The Devilish Immortal

Chapter 38 The “Complete State” of Magic Treasures

Soon, the ripples flashed on the bare land at the back, and a silver ship broke out. At the head of the ship, Xuan Nyu Fairy who had a calm look was standing side by side with the nervous-looking Shangguan Ying. Standing respectfully behind them were Zhang Ran and Lyu Xinyun.

When the ship drove above Lyu Liang and others, it stopped for a moment. Then, Zhang Ran and Lyu Xinyun jumped down. After that, the ship’s silhouette blurred, and it disappeared into the air.

“Lyu Liang, Aunt Qing said, you shall tell your side of people that it was Aunt Qing who lent a helping hand.” In Lyu Liang’s mind came the voice of Shangguan Ying.

Lyu Liang bowed to the place where the ship disappeared, and he relayed the words immediately to everyone.

Almost at the same time as the ship disappeared, five figures that emitted an abundant aura also landed in front of Lyu Liang and others. The head of the group was the Hunyuan Sword Immortal, and there were four Fairy Immortals behind him. Namely Immortal Fuyuan and Immortal Zhenyuan. Also, there was a chunky middle-aged man, and it seemed he was probably the master of Li Wuyi, Immortal Tianyuan.

The Hunyuan Sword Immortal took a glance around, and finally fell his eyes on the huge deep pit, seemingly waiting for Lyu Liang and others to explain.

Lyu Liang hinted Li Wuyi with a look. The latter received and stepped forward. He said with a bow, “Grand Master and the Ancestor Masters, everything happened because of me...” Then, Li Wuyi told the ancestors everything that he encountered after coming out of the market place, including Lyu Liang and Xu Mubai, who used the Soul-raising Pill and helped him.

Of course, the last shot that turned the tide and made such destruction on the battlefield was from a high-ranked person, which naturally fell on the head of Aunt Qing. The Hunyuan Sword Immortal had already known what was going on, and nodded slightly on hearing. The other four immortals were also convinced. After all, everyone knew the name of Green Dragon Lord, and this level of destruction was already counted as minimal.

In Li Wuyi’s speech, he did not hesitate to praise and appreciate for the help of Lyu Liang and Xu Mubai. The five ancestors, including the Hunyuan Sword Immortal, all expressed their sincere gratitude to Xu Mubai for his timely help.

Among them, when Immortal Tianyuan learned that Xu Mubai’s defensive magic treasure was damaged in the battle, he did not say anything and directly took out a shield magic treasure at the Void Return Level. He erased his Divine Sense and directly presented it to Xu Mubai.

Xu Mubai naturally refused to accept it, but in the end, he could not disobey the seniors and powerful figures who were present, so he took it after expressing his sincerest gratitude.

At the same time, when they heard that Xu Mubai was out to travel around, the Hunyuan Sword Immortal also invited him to go to Sword Character Immortal Palace to live for a while. This time Xu Mubai did not have any resignation. According to him, the opportunity to visit the second largest power of the Wufang Territory was a chance that he had yearned and dreamed for.

Later, everyone returned to the Sword Character Immortal Palace. As for the identity of the people who attacked the Li Wuyi, the Hunyuan Sword Immortal seemed to avoid the explanation intentionally. Lyu Liang and others were smart and did not ask again.

After entering the Immortal Palace, Li Wuyi was taken away by Immortal Tianyuan directly. Before leaving, he messaged Lyu Liang and agreed to gather in the herb garden at the back mountain five days later. At the invitation of Lyu Liang, Xu Mubai was also preparing to stay in the herb garden for several days temporarily.

...

In the main hall of the Sword Character Immortal Palace, in a secret room, the Hunyuan Sword Immortal was respectfully talking to a virtual shadow. Looking at the appearance of the virtual shadow, it was the founding father of Sword Character.

“Master, the above is the situation that Li Wuyi experienced. The final killing of the blue-robed man at the Late-stage of Nascent Soul should be made by Lyu Liang undoubtedly. The destructive power caused by the technique and the scene rallies with the attack of the Devil Thunder.” After Hunyuan Sword Immortal finished, he seemed to be a little hesitant, but continued his words. “The two blue-robed men, according to my speculation, are probably disciples of the Wanxiang Sect of the Canglan Territory. After all, the kind of faceless puppet was very similar to what I had seen there before!”

