Chapter 891 - Exchange the Divine Sword for the Heaven Treasure!

As this news appeared on the Wulin forum, all the people in Wulin were confused.

“What’s going on?”

“It seems that John Doe is quite anxious!”

“It’s not a big deal to ask for the Heaven Treasure, but he even demands the ranking of it. This is too much, isn’t it?”

“That’s right. The Heaven Treasure is such a precious thing. It may not even be seen once in a hundred years. Who can take it out at will?”

“By the way, didn’t John Doe just get a Cyan Dragon Lock on the island? It’s the 10th-ranked Heaven Treasure. Why does he want a Heaven Treasure ranked among the top 20 in such a hurry?”

“He has just left the Sword-hidden Mountain. Now he is hurriedly looking for the Heaven Treasure. Is it about the divine sword?”

On the forum, everyone was talking about it heatedly.

After leaving the Sword-hidden Mountain, Fang Qiu didn’t return to Jiangjing directly.

Although both Tongnan and Jiangjing were in Jiangjing Province, and the distance between the two cities was quite short, it was not the time to go back yet.

After Fang Qiu arrived at the urban area of Tongnan, he found a starred hotel to stay.

In the hotel, to avoid his IP address being found out by others, Fang Qiu directly logged into the Wulin forum with his phone and posted the message about buying the Heaven Treasure ranked among the top 20.

His mobile phone was quite special. Even if someone tried to check it out, they could only find the signal of the satellite and could not find any information about him.

After sending the post, he directly called He Gaoming instead of waiting for the response on the Wulin forum.

“Master.” No sooner had he made the call than it was immediately answered.

“Help me find out where the Heaven Treasure ranked among the top 20 is. The sooner, the better!” said Fang Qiu.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

“Is it urgent?” He Gaoming raised his eyebrows and asked.

Fang Qiu nodded with certainty and said, “Yes, it’s really urgent. I must get it within five days!”

He Gaoming nodded immediately and said, “Okay. Master, don’t worry. I’ll find it out for you.”

“Thank you.” Fang Qiu nodded and hung up the phone.

Then, Fang Qiu dialed another number after pondering for a while.

When the phone was connected, a familiar voice came from the other end of the line, “Senior John Doe, you haven’t contacted me for a long time. I think you must want to ask for something today.”

Without any hesitation, Fang Qiu nodded and said, “Yes. I need a Heaven Treasure ranked among the top 20, so I would like to ask you to help me inquire who has it. The sooner, the better.”

Elder Yi nodded readily. “Okay, I might not have other things, but I do have some connections.”

“Thank you.” Fang Qiu expressed his gratitude.

“If there’s any news, I’ll inform you as soon as possible,” Elder Yi replied with a smile and then hung up the phone.

Fang Qiu then put down his phone.

Only then did he realize that he seemed to have no connection with the high-level figures in Wulin.

As he gave it a second thought, he noticed that he did have poor connections in this field.

At such a critical moment, he didn’t even have good connections to help inquire about the information.

He murmured with a wry smile, “It seems that I have to make friends with people in high places.”

Fang Qiu also called Li Ji, asking him to help inquire about the Heaven Treasure. Then he sat down cross-legged and began to sort out what he had comprehended from the divine sword.

When he fought with the Sword Fanatic in the Sword-hidden Mountain, he had just obtained the divine sword. Although he had been recognized by the divine sword and learned the moves of it, Fang Qiu had never practiced the moves. He was not very familiar with that move and also used it in an emergency. He didn’t fully master the moves at all.

That was to say, the Three-point Shadowless Sword he had used just now did not exert its exact power.

After he mastered it thoroughly, its power would definitely increase considerably!

Now, what Fang Qiu needed to do was to learn these three sword moves properly and fully grasped them!

He closed his eyes, immerse himself in the consciousness space, and began to practice.

Time flew by.

Five hours later, Fang Qiu fully familiarized himself with these three moves and mastered them all.

