Godslayer: I, the agent of the God of Drama, am here to begin the show.

At this point, someone might say something.

As your strength increases, you shouldn't rely solely on weapons; you should focus more on improving your own abilities.

True improvement comes from improving oneself.

You cannot improve yourself by relying on external things; those things are all illusory.

It won't help your growth at all.

Someone will definitely say that.

At this point, Lin Ze had something to say.

What?

You're saying that acquiring weapons doesn't count as an increase in strength?

Come here and let me cut you with my knife. Let's see if you get hurt.

Why the hell do you care how I improved? As long as I became stronger, that's enough.

Furthermore, the difference between humans and animals is that humans are able to use external objects rationally.

How can the weapons I obtained through my own trickery not count as my own strength?

Pah, what a rip-off.

How can the weapons I earned myself not count as my own improvement?!

This is money I earned with my blood and sweat!

There's no denying that this weapon was obtained through suffering.

At this moment, Yang Jian looked at Lin Ze with a serious expression.

He definitely wouldn't want to give his weapon to Lin Ze.

But now that things have come to this point, it's no longer a matter of whether he wants to or not.

Lin Qiye will wake up someday.

If Lin Qiye really finds out about this, how will he face Lin Qiye in the future?

So there's nothing we can do about it.

Yang Jian now has only one choice.

Losing money is a way to avert disaster.

However, he still wanted to try before that, even though the chances of success were slim.

But what if it succeeds?

If this succeeds, wouldn't we be able to save a magical artifact?

"Tell me quickly, what exactly are you going to give me?"

"Actually, you don't need to worry too much about it."

"I know you're full of good stuff, so it's normal that you can't make a choice right away."

"You can take your time choosing."

"I don't mind which one you give me, since you have some really good stuff on you."

Lin Ze said in a calm tone.

He believed that Yang Jian had not made a choice for a long time because his divine weapon was too powerful.

I don't know how to make a choice.

The more this happened, the happier Lin Ze felt.

This is the only way to prove that everything Yang Jian has is a good thing.

If he decisively gave himself a magical artifact, then Lin Ze would be worried.

The fact that Yang Jian could make such a decisive choice doesn't necessarily mean he has a decisive personality.

Rather, it's because this artifact is so different from the others that I was able to choose it decisively.

Lin Ze thought Yang Jian was in a good state.

At least the quality of my magical artifact is guaranteed.

So he wasn't in a hurry. It was already agreed upon, so how could Yang Jian possibly go back on his word?

After some deliberation, Yang Jian finally made his choice.

"Lin Ze, I've made up my mind."

"Are you ready to accept it? You must be able to withstand it; its power is immense!"

Lin Ze straightened his back immediately. "Don't worry! I'm ready!"

Yang Jian smiled slightly, "Alright! The next divine artifact I'm going to give you is..."

Lin Ze: "What is it?!"

Yang Jian took out an object that looked like a small blanket and held it high above his head.

"This is it!"

"The All-Encompassing Cloak!"

Lin Ze looked somewhat surprised. "The Heavenly Cloak!"

This name sounds awesome!

Wait a moment....

"What did you just say its name was?"

Yang Jian felt a little guilty, but still answered without changing his expression, "The Hun Tian Cloak, that's my trump card!"

After confirming this bizarre name, Lin Ze was speechless.

Damn it!

Yang Jian was indeed up to no good!

He knew the other party wouldn't willingly give him the artifact.

Lin Ze had previously thought that he didn't know what choice to make.

Lin Ze now realized that Yang Jian was trying to figure out how to deceive him!

If it were someone else, they might actually be fooled by Yang Jian's impressive-sounding name.

But Lin Ze is different.

He knows the ins and outs of it.

The Heavenly Cloak? That's a nicer way of putting it!

High emotional intelligence: The all-encompassing cloak.

Low emotional intelligence: The clothes of the dog, Xiaotianquan.

Correct!

That's right, this so-called Hun Tian Cloak is actually the clothes of the Howling Celestial Dog!

It just has a nicer-sounding name.

Aside from that, it has no other use. Compared to Yang Jian's treasures, it can't be said to be completely useless.

That really has absolutely no effect!

