Chapter 140: Chapter 136: All are Heroes (Extra for Main Clan Leader cg768)_1

Li Xuan ultimately obtained six Liudao Renyuan Elixirs in the elixir room. Apart from the rewards issued by the Liudao Division, he also used one of his meritorious deeds to exchange for three Human-Origin Pills.

It wasn’t that he didn’t want to exchange for more, but the deeds required for the subsequent exchange grew according to a ladder-type rate, five times the original number.

Li Xuan used a merit that could exchange for a ’Diyuan Elixir’ in the future to exchange for Human-Origin Pills, which was quite a loss for him. Instead, he would prefer to buy from outside channels through his father’s connections.

Later, he also went to the Treasure Tower to pick up the treasured blade that Liudao Division had prepared for him.

This time, the person in charge of receiving him at the Treasure Tower was still the elderly man from before.

"How does it feel to use these ’Red-Thunder Gloves’?"

Li Xuan couldn’t help but scrutinize his hands, which were enveloped by a pair of gloves that had gone from shiny silver to flesh-colored.

"Amazing! The constant Great Rectitude Martial Intention significantly aids me."

Although the gloves were suppressed by "The Song of Integrity" during the battle in the Underground, Li Xuan could still feel them. The reason why he was able to rampage and be invincible in the jail of Chenghuang mansion that day, these gloves contributed to at least one-tenth of his success.

The Great Rectitude Martial Intention from the gloves’ original owner combined with the Great Rectitude of "The Song of Integrity", greatly increasing Li Xuan’s strength and power.

After his journey to The Underground, along with Li Xuan’s martial ars advancement, he gradually realized its benefits.

— Even though this Martial Intention is very weak, like a rootless duckweed, it is still the Martial Intention of the martial arts!

Particularly because Li Xuan himself possessed Great Rectitude Martial Intention, he could easily grasp and utilize it, even merging it with his own Martial Intention.

The reason why he was able to spar with Leng Yurou for over fifty rounds in the past two days was largely due to the Martial Intention contained in these gloves.

Of course, this was assuming that Leng Yurou used the same level of cultivation and Zhenyuan. But this was still an achievement that made Li Xuan proud. If it were Zhang Yue, he would probably be defeated within five moves.

"I’m glad you like it." The old man nodded and then led Li Xuan upstairs: "I’ve heard about your deeds in the Underground, and I’m very pleased. These ’Red-Thunder Gloves’ have indeed found their rightful owner. The original owner, Lu Liang, would surely be comforted to know this in his grave. By the way, Li Xuan, how many meritorious deeds do you have now?"

"Thirty-two."

He originally had thirty-three, but Li Xuan had just traded for three Liudao Renyuan Elixirs earlier.

"Thirty-two? You’re really raking it in. I’ve never seen someone accrue as much as you have in under two months at the Liudao Division." The old man couldn’t help but chuckle: "Youjiao Li, according to our Liudao Division’s rules, three good deeds can be exchanged for a medium-grade magical instrument. Don’t you have any thoughts on this?"

Li Xuan looked up towards the upper floors: "Can I exchange for top-grade magical instruments on the seventh floor? It seems like it’s fifteen good deeds for one, right?"

The elderly man shook his head: "The problem is your insufficient official rank. To enter the seventh floor, you need to be promoted to Six Paths Bureau Colonel. But you don’t need to spend your merit on that. Among the medium-grade magical instruments, there are quite a few that are as powerful and practical as the top-grade ones, but they are just a notch below in terms of material and durability. You only need three good deeds. It’s worth it, and right now there are several such items in this tower."

Li Xuan’s eyes lit up instantly. He bowed politely: "That’s great, senior, thank you for your recommendation!"

"No need for formality, I too hope these objects will find a suitable owner. Only then can they really shine, instead of gathering dust in a storage room."

The old man continued to ascend: "Let’s go see the knife prepared for you first."

After entering the sixth floor, the old man led him to a shiny silver long blade wrapped in minute bolts of lightning.

The design of it was similar to Six Paths Bureau Colonel’s slay demons knife, but its blade was a bit longer, reaching two feet and nine inches. The material was also unusual, with countless lines that read like hammer marks and a series of connected talismans on the blade.

— These talismans looked like scrawly handwriting individually, but when they were connected, they looked solemn and aesthetically pleasing.

"This knife was originally called ’Leimie Blade’ and is now called ’Huaiyi Blade’. After the general’s order was issued, I specifically chose this treasure blade for you. You are now visualizing the Shenxiao Juemie Thunder, aren’t you? Conveniently, the original owner of this blade also based his Thunder Style on the Shenxiao Juemie Thunder. But its peculiarity does not stop there, this is also a magical instrument infused with Martial Intention."

While explaining, the old man flicked his hand, sending the long blade to Li Xuan: "The previous owner perished on Song Mountain, dying in a battle against a big demon from the tenth house level, which saved the 400,000 people within a 300-mile radius from disaster."

Li Xuan held the ’Huaiyi blade’ in his hand and took a few casual swings, stirring up a sizzling aura of thunder.

