglecting human life. There was absolutely no wrongdoing to them.

Of course, if a peaceful transaction can be made today, he will not take action, because he has already said that he is willing to deal with both good and evil, no matter who trades with him.

However, if the Ghost King does not agree to trade with him, then it is not his fault. There is no trading relationship between the two, so even if he robbed the other party, at most it will be said to be a gangster in the world of cultivation.

He didn't care about the reputation of being a gangster. A lot of people in the devil's path had died under his hands in recent days, and he didn't care about the ghost king.

"I will use these magic weapons in exchange for medicinal herbs, and the fourth volume of the Heavenly Book will be exchanged for your second volume of the Heavenly Book!"

Xu Zifan spoke, looking at the Ghost King with a pair of eyes that were so calm and profound that even the Ghost King couldn't understand his true thoughts.

When the Ghost King heard this, he felt a little hesitant at the moment. The second volume of the Heavenly Book was of great importance. The Ghost King Sect's rise in just over three hundred years was all due to the miraculous power of this volume of the Heavenly Book.

Although the man in front of him wanted to exchange the fourth volume of the Heavenly Book for the second volume of his Ghost King Sect's Heavenly Book, which was not considered an advantage, but he was still a little reluctant to part with the sudden incident.

And while hesitating, he was even more confused. How did Master Pufan know that he was carrying the second volume of the Book of Heaven?

Today this person can recognize him at a glance. It can also be said that he may have accidentally leaked his identity somewhere in the past and was known to many people. But regarding the second volume of the Heavenly Book, let alone outsiders, even among the Ghost King Sect. Among them, not many people know about it.

At this moment, the Ghost King looked at Master Pufan in front of him, and suddenly felt that his whole body seemed to be surrounded by mist, hazy and mysterious, and he could not see through this person at all.

To change or not to change?

Things are fishy and it’s hard to make a choice!

"Before the transaction, I have something unknown. How did you know that I am carrying the second volume of the Book of Heaven?"

In the end, the Ghost King couldn't hold it back, looked at Xu Zifan with a smile, and asked the doubts in his heart.

When Xu Zifan heard this, his expression remained calm, but his heart moved. Then he spoke, "I have a special method that can sense the breath of the Book of Heaven!"

Having said this, Xu Zifan paused for a moment, then took a deep look at the Ghost King and said: "In fact, not only the second volume of the Heavenly Book, I also vaguely sensed the location of several other Heavenly Books!"

As soon as these words came out, the Ghost King's eyes suddenly shone brightly, and his heart was shocked and excited, with a deep sense of greed.

You must know that the Heavenly Book is the foundation of the Holy Religion. According to legend, it is the source of all the methods of the Holy Religion. Eight hundred years ago, the black-hearted old man was able to unify the Holy Religion with the help of the first volume of the Heavenly Book. Now, his Ghost King Sect also has the second volume of the Heavenly Book because of its possession. , could rise in just three to four hundred years, and together with the established demon sects Wandu Sect, Changshengtang, and Hehuan Sect were known as the four sects of the Demon Sect, the importance of the Heavenly Book is naturally self-evident.

Now, some people say that they can sense the breath of the Heavenly Book. Doesn't that mean that this person can collect all the Heavenly Books in time?

At this moment, the Ghost King's heart was shaken, and at the same time, there was a faint flash of intense murderous intent deep in his eyes.

However, his face became gentler, with a smile on his face, and he said: "Master Pufan is indeed an extraordinary person. He actually possesses such a secret technique. I admire him!"

At this point, he changed his words and continued: "The master is a strange person in this world. I have a shameless request for something. I wonder if the master is willing to listen to what I have to say."

When Xu Zifan heard this, he didn't say much, but looked at the Ghost King. After a long time, he nodded slightly, indicating for him to speak.

Seeing this, the Ghost King was overjoyed. He first clasped his fists and saluted, and bowed deeply to Xu Zifan. Then he spoke again and said: "Master, as a virtuous and eminent monk, must also know that the Book of Heaven is the method of my holy sect. I am honored to do this." The leader of the Ghost King Sect naturally wants to collect them all, so that even if he gets to the Nine Nether Palace in the future, he can still face the ancestors. I have a heartless request here. Can the master pass on the technique of sensing the heavenly book to me? I, the Ghost King Sect, will be extremely grateful!"

After the Ghost King finished speaking, he bent down and saluted Xu Zifan again, and then looked at Xu Zifan, his eyes full of longing.

When Xu Zifan heard this, he also looked at the Ghost King and said: "According to your words, I am Master Pufan and I am the righteous path. Why should I help you, the master of the demonic path?"

After hearing what Xu Zifan said, the Ghost King smiled slightly and said: "The master is a strange person in the world. Naturally, he is different from other so-called righteous people. Otherwise, he would not have turned back to Tianyin Temple, and he said that everyone in the world, no matter the good or evil, can trade with the master. Magic weapon!"

Hearing what the Ghost King said, Xu Zifan nodded slightly, but his eyes became more profound, and then he spoke quietly and said: "I can't teach you the magic, but if I get the other heavenly books, I can give you a copy, but I am here to be fair. Deal, I’ll give you the Book of Heaven, what can you give me?”

Having said this, Xu Zifan looked at the Ghost King, waiting for his response.

When the Ghost King began to hear that Xu Zifan could not teach his magic, his heart suddenly sank, and he was extremely disappointed. In the deepest part of his heart, murderous intent surged. However, after hearing what Xu Zifan said next, the hope of collecting the Heavenly Book rose again in his heart. .

"I think what the master wants is nothing more than medicinal herbs and magical powers. As long as the master allows me to collect all the heavenly books, everyone in the Ghost King Sect is willing to go through fire and water for what the master wants, no matter what!" The ghost king said, as long as they can trade. , I'm afraid that the person in front of me is just like other people on the right path, and that would be troublesome.

"Okay, I hope you do what you say!"

Xu Zifan spoke with an extremely calm expression, but at this moment, he smiled coldly in his heart. Making this deal with the Ghost King was really seeking the skin of a tiger, but just now, he suddenly thought of this method to maximize his own interests.

It is still a bit slow to obtain medicinal herbs and some strange magical powers by trading alone. If the Ghost King Sect can be involved and help him search for medicinal herbs and world practice methods, the speed will definitely be greatly improved.

As for seeking skin from a tiger, Xu Zifan is confident that there will be no problem. With his current strength, he can be a dragon or a tiger!

If the Ghost King dared to do something wrong to him, he would not mind destroying the entire Ghost King Sect.

After the two discussed it, Xu Zifan returned to the city behind him again at the invitation of the Ghost King, because the Ghost King wanted to exchange for the countless magic weapons in Xu Zifan's hands and had to prepare for several days to bring the herbs he needed.

There was no way around it. After all, there was no treasure in this world. Xu Zifan could understand this, and then he agreed. It just so happened that he could exchange the second volume of the Book of Heaven with the Ghost King in the past few days.
