The Secret of The Demonic Artifact Tangye City – Part II.
Although it was cramped, it provided the peace and quiet that Eadric Rong needed.Right now, the moon hangs over the horizon, and the air feels very cold.Winter is here, and although snow has not yet covered the ground, the air is already cold enough to make many people choose to stay indoors, reducing their outdoor activities.So, don't be surprised when it's the Hai Shi period, or 21:00 - 23:00, the streets of Tangye City are very quiet. No one is wandering around. Even traveling food vendors who usually use carts or carrying poles are nowhere to be seen on the streets.However, on that dark night, a shadowy figure seemed to dart from within the temple. It leapt from the railing of the Sanqing Temple wall, its movements quick and agile, like an eagle flying high in the sky.The figure moved powerfully, not making the slightest sound as his feet hit the ground. If you look closely, he is our hero - Eadric Rong.Eadric Rong, with his keen eyes and trained sensibilities, felt every gu
The Secret of The Demonic Artifact Tangye City Branch Office.
On this cold morning, Eadric Rong quickly cleaned the courtyard of Sanqing Temple. The air felt piercing against his skin, making his breath appear as thin vapor in the air.Although it was already mid-winter, snow had not yet fallen, and the leaves of the maple trees planted on the shrine grounds had already fallen. They looked dry without leaves, giving an impression of desolation and frost.Eadric Rong continued to sweep and organize the temple grounds to ensure they looked neat and clean for the pilgrims who came to pray.The sound of the broom scraping the ground echoed softly, mingling with the gentle breeze. The smell of wet soil and dry leaves filled the air, adding to the silence of the morning.Eadric Rong even lit a sandalwood-scented incense stick in the prayer hall. The thin smoke from the incense swirled around, spreading a soothing aroma that blended with the fragrance of the temple's old wood. After making sure everything was in order, he left.His face was smiling, as
The Secret of The Demonic Artifact Tangye City Branch Office – Part II.
Eadric Rong's demeanor and way of speaking were much different now than before.He appeared meaner, more stern, and merciless. The two guards visibly trembled, their faces turning deathly pale.Hearing the young priest's words, the two guards immediately fell to their knees, tears streaming down their weathered faces. Their cries erupted, their voices hoarse and filled with fear."Forgive my blindness, Protector Guo," one of them wailed, his voice faltering."Please don't kill me. I still have a wife and child at home whom I need to support. Who will provide for them if I die?" added the other guard, his voice full of panic and desperation.Satisfied with scaring the two arrogant guards, Eadric Rong strode past them as they knelt fearfully, then directly into the hall. The sound of his footsteps echoed on the magnificent marble floor.Inside the hall, a beautiful woman sat behind the counter with a graceful posture and a cold gaze.The soft light from the chandeliers on the ceiling re
The Secret of The Demonic Artifact Morning on Yin Yue Mountain.
Although confused, Manager Su nodded quickly. "Yes, Protector Guo. In the next two days at the latest, I will deliver copies of the maps directly to Sanqing Temple."In the back of his mind, Manager Su wondered: What was Protector Guo's purpose in collecting the maps of these two white sects?>>>> The night at the top of Mount Yinyue, the headquarters of the Silver Moon Sect, was very quiet when the first drum sounded.Only the sound of the night breeze blowing softly caused the pine tree leaves to rustle, adding to the silence.Unfortunately, thick dew began to cover the leaves and freeze, so the fresh aroma of the Pine Forest seemed to be drowned out by the winter chill.A figure flashed quickly, jumping nimbly from one tree to another. Its wide cloak spread out like the wings of a large bat, giving it a frightening impression.When the gloomy moonlight fell on his face, there was only a cold look behind the black jade mask.He was Bianfu Wang, otherwise known as the Black Bat King
The Secret of The Demonic Artifact Morning on Yin Yue Mountain – Part II.
