Nine Revolutions Star Transformation

Chapter 420: Chapter 433: Fire Dragon Sword

Seeing Xiaohong dead before her, the Tianxiang Pavilion Master wore a helpless expression on her face. From Xiaohong’s eyes, which couldn’t close in peace, it was clear the unwillingness and questions in her heart.

Why would the Pavilion Master she revered strike her so mercilessly? What did she do wrong? She would never understand, and never will.

”You can’t blame me. If you want to blame someone, blame your bad luck for being able to draw his portrait. Although he’s an enemy of my Celestial Fragrance Pavilion, he’s also the man who has my body. For his sake, you must die!” said the Tianxiang Pavilion Master.

Subsequently, she took out a black bottle from the Storage Ring and poured some black powder substance over Xiaohong’s body, causing it to vanish without a trace within a few breaths, attesting to the potency of this powder, truly a good poison for destroying bodies and erasing traces.

”Dear enemy, the task you entrusted to me has now been completed. I wonder if you can escape this calamity, hoping we have the day to meet again.” said the Tianxiang Pavilion Master.

At this moment, Chu Linfeng naturally knew nothing of what the Tianxiang Pavilion Master was doing for him. He was marveling at the skill of the person who painted his portrait, capturing his likeness so vividly. Thankfully, he was disguised at the moment; otherwise, it would have been troublesome.

This also highlighted an issue; this town was still within the jurisdiction of the Celestial Fragrance Pavilion, and this Canglan Ancient Land was indeed terrifyingly vast.

Chu Linfeng stood outside the city gates for a long time, entering the city only when it was bright. Naturally, he couldn’t avoid an interrogation, especially since he was about the age of the wanted person. After several comparisons, it was confirmed he wasn’t the wanted person.

Not being a fool, Chu Linfeng immediately took out a Top-grade Star Stone and gave it to the gate guard, smoothly entering the city.

His purpose for entering the city was to investigate the surrounding strength range while also seeing if he could find a method to return directly to the Green Frost Sect.

Teahouses and restaurants were the places where news was most informed, a fact Chu Linfeng had long realized. Glancing at the street vendors similarly displaying various ordinary items, Chu Linfeng could only smile to himself, ”It’s the same everywhere in the world. As long as there’s a town, there’ll be these vendors.”

Before long, more pedestrians began appearing on the street. Observing briefly, Chu Linfeng noticed many people had reached the level of the Celestial Martial Realm, with a few even reaching the level of Divine Martial Realm.

Chu Linfeng walked slowly down the street. It was still early, and there likely weren’t many people in the teahouses and restaurants, so he decided to wait until noon to go. Meanwhile, he perused the wares of the street vendors to pass the time.

Soon he noticed a large crowd gathering around a vendor’s stall not far away, suggesting the vendor’s items must be intriguing to draw such attention.

Slowly pushing his way through the crowd, Chu Linfeng took a look at what the vendor was selling: a completely black long sword, a red stone the size of an egg, and a few aromatic herbs.

These items seemed hardly remarkable, leaving Chu Linfeng wondering why people were gathering, finding it a little strange.

Seeing the increasing number of onlookers, the vendor said, ”I told you all yesterday that I would bring something very precious today, and now you see it.”

”What exactly is this treasure you speak of? This sword looks utterly black, probably no more than an Upper Grade Spiritual Artifact, and the bead, being so fiery red, seems to be a stone containing the Fire Element, all quite ordinary,” a person commented.

”Haha! Since we’re on this topic, I might as well tell you: this sword is not just any sword. With an infusion of Star Power, the blade will turn red, a true Fire Element Sword.

As for this stone, it’s a Fire Dragon Stone, something you may not know. These are items from the Divine Dragon Hall. I can’t tell you how I obtained it,” said the vendor.

Chu Linfeng took a good look at the vendor, noticing that although he appeared to be over forty, he had a countenance that suggested he had experienced countless hardships, and his strength seemed to be at least the Fifth Level of the Divine Martial Realm.

It was truly strange for someone like this to be a street vendor in a small town. Could he be waiting for someone or preparing to do something? Chu Linfeng wondered.

”You claim your sword is so good, show us if it’s true. If it’s truly a Fire Element Sword, I’ll buy it,” said a middle-aged man, whose attire suggested he was well-off.

The crowd also chatted among themselves, hoping for a demonstration, even Chu Linfeng wanted to see if what he said was true, though he was more curious about how the vendor obtained the Fire Dragon Stone.

The Divine Dragon Hall is arguably the most mysterious place in the entire Canglan Ancient Land. Few know how to enter it. For Chu Linfeng, it’s a must-visit, and discovering any clue would be a delight.

The vendor, seeing the expectant gazes of the crowd, smiled and said, ”I’ll show you all, hoping you won’t be disappointed.”

He then picked up the long sword from the ground and quickly swung it, causing the black sword to gradually turn red, with flames leaping on it.

Chu Linfeng immediately recognized the flame as Flame Fire, extremely hot, instantly raising the surrounding temperature significantly,

Yet he also noticed the vendor’s forehead was dotted with fine beads of sweat, indicating a significant consumption of Star Power, a notable feat even for someone at the Fifth Level of Divine Martial Realm. This meant that for the onlookers, making the sword turn red would be difficult.

The vendor then stopped waving the sword and said, ”This sword is called the Red Dragon Sword. I can’t share its origins, but I must remind everyone that making this sword glow red requires powerful Star Power. Without Divine Martial Realm strength, it’s impossible.

This means I only sell this sword to those above the Divine Martial Realm. If you don’t have that strength, please give up your intention to buy.”

Most people felt disappointed upon hearing this. This was a genuine Fire Element Sword, and the flames on the blade were so intense; obtaining it could increase one’s strength by at least ten percent.

Still, the vendor’s condition for purchase left everyone unsatisfied, understanding that with the vendor’s ability to produce flames on the sword, his strength was naturally high, making forceful purchase impossible.

At this moment, a voice from the crowd said, ”I am at the Divine Martial Realm, I want to buy your Fire Dragon Sword!”

Immediately, the person stepped up to the vendor, who replied, ”You can buy this sword, but show the hero’s Star Power capability to make the sword catch fire. If achieved, the sword is yours; if not, wait for the next.”

The person glanced at the black long sword in the vendor’s hand and said, ”Let me give it a try, hand me the sword...”
