Becoming a God by Searching Mountains and Subduing Demons

Deep in the treasure house, there was an old and mysterious atmosphere, and faint light was swaying everywhere, as if telling the vicissitudes of time.

Jiang Yue took steady steps, his eyes scanning the treasure house vigilantly, the blood in his body flowing faintly, and every inch of the air was filled with unknown danger.

His eyes were as sharp as an eagle's. He did not miss any corner or any treasure that might contain secrets.

Suddenly, Jiang Yue's sight seemed to be pulled by an invisible force and suddenly fixed on a bronze box in the corner.

The box was only the size of a palm, lying there quietly, as if forgotten by time.

Its surface was covered with dark green copper rust, mottled and mottled, like traces carved by time, telling the past. However, the moment Jiang Yue opened his divine eyes, the bronze box underwent amazing changes.

Under the reflection of the divine eyes, a faint light like blood was flowing on the surface of the box. The light was like a strange power, carrying a hint of indescribable evil aura, as if provoking Jiang Yue's perception.

The moment Jiang Yue's eyes touched the glimmer, a sharp burning pain came from the center of his eyebrows, as if thousands of silver needles were running wildly along his meridians, and the piercing pain instantly spread throughout his body. His body suddenly stiffened, a trace of pain flashed across his face, and he subconsciously raised his hand to press his forehead.

As he moved, wisps of golden mist seeped out from between his fingers. The golden mist glowed mysteriously in the darkness, echoing with the faint glow of the blood patterns on the bronze box, as if a silent contest was going on.

"General Zhao, this thing..." Jiang Yue endured the pain and was about to ask, but was interrupted by an anxious figure. Zhao Jinghuan rushed over like a gust of wind, suddenly stretched out his hand, and pressed Jiang Yue's shoulder heavily.

This sky-patrolling admiral, who usually appears to be heroic, free and awe-inspiring, now has a look as solemn as the sky before a storm. His forehead is covered with fine beads of sweat that slide down his cheeks. Even sweat seeps from the gaps in his armor, flashing a strange light in the dim light.

"Brother Jiang," Zhao Jinghuan's voice was low and hoarse, with a hint of unquestionable majesty, "This is the forbidden item that the late emperor personally sealed - 'Star Devouring Iron'. Three hundred years ago, this Star Devouring Box suddenly appeared in the world, and overnight, it sucked away the vitality of one prefecture and thirteen counties."

"The once prosperous city became desolate and ruined in just a few days, with countless people losing their lives in this disaster. The wailing and crying echoed between heaven and earth for a long time.

"In order to seal this terrible forbidden object, the late emperor led many powerful men and spent countless efforts and costs to suppress it here. Now, among the nine layers of restrictions in this treasure house, this object occupies one layer alone, which shows how dangerous it is."

After hearing Zhao Jinghuan's thrilling story, Jiang Yue not only did not show the slightest fear, but his eyes instantly lit up with excitement and curiosity, and a strong interest surged in his heart like a surging tide.

He licked his lips subconsciously, looking like a child who had discovered an invaluable treasure.

"It can actually devour human vitality? Such an evil thing..." Jiang Yue murmured to himself, with a hint of excitement in his voice that was hard to conceal.

In his opinion, although this Star Devouring Iron was extremely evil, it contained great power, which was full of fatal attraction to him. His mind was working rapidly, and various novel ideas kept flashing like sparks, thinking about how to use this power for his own benefit.

"I wonder if Master has any way to deal with it and integrate it into the weapon." Jiang Yue narrowed his eyes slightly, a sly smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he said softly.

In his imagination, if he could integrate the power of Star-Eating Iron into his weapon, his strength would surely make a qualitative leap, and he would have more powerful assistance on his future path of cultivation.

Then, Jiang Yue slowly turned his head and looked at Zhao Jinghuan with a sharp gaze, revealing determination and confidence. "Let me take a look at the martial arts manual first. I occasionally felt something in the Immortal God Ruins, and now it's time to need more martial arts."

His tone was calm and steady, yet it carried an unquestionable momentum. At this moment, he already had a clear goal in mind, which was to find a technique suitable for him in this treasure house, further improve his strength, and prepare for controlling the power of Star Devouring Iron in the future.

Zhao Jinghuan looked at Jiang Yue's eager look and couldn't help but worry in his heart. He knew Jiang Yue's character very well. Once he decided on something, he would pursue it regardless of everything.

