Chapter 501: New Things

Li Huowang's expression was solemn as he gripped the spine sword in his hand. His gaze was focused on a green snake resting on a green bamboo in the distance.

He grabbed the sword tighter as he focused qi on his dantian. Then, Li Huowang slashed out toward the green bamboo.

An invisible sword qi rushed out of the blade, distorting everything it touched into various shapes and colors.

For example, the green bamboo leaves turned yellow and became riddled with insect holes, while the green snake transformed into a flower snake.

The rustling of bamboo leaves echoed incessantly as bamboo poles fell to the ground. As the sword qi gradually dissipated, the distorted scenes gradually returned to their original state.

Li Huowang began experimenting with his new weapon in the bamboo forest, transforming the entire region into a bizarre, distorted area.

After several days of training, Li Huowang gained significant mastery over the spine sword. He could now use "sword qi" to cut an object into three pieces.

In the face of an overwhelmingly powerful enemy, the sword qi could even become a rift in space that would transport them to Great Qi.

In essence, this sword qi was another layer of history, and it was not something that ordinary artifacts and supernatural powers could withstand.

Moreover, it was invisible, which made it difficult to evade. Most importantly, it could "penetrate" anything. Even someone standing in front of a barrier would find that barrier useless before it.

An hour later, Li Huowang was breathing in ragged pants, astonished by the spine sword in his hand.

He couldnt help but acknowledge that this artifact forged with a Twisted One's corpse was indeed powerful. It surpassed any other magical artifacts he had ever possessed.

Fortunately, he had engaged in close combat with that woman before. The battle would have been challenging if she had kept her distance and had used this spine sword against him from afar.

With this sword, my strength has increased by at least forty percent. Li Huowang thought as he picked up a piece of white cloth from the ground to wrap around the sword.

Dad, why are you wrapping it with a cloth? Li Sui asked curiously. She was squatted nearby and had been staring at Li Huowang from the sidelines.

I got this thing from the Surveillance Bureau, and it also has a striking appearance that will definitely attract attention If I dont cover it up. If the Surveillance Bureau finds out that I have this thing on me, there are going to be consequences.

What consequences?

You... sigh... They will hunt us down.

Li Huowang picked up some bamboo fragments from the ground and wrapped them around the sword, making it appear like a bulky and great sword from the outside.Reêad latest novels at novelhall.com

Unfortunately, the succession war seemed to have come to a screeching halt, which disappointed Li Huowang.

As long as the emperor didnt ascend the throne and those royal family members didnt die cleanly, he would not have a peaceful life.

This situation made Li Huowang a bit annoyed. Under such fearful circumstances, it wasnt easy for him to find somewhere quiet to cultivate.

Stop pushing the horse. Let it rest. It doesnt matter whether it runs faster or slower. Li Huowang said to Li Sui, who was driving the carriage.

Then, he turned to Bai Lingmiao, who was holding a book, and asked, Can you still see whats written in the book?

Although Bai Lingmiaos eyes still looked a bit pinkish, they were mostly white. At first impression, she actually appeared to be blind.

Senior Li, I can see, Bai Lingmiao said. She stretched her slender fingers to touch the characters on the page. Although I cant see with my eyes anymore, I can read by feeling the differences in the parts stained by ink.

What are you reading? Li Huowang asked again.

Some spirit possession techniques. I can no longer perform as a Shaman, so I've become useless. I want to learn something to protect myself, as I don't want to be a burden.

Everything from the White Lotus Sect is no good. Dont worry; everything is under my control. I can protect you.

Strands of white hair swayed gently on Bai Lingmiao's face as she shook her head. Senior Li, I cant always rely on you. There will definitely be times that youre away. You're right; everything from the White Lotus Sect is bad, but its better than nothing.

Li Huowang was stunned. Moments later, he realized that Bai Lingmiao's personality had changed slightly, and she seemed to have become more courageous than before.

Hold on, don't even attempt to learn that. I suddenly remembered that I have something particularly suitable for you, Li Huowang said, pulling back the curtain and rummaging through Li Suis abdomen.

Soon, Li Huowang found the book of talismans he had originally given to Li Sui.

Dad, that's mine, Li Sui said with a hint of grievance.

I know its yours. Whats wrong with letting your mother borrow it to learn?

Li Huowang placed the book in Bai Lingmiaos hands and said, Take your time learning what's inside of this book. These talismans are useful both in offense and defense. They also can be used for divination.

Also, you're different from us. You can use these things without any worries. Your eyes are technically blind, so the side-effects of these talismans are ineffective against you.
