Cultivation: I have an equipment slot

time flies.

More than a year has passed since Zhang Yan obtained the Great Five Elements Annihilation Palm Seal.

"Great Five Elements Annihilation Palm Print!"

in the room.

Zhang Yan let out a low groan, then gathered all his magical power, and a black handprint appeared in the sky.

The palm print faintly emanates the power of the five elements.

But it also exudes an energy that can annihilate everything.

"Let's see how it goes," she said.

Zhang Yan took out a third-grade low-level magic weapon and lightly touched it with the palm print.

"boom!"

The palm print and the magic weapon collided, producing a loud bang.

Immediately afterward, to Zhang Yan's astonishment, the palm print shattered the magic weapon.

"So powerful?" Zhang Yan's eyes widened in disbelief upon seeing this.

This Great Five Elements Annihilation Palm Seal is a fourth-order spell, so its powerful strength is to be expected.

However, he did not expect that its power would be so strong.

This goes beyond just whether it's powerful or not.

This is simply defying the heavens.

His palm strike just now didn't use all his magic power.

In reality, less than 30% of the power was used.

However, it was this mere 30% of the power that directly shattered a low-grade third-tier magic weapon.

Is this too outrageous?

If he were to unleash his full power, wouldn't he be able to easily destroy a top-grade third-tier magic weapon?
How is this any different from the Nascent Soul stage?
At this moment, Zhang Yan really wanted to put his hands on his hips and ask loudly, "What's the difference between him and someone in the Nascent Soul stage?!"
Ok.

There are still differences.

Don’t say anything else.

The magical power of those in the Nascent Soul stage contains a rich Daoist essence.

That is the power derived from the deep exploration of supernatural abilities.

It is the power of the Great Way.

Zhang Yan is simply incomparable to him.

Despite his ability to act arrogantly during the Golden Core stage, he intends to challenge the Nascent Soul stage.

That's basically wishful thinking.

Only the Dao itself can defeat the Dao.

Otherwise, having more magic power would be meaningless.

"With this Great Five Elements Annihilation Palm Print, I feel that I can say that I have victory in this duel." Zhang Yan took a deep breath.

Although theoretically, he was indeed confident of victory.

But Zhang Yan did not become complacent.

Because he knew that it was precisely at times like these that one should be especially careful and cautious in trying to gain an advantage.

Think of this.

He came out of the seclusion room.

Then they went straight to the residence of the Fire Spirit Heavenly Lord.

"Why are you here?" When Fire Spirit Heavenly Lord saw Zhang Yan, he was stunned for a moment and asked with some surprise, "I heard from Fire Dragon that you went into seclusion. What? You've come out of seclusion?"

"Sigh, fourth-tier spells are more difficult than I imagined." Zhang Yan stood in front of Fire Spirit Heavenly Lord and sighed softly.

"Haha, so that's what it was about!"

"That's normal. Fourth-order spells are inherently difficult, especially since you're only at the Golden Core stage. Learning fourth-order spells will be even harder."

"So don't be discouraged." Fire Spirit Heavenly Lord patted Zhang Yan on the shoulder and said comfortingly.

"But this won't work!"

"What if I can't learn fourth-tier spells and I lose the duel?" Zhang Yan said, a pained expression on his face. "I absolutely cannot lose!"

"Otherwise, things will be tough for us disciples in the lower realms."

"Don't think too much about it. You might not necessarily lose." Fire Spirit Heavenly Lord said to Zhang Yan earnestly, "I have confidence in your strength. After all, I specially picked you back."

When it comes to this.

A smug expression appeared on Huo Lingtianjun's face.

His decision to bring Zhang Yan back was absolutely a brilliant move.

He was very pleased with himself.

"Can……"

"It's precisely because I was chosen by you that I have to win!" Zhang Yan said with a sigh, "If I lose, wouldn't that just mean you have poor judgment in choosing people?"

"This……"

Fire Spirit Heavenly Lord hesitated slightly upon hearing Zhang Yan's words, although...

have to say.

What Zhang Yan said does indeed make sense.

If Zhang Yan really loses, he'll lose face too!
"Moreover, I heard that the cultivators from the upper realm have prepared a fourth-tier magic weapon to deal with me." Although Zhang Yan did not know the situation of the Seventh Prince, it did not stop him from talking nonsense.

"A fourth-tier magic weapon?"

"How can this be!"

When Huo Lingtianjun heard Zhang Yan say that the other party had prepared a fourth-tier magic weapon, he was shocked.

I was suddenly shocked.

He waved his hand quickly.

A fourth-tier magic weapon is a magic weapon for the Nascent Soul stage; ordinary Golden Core stage cultivators simply cannot activate it.

They don't have enough magical power in their bodies!

If you force it, isn't that like stirring up a cesspool with a toothpick?

"How is it impossible!"

