Xiuxian, I can travel to another world

Chapter 458 Treasure
"call……"

Zhu Juchang exhaled a long breath, and a layer of sweat appeared on his skin. A feeling of exhaustion welled up in his heart.

This battle, where the opponent was defeated without sustaining any injuries, may seem easy, but in reality, it was extremely mentally taxing.

The power of the physical body is brought to its fullest potential.

Although the time was short, it felt like several days of hard work and toil. When I finally relaxed, my energy and spirit were completely depleted.

"A seventh-rank martial artist..."

"It's still a bit of a stretch!"

If Ma Gulan were fully recovered, even if he tried his best, he might not be able to succeed.

but.

This is the Zhu residence, full of guards and thugs. It wouldn't be difficult to keep people here if we summoned them.

The reason he didn't do so was twofold: firstly, Zhu Ju was confident in his own strength, and secondly, he had other motives.

He stretched his wrists and walked over to the body:

"Vice leader of the Green Robe Gang, I hope you won't disappoint me."

Compared to his initial foray into martial arts, he had not forgotten what he had learned before.

Magic!

Although there is no magic power in my body now, some secret techniques can be performed without magic power.

like,
Certain secret techniques of the divine soul!

"The living soul shakes the light, and the seven spirits respond..."

Zhu Ju murmured, the syllables resonating in the void, his thoughts sketching complex patterns in his sea of ​​consciousness.

Void.

A slight tremor.

"Photography!"

As Zhu Ju suddenly opened his eyes, a glint of light shone in them.

A phantom that bore a striking resemblance to Ma Gulan was forcibly pulled from the corpse on the ground.

Soul!

People have three souls and seven spirits.

While the physical body exists, the soul resides within it, making it extremely difficult to extract. Only those with great magical power and supernatural abilities can accomplish this.

Died.

Once the soul dissipates, even those with supernatural powers are powerless to help.

Only when a person has just died, whose soul is about to dissipate and has no other recourse, is it the easiest time to extract it.

However, this requires extremely high skill from the caster; only those who have cultivated their primordial spirit can accurately grasp it.

Zhu Ju,

Just right.

"Search!"

As soon as the incantation was invoked, Ma Gulan's soul immediately disintegrated, and countless fragments of memories surfaced.

His childhood was marked by hardship and destitution as he struggled to make a living with his younger brother; his gratitude after meeting Hong Qingyi was overwhelming; and his arrogance after mastering martial arts...

Numerous fragments of memory flashed through Zhu Ju's mind, eventually settling on a few key scenes.

"The mine in the north of the city, the fiery pit, Hong Qingyi's son, Hong Yi..."

The night is dark.

A figure appeared in the mine north of the city.

Taiyuan Prefecture is mostly plains, which is where its name comes from.

However, to the north of the city lies an extinct volcano, beneath which lies a winding mineral vein rich in Xuanhuo ore.

This mine was once the economic pillar of Taiyuan Prefecture, but after more than a hundred years of continuous mining, it has gradually fallen into disuse. Only a few mines are still producing, and it is no longer as prosperous as it once was.

However, many mine shafts remain, which are winding and interconnected like a maze, and it is common for people to get trapped and die inside.

"Three withered willows."

Zhu Ju stopped in front of a cave entrance, looked at the iconic willow tree beside it, and slowly nodded:

"This is it."

With a swift movement, he slipped into the mine.

His pace was unhurried yet incredibly fast, following the path in Ma Gulan's memory, moving swiftly without making a sound, not even a footstep.

soon.

A wave of scorching heat hit me.

Zhu Ju raised his eyebrows slightly, leaped forward, and the scene before him suddenly opened up.

Below, volcanic lava churns.

Flame bubbles of varying sizes rose from the magma and exploded in mid-air, transforming into streaks of flame that scattered in all directions. The surrounding rocks were even scorched by the high temperature and turned into glass.

"There's actually a complete fire vein here, and the earth fire evil energy is still condensed and hasn't dissipated?"

