I searched for corpses in the Wuding River to extract entries

However, Xie Que was not 100% sure that His Majesty Amaterasu had fallen into the celestial barrier.

He was still waiting for the right time, and Xie Que was convinced that
As time goes on, not only himself, but also those hermits and the Pantheon will inevitably show up and disrupt the existing order.

His most urgent task at this stage is to do his best to improve his cultivation.
Work hard to advance your martial arts to the level of a martial god, and then consider other trivial matters.

When a warrior enters the realm of heaven and man, his desire for meat will gradually weaken.

This is because they have already comprehended the transformation of yin and yang, and it is enough for them to draw spiritual energy from heaven and earth and then transform it into qi and blood.

However, the biggest challenge in the heaven-man stage is how to deeply comprehend the heaven and earth and experience nature.

If a warrior cannot achieve harmony between his body and the universe, and cannot make his magnetic field resonate with the magnetic field of the universe,
Then they would not be able to take that step and break through to the realm of Martial God.

This was certainly not an insurmountable obstacle for Xie Que.
However, if he wanted to further evolve his cave into a world,
Then he also needs to find and obtain a large number of rare treasures from heaven and earth to increase the strength of the cave.

Under such circumstances, Xie Que returned to Dongshan Road.

He did not choose to return directly to Aoki Shrine, but instead chose a remote location in the city and opened a shop.

This shop is specialized in purchasing all kinds of rare treasures from heaven and earth. It does not accept currency or spiritual stones, only exchange.

The items they provided for exchange were various kinds of elixirs.

Li Ruyi has not wasted his time in the past few hundred years.

While he was refining the cave heaven, he was also committed to the development of alchemy, and even successfully developed an elixir that was helpful to the God of Creation.
Although there are only two or three kinds, it is enough to demonstrate the superb alchemy skills of him.

As for elixirs with other effects, their types are even more numerous and countless.

With his strong control and subtle perception, Xie Que can easily refine most of the pills.

Among the pills that Xie Que took out, only a small number were beneficial to warriors.

Most of them are specifically designed for Onmyoji and to treat various injuries to the soul and body.

They named the shop "Beihaizhai".

In the early days of opening, due to the remote location of the shop, there was not a single business in the first seven days.

However, Xie Que did not feel anxious about this.

In addition to carefully guiding Hideki Furukawa's practice every day, he was also researching substitutes for various medicinal herbs.

The area of ​​Yingzhou is relatively small, so its resources are naturally not as abundant as those of Xiaobeihai.

However, Xie Que was not too worried about the medicinal properties.

After all, the cultivation of these Onmyojis is somewhat "empty".
For them, the effect of the complete elixir might be too strong.

Therefore, Xie Que chose to use common medicinal materials and appropriately reduce some of the medicinal effects to ensure that the effect of the pill was just right.

A few days passed quickly.

Finally, on a rainy night, Beihaizhai welcomed its first guest.

Xie Que was grinding medicinal herbs in the store at the time. When he heard the noise outside the door, he raised his head slightly but did not stop what he was doing.

From the guest's attire and gait, Xie Que judged that this was an Onmyoji and also a swordsman.

He had a knife hanging from his waist and a black hat on his head.

His entire face was covered by the hat, so his true appearance could not be seen.

The swordsman's steps seemed a little unsteady, and he was obviously injured.

When the swordsman walked to the counter, Xie Que asked, "What can I do for you, sir?"

The swordsman did not answer directly, but lowered the brim of his hat even lower.

The voice was deep as he asked, "Your sign outside says it's only for exchange and not for sale?"

Xie Que nodded: "Yes, if you have rare medicinal herbs or other rare treasures in your hands, you can exchange them with me."

The swordsman seemed very interested in this, and he asked further:
"So what can I get?"

Xie Que chuckled and replied, "That depends on what you have, my guest."

At this moment, the swordsman suddenly took off his sword from his waist, slammed it heavily on the counter, and asked:

"What if I have nothing?"

Xie Que remained calm and said calmly:

"Then you can try it, sir."

As he spoke, he continued to grind the herbs in his hand.

The swordsman seemed a little surprised to see the shop owner so calm and showing no fear at all.

He raised his head and began to look at Xie Que carefully.

The swordsman had a thick beard and a conspicuous scar at the corner of his eye that extended all the way to his ear, making him look extremely fierce.

This stare lasted for nearly ten seconds, and then he opened his mouth and smiled.

He slowly put away the knife in his hand, and then took out a jade pendant of an irregular shape from his waist.