“Even I, at the Golden Core stage, have to learn fourth-order spells, so they should have a way to use some fourth-order magic treasures as well,” Zhang Yan said earnestly.

"If you say so..."

"It seems there really is a way."

Upon hearing Zhang Yan's words, Fire Spirit Heavenly Lord thought for a moment and realized that there might indeed be a way to enable a third-tier cultivator to use a fourth-tier magic weapon.

"For example, blood-refined magic weapons."

"Or it could be an ancestral treasure; either way is possible."

"But the Seventh Prince's ancestors didn't have any fourth-tier magic treasures!"

"Their family has inherited fifth-tier magic weapons."

"Oh, it seems there are also sixth-tier magic treasures." Fire Spirit Heavenly Lord said after thinking for a moment.

Zhang Yan: "..."

He never expected that the seventh prince's ancestors were so wealthy.

Fourth-tier magic treasures are not something people care about passing down.

The items to be inherited are all fifth-tier or sixth-tier magic treasures.

"However, he cannot use fifth-order or sixth-order magic treasures even at the Golden Core stage, not even his ancestral magic treasures."

If he really wants to use a fourth-tier magic weapon, then he'll have to use the Blood Refinement Technique.

"However, the Blood Refinement Technique will also cause damage to him. I feel that he shouldn't be so reckless. After all, this is just a bet and won't affect him personally."

Fire Spirit Heavenly Lord thought for a moment and then spoke.

"It might not affect him personally, but that's not necessarily true."

"He's just the seventh prince, not the head of the Yuhua Dynasty, not even the crown prince. Now that he finally has a chance to prove himself, he'll definitely fight tooth and nail, right?" It has to be said.

In order to win this game.

Zhang Yan had also done his homework thoroughly.

They conducted a detailed investigation into the Yuhua Dynasty and the Seventh Prince.

He was also aware of the Seventh Prince's awkward situation within the Yuhua Dynasty.

"Um……"

"If that's what you're saying, it's not impossible."

Fire Spirit Heavenly Lord sighed, and at this moment he also realized what was happening.

That scoundrel Zhang Yan.

The drunkard's intention is not to drink!

He was actually just there to get something in return. With that in mind, he said, "I can't give you a fourth-tier magic weapon, but I have a few top-grade third-tier magic weapons here. I wonder if they can be of any help to you."

"well?

Elder, what are you saying?

How could I possibly accept your magical treasure?
Bringing me to the Divine Weapon Pavilion is already an immense favor to me.

Seeing that the other party was being so polite, even offering him a magic weapon.

Zhang Yan quickly refused, saying, "Elder, please rest assured, I will do my utmost and will definitely not let you down!"

Fire Spirit Heavenly Lord: "..."

"Alright, a low-grade fourth-tier magic weapon. If you're not willing, I really can't help you."

When Huo Lingtianjun finished speaking, he let out a soft sigh.

I used to think Zhang Yan was an honest person.

I didn't expect this guy to be so ruthless when he spoke.

"A low-grade fourth-tier magic weapon?" Upon hearing this, Zhang Yan's face showed a hesitant expression; he was somewhat tempted.

However, I feel that the rank of a fourth-grade low-level magic weapon seems a bit low.

That's why I hesitated.

"If it doesn't work, then forget it."

Fire Spirit Heavenly Lord spoke quietly.

"No, no, no, I'll take it."

"So what if it's only a low-grade fourth-order item? Even though it's just a low-grade fourth-order item, I will fight well and will definitely not let you down!"

"When the time comes, we'll definitely demonstrate the power of a high-grade fourth-tier magic weapon using this low-grade fourth-tier magic weapon!"

Zhang Yan quickly smiled and said to Huo Ling Tianjun.

"Alright, I don't need you to make any promises. I'll give you this Nine Dragons Fire Cover. Although it's just a low-grade fourth-tier magic weapon, it's a rare magic weapon that combines offense and defense."

I spent a lot of time during my Nascent Soul stage.

I hope you will treat it well.

As Huo Lingtianjun spoke, a fiery red, net-like cover appeared in his hand and was handed over.

Just like its name suggests.

The cover features nine lifelike fire dragons that look majestic, with flames constantly spewing from their mouths.

"Good baby!"

Before Zhang Yan even took it, he could feel that the Nine Dragons Fire Cover was radiating a scorching heat, which showed that the Nine Dragons Fire Cover was extraordinary.

Then Zhang Yan looked at its attributes again.

[Equipment Name]: Nine Dragons Blazing Shield

[Equipment Tier]: Tier 4, Low Grade
[Equipment Quality]: Purple
【Equipment Effect】: Nine Dragons Protection Lv4: After activation, it allows nine fire dragons to protect the body, which is enough to withstand the attacks of ordinary early-stage Nascent Soul cultivators.

