Volume 1: Red Dust Sword Sect Chapter 41: Heavenly Sword Decree
Zhang Hao lay on the ground, feeling extremely comfortable, and didn't get up until half a time later, when he calmly crawled up from the ground, humming a little tune that only he could understand, and walked leisurely into the wooden house.
Carefully closing the door, gazing at the Thunderbolt Mother and Child Pill in hand, which flickered with threads of lightning power; biting open his finger to let a drop of essence blood fall onto the Mother Pill, spreading out and dyeing it a deep crimson color, forming a strange network of fine lines that connected the Child Pill to the Mother Pill, so fine that they were almost invisible to the naked eye. Satisfied, he put away the Thunderbolt Mother and Child Pill in his Qiankun bag, closed his eyes, and began to cultivate on the couch.
At dawn, Zhang Hao finished his cultivation. At this time, he only heard Zhang Yuefeng's voice outside the house, "Younger brother, younger brother!"
As soon as Zhang Hao heard the joyful tone in Zhang Yuefeng's voice, he was slightly surprised and felt a twinge of guilt. Yesterday, when he left with his head hung low, he had been feeling somewhat downcast. Now, hearing Zhang Yuefeng's urgent voice, he hastily opened the door to greet him.
"Brother, what great joy!" Zhang Yuefeng couldn't conceal his excitement as soon as he saw Zhang Hao, and loudly congratulated him with a beaming smile.
"Oh! Older brother, what are you referring to?" Zhang Hao asked hastily, seeing his joyful expression.
"Look, this is the Heavenly Sword Token that my junior sister asked me to return to you. From today on, you are the master of Heavenly Sword Peak." Zhang Yuefeng said as he handed over a snow-white, three-inch-long sword-shaped token to Zhang Hao.
"Is it just this matter?" Zhang Hao pinched the token in his hand, slightly disappointed.
Zhang Yuefeng saw Zhang Hao's expression, which did not show much surprise, as if everything was within his expectation. Looking at him with a thoughtful appearance, he suddenly realized what was going on.
Younger brother is getting married to younger sister on August 12th, and from top to bottom of the Red Dust Sword Sect, everything will be his. A mere Heaven's Sword Peak isn't much of a surprise! It's just that he himself seems a bit rash. Thinking this, he cupped his hands and said, "The token has been delivered, I'll head back now. If there's anything, younger brother can notify me with the transmission paper crane!"
He walked a few steps and stopped, saying: "By the way, junior brother, don't underestimate this Heavenly Sword Token. This thing is much better than the tokens of other inner disciples in the sect. With the Heavenly Sword Token, you can go to the Red Dust Sword Sect's Book Pavilion, the Red Dust Building, and even use the transmission gate!"
After finishing speaking, Zhang Yuefeng walked away without looking back.
Zhang Hao raised his head and cupped his hands: "Thank you, brother!"
Zhang Yuefeng listened to Zhang Hao's voice, didn't turn his head and smiled as he went down the mountain. However, in his heart, he was thinking that since his junior brother returned from Fengmo Valley last time, he had become more polite, which is a good thing for Hongchen Sword Sect!
He couldn't help but smile sincerely, smiling very relaxed and at ease.
Looking at the white token in his hand, Zhang Hao infused his spiritual energy into it. In the distance, on the Heaven Sword Peak, layer upon layer of prohibition slowly dissipated, and from within the misty veil beside the cliff of the Nameless Mountain, a thick iron chain gradually emerged; the iron chain stretched across the valley between the Nameless Mountain and the Heaven Sword Peak, connecting the two mountains.
Is this considered going home? Zhang Hao smiled slightly and walked towards the iron chain.
Her right foot lightly stepped on the iron chain, and the iron chain swayed gently. The chilly mist rose from the valley below, carrying a faintly cold and damp air.
"You coward! How can you be so timid!" Xiang sneered at Zhang Hao, who had withdrawn his foot.
Zhang Hao's face was slightly red, after all, he wasn't a person of this world. He still had the perspective and thinking of his previous life inside him. Although he was trying hard to adapt to everything, as someone who had acrophobia in his past life, when faced with the empty valley, he felt an instinctual fear.
Taking a deep breath, he ignored the wound, and spiritual energy surged through his body, making him feel much lighter. Closing his eyes, he sensed the iron chain beneath his feet with his divine sense, and in an instant, his figure flashed onto the chain.
His feet moved quickly, and in just a few breaths, he arrived at the top of Tianjian Peak.
Zhang Hao landed on the Tianjian Peak, with a majestic sweep of his Taoist robe's hem, and gave Xiang a triumphant glance.
A face full of disdain.
