Imperial City Ruins, opportunities refreshed daily

Chapter 181 Multiple Magical Artifacts
The Four Symbols Demon Sect continued its preparations, with many powerful demons being drawn out, along with endless wealth being brought out at the same time.

This scene made Liu Tianheng extremely envious.

If he had so many resources, he believed he would definitely be able to advance to the Spirit Rank, or even the more powerful Dao Realm.

But soon, Liu Tianheng stopped envying her.

Because as long as he obtains the demon-sealing land of Mount Shu, he can become even more powerful.

So what if he's only at the Spirit Rank or the Dao Realm? He wants something higher and stronger.

The actions of the Four Symbols Demon Sect naturally attracted the attention of other forces in the surrounding area, who were also trying to find out why they were doing this.

It should be noted that the Four Symbols Demon Sect was able to become a top-tier sect in this region, but after countless years, it is now so easily considering relocation.

This has sparked much speculation.

However, the Four Symbols Demon Sect ignored the thoughts of other people and forces around them and continued to advance.

This is based on its own confidence and strength.

After all, the aura emanating from those two coffins was enough to make countless people retreat.

The capital of the Great Xuan Dynasty.

In the back courtyard of the Xu family, Xu Hao was enjoying the service of the three women. He came to the back courtyard to stretch.

"Today is the day I gather thirty opportunity refresh points. I hope this will allow me to soar to new heights!" Xu Hao said with anticipation.

He had been searching for cultivation resources, and now that his cultivation level could not be improved, he naturally wanted to improve his foundation in other ways.

Moreover, with the constant changes in the world, he also wanted to maintain his own combat strength to prevent old monsters from crawling out of other sealed lands from threatening him.

You have obtained an opportunity refresh point.

"Finally, we've got them all!" Xu Hao immediately stood up from the stone table, his face beaming with joy.

He hoped to acquire more magical artifacts for self-defense this time.

Xu Hao strode forward, quickly arriving at the main road outside the palace city via the passage connecting the Xu residence to the outer city.

Xu Hao rubbed his hands together, as if he were preparing for a weapon upgrade in his previous life.

A moment later, Xu Hao opened the divination panel.

[You have consumed thirty Opportunity Refresh Points. You will now set aside opportunities to seek out magical artifacts or similar items. Do you wish to proceed?]

Xu Hao made his choice immediately.

We're looking for opportunities for you...

Xu Hao waited quietly.

Finding these thirty opportunity refresh points takes time.

Moreover, the more time you have, the more opportunities you will have to find them.

After about half an incense stick's time, the information began to appear.

【Daily fortune telling.】

Liu Tianheng has located the powerful members of the Four Symbols Demon Sect. They are carrying Dao-level killing weapons and are heading towards the Great Xuan Dynasty. A storm is brewing...

"what?"

Xu Hao's expression darkened upon seeing this.

Liu Tianheng, that old bastard, is the chosen one of the planes. His trip out actually brought him a powerful enemy.

Previously it was the Dark Alliance, now it's the Four Symbols Demon Sect.

"However, you're too late. If you had arrived any earlier, I'm afraid I would have had to put in some extra effort. Unfortunately, I already possess a Nascent Soul level magic weapon by now."

"Once I obtain a Nascent Soul level magic weapon, no matter how many of you come, you'll all be nothing but lambs to the slaughter."

Xu Hao remained calm.

His cultivation level cannot break through to the Dao Realm, but he can obtain a magic weapon at the Nascent Soul level.

Although his cultivation level was insufficient to unleash the full power of a Nascent Soul level magic weapon, even a mere fraction of it was enough to contend with anything.

While Xu Hao waited, one by one, the lottery slots appeared on the Opportunity Panel.

[If you win the lottery, go to the 110th courtyard outside the palace and use the Domain Breaking Seal to break through space to obtain a Nascent Soul level secret treasure.]

This is the most powerful divine treasure the weasel has obtained, capable of condensing a divided spirit without harming itself. However, it has resorted to any means necessary to escape the sealed space! Its fate remains uncertain.

[You've won the lottery. Head to the thirty-seventh courtyard outside the Imperial Palace. Use the Domain-Breaking Seal to pierce through space and obtain a Nascent Soul level defensive magic artifact. (Draw/Equal)]

[A moderately auspicious sign. Proceed to the 136th courtyard outside the Imperial Palace and use the Domain-Breaking Seal to pierce through space to obtain a Nascent Soul level array plate. Minor good fortune.]

[A moderately auspicious sign. Proceed to the seventeenth annex outside the Imperial Palace and use the Domain-Breaking Seal to pierce through space to obtain a Nascent Soul-level attack magic weapon. Minor good fortune.]

[Auspicious sign! Proceed to the Imperial Palace and use the Domain-Breaking Seal to pierce through space to obtain a Shu Mountain Divine Transformation level flying sword. Great fortune!]

