Evil Immortal!

Chapter 108 The Supreme Magical Artifact, the Azure Shield!

Meng Yuan was not discouraged at all. Although his cultivation was slow, it was not without its benefits. At least he could hone his character and become familiar with the various other techniques recorded in the "True Explanation of Ziyang".

While other techniques may not possess the immense power and profound mystery of "Purple Cloud True Fire" and "Pure Yang Sword Technique," they are nonetheless useful and quite convenient.

For example, the Dust-Repelling Technique can make one's clothes spotless. The Insect-Repelling Technique can repel venomous snakes and mosquitoes within a radius of a hundred meters. The Fire Control Technique allows Meng Yuan to manipulate the Purple Cloud True Fire with exquisite precision, which will greatly benefit his future alchemy and weapon crafting.

"Um?

'

That day, Meng Yuan had a sudden thought and took out a communication jade talisman from his storage bag. Then he saw the talisman's light rise and fall.

Meng Yuan channeled a wisp of true energy and heard Gu Zhengyang's voice: "Brother Meng, I need to talk to you. Come over here for a moment."

"Yes, sir!"

Meng Yuan responded, then got up, left the duty room, and headed towards the duty room where Gu Zhengyang was.

The so-called duty room is actually the office of the officials of the Demon Suppression Division.

Given Meng Yuan's current status and position, he naturally has his own duty room.

Before long, Meng Yuan arrived outside Gu Zhengyang's room. Seeing the door wide open, he simply went in.

Gu Zhengyang was standing by the window, quietly gazing outside. Noticing the movement behind him, he turned around and gestured, "Come, sit down."

"Thank you, sir."

Meng Yuan nodded in agreement and, without any hesitation, sat down in his seat.

Gu Zhengyang sat down opposite Meng Yuan and explained with a smile, "Brother Meng, the reason I asked you to come here today is because I have something to ask you."

Observing the subtle yet profound aura emanating from Gu Zhengyang, Meng Yuan's heart stirred slightly, and he asked, "Brother Gu, are you preparing to go into seclusion?"

"good."

Gu Zhengyang smiled and said, "I have sensed the opportunity for a breakthrough. In the next period of time, I will find a secluded place to begin my seclusion and seek a breakthrough. If nothing unexpected happens, I should not come to the Demon Suppression Division again in the next month."

Meng Yuan nodded knowingly. He had guessed about this before, so he was not surprised at all.

Gu Zhengyang continued, "So, the reason I called you here is that I intend to entrust you with some matters."

He actually had a group of people under him in the Demon Suppression Division. Originally, only Du Caidie and the withered monk were capable of maintaining the status quo. As for the others, there's no need to say more.

However, while Du Caidie and the monk Kumu can handle ordinary matters, they might struggle with some truly difficult problems.

A few months ago, Gu Zhengyang was a little worried, but now with the unexpected rise of Meng Yuan, Meng Yuan's status and cultivation level are enough to take over his responsibilities after he goes into seclusion.

Moreover, Gu Zhengyang was indeed quite at ease with Meng Yuan.

"Don't worry, Brother Gu, just leave anything to me."

Meng Yuan nodded in agreement.

Gu Zhengyang clearly intended to groom him as one of his own. Now that Gu Zhengyang is about to go into seclusion, and he has been promoted to the position of Commander of the Demon Suppression Thousand, he can naturally take over Gu Zhengyang's position.

Seeing Meng Yuan readily agree without hesitation, Gu Zhengyang smiled with satisfaction. "Actually, I've already taken care of some trivial matters. You just need to keep an eye on the Myriad Evil Cave and those extraterrestrial beings. Once they make any moves, just act accordingly. In any case, you have full authority to handle everything. I trust you to do things! If you really encounter something difficult to handle, just consult the Vice Hall Master."

"I understand." Meng Yuan nodded.

"Also, if anyone tries to cause trouble for you or interfere in anything, no matter who it is, remember not to be soft-hearted! I'll take responsibility for everything afterwards! Remember, in the Demon Suppression Division, those with weak personalities are destined not to stay for long."

Gu Zhengyang said meaningfully.

Meng Yuan nodded slowly, indicating that he understood.

Gu Zhengyang's meaning was very clear. Now that he had been promoted to the position of Commander of the Demon Suppression, some people might be unhappy or jealous. Such people might come from Xie Bingqian or others. If such a thing happened, Meng Yuan would not hesitate to take action.

The Demon Suppression Division was originally a violent institution of the Great Mu Dynasty. It was a sharp sword of the Great Mu Dynasty aimed at the cultivation world and at demons and evil spirits. Those who were soft-hearted could not possibly gain a foothold in the Demon Suppression Division!

Gu Zhengyang pondered for a moment and said, "You've done me a favor, so I should at least show my appreciation."

"However, I am a martial artist, while you are a cultivator of immortality. I'm afraid I can't guide you in cultivation. Besides, your talent is no less than mine, so I have nothing to teach you. In that case, I'll give you something."

He flipped his hand and handed something to Meng Yuan: "This is something I obtained from killing a cultivator. I am a martial artist, so this is useless to me, but it should be of some use to you."

Meng Yuan reached out and took it, only to find it heavy in his hand. He discovered that it was a magic weapon, and a rare defensive one at that.

This object is a palm-sized, bluish-black shield, forged from some kind of rare metal. It looks small and exquisite, but it is actually covered with intricate and mysterious patterns, emanating a faint spiritual pressure, giving people a feeling of solidity and weight.

【Azure Shield】

Rank: Top-grade Magic Weapon Type: Defensive Magic Weapon Description: This artifact was forged by an unnamed cultivator using Heavenly Profound Heavy Iron, combined with nine spiritual materials including Iron Mother, Refined Gold, and Rotten Silk Silver. It contains sixty-five restrictions and has already possessed a trace of sentience. Once activated, it transforms into a small shield to protect the user. The shield moves at will, incredibly agile, and can also release protective spiritual light to safeguard its master. It possesses exceptional resistance to flying knives and swords.

Attribute: Defense power is determined by the master's cultivation level.

"This is... a top-grade magic artifact?"

Meng Yuan was taken aback, and immediately declined, saying, "Brother Gu, this is too valuable, I can't accept it."

He wasn't being polite; he was genuinely surprised.

Meng Yuan knew very well what a top-grade magical artifact meant.

Even he, right now, only has the Purple Cloud Sword Pill as his magic weapon, and it's a high-grade magic weapon with forty restrictions.

Even so, if word got out, it would be enough to make many cultivators extremely envious.

Magical artifacts are not something that every cultivator can possess.

The refining of each magical artifact requires a great deal of effort and time.

As for magical artifacts, needless to say, these are things that only master craftsmen can refine. Moreover, they often require the right timing, location, and people. They need top-quality spiritual materials, a highly skilled craftsman, the right opportunity, and a certain amount of luck.

A magical treasure is, in some ways, even rarer than a Golden Core cultivator.
