Chapter Eighty-One: Knife

  Arrived at the Central Light Pillar, Fu Zhenzhen was the first to exchange, and obtained "Pharmaceutical King Scripture" and one "Tiancong Pill", one bottle of "Lingzhi Qi Supplement Pill". Zhang Yuanshan and Jiang Zhimiao really only exchanged for "I Ching Forging Bone Chapter" and "Holy Spirit Swordsmanship" "Unfeeling Part (Sword Nineteenth to Sword Twenty-two)".

  Qizheng thought for a moment and temporarily only exchanged two bottles of "Virtual Shape Beneficial Dan". He planned to decide on the other things after selecting a good weapon.

  "Xu Xing Yi Hua Dan", a commonly used elixir during the Open Enlightenment period, each bottle is worth 50 Good Deeds.

  Watching them exchange, Meng Qi slowly inserted the violent rain pear flower needle into the hazy light column.

  "Stormy Raindrop Needle's poisonous needle has been replenished, consuming 50 good deeds. Special reminder: This Stormy Raindrop Needle can only be used once more."

  "Exchange 'Nine Yin Manual' 'Transforming Tendons and Conquering Bones Chapter', consumes 300 merits."

  "Exchange 'Wind God Leg' beginner's essentials 'Catch Wind and Shadow', consume ninety good deeds."

  "Exchange one 'Tiancong Pill', consume 110 good deeds."

  When Meng Qi took his hand out of the Guanghua, the black cylinder of the Pear Blossom Needle had a few silver lights re-emerging from its front end. In addition, there were two more ancient and mysterious manuals in his hand, as well as a wax-sealed dan medicine.

  After flipping through two secret books, Meng Qi was very satisfied to put them away. The most important thing in it is the "Yi Jin Jian Gu Pian".

  He knew that apart from being slightly insightful, his innate talent was not exceptional, at most stronger than ordinary people, and similar to Qi Zhengyan. Even with the "Tiancong Pill", he might not necessarily succeed in opening up - Qi Zhengyan's success in operating his energy once did not mean he would definitely succeed too. Therefore, before officially taking the "Tiancong Pill" to open up, apart from continuing to refine the remaining three related acupoints, he had to cultivate the "Easy Tendon and Bone Tempering Chapter" to improve his innate talent and increase the chances of success.

  At the same time, practicing "Yi Jin Jing" also has a significant amplification effect on internal strength and power. Even when performing "Luohan Quan", it is no longer ordinary and simple, but rather practical and profound.

  "It's time to choose a good sword." Meng Qi smiled, revealing eight white teeth.

  "You're really laughing happily." Seeing him like this, Jiang Zhi couldn't help but laugh and scold him.

  Meng Qi walked over to their side, flipped through the jade book, and quickly skimmed past the divine soldiers, precious weapons, and expensive instruments, lest he fell in love with something he couldn't afford and ended up sorrowful.

  So, what "Tiger Soul", "Yan Luo", "Heaven's Tear", "Snow Drink", "Dragon Slaying Sword" and so on, Meng Qi just glanced at them briefly, without a second look, until the price of "Sharp Tool Chapter" was within 300 Shan Gong.

  He was hesitant about whether to exchange the Golden Bell Cover's first four secret techniques for the Six Paths of Reincarnation's master, after all, his master had been so good to him, and doing so would be somewhat against his principles. Moreover, even if he exchanged them, he would only get 80-110 good deeds, not enough to exchange for a decent Heaven Demon Body Severing Technique, and with the remaining 140 good deeds, it was still within the range of 300.

  So he directly started from the two hundred good deeds below the sharp tool, if there is a suitable and not bad one inside, then it is not necessary to make things difficult for his own principle.

  "Receiving the Qing Yu Dao, a sharp blade, valued at 130 merits. It can clear one's mind and spirit, ward off illusions and **."

  As Meng Qi concentrated his attention, a bright and soft light appeared on the jade book, revealing a cyan-colored sword with a gentle glow, as if it were real.

