Chapter 301

The man's words made Chen Hao pause slightly.

His goal was the Innate Sword Embryo in his hand.

He didn't expect that after getting the Innate Sword Embryo, he could still choose one more item.

Since someone wanted to give him something, Chen Hao naturally wouldn't refuse.

He turned his head to look at Xiao Wu and said, "Xiao Wu, have you decided what you want?"

Upon hearing this, Xiao Wu shook her head.

"There are too many things here, I'm dazzled."

"How about this, Teacher Chen Hao, you help me choose."

Upon hearing this, Chen Hao said, "Okay, I'll help you take a look."

Chen Hao possessed the [Eye of True Sight], which could see through the attributes of items.

"This is..."

A pot caught Chen Hao's attention.

The surface of this pot was carved with a clown's face.

"Xiao Wu, you choose this one."

Upon hearing this, Xiao Wu frowned.

Although she was somewhat puzzled, since Chen Hao let her choose it.

Xiao Wu naturally chose it directly.

Chen Hao's actions caught the man's attention.

"That is... the Qi-Gathering Pot."

"What does this kid want with the Qi-Gathering Pot?"

The Qi-Gathering Pot, as the name suggests, can collect human Qi.

The man couldn't understand, so he simply stopped thinking about it.

Xiao Wu got the Qi-Gathering Pot, as for Chen Hao.

He began to walk around the treasury again.

Although there were many treasures here, most of them were chicken ribs to Chen Hao.

"This is..."

Chen Hao discovered a book.

He walked toward that book.

"Basic Sword Art?"

Chen Hao flipped through it a few times and found that this book was very thin.

The things recorded inside were also very few.

Seeing this, the man walked over.

"I suggest you change to another item."

The man said to Chen Hao.

"Why?"

"Do you know whose book this is?"

"Whose?"

"The Evil Sword Immortal's."

"Evil Sword Immortal?"

Upon hearing this, Chen Hao frowned; it was his first time hearing this name.

"It's normal for you to look like this."

"Because the Evil Sword Immortal is no longer in this world."

"He died? He wouldn't have died at Long Zhantian's hands, would he?"

Facing Chen Hao's inquiry, the man paused slightly.

Then he smiled and said, "No wonder they said you are very smart; now it seems that what they said is true!"

"But I'll warn you, don't be too smart for your own good."

"Our big leader Long doesn't like others talking about the Evil Sword Immortal in front of him."

"Why? You wouldn't tell me that the Evil Sword Immortal snatched Long Zhantian's woman, would you?"

"You..."

The man was startled and looked around in terror.

After discovering no one was there, the man breathed a sigh of relief.

He was afraid that Long Zhantian would appear suddenly, or that someone would pass these words into Long Zhantian's ears.

Why had Chen Hao never heard news of the Evil Sword Immortal?

That was because everyone kept their mouths shut about the Evil Sword Immortal, and information about him was kept strictly confidential.

"Are you sure you want to choose this?"

Originally, the man felt Chen Hao was quite good.

But after these few sentences, the man discovered that Chen Hao was a dangerous person.

Following him, one would sooner or later be implicated.

"Hmm, that's it."

"Alright, since you've finished choosing, let's go."

The man took Chen Hao and Xiao Wu away from the treasury.

Chen Hao and Xiao Wu took their items and went to find Li Fengjiao.

As for the man, he went back to report.

...Long Zhantian was correcting documents at the table.

The man's arrival made his brows lift slightly.

"Tell me, what did they choose?"

Upon hearing this, the man naturally said respectfully, "Xiao Wu chose the Qi-Gathering Pot."

"As for Chen Hao, he chose..."

The man hesitated when he reached this point.

"Chose what? Just say it directly, I won't be angry."

"He chose the Evil Sword Immortal's 'Basic Sword Art'."

"What?"

Upon hearing this, Long Zhantian's brows furrowed.

The Evil Sword Immortal's "Basic Sword Art" was something he had casually placed in the treasury.

Back then, he killed the Evil Sword Immortal and obtained the cultivation technique on him.

He had thought this "Basic Sword Art" was some treasure, but it turned out to be a piece of junk that couldn't be more basic.

"If he wants it, give it to him."

Long Zhantian felt that with his own intelligence, he couldn't see anything in this "Basic Sword Art."

It was even more impossible for Chen Hao.

In his view, that "Basic Sword Art" was like a multiplication table placed in front of a college student.

Which college student would be interested in a multiplication table?

Chen Hao brought the Innate Sword Embryo to find Li Fengjiao.

"Did you get the item?"

Upon hearing this, Chen Hao nodded.

"Very good, then follow me."

Under Li Fengjiao's guidance, Chen Hao and Xiao Wu arrived at a canyon.

Not far from the canyon, a waterfall poured down.

Beside the waterfall was a row of bamboo houses.

Li Fengjiao smiled and said, "This is my home, it's a bit simple, don't mind it."

"No, I think it's quite good."

"The mountains and rivers are beautiful here, it's simply a fairyland on earth."

Chen Hao said with a smile.

"I thought you young people all liked excitement, it seems you are different from them."

"Alright, no time to lose, take out the Innate Sword Embryo."

Upon hearing this, Chen Hao took out the Innate Sword Embryo.

After Li Fengjiao took it, his brows furrowed slightly.

Because this Innate Sword Embryo was truly too dirty.

"Follow me."

Li Fengjiao brought Chen Hao into a room.

This was a pharmacy.

Li Fengjiao began to grab medicinal materials from the shelf on the side, then threw them all into the bathtub on the side.

Then he said to Chen Hao, "Take off your clothes and get in."

Upon hearing this, Chen Hao was somewhat confused.

"I told you to get in, so get in; would I harm you?"

Chen Hao possessed the Eye of True Sight, he could see through people's hearts.

Naturally, he knew Li Fengjiao didn't want to harm him, but wanted to help him.

"Xiao Wu, you go outside for a bit."

"Okay."

Xiao Wu left.

Seeing Xiao Wu leave, Chen Hao took off his clothes and jumped into the bathtub.

Seeing this, Li Fengjiao smiled and said, "I didn't expect you kid to have such a good build, quite like my style back then."

As he spoke, Li Fengjiao began to circulate his cultivation technique.

Under Li Fengjiao's refining, the Innate Sword Embryo began to turn into liquid.

Then it fused into the bathtub.

Chen Hao originally felt nothing.

Gradually, he felt a wave of pain.

This feeling was like taking off his clothes and rolling in a pile of broken glass.

"Ah~!"

He screamed in pain, subconsciously wanting to stand up.

As a result, Li Fengjiao pressed his body down.

"Kid, one must suffer the bitterest of the bitter to become the master of masters!"

"If you want an Innate Sword Body, you must endure this pain of body tempering."

"Go to hell."

Chen Hao was particularly angry; he possessed the Corpse-Collecting System and didn't need any Innate Sword Body at all.

If he had known this thing was so painful, he would never have agreed to do this.

Unfortunately.

This was like doing something happy; since it had started, it couldn't stop.

Otherwise, the previous pain would have been suffered in vain.

"Kid, endure it a bit, it hurts at first, but later you'll adapt and it will be fine."