Xu Hao glanced at the scene and a look of joy immediately appeared on his face.

There were actually five draw slots.

Moreover, each lot has a corresponding Divine Transformation level magical artifact.

Moreover, these magical artifacts encompass attack, defense, and formations.

It was practically tailor-made for him.

Most importantly, none of these things have a time limit.

In other words, as long as Xu Hao follows the steps, he can obtain all the treasures.

"Great!" Xu Hao was overjoyed, then his gaze fell on the first draw number.

He hesitated for a moment, then decided to refrain from provoking the weasel for the time being.

Although the divination slips did not indicate an inauspicious position, the fact that good or bad fortune was difficult to predict already spoke volumes.

Xu Hao has no need to provoke the weasel and get himself into trouble.

Moreover, he currently lacks a Nascent Soul level magic weapon, and if the weasel and other powerful demons manage to escape, it would be a major problem.

Most importantly, the weasel was constantly tempting him; in other words, the treasure was always there, and Xu Hao could obtain it whenever he wanted.

Perhaps we should wait a little longer and pressure the weasel a bit more. What if the weasel can't take it anymore and comes up with something even better?

Therefore, what Xu Hao needs to do now is to grow himself in the most stable way.

He'll first acquire the magical artifact, which is a sure-fire way to make money. Once he's improved himself using it, he can turn back and make the entire sealed space his own.

After reading through all the lottery information, Xu Hao headed straight for the main hall of the palace.

When it comes to treasures, one should naturally want the best.

Only by getting the best can you be qualified to get the others.

This is also to prevent any unexpected events from happening that could lead to something going wrong with the treasures later on; in that case, he would at least get the best treasure.

Xu Hao took a step forward.

No one stopped them as they walked.

Outside the main hall of the palace, several imperial guards bowed and saluted upon seeing Xu Hao's arrival.

"Your Excellency the Duke!"

"Okay, you all stay outside and don't let anyone in!" Xu Hao casually gave the order, then pushed open the door of the palace hall.

Xu Hao then stepped inside and closed the door behind him.

This is where the imperial court held meetings.

However, because Xuan Qingxiao is currently in seclusion, she has not convened a meeting of court officials.

Now, Xu Hao can naturally take it.

Even if others harbored some resentment, they dared not express it.

Xu Hao entered the main hall and first observed the surroundings. After confirming that there was nothing unusual, he went to the center of the hall and directly inscribed the Domain-Breaking Seal on the ground.

Blood, energy.

finger.

Xu Hao was very quick to depict.

Even with his eyes closed, Xu Hao was able to depict the subject smoothly and perfectly. In no time, Xu Hao had finished.

hum.

A ripple emerged from the Broken Domain Seal, forming a black dot.

Xu Hao was prepared. He reached out, covered his palm with his true energy, and then grabbed inside.

Click.

In the sealed world, a stone statue shattered, releasing endless sword energy that caused the entire sealed space to display a series of mottled sword-like energies.

The next second, Xu Hao grabbed a flying sword from inside the stone statue.

As the space healed, the mottled sword light disappeared.

This caught the attention of a large demon resembling a sleeping toad nearby.

But soon it fell into a deep sleep again, because the sealed space had no energy, and it had to keep its own energy consumption to a minimum.

Even if something terrible happens, it won't budge.

It will survive until the world outside recovers.

Meanwhile, Xu Hao landed inside the main hall, a simple, unadorned longsword now in his hand.

The longsword was protected by a scabbard, but Xu Hao could still feel its sharpness when he held it in his hand.

Once unsheathed, it will surely unleash a devastating blow.

Xu Hao did not pull it out, but instead cautiously opened the Fortune Telling panel to check the specific information.

The Azure Dragon Sword, forged from a section of an azure dragon's spine and various rare metals, is engraved with the unique array patterns of Mount Shu. While its quality has somewhat declined due to its age, it still possesses formidable offensive power, including soul-slaying abilities, and is particularly effective against demons and monsters! It is a Nascent Soul level sword.

Xu Hao couldn't contain his joy as he looked at the information presented.

This is actually a treasured sword from Mount Shu.

Moreover, its effect is so strong that, in addition to its inherent sharpness, it can even sever souls.

It should be understood that the higher one's cultivation level, the more powerful the demons and monsters become; some of them are even things that cannot be destroyed at the physical level.

But this longsword before me can actually sever souls.

It is especially effective against demons and monsters.

Xu Hao already possesses certain traits that counteract demons and monsters, and now, with the addition of this longsword, his combat power will surge.

Ding.

Xu Hao drew the Azure Dragon Sword and immediately saw what appeared to be an azure dragon about to leap out from it.

"Okay!" Xu Hao quickly withdrew.

However, a trace of the Azure Dragon Sword's aura had already leaked out, causing a faint phantom of a dragon to appear in the sky above the palace.

