The next day, he arrived at the Sword Transmission Pavilion early in the morning.
He had wanted to find Wen Yulong earlier, but he hadn’t been here for the past two days, and only had time today.
The reason he hadn’t come was because he was busy with the Green Leaf artifact.
This all-around artifact, forged bit by bit by Wen Yulong, had a lot of his effort poured into it. Now, every repair was even more meticulous.
Chu Liang had made a small fortune before and told him not to worry about the price, just use the best materials.
This made him indecisive.
Today, he called Chu Liang over, probably because he had finally completed the task.
“Brother Chu.” As soon as he saw Chu Liang, Wen Yulong immediately showed a proud smile.
He looked like a golden retriever waiting for praise.
Seeing this little genius smile like this, Chu Liang’s eyebrows twitched twice… wondering what surprise was waiting for him.
“At first, I thought the reason for the damage was your improper use of the artifact.” Wen Yulong said, “But then I thought about it, it’s not your problem, it’s mine.”
Wen Yulong placed the Green Leaf, which had doubled in size, on the table.
“The reason you used the defensive array on the artifact as a control is because you lack effective control methods. If you had them, you wouldn’t need to use it this way.”
Hearing him say this, Chu Liang nodded.
That’s true.
The Demon Binding Rope is useful, but once faced with a master, its strength can’t keep up. As his cultivation level gets higher and higher in the future, it will inevitably be phased out.
Apart from that, he lacks effective control methods.
“So I tried many materials and methods, and finally added a very powerful control array to the Green Leaf artifact.” Wen Yulong pointed to the dummy in the corner, “Because the power is too great, you can try it on that.”
Too powerful?
Chu Liang was puzzled. Since it was a control array, what damage could it cause?
Thinking this, he carefully picked up the Green Leaf artifact, injected a trace of true qi, and tried to activate the newly added array.
Whoosh—
As soon as the true qi moved, the artifact immediately turned into a green light and flew out, long and graceful, and in an instant, it turned into a large green snake!
“Hiss!”
With a snap of its fangs, the huge snake’s mouth immediately bit the dummy’s head!
Clang!
The copper dummy’s neck was instantly bitten off, and even Chu Liang felt a chill on his own neck.
What a powerful guillotine.
The opponent’s head had already fallen off, and the green snake was still biting in the air, motionless. It wasn’t until Chu Liang moved his mind to call it back that it turned back into a green light and fell back into his palm.
“You call this control?” Chu Liang looked at Wen Yulong strangely.
This was much more lethal than the previous attack array.
“Of course.” Wen Yulong said, “This control is very strong. I thought for a long time, the most easily controlled, most important and most vulnerable part of the human body is the neck. So I integrated the Green Cloud Rope and the Xihuang Soul, and made this array specifically for locking people’s necks. The biting force is huge! Once it bites down, ordinary people can’t move at all!”
That’s true.
Chu Liang looked at the beheaded dummy.
With such a bite, anyone would find it hard to move.
The best control is to turn the opponent into a corpse, right?
After trying a few times, no matter what material the dummy was made of, this guillotine could bite it off in one bite, leaving no room for negotiation.
Chu Liang nodded, “Not bad, it’s very deadly control.”
“Hehe.” Wen Yulong laughed, then said, “There’s also the defensive array. Because it was damaged too many times, it couldn’t be fully repaired, so I simply broke it and made a new one.”
So that’s why it took so long to repair this time, and there were quite a few changes.
Thinking about this, Chu Liang activated the defensive array.
Whoosh—
With a flash of light, it didn’t wrap him up like a dumpling, but a large green umbrella appeared in his hand.
“You mentioned before that the previous form couldn’t move, and I thought about it, and it makes sense. If you’re always wrapped up and attacked, no matter how strong your defense is, you’ll eventually be pierced.” Wen Yulong said, “So I painfully gave up the all-around defense and concentrated all the power on one side, making it into this umbrella shape.”
“This is indeed great.” Chu Liang sincerely praised.
The previous dumpling shape was simply against the heavens, and now it’s finally made into a normal defense shape. Holding this green umbrella can not only defend, but also move more flexibly.
“In order not to be hit, I also combined this defensive array with the flying array, you can try to activate them together.” Wen Yulong said.
“Huh?”
Chu Liang, with a hint of doubt, activated the flying array together.
Whoosh whoosh whoosh—
The umbrella surface suddenly started spinning violently, creating a strong wind. He tried to move his feet slightly, and boom—
He instantly moved several feet away and hit the wall of the quiet room with a loud noise.
It turns out that when holding this umbrella, wind-riding flight can get a tenfold boost. As long as this umbrella is opened, the full-speed flight is not slower than sword riding!
“This is also a recent idea of mine, that intense rotation can drive true qi to assist in flight.” Wen Yulong said, “This way, your dodging speed will greatly increase, and the defensive effect will naturally increase.”
Well.
The best control is to kill, the best defense is to dodge.
Wen Yulong’s design concept has undergone a great enlightenment.
“Not bad, not bad.” Chu Liang put away the Green Leaf artifact and asked, “Is there anything else?”
“No more.” Wen Yulong said.
“Huh…” Chu Liang finally breathed a sigh of relief.
The overall update this time, although unexpected, was an optimization, a more excellent version.
The two sat down again.
The repair this time cost over a thousand sword coins, mainly because some of the materials were quite expensive. Wen Yulong, worried that Chu Liang would find it too expensive and not want such good materials, didn’t dare to ask for labor costs this time.
Therefore, the added array patterns could clearly feel stronger than before. Even if his technique was good, the fact that you get what you pay for couldn’t be changed.
In fact, when Chu Liang had money on hand, he was not stingy to enhance his combat power.
After paying, Chu Liang took out the things he had confiscated from the dual-blade guest, “Junior Brother Wen, take a look, how are these things?”
“Oh? New gains?” Wen Yulong immediately perked up.
He first picked up the black dual-blades, examined them carefully, and said, “Very good, these are long blades forged from black meteorite iron, the same material as the previous dagger, but more complete and using more material. Even if sold as materials, they are worth a lot of money.”
Looking at the Soul Suppressing Banner, he directly said, “This is an extremely vicious magic weapon, the Soul Suppressing Banner. It can gather and refine the residual souls of the nearby dead, completely eliminating them.”
Chu Liang thought of the dual-blade guest who had tried to assassinate him several times, and actually took out such a thing, his methods were really ruthless. But he still didn’t know where he came from, didn’t know how many people were behind him, and felt a chill down his spine at the thought.
It seems that he must be careful during this period and can’t go down the mountain again.
“Then you can submit these two things to the Sword Pavilion for me.” Chu Liang said, “See how much reward you can get.”
“Okay.” Wen Yulong was familiar with this kind of work, and immediately put away these things.
Just as Chu Liang was about to leave, he heard footsteps outside the door, and the door was slammed open.
The visitor turned out to be Lin Bei.
“I finally found you.” He said in a hurry, “Chu Liang, you better go back and check, your golden-haired beast has been beaten!”
Good morning.
The author’s assistant just sent a message, found out that today is the second anniversary, the previous book was started on July 10, 20 years ago. Ah, time flies so fast.
