The First Marquis of Daxuan

"good idea!"

Du Rongcheng said excitedly, "The Seven Emotions and Six Desires Disperse can drive the strange beasts of the Heavenly Net Umbrella into a frenzy. At that time, they will not be able to distinguish friend from foe, and they might bite Su Mu to death."

Du Rongcheng was eager to use this method on Su Mu immediately.

"You're so clever, how come I didn't think of that idea?"

Du Rongcheng said regretfully, "It's all because I had too many things on my hands, and I didn't think of the Seven Emotions and Six Desires Dispersal for a moment."

Liu Rufeng: "..."

If you can't speak properly, then don't speak at all. What do you mean by saying you have too many things in your hands?

Are you looking down on us poor folks?

Liu Rufeng thought to himself, but said aloud, "It's unlikely that the beasts on the Heavenly Net Umbrella will bite Su Mu to death."

However, I only want to disable the Heavenly Net Umbrella in Su Mu's hand. As long as he can't use the Heavenly Net Umbrella, I can take care of him myself.

"Since we're going to use poison, let's go all out with something strong. I still have the Five Poisons Heavenly Heart Powder, which can definitely poison even a Heavenly Fate Realm expert!"

Du Rongcheng said excitedly, as if he had discovered a new world, rubbing his hands together, eager to try it out.

Liu Rufeng felt somewhat helpless. Using poison was simply not a respectable method. It was one thing to use the Seven Emotions and Six Desires to wreak havoc on the strange beasts on the Heavenly Net Umbrella, but if he directly poisoned Su Mu, how could he possibly seize the position of Yang Lord?

How could any martial artist in the world stand by and watch a despicable and shameless person sit on the throne of the Yang Master?

Some things can be done, but absolutely not in broad daylight.

Especially at this time.

Su Mu is no ordinary person; poisoning someone like him would have endless consequences.

Moreover, poison might not even be enough to kill Su Mu.

Du Rongcheng was unaware of this, but Liu Rufeng was well aware that Su Mu was a highly skilled alchemist, and such a person was also an expert in using poison.

Using poison on him in front of everyone might not only fail to cure Su Mu, but it would also make the world think that Liu Rufeng is a despicable person, which would be a loss for him.

but--

"Junior Brother Du, do you really have the Five Poisons Heavenly Heart Powder?"

Liu Rufeng no longer felt jealous.

I'm just too jealous to bear it.

Du Rongcheng has so many good qualities.

Five Poisons Heavenly Heart Powder is an extremely rare poison. As far as Liu Rufeng knows, it is extremely difficult to refine, and the cost of a single powder is as high as several hundred high-grade spirit stones.

This is the kind of good stuff that you can't buy even if you have money.

If you had one or two bottles on hand, they would certainly play an important role in crucial moments.

"Have."

Du Rongcheng said decisively, "Senior Brother Liu, you take it. I still think you can find an opportunity to poison Su Mu."

He casually tossed a bottle of Five Poisons Heavenly Heart Powder to Liu Rufeng, looking completely unconcerned.

What was precious to Liu Rufeng was worthless to Du Rongcheng.

While Liu Rufeng was overjoyed, he also felt somewhat helpless.

I've already tried my best, so why do I feel like the distance between me and some people is not only not getting closer, but actually getting further and further apart?
Fortunately, as long as I can become the Lord of Yang in this world, I will be in charge of this world from now on, and I will never go back to being the poor and destitute person I used to be.

Liu Rufeng secretly made up his mind that he must win, he absolutely could not lose!

…………

"Yes, that's the armor Liu Rufeng is wearing."

Cat Nine was describing the scene it had witnessed to Su Mu, while Su Mu was simulating the effects of using the Seven Absolute Dragon Scale Armor.

"This armor not only has amazing defensive capabilities, but it can also transform into a five-clawed golden dragon to break through my attacks and escape with Liu Rufeng."

"Cat Nine said."

As it spoke, it couldn't help but sharpen its claws on the stone.

The thought of a little guy at the Heavenly Fate Realm escaping its grasp made it wish it could do it all over again.

Previously, it was chased like a stray dog ​​by the powerful Celestial Venerable, but now that it is the Celestial Venerable, it can't even handle a little guy.

What is intolerable?

It's Cat Nine, and it wants to prove itself!

