#249 - The cultural level of Lao Zhang
Immortal.
This was the first time Wei Changtian had seen this level of rating for an item in the system.
Previously, all items in the system only had six kinds of notes:
Heaven, Earth, Profound, Yellow, Special, and Disposable.
So when did this “Immortal” level pop up?
He opened the system store and searched for a long time among the vast array of items, but he didn't see any Immortal-level items.
Combining this with the description “No description available, purchase permission not yet enabled,” Wei Changtian suddenly had an idea.
Could it be that Immortal-level items can only be found by searching their names and are not displayed in the item list?
If so, does this mean that this kind of item has exceeded a certain “category”?
But how did Old Zhang get this “beyond-version” sword technique?
But if it is the latter, then it will be a complete disappointment.
Taking a deep breath, Wei Changtian quickly continued to flip through the sword manual, trying to find the answer.
An hour later.
The carriage was still speeding along the official road in the mountains, with the bright moon hanging high overhead.
Entry Realm, Severing the Tide.
Pure Realm, Opening the Clouds.
Minor Perfection, Plucking the Stars.
Great Perfection, Falling Moon.
After seeing the second half of the sword manual, Wei Changtian had basically come to a good news and a bad news.
The good news is that this sword technique should indeed be called “Picking the Moon”.
The bad news is that this “Picking the Moon Sword” does not look like an Immortal-level martial skill that can surpass the Heaven-level.
Because it is too simple.
Compared to the obscure and difficult to understand “Returning Dust Saber”, every move of the “Picking the Moon Sword” is extraordinarily ordinary, and even feels a bit like basic swordsmanship.
Wei Changtian did not believe in the nonsense of “The Great Dao is Simple”.
No matter how proficient you are in junior high school physics, you cannot build an atomic bomb, which is about the same principle.
“Shua, shua”
The speed of turning the pages could not help but increase a bit, and his expression gradually became impatient.
But adhering to the “good habit” of seeing things through to the end, Wei Changtian continued to read until the last page of the sword manual.
Then he suddenly froze.
“What the hell”
I have to say, Old Zhang can always bring some “surprises”.
Who would have thought that there would be a letter sandwiched in the last page of this sword manual!
More importantly, what was written on the envelope was—
To Tu'er (Disciple) Personally??
The character “徒” (disciple) has too many strokes, can't you write it??
With a very bad premonition, Wei Changtian slowly tore open the envelope and shook out a piece of letter paper filled with crooked small characters.
“Tu'er, it has been too many days since I, as your master, have picked up a pen. If there are any O characters, just pretend nothing happened.”
“. . .”
???
Can someone tell me what this is written?
Wei Changtian suddenly felt as if he had returned to the early 21st century when Martian language was popular, and he repeatedly read it several times in a daze before he finally understood the sentence.
Disciple, it has been too many days since I, as your master, have picked up a pen. If there are any typos, just pretend nothing happened.
Nothing happened?
I can tolerate typos, but what do you mean by circling a circle?
Good fellow, won't there be a whole “seventy-eight words omitted here” later?
Suppressing the speechless feeling in his heart, Wei Changtian continued to read little by little, and his expression became more and more wonderful.
Old Zhang's letter was concise and to the point. First, he stated that he had confiscated the five hundred taels of “private money” that Wei Changtian had secretly left for Agou. Then, he praised the Picking the Moon Sword Manual, encouraging Wei Changtian to practice diligently and strive to reach his height as soon as possible. Finally, he expressed his dissatisfaction with Wei Changtian's “farewell without saying goodbye”.
At the very end, Old Zhang also mentioned the jade pendant engraved with “Kui Dragon”.
Of course, it was still a string of “Martian language”, which took Wei Changtian a long time to understand.
“Disciple, I suddenly remembered that the jade pendant I gave you will heat up and glow every few years, and occasionally some small characters will appear.”
“However, in recent years, I have been throwing it in a box, so I don't know if it will still be like this now.”
“This pendant is definitely not an ordinary thing, you little brat got a good deal.”
“. . .”
Flipping the letter paper over to confirm that nothing was missing, Wei Changtian finally breathed a sigh of relief, and no longer had the interest to complain.
He took out the jade pendant, looking at it while pondering the meaning of Old Zhang's last few words.
It seems that this is the communication token of Kui Dragon, and it is more advanced than the Mother-Son Jade, and can even directly send “text messages”!
It is foolish to talk about science in the world of cultivation, so Wei Changtian did not dwell on how this function was achieved, but was thinking about how to activate the communication ability of this jade pendant.
He had previously tried to use the method of Mother-Son Jade, but it did not work.
So there must be a more complicated way to use it.
His fingers stroked the ghost-faced dragon carved on the front, and Wei Changtian suddenly thought of the remnant soul in the Profound Heaven Sword.
That thing obviously knows most, if not all, of the secrets of the Kui Dragon organization.
That's right!
So wouldn't it be enough to just get it out and ask!
Because he killed Wu Tianqing and others in Yanyun Mountain, Wei Changtian was worried about retaliation, so he had always been very curious about Kui Dragon.
Now that he has obtained this jade pendant, it is time to figure out all of this.
As for the lifespan required to summon the remnant soul...
Hehe, Xiao Feng is unwilling to harm people, so he uses his own lifespan.
But I was not a good person in the first place, so just find someone to “pay” for me... There is nothing wrong with that, right?
Alright! I will get this done first when I return to Shu Province!
Happily putting the sword manual and jade pendant into his arms, Wei Changtian was in a good mood at this time.
He opened the car curtain and looked outside.
The moon was bright and the stars were few, and the faint moonlight leaked down, covering the mountains, plains, and carriages.
However, when this silver light traveled thousands of miles to Yanyun Mountain outside Shu Province, it was completely obscured by thick dark clouds.
“. . .”
“Wuu wuu wuu, wuu wuu wuu”
“Husband, why didn't you wait for me.”
“Why!!”
“Why!!!”
In the dense forest at the waist of Yanyun Mountain, a woman knelt and hugged a corpse that had rotted to the point of revealing white bones, crying bitterly.
In front of her was a large hole several feet deep, surrounded by large piles of yellow earth.
Obviously, this corpse was dug out of the soil alive by the woman.
Such a scene is undoubtedly very terrifying, and if it is combined with the dark clouds rolling in the night sky above, it will be even more terrifying.
“That's right!”
“Husband, don't you like to eat fish?”
“The fish you didn't have time to eat! I brought it to you!”
“I allow you to eat it, eat it!”
“Eat it!!”
Suddenly, the woman did not know where she took out a wrinkled dried fish, and then frantically sent it to the skull's mouth hanging with remnants of flesh, until the skull had completely “eaten” the dried fish, she smiled with satisfaction:
“Giggle giggle, husband.”
“You ate it, you ate it.”
