Martial Arts World Assassin

Chapter 304: Blue Dragon Relics
Xiao Min explained the whole story: "My grandfather still hasn't escaped from the Nine Stars Tomb. He was trapped in the tomb in order to retrieve the Blue Dragon Relic, but he was afraid that it would delay the young master's sword-making, so he had no choice but to send me back."

She took out a brocade box from her arms and handed it to Huang Sixi.

Huang Sixi opened the box and saw a pale gray crystal inside, which was shaped like his Nagarjuna relic.

He then asked Xiao Min: "Is this the Canglong relic? Who left it behind?"

Xiao Min said, "Grandpa said that he was the reincarnation of a martial arts master from the late Sui and early Tang dynasties. Grandpa didn't tell me his specific name, but said that his nickname was the Eastern Blue Dragon. He once forged a Datong sword. The magic weapon that Grandpa ordered me to bring to you is his sword."

Huang Sixi held the Canglong relic in his palm, raised his other hand slightly, and held the Datong Sword in front of him.

This sword had followed its master into battle during the turbulent times, killing countless enemies, but the blade had never been stained with blood, because its master had extraordinary martial arts skills and the sword energy could reach hundreds of feet away and cut off the enemy's head.

The Sword Master of Datong was one of the heroes vying for supremacy in the Central Plains at the end of the Sui Dynasty. He had the fate of "Eastern Azure Dragon" and was named after it. Originally, he was extremely powerful and the Li Tang clan was not sure of defeating him. However, in order to avoid endless killing, he took the initiative to withdraw from the struggle for supremacy.

With the establishment of the Tang court, the country was at peace and the people were at peace. Dongfang Canglong also fled to the northern region and vowed never to return to the Central Plains. Because of his fate of killing, he was worried that his descendants with the blood of "Eastern Canglong" would violate the ancestral teachings, so he built a nine-star dragon cave for himself to prevent his descendants from fighting again.

Xiao Min once followed the Clay Buddha to explore this tomb, and she knew the whole story in great detail: "The ancients used Qimen Fengshui to locate cemeteries, all for the purpose of blessing future generations, but the Nine Star Hidden Dragon Cave had another purpose. In order not to destroy the Fengshui of this tomb, my grandfather was very careful when taking the Blue Dragon Relic and the Datong Sword, and it took him two years to finally succeed."

Huang Sixi shook his head at Xiao Min and said, "Your grandfather was not completely successful. Although he took out the relics and the magic weapon, he was trapped in the tomb. Is he in danger? How can we rescue him?"

If the clay Buddha's life was hanging by a thread, Huang Sixi would set off for the Northern Territory right now.

If the clay Buddha is merely in trouble and his life is not in danger in the short term, Huang Sixi will wait until the sword is forged before rescuing him.

"Thank you for your concern!" Xiao Min smiled, not showing any worry.

"In fact, grandpa got into trouble because he was trying to comprehend the martial arts left by Eastern Blue Dragon. He is not in any danger and will probably be out of trouble in a year at most! When he sent me back, he told me not to go back to the cemetery to look for him. If I really miss him, I can move to Shanhaiguan first and wait for him!"

The Nine-Star Hidden Dragon Cave where the Clay Buddha was trapped is located in the snow-capped mountains in the far north adjacent to the East China Sea. Shanhaiguan is the only way to the north and is also a strategic fortress in and out of China.

Huang Sixi was puzzled after hearing about the situation of the clay Buddha: "Is he trapped in the cemetery just to inherit martial arts? The poisonous sores on his body have not healed completely. If he can rush out of the cemetery without risking his life, he should try to come back first. After the poisonous sores are completely healed, it won't be too late to return to the cemetery to study martial arts!"

"Well, what you said makes sense, my grandfather also said so!" Xiao Min nodded to Huang Sixi, but then said:

"But you don't know, young master. When grandpa took the blue dragon relic, he didn't know that there was another power in it. He accidentally absorbed this power, which made his body unable to move. He needs to retreat to transform the power, otherwise his true power will flow backwards and he will die."

"What kind of strange power can be contained in the relic?" Huang Sixi picked up the Canglong relic and observed it carefully. He did not detect any strange power fluctuations. He asked Xiao Min:
"Your grandfather absorbed the power of the relic. Could it be that his power has increased?"