The Black Bat King's hand stretched out, pushing the window with a smooth motion that made no sound. The wooden latticed window covered in Hanzi paper suddenly turned to dust, as if touched by a supernatural force.Inside the Silver Moon Sect's library, an atmosphere of silence prevailed. The Black Bat King climbed the stairs with light steps, heading toward an old bookcase labeled "Secrets." The scent of dusty old books and weathered wood filled the air, creating a mysterious aura.He lit the lighter and began to scrutinize title after title of the Silver Moon Sect's copy of the Book of Knowledge. The small light from the lighter cast shadows on the wall, adding to the dramatic feel."Where is this Silver Shadow Sword Dance Style, one of the Silver Moon Sect's most deadly techniques, hidden?" he murmured, his sharp eyes scanning each book carefully.He searched for a long time but had yet to find the sword technique he wanted. The Black Bat King was nearly desperate.Just then, a par
The Secret of The Demonic Artifact The Chase Under the Full Moon – Part I.
After the incident at Yinyue Mountain Peak, the martial world was in an uproar. This event created a huge wave in society, causing whispers and discussions everywhere.Stories of the Black Bat King breaking into the library at Yinyue Peak were increasingly being told.Through word of mouth, the story continued to evolve, adding color and detail that fascinated listeners.In restaurants, tea houses, and various entertainment venues throughout the Wriston Empire, storytellers and traveling artists even openly performed operas about the Black Bat King's magic, vividly portraying how foolish the Silver Moon Sect was that he defeated.When the opera was presented on stage, the melodious voices of the singers and the agile movements of the dancers depicted all the scenes perfectly, showcasing the extraordinary ability of the Black Bat King.The Black Bat King was finally portrayed as a superhero, captivating many.Consequently, the White Stream side became even angrier.They continued to se
The Secret of The Demonic Artifact The Chase Under the Full Moon – Part II.
Intentionally, as if caught by the patrolling Zhonglu Sect troops, he made those with high body lightening skills jump onto the ridge and performed a chase action on top of the Zhonglu Sect's ridge.Teng-teng!A clanging sound rang out, creating a stir in the Zhonglu Sect."After him, book thief!" "He just came out of the library, breaking into our sect's martial arts!"Noisy voices could be heard behind the Black Bat King; he just sneered the whole time. Finally, when the Black Bat King arrived at one of the ridges of an enormous building, he left his pursuers far behind.But at that moment, a deadly sword aura suddenly filled the atmosphere."Enough of your cat-and-mouse games, Black Bat King!"A middle-aged man stood upright like a needle in the corner of the building's vast ridge.In his hand was a sword that glinted in the moonlight, giving off a majestic yet terrifying impression. In a low but firm voice, the figure spoke."Return our Zhonglu Sect's martial arts book that you st
The Secret of The Demonic Artifact Imperial Troops and Cultivators - I.
This time, the break-in at the Library on Zhonglu Mountain wasn't as exciting as the incident on Yunyue Mountain, when the Silver Moon Sect's library was vandalized.Nonetheless, this incident has left many people uneasy.As a result, that very morning, Gao Li, the leader of the Zhonglu Sect, was seen climbing the peak of Wudang with furious steps. Behind him were several Zhonglu Sect disciples carrying a sizable chest, which was carried by two people.The sun had just risen, its light softly shining on the mountain ridges, creating long shadows along the path Gao Li and his followers traveled.At the sect gate, Gao Li was greeted by the guardian disciples on the steps up to the peak of Wudang. With a tense face and an unfriendly expression, Gao Li only answered their greetings with a brief nod, without a word."What's wrong, making Leader Gao's face look grim?" one of the disciples whispered to his colleague."He didn't even answer our greetings... it's fortunate that his figure is a

"Isn't it possible that the Zhen Long pill, the grand prize we're after, will be brought in by an expert from the neighboring Empire. That would tarnish the face of all the cultivators of this country!" worried murmurs could be heard from various directions.Meanwhile, on the other side, the Five Star Sect seats that were filled with an aura of majesty seemed to flinch. Even so, dissatisfaction was clearly visible in their eyes. Everyone there was angry, though restrained themselves very well."Should I go forward?" Zhou Wen, the young genius of the Blue Sky Sect, asked quietly to his Sect Leader, Liang Tiancheng. The look in his eyes signaled his readiness to act."No need," Liang Tiancheng replied, his voice firm. "There are still four other Five Star Sects ranked below you. Stay in your seat, show your attitude as a supreme power holder."Zhou Wen nodded, accepting the order with humility. Although his desire to advance was strong, he still respected his leader's decision.With thi
Ten Minutes to Triumph.
