My name is Huang Tian, ​​what the hell is this "Heaven is dead" nonsense?

Chapter 93 Crimson Light
In the afternoon, as the sun was setting and the court was about to close, a clerk left the Zhenwuwei government office and ran to the Baoqingfang Hundred Household Office to meet Huang Tian.

"Commander Huang, Commander Bai requests your presence."

"I understand."

Huang Tian guessed that the reward for capturing Zhang Yu was about to be issued, so he went to the Zhenwuwei government office and entered the office where Bai Yuanfu worked.

Upon entering, they found not only Bai Yuanfu but also an old man in a blue robe, whose aura appeared calm and his strength was considerable.

"Huang Tian, ​​this is the Grandmaster of our County Garrison, Commander Yu!" Bai Yuanfu quickly introduced.

Huang Tian suddenly realized that it was the grandmaster who had been in seclusion!

"Greetings, Vice Commissioner!"

"No need to be polite."

Yu Jingcheng stroked his beard, his kind gaze sweeping over Huang Tian from head to toe. He was secretly pleased: 'His aura is steady and composed, focused yet restrained; his foundation is solid, and he exudes heroic spirit. Even facing a grandmaster like myself, he remains calm and collected, displaying composure and tranquility. Not bad!'

Bai Yuanfu smiled and said, "Huang Tian, ​​the reason I summoned you here today is not only to give you the reward for capturing Zhang Yu. The magistrate greatly admires you, so there is another reward for you..."

Yu Jingcheng stroked his beard and smiled. With a flick of his left hand, a golden token appeared in his palm. He tossed it, and Huang Tian caught it steadily.

"I have already spoken with the Six Doors, the Xuanjia Army, and the county government. You can go there with my token and enter their library to view all the books. No one will dare to stop you."

Huang Tian clutched the gleaming golden token, his heart filled with joy. "Thank you, Vice Commissioner!"

"It's nothing," Yu Jingcheng said. "Besides this token, I will also bestow two other things upon you."

Bai Yuanfu took a long jade box from the sandalwood table next to him and handed it to Huang Tian, ​​who accepted it.

Yu Jingcheng smiled and said, "Open it and take a look. This is a Spirit Jade Mushroom, which contains abundant spiritual energy and is mild in nature. It is most suitable for mid-level three-grade martial artists to nourish their blood and qi and accelerate the condensation of true qi."

Huang Tian opened the jade box and saw a crystal-clear lingzhi mushroom inside, emitting a delicate fragrance. Just one whiff of the fragrance invigorated him, and his internal energy circulated faster!
"Thank you very much, Vice Commander!"

Closing the jade box, Huang Tian was somewhat delighted. With this Spirit Jade Mushroom, the speed at which his Qi and blood and true Qi were perfected should be able to be improved, and it would no longer take as long as a month and a half.

"Don't rush to thank me, there's something else," Yu Jingcheng said. "A martial artist always needs a handy weapon when facing an enemy. I wish to bestow upon you a divine weapon. Which weapon do you desire: a knife, a spear, a sword, a halberd, a bow, or a staff?"

'Divine weapon?'

Huang Tian was taken aback. It seemed that he didn't actually have a suitable weapon. However, it wasn't that he had completely forgotten about it. Rather, his strongest move was freehand fighting, which generally didn't require the use of weapons. Of course, he could use a gun or a knife when fighting an enemy. Freehand fighting was formless, and the use of weapons could also be incorporated into freehand fighting.

However, compared to swords and spears, he felt that bows and arrows were more suitable for him. There was no other reason than that he had no shortage of close combat skills, but he was still lacking in long-range attack skills.

Furthermore, he had read dozens of books on archery, and one of them, called "Five-String True Sound Arrow," left a deep impression on him.

The so-called five strings are the five notes: Gong, Shang, Jiao, Zhi, and Yu. The harmony of these five notes corresponds to the rotation of the five elements, which is consistent with his concept of the Five Elements Cloud Dragon Scattered Hand.