“Well, Wanxiang Sect was a mysterious sector that has sprung up like a black horse thousands of years ago. Now it has replaced the Yishui Clan and become the first sector in the Canglan Territory. The Wanxiang Sect and my Sword Character Immortal Palace have always been minding our own businesses and never interfere with one another. You were even invited to participate in the promotion ceremony of their chief. This time for the Mysterious Soul Body, they openly attacked my Immortal Palace’s disciple. It seemed that there is something hidden!” The founding father of Sword Character frowned and seemed to be thinking about something.

“And the meaning of Master is?” Hunyuan Sword Immortal looked up at the founding father of Sword Character.

“Since the other party was secretly hidden, and no matter what, my disciples have not been hurt, don’t tear open the faces. After all, the Wanxiang Sect is too mysterious, and no one knows how deep their strength is. If I am not wrong, this attack must have some connection with their core in puppet skills. Inform Tianyuan, send people to pay more attention to Li Wuyi. I guess that Wanxiang Sect will not let go on him so easily!” The founding father of Sword Character pondered for a moment and gave out the final solution.

...

At the same time, somewhere in the deep mountain valley of the Canglan Territory, in a dark hall, a massive figure of thirty-three feet tall was sitting on a large chair. Looking closely, it was a puppet with three-heads and six-arms! On top, there were three completely different heads, and they were respectively a white-browed old man, a charming woman, and a man with a decadent look.

Underneath him, kneeled a masked man in red respectfully, revealing only a pair of dark green eyes. He seemed to be admiringly looking at the massive puppet in front of him.

At this time, the head of the old man in the huge puppet first made a sound, and it seemed to be mixed with deep joy. “According to your words, although the two juniors failed, the information they passed back is still very useful! Finally, there is news about the Mysterious Soul Body! Also, they actually meet the owner of ‘Life-saving Puppets’! It must have been left by the Master!”

“Elder Brother, I am not judging you, but with such an age, how can you still be so energized? I think it is perfect now. Anyway, we are already the first in the Canglan Territory. If it is a matter of returning to the Pangu Origin world, I still have some interest.” The decadent man seemed not to care about anything, and yawned after speaking.

“You two stop arguing. Bi Huo, I remember that there are still twenty years to the day of opening the Land of Origin in the Demon Realm. I believe that by the time, the disciples sent by Sword Character Immortal Palace will definitely have a place for this disciple with the Mysterious Soul Body! At that time, we shall then move accordingly. Big Brother, what the second brother said is a bit reasonable, you have been a bit radical in recent years. But the second brother too, can you be more cheerful or not? Speaking of strength, you should be the first among the three of us!” The enchanting woman’s words were very light, but there was a kind of sultry charm contained in it, making people unconsciously want to listen to her words.

The old man with white eyebrows rolled his eyes and muttered softly, “Whatever, I can’t win you two anyway. Bi Huo, just do it according to Xiaorou. Now go to pick someone, and include the lazy guy named Haotian. It must be done without fail. If you can really get the soul of the Mysterious Soul Body, only then we, the ‘Three-emperor Puppet’, can break the prohibition of the ancient covenant!”

The kneeling man in red kowtowed after hearing the words and then disappeared.

...

At this time, at the back mountain of the Sword Character Immortal Palace, Lyu Liang had placed Xu Mubai in a proper position. He was currently studying the storage bag obtained from the chunky blue-robed man in his own cave residence.

After opening the storage bag and seeing the contents inside, Lyu Liang’s mouth almost grinned to the back of his head. At the same time, he sighed. A cultivator at the Nascent Soul Stage had extremely ample assets!

Inside the storage bag, there were a hundred pieces of upper-grade Primordial Stones and nearly ten thousand pieces of mid-grade Primordial Stones! There were also three magic treasures, two of which were at Nascent Soul Stage. One green squared shield and a long dark blue fork. There was also a small bronze mirror. When Lyu Liang saw it, his eyes glistened. Immediately, he erased the Divine Sense on it and integrated it into his sea of consciousness.

This small bronze mirror, Lyu Liang had seen it on the wall of the Rare Treasure Hall. It was a lower-grade auxiliary magic treasure at immortal standard, the Spirit Detecting Mirror. The effect was very simple. Without the need to stimulate the Divine Sense, one could detect the cultivation level of all the cultivators below the Fairy Immortal stage. The only drawback was that one could only use it three times within twenty-four hours, and then wait for another twenty-four hours to use.

In addition to the Primordial Stones and treasures, there were some medicinal pills in the storage bag as well. However, the pills could only be used after reaching the Nascent Soul Stage. It was not very useful for Lyu Liang currently.

After refining the magic treasures with satisfaction, Xu Mubai happened to come over to visit.