"Look, Li Yong from Xuehua Academy. Are you going to face me with the Sacred Heart Sword move?" asked Bao Xuan in a calm tone, yet there was a mocking tone in it.He fanned his sweaty body, his face showing a hint of fatigue from the previous fight.The presence of the two geniuses of the Five Star Sect was indeed quite draining for Bao Xuan, although he still tried to maintain his imperious appearance.Then, Bao Xuan clapped loudly, and suddenly a man emerged from the crowd. The man looked unknown, but he was carrying a bottle of water and a pill. The imperial officials standing around the stage allowed the man to approach Bao Xuan without hindrance.With a sly smile that expressed satisfaction, Bao Xuan accepted the drink and pills. After taking a sip, he calmly said to Li Yong,"Is Young Swordsman Li Yong willing to give me ten minutes to recover energy? Isn't it tantamount to cheating if you win a fight without giving your opponent a chance to recover after fighting twice in a row
Fan and Shadow Clash.
All eyes were fixed on the stage as the excitement grew.The screeching sound of the demon skull's claws caused a strong wind to whip up, adding to the tension in the air.White smoke billowed out with a choking tension, covering the battle area like an icy fog covering a frozen landscape.Amidst the mist, there was no sound of Bao Xuan howling in pain, as if he was untouched by Wei Qiang's attack.The silence added to the anxiety in the hearts of the audience, making them wonder:"Is Bao Xuan really that tough? Even Wei Qiang of the Black Shadow Sect couldn't defeat him in ten moves?""Let's hope that at the end of this attack, Wei Qiang will come out victorious!"The audience prayed silently, full of worry.Bao Xuan's extremely confident actions earlier had planted a seed of doubt in their minds. The roar of the crowd filled the air, adding to the tension and anticipation of the outcome of this fight.Just then, the cold winter wind blew, the white smoke from Wei Qiang's attack bega
Bao Xuan Sang Roque Cultivator.
The contest rules prohibiting a fight to the death no longer mattered to him. His resolve was made—if necessary, he would drag Bao Xuan into the abyss of death together."In that case, prepare to die!" shouted Jiang Hui, his voice echoing, shaking the arena filled with spectators. His sword flashed, slashing through the air with unimaginable speed, as if about to split the sky.In an instant, a sword beam emitting silver light spread across the entire stage, forming a powerful vortex of energy. Snow flakes flew out, blown by the sharp gusts of wind caused by his sword movements, creating the illusion of a blizzard enveloping the entire arena.However, as the sword light and snow flakes faded, and the rumbling sound that resembled crashing waves subsided, Bao Xuan was still standing tall in the center of the stage.His body did not flinch in the slightest. His face remained calm, even looking a little bored. His handsome face exuded a haughty air, while the faint smile that graced his
The Meeting of Dragons Begins – Part II.
If only there wasn't a rule prohibiting the Five Star Sect from competing with the Four Star Sect, the geniuses of the Five Star Sect might have already stepped onto the stage to humiliate Jiang Hui who was now standing arrogantly before everyone.When everyone was almost certain that Jiang Hui would win the Dragon Meeting for geniuses of the Four Star Sect, suddenly a shadowy figure flashed at an incredible speed, difficult for ordinary eyes to follow.In an instant, a young man was standing on the stage, stealing the show with his striking appearance.The young man looked like a descendant of nobility, no more than twenty years old. He wore a soft blue tunic with intricate patterns, showing his status and wealth. The long jacket that covered his heels was made of selected silk, flowing gracefully in the cold winter wind, adding a sense of elegance to his figure.His face was handsome, but a sardonic smile was clearly etched on his lips. He wore the typical skullcap of an imperial of
The Meeting of Dragons Begins.