The imperial guards outside the main hall were almost crushed by the overwhelming aura of this scene.

"Duke Xu is truly remarkable; he actually managed to create something like this. He's getting stronger and stronger!"

"Yes, the Great Xuan Dynasty can now last for tens of thousands of years!"

Xu Hao naturally heard the noise from the Imperial Guards outside, but he ignored it and began cleaning up the traces of the Broken Domain Seal inside the main hall at his own pace.

Once everything was in place, Xu Hao strode forward and opened the doors to the main hall of the palace.

"Your Excellency, Duke!" The other imperial guards and soldiers quickly bowed respectfully.

"Hmm!" Xu Hao responded indifferently, then strode off to the other courtyards.

First is the No. 17 villa.

After entering the main room of the villa, Xu Hao immediately began to inscribe the Domain-Breaking Seal.

A moment later, Xu Hao opened the space and reached his hand inside.

Soon, he had a long sword in his hand.

Xu Hao frowned slightly as he looked at the somewhat dull longsword in his hand.

Because this is a half-finished longsword.

Although it has been sharpened, it is dull and gray, without any engraving of array patterns.

[The Demon-Slaying Blade, a standard longsword forged in the Shu Mountains, is not yet fully inscribed with array patterns; it is at the Nascent Soul stage!]

"This thing seems to be even better than the Azure Dragon Sword!"

Xu Hao glanced at it from top to bottom and couldn't help but sigh.

The Azure Dragon Sword in his hand still had the array patterns of Mount Shu, but even so, it was only at the Nascent Soul stage.

However, the unfinished demon-slaying sword, which has not yet been inscribed with array patterns, already possesses the level of a Nascent Soul cultivator.

This shows that the material of the Demon-Slaying Blade is very powerful, at least much better than the spine of that Azure Dragon.

"Unfortunately, the corresponding array patterns were not inscribed, and I have quite a few array pattern refiners!"

Xu Hao thought about it and realized it made sense.

In a sealed space, anything with even a little bit of energy would be absorbed.

The reason why the Demon-Slaying Blade was able to be preserved intact is largely due to this. In addition, the demons probably did not come to collect these 'useless' semi-finished products, so they were completely taken advantage of by Xu Hao.

Xu Hao swung the demon-slaying sword and found it quite easy to use.

Even without the enhancement of other array patterns, its blade is extremely sharp, and combined with its material, few people could withstand being chopped with it.

In addition, Xu Hao's physical body is already extremely powerful, and obtaining this demon-slaying sword will greatly enhance his strength.

Moreover, due to the suppression of heaven and earth, Xu Hao could not exert an energy pressure exceeding the level of the Dao Entry level when holding other magical artifacts, but when he held the Demon Slayer Blade, the power it unleashed might simply exceed the level of the Dao Entry level.

The suppression of heaven and earth also suppresses energy, but the Demon-Slaying Blade and the like are made of materials and are extremely sturdy, so they are not subject to suppression at all.

"In this way, something without energy is more suitable for me!" Xu Hao put away the demon-slaying sword.

After cleaning up the traces around him, he rushed to the next courtyard without stopping.

He couldn't help but look forward to the thirty-seventh defensive artifact.

If the material itself also reaches the Nascent Soul level, then it will be one of the best magical artifacts he has obtained so far.

Xu Hao arrived at the No. 37 courtyard and continued to inscribe the Domain Breaking Seal as usual.

Soon, the black hole appeared, and Xu Hao reached out and grabbed it.

The next second, Xu Hao had a dusty object in his hand.

It was an inner armor, covered in dust, as if it hadn't been touched for years.

Time has left its mark, even causing the surface patterns to lose their color.

"I knew it?" Xu Hao smiled.

Just like the demon-slaying sword before, good magical artifacts will have array patterns engraved on them, which not only connect with heaven and earth, but also with themselves.

In particular, defensive magical artifacts require specific array patterns to gather energy in order to provide protection.

After all, if a defensive artifact cannot maintain a constant supply of energy, it will be completely ineffective in protecting against enemies.

However, even without the support of array patterns and energy, it is still at the Nascent Soul level, which means that it is a Nascent Soul level material in itself.

"Let's take a look at the specifics first!" Xu Hao immediately opened the Fortune Telling panel.

[The Golden Silkworm Armor, woven from special golden silkworm silk, forms a powerful protective shield. However, due to the energy being absorbed, its array patterns have shattered, losing their original power. Nevertheless, the material itself possesses strong protective capabilities, so it can still provide some protection. Nascent Soul level!]

"Great!" Xu Hao was overjoyed.

Just as he had predicted.

The inner armor itself is at the Nascent Soul level. If he learns array patterns and can inscribe them in the future, then this item will reach its original level.

But it's fine now, it just meets his needs.

After cleaning up the traces, Xu Hao headed straight for the No. 136 villa.

There, there is a Nascent Soul level array plate...
