Chapter 103

Dragon Rune Saber

"The Qing Xuan Empire is vast and is divided into nine counties. The Imperial Capital County, which is located in the center of the empire, is the leader. The number one expert of the empire, the Qing Emperor, resides in the Imperial Capital County and wields imperial power. He is a supreme existence!

The other eight counties will respect the Imperial Capital County and will follow the Imperial Capital County's lead! "

"In the entire Qing Xuan Empire, there are a total of nine Origin Qi Towers, which are located in the capitals of the nine counties!"

"Rattan Armor City is located in Muqin County in the southeast. As for Rattan Armor City, it can only be considered a low-level city. In Muqin County, there are tens of thousands of low-level cities like Rattan Armor City. Above that are mid-level cities, high-level cities, and powerful super cities!"

"It can be said that the Origin Qi Tower Battle is a battle between countless geniuses in Muqin County. The final victor will be a genius among geniuses and will receive countless benefits!"

At this point, Gu Yue Tian's expression became somewhat excited. It was obvious that even he was unable to remain calm about the Origin Qi Tower Battle!

After hearing Gu Yue Tian's introduction, Zhuowen's heart also surged with excitement, "Governor, could it be that the final victor of the Origin Qi Tower Battle will be conferred the title of Marquis?"

"Haha!

Being conferred the title of Marquis is not that easy. The Origin Qi Tower Battle is only a competition between geniuses in the county. After the Origin Qi Tower Battle ends, each county will select the top hundred geniuses to participate in the War of the Nine Counties! "

"The War of the Nine Counties is the key to being conferred the title of Marquis. Only the geniuses who reach the end of the War of the Nine Counties will be conferred the title of Marquis by the Qing Emperor himself!

However, the War of the Nine Counties is a bit far away from us. Our Rattan Armor City is only a low-level city. Among the tens of thousands of geniuses in Muqin County, it will be very difficult for us to enter the top hundred!

However, if any of you can enter the top thousand, then the Marquis will reward you and our Rattan Armor City will be promoted to an intermediate city! "

Gu Yue Tian slowly regained his composure and explained to Zhuowen with a gentle expression.

On the other hand, Zhuowen was lost in thought. It seemed that becoming a Marquis wasn't something that could be easily achieved. He didn't expect that there would be a Battle of the Nine Countries in addition to the Battle of the Vitality Tower. Zhuowen knew that the Battle of the Nine Countries was the true competition between geniuses. After all, the contestants participating in the Battle of the Nine Countries were the cream of the crop.

"However, the Essence Qi Tower is fraught with dangers. Many young warriors will fall in every Essence Qi Tower Battle, so this opportunity comes with risks. I can represent the City Lord's Mansion to give you a spot. Do you agree?"

At this point, Gu Yue Tian looked cautiously at the young man in front of him, who was deep in thought. There was a trace of anticipation in his eyes. He did not know why, but he felt that the young man in front of him would give him a different feeling.

"However, you don't have to rush to agree. The quota in my hands right now isn't an official quota, but a substitute quota. Whether or not you can participate in the Vitality Tower battle will ultimately depend on you!"

"Not an official quota?" Zhuowen was curious and asked doubtfully.

"Although our Rattan Armor City is only a low-level city, its territory is not small. There are many cities and towns gathered around. In addition to these cities and towns, some warriors have also established many gangs!

These are not small forces, and they are all under the jurisdiction of Rattan Armor City. "

"Rattan Armor City only has four quotas, but there are many people and not enough porridge. Therefore, if our main city wants to obtain an official quota, we must compete with the surrounding forces!"

Gu Yue Tian suddenly fell silent at this point. He only looked at Zhuowen and waited for his answer.

Zhuowen thought for a moment and simply agreed. After all, the Battle of the Vitality Tower was a rare opportunity, and he didn't want to give it up.

"Good!

Zhuowen, you really didn't disappoint me. The competition for the quota will be set in half a year. At that time, all the surrounding forces of Rattan Armor City will participate in this grand occasion!

Although you have the help of the Nirvana Demon Flame, your cultivation is too weak. You should train more in this half a year. I look forward to your performance in half a year. "

Gu Yue Tian's face immediately revealed a hearty smile. He heavily patted Zhuowen's shoulder and continued, "Since you are representing the City Lord's Mansion, as the City Lord, I naturally have to show my appreciation."

As he spoke, Gu Yue Tian waved his right hand and three balls of light suddenly appeared in front of him.

"There are three low-level soul treasures in these three balls of light. I will allow you to choose one of them!"

When Gu Yue Tian took out the three balls of light, the blue-clothed old man and Gu Yue were shocked. They didn't expect that Gu Yue Tian would actually take out a low-level soul treasure. Although they knew that Gu Yue Tian's actions were to rope in Zhuowen, the cost of doing so was quite heavy.

Zhuowen was shocked. He calmly looked at Gu Yue Tian and confirmed that he wasn't joking. Only then did he respectfully cup his hands together and seriously look at the balls of light in front of him.

He clearly knew that Gu Yue Tian's actions were clearly to rope him in. However, the fact that he was able to take out a soul treasure, even though it was a low-level soul treasure, showed Gu Yue Tian's sincerity.

After all, low-level soul treasures were extremely rare in Rattan Armor City. If their Zhuo Family didn't have the Gravity Tower passed down from their ancestors, their large Zhuo Family wouldn't even be able to take out a single soul treasure. This already showed how rare soul treasures were.

