Chapter 165: Sky-Splitting Sword
"Six hundred pounds!" Even though Brother Shilong thought he was born with supernatural power, he took a deep breath after hearing that, and then shook his head repeatedly, saying, "I can't use it, I can't use it. And such a heavy thing is a big burden to carry around. Unless you are crazy, you will buy this knife!"
When Qin Ziling heard the shop owner say that the knife weighed six hundred pounds, he was secretly delighted. He thought to himself, now that he has mastered the art of iron, he has immense strength. If he adds the bonus of this big knife and the unknown pattern on his chest, once he explodes, a single blow from the knife will surely shatter both the man and the horse, with blood streaming down their cheeks!
As a result, the two idiots from the Shi family actually said that only a person with water in his brain would buy this big knife. Qin Ziling almost wanted to kick these two idiots away when he heard it.
In the end, Qin Ziling just glared at the two fools and said, "Go and get me that knife!"
When the Shi brothers heard this, they exclaimed "Ah!" and cold sweat broke out on their foreheads.
"What? Why don't you go get it!" Yun Xiwu slapped his two silly sons on the back of the head.
"Yes, yes!" The Shi brothers nodded quickly, and then the two of them worked together to lift the big knife out.
Of course, the Shi brothers are strong martial artists, and they can still lift a 600-jin sword by themselves, but it requires strength.
"Mr. Qin." The Shi brothers raised the big knife in front of Qin Ziling, and then looked at him with confusion.
Qin Ziling did not pick up the sword immediately, but gently touched the sword with his hand.
The shape of this broadsword looks a bit like the Tang Dynasty Mo Dao recorded in another world. It is divided into a blade and a handle, and can be split into two parts. The blade part also has a short handle and can be used alone, but if the long handle is attached, it is about one person tall, the blade is four fingers wide, and the length is only slightly shorter than the long handle.
The blade is double-edged, thick in the middle and sharp at the tip.
When his fingertips touched the blade, Qin Ziling felt a bone-chilling coldness and an indescribable heaviness, which was not the feeling of ordinary steel.
"What material is this made of?" Qin Ziling asked as he grasped the handle and lifted the sword with one hand.
The big knife in his hand felt great and the weight was just right. Qin Ziling almost couldn't help but want to dance with the knife a few times to let the seller and the two idiots from the Shi family see what it was like to know who couldn't use this knife and who had lost his mind!
However, the thought of showing off only flashed through his mind.
Being low-key is the right path, and the one I just showed off is enough!
But even so, except for Xiao Qing who looked normal, the others were still shocked when they saw Qin Ziling actually picked up the big knife with one hand.
"You are so powerful, hero. I don't even know what material this knife is made of. You were already here when I took over the store. Some people said it was made of meteorite iron from outer space." The store owner was surprised and replied with admiration.
"Really?" Qin Ziling asked back, picked up a battle axe from the weapon rack, and chopped down at the blade.
"Bang!" There was a loud noise and sparks flew everywhere.
There was no crack on the black and cold blade, but there was a crack on the battle axe blade.
Qin Ziling was overjoyed when he saw this.
This knife weighs six hundred pounds and is made of extremely hard material. If it were to chop it down with one blow, not to mention a person, even a small mountain would be split in half!
"How much is this knife?" Qin Ziling asked.
"If you want to, just give me three hundred taels of silver," said the shop owner.
"Okay, Xia Yan, please pay the bill for me." Qin Ziling said straightforwardly.
Small money!
…
drive!
Two clouded leopard horses were pulling a luxurious carriage along the official road leading to Qinghe County.
Inside the carriage, there was a knife box in front of Qin Ziling's feet.
The more than two-meter-long sword I bought before was split into two parts and placed in this knife box.
When disassembling the knife, Qin Ziling found two powerful small characters engraved on the handle.
Split the sky!
The characters are small, and the blade is black, so if you don't look carefully, you may overlook it.
Inside the car, Xia Yan and Yun Xiwu would occasionally glance at Qin Ziling and the knife box under his feet with strange eyes.