“What skillful moves they are!” After mastering the moves, Fang Qiu couldn’t help but sigh with emotion. “Although they seem simple, they’re actually complicated and changeable, which is the foundation of countless sword moves. The complicated principles turn into some simple and practical moves. The ancient martial arts really compares favorably with that of the modern times!”

After sighing with emotion, Fang Qiu didn’t waste any more time. He closed his eyes again and carefully observed the set of Combined Attack Sword Formation except for the three moves brought by the divine sword!

The Combined Attack Sword Formation, as its name implied, was a sword formation made by the joint attack of multiple people.

Even if he wanted to master it, he couldn’t learn it by himself. Thus, he could only watch it.

After watching the demonstration, he found that the joint attack of this formation was quite effective.

After all, it was brought by the divine sword. Ordinary sword formations could not be compared with it!

“This sword formation is suitable for He Gaoming and the others.” Fang Qiu thought for a while and added, “However, if they want to exert the actual power of this Combined Attack Sword Formation, they have to use good swords. It’s best to use ancient swords!”

The divine sword itself was an ancient sword.

The Combined Attack Sword Formation was also created based on the ancient sword. If they wanted to exert all the power of this formation, they naturally needed to use ancient swords. Even if they couldn’t find actual ancient swords, they had to use the ancient-style long swords at least.

“But…” Speaking of the ancient sword, Fang Qiu suddenly recalled the strange feeling he had when he obtained the divine sword.

He did not pay much attention to it, considering that numerous unexpected things occurred at that time.

But now, as he thought about it carefully, it felt as if something was enticing and summoning him, and there was more than one thing. It was as dense as the stars all over the sky.

“Sword-hidden Mountain, Sword-hidden Mountain… Are swords hidden in the mountain?”

Fang Qiu suddenly thought of the tens of thousands of long swords that floated in the air above the Sword-hidden Mountain and eventually entered his body.

Since there were so many sword-shaped shadows, maybe there was a similar number of long swords hidden in the mountain.

The more he thought about it, the more likely he thought it would be!

“It seems that I have to find some time to go back and have a look,” Fang Qiu said to himself and nodded.

After sorting out what he had learned in the Sword-hidden Mountain, Fang Qiu was about to have a good rest to restore his energy so that he could continue to suppress the feeling of breakthrough. But his cell phone suddenly rang.

It was He Gaoming.

“Hello?” Fang Qiu picked it up immediately.

“Master, someone responded to the post you sent on the Wulin forum.” He Gaoming’s voice was heard. He said in a hurry, “I’ve taken a look. This person’s account information shows that he is an eighth-class expert. He should be reliable.”

“Okay, I got it.” Fang Qiu nodded, hung up the phone, and immediately logged into the Wulin forum.

He entered his post and soon saw that reply.

As He Gaoming said, the response was from an eighth-class expert’s account.

“I have the treasure. What can you exchange for it?” The man’s response was straightforward.

Before Fang Qiu saw it, this message had already attracted many people’s attention. No one dared to reply or leave a comment. They were merely watching it secretly, waiting for John Doe’s answer.

Without hesitation, Fang Qiu replied immediately after reading the message, “What do you want?”

It instantly attracted everyone’s attention on the Wulin forum.

John Doe replied to the message!

Not only the individuals who loved to watch the scene but also the top-rated, first-rate, and second-rate forces all followed this matter.

After the reply, Fang Qiu began to wait for the man’s response.

Sure enough, less than a minute later, the man replied.

“Cyan Dragon Lock!” These three simple words caused a commotion among people on the forum.

This was no different from daylight robbery!

The Cyan Dragon Lock was the tenth-ranked Heaven Treasure. What was the Heaven Treasure this man had that could be exchanged for the Cyan Dragon Lock?

Just as everyone was in shock, Fang Qiu replied, “I’ve eaten it!”

“Damn it! He actually ate it!” Seeing John Doe’s reply, everyone was rather distressed!

