Combat weapons, elixirs, and martial arts are the three main ways for martial artists to improve their strength.
However, in addition to these three factors, the strength of martial artists is also affected by other factors, such as the level of compatibility with the divine text and so on.
In the second treasure room, there were only combat weapons, elixirs and martial arts, and Shu Chan was unable to open the stone door leading to the next treasure room.
Long Yu secretly activated the Shura Source Stone and opened it easily, which made Shu Chan marvel.
"Long Yu, it seems that your attainments in Shura Divine Script are even deeper than mine. That's amazing."
Shu Chan said with a chuckle.
"It was just an opportunity I got in Shura Abyss by coincidence."
Long Yu smiled casually, then took the lead and walked into the third treasure room.
There are even fewer things in this treasure room, with only a few items placed on the cabinets, but at first glance, you can tell that these are real good things.
Three of the pill bottles actually contained three translucent spherical crystals, about the size of a thumb. They were actually the essence of the gods that could enhance the degree of compatibility between martial artists and the attributes of divine texts!
Long Yu and Shu Chan have both taken this thing once. If they want to continue taking it, they can only do so after entering the secret realm of the kingly way. It will have no effect at all even if they absorb it now.
"Barbarian, take one first and absorb it. We can talk about the other two later."
Long Yu threw one of the divine essences directly to Man Xin.
Man Xin took it in his hands without hesitation. After the explanation, he knew that after taking this thing, it could improve his compatibility with the attributes of the divine text. It was an extremely rare treasure.
Currently, Man Xin is only compatible with the first level of the shadow attribute divine text, which is still relatively weak. If he can make further progress, he will be able to unleash a stronger power of the Storm Demon Blade in his hand.
With the inheritance of the Storm Demon Blade, if Man Xin grows up fully, he will definitely not be weaker than Shu Chan!
"I'm afraid we'll still face danger after we get out, so I absorbed it directly to improve my strength. Brother Long, Princess, you guys keep going."
After Man Xin obtained the essence of the God's Heir, he decided to absorb it completely.
Long Yu had no objection to this, and nodded, saying: "Well, only the Shura Divine Script can open the stone door here, and the possibility of outsiders coming in is very low. You can absorb the essence of the God's Heir here."
In addition to the essence of the divine heir, there are some other special treasures in this third treasure room, among which there are actually two divine inscriptions!
The engraving of divine words can allow martial artists to comprehend the second level of divine power. However, martial artists in the divine martial world do not know the three levels of divine power.
Comprehension through copying, comprehension through engraving, and comprehension of the source of divine texts. The power of divine texts comprehended through these three channels varies greatly and is at three different levels. However, comprehension of the source of divine texts is equivalent to nothing to the martial artists in the Shenwu world, because the source of divine texts does not exist in the entire Shenwu world.
The source of the divine text is the place where the most original power in the universe gathers, and the Shenwu world is just the small world of the Nine Nether Dragon. Of course, the source of the divine text cannot exist there.
Therefore, in the Shenwu world, engraving divine texts has become a way for martial artists to comprehend the most powerful divine texts!
Now, Long Yu has 108 Death Divine Scriptures and more than 70 Shura Divine Scriptures on his body, but if he wants to have one for every person in Tianyu Manor and Shura Mansion, it is still a long way to go, especially since General Huo Yuanbai will lead a hundred or so warriors from the Demon Nightmare Legion to the Beixue Dynasty in the near future.
"Once the situation stabilizes, we will release all the disciples of the Zhentian Sect in the Dragon Skeleton Ancient Pagoda. There are hundreds of them... We will also need to train them well."
Long Yu thought in his heart.
For the time being, he did not release all the disciples of Zhentian Sect, because he was afraid that Tianyu Manor would be too chaotic. After all, it was a newly acquired territory, and he did not want Hongyue to be too tired to manage it.
When Long Yu goes back next time and releases all the disciples of Zhentian Sect, the total population of the entire Tianyu Manor will definitely exceed one thousand people.
Without enough resources for cultivation, these disciples of Zhentian Sect would have absolutely no future in the Beixue Dynasty, and would even be discriminated against wherever they go.
Long Yu, who brought everyone out from Tianyu Island, certainly didn't want to see such a situation happen.
The two divine seals that the Shadow King prepared for Shu Chan were one for fire and one for life. Needless to say, they were extremely precious.
"Long Yu, you are also compatible with the Life Attribute Divine Scripture at the fourth level. How about giving you this Life Attribute Divine Scripture?"
Shuchan suggested.
"no need."
Long Yu shook his head: "Even if you engrave this divine text of life on me, I don't have much time to comprehend it."
This is the truth. Now Long Yu has two Divine Scripture Source Stones on him, one is the Shura Source Stone, and the other is the Death Source Stone held in the hands of the Death Messenger. As long as Long Yu wants to comprehend the Divine Scripture of Death, the Death Messenger will take it out and give it to Long Yu.