They originally thought that Qin Ziling was just curious and casually asked about this unusually heavy long sword, but they didn't expect that he actually bought it.
In fact, not to mention Xia Yan and Xi Yunwu, even Xiao Qing was a little surprised and curious.
She had fought with Qin Ziling before and knew that in terms of pure Qi and blood, he was not inferior to a Hua Jin martial artist.
But the sword weighs six hundred pounds after all, and being able to hold it with one hand and wield it are two completely different things.
Even if Xiao Qing wanted to use this knife to perform sword skills, he would have to circulate his strength, which consumed a huge amount of energy, not to mention the problem of carrying it.
"Brother, this knife is too tiring to wield, and it's hard to carry..." Xiao Qing pointed at the knife box in front of Qin Ziling's feet.
"The material of this knife is extremely hard, heavy and rare. It's only three hundred taels of silver anyway, so buy it first, maybe it will be useful in the future." Qin Ziling said with a smile.
"So, big brother wanted to keep it first." Xiao Qing said with relief.
Xia Yan and Yun Xiwu's gazes towards Qin Ziling returned to normal.
Before the sun actually set behind Wuyang Mountain, Qin Ziling and his party arrived at the county seat of Qinghe County.
Qinghe County is indeed the largest county under the capital of Xiyun Prefecture.
Although the outer city area is still somewhat dilapidated, with ragged people and beggars often seen on the streets, it is still much better than Fangqiao City.
As for the inner city.
Comparing the inner city of Fangliao with the inner city of Qinghe County is like the difference between a small county town and a big city.
The inner city of Qinghe County is very prosperous and bustling, with shops lining both sides of the street, shops selling clothes, hats, fans and tents, bonsai and flowers, cakes and candied fruits, restaurants, dance halls, gambling houses... everywhere.
Red lights were lit high in the brothel, and wisps of faint fragrance and erotic music wafted from inside to the street.
On the river, cruise ships and pleasure boats are floating slowly.
The market is filled with pearls and jade, and every household is filled with silk and satin, competing in luxury.
Thousands of lights in the night market illuminate the green clouds, and guests with red sleeves flock to the tall buildings.
The carriage slowly drove through the bustling and lively streets of the inner city, making people completely forget that it was already early winter.
"Qinghe County is really bustling and prosperous!" Xia Yan rolled up a corner of the car curtain, looked outside, and couldn't help but sigh.
"Xiao Qing, have you ever been to this inner city before?" Qin Ziling frowned slightly, with a solemn look in his eyes.
"I've come here twice with grandpa. What's wrong, brother?" Xiao Qing looked at Qin Ziling with a hint of doubt in her eyes.
"There are too many strong people. Are martial artists and qi masters so worthless in Qinghe County that they can be found everywhere?" Qin Ziling frowned.
"Of course not! Although there are many more powerful people in Qinghe County than in Fangliao County, martial artists and Qi masters are also considered powerful here. It is impossible for them to be seen everywhere!" Xiao Qing replied, but as soon as she finished speaking, she looked out the car window and seemed to have noticed something, and her face changed slightly.
"There are indeed quite a lot of them! And judging from their clothes, words and behaviors, they seem to be outsiders just like us."
"Miss, look, Pang Tianpeng and the others are here too!" Xia Yan suddenly pointed to a restaurant not far away.
Pang Tianpeng and his group were standing at the door of the restaurant, preparing to go in.
"Don't look at them!" Qin Ziling reminded quickly after hearing this.
But it's too late.
People who have reached Pang Tianpeng's level of cultivation have become quite sensitive to changes in the external energy.
Pang Tianpeng immediately realized that someone was staring at him. He turned his head abruptly, and his gaze passed over the crowd and fell on the carriage.
It was already getting dark, but Qin Ziling could still feel that his gaze was exceptionally sharp, like a ray of cold light piercing through the darkness.
"This boy is really not simple!" Qin Ziling exclaimed in his heart.
"Pang Tianpeng noticed us!" Xiao Qing's expression changed slightly.
"Miss, should we leave here immediately?" Yun Xiwu's face changed slightly, and he asked.
