In the Demon Suppression Division, the Iron-Cutting Sword Technique is perfected

After talking about the things in the Demon Suppression Division.

Gu Cheng changed the subject and led the topic to the willow tree demon, asking casually:

"Fangtou, I see that the tree demon's healing ability is quite strange, and there are few long-lived people in Liuchun County. It is so abnormal. Has the Demon Suppression Division investigated this matter before?"

Fang Xu was silent for a moment and nodded slightly:

"Of course I have investigated it. As you just saw, although the tree demon's healing ability is powerful, it must absorb the vitality of others every time it is used."

"Over time, most of the local people in Liuchun County do not live beyond the age of fifty."

Gu Cheng's sword-like eyebrows were slightly Frowning, with a puzzled look on his face:

"If that's the case, will the Demon Suppression Division just leave it alone and let it cause trouble?"

"Control? How?"

Fang Da Huzi smiled bitterly, took a sip of tea, and said helplessly:

"Nowadays, the demons are in chaos and the people are living in dire straits. Although the magic power of the Willow God will shorten the lifespan of the locals, it does provide shelter for the local people.

This is an equal exchange, a matter of mutual consent. The Demon Suppression Division can't kill it all, so it can only turn a blind eye."

"..."

Gu Cheng nodded silently, accepting this statement.

In the demon-warrior chaos, human life is worthless, and most people probably don't live to the age of natural aging.

It can be exchanged for a moment of peace at the cost of reducing lifespan.

For the common people in Liuchun County, it is also a very cost-effective deal.

"However, the tree demon has been acting a little abnormal recently..."

Su Yanan looked around and said to Gu Cheng in a low voice:

"Ten days ago, two captains of the Demon Suppression Division disappeared mysteriously while tracking down the remnants of the Blood Knife Sect.

Fang Tou and I were responsible for secretly investigating this matter. We followed the clues all the way and finally found this Liuchun County..."

"Well, we have reported this matter to the headquarters. I think in a few days, a general will lead a team to investigate this matter thoroughly."

Fang Xu took over the conversation: "Brother Gu, if you are interested, you can go together. If there is really a problem with the willow tree demon, you can also share a part of the credit."

After that, the bearded man blinked at Gu Cheng with an expression of "you know".

An old hand like him naturally knows how to seek benefits for his relatives and friends.

"Thank you for your reminder."

Gu Cheng bowed his hands to thank him, but his heart became more and more urgent.

The Demon Suppression Division is not just for show. Even if I don't intervene, the remnants of Willow God and Blood Knife Sect will probably not be able to survive for a few days.

If I want to avoid being robbed, I must hurry up and act as soon as possible.

-----------------

After saying goodbye to the two.

Gu Cheng left the tea stall and walked along the dark alley until he came to a secluded courtyard.

This courtyard looks ordinary and is no different from the surrounding houses, but the copper lock on the courtyard door has rusted, and it is obvious that no one has lived there for a long time.

I'm afraid no one would have thought that this is the secret base of an evil cultivator of the demon path.

Gu Cheng looked around cautiously, and after making sure that no one was paying attention, he reached out and pushed gently.

With a rotting groan of "creaking", the courtyard door slowly opened.

Gu Cheng flashed in, and the courtyard was dead silent, with only a few dead leaves swirling in the autumn wind.

According to the description of the residual soul of the Blood Lady, the mechanism of the secret room is hidden near the crooked old locust tree in the yard.

Gu Cheng walked under the tree and carefully observed the blue bricks around the roots of the tree. As expected, he found that the color of one of the bricks was slightly different.

He took a deep breath, calmed his mind, and reached out to press the brick.

There was a sound of the mechanism turning, and the originally flat ground slowly cracked, revealing a dark hole.

A damp musty smell mixed with dust came to his face.

Gu Cheng waved his hand, and when the dust dispersed, he walked down the steps with the faint light.

The secret room is not big, and the walls around are made of blue bricks, which look very solid.

Several oil lamps that had been extinguished long ago were quietly attached to the wall.

Gu Cheng snapped his fingers lightly, and the lightning flashed at his fingertips. The oil lamps lit up with a "puff" sound, illuminating the entire secret room.