As they spoke, the crowd around them intensified, and the sound of the gong resounding three times signaled that the "Meeting of Dragons" event was about to begin."The Dragon Meeting is about to begin!" whispered Ouyang Fai enthusiastically, his voice almost drowned out by the noise.Amidst the hustle and bustle, the sound of heavy, echoing horse hooves began to sound from the direction of the imperial palace. The sound grew closer, distracting everyone's attention.When the anticipated figure appeared, there was a moment of silence, only to be broken by the crowd's amazement.A war knight clad in silver armor, which shone in the sunlight, appeared gallantly on a pure white horse like snow.The horse's steps were slow but steady, adding an aura of majesty to the scene. The horse, more surprisingly, had wide wings that looked shiny, adding a magical and mysterious feel to the whole appearance."Suiji Ma!" "Sembrani Horse!" shouted several people in the crowd, their voices full of admi
Surprise after surprise.
Eadric Rong watched the man standing in the center of the crowd with a sharp gaze. The man looked majestic and imposing, surrounded by Golden Sword Sect disciples marching in a respectful manner.Amidst the echoing cheers and shouts from the audience, Eadric Rong remained calm, unperturbed by the crowd around him. The sounds of applause and cheers praising the Golden Sword Sect blended together, creating a very festive atmosphere on the field."Is he the so-called Leader Shen Yutian, the leader of the Golden Sword Sect?" asked Eadric Rong inwardly, his sharp eyes scrutinizing every detail of the man's appearance curiously.Shen Yutian stood in an authoritative manner among his disciples, wearing robes that seemed to glow with a golden color under the light of the crescent moon.The robe, though similar in design to the Taoist Priest's clothing, was made of fine silk that drifted gently around his body, adding a sense of luxury.His hair was neatly combed up, forming a bun that was hel
Arrival of Invited Guests.
In the invited guests' quarters of the Jin Shuang Imperial court, the atmosphere was suddenly tense as the Black Shadow Sect Leader, Gong Fang, appeared. The oppressive aura he spread pervaded the air, making everyone present feel a tense pressure.Everyone's gaze was instantly lowered, crushed by his dominant presence.However, the oppressive aura soon faded.Suddenly, a well-dressed man in a dark blue velvet robe appeared with a confident stride."Xue Hua Academy," "Isn't that martial arts academy leader Xue Hua?"Whispers ensued, and all the spotlight instantly moved to the newly arrived figure, who was called from Xue Hua Academy.Apparently, the appearance of this newly arrived figure, although not much different in age from Gong Fang, but his young-looking face, like a young man in his twenties, exudes an alluring charisma.His dramatic appearance caught everyone's attention.As a newcomer to the Jin Shuang Empire, Eadric Rong was clearly confused by the names of the night's cel
Arriving at Capital.
Eadric Rong made the long journey on foot to Xuefeng Du Town, spending nearly two months on the winding, challenging roads.He deliberately chose the grueling overland journey, using every opportunity to practice the Ferris Wheel Sword Art and meditate in an attempt to break through to the Golden Lotus Swordsman level.However, no matter how hard he tried, every attempt ended in vain, as if there was an invisible wall blocking his progress."I really need to get Zhen Long Pills to break through to the Golden Lotus Swordsman level," Eadric Rong muttered to himself as he stood before the East gate of Xuefeng Du City.The towering city fortress, painted in a faded gray-white color, stood firmly in front of him. The road above the fort was lined with soldiers on patrol, creating a haunting atmosphere but at the same time providing a sense of security for the townspeople.One of the soldiers guarding the entrance, a man with a hard face and a sharp gaze, glanced at Eadric Rong."Daozhang,