No, that's not quite accurate.

To be precise, it does have some effect.

At the very least, it can be used as a blanket, right? It can also be used to keep warm in winter.

But... Lin Ze has cultivated to this level, what need does he have for keeping warm?

Even if he doesn't wear clothes, he won't freeze to death in the Arctic!

With his spiritual energy protecting him, this was no longer a problem for Lin Ze.

Seeing that Lin Ze did not answer for a long time, Yang Jian began to have doubts.

Why has this kid been so quiet for so long?

"Could they have discovered something? Impossible, absolutely impossible."

"How could a human like him know what divine artifacts I possess? Besides, even though the Heavenly Cloak is actually the clothes of the Celestial Hound, it's not entirely useless."

"At least a trace of the Celestial Hound's divinity remains above."

"Ordinary people would never notice it; they'd just think it's a divine artifact. But if they actually used it in battle, they'd be dumbfounded."

"Lin Ze definitely didn't realize that, yes, that's exactly it."

Thinking of this, Yang Jian felt much better.

He then reluctantly handed the "Heavenly Cloak" to Lin Ze.

"To be honest, I'm a little reluctant to part with it, after all, it's been my old companion for many years."

"But since I've already agreed, I can't go back on my word. Just consider it my investment in you."

I believe your future will be bright!

Yang Jian patted Lin Ze's shoulder forcefully.

Their eyes were filled with the appreciation and expectations that elders have for their juniors.

Lin Ze took the "Heavenly Cloak" with a gloomy expression; it even smelled of dog.

And his old companion that had been with him for many years?

You little brat, you can just spout nonsense as soon as you open your mouth, can you?

Wait a minute, why did I say "again"? Never mind, it's not important.

The Celestial Dog is your old companion who has been with you for many years.

The Hun Tian Cloak is an old companion that has been with Xiao Tian Dog for many years.

So the Heavenly Cloak has become your old companion, right?!

Yang Jian believed that this was a win-win deal for both parties.

Lin Ze obtained the artifact he wanted, and he didn't feel bad about it.

And this incident was resolved perfectly.

That's a pretty perfect solution.

Even so, one party is still not entirely satisfied.

Howling Celestial Dog.

He's already started complaining to himself.

Dude, what does your business have to do with a dog like me?

And you want to exchange my favorite clothes for them?

I may not be human, but you guys are real dogs!

Of course, Xiaotianquan was only grumbling to himself.

He always unconditionally supported Yang Jian's decisions.

There was nothing they could do; what could they do about their own master?

Let him find himself a completely new one after this matter is over.

Trading in an old item for a new one doesn't seem like a bad thing.

However, Lin Ze didn't say a word at this moment, but simply draped the "Heavenly Cloak" over Xiaotian Dog's body.

Yang Jian and his dog, Xiaotianquan, panicked instantly upon seeing this.

Has he already figured it out?

impossible!

How could Lin Ze, a mere mortal, possibly know?

That doesn't make sense.

But now that he has made this move, it proves that he already knows.

While we can't be absolutely certain that this is the clothes of the Celestial Hound, we can pretty much guess that it's not a magical artifact!

Yang Jian still wanted to salvage the situation, so he asked with a puzzled look, "Lin Ze, what are you doing?"

"Does it mean you don't like it? If you don't like it, you can just tell me."

Why do this?

Lin Ze remained calm. "I just think the little black toad's temperament suits it better."

At this moment, the little black toad quickly spoke up to cover for its master.

"What kind of talk is that!"

"I can't take this. It's my brother's most prized possession. How could I possibly accept it?"

"You should keep it, Lin Ze. Your strength is currently too weak to see its power. But once you truly grow stronger, you'll discover its true power!"

Lin Ze didn't want to say anything more.

He bluntly said, "Look, even a dog wouldn't want this, and you're giving it to me?"

Yang Jian: "???"

Howling Celestial Dog: "???"

For some reason, they felt that Lin Ze was cursing, but what he said was all true.

It's something even a dog wouldn't want.

Only then did Yang Jian finally understand.

It turns out that Lin Ze had already figured it out.

Since that's the case, there's nothing we can do about it.

"Sigh, I didn't want to say it."

