Chapter 560: Mysterious Heaven Spirit Treasure

From the look of surprise in Chen Shuang'er's eyes, it was not hard for Zhang Nuo to see the extraordinary nature of the blood-colored long sword on the wall! The sword was about three feet long and entirely blood-red; a faint red light shrouded the entire blade, giving off an intimidating aura that made one afraid to approach!

"I imagine Brother Zhang has also noticed the difference in this sword! It is recorded in the Jade Slip that this sword is named: Red Blood Demon Sword, one of the Magic Treasures once used by that True Immortal. And that wooden-attribute long staff is named the Infinite Staff; its power is also not to be underestimated!"

Turning her head, the young girl looked at the golden armor on the other wall and continued:

"This set of armor is named 'Heavenly Demon God Armor,' and its terrifying defensive power is also mentioned in the Jade Slip!"

Zhang Nuo noted down the names of these three Magic Treasures one by one, but he did not dare to look too much, fearing the young girl might develop any suspicions!

"Are these three all Mysterious Heaven Spirit Treasures?"

From the patterns painted on the walls of the Cave Abode's main hall, Zhang Nuo knew that the items inside this cave-within-a-cave were all things used by a True Immortal, and as for these three Magic Treasures, they were the most important of all!

"Correct! That is indeed what the Jade Slip says! All three are Mysterious Heaven Spirit Treasures!"

Chen Shuang'er did not hide it either; after all, even if she did not say it, Zhang Nuo would eventually figure it out, so it was better to be frank!

"Except for the Infinite Staff, the Red Blood Demon Sword and the Heavenly Demon God Armor both possess a certain demonic nature and must be tamed before they can be used! Shuang'er has always cultivated the True Spirit Bloodline and has not dabbled in Demonic Arts, so I will gift these two Magic Treasures to Brother Zhang. What do you think?"

Upon first hearing the young girl's words, Zhang Nuo thought he had misheard. Looking at the smiling Chen Shuang'er, he was stunned in place for a moment!

He truly had not expected the young girl to offer two Mysterious Heaven Spirit Treasures right off the bat. Such treasures, if encountered in the outside world, would have everyone fighting tooth and nail to snatch them; who would ever hand them over willingly?

In truth, the young girl had her own plans. Not to mention that the Magic Treasure used to open the cave-within-a-cave belonged to Zhang Nuo, if the other party truly coveted the treasures, with his powerful divine abilities, he could easily kill her here. It was better to do Zhang Nuo a favor in advance and appear generous!

At this moment, Zhang Nuo had no time to consider what the young girl was thinking. He walked straight up to the 'Red Blood Demon Sword,' lifted his palm slightly, and grasped the hilt!

Suddenly, the long sword let out a low roar, and at the same time, a surge of blood-colored energy erupted from the surface of the blade, instantly surrounding Zhang Nuo's body. Within the churning blood-red light, waves of yin energy emerged, as if something were probing Zhang Nuo's body!

Startled, Zhang Nuo focused his mind, closed his eyes quickly, and circulated his Inner Scene Art several times in succession, which finally eased his state of mind! He hurriedly released his grip on the hilt! After retreating several steps, he looked at the blood-colored long sword with a grim and uncertain expression!

At the same time, the red light on the long sword faded, returning to its original state. Caught off guard just now, Zhang Nuo had almost suffered a great loss. This sword seemed to possess an extremely powerful, innate demonic nature; the moment his palm touched the blade, his state of mind became irritable and restless, and he nearly went mad!

"Brother Zhang!"

Seeing such a bizarre event, Chen Shuang'er exclaimed and quickly ran to Zhang Nuo's side!

"It seems the things of a True Immortal are indeed quite extraordinary! The demonic nature on this sword is too great. May I borrow the Jade Slip to take a look?"

Zhang Nuo said with a bitter smile. Chen Shuang'er had already gifted this Mysterious Heaven Spirit Treasure to him, but unexpectedly, a snag had occurred. Seeing a Magic Treasure but being unable to take it felt like a starving person seeing piping hot food they couldn't eat! Glancing at the Jade Slip in Chen Shuang'er's hand, Zhang Nuo wanted to find some clues within it!

The young girl did not begrudge it and handed the Jade Slip directly to Zhang Nuo! After sinking his Divine Sense into it and withdrawing it a moment later, his brows furrowed slightly, and Zhang Nuo became even more distressed. The Jade Slip contained no record of how to tame the 'Red Blood Demon Sword'; it simply introduced the three Mysterious Heaven Spirit Treasures here!

Just as the young girl had said, except for the Infinite Staff, the remaining two Magic Treasures were both imbued with different demonic natures. It seemed the word 'Demon' in the names of the Magic Treasures was not for nothing!

Turning his body, Zhang Nuo walked toward the 'Heavenly Demon God Armor' on another stone wall. Arriving before it, he pressed one hand lightly onto the armor. Immediately, the armor flashed with golden light, instantly rebounding him away!

"Fairy Shuang'er, it seems these two items will require some effort from me to handle!"

Glancing at the young girl standing to the side, Zhang Nuo shook his head with a bitter smile.

"Since it is just the two of us here, Brother Zhang has plenty of time! There is no need to rush. Why not study the contents of this Jade Slip and the Storage Bag first?"

