Chapter 1651

"Of course, if you lose, the Master of Wan Jian Pavilion will send someone to find you and punish you!"

"If you're willing, you can go to Lingyuan Academy anytime."

Li Yan continued to persuade.

Ximen Wudi thought for a moment, then said: "Alright, since you have this intention, I accept."

"Hah! Brother Ximen Wudi, you finally agreed!"

Li Yan laughed loudly.

Then he left Ximen Wudi's residence.

"Dingdong, congratulations to the host for breaking through to the sixth stage of the Chaos Scripture!"

"Dingdong, congratulations to the host for obtaining one hundred middle-grade Xuan Crystals and one high-grade Xuan Crystal!"

"Dingdong, congratulations to the host for breaking through to the fourth layer of True Qi Realm!"

The system's voice rang out.

Having broken through to the fourth layer of True Qi Realm, Ximen Wudi's physical strength had become much stronger than before.

Now, even ordinary middle-grade Xuan Weapons could hardly harm Ximen Wudi's body.

"These Xuan Crystals and some Xuan Weapons are enough to exchange for quite a few things."

Ximen Wudi thought to himself.

When he previously trained the Chaos Scripture, he consumed most of his Xuan Crystals, leaving only two or three hundred, enough to support purchasing pills, martial techniques, runes, and other items.

Ximen Wudi walked into the room, picked up the Xuan Crystals, and began exchanging them for Xuan Artifacts.

One hundred Xuan Crystals took Ximen Wudi three full hours to fully exchange for Xuan Artifacts, runes, and other items!

However, aside from Xuan Weapons, Xuan Crystals could not be exchanged for much else.

Still, Ximen Wudi purchased ten Peiyuan Pills and one Juling Pill.

After all, he had just broken through to the fourth layer of True Qi Realm; without pill assistance, his foundation might be damaged.

Moreover, Ximen Wudi was preparing to break through to True Qi Ninth Layer and needed pills to stabilize his foundation.

Of course, Ximen Wudi did not choose to consume the pills, since he had not yet reached the point of breaking through to True Qi Ninth Layer—he still needed to force it himself!

"Hm?"

"Huh?"

After converting all his accumulated items into Xuan Crystals, Ximen Wudi suddenly noticed something new in his storage ring.

"What is this?"

Ximen Wudi pulled out the item.

"Dingdong, congratulations to the host for discovering the Xuan-grade treasure Golden Thunder Arrow!"

"Dingdong, congratulations to the host for discovering the Xuan-grade treasure Thunder Bow!"

"Dingdong, congratulations to the host for discovering the Xuan-grade treasure Lei Ting Arrow!"

…

It was a pitch-black long arrow, three feet in length, its body as dark as ink, flickering with purple lightning arcs!

Ximen Wudi placed the arrow into his storage ring and finally sighed in relief.

He had previously worried whether there were Xuan Beasts or demonic beasts inside the storage ring; he never expected it to contain an arrow!

Ximen Wudi examined closely—it was a longbow forged from metal!

"Not bad! It's an Xuan-grade treasure. Looks like the Master of Wan Jian Pavilion is quite generous!"

Ximen Wudi smiled broadly.

Although the Lei Ting Arrow was not a top-tier Xuan Artifact, its power was extremely strong!

Ximen Wudi's current physical strength could easily tear through steel.

The Lei Ting Arrow was perfectly suited for Ximen Wudi!

Moreover, the Lei Ting Arrow itself could be used as a flying weapon!

"Dingdong, does the host wish to use this Xuan-grade Lei Ting Arrow?"

"Confirm!"

"Dingdong, the host consumes 100 Xuan Crystals. Confirm use?"

"Confirm!"

"Dingdong, please use the Lei Ting Arrow promptly!"

"Dingdong, please use the Lei Ting Arrow as soon as possible!"

As Ximen Wudi spoke, the Lei Ting Arrow shimmered with waves of silvery-white light.

This was the manifestation of Lei Ting energy condensed to a critical point.

Ximen Wudi gripped the Lei Ting Arrow in his right hand and felt a peculiar vibration, like a flame leaping.

Then, Ximen Wudi infused his spiritual force into the Lei Ting Arrow and began to control it.

"Shhh!"

A piercing sound of tearing air rang out.

The Lei Ting Arrow became a streak of light, shooting straight toward the heavens!

"Hm? What's going on?"

Suddenly, a deep, gloomy voice echoed from deep within Ximen Wudi's mind.

It was a man's voice!

"Who are you?"

Ximen Wudi was startled and hurriedly recalled the Lei Ting arrow.

"It's me, Li Yan!"

"Junior Brother Ximen, did something happen?"

Li Yan asked hurriedly.

Ximen Wudi nodded and said, "Someone just tried to ambush me!"

Hearing this, Li Yan's face instantly darkened, and a flash of killing intent swept through his eyes.

"Which damned thief dares to lay a hand on Junior Brother Ximen — he simply doesn't know what's good for him!"

Li Yan cursed angrily.

Ximen Wudi shook his head and said, "Forget it, Brother Li need not worry. That person has already been killed by me!"

Hearing these words, Li Yan's face finally showed a look of relief, and he hurriedly said, "As long as Junior Brother Ximen is fine, that's all that matters. Leave this small matter to me!"

With that, Li Yan turned and left.

Watching Li Yan's hurried back, Ximen Wudi shook his head slightly.

Li Yan was honest and straightforward — a bit foolish, perhaps, but still a friend worth making.

Not long after, a horse carriage rolled into Wan Jian Pavilion.

"This is Wan Jian Pavilion?"

When the carriage stopped at the gate, Ximen Wudi could not help but exclaim in admiration.

This Wan Jian Pavilion was built within a mountain valley, occupying a stretch of land, surrounded by lush green trees and a lake.

At this moment, inside the great hall of Wan Jian Pavilion, a group of Wan Jian Pavilion disciples stood in two rows along the sides.

Above the great hall, a middle-aged man in a blue-green robe sat in a chair, his face dark and grim.

"Damned Ximen Wudi!"

"An ignorant fool who doesn't know the immensity of heaven and earth — he actually dares to offend me!"

"I want to see just where he can run off to!"

The middle-aged man gnashed his teeth, wishing he could eat Ximen Wudi's flesh and drink his blood!

"Pavilion Master, the prodigies our Wan Jian Pavilion invited have all been arriving one after another. When shall we hold the grand ceremony within the pavilion?"

An elder stepped forward.