The young man in black raised his eyes and the first thing that caught his eye was ten large boxes placed against the wall.

The boxes were not locked, so Gu Cheng opened one at random and saw that it was full of gold, silver and jewelry, which were obviously the treasures of the Blood Lady for many years.

Gu Cheng was not interested in these yellow and white things. He glanced at them and landed on a bookshelf in the corner of the secret room.

He walked to the bookshelf and picked up a book to read.

The pages were yellowed, the paper was rough, and the words on it were a little blurry.Obviously, they are quite old.

Gu Cheng flipped through a few books and found that they were all relatively simple martial arts secrets, and the highest level was only the Qi and Blood Realm.

If it was when he was just starting out, he might have regarded these secrets as treasures.

But with Gu Cheng's current cultivation and status, these low-level martial arts are no longer in his eyes.

"Why are there only these things?"

Gu Cheng frowned slightly, feeling a little disappointed.

Just as he was about to wake up the residual soul of the Blood Lady and ask about the matter clearly, he suddenly found that there seemed to be something wrong with a corner of the bookshelf.

He stretched out his hand and pressed it lightly, and heard a "click". A piece of wood on the bookshelf actually bounced open, revealing a hidden compartment.

Gu Cheng was delighted and quickly opened the secret compartment, and found three storage bags of different colors inside.

The Blood Lady herself was only at the Qi and Blood Realm, and she had no talent for refining the spirit, so she could not use storage magic tools at all.

These three storage bags were obviously taken from the Blood Blade Sect elder in the Xiantian realm.

Gu Cheng couldn't wait to pick up a storage bag and probed his mind into it.

He saw that it was filled with various bottles and jars, which contained elixirs for various purposes.

He took a quick look and found that there were actually two precious longevity pills in it, which made him brighten up.

This longevity pill is a good thing that is in short supply. Although it is useless to him, it is perfect for exchanging treasures with other major forces.

He put the pills away with satisfaction and picked up another storage bag, looking forward to more surprises.

This storage bag is filled with some monster materials, including more than ten monster cores that exude violent auras. At a glance, it is clear that they are monsters from the Broken Ordinary Realm.

In the deepest part of this storage bag, there are two exquisite jade boxes.

After Gu Cheng took it out and opened it, a surge of demonic evil spirit suddenly spread out like a whirlwind.

In the jade box, an egg-sized demon core flashed with a faint light. Such a powerful demon was obviously from a great demon in the innate realm!

"Tsk tsk, this elder of the Blood Knife Sect is really rich in background."

Gu Cheng was secretly shocked. Judging from this family background alone, the strength of the demon master is definitely one of the best in the innate realm.

He put away these demon cores and picked up the last storage bag.

There were very few things in this storage bag, only two jade pendants and a thick book.

Gu Cheng picked up one of the blood-red jade pendants, and it was cold in his hand. There was a hideous skull carved on the jade pendant, exuding a cold evil spirit.

Gu Cheng had a vague premonition in his heart and probed his mind into the jade pendant.

A huge amount of information suddenly flooded into his mind like a tide.

At the same time, a new prompt appeared on the panel:

[Innate Blood Sword Scripture: Not yet started]

"Done!"

Gu Cheng was overjoyed. This was exactly the ultimate goal of his trip - the complete version of the third volume of the Blood Sword Scripture!

He took a deep breath, suppressed his excitement, and picked up another dark red jade pendant.

The jade pendant was warm to the touch. A hideous evil ghost was roaring and squatting on it, as if it was going to choose someone to devour. The murderous aura was palpitating.

Gu Cheng calmed down and probed his mind into the ghost-faced jade pendant.

Boom——

The vast sea of ​​information rushed in, almost drowning him.

Gu Cheng took a quick look and found that the jade pendant also recorded a practice, and its content was many times more than the third volume of the Blood Sword Scripture!

You know, even the top practice of the Innate Realm, the Four Spirits True Meaning, seems to be just like this, right?

"Could it be..."

Gu Cheng had no time to sort out the chaotic information in his mind, and hurriedly looked at the system panel, wanting to confirm the level of this technique.

When he saw the record on the panel clearly, he couldn't help but hold his breath, and his pupils suddenly shrank to the size of a needle tip.