"A bow! I want a bow," Huang Tian said. Yu Jingcheng was slightly surprised. Although he said Huang Tian could choose whatever he wanted, choosing a bow still surprised him a little. After all, there weren't many people who could use a bow and arrow well, and skilled archers were always rare.

But on second thought, given Huang Tian's comprehension, it's not surprising that he learned some archery techniques.

He nodded slightly and looked at Bai Yuanfu, who went out the door, beckoned a clerk, gave him an order, and then went back into the house.

Back in the room, Bai Yuanfu smiled and said, "Besides these rewards, your official rank will also be promoted from probationary centurion to full centurion. However, considering that you will probably be eager to go to the various government offices and libraries to read books after you receive the token, we will not rush to assign you a real position. You will still temporarily manage the affairs of the Baoqingfang Centurion Office. In addition, you will be given half a month of rest and can act freely."

This two-week break was naturally for Huang Tian to read books.

Huang Tian was overjoyed: "Thank you, Vice Commissioner! Thank you, Commander!"

What a fruitful day!
Martial arts skills, magical items, divine weapons, and promotions!
Indeed, one must not be timid or hesitant in many situations; one must dare to show one's strength, otherwise how can one achieve so much at once?
As they were talking, the same clerk who had been there earlier came in carrying a long box. He placed the box on the table, and the three of them went to the table.

Shirahara Susumu reached out and opened the long box, revealing a divine bow that was entirely fiery red.

"This bow is called the Crimson Bright Bow. The bow body is forged from Flame Crystal and Hematite. As for the string, it is made from the sinew of a Grandmaster-level beast and tempered by a weapon-smith using a secret method..."

Flame Crystal and Hematite are excellent materials for forging divine weapons and are very precious. The tendons of master-level beasts are also quite valuable.

Shirahara Fusuke said, "Try holding it in your hand."

Huang Tian reached out and grasped the Crimson Bright Bow. The first thing he felt was its extremely heavy weight, followed by a warm sensation emanating from the bow.

With a gentle touch of the bowstring, it vibrated with a hum, emitting a clear and melodious sound like the cry of a phoenix. A layer of scorching ripples spread through the air, as if a blazing flame had ignited and exploded in the sky!
"What a fine bow!" Huang Tian's eyes lit up, and he was quite fond of it.

Seeing that he liked it, Yu Jingcheng smiled and said, "A master-level divine weapon is naturally not bad."

Aside from Celestial Weapons and Void Realm Weapons that no one has seen in ten thousand years, Grandmaster Weapons are the best weapons in the world. However, even if an ordinary person obtains a Grandmaster Weapon, it is difficult to use it well. For example, this Crimson Bright Bow is difficult for non-fourth-rank martial artists to even draw the bowstring!

"That's about it. Go to the registering room now to register, and then go to the treasury to collect your official robes, waist token, and other items," said Bai Yuanfu.

Huang Tian thanked the two again, then, carrying the heavy arrow box on his back and the jade box containing the spirit jade fungus in his left hand, walked briskly out of the house and headed towards the recording room.

Under the reverent gazes of the clerks in the register office, after updating his information, he immediately went to the treasury to collect the official robes and waist tokens for a commander. He took the crimson unicorn robe from the treasury clerk and tried it on to see how it fit.

"It fits perfectly!"

He glanced at the bronze mirror with satisfaction, and saw that the Qilin robe was as intense as fire, with gold thread embroidered on the shoulders and cuffs. A lifelike Qilin pattern was embroidered on the chest, with a dragon's head, deer antlers, scales on its body, four hooves treading on fire, and flame-like mane flowing on its back.

It made him appear majestic and dignified!
"Qianhu is full of vigor and spirit, how spirited he is!"

The officials praised him repeatedly, but Huang Tian just smiled when he heard this.

External appearances are ultimately insignificant; true strength is what matters!