A row of stone steps appeared underfoot, and at the end of the stone steps was an ancient and simple stone gate. The stone gate was a forbidden place, where the misty heavenly spiritual energy churned restlessly inside.
Zhang Hao took out a sword-shaped token and inserted it into a recess on the left side of the stone gate. The stone gate slowly rotated to the right, emitting a creaking friction sound.
The stone gate opened, and a thick aura of heaven and earth rushed towards him. Zhang Hao walked in and closed the stone gate.
"Not bad! There should be a spiritual vein under the mountain peak. The heavenly energy is so dense, there must be an array!" Xiang exclaimed while looking around at everything.
In front of it, there were dozens of steps. On the side of the steps was a platform. To the right of the platform was a cold pond about 7 or 8 mu in size. Behind the cold pond was a six-story pavilion. The plaque above the outer hall of the pavilion had three crooked and twisted large ancient characters that read "Tianjian Building".
Zhang Hao looked around curiously, his nose twitching as he glanced at Han Chi, a smile spreading across his face. The Hundred Flowers Spring below was nearly a hundred years old!
Zhang Hao couldn't help but lick his lips and swallow a mouthful of saliva.
At this moment, a fiery red figure shot out from the left side of the attic.
"Who?" Zhang Hao was shocked, and with a swift movement, he flew over the cold pool, his body as fast as lightning.
A small, entirely black creature with a dark shell on its back that occasionally emitted faint red flames, stretched out two front claws holding onto a fifth-grade spirit stone, slowly devouring it. Along with the sound of cracking glass, the fifth-grade spirit stone was instantly swallowed into the creature's belly.
After eating the Ling Stone, its hind legs stood up, and its front paws made a gesture of bowing and saluting to Zhang Hao, making "squeak squeak" sounds in its mouth.
This thing looks like an enlarged version of a snail from the previous life, but it has four limbs and its appearance is very agile, but Zhang Hao can't tell its grade.
"Smelly brat! This is the divine beast of the Red Flame lineage, the Red Flame Fuxi Swallowing Spirit Beast. This little thing was extremely rare even in the ancient desolate era. Last time you successfully built your foundation, this little guy was probably attracted by the heavenly spiritual energy stirred up by you. Now that you've returned to Tianjian Peak, the grand array within Tianjian Peak has been activated, it must have a way to escape, otherwise it wouldn't be so smug!"
"That's right!" It was this little thing last time. Zhang Hao remembered what Xiao Cong said.
The red flame beast Chiyou swallowed the spirit beast, and saw Zhang Hao staring at himself. He didn't open the stone gate, nor was he in a hurry. Instead, he curled up his body and retreated into the shell behind him, leaving only the two small tentacles on top of his head outside.
A moment later, a palm-sized spiritual energy cloud gathered on the top of the Devouring Beast's head, slowly rotating without stopping, and a faint snoring sound came from under its shell.
Xiao Yi saw Laugh and said: "Let me take this little thing, as long as it enters the tower, it will never have a chance to resist again!"
"Let it be! Let this little thing sleep here! Don't go disturb others!"
Xiang saw Zhang Hao's serious expression, but he didn't give up and continued to say, "I'm not catching him because of you, this thing isn't simple!" As he spoke, he was about to summon the Tongtian Tower.
"Do you know or not that when a child is scared awake from their sleep, they will have psychological shadows when they grow up."
As soon as he heard Zhang Hao's inexplicable words, he opened his mouth to speak, but didn't know what to say. He stared blankly at Zhang Hao like a wooden chicken, and saw that Zhang Hao was dead serious. Only then did he reluctantly enter the tower, disappearing from view.
He painfully took out a second-grade spirit stone from his Qiankun bag and threw it in front of the Spirit Devouring Beast.
"Squat down and speak in a gentle tone, 'Stop pretending to sleep, get up, I'll let you go!'"
The Spirit Beast's front paws quickly grasped the Spirit Stone, and it let out a series of high-pitched squeaking sounds as it glanced at Zhang Hao before rapidly dashing out through the open stone gate.
Zhang Hao closed the door and immediately called out: "Dead old man, this little thing is too clever! Just now I was testing where it came from, didn't expect it not to fall for it!"
"I knew you little rascal had no good intentions! If this thing enters the Tongtian Tower, I'm afraid it will even devour the foundation of the tower. I was just joking earlier!"
"Now carefully search and see where there is a loophole in this mountain peak. Once found out, next time this little thing won't be able to escape."
Zhang Hao listened intently, and his divine consciousness spread out in all directions. Soon, he discovered a small hole about three feet in diameter on the small mountain inside the Cold Pool. The small hole was bottomless, and it was unknown where it led to. Judging from its size, the Red Flame Fowling Beast must have sneaked into the mountain through this hole.
