Chapter 8 Followers, Trading Treasures
"This old demon's magic weapon is quite impressive."
After slaying the Demon King Lieyun, Xia Mangqing began to loot the corpse.
The Demon King Lieyun had many pills, talismans, and magical treasures on him, but the most precious of them all were his pair of winged magical treasures.
Its true form is actually a top-grade immortal-level magic weapon, and it possesses 3,600 feathers, each of which is comparable to a heaven-level magic weapon.
After refining it, Xia Mangqing tried it out. It could double his flight speed and the divine feathers were extremely sharp, so they could also be used for close combat. In addition, he could use countless divine feathers as flying swords to perform sword formations and other techniques.
However, neither he nor the Demon King Lieyun could unleash the full power of this magic weapon. Using all 3,600 divine feathers, which were comparable to a Heaven-rank magic weapon, would require an extremely high level of spiritual power, something he couldn't do at the moment.
"With this magic weapon, there should be very few people below the Celestial Immortal level who can surpass my speed. Next time, there's no need for such trouble. Just set up some restrictive formations to prevent spatial teleportation."
With a thought, Xia Mangqing's divine wings merged into his body.
Then his second primordial spirit retrieved the magic treasure, the Ink Landscape Painting. This magic treasure was also a celestial-grade magic treasure, a replica of the pure yang magic treasure, the Bright Moon Landscape Painting, which was in the hands of Emperor Xia.
This was one of the rewards given to him by Emperor Xia after he became his disciple. Without this magic weapon, he would not have been confident in trapping the Demon King Lieyun.
Swah——
As Xia Mangqing's second primordial spirit entered his personal immortal abode, he also released the siblings Yu Chifeng and Yu Chihong.
"Greetings, Your Highness Qing!"
After they came out, they immediately bowed and paid their respects.
Previously, they had already seen Xia Mangqing's second primordial spirit in the immortal mansion and learned of his identity. At this moment, they naturally felt awe and admiration.
Xia Mangqing can be said to be a legendary figure of this era, the number one genius of the Great Xia Dynasty.
Several years ago, they won the championship of the Immortal Destiny Tournament, but what they did not expect was that in just a few years, their opponent was already able to defeat a rogue immortal, which was truly terrifying.
"No need for formalities."
Xia Mangqing calmly said, "There was a reason for this. I apologize for putting you two fellow Daoists in such a dangerous situation."
"Your Highness is too kind!" Yu Chifeng said in a flustered manner, "It is my brother and I's honor to be able to help Your Highness."
"That's right. My brother and I have always admired Your Highness, and we are already overjoyed to be able to travel with you for a while."
Yu Chi Hong echoed, staring intently at Xia Mangqing.
It's clear that she genuinely admires Xia Mangqing.
Xia Mangqing smiled, a thought flashing through his mind, and said, "You two have good character and are destined to be with me. Would you be willing to follow me?"
He also has followers who help him with trivial matters, but those people are all arranged by the tribe and have never been chosen by him.
Yuchi Feng and Yuchi Hong have good character. Although their talents are average, for them, loyalty is the first thing to consider when choosing followers. For someone like Qu Hai Zhenren, no matter how high their talent is, he doesn't care.
Upon hearing this, both Yuchi Feng and Yuchi Hong were overjoyed and immediately knelt down, saying, "Yuchi Feng/Yuchi Hong are willing to follow Your Highness to the death!"
They all knew that this was a great opportunity and a great fortune.
Being able to follow the Xia Emperor's disciple is an opportunity that countless geniuses and prodigies throughout the Great Xia Dynasty would not even dream of. No matter how strong the sects and major factions in Dongyu County are, can they compare with the Great Xia royal family?
If they don't seize this opportunity, they will regret it to death.
"Well, no need for formalities," Xia Mangqing said. "I don't have many rules. I'll give you some time to say goodbye to your relatives and friends, and you'll leave with me in six months."
"Yes."
Yu Chifeng and Yu Chihong agreed and then made a vow to Heaven. Although Xia Mangqing didn't say it, they had no choice but to do it.
