The Secret of The Demonic Artifact The End of a Play
That afternoon, there was a crowd at the top of Wudang Mountain. A young boy stood on the sect's podium, looking awkward in the crowd of other children. The boy was Eadric Rong, who was asked to explain how he could cultivate Pure Eve energy.Eadric Rong began to clarify, followed by scornful looks from the crowd of new kids."I hereby confirm that I have never used any underhanded tactics or cheated in my actions in the Energy Meter trials." Eadric Rong stopped and sighed, trying to muffle his heartbeat.Although his voice did not project using pure air, because it was so quiet, every word he spoke was clearly heard and immediately understood by his listeners.Eadric Rong continued, "On that day, while I was traveling for resources in the middle of the Cloud Pine Forest, I accidentally came across a very strange tree.The tree had red leaves and fruit. Surprisingly, the fruit was also red and was the only fruit growing on the tree!"At this point, everyone listening to the story from
The Secret of The Demonic Artifact Night of the Dead Moon – Part II
As a gust of cold wind slapped Edmon Ouwyang's face, he wiped away a drop of tear that fell on his cheek. In the depths of his heart, he vowed to take revenge and make the boy named Eadric Rong regret having stolen the show during the Wudang Sect's recruitment.Until the sun appeared to be leaning over the western horizon, and when the sky had turned a blood-red color, Edmon Ouwyang's anger towards Eadric Rong still had not subsided.Finally, when the Lorien Priest announced that just over half of the candidates had made the cut, Eadric Rong walked back to his hut at the edge of the Bamboo Grove.In the old and humble hut, Rongkuo was lost in deep reverie. He wondered what techniques he should borrow from the library tomorrow.As a disciple, everyone in the outer courtyard was given permission to have one copy of the first-level sword skill and one copy of the zero-level empty-handed palm martial arts skill.The happiness Eadric Rong felt at that moment was overwhelming. His face was
The Secret of The Demonic Artifact Night of the Dead Moon – Part II
He gazed up at the star-filled sky, feeling excited for the future to come.Standing on a cliff that was about two meters high from the narrow street, Eadric Rong jumped lightly.There is a flat section on the cliff, a perfect place for an expert to sit to cultivate while absorbing the gentle Moon's energy."Didn't anyone see me?" muttered Eadric Rong in a low voice.He checked left and right, alert to the possibility of any sect disciples or sect guards who might pass by and see him.His face changed into relief, so he carefully spread his special mat on the flat part of the cliff rock."This is the perfect night to absorb all the moon's energy," he murmured as he looked up at the dark sky. "According to Senior Kyron Mo, it is precisely on a dead moon night like this that the energy I will absorb will be of higher quality!"After that, he sat quietly in the lotus position, and began to meditate with full concentration.As the gloomy and cold moonlight seeped into his body, Eadric Ron
The Secret of The Demonic Artifact Break Even! – Part I
The clock is set according to Chen Shi's time in the Shichen system, meaning the current time is between 7:00 am and 9:00 am, when the sun has risen and is in the sky. The bright light cast on the Bamboo Forest is mesmerizing.In a decrepit-looking hut, sunlight streamed through the cracks in the window, which was covered with old paper torn in several places. The bright rays exposed Fenn Zhao's eyes to blinding light, making him squint."Where am I?" Fenn Zhao wondered inwardly. He had just woken up from a stupor and tried to get up immediately.However, as soon as he moved, an excruciating pain attacked his chest."Ouch!" he screamed.The pain was so intense that tears fell from his eyes."What happened to me? Did I break my sternum?" Fenn Zhao thought in panic.Then, he began to remember. In the middle of the night, before dawn, he had come to a remote hut at the edge of the Bamboo Forest, where Eadric Rong lived.His intention was to break the boy's dantian. However, unexpectedly,