Huang Sixi knew that there were many ancient treasures in the world of martial arts that could rapidly increase one's internal strength in a short period of time. As long as the opportunity was good enough, teenage boys and girls could become top masters right away.

The Canglong Relics is such a rare treasure that can instantly increase one’s martial arts skills.

Xiao Min widened her dark eyes and praised, "Sir, you are right. The Blue Dragon Relic can really improve your skills! When Grandpa first broke into the Nine Star Hidden Dragon Cave, he asked me to stay outside the tomb in case I was needed. When he was trapped by the Blue Dragon Relic's power, he sent me a message and asked me to escort the Blue Dragon Relic and the Datong Sword for him!"

Her parents died early, and she grew up with the Clay Buddha. When Xiongba sent people to capture the Clay Buddha, the Clay Buddha first placed her in the care of a farmer.

Huang Sixi rescued the Clay Buddha from the Tianxiahui. The Clay Buddha decided to go to the Northern Region to find the relics and magic weapons for Huang Sixi. Before going north, the Clay Buddha took Xiao Min away from a farmer's house, and then led Xiao Min to the Jiuxing Canglong Cave to look for the tomb.

As the journey was long and Xiao Min was only in her early teens at the time, the Clay Bodhisattva was afraid that Xiao Min could not withstand the journey and hesitated whether to take Xiao Min with him. Later, the Clay Bodhisattva told Xiao Min about his fortune and found out that Xiao Min's luck was in the Northern Region, so he felt relieved to let Xiao Min go.

Xiao Min said happily, "Before I parted with grandpa, he was worried that I was not strong enough in fighting, so he passed on some of the power of the Blue Dragon Relic that he absorbed to me. As a result, my power increased greatly. When I returned south, I ran like a horse and practiced Qinggong for a whole day and night without feeling tired! On the way, I encountered bandits blocking the way, but I was not afraid of them. I sent them away with just three punches and two kicks!"

Huang Sixi waved to Xiao Min and said, "Stretch out your arm, I will test your inner strength!"

Xiao Min immediately lifted up her sleeves and raised her wrists.

Huang Sixi took a look and was surprised to find that this girl's internal strength was almost the same as those of masters like Nie Renwang and Shi Wuzun, and she could even catch up with the Sword Demon.

And this is only a part of the true power of the Canglong Relics. If the Clay Buddha completely absorbs the strange power contained in the Canglong Relics, it is unknown to what extent his martial arts power will increase.

Huang Sixi held the Canglong Relic in front of Xiao Min and asked, "How did you absorb the strange power in this relic? Why can't I sense any fluctuations in power?"

Xiao Min shrugged at him: "My grandfather has already sucked out all the strange power inside the relic, so you naturally can't sense it!"

Huang Sixi suddenly felt bored and asked, "Since the relic has lost its inner power, it will also affect the sword forging, right?"

“It won’t affect you at all!”

Xiao Min quickly shook her head: "Sir, these true powers are injected into the Canglong Relics from the outside, not generated naturally by the Canglong Relics. Although the true power is gone, the relic can still be used by you to forge swords. Grandfather specifically told me to make it clear to you that he did not destroy the relic without authorization!"

"That's good!"

Huang Sixi commissioned the Clay Buddha to find the Canglong Relics for the sole purpose of forging the sword. As for whether he could absorb the true power of the Canglong Relics to increase his power, this was an unexpected matter.

The Clay Buddha traveled thousands of miles to the Jiuxing Dragon Cave and it took him three years to obtain the Canglong Relics. He and Xiao Min were able to rely on the Canglong Relics to rapidly increase their power. This was the reward that the grandfather and grandson deserved after all their hard work.

After Huang Sixi learned about the situation of the Canglong Relic and the Datong Sword, he finally said to Xiao Min: "You stay in the villa first. When I succeed in forging the sword, I will accompany you to the Northern Territory to bring back your grandfather."

After saying that, he called Chuchu and asked Chuchu to arrange accommodation for Xiaomin.

Seeing Chuchu was gentle and kind, with elegant clothes and beautiful hair, Xiaomin knew that Chuchu was the mistress of the villa, so she greeted her respectfully: "Xiaomin greets the madam!"

Chuchu stepped forward and held Xiaomin, saying with a smile: "You're welcome, just call me sister-in-law."