But this Star Devouring Iron is too dangerous. If you are not careful, it will bring disaster. He opened his mouth and wanted to dissuade Jiang Yue, but swallowed the words back. He knew that Jiang Yue was determined and no matter how much he said, it would be useless. He could only guard him silently and hope that Jiang Yue would not go astray.

The two said no more and walked with steady steps towards the area in the treasury where the martial arts books were kept.

Along the way, Jiang Yue's eyes were always focused and firm, his heart was full of longing and expectation for the future, as if he had already seen the scene of himself holding a magic weapon and dominating the world.

Zhao Jinghuan was heavy-hearted. He looked back from time to time at the Star-Eating Iron lying quietly in the corner, praying silently in his heart that everything would be safe and sound.

As you step into the area of ​​the treasury where the martial arts manuals are stored, a strong bookish scent hits you in the face.

What comes into view are rows of tall and neatly arranged bookshelves, which are filled with a variety of classics. Some are brand new, while others are old and yellowed. Each book carries an unknown secret of spiritual practice.

These books were stacked densely together, like an ocean of knowledge, bottomless and emitting a mysterious and alluring light. Jiang Yue stood in front of this vast sea of ​​books, with a flash of amazement and shock in his eyes.

He knew very well that every book here contained endless wisdom and power. If he could comprehend the skills that suited him, he would take a giant step forward on the path of cultivation.

There are so many classics stored in the treasure house, and Jiang Yue knows that it is impossible for him to study and understand all of them carefully at once.

He could only suppress his inner urgency and browse through them roughly to get a general idea and look for those techniques that suit him. His eyes swept across the covers of the techniques manuals, which recorded a variety of cultivation methods - knife techniques, sword techniques, bow techniques...

Each kind of martial arts has a unique style and power, which dazzled Jiang Yue and filled his heart with the urge to try.

Although most people know the principle of "biting off more than you can chew", how can Jiang Yue, who possesses the magical power of fighting, be measured by the standards of ordinary people?

The immortal charm in the Immortal God Ruins gave him a far superior understanding and talent, giving him a unique advantage on the road of cultivation. The skills that were obscure and difficult to practice in the eyes of others could be easily understood by him.

The Immortal Fighting Technique can serve as a general outline that can accommodate all kinds of things!
With this unique talent, Jiang Yue firmly believed that he could find his own opportunity among the numerous martial arts, integrate multiple martial arts, and create a more powerful force.

With this confidence and expectation, Jiang Yue quickly shuttled between the bookshelves, his hands flipping through the books one after another like a phantom. His eyes were focused and sharp, not missing any key information.

In a short period of time, he had skimmed through dozens of exercises with his amazing reading speed and comprehension.

After reading each book, he would silently think about it and analyze its advantages and disadvantages, as well as how it fits with himself.

Although some techniques were extremely exquisite, they did not match his practice philosophy and fighting style, so he had to give them up with regret; while some techniques made his eyes light up, and a strong desire to practice welled up in his heart. Jiang Yue kept shuttling and screening among the vast sea of ​​techniques, his eyes were always firm and focused, and he did not miss any possible opportunity.

Time passed quietly, his fingertips quickly moved across one ancient book after another, his mind was like a high-speed machine, analyzing in detail the characteristics, advantages and disadvantages of each martial art.

Finally, after countless screenings and weighings, Jiang Yue stopped what he was doing and looked at the three books of martial arts, his eyes flashing with irrepressible excitement and anticipation.

One of the sword techniques was called Blood Blade. The moment he opened the book, a sharp sword intent rushed towards him, as if countless sharp blades were crisscrossing in front of him.

Jiang Yue studied it carefully and found that the moves of this blood-red sword were fierce and sharp. Each move contained tremendous power. When a move was made, the sword light shone like blood-red light, and it could burst out with astonishing lethality in an instant. The power was terrifying.

Moreover, this sword technique makes extremely sophisticated use of strength. If one can cultivate it to perfection, one will surely gain the upper hand in battle and terrify the enemy.

The other style is the Immortal Sword Technique. This sword technique secret book is simple and heavy. When you open the page, a light and elegant atmosphere lingers. The sword moves are unpredictable, alternating between real and fake, and emphasize the use of softness to overcome hardness and cleverness to win.

Every movement of the sword technique is smooth and natural, like flowing water, but it also hides a killer move inadvertently, making it hard to defend against. Jiang Yue knows that this kind of sword technique and his fighting style may complement each other and give the enemy a fatal blow at a critical moment.

