Although Lin Bai felt that "Qinglian Sword Technique" had an extraordinary origin, he could never find a trick.

Now, Lin Bai regarded "Qinglian Sword Art" as a treasure.

The nine sword techniques in the sword manual are the gateway to the treasure.

The "trick" that Lin Bai mentioned is the key to opening the door.

Only if Lin Bai can find this trick and open this treasure can he get a glimpse of the true meaning of "Qinglian Sword Technique".

After many days of research, Lin Bai still made no progress, and he couldn't help but feel a little bored.

Lin Bai stopped in time to avoid going crazy and falling into a situation that would never be recovered.

Chen You had been chatting with Lin Bai before, but when he saw Lin Bai closing his eyes and concentrating, he was sensible and did not disturb Lin Bai. He stood alone in front of the railing and looked at the beautiful mountains and rivers passing by outside the spirit boat.

Lin Bai woke up, walked to Chen You, took a look at the landscape outside, and asked, "Where are we?"

Chen You said with a smile: "If nothing else happens, we still have five days to reach King Wu City in Kezhou, which is the headquarters of the Shanhe Chamber of Commerce."

There are still five days left, which is not long.

Lin Bai looked back at the crowds of warriors on the deck, his eyes filled with meaning.

Lin Bai noticed that many warriors on the deck seemed to have lost their composure. Their eyes were looking into the cabin intentionally or unintentionally, as if they were looking for the best opportunity to take action.

Ever since the old fisherman told Lin Bai, Chen You and others that there was a reward in the Dark World, Lin Bai sensed that at least half of the people on the deck might be the killers of the Dark World.

"Brother Chen, in my opinion, there are probably more killers on this spirit boat than there are guards."

"At least half of the temporary guards recruited by the Shanhe Chamber of Commerce may be killers in the dark world."

"We are now close to King Wu's city. If they don't take action, they will have no chance."

"So I predict...either tonight or tomorrow night, there will be a battle on this spirit boat."

Lin Bai moved his lips and teeth slightly, transmitting the sound into the secret, and said to Chen You.

When Chen You heard this, the smile on his face instantly froze. He turned back and glanced at the warrior on the spirit boat, his eyes deepening.

"Brother Lin means..."

Chen You asked Lin Bai what he meant.

Lin Bai said: "I'm thinking that if a fight really breaks out, should we help the Shanhe Chamber of Commerce? Or should we take the opportunity to escape?"

Chen You said righteously: "Brother Lin, when we were in distress, it was Shanhe Merchant Ship who came to help us."

"The so-called kindness of a drop of water should be repaid by a spring of water."

"Besides, we also agreed to the Shanhe Chamber of Commerce as a temporary guard. If the Shanhe Chamber of Commerce encounters a strong enemy, I will naturally help."

Lin Bai nodded and said with a smile: "I understand!"

Chen You asked: "Brother Lin, don't you want to help Shanhe Chamber of Commerce?"

Lin Bai smiled and said: "Of course we have to help, but the prerequisite is that we do what we can; if the warriors who attack the Shanhe Chamber of Commerce are strong men in the Taiyi Daoguo realm, then even if we want to help the Shanhe Chamber of Commerce, we will be powerless. I just gave my life in vain."

"If it is within my capabilities, I will naturally protect the Shanhe Chamber of Commerce."

After uniting the front with Chen You, Lin Bai felt a little relieved.

In fact, Lin Bai had the same idea as Chen You.

Since you agreed to be the temporary guard of Shanhe Chamber of Commerce, you should take responsibility.

As long as it is within his ability, Lin Bai will try his best to help Shanhe Chamber of Commerce.

"Is there any sect in Chu country?"

Lin Bai suddenly changed the subject and asked.

"What? Brother Lin is interested in the sect?"

Chen You asked with interest.

Lin Bai smiled and said: "No, it's just that I have been to many dynasties and found that there are many sects in each dynasty."

"Some dynasties even advocate sects and regard them as 'state religion' or 'holy religion'."

Chen You smiled, shook his head and said, "In Chu State, imperial power is supreme."

"Each sect has different doctrines, and some of them even override martial arts and imperial power."

"Do you think the Chu State will tolerate a sect riding on the imperial power of the Chu State?"

"That's naturally impossible."

Chen You first denied the idea that there were sects in the Chu dynasty.

Lin Bai also understood the meaning of Chen You's words. Among the many dynasties that Lin Bai had seen, there were "state teachers" and "state religion".

Moreover, the power of many sects is even second only to the imperial power.

If in a certain era, the emperor of the dynasty was fatuous and incompetent, he would even allow sects to override the imperial power.

Naturally, Chu State could not tolerate the emergence of sects in the dynasty.

Chen You said: "Although there are no sects in the Chu Kingdom, there are many sects in the vast territory of the Chu Kingdom."

"As Brother Lin said, many sects call themselves 'holy religions'."

"For example, there is a sect in Kezhou, which is an extremely ancient force."

"The Chu State tried to eradicate this sect countless times, but in the end the Chu State discovered that no matter how they were eradicated, they would reappear in the world like mushrooms after a rain."

"One of the functions of the Zhaoxing Division is to capture and kill these cultists."

An idea flashed in Lin Bai's mind, and he thought of the letter paper brought back by the crow.

Could it be that the "holy religion" mentioned on the letter refers to the sect in Kezhou?

"What sects are there in Kezhou?"

Lin Bai asked with a smile.

Chen You said: "Blood God Sect!"

"The statue worshiped by the Blood God Sect is called the Blood God."

"According to legend, he was once a powerful man in the demon world who could dominate the world."

"He created a set of exercises called "Blood Nerve"."

"A warrior who practices "Blood Nerve" will circulate the energy and blood throughout his body, and condense into a blood god in his dantian."

"The condensed blood god possesses extremely powerful power."

"But this kind of condensed blood god has a huge flaw, that is, the blood god will independently absorb the host's whole body's energy and blood as nutrients."

"Over time, the host's energy and blood will become less and less, until eventually the blood god drains the host's energy, blood and vitality, the host is destroyed, and the blood god will disappear and disappear."

"In order to avoid death, many warriors who practice "Blood Nerve" will start killing when they sense that the Blood God is trying to absorb the power of their own blood."

"Catch the other warriors, or kill them, release the Blood God, and let the Blood God absorb the energy and blood power of the other warriors."

"In this way, we can ensure that the Blood God does not absorb his own energy and blood, and also ensure his chance of survival."

Lin Bai's eyes flashed, quite surprised.

Chen You continued: "The founder of the Blood God Sect is said to have been a powerful Gu Dao in the southern region of the Demon Realm. This set of "Blood Nerves" was created by him based on the technique of cultivating Gu. It is quite powerful. .”
