Daily Intelligence, Starting Out I Obtain the Heaven-devouring Demonic Art

33: Nine-orifice spiritual dragon bone!Today’s Intel 2: Duan Yun Stronghold robbed a caravan today and obtained a nine aperture spirit dragon bone.

”Duan Yun Stronghold... nine aperture spirit dragon bone...!”

Wang Teng murmured inwardly, a sharp glint flashing in his eyes.

Duan Yun Stronghold was a bandit gang located around Ancient Wind City, often robbing passing merchants.

Of course, Duan Yun Stronghold was very sensible; they only robbed small merchants and never touched large ones, so they lived a rather comfortable life.

At least no major powers bothered them, and minor powers were helpless against them.

Now, Duan Yun Stronghold had actually robbed a nine aperture spirit dragon bone from a small merchant’s caravan, which could be considered a stroke of great luck.

Afterward, Wang Teng first scattered the five-colored earth around the thunderstruck wood, then buried the fragment of the undying medicine in the soil.

At this moment, the willow branches on the thunderstruck wood grew another section, and its vitality became even more vigorous.

And the fragment of the undying medicine also began to recover on its own.

He wasn’t sure if it was his illusion, but he always felt that the fragment of the undying medicine was very afraid of the thunderstruck wood, or perhaps it was reverence and fawning.

Later, Wang Teng gave the Beast Milk recipe to Xing’er and instructed her that Beast Milk must be included in their three daily meals.

This way, the Beast Milk would continuously strengthen their bodies and Cultivation Aptitude.

Finally, Wang Teng took out the ancient sword.

The blade of this ancient sword was almost broken into two halves, the fracture looking as if it had been forcefully split by immense power, with jagged edges still embedded with a few dark red iron sands, and it was severely rusted.

The material of the hilt was neither metal nor wood, seeming quite extraordinary.

It was just a pity that it had long been gnawed away by time, leaving only half a section; where the shark silk rope was originally wrapped, only a few wisps of faded silk floss remained, crumbling away with every gust of wind.

Near the guard, there was a shallow carved pattern, which were the four characters ’Only My Dao Sword’, their strokes so worn that they were almost illegible.

”This ancient sword was originally called Only My Dao Sword, but I wonder what its origin is? And with the current state of this sword, how can it help Ye Guying reach the peak?”

Wang Teng frowned in thought.

Suddenly, his eyes lit up.

When he was still in his Family, he had heard of some special weapons that Cultivators nurtured with their own magical power and flesh and blood.

The stronger the Cultivator, the stronger the weapon he nurtured would be.

Since that was the case, Wang Teng’s mind stirred, and he directly placed the Only My Dao Sword into his Qi Sea, continuously nurturing the Only My Dao Sword with the magical power within his Qi Sea.

And indeed, the Only My Dao Sword, nourished by magical power, was like a parched land meeting sweet rain, continuously absorbing Wang Teng’s magical power to repair itself.

At the same time, it also made the connection between the Only My Dao Sword and Wang Teng increasingly close.

After completing all this, Wang Teng then began to head towards Duan Yun Stronghold... Duan Yun Stronghold was perched on a solitary peak, like an axe-hewn, knife-cut cliff, with half of it submerged in the sea of clouds.

The stronghold gate, cast from profound iron and thousand-year-old dark wood, was tightly shut, its knockers two coiling bronze snake patterns, with deep stones embedded in the snake’s eyes, glowing faintly green, captivating and terrifying.

The stronghold walls snaked along the mountain, and patrolling Disciples held ghost-head sabers, with three small bronze flags stuck behind them, their banners fluttering without wind, depicting ferocious ghost faces.

Inside the stronghold, over a hundred strong men in tight-fitting clothes were practicing in the training ground, their fists and feet generating wind, displaying formidable power.

Wang Teng did not force his way into Duan Yun Stronghold; instead, he killed a bandit, changed into the bandit’s clothes, and successfully entered the stronghold.

Afterward, Wang Teng followed some bandits, doing chores while observing the stronghold.

Suddenly, Wang Teng’s eyebrows twitched.

On the highest cloud-gazing platform, a bandit respectfully handed a bone, resembling jade, to the Stronghold Master, Shi Jingshan.

”Stronghold Master! While tallying the robbed goods, we actually discovered this treasure bone! Your subordinate immediately brought it for the Stronghold Master’s inspection!”

The bandit spoke excitedly, his face full of anticipation.

”This... could this be the legendary nine aperture spirit dragon bone?”

Shi Jingshan, who was leaning against the railing, showed a look of surprise, quickly took the palm-sized, jade-like bone into his hand, and examined it carefully.

Finally, he confirmed that it was indeed the legendary nine aperture spirit dragon bone.

He had never expected that by merely robbing a small merchant caravan, he could obtain such a supreme treasure; it was truly heaven’s help.

To put it bluntly, with this bone, he would no longer be confined to this place; he wanted to strive, he wanted to venture out, he wanted to stand shoulder to shoulder with those major powers.

At this moment, Shi Jingshan’s ambition was soaring, with an air of dominating the world and being the sole sovereign.

Just as Shi Jingshan was fantasizing about his Realm advancing by leaps and bounds with the nine aperture spirit dragon bone and expanding Duan Yun Stronghold... a figure flashed past, as swift as lightning.

Subsequently, Shi Jingshan discovered that the nine aperture spirit dragon bone in his hand had disappeared.

He stared at his empty palm, immediately realizing what had happened, and his anger surged to the extreme.

”Quick... quickly catch that damned fellow! I will skin him alive, tear out his tendons, and dismember him!”

Shi Jingshan roared.

The nine aperture spirit dragon bone had just fallen into his hands, and he was just about to spread his wings like an eagle and swallow the world.

But unexpectedly, before the nine aperture spirit dragon bone had even warmed up, it was snatched away by someone else; it was simply outrageous.

As the Stronghold Master of Duan Yun Stronghold, he had always been the one to rob others, but he never expected to be robbed himself today; this was a disgrace.

Upon hearing this, all the other bandits chased after Wang Teng.

But how could these bandits possibly catch up to Wang Teng, who was using the Movement Character Secret? They could only watch Wang Teng’s back disappear further and further into the distance.

They couldn’t catch him, absolutely couldn’t catch him.

Even Shi Jingshan had no way, he simply couldn’t catch up to Wang Teng.

”Investigate... you must find out who he is! How dare he steal my things? He’s truly seeking death!”

Shi Jingshan roared.

”Stronghold Master, but... but we didn’t even see what he looked like, how are we supposed to investigate?”

A bandit asked helplessly.

”To hell with you! I don’t care what method you use, you must find him out!”

Shi Jingshan, consumed by rage, kicked the bandit flying and roared again.

At this moment, all the bandits were silent as cicadas in winter, not daring to speak anymore.

Shi Jingshan’s chest heaved violently, and suddenly, he showed a look of pain, his head spun, and he spat out a mouthful of fresh blood.

”My nine aperture spirit dragon bone...!”

Shi Jingshan cried out in unwilling sorrow, actually fainting from anger.

Perhaps in the future, he would suddenly wake up from dreams, remembering that the nine aperture spirit dragon bone had clearly fallen into his hands.

But in the end, it was still snatched away by someone else; how could he be reconciled?

...And Wang Teng, having obtained the nine aperture spirit dragon bone, had already returned to his small courtyard.

”Young Master! What makes you so happy?”

Xing’er blinked her big, bright eyes and asked curiously.

”I picked up a treasure today, so I won’t be eating lunch!”

As Wang Teng finished speaking, he directly returned to his room and took out the nine aperture spirit dragon bone...