"I have to admit that I underestimated my opponent."

Mao Jiu said seriously, "If I had another chance, Liu Rufeng would never have been able to escape from me."

"I believe."

Su Mu nodded and said, "The armor is ultimately an external object. Liu Rufeng's true strength is still far behind yours."

Su Mu's face showed a thoughtful expression, "However, this armor is indeed interesting."

Based on Mao Jiu's description, Su Mu could almost deduce the power of the armor on Liu Rufeng's body.

The more Su Mu deduced, the more alarmed he became.

The art of weapon forging is profound and mysterious, and different weapon forgers have different areas of expertise.

Some weaponsmiths were skilled at forging knives, some at forging swords, and others at forging armor.

However, generally speaking, weapon forgers who are skilled in armor making are extremely rare.

Su Mu had roamed the world for many years and had seen countless weapon forgers, but in truth, he had never met a single weapon forger who was truly skilled in armor forging.

To be honest, he himself might be the most skilled armor forger in the mortal realm.

However, even he himself didn't have much experience in armor making.

In a sense, the craftsman who forged the armor Liu Rufeng was wearing was even more skilled than Su Mu in this regard.

“In terms of armor forging alone, I may have less experience than him.”

Su Mu was not an arrogant person, but he was also not self-deprecating. He slowly said, "However, in terms of weapon-making skills, he may not be better than me."

"What do you mean? Can you actually forge a weapon that can counter this armor?"

Cat Nine said somewhat impatiently, "This thing is like a tortoise shell. If you can't break it, you can't hurt Liu Rufeng."

On the stage, if you can't even break through your opponent's defenses, then you've lost.

"We might not necessarily lose."

Su Mu shook his head and said, "I got a Heavenly Net Umbrella from Du Rongcheng, which can be surrounded by hundreds of beasts. I can't hurt Liu Rufeng, and if Liu Rufeng wants to hurt me, he has to get past the hundred beasts first."

After returning to Da Xuan, Su Mu had been pondering how to break the curse.

Using the Heavenly Net Umbrella would at least ensure his invincibility.

"You obtained this Heavenly Net Umbrella from Du Rongcheng, so it's understandable that Du Rongcheng might have left some backup plans."

Ning Hongchen said worriedly.

"Du Rongcheng doesn't have that kind of scheming."

Su Mu calmly replied, "Besides, have you forgotten that I am a weapon blacksmith? Do you think I don't know if a weapon has any hidden features?"
The Tianluo Umbrella itself is not the problem.

However, using the Heavenly Net Umbrella only ensures invincibility; to achieve victory, another method must be devised.

"So, do you have any solutions?"

Cat Nine, who had the least patience, couldn't help but press for more information.

"There must be a solution."

Su Mu pondered for a moment and said.

After obtaining the Chaos Chart from the hands of the Celestial Venerable, Su Mu's Chaos Void Heaven Technique has been further perfected.

He could now try to forge another Chaos Divine Weapon.

If one only pursues offensive power, the Chaos Divine Weapon forged using the Chaos Void Heaven Method will definitely be stronger than the Heavenly Mandate Divine Weapon forged using the Qiankun Creation Method.

Moreover, the Chaos Divine Weapon was created by Su Mu himself, and there had never been one in the world before. Using it, he could catch Du Rongcheng and Liu Rufeng off guard.

"You all go out first. Don't let anyone disturb me before the challenge begins. I need to carefully plan this weapon."

As Su Mu spoke, he waved his hand and chased Ning Hongchen and Mao Jiu out.

He himself summoned the Yin-Yang Cauldron and began to continuously throw rare and precious materials into it.

After helping Lei Tianzun and Qi Lingyun refine the Chaos Divine Weapon last time, Su Mu had already used up most of the rare and precious materials on him.

Fortunately, Lei Tianzun helped him replenish some of his energy, and the four Tianzuns, including Gu Tianzun, also helped him replenish some of his energy.

This time, he once again gained a great deal from Du Rongcheng.

Therefore, he has no shortage of raw materials.

With a sufficient supply of forging materials, Su Mu was free to experiment with his own ideas.

Since acquiring new territory, the Great Xuan Dynasty has been working intensively to build cities.

The first building constructed was not the Great Xuan Imperial Palace, but the main office of the Great Xuan Taiping Division.