It seemed like it was casually slapped on the counter, and the jade pendant made a dull sound when it collided with the wooden counter.

He said to Xie Que in a relaxed tone: "Boss, take a good look at this jade pendant."

Xie Que simply glanced at the jade pendant and shook his head without hesitation: "This... is useless."

Hearing this, a trace of astonishment flashed across the swordsman's face.

This piece of spiritual jade is an extremely precious treasure to him.

The spiritual energy it contains is so powerful that it is enough to allow a sixth-level Yin-Yang master to restore his full spiritual energy three times.

However, in Xie Que's eyes, this piece of jade that he thought was priceless had become "useless".

A surge of anger surged in the swordsman's heart, and just as he was about to explode,

But suddenly I caught a glimpse of a young man walking slowly down the stairs.

When he saw the young man's face, he was so shocked that he almost jumped up and blurted out: "Flying Bird Sword Saint?"

In recent years, the legend about a young Onmyoji has spread widely across the four islands of Kyushu.

Someone had witnessed this young Yin-Yang master swinging his sword.
The sword energy was as overwhelming as the flying birds on the seashore, so he was honored as the "Flying Bird Sword Saint".

On the sea, even a huge monster with a size of over a hundred miles and infinite power can

They could not withstand his sword energy that surged like the tide, and would be pierced into a sieve by countless sword energies in an instant.

And at this moment, the legendary Bird Sword Saint was standing right in front of him.

"I didn't expect you to be here."

The swordsman's tone was full of surprise, and his attitude became extremely respectful.

Hideki Furukawa didn't even look at the swordsman, but just nodded slightly in response.

Then, he walked to Xie Que's side and said in a more respectful tone:

"Teacher, I have some things to take care of."

After hearing this, Xie Que nodded slightly to show his understanding.

Then, Hideki Furukawa picked up a bag and prepared to leave.

After all, he has been away from home for nearly ten years, and this time he wants to go home to visit his long-lost parents.

When the swordsman saw Hideki Furukawa was about to leave, he dragged his injured legs and tried to catch up.

Furukawa Hideki noticed this and looked back at him with a hint of doubt in his eyes: "Why are you following me?" The swordsman woke up from his dream and asked in disbelief:
"Excuse me, are you really the legendary Sword Saint Asuka?"

During their travels in Yingzhou, Master Xie Que and his disciple never revealed their real names.

In the outside world, only the resounding title of Flying Bird Sword Saint was known, but no one had ever seen Xie Que take action in person.

Hideki Furukawa nodded. There was no need for him to hide anything about this question.

However, the swordsman seemed to want to say something, but Furukawa Hideki took a step forward and his figure instantly disappeared into the narrow alley.

The swordsman breathed a sigh of relief, his heart filled with awe.

He walked back into the store, his mind racing.

He clearly heard the revered "Ascending Sword Master" call the shop owner "Teacher".

This made him start to wonder how powerful this seemingly ordinary shop owner was...

Thinking of this, the swordsman's mood suddenly became extremely nervous.

After careful consideration, he finally made up his mind and took out a living heart from his arms with some heartache.

It was a warm heart full of vitality, beating rhythmically, as if it contained powerful vitality.

Xie Que's attention was attracted by this heart.

This heart is about the same size as an adult's head. It not only emits a faint heat, but also exudes a faint aura of majesty.

If you look closely, you can see that the surface of the heart is crisscrossed with blood vessels. Every beat is full of power, as if telling of the tenacity and indomitable spirit of life.

With his rich experience, Xie Que could tell at a glance that this was the heart of a dragon.

Moreover, judging from the pressure and vitality of the heart, this dragon is most likely a demon king at the peak of the fifth realm, and is even about to break through to the level of a great demon at the sixth realm.

If such a heart is used as medicine, it will undoubtedly greatly enhance the power of qi and blood.

Thinking of this, Xie Que finally raised his head and said, "This heart is good. What do you want to exchange it for?"

However, the swordsman seemed a little hesitant at this moment. This dragon heart was of great significance to him.

In order to get it, he tried almost everything, even risking his life.

Now, he was asked to trade this heart easily, so he naturally felt reluctant.

Xie Que keenly sensed the swordsman's inner struggle, so he smiled slightly.
He took out an exquisite jade box from under the counter: "Please look at this, sir."

As he spoke, he gently opened the lid of the jade box.

Suddenly, a cloud of mist rose from the box and lingered in the air, making the items in the jade box hazy and mysterious, making it impossible to see their true appearance.

Xie Que gently pushed the jade box forward. To ensure that the other party could feel the Jade Marrow Pill more clearly, he introduced:
"Guest, you were injured in the battle. This Chalcedony Pill can help you."

