1074 Ten Steps to Kill a Person, Leaving No Trace for a Thousand Miles (3)
Du Sanzhen and his companions didn’t hide anything. Whatever they knew, they would tell Zhang Zhenbiao.
“Brother Zhang, this is your Sword Tower. That day, due to significant personal exhaustion, I urgently went into seclusion to recover and took the Sword Tower with me. I hope you understand.”
Han Muye held the golden four-layered Sword Tower in his hands and returned it to Zhang Zhenbiao.
A trace of excitement flashed across Zhang Zhenbiao’s face as he nodded and accepted it.
This was something he relied on for his livelihood; he couldn’t afford to lose it.
Han Muye’s claim of needing seclusion due to exhaustion was just an excuse. With this Sword Tower, he had explored numerous sword artifacts and gained many insights about the Immortal World.
In the past few days, he had gained a deeper understanding of the immortal realm through the Sword Tower.
Han Muye returned the Sword Tower, and Zhang Zhenbiao felt delighted.
As they entered the garrison, the conversations between the two of them became more relaxed, with less estrangement.
Although the fire city suffered heavy losses this time, they had ultimately defended the city and had made significant contributions against the Gale Bandits and the Ascendant Tiger Guards.
Zhang Zhenbiao was afraid that he would gain unexpected benefits from this disaster. His meritorious deeds were truly remarkable.
He didn’t hide anything and told Han Muye about it.
“Han Brother, I’ll hold onto these merits for now. You haven’t become an official disciple of the sect yet, so you can’t exchange them for rewards.”
“When you become an official disciple, I will return all the merits to you.”
As Zhang Zhenbiao spoke, he handed over three palm-sized stones of golden-red color.
These stones contained the power of flames and a hint of strange energy.
“These are the Immortal Stones condensed by the Nine-Death Insects in Flame. They are quite useful.”
Lowering his voice, Zhang Zhenbiao whispered, “If you want to nurture the Nirvana Pearl, these Immortal Stones can be used.”
Nirvana Pearl.
According to Zhang Zhenbiao’s account, the Nirvana Pearl was secretly brought by Peng Ming and had been hidden in the underground geothermal fire of Sanhuo City for thousands of years.
Over the course of a thousand years, this pearl had been absorbing the power of the geothermal fire in Sanhuo City, slowly accumulating the power of nirvana.
Peng Ming also explained that when he fused with the third incarnation, he had visited the Bitter Immortal Realm and obtained a powerful demon incarnation that happened to contain a Nirvana Pearl.
For many years, he had wanted to undergo the nirvana process with this pearl and awaken the power of the divine bird within it.
If he could obtain an immortal incarnation, Dao Lord Peng Ming would dominate the immortal realm.
“In the past, the previous generation of the Immortal Demon King encountered a formidable expert and managed to escape by undergoing nirvana rebirth.
“This Nirvana Pearl is what was left behind after their dispersal.”
Each Nirvana Pearl contained a trace of Phoenix soul power, preparing for the process of nirvana.
In theory, each Nirvana Pearl could transform into a Phoenix.
However, once one pearl undergoes rebirth, it becomes extremely difficult for the others to have the opportunity.
“The current generation of the Immortal Demon King is collecting the scattered Nirvana Pearls. As the archenemy, the Ascendant Tiger Guards naturally won’t miss this opportunity.
“The Red Sandalwood Stone Marrow brought out by the Wanshen Trading Company is used to attract the Nirvana Pearls.”
“The Gale Bandits and the Ascendant Tiger Guards that followed are there to seize the power of the Nirvana Pearls.”
Peng Ming had attracted the Ascendant Tiger Guards because the Great Demon incarnation was related to the demons under the Ascendant Heaven Immortal Demon King. He wanted to use their strength to activate the power of the Nirvana Pearl.
For the Immortal Demon King, being able to control another Phoenix power and undergo rebirth, competing against the Immortal Demon King, would be a great achievement.
Zhang Zhenbiao’s eyes revealed a profound light, and his sword intent surged in secret. “Daring to enter my Mystic Spirit Sword Sect’s territory and wreak havoc, this matter will not be left unresolved.”
Han Muye nodded.
He certainly understood that the authority of a major sect was not to be trifled with.
“Zhang Brother, let’s discuss something,” Han Muye said in a soft voice, looking at Zhang Zhenbiao.
