Chapter 12: Gold Belt for Murder and Arson
Chapter 12: Gold Belt for Murder and Arson
The moment the thunderbolts exploded, the Flying Sword Talisman was activated by He Qingge.
It was like a real magic weapon flying sword, which was quite powerful. Moreover, this was a high-grade offensive talisman. Even this rude and unreasonable man could not withstand it.
He Qingge still underestimated the power of his Berating ability. The superb level was simply too unbelievable.
The steel needles and the thunderbolts had directly broken the burly man's protective talisman. Then, the Flying Sword Talisman directly cut off the burly man's head.
Not to mention someone in the Qi Refinement Realm, even if they were in the Foundation Establishment Realm, as long as the head was cut off, there was no hope of survival.
However, the soul of someone in the Foundation Establishment Realm had a chance of turning into a malicious ghost.
Almost all of the attacks were completed in an instant. He Qingge did not even know the name of the person who followed him, and he was not interested in keeping him alive for interrogation. After all, the other party's level was indeed higher than his. If he was not careful, he might be in trouble.
Finally, there was the delightful corpse search segment.
He Qingge did not miss any part of the burly man's body.
He obtained a storage bag, a flying sword, a few bottles of Qi pellets, hundreds of spirit coins, dozens of spirit stones, a rusty copper plate, and finally, a diary. Of course, he did not forget the golden gloves on the burly man's hands.
He Qingge did not directly touch the corpse to prevent the other party from using poison.
After everything was packed up, He Qingge set fire to cremate him. He Qingge quickly put on a Divine Strider Talisman on his horse.
...
The next morning after He Qingge left the sect...
"What do you mean He Qingge has already left the sect and the spirit beast that was sent to monitor him has disappeared?"
"The people who were monitoring him with the spirit beast didn't find any traces of a battle. I knew he must have a big secret!"
After Zhang Jianchi heard Zhang Lingmu's report, not only did he not get angry, he even laughed out loud.
He Qingge had already received the mission details.
This was not the first time he had bullied the weak. Practice made perfect.
Many of them had all kinds of secrets, and he had also benefited a lot from them.
"In that case, I'll go personally," Zhang Jianchi said with a smile.
"Second Young Master, do you want me to go with you?" Zhang Lingmu asked.
"Forget about that. I'll bring Zhang Yi and Zhang Er with me." Zhang Jianchi merely glanced at him.
Zhang Yi and Zhang Er were servants that the Zhang family had nurtured since they were young. Their strength was quite good, and they had also reached the late stage of the Qi Refinement Realm. However, they were indeed a little old.
The maximum lifespan of a Qi Refinement Realm cultivator was 180 years.
Zhang Yi and Zhang Er had already lived for more than 60 years. They did not have many years left to live.
The maximum lifespan was 180 years, but not many people could live to the full limit.
It was precisely because they had lived for a long time that their spells were quite proficient and their attacks were quite powerful.
However, as they aged, their overall strength also declined. Their bodies were aging, which was an inevitable process.
Even with the help of the Rank-One Face Preserving Pill, there was still no way to retain their looks forever. The true appearance of their bodies could still be seen, and many wrinkles had already appeared.
He Qingge's horse galloped for a while before they stopped at a small town to rest.
This was an ordinary small town. Basically, it was filled with ordinary people. At most, there were some martial arts experts.
In this world, there were martial arts as well as immortal cultivators. However, the upper limit of martial arts was very low.
They could also be roughly divided into third-rate, second-rate, first-rate, top-notch, master, grandmaster, great-grandmaster, and supreme grandmaster.
Although there were so many levels, it was still not enough.
The master level could roughly correspond to the first three levels of the Qi Refinement Realm, the grandmaster level corresponded to the middle three levels, the great-grandmaster level corresponded to the last three levels, and the supreme grandmaster level corresponded to the perfected Qi Refinement Realm (level ten to level 12).
The supreme grandmaster level was the peak of martial arts. There were no levels above that, and the path ended there.
The correspondence mentioned here was only a rough correspondence of realms. In general, cultivators still had many advantages. Whether it was talismans, magic treasures, or medicinal pills, they were basically all exclusive to cultivators.
The talismans drawn by immortal cultivators could not be used by martial art practitioners. The Qi and blood in their bodies could not activate the talismans.
Just from this point alone, the difference in combat strength could be seen.
However, the cultivation of martial artists was not completely useless. For many body cultivators, the cultivation of martial arts had many benefits. Their bodies were filled with Qi and blood.
He Qingge's Hearing allowed him to monitor the entire city. Many small rumors and all kinds of gossip gathered in his ears.
It was simply a divine weapon for eavesdropping.
In a short period of time, He Qingge already had a general understanding of the entire city. He could basically eliminate the threat to himself.
He pasted a few talismans in the room and began to check his gains.
Looking at the two flying swords in his storage bag, the corners of his mouth curled up slightly.
Although he had mocked the man in black for being poor at first, he was actually not very poor. In fact, he was very rich.
Of course, the comparison here was with the rogue cultivators.
One had to know that even He Qingge could not afford the price of a flying sword.
Moreover, it was a high-grade level one flying sword, so its value was even greater.
It was estimated that it could be sold for thousands of low-grade spirit stones in the black market or in the gathering place of itinerant cultivators.
Moreover, he had obtained two flying swords at once.
It was the equivalent of getting rich overnight, and that was not counting anything else.
No wonder this man had a gold belt for murder and arson. Even someone as cautious as He Qingge was a little convinced.
The harvest he gained in one go was equivalent to many years of saving up in the sect, striving to break through before his lifespan was exhausted.
What did immortal cultivation mean? In fact, it was about time.
Logically speaking, if a person had endless time, even those with weak spiritual root purity could achieve success in cultivation.
This led to the fact that only those with extraordinary talent or those who were not outstanding would choose to cultivate other immortal arts.
Ordinary people would do their best to focus on cultivation and break through before their lifespan ended.
Apart from spirit stones, there were also spirit coins. Spirit stones not be used directly for cultivation.
It was possible to forcefully use spirit stones to cultivate, but the impurities contained in them would cause a certain degree of damage to the body.
Most of them were used for array formations, puppets, and even special magic tools...
Spirit coins were the currency used to purchase processed spirit stones.
One could extract pure spiritual power from the spirit stones and use a special method to forge them into spirit coins.
Basically, only large sects had this kind of method. The Tian Xuan Sect was one of the large sects that could independently develop spirit coins.