Chuchu and Huang Sixi have been married for two years, and she is the one who manages all the affairs of the villa.

Since she built a villa in the middle of the lake, she also opened a medicinal garden along the lake. She learned beekeeping skills from Huang Sixi, which resulted in the garden being full of flowers and a beautiful environment.

She first prepared meals for Xiao Min, and after Xiao Min had eaten and drunk her fill, she originally planned to take Xiao Min to visit her fragrant and blessed land.

But when she saw Xiao Min looked tired, probably because she had been traveling all night, she took Xiao Min to the guest room. Xiao Min had been sleeping in the open for the past month and really wanted to have a good sleep. As soon as she touched the bed, she fell asleep.

She waited until Xiao Min fell asleep, then closed the door and went out, calling a swarm of bees to protect the outside of the village. Then she asked Roaring Sky Dog to accompany her to the Sword Pool to find Huang Sixi.

Jianglong Villa was built in the middle of a lake. Outside the lake was originally the territory of Baijian Villa. Three years ago, the manor building was burned down in a fire. The ruins were not rebuilt and all the territory was turned into a flower forest by Chu Chu.

At present, Jianglong Villa is the center, and there are green bamboo forests and peach blossom forests for several miles outside the villa. Huang Sixi also taught Chuchu the Qimen Five Elements Formation and the Soul Transferring Illusion Technique. In the past three years, Chuchu has devoted all her thoughts to the planning of the villa, and she is also very happy about it. The sword pool is also covered by bamboo forests all over the mountain.

Huang Sixi built two circles of open-air stone sword rooms on the top of the mountain. Even if the sword pool cracked, it would be enough to ensure that the underground fire would not spread.

Chu Chu and Xiao Tian Dog were both familiar with the route, and they walked through the bamboo forest path and headed straight for the sword room on the top of the mountain.

Huang Sixi is directing the Fire Kirin to refine the Datong Sword.

Chuchu found a chair and sat down, smiling sweetly, and asked, "Brother, you spent so much effort to forge a sword. When it is officially out of the furnace, will this sword fly?"

Huang Sixi turned around and glanced at her: "How could it fly? I didn't forge a magic sword!"

Chu Chu sighed softly: "Since it's not a magic sword, why did you work so hard? You recast all the magic weapons such as the Snow Drinking Sword, the Wushuang Sword, and the Hero Sword, but the new swords you cast can neither fly, nor spit fire, nor emit lasers. Aren't they no different from ordinary magic weapons?"

Huang Sixi forged the sword not to obtain some magical weapon, but for the "Sword Heart Clear" mentality on the sword. This could not be explained to Chu Chu.

He avoided the question: "I asked you to entertain Xiao Min, what are you doing here?"

Chuchu said softly, "Xiaomin hasn't had a good night's sleep for a few days. She is resting in the village and doesn't need my care for the time being. I just want to stay with my brother, so I came to find you."

Her eyes were full of Huang Sixi, and her heart was filled with unspeakable tenderness and sweetness. In the past few years, she seldom went out and lived in seclusion in Jianglong Villa with Huang Sixi, leading a peaceful life away from the world. Although her life was simple, she was extremely happy.

Huang Sixi pointed at the blazing flames under the sword furnace and said with a smile, "It's very hot here, like a steamer. Aren't you afraid of being roasted by the fire?"

Chuchu raised her fingertips, and a layer of frost formed on her fair and rosy skin: "I have perfected the "Heavenly Frost Fist" and can use the last move "Ao Xue Ling Shuang". When I encounter fire attack, the Guiyuan Qi rotates in my body and the coldness protects my body. I am not afraid of heat at all."

Huang Sixi nodded at her: "That's great. You can master the Heavenly Frost Fist. Your Guiyuan Qi is not weak. How far have you practiced the Cloud-Removing Palm and the Wind God Leg?"

Chuchu said clearly, "Brother, you know that I like to cook, grow flowers and raise bees. Martial arts are not my interest. Learning the "Sky Frost Fist" is enough. If I really have free time, I might as well go and sew a piece of clothing for you, brother."

If it wasn't for the desire to cool down when coming to the Sword Pond, she wouldn't even want to learn the "Sky Frost Fist".

Huang Sixi did not force him: "Then you can make clothes. In the future, I will find you some relics that can increase your martial arts skills without the hard work of practicing martial arts."