Su Mu secluded himself to forge weapons in this new headquarters of the Great Xuan Taiping Division.

The crackling sound of flames echoed in the small room as countless rare and precious materials were thrown into the Yin-Yang Cauldron.

These rare and precious materials alone would be priceless if they were outside.

With Su Mu, the world's number one weapon-forging master, personally involved, this Chaos Divine Weapon, even before it was fully formed, was already of immeasurable value.

Su Mu himself was unaware that, while he was forging weapons, the sky above the Grand Xuan Taiping Division headquarters was already filled with a seven-colored light, as if some treasure was about to appear in the world.

With a wave of his hand, Lei Tianzun unleashed a force that concealed the strange phenomenon.

His expression showed both shock and delight.

Not long ago, he and Qi Lingyun went out to search for the Chaos Record, but after many days of searching, they found nothing.

With the time approaching for Su Mu to face the heroes of the world, they returned to Da Xuan to oversee the situation.

Not only the two of them, but also the four Heavenly Venerables, Gu Tianzun, Zeng Tianzun, Zhao Tianzun, and Chen Tianzun, have returned.

It was precisely because they had joined forces to recommend Su Mu to be the Yang Lord of this Saha World that, at this crucial moment, they naturally wanted to lend Su Mu their support.

They never expected that Su Mu would give them such a surprise so soon after they returned to Da Xuan.

"The secrets of heaven are shrouded in chaos and uncertainty. Is this the chaotic divine weapon that Su Mu spoke of?"

"The ancient Celestial Venerable said with some excitement."

He had never seen such a strange phenomenon before, and he could feel an aura that disturbed the secrets of heaven gathering in the Taiping Division headquarters. In addition, the people of the Great Xuan Dynasty said that Su Mu was in seclusion forging weapons, so he naturally immediately thought of the Chaos Divine Weapon.

In fact, the reason why the four Celestial Venerables supported Su Mu was originally a deal.

Su Mu agreed to forge Chaos Divine Weapons for the four of them to remove the binding spells on them.

Previously, the four ancient celestial beings had some doubts, but now that they personally felt this aura that was disrupting the secrets of heaven, their doubts completely vanished.

"That's right, this is the Chaos Divine Weapon."

Lei Tianzun said solemnly, "Judging from his aura, his weapon-forging skills have improved again."

Lei Tianzun possessed a Chaos Divine Weapon, which Su Mu had previously crafted for him.

However, because that Chaos Divine Weapon had a flaw, Lei Tianzun had never made up his mind to use it.

Lei Tianzun is now somewhat glad he made that choice.

Fortunately, he didn't rush. Just acquiring one more Chaos Diagram has already significantly improved Su Mu's weapon-forging skills. If he were given several more Chaos Diagrams, Su Mu would definitely be able to overcome the shortcomings of his current Chaos Divine Weapons!
Where are the other Chaos Records?

Lei Tianzun glanced at Gu Tianzun and the others who were staring at the strange phenomenon in the sky, and his heart stirred slightly.

Unlike them, Gu Tianzun and the others were unaware that Su Mu's Chaos Void Heaven Technique was not yet perfect.

Lei Tianzun had no intention of telling them this.

Ultimately, Gu Tianzun and the others could not be considered "one of their own".

However, it wouldn't be a problem to ask them to help find the Chaos Record.

"Ancient Celestial Venerables, do you know the whereabouts of the Chaos Record?"

Lei Tianzun asked in a deep voice.

"Why are you suddenly asking about this?"

Without turning his head, Gu Tianzun said, "Could it be that you saw Su Mu comprehend the method of forging Chaos Divine Weapons from the Chaos Diagram and you're also determined to try it yourself?"

We've all come across the Chaos Chart before, but who has actually gleaned any insights from it?
Even if there are any, they're just minor, insignificant tricks, not worth spending too much time on.

"Yes, look at how many years the Celestial Venerable Jue has been guarding a Chaos Diagram on Mount Nanheng, enduring the cold winds, yet he hasn't gained anything."

Zeng Tianzun said, "Our comprehension is not necessarily better than Jue Tianzun's, so it is really not worthwhile to spend our energy on the Chaos Diagram."

The legend of the Chaos Record has existed for many years, and these Celestial Venerables have all come into contact with the Chaos Record during their growth.