The Secret of The Demonic Artifact Break Even! – Part I
"Now, quickly leave here. Before my anger peaks and I decide to slit your throat and take your life. As luck would have it, I only retaliated by breaking your dantian, just like what you were about to do to me last night. Isn't it even?" said Eadric Rong mercilessly. He'd had enough of these cruel kids like Fenn Zhao.At that moment, the sun was directly overhead. The wind blowing in the Bamboo Forest continued to rustle, swaying the bamboo stalks as if they were graceful dancers.The rustling sound of the long leaves created a melody that resembled the strains of a flute, bringing a strange feeling to the heart.Fenn Zhao hobbled along, holding his staff tightly. A stabbing pain coursed through his body, making every step feel like torture.He had suffered two devastating blows. The first blow was his broken sternum, a painful physical injury.However, the second blow was far more severe: damage to his dantian, the spiritual energy center in his body. As a result of that damage, he w
The Secret of The Demonic Artifact Thirteen Flying Bird Sword Moves
Millie Xiao's status was quite high in the Wudang Sect as a senior Inner Court disciple, as well as the niece of Elder Juric Teng.Moreover, as a senior disciple at a young age, Millie Xiao's cultivation level was already at the Jade Tiger Swordsman Quasi realm. This was a high tier for a child of her age.So, in Millie Xiao's eyes, the children of that rich man Edmon Ouwyang were like insignificant dust in the face of her high status.With a dissatisfied look on her face, she asked,"Do you want me to drag those four kids along, then have them apologize to you?" asked Millie Xiao, trying to hide her angry expression."No need," Eadric Rong replied, looking calm."I will not be swayed by their provocations. After all, aren't they only briefly able to show off their beautiful and expensive clothes?”“This afternoon, all the new kids have to pick up their sect uniforms and wear them in their daily activities," Eadric Rong replied calmly."Alright then," Millie Xiao replied. For some rea
The Secret of The Demonic Artifact An Evil Plan – Part I.
The most relevant explanation for the question swirling in Eadric Rong's heart was why he was able to execute the Thirteen Flying Bird Moves Sword Technique—a First Rank sword technique, which the front page of the manual warned about:'took six months to complete the training.' The answer lay in Eadric Rong's Cultivation Level. Ever since obtaining the Pearl Core from senior Mi Shilin, his strength instantly soared, reaching the peak of the Jade Tiger Swordsman realm.The Thirteen Flying Bird Moves Sword Technique, meanwhile, was specially designed for first-year disciples, most of whom cultivated in the Crystal Dew Swordsman realm.Thus, when Eadric Rong was practicing the Sword Technique, the amount of energy he had far exceeded the requirements. As a result, every time he executed those Sword Moves, everything felt easy and smooth.However, Eadric Rong remained unaware of one thing.His strength was already quite strong and had even exceeded the strength of the Wudang Sect's core
The Secret of The Demonic Artifact An Evil Plan – Part II.
There was no reply from his three friends when they heard Edmon Ouwyang's plan. Silence ensued among the four children. However, Edmon Ouwyang spoke again. He then sounded angry."What the hell are you three doing? Why is no one supporting me with this plan? Do you no longer consider me your good friend?" Edmon Ouwyang's voice sounded very harsh.Meanwhile, his three friends could be heard persuading him. Zheng Feng's voice was the one speaking at that moment."Listen to me, Edmon Ouwyang," Zheng Feng said, "It's not that we don't want to support you. However, the rules in the Wudang Sect are very strict.If bullying occurs and is as fatal as you plan, we're worried that the four of us will be the ones to suffer in the future.So, why not postpone your plan, until we get a chance to harm the boy, without any witnesses?"Edmon Ouwyang was silent for a moment, then ordered, "Speak now!"The sound of breathing could be heard, and Zheng Feng began to lay out his plan."Don't bring him har

Five-Color Organization - Part II.