  "This dagger is pretty good..." Meng Qi thought highly of the Qingyu Emerald Dagger, which could reduce hallucinations and ***, after suffering greatly from sensory illusions during this mission.

  "If you can successfully open your eyes before the next task, you will have a certain degree of dispelling illusion ability, which is similar to the effect of receiving the Qing Yu Dao."

  "Me too." Meng Qi nodded lightly.

  Now that the seal is lifted and the "Wind God's Leg" is exchanged, it's not because Meng Qi thinks that opening the seal might still take a year or so, after which he can go to the Scripture Pavilion to browse the ultimate techniques and learn qinggong. However, if this year or so of time isn't used to practice some qinggong, it would be a waste. After all, even if one obtains an ultimate technique after opening the seal, they still need to cultivate it again, unlike the ability to see through illusions which is obtained directly after opening the seal. Therefore, in order to prevent the next cycle's task from having a short interval, and perhaps getting stuck right before or after opening the seal, exchanging a qinggong as a lifesaving measure is only reasonable.

  He continued to flip through it and soon found a reasonably priced and suitable dagger.

  "Cicada Wing Ice Blade, a sharp weapon worth 180 Good Deeds, forged from the extreme north's icy marrow and cold iron. Not only is it transparent and seemingly invisible, but also extremely cold to the bone. After inflicting wounds on enemies, their injuries will become stiff and frozen, directly affecting their movements."

  "This is a knife that kills without shedding blood."

  On the jade book, a short knife reappeared. Its body was transparent and thin as a cicada's wing. At first glance, it seemed like nothing existed there. Only by looking closely could one find it by the faint chill emanating from its body.

  "This knife is good, but..." Zhang Yuanshan didn't finish speaking, he just looked at Meng Qi.

  Meng Qi sighed: "It's actually a short knife."

  I'm currently accustomed to using the long sword and the broadsword, but not skilled with short swords. Although this "Cicada Wing Ice Sword" is very compatible with the Blood Sword technique, producing an unpredictable and mysterious effect, my strongest suit and future development direction is actually the Arhat Breaking Sword Technique and its variations, which doesn't match well. After all, I'm still not at the level where I can wield any sword as I please.

  "Actually, we should consider a special kind of enemy." Zi Zhengyan interrupted at this time.

  Meng Qi and Jiang Zhiwei both looked at him, waiting for his explanation.

  Qizheng's face sank as he said, "As I mentioned earlier, this time's task has encountered many monsters with strong demonic energy and terrifying auras, making them extremely difficult to deal with. I've suffered quite a bit, so I plan to choose a long sword that can suppress these monsters."

  "This time it's a yokai, next time it might be an onryo or an akuryo, or even a skilled sorcerer. If you're going to choose a sword, aside from sharpness, why not consider its usefulness in this regard?"

  "That makes sense." Meng Qi nodded in strong agreement.

  "Although some martial arts and moves are extremely orthodox and powerful, able to overcome them, having similar weapons is also very good. However, one cannot neglect the requirement of being sharp and solid in oneself. After all, in most cases, what needs to be dealt with are ordinary types of enemies."

  "Hmm." With specific requirements, Meng Qi found it much easier to search and exclude, and soon found a suitable sword.

  "Red Sun Town Evil Knife, a sharp instrument, worth one hundred and fifty good deeds, forged from the peripheral iron stone of Taiyang Golden Essence, tempered on the edge. Later, a half-step external scenery high monk recited scriptures for 99 days to remove the evil spirits, quite effective in controlling evil objects and suppressing filth."

  "This is a scorching knife that brings suffering to both oneself and others."

  "The Red Day Town Evil Sword" is an ordinary-style sword, but the blade has a faint red glow, covered with intricate patterns like embroidery.

  "That's it!" After reading the introduction, Meng Qi's eyes lit up and he decided on this mouth ring knife.

  As for the issue of the knife body emitting heat, what is the fourth pass of Jin Zhongzhao afraid of?