At this moment, it was unclear whether Chen Shuang'er was happy or feeling pity for Zhang Nuo; there was an inscrutable expression on her face!

The two returned to the front of the table. Seeing a few more Jade Slips on the table, the young girl grabbed one and sank her Divine Sense into it again!

About several hours later, when she had finished reading all the Jade Slips, the excitement on her face was gone. Although the cultivation techniques recorded in these Jade Slips were of immense power, given her current cultivation level, they were impossible to practice; one would at least need to enter the Integration Stage!

"It seems our cultivation is still too low; we must seize the time to improve our cultivation!"

The young girl straightened her face and said with great solemnity.

"The items of a True Immortal indeed hold other mysteries. With our low cultivation, even if we obtain them, it is all in vain!"

Zhang Nuo also sighed. Although he had not read the contents of the Jade Slips, it was not hard to see from Chen Shuang'er's expression that these techniques were not as simple as imagined.

Finally, the young girl picked up the Storage Bag from the table. After opening the bag and scanning it with her Divine Sense, she found only a few Talismans of not-insignificant power and a large pile of High-grade Spirit Stones!

Casually tossing the Storage Bag onto the table, Chen Shuang'er walked out of the cave-within-a-cave feeling dispirited. Zhang Nuo followed her out, and the two returned to the main hall, both lost in deep thought!

Although the things were good, their cultivation was insufficient to take them. Even if Chen Shuang'er were willing to gift the Red Blood Demon Sword and the Heavenly Demon God Armor to Zhang Nuo, with Zhang Nuo's current divine abilities, he was simply unable to resist the powerful demonic nature of these two Magic Treasures! As for the Infinite Staff, the young girl had never mentioned gifting it to him, so he dismissed the idea of taking it by force!

If Zhang Nuo were to forcibly kill the young girl here and claim all the treasures and techniques for himself, it was not impossible. However, this Tianfa Forest was very bizarre; if not for the young girl leading the way, Zhang Nuo feared he would never be able to leave for the rest of his life. Based on these reasons, even if he wanted to act, he had to consider the consequences!

"Brother Zhang, it seems we have no other choice! We can only cultivate diligently!"

The sharp light in Chen Shuang'er's eyes vanished instantly. For her, bitter cultivation was the very purpose of this trip; after going in a big circle, she had returned to the starting point!

"Since that is the case, then I shall go and cultivate as well!"

Zhang Nuo did not think too much about it. In any case, improving one's cultivation was a hard truth at any time. Even if it weren't for those two Magic Treasures, he would still cultivate!

Turning and entering a Stone Chamber, Zhang Nuo left the main cultivation spot in the hall to Chen Shuang'er. Once the stone door closed, Zhang Nuo did not come out again! The young girl glanced at his retreating back, not knowing what she was thinking, and slowly closed her eyes as well!

Two months later, in the Stone Chamber where Zhang Nuo was located, Xuan Jin stood before him, a hint of joy appearing in his eyes that shimmered with a metallic luster!

On one of Xuan Jin's palms, a dense mass of beetle-like creatures was crawling; these were the hatched 'Hidden Wing Blood-Eating Insects'!

After more than ten years, Xuan Jin had finally forcibly triggered the insect egg bought at the auction. These 'Hidden Wing Blood-Eating Insects' were the size of sesame seeds, entirely red, with exceptionally shiny shells on their backs, and their mouths were thin needles half the length of their bodies! Just like a mosquito's mouth!

'Buzz'!

A light hum came, and a 'Hidden Wing Blood-Eating Insect' flew into mid-air. One could see its two red shells open, but the wings flapping underneath were completely invisible to the naked eye!

"Master! This type of Mysterious Heaven grade Spirit Insect is named as such because the frequency of its wing flapping is too fast, making the wings invisible to the naked eye!"

Xuan Jin explained from the side. Zhang Nuo, feeling quite curious, reached out and made a grasping motion in the void toward the 'Hidden Wing Blood-Eating Insect' in mid-air. Instantly, the flying Spirit Insect was captured into his palm!

The little fellow was unhappy about being interrupted in its flight, emitting a continuous buzzing sound from its mouth, and bit down on Zhang Nuo's palm with its needle-like long mouth!

At first, Zhang Nuo did not pay much attention; it was just a newly hatched Spirit Insect, could it really pose a threat to his physical body?

But the scene that followed shocked him greatly. The little thing's long mouth pierced straight into his flesh and, with a single suck, began devouring the vital blood within his body!

This shock was no small matter. How powerful was Zhang Nuo's physical body? Even an ordinary Magic Treasure striking it would likely cause no damage, yet it had been pierced by such a tiny 'Hidden Wing Blood-Eating Insect'!

As the vital blood was sucked in, a red halo appeared on the surface of the insect's body. In an instant, Zhang Nuo felt the vital blood in his body draining rapidly. He shook his palm quickly and flung the 'Hidden Wing Blood-Eating Insect' away!

His gaze turned cold. This was just the power of a single 'Hidden Wing Blood-Eating Insect,' but right now, on Xuan Jin's hand, there were thousands of these insects. It was truly unimaginable what the result would be if all these insects were to act upon his own body!