However, as the two Celestial Venerables said, very few people actually gained any insight from the Chaos Record, so gradually, most Celestial Venerables stopped paying attention to it.

It was precisely because of this that Qi Lingyun was able to easily collect all four Chaos Diagrams back then.

Now it seems that this situation has changed.

The Chaos Records, which the Celestial Venerables had previously paid little attention to, suddenly seemed to have become precious again.

Lei Tianzun and Qi Lingyun both discovered that someone was secretly collecting the Chaos Records.

The Chaos Record that Qi Lingyun had hidden was intercepted by someone else.

Su Mu currently only has four pieces of the Chaos Chart; he needs to find the other five to complete the set.

"Since I'm just idling around anyway, there's no harm in giving it a try."

Lei Tianzun said, "If you have the Chaos Diagram, I can exchange it for something."

"This really doesn't exist."

The Ancient Celestial Venerable said dismissively, "However, if you really want it, I do know where there is one."

"Don't tell me it's the one on Nanheng Mountain."

Lei Tianzun said.

"of course not."

Ancient Celestial Venerable shook his head and said, "This time, in order to collect materials for Su Mu to refine the Chaos Divine Weapon, I went to see an old friend."

My old friend's name is Zhong Du.

"The Chaos Record is in his hands?"

Lei Tianzun, being impatient, asked the question.

"No."

The ancient celestial being shook his head. "Zhong Du told me about a strange thing that happened to him."

As the saying goes, birds of a feather flock together, and the Celestial Venerable's friends are naturally not ordinary people.

Zhong Du is a renowned expert at the Heavenly Fate Realm.

He was a free spirit, always going his own way, so he was not well-known in the martial arts world.

But that applies to ordinary people. If someone's status and position reach a certain level, they will definitely hear the name Zhong Du.

Zhong Du has a hobby of collecting strange and unusual things, which is somewhat similar to Mao Jiu's.

However, Zhong Du collects things based solely on his preferences, not their monetary value. Therefore, he collects rare and precious materials, antiques and calligraphy, and even insignificant oddities like stones and flowers.

The ancient celestial being said that the strange thing Zhong Du encountered was that someone was willing to spend a lot of money to buy his collection.

To be honest, although Zhong Du's collection does contain some good items, they are mostly things that are not very useful to martial artists.

The other party's offer was so high that even Zhong Du found it difficult to refuse.

"Before leaving, the man showed Zhong Du an image of the Chaos Record and asked him if Zhong Du had the Chaos Record. He said he was willing to buy it at a high price."

Gu Tianzun said, "Zhong Du has indeed come into contact with the Chaos Record, but he doesn't have it himself. Considering the other party's generosity, Zhong Du also introduced him to a few people."

Surprisingly, with the other party's generous offer, he actually found one.

"Who is that person?"

Lei Tianzun asked in a deep voice.

"do not know."

Gu Tianzun shook his head and said, "Zhong Du said that the other party used a fake name and was very secretive about his origins. Zhong Du is not one to pry into other people's secrets, so he didn't pay much attention to it."

I'm just telling you that there's such a person who possesses a Chaos Chart.

The Ancient Celestial Venerable didn't care about the Chaos Diagram; he just had nothing else to do at the moment and treated it as idle chatter.

Seeing that the Ancient Celestial Venerable was staring intently at the strange phenomenon above the Great Xuan Taiping Division headquarters, completely unconcerned about the Chaos Diagram, the Thunder Celestial Venerable also frowned.

Qi Lingyun's eyes darted around, and she said with a smile, "Ancient Celestial Venerable, I actually advise you not to rush to have Su Mu help you refine the Chaos Divine Weapon."

"why?"

The ancient celestial being finally shifted his gaze from the strange phenomenon to Qi Lingyun and asked.

“Su Mu did indeed comprehend the method of forging Chaos Divine Weapons from the Chaos Diagram, but as far as I know, Su Mu only has four pieces of the Chaos Diagram, so I think his Chaos Divine Weapons may not be perfect, or at least not flawless.”

Qi Lingyun did not directly say that the Chaos Divine Weapon had flaws, but rather that it was imperfect; there is a fundamental difference between the two.

"As long as it solves my problem, whether it's perfect or not doesn't matter."

The Ancient Celestial Venerable pondered for a moment.

