Chapter 110: Chapter 93: Nail-Head Seven Arrows Technique (Seeking Subscriptions and Monthly Tickets)
Translator: 549690339
The Great Zhou Capital.
The Imperial Palace, The Imperial Library.
“Daoist Friend, hold on!”
At this moment, the newcomer, seeing the fireball floating in midair, started to panic, his scalp tingling.
But as these words left his mouth, his tension eased, the hidden master seemed willing to speak with him, which offered some hope for his survival.
“Who are you?”
He was about to ask this question, but before he could speak, the next moment, a bursting Spirit Light abruptly appeared, carrying an overpowering force. He didn’t even have time to react before his consciousness plunged into darkness.
Then, his head hit the ground, severed from his body. The blood only began to spray out in the next moment, and the fireball floating in the air instantly extinguished.
Even Emperor Wu of Zhou, a decisive person, couldn’t help staring in disbelief. When the Ancestor spoke, he thought the Ancestor intended to delay time with a conversation.
But he never expected how the situation would change dramatically in the blink of an eye, the Ancestor’s move was swift, decisive, and left him in awe.
Such is our Ancestor of the Zhou family, shaping our Imperial Family, instilling in us a careful and conscientious demeanor.
If Liang Sheng were to know Zhou Kun’s thoughts, he would probably think Zhou Kun was overthinking. It’s indeed possible that the ancestors of Zhou family and him were of the same kind, but it’s a pity they never met.
“Kun, go out.”
Upon hearing this, Zhou Kun did not hesitate, immediately left The Imperial Library, and ordered the Imperial Army to secure the perimeter of twenty meters, forbidding anyone to enter. He personally stood guard outside the door of The Imperial Library.
Inside the room, it was only now that Liang Sheng heaved a sigh of relief, the Fireball Technique and his speech were just means to stabilize the situation, after all, what was there to discuss with him?
A good enemy is a dead enemy.
After all, who knew if this cultivator had any hidden tricks left. Base on his experiences from the countless dramatic situations in his past life, speaking too much now would merely serve as an insult to his past-life profession.
At this time, Liang Sheng calmed his feelings and began searching the cultivator’s body, without any care for the blood, soon discovering silver notes, a nail-head tiny arrow, a jade slip, and two books. There was nothing else to find.
After having confirmed his finding several times, Liang Sheng immediately executed a Fireball Technique, instantly evaporating the corpse, leaving no trace of its existence.
Outside, Emperor Wu, having already received Liang Sheng’s message, entered the room to find no one.
“Kun, be cautious these days. I will be in the palace, so don’t worry.”
This Qi Cultivation First Level cultivator was not a normal person.
After all, which normal person keeps a diary?
At this moment, Liang Sheng was flipping through the two books left behind by the deceased cultivator, initially thinking they would reveal a high-ranking background, yet one was the man’s diary, and the other a fragmented Qi Training Method.
But this was an unexpected pleasant surprise. Liang Sheng had already given up hope of finding out the cultivator’s origin, yet unexpectedly, the information fell into his hands so easily.
Understanding the cultivator’s diary, Liang Sheng realized why Prince Wei almost lost his life, attributing it all to coincidence.
Liang Sheng sighed in relief. The worldly world remained as he knew it, cultivators seldom existed, only occasionally due to a fortunate coincidence.
The previous royal family of East Sun Country did have a brush with Immortal Destiny, yet the family that Zhou Dynasty had defeated and replaced was in fact the result of a local worldly force overthrowing the old dynasty and establishing a new one.
Meaning, the Royal Family of East Sun Country that the Great Zhou destroyed did not actually have a cultivation background. Unfortunately, it could be said that Prince Wei was unlucky to encounter such an anomaly.
During the overthrow of the previous dynasty in East Sun Country, a distinguished military official managed to secure the previous dynasty’s method of cultivation and kept it for himself.
Alas, by the time East Sun Country fell, this noble military official’s lineage had been passed down for more than a thousand years, yet nobody in the family had ever succeeded in cultivation.
The cultivator he had killed today, at the first level of cultivation, was a member of the noble military official’s family, but had no hope in cultivation until he accidentally ate a spirit fruit on his eightieth birthday, unexpectedly opening the door to cultivation.
With the allure of cultivation at his door, he immediately entered closed-door cultivation and paid no attention to the worldly affairs. When he finally stabilized his Qi Cultivation First Stage, by the time he reappeared, East Sun Country had already been integrated into Prince Wei’s territory.
This would not have been a problem, as dynasty changes were common. The trouble arose when his family accidentally violated the laws of Prince Wei’s territory. Coupled with their status as honored warriors of the old dynasty, naturally, with no surprise, they were eradicated.
What transpired afterward was just a series of unfortunate events. One could only say Prince Wei was unlucky to encounter such a one in a thousand years scenario.
However, while relieved, Liang Sheng stared at the jade slip and the nail-head tiny arrow in astonishment. The jade slip recorded several curse techniques.
The minor curse technique that Prince Wei had previously been inflicted with nearly claimed his life if it weren’t for Liang Sheng’s intervention. Prince Wei would have agonizingly met his end.
But this was not the biggest surprise. Inside the record was a formidable forbidden curse technique, the Nail-Head Seven Arrows Technique, or perhaps more aptly termed sorcery!
A cultivator can use this technique in association with the nail-head tiny arrow, offering his lifespan to curse the opponent, thereby depleting the opponent’s lifespan.
If both parties are of the same stage, like Qi Cultivation against Qi Cultivation, the sacrificial offering of lifespan for the curse would equally lessen the opponent’s lifespan..