"Let's go, let's leave the Heavenly Demon Mountain Range."
Xia Mangqing said that the Yuchi siblings did not hesitate.
Compared to becoming a follower of Xia Mangqing, what is joining Yinglong Guard?
"Your Highness."
A few days later, when Xia Mangqing returned, several three-clawed Yinglong Guards from the Heavenly Demon Division of the Yinglong Guard came to greet him.
"The Demon King Lieyun is dead."
Xia Mangqing threw out the corpse of the Demon King Lieyun. After one of the Yinglong Guards confirmed it, he said to Xia Mangqing, "Congratulations on your first victory, Your Highness. We will report this to His Highness the King of You as soon as possible."
"Okay." Xia Mangqing nodded: "Prepare a place for me to stay in the county town. I will stay for a while longer."
"Yes."
A wandering immortal accepted.
After saying that, Xia Mangqing led Yuchi Feng and Yuchi Hong to Dongyu County City via the teleportation array.
"As expected of His Majesty's disciple, even the Demon King Lieyun fell into his hands. His future is unimaginable!"
"I've long heard that he has the talent of a celestial being, and it's no exaggeration to say that he can kill a rogue immortal demon king at such a young age. It's truly amazing."
"Yes, perhaps another king will emerge in the future."
After Xia Mangqing left, several Earth Immortals and Loose Immortals from the Heavenly Demon Branch sighed. They admired Xia Mangqing not only because of his status, but also because of his strength.
Even now, there are probably few people in Dongyu County below the Celestial Immortal level who can match him. Moreover, Xia Mangqing is too young, not even fifty years old yet. In a hundred or a thousand years, his strength will be even more unimaginable.
On the other side, Xia Mangqing, along with Yuchi Feng and Yuchi Hong, had arrived at Dongyu City, a magnificent city spanning nearly ten thousand miles, home to countless reclusive powerhouses.
Yinglongwei arranged a mansion for Xia Mangqing to stay temporarily.
Yu Chi Feng and Yu Chi Hong returned to the Yu Chi clan's territory and reported to the clan elders about following Xia Mangqing.
This was a joyous occasion and was not hindered. A month later, the two returned to Dongyu County.
"Go and cultivate yourselves on your own; I will inform you when the time comes."
"Yes."
Yu Chifeng and Yu Chihong agreed. What they saw this time was Xia Mangqing's second primordial spirit, while his original body had already gone to the Void God Realm.
……
"Young friend, my clan is willing to exchange the Thunder Roc Technique with you. Is that acceptable?"
In the Realm of the Void Gods, not long after Xia Mangqing appeared, an elder from a powerful clan came to him, agreeing to the conditions Xia Mangqing had proposed the day before, and offering to trade a precious technique for it.
"sure."
Xia Mangqing grinned. In his view, it was something that happened a long time ago, but for the beings of this realm, it was just yesterday. In addition, he had already successfully made a transaction once before, and it was within his expectations that beings from other lineages would agree.
The old man smiled, but added:
"But we have one more request: young friend, please do not use that precious technique to trade with other sects."
A powerful magical technique can support a lineage, and its uniqueness makes it precious. If it could be learned anywhere, how could it be valuable?
Just like the "Crimson Bright Nine Heavens Diagram," which was originally one of the top divine and demonic body-refining methods in the Three Realms below the gods, it spread so widely that even some small tribes possessed it.
Although it is mysterious and extraordinary, it has little value.
Each major lineage in the desolate region possesses supreme treasure techniques, but even the most elite lineages possess only a few supreme treasure techniques at most, and they never pass them on to outsiders; only their direct descendants can learn them.
Therefore, even when trading precious techniques with other forces, they will only keep it within a very small scope to ensure the rarity of their own techniques and thus gain an advantage.
"No problem, I have other precious techniques and supernatural abilities here, you can take a look too." Xia Mangqing didn't care about this. He knew some of the problems in this world, so he was very clear that the number of times the same precious technique or supernatural ability could be traded was limited.
So from the very beginning, he never intended to exploit any magical techniques or abilities.
