#2048 - The Broken Knife
Qu Jianlei really didn't expect that there would be such a saying.
He tried to explain, "I brought my comrades here, and I felt that a hasty sacrifice would be disrespectful, and you seniors deserve it."
"There's no need to go through all these formalities," it's very rare that the hypocrite would say such a thing.
"The best reward for us is to work hard to improve ourselves, eliminate all evil spirits, and make the human race stronger and more glorious!"
"Put aside these insignificant behaviors. Having the ritual in your heart is enough."
Not only Qu Jianlei sensed his thoughts, but others also heard them and came forward one by one to pay their respects.
After the ceremony, Qu Jianlei held up the broken axe and said, "I respectfully invite all the seniors to come forward and identify a treasure."
This time he wants to ask the big guys to help identify what kind of small tripod it is.
This item is the only magic weapon that cannot be stored in the cave, so its origin must be good.
It was precisely because the small tripod was inconvenient to carry that he left the treasure in Hongye Ridge and had to come back specially.
He placed the broken axe in front of the small tripod, but the broken axe did not respond for a long time.
A group of people were waiting to watch the show. Even Bentley and other Jindan who had not entered the cave were secretly sensing with their spiritual sense.
To their disappointment, a long time passed and Canfu did not show any consciousness.
Finally, the hypocritical obsession flashed, "Good stuff, put the ritual vessel away."
When the broken axe entered the cave again, the obsession emerged again, "This thing is not ordinary, it is inconvenient to comment on it."
Qu Jianlei knew that Xiao Ding was definitely not bad, but this “not convenient to comment”…what the hell was that?
He thought for a moment and asked, "So, can the stone repair it?"
"It's not a big deal," the fake scholar answered casually, "You're just not strong enough. In the future, you can use it like a human treasure... You can try it out."
"Huh?" Qu Jianlei was a little speechless. He was still thinking that now that he had a group of portable grandfathers, wouldn't that save him a lot of trouble?
Now he actually got such a response, which made him feel a little...
Suddenly, he thought of something, "Did the screening just now cause any inconvenience to the senior?"
"That's all right," the hypocrite replied calmly, "but we want to do our best to preserve the remaining ritual vessels."
"I think I understand!" Qu Jianlei nodded.
Although the ritual vessels are broken, they still maintain the corresponding rules and beliefs, and will affect destiny.
Generally speaking, isn't this also a kind of Tao?
However, although the broken axe is of high level, it is ultimately just a ceremonial weapon of a big world.
The magic weapons from other worlds may not all conform to its principles, and it cannot force the magic weapons from other worlds to accept them.
In this case, even if the magic weapon from another world is not considered "indecent", it is very likely to be "incompatible with etiquette".
This should be a bond unique to ritual vessels, and it is unlikely to be the case with other magic weapons.
As for the broken axe suppressing the broken sword, it was probably because the broken sword provoked first, which aroused the strong dissatisfaction of the ritual vessel.
Thinking of this, Qu Jianlei asked again, "Will those related cultivation knowledge... also affect the seniors?"
"That's fine," the hypocrite answered straightforwardly, "We are currently discussing and sorting out the details, and will provide some information soon."
When Qu Jianlei heard "it's okay" again, he thought about it and released some of the tiger man's flesh and blood.
"Thank you for your hard work, seniors. Please give me some rest."
As expected, after he released his flesh and blood, the hypocritical scholar did not stop him, obviously condoning this behavior.
Just as Qu Jianlei was about to leave the cave, the fake Taoist said, "Let's remove the altar."
I'm not really complaining, I just feel that these heroes are really wronged.
Since he couldn't identify the small tripod, Qu Jianlei wouldn't identify other things.
There are still several unknown treasures in the team, but... let's leave it at that for now.
With no other options, Qu Jianlei released the broken knife and took out the stone, "?"
At present, there is no better use for the stone. If he follows the advice of the hypocrite and collects it, he will feel that it is idle.
The demonic invasion is imminent, and although he is not very worried about the survival of the team, wouldn’t it be better if the combat power could be enhanced?
The team's bond with the fate of the Cangwu Realm is deepening little by little.
Even without talking about his way of asking, or the joy in Tianyin's realm, the team cannot be too detached when facing the invasion of alien races.
In case the Cangwu Realm is destroyed and without the recognition and support of the cultivators in this realm, it will be much more difficult for them to enter the upper realm.
Now that he has the blessing of the heroic spirit's obsession, he is about to acquire a large amount of knowledge, and he does not necessarily have to go to the upper realm to achieve the out-of-body experience.
However, no one is sure whether one can succeed in reaching the next level in other realms, and the risk is quite high.
So he decided to give Duan Dao one last chance - do you want this thing?