Flame Shield Lv4: Uses flames to envelop the opponent, which can trap a cultivator at the peak of the Golden Core stage, and can trap an ordinary early Nascent Soul stage cultivator for ten breaths.

Fire Spirit Dao Intent Lv4 Mastery: Equipping this item grants you the Mastery of Fire Spirit Dao Intent.

Fire Control Ability LV4: Equipping this item grants you a fourth-tier fire control ability.

There are many entries related to the Nine Dragons Fire Cover.

The Fire Spirit Dao Intent is especially precious.

The Fire Spirit Heavenly Lord in front of me seems to be a genius. When he used the Nine Dragons Fire Cover, he had already mastered the Dao of Fire Spirit. No wonder he was able to advance to the True Self Realm.

If we can maintain this momentum.

The mortal realm is within reach.

Of course.

Zhang Yan didn't know how strong the opponent's momentum was, after all, the opponent hadn't given him any fifth or sixth-tier magic weapons.

He couldn't tell either.

However, regardless of the circumstances, he happily accepted the magic weapon and sincerely thanked the other party.

"No need to be polite. Just like you said, you are someone I brought back from outside. If you lose, I will lose face too." Fire Spirit Heavenly Lord sighed as he spoke.

Actually, his position within the Divine Weapon Pavilion is rather awkward.

Although he was a cultivator from the lower realm.

Moreover, he also felt that he was a cultivator from the lower realm.

But coincidentally, he also married a cultivator from the upper realm.

Therefore, he now feels like he's caught in the middle, whether in the upper or lower realms.

Even so, he still hoped that the cultivators from the lower realms could win.

otherwise……

The cultivators from the lower realms will definitely cause a ruckus then.

Don't underestimate the small number of cultivators from the lower realms; if they were to cause trouble, the consequences would be truly unimaginable.

If nothing else...

In terms of combat power alone, if cultivators at the Mortal Realm do not make a move, then even if there are more True Self Realm cultivators in the Upper Realm than in the Lower Realm.

But they probably wouldn't be a match for cultivators from the lower realms either.

after all……

It is common knowledge that cultivators from the lower realms are incredibly powerful in combat.

"I hope this matter can be resolved peacefully. If we win, we must win gracefully, and we absolutely cannot let the other side feel forced," Fire Spirit Heavenly Lord muttered to himself.

Although the Divine Weapon Pavilion is also one of the five major immortal sects of the Human Race Dao Alliance.

However, in terms of strength, they are actually a bit lacking compared to other sects.

main reason……

The Divine Weapon Pavilion is not good at combat; its members are all weapon refiners.

It's just that they have a relatively high status.

The cultivators in the lower realms were the partners these weapon refiners initially sought out.

after all……

If the cultivators of a sect only know how to refine weapons, then in the eyes of others, that sect is a place where people can indulge in wine and meat at will.

However, it is necessary to have a clear division of labor.

Some people specialize in weapon crafting, while others act as protectors for the weapon crafters.

Only then can the Divine Weapon Pavilion go further.

The idea at the time was good.

But as it has been passed down from generation to generation, the flavor has changed.

The cultivators of the upper realm thought that the cultivators of the lower realm knew nothing but fighting and killing. Although some cultivators of the lower realm also learned how to refine weapons, compared with the cultivators of the upper realm, it was like children playing house.

The cultivators in the lower realms also found it outrageous.

These cultivators from the upper realm rely entirely on their protection, so how can you say they're sharing in the resources?
If the other side didn't also have high-end combat power, they really wanted to enslave all these weapon refiners and make them obediently keep forging magical treasures.

Actually, the main problem is still related to resources.

If there were enough resources, the sect wouldn't have so many troubles.

Fire Spirit Heavenly Lord knew much more about the Divine Weapon Pavilion than Zhang Yan did, and he was also somewhat troubled by the issue of resources.

Don't be fooled by the fact that the Divine Weapon Pavilion is one of the five great immortal sects.

But in reality, they only occupied the Heavenly Fire Great World, one of the thirty-six Great Worlds of humanity.

Compared to those sects that occupy even a dozen or more great worlds.

Their resources are naturally insufficient.

There is only one way to change this situation.

That is to fight!

"If this little guy grows a bit more, he might be able to compete," Fire Spirit Heavenly Lord muttered to himself as he looked at Zhang Yan.

But he didn't say these words.

After all, these things were still too far removed from Zhang Yan's life.

Let him prepare properly for this duel first.

……

After Zhang Yan left in high spirits with the fourth-grade low-level magic weapon.

Also, make good use of the equipment slots to study the contents.

Don’t say anything else.

He benefited greatly from the Dao Intent of Fire Spirit alone.

"Indeed, the Human Alliance made the right choice in coming here. Only here can I truly grow," Zhang Yan thought with a sigh. (End of Chapter)