He naturally knew that the Chaos Chart consisted of nine pieces.

Theoretically, only a complete record of chaos can lead to the understanding of the complete method, which is not difficult to understand.

In the past, some people have tried to collect all nine pieces of the Chaos Chart, and some have indeed succeeded, but no one has ever been heard of actually gaining anything from it.

Perhaps, only that legendary Great Celestial Venerable.

"Lord Lei, you thought of this long ago? So you want to help Su Mu collect all nine pieces of the Chaos Diagram so that he can perfect his comprehension?"

Ancient Celestial Venerable looked at Thunder Celestial Venerable with a thoughtful expression.

The Celestial Venerable is, after all, the Celestial Venerable; he saw through the crux of the matter in an instant.

Lei Tianzun nodded.

"What you said makes sense."

The four ancient celestial beings exchanged glances and nodded secretly.

"Haste makes waste. I think it would be good if we could collect the Chaos Diagram and give it to Su Mu so that he could perfect the weapon-forging technique."

"Zeng Tianzun said."

"However, the Chaos Records have been lost for many years, and it is not easy to find them all."

Zhao Tianzun said.

"As long as they are still in the mortal realm, with our strength, surely we can find them all?"

Just as the celestial beings were discussing, a sharp aura suddenly soared into the sky.

Originally, to avoid alarming outsiders, Lei Tianzun used his power to cover up the Taiping Division headquarters.

But now, his power has been completely dissipated.

Lei Tianzun couldn't help but show a look of astonishment.

"This is--"

He stared wide-eyed at the white light in front of him, which looked like a rainbow piercing the sun.

A white light emanated from the main office of the Great Xuan Taiping Division, soaring into the sky and forming a pillar of light that filled the heavens and the earth.

Qi Lingyun, Gu Tianzun, and the others also showed surprise.

"Lord Lei, you call this Chaos Divine Weapon imperfect?"

Ancient Celestial Venerable couldn't help but speak up.

Although I haven't seen the Chaos Divine Weapon that Su Mu forged in person yet, I can tell from the aura it exudes that it is definitely an unparalleled weapon!
This power was something they had never seen before.

Even they felt a sense of threat.

"This chaotic divine weapon might be able to harm us."

Zhao Tianzun spoke slowly.

All the Celestial Venerables' expressions turned solemn.

Even Lei Tianzun and Qi Lingyun were puzzled. Could it be that Su Mu had already perfected the Chaos Void Heaven Technique after returning from Nanheng Mountain last time?
Otherwise, how could the Chaos Divine Weapon he forged this time have such power?

"Why don't we just ask Su Mu? Su Mu knows best whether the Chaos Divine Weapon is perfect or not."

"The Ancient Celestial Venerable said, and took the lead, heading towards the main office of the Taiping Division."

As soon as they pushed open the door, they saw Su Mu slowly walking out, carrying a long spear in his hand.

The spear was about ten feet long, and its entire body was as black as ink. Even a glance from afar could make one feel its chilling light.

The group of Celestial Venerables stared intently at the spear in Su Mu's hand, as if they were naive young people who had never seen the world before.

Anyone could see that this was the Chaos Divine Weapon that Su Mu had just forged.

It was also the aura it had previously emitted that made them all feel threatened.

"Su Mu, is this the Chaos Divine Weapon you just forged?"

The Ancient Celestial Venerable asked without any politeness. As a Celestial Venerable, he had no need to hold back.

"Does this chaotic divine weapon have any flaws? For whom was it forged?"

The ancient celestial being asked the question directly, and Su Mu couldn't help but chuckle.

"That's right, this is the Chaos Divine Weapon I forged."

Su Mu brandished the spear in his hand. "It wasn't prepared for you Celestial Venerables; I crafted it to deal with Liu Rufeng."

As for its flaws—

Su Mu paused for a moment, then said, word by word, "It does have a flaw."

"What flaw?"

All the celestial beings blurted it out.

"This spear is called the Formation-Breaking and Heaven-Burning Spear. It is indestructible and can break through anything, but it can only be used once."

Su Mu said slowly, "Once used, it will lead to mutual destruction."

"Having spent such a great deal, only to forge a single-use Chaos Divine Weapon, this is indeed my failure."

Su Mu sighed, a regretful expression on his face. (End of Chapter)