Forcefully suppressing the excitement in his heart, Zhuowen focused his gaze on the three balls of light.

The first thing that caught his eye was the leftmost cluster of light. Inside the cluster of light was a small longsword. The surface of the longsword was cold, and the blade was covered with strange runes. A trace of strange fluctuation was transmitted from it.

Looking at the ball of light in the middle, there was actually a golden ring. The ring's surface was in the shape of a snake. It was as if a snake was biting its tail to form a ring. The aura it emitted was almost the same as the longsword.

Finally, Zhuowen's gaze landed on the rightmost ball of light. However, when Zhuowen's gaze focused on this ball of light, he couldn't help but be startled. This was because the ball of light was actually a broken broadsword. Around the body of the broadsword, there was a pattern of a dragon. It looked very majestic.

However, there was a gap in the handle of the broadsword. It was as if a large part of the handle was broken off. It was very obvious that this broadsword was a type of broadsword with a long handle. However, for some reason, a large part of the handle was missing. Now, there was only a short handle that could barely be grasped.

This Saber Numinous Treasure was clearly a broken Numinous Treasure. Furthermore, compared to the other two balls of light, this Saber Numinous Treasure's aura was clearly much weaker. Clearly, due to the fact that a part of it was missing, this Numinous Treasure's power had decreased significantly.

After taking another look at this broadsword, Zhuowen shook his head. He could feel that the aura of this broadsword was too weak. Its power was definitely much weaker than the other two soul treasures. Therefore, Zhuowen immediately gave up on this broadsword!

However, just as Zhuowen was about to choose from the other two soul treasures, Xiao Hei's voice suddenly rang out in his mind.

"Kid, choose that broadsword. Trust me, that thing is very beneficial to you!"

After Xiao Hei finished speaking, there was no more sound. It was obvious that he was afraid that Gu Yue Tian would notice something.

After receiving Xiao Hei's reminder, Zhuowen also looked at the broken broadsword on the rightmost side for the first time. He knew that since Xiao Hei had asked him to choose this broadsword, he naturally had his reasons.

"Zhuowen, have you thought about which one to choose?" Gu Yue Tian smiled warmly and asked.

After pondering for a while, Zhuowen finally chose to believe Xiao Hei. He reached out his right hand and grabbed the broken broadsword in the rightmost ball of light. He calmly said, "I choose this broadsword soul treasure."

The moment Zhuowen grabbed the handle of the broadsword, he instantly felt the Dragon Energy of the Five-Clawed Golden Dragon that filled his body suddenly boil. A sense of excitement that he had never felt before spread from his spine to his entire body.

"This broadsword …"

With this thought in mind, Zhuowen pulled out the broadsword from the ball of light with his right hand. At the same time, a powerful aura inexplicably whistled out from the broadsword.

Awoo!

The moment the broadsword was pulled out, the powerful aura actually caused a huge airflow. This airflow actually automatically turned into a huge dragon head behind Zhuowen. A sharp cry that seemed to come from ancient times was emitted from the broadsword. The dragon head quietly stared at Zhuowen, then immediately dispersed into an invisible airflow and returned to the broadsword.

"It has the aura of a dragon!" Zhuowen's eyes suddenly lit up as he softly said the words that he had not finished speaking.

Gu Yue Tian also did not expect that when the broken broadsword soul treasure was pulled out, there would be such a huge movement. After a thoughtful look flashed across his eyes, he smiled and said, "I obtained this broadsword soul treasure by chance in a historical relic. Because there are dragon patterns on the blade, I named it the Dragon Vein Broadsword."

"According to my estimation, when this broadsword was intact, it was at least a middle-level soul treasure. Unfortunately, it is severely damaged. Now it can barely reach the level of a low-level soul treasure. In terms of power, it is even worse than ordinary low-level soul treasures!

Zhuowen, have you thought about it? Are you really going to choose this Dragon Vein Broadsword? "

Zhuowen smiled and said calmly, "I choose this broadsword. I have made up my mind!"

"Since it is your choice, then you should first drip your blood to recognize it as your master!

Soul treasures are different from ordinary weapons in that you need to drip your blood to recognize it as your master. After that, even if others get it, they can't use it! "

Gu Yue Tian could feel the determination in Zhuowen's eyes, so he did not try to persuade him.

Zhuowen nodded and directly dripped his blood essence into the broadsword. After the blood essence entered the broadsword, Zhuowen felt a blood connection with the broadsword.

When he held the broadsword just now, Zhuowen could feel that this broadsword was not ordinary. Although it was severely damaged, he believed that Xiao Hei must have her own reasons for letting him choose this broadsword.

After choosing his soul treasure, Zhuowen exchanged a few more words with Gu Yue Tian, then took the initiative to leave!

Looking at Zhuowen's departing figure, Gu Yue Tian suddenly said to Gu Yue, "Yue Er, what do you think of Zhuowen?"

Gu Yue was stunned, then the corners of her mouth curled into a faint smile, "This guy is actually not bad!

No matter if it is talent or strength, he has far surpassed his peers! "

"Zhuowen is indeed not bad. Although he is young, his temperament is not bad. Even when facing me, the City Lord, he is neither servile nor overbearing!

Father saw you staring at him just now. Have you taken a fancy to him? "

Gu Yue Tian looked at his daughter beside him, the corners of his mouth curling into a mischievous smile.