After the two met, Xu Mubai directly pulled Lyu Liang out of the cave residence, and then took out his silver sword. He said to Lyu Liang, “Taoism Peer Lyu, in the previous battle, I saw that you could actually use the domain of the Sword Tao, you are really a born genius! However, I observed that, although the power of your moves is potent, the sword in your hand has yet to reach the ‘complete state’. The sword in my hand, entitled ‘Disorderly Light’, is a magic treasure at Nascent Soul Level, pay attention now!”

When Xu Mubai’s words end, the long sword disappeared in his hand, the next moment, countless silver light fluttered above the top of his head, which exuded a fierce Sword Essence!

Lyu Liang’s mind was alerted. During his fight with the blue-robed fat man, the one that he stimulated could only be regarded as the rudiment of the domain, and it appeared only with the use of Ghost Devil Head and Soul-raising Pill at the same time. If he relied solely on the Ghost Devil Head or Soul-raising Pill, he would only be a bit stronger compared to when he was upgrading. If he was against the sharp Sword Essence of Xu Mubai, the outcome was really unpredictable.

“Complete state? Brother Xu, what is that?” Lyu Liang looked at the sword lights flying in the air, he seemed to realize something, but the confusion was much more.

Upon hearing the words, Xu Mubai immediately kept his sword light. He smiled and patted on Lyu Liang’s shoulder, and applauded. “Haha, as what I expected! You can still play your own Sword Tao to such power without knowing the ‘complete state’. In time, you will definitely become the top kendo powerful figure of the three Realms!”

Then, Xu Mubai asked Lyu Liang to take out the Feiling sword and the blue-light sword. After examining it, he shook his head and sighed, “It is a magic treasure above the Nascent Soul Level! No wonder you don’t know the concept of ‘complete state’. Because I am at the Gold Core stage, I can stimulate the ‘complete state’ of a magic treasure at Nascent Soul Level. Next, let my humble opinion to answer some of your confusions.”

Lyu Liang heard with great joy, pulled Xu Mubai and returned to the cave residence, and he began to listen attentively.

“From the magic treasure at the Gold Core stage, there is a concept of ‘complete state’. There are two conditions for triggering the ‘complete state’. One is that the magic treasure must establish a connection with the owner, and the other is that the owner’s cultivation can only be one level lower than the magic treasure. For example, my Disorderly Light is an upper-grade magic treasure at the Nascent Soul Level, and I am a cultivator at Gold Core level, so I can easily stimulate its ‘complete state’. And your cultivation is at the Foundation Establishment Level, but the magic treasure is at the Nascent Soul level. Naturally, it is impossible for you to stimulate its ‘complete state’. This cultivation must be your real cultivation level, and any cultivation upgraded temporarily can not stimulate the “complete state” of the magic treasure.”

“The magic treasure that was not stimulated in the ‘complete state’ can only exert its own quality power. Only by stimulating the ‘complete state’ can the full power of the magic treasure be exerted! The reason your master not telling you before might be that your cultivation level is not proportional to the magic treasure level. And he was afraid that you would get too ambitious. However, in my view, your mind is determined, and will is strong. Surely you are not someone that will get boastful and impetuous. Therefore, I now told you, with your born talent, you must be a hit someday!”

After Xu Mubai finished the speech, he gave Lyu Liang a few more random words, got up and left, leaving Lyu Liang alone with a look of realization and aftertaste.

“No wonder back in the years when I was in the Virtual land, the seniors said that I still couldn’t release the full power of the Feiling sword.” In the thought of this, Lyu Liang’s heart began to look forward to it. Looking at the two long swords in front of him, Lyu Liang moved his mind and started to call Boy Feiling.

Weirdly enough, before entering the Sword Character Immortal Palace, Boy Feiling sometimes still had a thought transfer with himself. But shortly after entering the Immortal Palace, he did not take the initiative to contact Lyu Liang anymore and Lyu Liang did not care also. This time, calling out Boy Feiling was to understand what kind of power could appear when the Feiling sword was in the ‘complete state’.

At the same time as Lyu Liang thought, the small Boy Feiling appeared on the Feiling sword. He even scratched his little head and made an embarrassing look.

Lyu Liang smiled seeing this, and he said his doubts. Before Boy Feiling could answer, there came a domineering voice from the blue-light sword on the side. “Ling, ignore him! He actually used us as a common blade. He is the ultimate-grade of stupid. However, he can actually rely on that and release a trace of domain power, heaven’s eyes must be blinded!”