In his perception, this blade’s thunder-style was stronger than that of his Red-Thunder Gloves by a substantial margin.

If he were to use his previous gaming terminology, the thunder-style power boost from the Red-Thunder Gloves should be about sixty percent, while this sword could enhance it by seventy-five percent.

The crucial point was that the abilities of these two magical implements didn’t overlap, but rather added up.

Besides that, it was also made of a very tough material, much stronger, and sharper than his original knife. When Li Xuan tested the blade edge with a strand of his hair, it severed the hair just with its gentle touching weight.

The key was the Martial Spirit. The blade and glove faintly resonated with each other as well as with Li Xuan himself, harmoniously echoing each other.

This made their connection exceptionally harmonious, making the sword feel like an extension of his own body.

"Thank you for your kindness, senior! This blade is really good! I can handle it very well."

Li Xuan could hardly put it down and fastened it without ceremony at his waist. He started to look forward to the next implement even more: "Is there more? If there are similar implements available, I would love to exchange for a few more."

"You come with me." The elder led the way, came to the window at the east side of this floor, then pointed to a rosewood shelf nearby: "The Thunder Winged Crown, also a martial spirit-contained implement. However, its original owner was not from our Liudao Division, but a good man from the Jin Army.

Back at the event of the Tumu Fort, this man held the fort of Zijin Pass single-handedly, covered his comrades during their retreat, and died after slaying 79 warriors. His dead body stood without falling, reminding people of ancient warlords. Coincidentally, its owner was also a practitioner of Dongxuan Jingshenzhi. With this implement, your future practice in this martial arts would be halved."

"Really?"

Li Xuan immediately put down the crown he was wearing and put the Thunder Winged Crown on his head.

Then he tried practicing his Dongxuan Jingshenzhi, pointing a finger forward. Li Xuan was overjoyed. This was also stronger than the Red-Thunder Glove, weaker than ’Huaiyi Blade’, but it was still an excellent magical instrument.

"It’s indeed a good treasure, exchange it!"

Li Xuan fastened the two hanging ties tightly under his chin. He was prepared to wear the magical instrument straight home.

But at this moment, Li Xuan faintly felt something was wrong.

"Then, we have this, a protective amulet, called ’Ice Shield’."

The elder brought him in front of another wooden rack: "You already have three Thunder Style magical artifacts, having any more would be pointless. This magical instrument can greatly increase the ice power you control. Its owner was a remarkable person, a prodigy who opened up the third heaven door with ice magic when he was only eighteen years old, thirty-seven years ago. I had high hopes for him too. It’s a pity..."

Li Xuan finally realized what was wrong, and he broke into a cold sweat: "Senior, do not tell me that its previous owner also perished in a heroic sacrifice?"

"Right!" The elder nodded, "He was killed by Li Zhetian, the Knife Demon, the one who ranked first in the black list. When Li Zhetian killed him, although he had not achieved the heavenly level, he was already one of the top five swordsmen in the world. The owner of the ’Ice Spirit Protection’ unfortunately encountered him. All the bones in his body were shattered by Li Zhetian, but he chose to die rather than surrender."

Hearing this, Li Xuan couldn’t help but feel depressed: "Senior, can’t we make some changes? Isn’t there any one whose previous owner is still alive, or who died of old age?"

"Are you sure?" The elder looked back at Li Xuan, puzzled, "If you mind this kind of thing, then there’s nothing to be done. Eighty percent of the magical instruments in the Treasure Tower were left by their deceased masters. However, less than one-tenth have residual martial intention, and even fewer are like that of Youjiao Li’s Great Rectitude Martial Intention."

"Youjiao Li, do you know where we are? This is the Treasure Tower, but it also serves as a monument for the fallen agents of Liudao Division."

As the elder spoke, he waved his hand and sealed ’Ice Shield’ up again with a trace of Mana.

"Think it through, you only need three top-grade feats to exchange for it, which would definitely enhance your potential. Of course, I won’t force you into anything, you can simply forget it if you don’t like it."

"Wait!"

Li Xuan’s eyes struggled, feeling extremely difficult, but he finally spoke with extreme difficulty:"How about... we exchange it?"

The elder couldn’t help but grin at his words: "Alright, I hope you can treat it well."

He raised his hand and handed the ’Ice Shield’ to Li Xuan.

"Let’s go and see the last piece of the magical instrument that contains Great Rectitude Martial Intention. But I should inform you in advance that this is a bracelet of the ice element. It goes well with your Frozen Blade and Cold Breath Fierce Palm. However, its owner was also a highly admired nobleman."

About half a moment later, Li Xuan walked out of the Treasure Tower with a set of newly exchanged magical instruments.

Just then, a gust of autumn wind ensued made him felt authentically ’The wind blows over the easy water, the warrior will never return’ and ’Rather die with fragrance in the trees, why ever would I let the north wind bring me down’ feelings.

He lowered his head, touched the ’Sacrifice’ suit he was wearing, his face was filled with mixed emotions.

Li Xuan now feels that his future is covered in darkness and that he will soon be brought down by the ’Sacrifice’ suit.

This is ominous—