Duan Dao did not react at all, and he could not feel any trace of the violent emotions that had appeared before.
Qu Jianlei took out a cigarette and lit it up. He put out the cigarette butt and reached out to grab the stone. "Forget it then."
However, almost at the same time, Duan Dao suddenly burst out with violent emotions, causing his sea of consciousness to tremble slightly.
Qu Jianlei's expression changed slightly, and subconsciously, he wanted to turn hostile: We have no grudges against each other, so this is over!
Although he couldn't do anything to the broken sword, he could still throw it into the void and let it fend for itself.
However, thinking of the obsessions left by those heroic spirits, he felt that it would be better for him not to be too willful.
So he sighed, "Then let's part ways amicably. I brought you to the Cangwu Realm... and we are basically even now."
The two sides had fought together before, but generally speaking, each had its own needs, and it was not just one side that just demanded.
To put it more bluntly, he couldn't control Broken Blade with his will alone - the other party simply ignored him.
However, there is no need to calculate the right and wrong of these things in such detail.
The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!
No matter what, he brought the other party back to the world of immortal cultivation, which was enough to settle the cause and effect.
Duan Dao's emotions were a little unstable. His previous attack was very powerful, but in the next moment, he suppressed most of his emotions.
It was retracted and released several times, but no one knew what it meant.
Qu Jianlei suppressed his headache, put away the stone, looked at it and spoke calmly.
"Let's say goodbye now. Do you want to leave by yourself, or should I take you away?"
He was really tired. Broken Blade was indeed good at dealing with demons, but unfortunately it was too uncontrollable.
The key point is that the other party has offended the ritual vessel. No one knows what will happen in the future. It is better to end it all once and for all and eliminate the hidden dangers.
The aura of Broken Blade began to retract and release again, the amplitude was slightly lighter, but the frequency seemed to increase.
Qu Jianlei waited for another cigarette and spoke slowly, "Since you don't make a choice, I will send you to the formation."
Just as he stretched out his hand to grab the broken knife, the aura of the broken knife suddenly retracted, converging to almost nothing.
Qu Jianlei has basically become immune to its various abnormal movements, and his sea of consciousness is still a little dizzy at this moment.
He wanted to pick up the broken knife in mid-air, but the knife began to struggle again, quite violently.
At the same time, for the first time ever, a hint of grievance was emanated from the broken sword.
"Feeling wronged?" Qu Jianlei was really surprised. How could such a divine weapon of killing have such emotions?
It should be the spirituality of the magic weapon! Qu Jianlei shook his head helplessly, "Sorry, I don't understand what you are talking about."
"The previous communication was not smooth enough, so we...will cooperate again if we are destined to do so."
This is his character. Everything can be discussed before a decision is made.
But once a decision is made, it is almost impossible to change it.
The next moment, Duan Dao put away all his emotions.
Just when Qu Jianlei thought that the other party had approved of his decision, the broken knife flew into the air.
A black shadow flashed, and the broken knife fell into his palm, smooth as silk, without any resistance.
As if possessed by a magic spell, Qu Jianlei subconsciously swung his knife twice. It felt as if he was moving his arm, without feeling any sluggishness at all.
"Tsk," Qu Jianlei frowned, "You betraying your allies at the last minute, does that fit the temperament of a divine soldier?"
But then, an image appeared in his mind: a broken knife was chopping at a thick tree!
Behind the trees, there were a dozen Asuras, some with eight arms and some with six arms, who were staring in amazement and trembling.
The appearances of the tree clan are similar and not easily recognizable, but Qu Jianlei still recognized it at a glance. The person in the image was the tree traitor Feng Wangxi!
Those dozen or so Asuras also looked familiar. One of them had eight arms and a wound on his face. It was none other than Giant Hammer, the rising star of the Giant Strength Department.
This is... Qu Jianlei was stunned and asked, "Are you saying that you let them go for my sake?"
This possibility exists objectively. The Broken Blade has an alarming murderous aura and was made by humans. It may not only be able to kill demons.
However, Duan Dao fell silent again, and no one knew what it meant.
Qu Jianlei thought for a moment and said, "If I'm right, shake twice. If I'm wrong, shake more!"
The broken knife trembled slightly, and after ten seconds or so, it trembled again.
Qu Jianlei waited for another cigarette's time, but in the end the third shake did not come.
It seems that although this guy is not very mentally sound, he is not completely uncommunicative.
It would be easy if we could communicate. Qu Jianlei asked again, "You are... eager to be free, right?"
The next moment, the broken knife began to tremble wildly, and it trembled for more than ten times before stopping.
Qu Jianlei even thought of the emoticon package of "three consecutive denials".
