Demon Dragon Mad God-Chapter 849 - 627: The Nine Heavens Sword Manual

However, among the more than five hundred materials needed to craft the Lifebound Spirit Sword, thirteen are still unavailable even in the transaction hall of the Emperor Xuan Palace.

"Only thirteen materials left!"

Lin Feng breathed a sigh of relief. As long as he gathered all the materials, he was confident he could craft the Lifebound Spirit Sword in the future.

Of course, his Artifact Refining Technique still needed improvement, but these were minor issues and posed no difficulty for Lin Feng.

Subsequently, Lin Feng wandered around the transaction hall to see if there were any treasures worth purchasing.

When he reached the area selling Martial Arts Secret Books, Lin Feng stopped to have a look. He hadn’t learned any new martial techniques in a long time, and the ones he knew were becoming insufficient.

The Silent Annihilation Sword Technique was only a Level Six Low Grade Martial Technique, which was somewhat low-level. Lin Feng, now abundant with Spirit Stones, was planning to purchase a high-level swordsmanship manual.

As for other types of martial techniques, Lin Feng was not interested in cultivating them anymore because it was too time-consuming, and he didn’t have that kind of time to spare.

Even the Black Dragon Dominating Fist gifted to him by Huangfu Qing was left unlearned due to lack of time.

In the shop selling Martial Arts Secret Books, the counter displayed several Jade Scrolls, each accompanied by a card with small characters, briefly introducing the martial arts contained in the respective Jade Scrolls.

Lin Feng focused his attention, scanning over the cards, and sighed inwardly.

He initially thought there would be Emperor Level martial arts for sale; unexpectedly, the highest available were only King Level Upper Grade martial arts.

"Oh?"

At that moment, Lin Feng’s eyes lit up, and his gaze stopped on one particular card.

The card on the farthest Jade Scroll caught Lin Feng’s interest.

"Nine Heavens Sword Manual, Level Seven Low Grade, a sword that breaks the firmament, Sword Qi reaching Nine Heavens, cutting the path to the underworld, dominating eternity!"

The card had few words, but after Lin Feng read it, he became slightly excited to find Emperor Level Cultivation Technique here!

If he mastered an Emperor Level Cultivation Technique, his power would significantly increase.

"Steward, what is the price for this martial art?" Lin Feng asked the steward behind the counter.

The steward was a middle-aged man around forty, with a clean-shaven, kind face.

"One billion and five hundred million Upper Grade Spirit Stones, or one hundred and fifty thousand Top Grade Spirit Stones!" the steward replied.

Lin Feng was momentarily stunned by the words, a gleam of light flickering in his eyes. Was it really so cheap?

Yes, cheap!

Lin Feng had long heard that Emperor Level martial arts were more than a hundred times more expensive than King Level Upper Grade martial arts. Initially, he thought this Emperor Level martial art would cost at least two to three billion Upper Grade Spirit Stones, but it only required one billion and five hundred million!

"Do you think it’s cheap?" the steward asked with a smile, noticing Lin Feng’s expression.

Lin Feng nodded in response. It was indeed surprisingly cheap!

"This Nine Heavens Sword Manual is a remnant, which is why it’s priced this way. Otherwise, it would be stored in the Martial Arts Hall and not sold here!" the middle-aged steward explained.

"Remnant?"

Lin Feng furrowed his brow slightly at these words. He had thought he had stumbled upon a treasure, but it turned out to be a remnant.

"How much of this martial technique is incomplete?" Lin Feng was still somewhat unwilling to let go and asked.

"More than half is missing," the steward said.

"More than half missing and still priced so high?"

Lin Feng was speechless. Even a complete Level Seven Low Grade martial technique would probably cost around two to three billion Upper Grade Spirit Stones, yet despite being more than half missing, it was still priced at one billion and five hundred million. What a rip-off!

"Although more than half of the sword technique is missing, three complete sword moves remain, so the price of one billion and five hundred million Upper Grade Spirit Stones is entirely worth it!" the steward shook his head, saying.

The steward wasn’t misleading Lin Feng. Three Level Seven Low Grade sword moves were indeed worth one billion and five hundred million Upper Grade Spirit Stones.

However, many people were deterred by the high price and the incomplete nature of the sword technique, so they were unwilling to buy it.

This sword technique had been in this place for a month, with many disciples inquiring about it, but none purchasing it.

"Three complete sword moves?" Lin Feng mused, somewhat tempted. Three moves were already considerable, as his Silent Annihilation Sword Technique, although complete, had only four moves.

"I’ll take this sword technique!"

Lin Feng did not hesitate and made the decision decisively. As long as his strength could be improved, what were some spirit stones worth?