On a dark night, Mount Lingyun looked gloomy.A somber yet quiet and serene impression will befall the feelings of anyone who sees it, as if the guarding of the Five Colors Organization, from the foot of the mountain to the gate at the top, does not seem strict. However, don't get me wrong.Calm waters are not always harmless. As the saying goes, beware... still waters can wash away.Behind all this vigilance, there were several spies of the Five Colors Organization standing guard. They were along with demonic creatures lurking in the darkness of the night, ready to pounce on anyone who dared to try to break through to Lingyun Mountain Peak.Currently, at the edge of the Osmanthus Forest, there were two guards hiding and blending into the night.They were as if they were part of the Osmanthus tree and the Spruce tree itself, very much in disguise. They were both always on standby to unleash their secret weapon - An Qi, or throw a flying knife on that pitch-black night, in case of an i
Five-Color Organization – Part II.
The chicken porridge seller who cooperated with the Four Sacks Beggar, in his opinion, had gone too far, wanting to take his life just for the sake of a manual.Holding some evidence in hand, "We'll see what I do with that organization," Eadric Rong muttered.Now, he had confirmed that the porridge man was indeed a hitman from the Five Colors Organization. He stepped up and left the deserted alley.Right now, the deserted hallway was silent again after Eadric Rong's departure.When the night watchman and the opas - a time-keeper with a bell - walked through the alleyway, they found only the traces of the battle: a wall in ruins. They found only the traces of the battle in the form of a crumbling wall."Murder!"The opas officer tapped the drum loudly. His voice broke the silence of the night as the first drum was about to be sounded. And Daqi Capital was shocked that very night."A chicken porridge vendor was found dead on a deserted road. Surprisingly, there are traces of the attack
Five-Color Organization – Part I.
With incredible speed, the An Qi thrown by the four-sack beggar rushed over.Meanwhile, the chicken porridge vendor's cleaver was also moving at the same speed. The speed of these two attacks made it difficult for even a high-level martial arts expert to avoid them.However, there was a sudden crackling sound from the young man's hand, similar to the sound of wood breaking.KRAK - KRAK!Following the deafening sound, the young man they considered weak shouted in a high-pitched voice."DRAGON'S CRYING CLAW!"Something the two mysterious attackers never expected happened.The young man's hand suddenly formed a deadly grip similar to a dragon's claw. White smoke billowed out and formed the shadow and silhouette of a dragon.Fearlessly, the young man slammed his right hand into the gleaming machete, as if he had no fear of having his hand cut in half.PRANG!After the clash between the youth's dragon claw and the cleaver, a clattering sound filled the quiet night, making the two attackers

Eadric Rong gave the congee vendor a quick glance.The vendor carried his wares, then put down his basket and sat at the corner of the narrow street. He hoped that Eadric Rong would have had a hard time getting through the narrow passage, if the congee vendor hadn't moved his wares to make room for others to pass through.In addition, there was a beggar sitting not far from him. The beggar had been mumbling in an indistinct voice, the words roughly reading "I'm hungry...""A beggar with clean clothes, and four sacks on his back?" thought Eadric Rong. What an irony. A beggar in clean clothes complaining of hunger, while there's a chicken porridge vendor with the tantalizing aroma of broth and stir-fried garlic next to him? Eadric Rong's vigilance instantly increased."Uncle... can't you lift your tools, so that young me can pass?" said Eadric Rong in a friendly tone full of anticipation. However, those two were behaving strangely. "Why trade in a lonely, narrow alley? Besides... beggin
Huobo Rank Hundred Talismans Manual – Part II.
The voices of people shouting encouraged Tang Wei to bid for the manual at a higher price. However, Tang Wei's face turned pale. He felt cornered, trapped in a difficult decision."My means are limited to fifteen thousand gold coins," he muttered to himself. "I must set aside funds and give priority to bidding on the Main Auction.”“Instead of squandering money on a Huobo-class manual. Let me just give in this time, I don't want to be scolded by the Patriarch if I run out of money and can't participate in the main auction."With gritted teeth and restrained embarrassment, Tang Wei raised a hand, signaling that he wouldn't bid any higher. "Let the manual belong to the young master," he said in an almost inaudible voice.Tang Wei's face turned red as the entire auction room sneered at him. Tang Wei could only stare intently at the hick-looking rich young man with an angry expression. "You'll see. I'll take the manual away, if I get the chance!" thought Tang Wei with a face that now look
Huobo Rank Hundred Talismans Manual – Part I.
