Chapter 445: Chapter 443: Fragment of the King’s Weapon

Under Linglong’s guidance, Zhong Lin completely ignored the violent gaze of the White Crane Elder and strode out of the market.

Although the White Crane Elder was violent, he still did not have the courage to make a move in the Tianqi Pavilion. Some people had tried before, but now even the grass on their graves had been replaced several times.

Linglong teased, “Zhong, my fellow practitioner, be careful. The White Crane Elder won’t just let things go. He won’t dare make a move in the Tianqi Pavilion, but outside is another matter.”

“Thank you for the reminder, I understand.”

Zhong Lin’s expression did not change; he simply nodded and smiled.

Linglong did not say more. Although she valued Zhong Lin’s abilities as a Pill Master, he was already a disciple of the Heavenly Sword Sacred Land, so there was no opportunity to recruit him. A simple reminder was enough.

Soon, the two left the market and entered a room where Ye Tao was already waiting, respectfully handing over a white jade plate.

“Manager, Senior, these are the remaining True Essence Pills.”

Zhong Lin reached out to take the jade token and directly wrote “6278” on the back of the token.

“Fellow practitioner Zhong, this jade token is a mark of a VIP of our Tianqi Pavilion, and the numbers on the back indicate the remaining number of True Essence Pills. In the future, you can use this jade token to shop directly at the Tianqi Pavilion. The token is under prohibition, so there’s no worry about damage. We at the Tianqi Pavilion will have a record, but you must cautiously keep it safe. The Tianqi Pavilion only recognizes the token, not the person,” Linglong said.

A Bank Card!

Zhong Lin raised an eyebrow, not expecting Tianqi Pavilion to have something similar to a bank card, which explained their rapid and successful development.

“I remember.”

He put the “bank card” into his storage bracelet and nodded to show he understood.

As the two spoke, another Martial Artist of the Xuandan Realm entered, holding a jade box. When opened, it revealed a fragment of a weapon inside.

This fragment was all sawtooth-shaped, like a disc, entirely transparent, and extremely hard. Runes faintly flowed within, and it even had a hint of a lively aura.

Zhong Lin’s pupils widened as he looked at the fragment in the jade box with astonishment.

“Is this… a King’s Weapon?”

Linglong laughed and said, “Fellow practitioner Zhong, you have good eye power. Yes, this is indeed a fragment of a King’s Weapon.”

So-called King’s Weapons are one level higher than Treasure Weapons, powerful weapons only nurtured by Sealing King Strong People.

Spiritual Artifact, Mystical Artifact, Treasure Artifact, King’s Weapon…

The primary difference between a King’s Weapon and other weapons is Spiritual Charm, something akin to the Artifact Spirit in novels from past lives, but not quite. It doesn’t develop its own consciousness, yet it can communicate with its owner’s heart and even protect the owner independently.

The fragment in sight possesses traces of a lively aura, something only a King’s Weapon can achieve.

“This fragment of a King’s Weapon was obtained by our Heavenly Enlightenment Pavilion Disciple from a relic, made of Ksitigarbha Crystal Stone, one of the most solid materials under heaven and earth. If integrated into your Lifebound Weapon, it will significantly enhance its power.”

“The price?”

Zhong Lin directly inquired about the price, clearly interested.

Linglong also smiled, “Not expensive, five thousand True Essence Pills, but since I’m so familiar with you, how about I offer a discount to four thousand seven hundred?”

Zhong Lin gave Linglong a deep glance, how coincidental this number was!

But he did not voice any objections. Although five thousand True Essence Pills were expensive, this was a fragment of a King’s Weapon. Even if it retained little power, the material alone was more than worth its value.

This is Ksitigarbha Crystal Stone; even integrating a bit into a regular Lifebound Weapon could greatly increase its hardness. The entire King’s Weapon was made from Ksitigarbha Crystal Stone; one can imagine how powerful this weapon must have been.

He directly took out the “bank card” that hadn’t even warmed up yet.

Linglong wiped it with a special technique, and the numbers on the back slowly changed, leaving only the number “28.”

“This is yours, fellow practitioner Zhong.”

Linglong smilingly pushed the jade box towards Zhong Lin.

Zhong Lin, also delighted, took the fragment in his hand, weighed it, and then put it into his Dantian.

As the fragment approached the Donghuang Bell, which had been silent until now, it began to tremble, conveying a sense of longing and greed.

The Spiritual Origin within him gently moved, and a force directly ejected some fragments into the Donghuang Bell.

In an instant, Donghuang Bell radiated bright light. Unlike typical Spiritual Artifacts that spread light into the void, it congregated with a spirituality, vaguely forming a blazing dome canopy.

Buzz!

At this moment, the entire Donghuang Bell emanated a powerful aura.

Bong!

A chime echoed throughout his Dantian, and the sound waves generated an invisible ripple, like an apocalyptic tidal wave, fiercely surging in all directions. Even Zhong Lin’s body subtly shook under this bell sound.

Whoosh whoosh~

As the bell sound quietly subsided, his Dantian gradually returned to peace.

The golden light slowly dispersed, revealing a colossal copper bell.

The copper bell was ancient, with carvings of mountains, rivers, and streams, alongside inscriptions representing birds, beasts, fish, and insects. Below these inscriptions, many hazy shadows emerged, indistinct.

“Great.”

Zhong Lin was overjoyed. Just some spare fragments had caused such a commotion with the Donghuang Bell. If fully refined, it would surely rise to the level of a Mystical Artifact.

Over the years, he had been preoccupied with his cultivation, neglecting the growth of his Lifebound Weapon. Now, the Donghuang Bell was finally catching up to the pace.

The Donghuang Bell at the Mystical Artifact level would soon start to display its true power, rather than just being a mere supporting role as before.

“Excellent, excellent. In the future, collecting more weapon fragments to merge into the Donghuang Bell could accelerate its transformation. Someday, it will resound with me across the entire Qingyuan World.”

Zhong Lin anticipated the Donghuang Bell’s growth. Although the process seemed distant, that day would inevitably come.

“Manager Linglong, if you come across similar items in the future, feel free to contact me. Elixirs are not an issue. Also, I am, in fact, an Eighth-grade Alchemist,” Zhong Lin said.

“Really?”

Linglong was initially stunned, then looked overjoyed.

“Fellow practitioner Zhong, please don’t misunderstand. I’m just amazed at my own luck, as an Eighth-grade Alchemist is truly astounding.”

“There will be many opportunities for cooperation in the future. Manager Linglong will undoubtedly discern this. I shall not impose any longer. Farewell.”

“Fellow practitioner Zhong, take care.”

After bidding farewell to Linglong, Zhong Lin left the Tianqi Pavilion.

“Heavenly Sword Sacred Land… Zhong Lin… Eighth-grade Alchemist… When did such a talented person appear in the Sword Domain?

Ye Tao, you’ve made a tremendous contribution. From now on, you’ll be under my command. Immediately report to me if fellow practitioner Zhong comes,” Linglong instructed Ye Tao beside her.

“Yes, thank you, ma’am.”

Ye Tao also looked jubilant, quickly bowing to express his loyalty.