Moreover, he was currently very wealthy, and one billion and five hundred million Upper Grade Spirit Stones were of little concern to him.

"Refreshing!"

The middle-aged steward couldn’t help but praise Lin Feng’s decisiveness.

Immediately, the mid-aged steward handed the Jade Scroll to Lin Feng.

Lin Feng quickly examined the content of the Jade Scroll, and after confirming it was correct, he put away the Jade Scroll and paid the other party 150 million Upper Grade Spirit Stones.

Having acquired the Nine Heavens Sword Manual, Lin Feng was very pleased and immediately left the trade hall.

Just as Lin Feng stepped out of the trade hall, a round-faced youth in a yellow robe quickly walked into the trade hall and approached the counter selling Martial Arts Secret Books.

"Steward, I’ve decided, I want the Nine Heavens Sword Manual!" the yellow-robed youth said loudly to the mid-aged steward at the counter.

The mid-aged steward was startled upon hearing this, and then quickly shook his head and said, "I’m sorry, Shangguan Yun, the Nine Heavens Sword Manual has already been sold!"

"What? It has already been sold?"

Shangguan Yun’s expression changed upon hearing this and he hurriedly asked, "Who bought it?"

"Not sure, seems unfamiliar!" The mid-aged steward shook his head.

"When was it sold?" Shangguan Yun asked again.

"Just left!" The steward pointed outside the trade hall.

Swoosh!

As soon as the mid-aged steward finished speaking, Shangguan Yun rushed out as swiftly as a sword.

Outside the trade hall, Shangguan Yun immediately locked eyes on Lin Feng, who was striding away.

"Stop right there!" Shangguan Yun suddenly shouted, his voice resonating in all directions.

Lin Feng, who was about to head to the sect’s library, was startled by the shout and immediately turned around, seeing a yellow-robed youth staring at him.

Lin Feng was puzzled; he didn’t know this person at all, and there was no enmity or grievance between them, so why was this happening?

Many people were startled by Shangguan Yun’s shout, and numerous disciples from the trade hall came out to watch the situation.

"Kid, the Nine Heavens Sword Manual is mine!"

Shangguan Yun strode to Lin Feng’s front, throwing a Storage Ring at Lin Feng, saying, "Inside this is 150 million Upper Grade Spirit Stones, give me the Jade Scroll of the Nine Heavens Sword Manual!"

Shangguan Yun spoke in a commanding tone, not allowing Lin Feng to refuse.

Lin Feng’s expression turned cold, feeling utterly speechless. Damn it, there are always people who can’t see things clearly no matter where he goes.

In the Emperor Xuan Palace, he walked cautiously as if on thin ice, not wanting to make a show, only seeking to quietly improve his strength; yet, someone just had to come looking for trouble.

Clang!

Lin Feng stood still and did not catch Shangguan Yun’s thrown Storage Ring, causing it to fall to the ground with a crisp sound.

"Hmm?"

Seeing this, Shangguan Yun raised his eyebrows, a shadow passing through his eyes.

"Why don’t you take it? Don’t you intend to give me the Nine Heavens Sword Manual?" Shangguan Yun asked coldly.

"Why should I give you what I bought!" Lin Feng sneered and then turned to leave.

"Stop!" Shangguan Yun immediately shouted fiercely, his figure flashing to block Lin Feng’s path.

He was determined to get the Nine Heavens Sword Manual, so how could he let Lin Feng leave!

Shangguan Yun had intended to purchase the Nine Heavens Sword Manual three days ago, but he found it slightly overpriced and thus hesitated.

Today, having resolved to buy it, he didn’t expect it to have already been bought by someone else.

"Don’t you recognize me?" Shangguan Yun stared at Lin Feng with doubt, asking.

Because in the Outer Palace, there were almost no people who did not recognize him, and no one dared to disrespect him, not even those disciples with Half-step Martial King cultivation.

Lin Feng’s expression looked increasingly unpleasant, this guy had the same Cultivation Realm as him, yet was so ignorant of the danger. If it were outside of the sect, he would have eliminated him long ago.

But in Emperor Xuan Palace, Lin Feng had some scruples and did not wish to provoke trouble. He did not expect this person to be so relentless!

"Why should I know you!" Lin Feng responded coldly.

Hearing this, Shangguan Yun sneered, "It seems you have only recently joined the sect. Let me tell you then, that’s because my family name is—Shangguan!"

"Shangguan?"

Lin Feng was initially stunned upon hearing this, then a sharp light flashed in his eyes.

A surname Shangguan, could this person be related to Shangguan Hao?

Is he Shangguan Hao’s brother or perhaps from the same clan as Shangguan Hao?
