Chapter 872

~7 min read 1,382 words

She had already understood that the legendary number one taboo of the Nine Continents, Longshouxi Sect Ximen Wudi—even in her own world, whose name faintly reached her ears—

was truly extraordinary and beyond her ability to compare.

Therefore, no matter how unwilling she felt in her heart, at this moment she had no temper left.

"Mm! It's fine."

After replying indifferently, Wu Zhao prepared to follow the crowd and enter the Divine Armory Hall with Di Shitian.

Sikong Yuchi Zhen breathed a sigh of relief, since the Empress Your Majesty had said it was fine.

Whether sincere or not, at least on the surface this matter had been explained away.

In any case, he had never done anything that let down Great Tang.

The Qinglong Society missions he completed were mostly ones that avoided Great Tang.

"This young brother Sikong Yuchi, what divine weapon is in your hand?"

Just as the crowd brushed past Sikong Yuchi Zhen, Lord Qiye could no longer hold back his curiosity and asked anyway.

"Uh! This is the Five Thunder Resonance Drum, a immortal-grade divine weapon.

This drum can coordinate with my own true essence to draw in more of heaven and earth's Lei Ting.

Speaking of it, it can't be considered any remarkable divine weapon, it just happens to suit me."

Sikong Yuchi Zhen actually also knew Lord Qiye's appearance, and recognized him at a glance.

Although the immortal-grade divine weapon was in his hand, he stated it openly and at ease.

"What? This isn't a remarkable divine weapon? Sikong Yuchi, don't let the wind flash your tongue!"

Chahetai heard this and felt Sikong Yuchi Zhen was showing off a bit.

Not to mention whether you, Sikong Yuchi Zhen, are really a double-dealer or not, but you brandishing an immortal-grade divine weapon—

is it that Great Tang is too wealthy, or that the Qinglong Society is too generous?

"Uh? Who is this?"

Sikong Yuchi Zhen could recognize Lord Qiye because, besides being a man of striking appearance, he had once made a high-profile appearance at Beizhen and spoken directly with the Fourth Longshouxi Sect.

Among the upper echelons and outstanding talents of the various factions, how many would not recognize him?

But who was Chahetai?

Just the Third Prince of the Great Yuan!

When Tie Muzhen was alive, he might have been swaggering about in Great Yuan.

But placed in the Nine Continents, most people, apart from knowing that Prince Tuo Lei who made it onto the Heavenly Dao Golden List—

probably only learned of the new Great Khan, Wokuotai, because of his ascension to the Khan's throne.

Chahetai, being asked like this by him, immediately felt his face greatly diminished.

If Sikong Yuchi Zhen were merely a man of Great Tang, even a rising star of the military, Chahetai would have had to start a quarrel.

But now Sikong Yuchi Zhen was already a man of the Qinglong Society, and not an ordinary member at that.

Therefore, being choked up like this by Sikong Yuchi Zhen, Chahetai not only lost face completely, but also didn't know how to reply.

It was still Emperor Wenlong who was kind-hearted; after a great laugh, he explained a bit,

"This gentleman is the Third Prince of Great Yuan, Sikong Yuchi, you must remember him!"

Sikong Yuchi Zhen is now a rising star of the Great Tang military; in the future, he will inevitably face Great Yuan.

Hearing Emperor Wenlong's reminder, Sikong Yuchi Zhen finally understood.

He gave Chahetai a rather playful look, then said calmly,

"An immortal-grade divine weapon, in other places, might be a fine thing.

But in the Qinglong Society, sigh…"

As he spoke, he glanced back at the Divine Armory Hall behind him; the meaning was self-evident.

Hearing this, the crowd couldn't help but become even more curious.

After all, even a single Five Thunder Resonance Drum could move Lord Qiye.

But by Sikong Yuchi Zhen's meaning, the Divine Armory Hall was not lacking in immortal-grade divine weapons.

Yet why was it that among the Qinglong Society members going in and out, almost no one carried an immortal-grade divine weapon?

Amid their doubts, the crowd followed Di Shitian and entered the Divine Armory Hall.

In the first hall, all manner of divine weapons and sharp blades were displayed in dazzling array.

Above these divine weapons, flowing light and radiant colors swirled, their auras responding to one another.

Even though the crowd came from the top factions of the various Nine Continents, they were nearly dazzled to the point of being unable to keep their eyes open.

A full hall of divine weapons—the visual impact was terrifyingly intense!

"Eh? Why are they all earth-grade divine weapons, not a single heaven-grade one?"

The crowd was first utterly shocked, then upon careful observation, finally discovered that among these many divine weapons, not a single one was heaven-grade.

Although this full hall of divine weapons numbered no less than a thousand or more pieces.

Yet they were all earth-grade divine weapons!

Placed in the various major factions, although not commonly seen, they were not something they couldn't produce.

But this place is the Qinglong Peak of the Qinglong Society, the Divine Armory Hall that displays divine weapons, alright?

"This is only the first hall; isn't it perfectly normal to display earth-grade divine weapons?

Moreover, how many people have you seen?"

Emperor Wenlong, on the contrary, was not surprised in the slightest, and said casually.

Only then did the crowd come to a sudden realization.

As agreed, there were four grades of treasures: Divine, Immortal, Heaven, and Earth.

Starting from Earth-grade is only fitting.

It's just that everyone here came from the great factions — who would want to look at Earth-grade divine weapons!

They immediately followed Seeing Di Shitian, continuing onward toward the second tier of halls.

The journey from the first tier of halls to the second was such that, even without using Wu Gong, simply walking slowly behind Di Shitian, everyone still needed the time of one incense stick to make the trip.

Upon reaching the second tier of halls, they indeed saw a steady stream of people before them, with quite a few Qinglong Society members in blue robes going in and out.

The Heaven-grade Divine Weapon Hall seemed to have arrived!

674 — I really envy them!

Sure enough, the moment they stepped into this second tier of halls—

A dense wave of spiritual energy rushed toward them.

Even though everyone present was almost an upper-level figure of the great factions, they all felt this spiritual energy so thick it was suffocating.

The four great grades of divine weapons: Heaven, Earth, Mystic, and Yellow.

The differences among them could truly be called wondrous.

Take the lowest-grade Yellow divine weapons, for instance. Though called the lowest grade, in reality many famous treasures in the jianghu belong to this grade.

One of the great treasures of the Five Poisons Sect — the Golden Serpent Sword.

The great treasures of Huashan Sect — the Yangwu and Xiyi twin swords.

Even the Zhenwu Sword, once worn by Zhang Sanfeng.

These are almost all Yellow-grade divine weapons.

The so-called Yellow-grade divine weapons are also called sharp divine weapons, precisely because these weapons are mostly renowned for their unique sharpness.

A martial artist wielding the sharpness of a Yellow-grade divine weapon can, generally speaking, triumph over any opponent no more than a minor realm above them.

With Mystic-grade divine weapons, a touch of the wondrous is added.

This is because Mystic-grade divine weapons choose their own master.

If one's Wu Gong, temperament, and so on align with the Mystic-grade divine weapon—

Then the two combined produce remarkable power, allowing one to challenge opponents at least two minor realms above.

Conversely, if the Mystic-grade divine weapon one holds does not suit oneself, it becomes a great burden instead.

With Earth-grade divine weapons, it goes yet a step further.

This is because Earth-grade divine weapons can resonate with the martial artist themselves.

Ordinarily, the martial artist stores their true qi and true essence within the Earth-grade divine weapon, using it to nurture it.

When battle comes, not only does it move like an extension of one's arm, it can also continuously answer and echo its wielder.

And finally, there are these Heaven-grade divine weapons!