"But you forced me to do this."

"Fortunately, I managed to save my aunt, so my brother and mother will be together then."

"I refuse to believe they can't control you!"

Lin Ze said with a hint of fierceness.

Thinking of this, Yang Jian and Xiao Hei Lai's eyes welled up with tears.

When Cangnan City disappeared, they witnessed their mother vanish before their very eyes.

Although they are gods, they shouldn't have such sentimental feelings.

But after all, she was his mother, with whom he had lived for so long.

How could I possibly feel comfortable?

He also considered rescuing her alone.

But he couldn't do it; his abilities were more suited to killing and killing, and he wasn't good at healing or resurrection.

Even if the other party is just an insignificant mortal.

So all they could do was watch helplessly as nothing happened.

Now that Lin Ze said that, he suddenly remembered that he owed Lin Ze a favor.

Regardless of whether he did it for himself or for Lin Qiye.

The facts are clear: Auntie was resurrected prematurely by the power of the [Mortal God Realm].

No matter what, he owes Lin Ze a favor.

"OK!"

"Tell me what you want!"

"Anything I can give, I will definitely give you!"

Yang Jian truly wanted to repay this favor this time.

It should be understood that the hardest thing to repay throughout history is a favor.

It's best to make up for this favor as soon as possible.

Lin Ze raised an eyebrow. "You really want me to choose for myself?"

Yang Jian nodded reluctantly, "Okay, choose for yourself."

"But let's make this clear first: if you can't choose, then you'll take whatever I give you."

"But you can rest assured this time, this is definitely a usable artifact, and it's very powerful."

Actually, even at this point, Yang Jian still had some ulterior motives.

He was betting that Lin Ze didn't know he possessed those magical artifacts.

If he doesn't even know, how can he choose?

In this way, he would be forced to choose for him.

However, this time, Yang Jian will indeed give him a decent divine weapon.

Lin Ze thought for a moment, then spoke up decisively.

"I've made up my mind!"

Yang Jian was somewhat surprised. Could this kid actually know something?

"Tell me what you want to choose."

"I want the 'Map of Mountains and Rivers'!"

"?!"

Yang Jian was shocked. "What?!"

The Map of Mountains and Rivers is the highest-level and most practical of his divine artifacts.

If you asked him to choose a divine artifact to give to Lin Ze, he really wouldn't know what to choose for a moment.

Because each of his artifacts is extremely powerful, it's impossible to choose just one.

But if you ask him to choose the one thing he absolutely cannot give to Lin Ze, he can pick it in a second.

A map depicting the mountains, rivers, and the state!

This is something he absolutely wouldn't give to Lin Ze.

But now, by sheer coincidence, Lin Ze has chosen this option.

I don't know if I was just confused or simply lucky.

Yang Jian's face darkened, and he stammered, "Um... how about we choose another one?"

"I don't think this amazing device is suitable for you."

"With your current strength, you definitely can't use it."

"To be precise, this artifact is not suitable for you."

"How about this, if you'd like, I can get you two better ones that are more suitable for you and easier to wear."

As he spoke, Yang Jian hurriedly rummaged through chests and cabinets and found two weapons.

An axe, a long sword.

Yang Jian introduced, "The Mountain-Splitting Axe and the Demon-Slaying Sword!"

"Both of these weapons would be very suitable for you."

"It's easy for beginners to use, and its power is quite impressive."

"One for two, you've definitely come out on top."

Seeing Yang Jian's reaction, Lin Ze knew he had made the right choice.

In fact, he was unaware of the effects of the "Map of Mountains and Rivers".

In his view, every one of Yang Jian's divine weapons was extremely powerful, and in his eyes, these weapons were all the same.

The reason I chose the "Map of Mountains and Rivers" is simply because its name sounds too pretentious.

Just hearing the name makes you think it's an incredibly powerful artifact.

As luck would have it, he actually guessed right!

Yang Jian actually wanted to exchange two items for one.

This alone is enough to prove the value of the "Map of Mountains and Rivers"!

Lin Ze said firmly, "Alright, that's enough."

"My mind is made up!"

"We're about to get the 'Map of Mountains and Rivers'!"
