Chapter 054: The Cave Has a Mysterious Mechanism, Total Recommendations Exceeding Thousands, Additional Updates

  This chapter is an extra update for today, and it will be updated continuously in the following time.

  The Longyuan Jian was shaking more and more violently, and Li Wenjun had to expend a great deal of effort to control it. However, as he inputted more of his energy, his control over the Longyuan Jian actually grew weaker.

  Li Wenjun didn't know if this would harm the Dragon Head Goose Feather Knife, and since he was about to lose control of it anyway, he let out a loud shout and swung the knife at the mountain slope.

  A four or five foot long blade flew out of the dragon head goose feather knife, with a loud "boom" sound, it chopped onto the mountain slope, sending shattered stones and dust flying everywhere, with many shattered stones splashing towards Li Wenjun's face.

  Li Wenjun hastily covered his face with his sleeve, and after a short wait until the dust settled, he flew to the knife mark. The knife mark on the mountain slope was longer than the previous one by a large margin, its width had become as wide as two fists, and its depth had increased significantly.

  The effect of the trial cut was extremely ideal, and Li Wenjun burst out laughing. After two consecutive trials, he can now be sure that this knife is not an ordinary knife, but a magical instrument, a treasure that only cultivators can fully unleash its power.

  This is really a good time for a nap, and someone has brought me a pillow!

  Li Wenjun was only short of a handy weapon, and with this magical instrument in hand, his combat power had increased by several times. In the case where he held the Dragon Head Goose Feather Knife, if he encountered Wang Yonggui again, he would only need to make one knife move to cut Wang Yonggui in half.

  Compared with fireball technique, the knife edge emitted by Dragon Head Goose Feather Knife is undoubtedly more practical.

  Li Wenjun wanted to try again, but he was shocked to find that the spiritual power he had just condensed had disappeared. The knife he had just chopped out had consumed more than half a day's worth of his accumulated spiritual power, leaving him empty-handed.

  Li Wenjun was tongue-tied, the big move of the Dragon Head Goose Feather Knife was fierce, but compared to Fireball Technique and Immovable Diamond Technique, it consumed more spiritual power, it was simply a tiger that ate spiritual power, and if he wasn't careful, his spiritual power would be exhausted.

  This point requires extra attention, when fighting with others, you must carefully calculate the amount of Fa power, and cannot consume it all at once just to get a thrill. Only by always keeping some reserve can you cope with various unexpected situations.

  Without his magical powers, Li Wenjun was unable to continue testing the sword. He happily put away the Dragon Head Goose Feather Knife and prepared to wait until his powers recovered before continuing to test it. He carried the hunting spear and headed towards the mountain cave.

  The mechanisms and ambushes in the passage leading into the cave were mostly broken by him using stones, leaving very few remaining. He stood at the entrance, first using his hunting spear to tap on reachable places, then confirmed there was no danger and took a few steps forward before stopping again, continuing to strike the surroundings with his spear.

  Li Wenjun's caution allowed him to dodge a fatal attack, as the stone he used to break the mechanism was smaller than the cross-section of the passage, making it unlikely to hit the top of the passage.

  Wang Yonggui had set up a trap in the middle of the passage, which was a crossbow with a poisonous arrow. The poisonous arrow was hidden above the passage and would be triggered instantly when someone touched it. When the crossbow shot out, it made a sharp piercing sound. If Li Wenjun stood under the crossbow, he wouldn't have been able to dodge it at all.

  Li Wenjun looked at the crossbow bolt that had just been shot into the ground, and while he still had a lingering fear, he was also secretly rejoicing. Only now did he understand why Wang Yonggui had once said that even if he died, he would drag him down to be buried together. Wang Yonggui's confidence must have come from this.

  After walking through a passageway of over 20 feet, Li Wenjun entered the cave and was amazed to find that it was very large, with an elongated shape, like a jujube core enlarged countless times, bulging in the middle and tapering at both ends.

  Inside the cave, there were many things, pots and pans, bowls and plates, all complete. Li Wenjun also saw a large amount of grain, firewood, oil, salt, soy sauce, vinegar, and tea. In addition, he saw a table with the Four Treasures of the Study arranged on it. On one corner of the table was placed a book and a thick stack of manuscripts.

  Li Wenjun took out a piece of silver and cut off a long strip with the dragon-headed goose feather knife, trying it on that book and manuscript. The silver strip did not change, and there was no poison on it.

  Li Wenjun sat in front of the desk, flipping through books and manuscripts.

  That book is a knife spectrum, called the Soul-Cutting Knife Spectrum, which is a very high-level martial art. Li Wenjun flipped through it and shook his head. This knife spectrum is indeed high-level, but it's a worldly skill that can't be used in conjunction with the Dragon Head Goose Feather Knife. For him, it was at most just a reference value.

  That manuscript was handwritten, and Li Wenjun read the first page, and he was stunned. The author of the manuscript was actually Wang Yonggui.

  Wang Yonggui began by stating his intention, in a tone of extreme pride, that he was no weaker than the great masters of the current era. He had intended to find an apprentice to pass on his skills, but people were too foolish to understand his ingenious mechanical techniques. Not wanting his skills to be lost, he wrote them down, not seeking to spread them throughout the world, but rather to appreciate them himself.

  Li Wenjun looked at this article, which was written in a sour and talented style, and couldn't help but feel both amused and annoyed. The impression Wang Yonggui had left on him had always been one of extreme cruelty, yet he never expected to see this side of him.

  After a moment of emotion, Li Wenjun began to flip through the manuscript of the mechanical technique. After a simple glance, he had to admit that the mechanical technique was very profound and Wang Yonggui was indeed a genius in this aspect. Many ideas gave people a feeling of sudden enlightenment. Whoever holds this manuscript would find it difficult not to become a skilled mechanic.

  Li Wenjun unceremoniously prepared to put the knife spectrum and manuscript into his treasure trove. He didn't need the knife spectrum, but he could leave it for his relatives and friends. As for the mechanism technique, if he had time, he would study it. The heavy mechanisms set up by Wang Yonggui left a deep impression on him. At a time when his strength was still relatively weak, this was not a bad way to save his life.

  Li Wenjun continued to wander around the cave, and soon he found a wooden box in one corner of the cave. When he opened it, he found that it was filled with gold, silver, and precious jewels.

  At the very top, there were dozens of gold and silver ornaments, inlaid with various precious stones and pearls. Below that was a brocade pouch filled with gems, the largest of which was as big as an egg, and the smallest was as small as a pigeon's egg. At the bottom layer, it was all gold and silver ingots, among which there were 213 gold ingots weighing fifty taels each, and over a hundred silver ingots weighing fifty taels each.

  Li Wenjun roughly calculated that if all the jewels in this box were converted into silver, they would be worth at least 200,000 taels.

  200,000 taels!

  How many people does Wang Yonggui need to kill and how many families does he need to destroy in order to get so much money?