Not only did he pass on "Three-part Return to Origin Qi" to Chu Chu, he also practiced it himself.

During these three years, he has already mastered the "Sky Frost Fist", "Wind God Leg", "Paiyun Palm" and "Three-Point Divine Finger" to perfection.

The Guiyuan true Qi is becoming increasingly profound. Although it is still inferior to the internal strength of the sword saint that has been infused into his body, it is enough to rival the internal strength of the top masters in the world.

He also regularly collected the fire blood of the Fire Qilin and used Rama's true Qi to transform it into blood and temper his body.

The amount of fire and blood he has refined so far far exceeds the amount of blood stained on Yue Qilin's arm, and he has also made some progress in tempering his body. Now he does not need to use his true Qi to protect his body. He can block attacks from ordinary swords and arrows and ensure that he will remain unscathed.

However, Huang Sixi's body still couldn't withstand the internal force attack from the martial arts master. If he wanted to continue to strengthen his body's natural defense, he needed to find other ways.

During the three years he lived in seclusion in Jianglong Villa, he practiced both internal and external skills, and his martial arts skills had reached a high level.

The only shortcoming is that the sword was not completed.

He stayed in the sword pool for the next few months. After he refined the Datong Sword into a sword heart, he embedded it into the last sword seal of the Dragon Subduing Sword.

At this point, the nine soldiers are united.

He made further efforts, letting the Fire Kirin continue to spit fire, preparing to completely merge the body of the Dragon Subduing Sword with the eight sword hearts.

At this time, the rejection phenomenon that the clay Buddha talked about suddenly appeared. Whenever he wanted to merge the two sword hearts into one, there would always be a repulsion between the different forces, and even the sword heart would be shaken away from the sword seal.

He immediately merged the Azure Dragon Relic into the Dragon Subduing Sword, and the rejection disappeared.

As the Fire Kirin continued to increase its firepower, the eight sword hearts were all integrated into the Dragon Subduing Sword, which had turned into iron slurry, and Huang Sixi also began to quench and polish it.

Since the Sword Heart and the Dragon Subduing Sword had both been shrunk by the Fire Kirin's flames, Huang Sixi could easily shape the swords without having to put in any effort.

A few days later, the rare sword that combined nine magical weapons was finally ready to be produced.

Huang Sixi still named this sword "Dragon Subduing". It is two fingers wide, as thin as a bamboo stick, and dark gold in color.

Judging from its appearance and color alone, it is similar to the Dragon Sword that has not yet been recast.

But the belly of the Dragon Subduing Sword used to contain a line of different color shaped like a line of fire, like a wisp of flame flying in the belly of the sword, causing the sword body to emit a strange sword halo, shining brightly.

Now, the flame on the belly of the newly forged Dragon Subduing Sword has disappeared, but there is a sunken sword mark, which looks like a tear mark, or like an eye in the sword.

At first Huang Sixi thought that the sword mark was a flaw in the sword casting process. However, after he channeled his internal energy into the sword body, the true energy instantly surged into the sword mark. Then the sword light flashed, and the entire sword body emitted a dazzling sword halo.

Chuchu had been staying in the sword room for half a day today. She was drowsy at first, but when she saw the sword light in Huang Sixi's palm, she stood up immediately and shouted happily: "Brother, is this sword spiritual?"

Huang Sixi shook his head: "There is no spiritual connection, this is the sword light from my true energy!"

He swung his sword, and the sword energy slashed through the air several feet away, but the distance was not increased.

However, Huang Sixi seemed to realize something, and suddenly signaled to Chu Chu: "Attack me immediately, use your best "Sky Frost Fist", I want to prove my sword power!"

Chu Chu was quite confused. Any magic weapon was usually used to chop cattle and sheep to draw blood, or to chop swords and axes to test its sharpness.

Huang Sixi asked Chu Chu to use his fists to verify the power of the sword, which was quite unusual.

Chu Chu didn't ask any more questions for the time being, and just used all her strength to punch Huang Sixi in the air.

Unexpectedly, the power of her Tianshuang Fist was actually absorbed by the sword mark of the Dragon Subduing Sword, and then counterattacked back.

Chu Chu couldn't help but be stunned: "Brother, can this magic sword be used to fight against the opponent's force?"