That was the Cyan Dragon Lock, the tenth-ranked Heaven Treasure. John Doe actually ate it!

“You’re so lavish. At least you should keep some for me!”

“Or you may let us see what it looks like!”

Of course, everyone knew that the purpose of taking the Heaven Treasure was to eat it.

But most people thought that the Heaven Treasure refined from heaven and earth should be taken at the most critical moment!

But since he had eaten it, people suddenly understood something.

“It seems that John Doe’s strength has been promoted again.”

“It turned out that he ate the Cyan Dragon Lock. No wonder he could repel the Sword Fanatic with one strike.”

“In other words, the current strength of John Doe is even more powerful than he had when he fought Yun Yangzi!”

In everyone’s heated discussion, the man replied again. “You can exchange the divine sword for it!”

As soon as the reply appeared, Fang Qiu immediately responded, “Aren’t you shameless?”

The netizens watching this on the forum couldn’t help laughing.

“John Doe, although the man is indeed asking for too much, who would have the nerve to ask for the Cyan Dragon Lock and the divine sword if not being shameless? But leaving this remark doesn’t match your status as an expert, does it?”

“I want the sword move that you repelled the Sword Fanatic!” At this time, the man replied again.

Everyone instantly held their breath, focused on the post, and waited nervously to see if John Doe would agree.

After all, that was a sword move of the divine sword. Was John Doe willing to do it?

“Okay!”

The moment John Doe’s reply appeared, all the onlookers were shocked.

“What the f*ck, is he really going to give it away?”

“Is this a good deal? I need to do the math.”

“At least he should tell the ranking of the Heaven Treasure first.”

“The Heaven Treasure is rare, so is the sword move that can repel the Sword Fanatic. John Doe is truly willing to bear the cost!”

Fang Qiu was willing to do it cause it was merely one sword move.

He had something much more powerful than this sword move!

Then, the man suddenly made a reply and directly exposed his true identity.

“I’m the Sword Fanatic, John Doe. I have a Heaven Treasure ranked 17th. If you want it, you and I will compete with each other in sword moves in the Sword-hidden Mountain after three days. If you win, the Heaven Treasure will be yours. If you lose, you will have to give me the divine sword and sword moves! What do you think?”

Everyone was stunned as they saw this reply.

This man was the Sword Fanatic!

No one expected that.

The person who openly talked about business with John Doe on the forum was actually the Sword Fanatic who had been repelled by John Doe with a sword move a few hours ago!

It seemed that the Sword Fanatic was not convinced by John Doe’s strength!

While feeling amazed, everyone was also waiting for John Doe’s answer with expectation.

Fang Qiu also saw the reply in the first place, and he was also quite surprised. He didn’t expect that the person was the Sword Fanatic.

However, he only had 5 days left.

It was extremely arduous to find a Heaven Treasure that was ranked among the top 20 in 5 days.

Not to mention 5 days, it would probably take 5 months or even 5 years before he found it.

Except for getting it from the Sword Fanatic, some top-rated or first-rate forces in Wulin might have the Heaven Treasure that Fang Qiu needed, but Fang Qiu also knew that he might not be able to offer what they wanted.

Besides, the most important thing was that since the Sword Fanatic had made the offer, it was very likely that these major forces would show him some respect and not come out to trade.

Having pondered about it for a while, Fang Qiu thought that he seemed to have no other choice apart from getting the treasure from the Sword Fanatic.

“Beep, beep, beep…” Suddenly, his phone rang.

He Gaoming called him again.

“Hello?” Fang Qiu answered the phone.

Although he hoped that He Gaoming could bring some news about the Heaven Treasure, he knew in his heart that it was almost impossible.

“Master, you can’t agree to do it.” As soon as the phone was connected, He Gaoming’s anxious voice was heard. “The Sword Fanatic is a super expert excelling at swordsmanship. Even if you could repel him with one move, no one knew if he had held back his strength at that time. You can’t agree to fight with him!”