He paused, then continued:

"This thing is called Jade Marrow Pill. After taking it, it can not only quickly heal your injuries, but it may even help you break through your current cultivation level and reach a higher level."

The swordsman had never seen such strange things as elixirs, so he was a little confused.

After all, his own cultivation has reached the peak of Shao Yun (fifth realm), and with one more step he will be able to break through to Dayun.

Although he had some doubts in his heart, he gritted his teeth and nodded when he thought of the "Flying Bird Sword Saint".
Planning to take a gamble: "Okay, I'll switch!"

Just as he raised his hand to take the Jadeite Pill, Xie Que stopped him again:
"Wait a minute."

He looked at the shopkeeper and pointed at the dragon heart and said, "This thing is not enough."

"What?" Upon hearing this, the swordsman felt a little bit unbelievable for a moment.

Such a heart of a dragon is not enough?
Could it be that the transaction requires a top-notch treasure that can be used by Dayun?
At this moment, the swordsman even wanted to draw his sword and kill someone.

But he still held back.

Because he discovered that his soul, which had just appeared, could not leave his body even a foot away!

Under this kind of pressure specifically targeting the soul, the swordsman's shock and anger suddenly turned into panic.

As expected of him, he is the teacher of Sword Saint Aska... With this strength, he is almost becoming, or already is, a great Onmyoji.

The swordsman hesitated for a while, but finally took out a piece of dragon horn.

This thing is even more expensive than that heart!
But he didn't expect that the shopkeeper just said "hmm" and said: "That's right, you can take it."

The swordsman picked up the chalcedony pill and walked out of it in a daze.

When he was dozens of miles away, he finally realized what was going on. The more he thought about it, the more he regretted it.

After meeting the "Flying Bird Sword Saint", I was so distracted by the impulse that I actually exchanged the extremely precious dragon heart and dragon horn for this small pill.

The swordsman became angrier the more he thought about it, because he had been waiting outside for decades before he killed the dragon.

But when he thought of the unfathomable nature of Sword Master Asuka and the shop owner, he held back.

After finding a cave, he swallowed the chalcedony pill in one gulp and entered a state of seclusion.

He wanted to see if this thing was really as magical as that person said.

……

A few days later, the swordsman visited Beihaizhai again.

But when he came again, he had become extremely respectful.

Xie Que didn't say much, but just asked the swordsman to promote him more.

After all, only when there are more guests can one exchange more treasures.

Only with your own cave can you quickly condense your qi and blood to transform the world.

After the swordsman left, I don't know if it was because of his promotion.

The reputation of "Beihaizhai" spread quickly, and many guests came here.

They all mentioned names and wanted to exchange for a "Jadeite Pill".

Xie Que was also happy about this. The chalcedony pill was simple and easy to refine, and he could produce more than ten pills in one furnace.

Its effect is not only to heal injuries, but also to help people break through bottlenecks.

Although some people wanted to test the strength of "Hokaisai", they were easily suppressed by Furukawa Hideki.

Three years passed easily in such a time.
Perhaps those hermits could no longer sit still, and in "Shenban", 100,000 miles away from Dongshan Road, some monks finally started to rebel.

The unrest quickly spread to Miyazaki in Kyushu, and it took a full six months to completely suppress it.

Fortunately, in the end, the God Worship House finally took action, and those rebels were easily suppressed by the God Worshipers who were immortal and had almost infinite spiritual power.

Xie Que also knew that Lord Rilian was probably truly trapped in the heavenly barrier.

He was neither anxious nor impatient. After giving an order to Furukawa Hideki, he continued to live his life as before.

But beside him, the famous "Flying Bird Sword Saint" was gone.

Seven days later, in Kyoto, where the Tenbakufu was located, several shocking secrets spread.
That is, once you worship the gods, the upper limit of your cultivation will remain at Shao Yun, and you will never make any further progress!

Their immortality is also false, and any great Onmyoji or Great Yin-Yang Master who possesses divinity can easily wipe them out.

What is even more terrifying is that because "Her Majesty Amaterasu" proclaimed herself as the Goddess, she angered "God's will", so she fell into a deep sleep and could not wake up.

As soon as this news came out, the entire Kyushu and four islands of Yingzhou were suddenly in chaos.

Countless hermits began to test whether Lady Amaterasu was truly "in a deep sleep and unable to wake up."

Along with this, more than ten "Spirit Kings" fell outside the city of Kyoto, announcing the beginning of the troubled times! (End of this chapter)