There is another set of skills which is somewhat special, which is boxing and kicking skills.

This kind of boxing and kicking skills does not have fancy moves, but it is full of simplicity and heaviness. Every punch and every palm contains a powerful explosive force, as if it can split mountains and crack rocks.

It focuses on the use of body strength and coordination, gathers the strength of the whole body at one point, and each move is full of masculinity. Jiang Yue feels that if this boxing and kicking skill is successfully practiced, it will play a huge role in close combat and become another killer weapon of his.

The royal treasury has a profound heritage, and Jiang Yue now has the privilege of entering and viewing the classics at will, which allows him to roam freely in this ocean of knowledge.

However, the martial arts secret manuals in the treasury are all extremely precious treasures. If one wants to take the original ones out, there are strict restrictions and there are only three places.

The three martial arts books selected by Jiang Yue are undoubtedly the essence he carefully selected from numerous classics.

Jiang Yue slowly closed the last selected martial arts secret book in his hand, his fingers gently stroked the yellowed pages, his eyes full of determination.

He stacked the three manuals neatly together and placed them on the table in front of him. Then he raised his head and glanced around the treasure house. The plans for future training and weapon forging became clearer in his mind.

He had already made up his mind about the choice of materials, and at this moment, he was as determined as Mount Tai. His eyes passed over the piles of various rare treasures and fell directly on the Star-Eating Iron in the corner that exuded a strange aura.

The Star-Eating Iron lay there quietly, with a mysterious and dangerous glimmer flowing on its surface, as if silently telling of its own extraordinary and evil. Although it contained great danger, Jiang Yue firmly believed that as long as it was used properly, this Star-Eating Iron would become the key material of his magic weapon and bring a qualitative leap in his strength.

Taking a deep breath, Jiang Yue straightened his back and walked towards Zhao Jinghuan with steady and powerful steps.

His eyes were firm and confident, and he exuded a strong aura. When he came to Zhao Jinghuan, Jiang Yue bowed slightly and said firmly: "General Zhao, I have chosen. I want to take these three skills and the Star Devouring Iron out of the treasure house."

His voice was not loud, but it echoed clearly in this empty treasure house, and every word revealed his unquestionable determination.

When Zhao Jinghuan heard this, his expression changed slightly, and a hint of worry and hesitation flashed in his eyes.

He knew very well how terrifying the Star-Eating Iron was. It was an evil thing that even the previous emperor was afraid of. Once it fell into the hands of someone with evil intentions, the consequences would be disastrous.

But looking at Jiang Yue's determined eyes, he understood that once the young man in front of him made a decision, it would be difficult to change it. After a moment of silence, Zhao Jinghuan slowly said: "Brother Jiang, the Star Devouring Iron is too dangerous. Are you sure you want to take it? If something unexpected happens, the consequences may not be something that ordinary people can bear."

Jiang Yue raised his lips slightly, revealing a confident smile, and said: "General Zhao, I understand the risks involved. But I am confident that I can control it and turn it into a boost. Please believe me, I will not let its power bring disaster to the world."

"My master is an expert in blacksmithing. He should know how to deal with this."

His words were full of confidence in himself, and made Zhao Jinghuan feel his firm belief.

Zhao Jinghuan sighed and nodded helplessly: "Since you have made up your mind, I will help you with the relevant procedures. But you must be careful and don't take it lightly."

"By the way, your master... is said to be the previous Sky Patrol Spiritual Officer, Xu Chong?"

Hearing this, Jiang Yue nodded slightly.

Given the other party's position, even if he had never worked with the master, he must have at least heard of him. The name of the vocational school was not surprising.

The Sky Patrol General has the functions of commanding the army and eliminating troubles, while the Spirit Officer is like a blade that points internally. Their status is equal, and both are high-ranking positions in the Sky Patrol Department.

Seeing Jiang Yue nod, Zhao Jinghuan slowly said: "The matter of Lingguan's retirement is no longer a secret now."

"It's a pity that I was not able to see him off and see his elegance."

"During the Yunzhou Rebellion, he finally stood up. Although he is no longer in office, Zhao still admires him very much."

"Rebellion in Yunzhou?!"

Jiang Yue frowned and asked, "Has it come to this? I was calm before I left, how could it be..."

What kind of dispute could be defined as "chaos" by the Sky Patrol?
Yunzhou, is it really this critical? !