Currently, Long Yu’s comprehension of the Death Divine Scripture has only reached one thousandth, and there is still a long way to go. For the time being, he certainly does not have time to comprehend the engravings of other Life Divine Scriptures.
Long Yu possesses the Self-Healing Divine Scripture and the Siphon Divine Scripture, which are sufficient for the time being. He only needs to cultivate the Nine Nether Tyrant Body well, and his life will not be threatened under normal circumstances.
If you encounter an opponent that is too strong, then no matter how many life attribute texts you comprehend, it will be useless.
The two collected the divine runes and the essence of the gods, and there was only one thing left in the third treasure room—a black charcoal-like thing with some kind of shadow-attributed divine rune power attached to it, and no one knew what it was.
Next to this thing, there is a small note that seems to explain its origin:
"This item is very old. I saw it when I was young. With it, I comprehended the magic text and founded Shadow Magic Trace, which became the largest sect in Shura County! Perhaps through this item, you, the princess, can find its source and gain stronger power."
This series of small words revealed the origin of this black charcoal-like substance. It turned out to be the origin of the Shadow Demon!
"You actually left this thing to me... In my opinion, we should give this thing to Mo Zhai the genius."
Shu Chan's eyes lit up, but then she thought of Mo Zhaitian.
Mo Zhaitian is now training in the Beixue Dynasty. If he gets this thing, his strength will definitely be improved. Moreover, this thing should have belonged to Mo Zhaitian, but the Shadow King could only put it in this treasure house, lock it with the Shura Divine Script, and let Shu Chan take it.
"I don't mind."
Long Yu nodded. No matter what inheritance this black charcoal-like substance represented, it was ultimately not as good as his Nine Nether Dragon inheritance, so there was no need to fight for it.
The Death Envoy did not say anything, which meant that this thing could not be compared with the inheritance of the Nine Nether Dragon, and there was no need for Long Yu to seize it.
"There is one last room."
Shu Chan raised her head and looked at the last stone door of the Shadow Treasury, with a puzzled look in her eyes: "The Shadow King even left the things he used to create the Shadow Treasure in the third room. What more precious things will be in the fourth room?"
"Let's go in and take a look."
Long Yu activated the Shura Source Stone and gradually opened the fourth stone door. He soon saw that there was nothing special in the next room. There was only a stone platform in the middle, on which was placed something that looked like a piece of bone.
"It's a piece of bone."
Long Yu frowned slightly.
"And this bone doesn't seem to have any strength."
Shu Chan stepped into the fourth treasure room with doubts.
The two looked towards the central stone platform and saw a three-foot-long piece of eerie white bones. It did not look like human bones, but rather like a part of some ancient giant creature.
"It's the remains of an ancient dragon elephant."
Just as the two were puzzled, the grim voice of the Death Envoy rang in Long Yu's ears, a voice that only he could hear: "The Ancient Dragon Elephants are a group that Lord Jiuyou Dragon Emperor once captured and raised in his own small world... It seems that even this group of Ancient Dragon Elephants could not escape the catastrophe of that year, otherwise, with the power and lifespan of the Ancient Dragon Elephants, they would not be unknown in this world."
"What's the use of this piece of ancient dragon elephant's bones?"
Long Yu's mind moved and he asked.
"It is possible to refine war weapons. If the bones of the ancient dragon elephant are used as the main material for refining weapons, the weapons refined will at least be of the ancient level."
Death made the cold voice continue to reach Long Yu's ears: "It can also be used to make pills. If this three-foot-long piece of ancient dragon elephant bones is given to an excellent alchemist, at least ten dragon elephant pills can be made. This is an ancient-level pill. Taking it can permanently enhance the physical strength of martial artists."
"It's actually an ancient-level weapon and pill refining material!"
Long Yu's eyes suddenly lit up. This was a real treasure that was rare and could not be found!
When the black charcoal-like origin of the magic trace appeared, the Death Envoy said nothing. But now the ancient dragon elephant bones attracted the Death Envoy to speak out and give instructions, which shows that this is a real treasure.
Compared with the battle soldiers, Long Yu hoped to use the ancient dragon elephant bones to refine ten dragon elephant pills. This is an ancient-grade elixir. Taking it can permanently enhance the physical strength of the martial artist, which is equivalent to a powerful body-refining martial art!
In the Shenwu world, most martial artists do not practice body-building martial arts. This is because body-building martial arts have too low attack power and can only be used for passive defense. They are extremely difficult to practice and are not very useful.
But the Dragon Elephant Pill is different. Once taken, it will automatically transform the martial artist's body. The martial artist does not need to do anything actively to strengthen his body.
I’m afraid that such an elixir has never appeared in the entire Shenwu world!
"If you want to refine ancient-level elixirs, you must at least enter the level of the Kingly Secret Realm. In this Shenwu world, alchemists at the Kingly Secret Realm level are rare."
Death dealt a cold blow to Long Yu.
"It doesn't matter. Sooner or later, I will be able to enter the secret realm of the kingly way. It won't be too late to refine the elixir then."
Long Yu was in high spirits, without any sign of frustration at all.