After the Pang family drove the Yu family out of Fangqiao City, the biggest rivals in the city became the Xiao family and the Lu family.
But Fangqiao City had just experienced a gunfight and could not withstand another major turmoil. Moreover, the Yu family, together with Zhoujiazhuang and external forces, were still entrenched in Gaitong County, eyeing it covetously.
Therefore, even though the Pang family wanted to uproot the Xiao family and the Lu family, they could only suppress them in Fangqiao City and slowly wear down their strength, and would not make any big moves for the time being.
But this is Qinghe County!
Once Pang Tianpeng targets them, it is hard to say that he will not find an opportunity to kill them and weaken part of the Xiao family's power.
"No need!" It was not Xiao Qing but Qin Ziling who answered Yun Xiwu.
“Mr. Qin, Pang Tianpeng has the strengths of two families, and his arms are iron-clad. Now he has broken through to the bone refining realm. His strength is extremely terrifying. Even Miss…” Yun Xiwu was shocked when he heard this and hurriedly persuaded.
Although Qin Ziling has shown some strength in Zhanjian Town, for Yun Xiwu, he is still no match for the Bone Refining Master.
After all, the Bone Refining Master is the most powerful person in Fangqiao City, and he is also a first-class expert even in Qinghe County.
Besides, Pang Tianpeng is not just an ordinary bone-refining martial artist.
"It's too late to avoid it now!" Xiao Qing interrupted Yun Xiwu with a wave of his hand before he could finish speaking.
Yun Xiwu looked at Xiao Qing and Qin Ziling, moved his lips, but finally closed his mouth and stopped persuading them.
In the inner city of Qinghe County, Pang Tianpeng still didn't dare to kill people openly!
"What's wrong with Senior Brother Pang?" asked Sui Wufang who was standing next to Pang Tianpeng.
Sui Wufang is an extremely thin man with prominent cheekbones, deep eye sockets and thin lips, giving off a cold and fierce feeling.
" People from the Xiao family are here too!" Pang Tianpeng replied.
"No way, the Xiao family dares to join in the fun. Are they going to risk everything or make a last-ditch effort?" Qin Gen on the side said with surprise and sarcasm on his face.
Qin Gen is the exact opposite of Sui Wufang, with a full beard and an exceptionally fierce look.
"How is it possible! The four Hua Jin martial artists of the Xiao family are just ordinary Hua Jin martial artists who have passed their peak period. Moreover, they hold high positions and are used to a life of luxury. Unless someone wants to destroy the Xiao family, why would they be willing to take risks? Not to mention entering Panchi Mountain!" Sui Wufang said with disdain.
" That's right. If the Xiao family's Huajin martial artist really wants to enter Panchi Mountain, he will get nothing but cannon fodder. Xiao Wenchen is a cunning man who cherishes his life. How could he not see this clearly?
In fact, except for those of us who are powerful and have trump cards, the other martial artists and Qi-refining masters who dare to enter Panchi Mountain this time are all bold people who have no background and want to try their luck and ascend to heaven in one step. "Pang Tianpeng nodded.
"Hehe, since Senior Brother Pang and Junior Brother Sui have determined that the Xiao family is not coming for Panchi Mountain, why don't we find an opportunity to kill them?" Qin Gen, who seemed particularly powerful and rough, revealed a sinister look in his eyes.
"Our goal this time is to transform into a Chi, so let's not create any more trouble for now." Pang Tianpeng said calmly.
After that, Pang Tianpeng casually pointed at a Blood Wolf Guard and said, "Wolf Eleven, keep an eye on them."
"Yes, young master!" The Blood Wolf Guard known as Wolf Eleven bowed slightly to receive the order, and then quickly disappeared into the crowd.
Qin Gen watched Lang Shiyi disappear in the crowd, then retracted his gaze and frowned, saying, "There are quite a lot of strong men coming this time. Why hasn't Senior Brother Mao come yet?"
"Don't worry about this. Senior Brother Mao will definitely not dare to miss such an important matter." Pang Tianpeng said.
As they were talking, Pang Tianpeng and others entered the restaurant.