Zhu Ju looked surprised:

"No wonder Hong Qingyi's progress in cultivating the Fire Separation Technique is so rapid. This place, filled with fiery energy, is practically a treasure trove for his cultivation." The place he was in was a floating bridge made of steel bars, located above the fire vein, where the temperature was the highest.

Standing here.

An ordinary person would become dehydrated and weak in a short time, and even a martial artist would find it difficult to sustain such a condition for long.

But for those who cultivate the Li Huo Xuan Gong (a martial arts technique), it is a priceless treasure.

Touching his chin, Zhu Juteng stood up and leaped onto a very inconspicuous platform above.

The platform might not even be noticeable without careful observation.

Grab it with your hand.

A cloak appeared in his hand, and the pile of rubble in front of him had changed its appearance.

The rubble transformed into piles of gold and silver, reaching half a person's height, along with various ores of extraordinary quality, as well as some elixirs and books.

"Hong Qingyi truly lived up to his reputation as a ruthless and ambitious man. He foresaw his fate long before his backer fell into trouble and arranged for Ma Gulan to prepare for his escape. Unfortunately, it was too late."

Zhu Ju shook his head slightly and looked at the thing in his hand.

"A magical artifact capable of concealing one's aura and changing one's appearance must be the hide of some kind of demon."

The air was thick with the scents of ores and pills, but once covered by this cloak-like thing, even he couldn't sense it.

and.

The temperature here is extremely high; wood can catch fire, but the things covered up feel icy cold to the touch.

Clearly, this cloak is no ordinary item.

"Good stuff!"

Zhu Ju casually tied the cloak around his waist, squatted down, and looked through the many things in front of him.

Since the purpose is to escape, it must all be good stuff.

There are more than thirty Yuanjing crystals.

These alone are equivalent to more than 300,000 taels of silver.

However, silver in this world is only useful to ordinary people; truly rare items are traded for ingots.

silver.

To top experts, they are nothing but a pile of useless things.

"Xiantian Dan!"

"Still two!"

Zhu Ju picked up a bottle of elixir, a smile appearing on his face, the corners of his mouth slightly upturned.

The Innate Pill can increase the chances of a seventh-grade expert advancing to the sixth grade. It is extremely rare and of considerable value.

This elixir was probably prepared by Ma Gulan for himself, but he died before he could use it.

"what?"

"what is this?"

A huge iron block made Zhu Ju stop what he was doing.

The reason for using the root is...

It's because this iron block is extremely long, like an iron strip cut off from something.

Lifted it up.

Even with Zhu Ju's current physical strength, it was extremely difficult.

"More than two thousand jin!"

"It's completely dark, icy to the touch, and exudes a hidden malevolent aura. Could this be the legendary Demon-Devouring Iron?"

Demon-devouring iron is a rare treasure with an extremely terrifying restraining effect on demons. The demon-catching artifacts used by demon hunters and the Demon Suppression Bureau are all made from it.

"Demon-devouring iron also has grades. Even if this iron is not top-grade, it is still mid-grade. Although it is not easy to refine, if it can be refined into a magic weapon, it should be of grade six or even higher. It is said that Hong Qingyi's Blazing Spear was mixed with this substance."

The Fire-Separating Profound Technique not only increases cultivation level, but those who master it are also born masters of weapon crafting.

It has precise control over flames and temperature, and can stay in the area of ​​earth fire evil energy for a long time.

Is there a more suitable blacksmith than this?

Zhu Ju's expression changed slightly as he gently stroked the iron block.

His wife in another world was also a master of weapon crafting, and she herself had become a weapon spirit and fallen into a deep sleep.

same.

Having been exposed to it from a young age, Zhu Ju has also studied the art of weapon forging quite deeply. If he can forge this piece of demon-devouring iron into a suitable divine weapon of qi and blood, it will greatly enhance his strength.

However, refining the Demon-Devouring Iron is no easy task.

especially.

He is currently only a ninth-rank martial artist and has not cultivated any special techniques.

The methods used in the last world can only be used as a reference and may not be useful.

"The Blazing Inferno Technique..."

"The complete book was not found in Ma Gulan's memory, but Hong Qingyi's son, Hong Yi, was also found."

"He must have a complete legacy."