  Since Meng Qi had already made up his mind, and the knife was indeed not bad, Zhang Yuanshan and others naturally had no opinion. Jiang Zhimiao borrowed ten good deeds from him and exchanged this "Red Day Town Evil Knife" out.

  It was scorching hot, as if it had just been taken out of the fire. Meng Qi grasped it tightly, and even with the Golden Bell Shield's fourth level activated, he still felt a wave of heat, fortunately able to withstand the damage.

  "No wonder it's only worth 150 good deeds." Meng Qi fondled it lovingly, and if he didn't have the Golden Bell Shield on his body, he would probably have to disperse a large part of his internal energy to wrap around his right hand to prevent being burned by this "Red Sun Evil Quelling Knife", which would reduce his strength by half.

  If it weren't for this flaw, "Red Day Town Evil Knife" would be worth at least two hundred good deeds.

  Afterwards, Meng Qi and others began to help Qizheng Yan find a long sword that could restrain the demon, and finally found a dark red treasure sword with floral patterns throughout.

  "Dragon Pattern Crimson Gold Sword, a sharp weapon worth 250 merits, forged from a piece of crimson gold that has been tempered by the rolling of a true dragon, containing the might of a demon god, capable not only of intimidating demonic creatures but also affecting nearly all enemies."

  "This is a majestic sword."

  For "Dragon Blood Sword", Qi Zhengyan was very satisfied, his own skills were enough, and he exchanged it quickly.

  As soon as the long sword was taken out of the light pillar surrounded by immortal energy, Meng Qi, Jiang Zhiwei, and Fu Zhenshen all felt a faint aura that was majestic and noble yet terrifying and frightening, and their minds and bodies seemed to tremble at the same time.

  Clang!

  Zhang Yushan's waist "Sword of the Mantis" sounded like a dragon's roar, as if it was about to be drawn out of its scabbard, competing with the "Dragon Pattern Red Gold Sword".

  "Good sword! Good sword!" Jiang Zhiwei's eyes lit up with excitement and delight, her voice ringing out in crisp praise.

  Qizheng's words made Liang's fingers caress the long sword, and a rare smile appeared on his usually expressionless face. As a swordsman, one's own treasured sword was equivalent to a second life.

  Of course, after practicing "Hun Tian Bao Jian", he is no longer a pure swordsman.

  At this time, the majestic and indifferent voice of the master of the six paths of reincarnation rang out:

  "Exchange complete, store items properly, return to your own world."

  When he heard it, Meng Qi suddenly remembered something. He was currently being "isolated" because of the true eternal scripture theft, and if he had a lot of secret books on him, he might be mistaken for an accomplice. But if he left the secret books in space, how would he have time to memorize them now?

  He then asked the master of the six paths of reincarnation if he could apply in advance for a chance to enter halfway.

  The master of the six paths of reincarnation is still that voice without emotion:

  "The interval between two reincarnation tasks cannot enter the reincarnation space unless it is exchanged for practice time in advance and the date of entry is confirmed."

  However, when returning to its own world, it can send a specified item to a designated location once, non-living.

  After hearing the sentence behind, Meng Qi let out a sigh of relief and put away the "Red Sun Town Evil Knife", the violent rain pear flower needle and the white monk's robe in his own room. Then he changed into a gray monk's robe and another dagger - his package was not occupied by others at the same time, and it was transmitted back, with the cyan common clothes, gray monk's robe, Doukang and spare daggers bought inside, no need to use Shan Gong to exchange again.

  Then he had Liudao Lunhui Zhi Zhu send the "Yi Jin Cuan Gu Pian" and Tiancong Wan to the hollow of the Bodhi tree in Xuanbei Temple.

  A flash of white light passed by, and Meng Qi seemed to have fallen asleep for a moment. He immediately opened his eyes, and he was already back in the meditation room.

  "No pure mind is the chief seat; true concentration and true wisdom are within."

  At this time, Zhen Miao's voice echoed in the courtyard.