"Fifteen thousand gold coins for a Huobo-class manual?" exclaimed a man in a tone of disbelief."Has that youngster lost his mind? That's a very high price, even for the standards of Huobo's most expensive manuals!"Meanwhile, the other people in the room were busy discussing the figure of the young master who dared to purchase the Talisman manual at such a high price. The atmosphere became boisterous, and rumors began to circulate."Who is that young master?" a woman asked with deep curiosity. "Is he from the Four Seasons Noble Family? Or perhaps from the Zhao Family? Or, perhaps, he's from the Xiao Family?"At that time, out of all the Four Seasons noble families, only the Zhao Family and Xiao Family had yet to act on the bargain. They seemed to be hiding in the crowd, seemingly waiting and watching, like hawks ready to pounce on prey."The Tang family just bought a manual represented by Tang Wei," said an old man with a hoarse voice. "As for the Murong Family? That is an impossible
Bidding - Part II.
For example, Wuji Sword - Huobo Rank, Sky Rank Recovery Pill, Weapon Repelling Armor, Chi Concentration Bracelet, Rú Yì Shàn Wind Blowing Fan, Immortal Spirit Grail, Dragon Binding Rope, Sealing Stone Necklace, to Obsidian Stone Necklace.All of these items were sold at high bid prices, up to five times the actual auction price.However, among all the valuables and artifacts, there was not a single one that interested Eadric Rong.Eadric Rong was only amused as he watched the tension build as the auction progressed. The quality of the items Liu Ningxi announced on stage was increasing, giving rise to a hostile atmosphere. The problem was, none of the bidders were willing to budge."Let me not stand out too much, because what I need is the main auction, not all these things," Eadric Rong thought to himself as he tried to calm down. In his heart, he actually trembled at the sight of the rare items at the grand auction.Eadric Rong realized that the number of treasures left behind by the
Bidding - Part I.
Luckily, Eadric Rong had a special token given directly by Miss Murong Lin. He got a VIP seat located on the balcony, separated from the crowd.Meanwhile, the activities on stage began. A shadowy figure of a young girl appeared to move, dressed in a dazzlingly tight outfit."The Lucky Koi Hall Grand Auction is about to begin. We're going straight into the first auction!" A twenty-year-old girl stood on the stage. Special spotlights of special gemstones and gems were beamed at her, making her stand out, with a slender waist... seemingly swaying like the Yang Liu Tree in the spring breeze.The girl was named Liu Ningxi, a subordinate of Miss Murong the manager of the Lucky Koi.With her melodious voice, Liu Ningxi began to open the price... "Sky Palm Style Martial Arts Manual - Tiān Gāng Quán Pǔ Huobo Rating. It is an ancient manual containing high-level Palm Art martial techniques. The price starts at five hundred gold coins!"An uproar suddenly broke out. The sound of bargaining fille

"Hey Zhaoyun!" someone shouted from the crowd."Who is that Hei Zhaoyun?" someone else whispered. "Why is his appearance so hideous?"The sound of the crowd watching was noisy. In the tense atmosphere, they wondered who the figure was who was now sitting on the coffin, staring coldly at the surroundings. A mysterious and sinister aura emanated from him, making the surrounding air colder.A moment later, the strange and eccentric-looking figure called Hei Zhaoyun suddenly stood up, as if the earth's gravity had no effect on him. In a stiff movement, he took a glance as if floating, and in an instant was standing in front of the receptionists."Y-your invitation, please show... M-Mr. Which Sect do you represent?" asked the greeter at the hall door in a trembling voice. The young man and young woman were already breaking out in cold sweat. Both wanted to stare at the strange man's figure, but they were terrified."Hei Zhaoyun of the Hell's Tomb Sect. Can I come in already?" asked Hei Zha
