Chapter 402: Heaven-Grade Spiritual Weapon "Heavenbreaker" — Descent of the Heavenly Dao Gold Rankings
After Shen Mo left, Sheng Xing lowered his voice. "Dad, I thought you had run into some genius Demon Suppression Guard—but it was him."
The shopkeeper was startled. "You know him?"
Sheng Xing nodded. "I've heard of him. There's been a lot of talk in the camp these past few days."
"What happened? Is he no good?"
Sheng Xing whispered, "Not exactly that. I just know all sixteen centurions have been pushing him away—none of them wanted him under their command."
"Because of Shi Dingyue's situation, they've all become a bit paranoid, worried that this guy might turn out like him."
The shopkeeper nodded. "I see... Then didn't I take a loss? I gave him a forty percent discount!"
"I even thought you should treat him warmly. Who knows, we might need his help in the future."
Sheng Xing consoled him. "It's nothing—just a few D-rank merit points. If it goes to waste, it goes to waste."
"There was a minor demon siege just yesterday. I'll ask the other Demon Suppression Guards about his performance on the battlefield—we'll know soon enough."

The shopkeeper nodded repeatedly. "Good, go ask."
Sheng Xing returned to the Demon Suppression Fortress and found his comrades.
"Why are you asking about him?" a Demon Suppression Guard nearby looked curious.
Sheng Xing laughed it off. "Just curious. People say Shen Mo is already at the Venerable Realm and that his strength has already solidified, but he hasn't said how many layers of Blood Crown he's condensed."
The nearby Demon Suppression Guard gave a mysterious smile. "I don't know how many layers of Blood Crown he has, but I know very well what his record was during that demon siege a few days ago."
Sheng Xing quickly asked, "How was it?"
That Demon Suppression Guard said solemnly, "He didn't rely on anyone. He single-handedly killed a True Demon Venerable."
"Also, Centurion Ning Tianying personally confirmed that the True Demon Venerable was a descendant of a Grand Sky Demon, with a very powerful bloodline secret technique."
Sheng Xing was shocked. "What? That's impossible!"
The other guard shrugged. "Why would I lie to you? It's true."
"Quite a few Demon Suppression Guards witnessed the scene. The news spread long ago—you just didn't hear it."
Sheng Xing's expression looked like he'd seen a ghost.
"What is it?" the Demon Suppression Guard asked curiously.
Sheng Xing swallowed hard. "Nothing... good thing I didn't show any disdain in my expression..."
He felt immensely relieved.
Fortunately, he never let his emotions show on his face.
Otherwise, he might have offended Shen Mo.
And that would definitely not end well for him.
'Looks like I need to find a way to build a good relationship with him,' Sheng Xing began plotting internally. 'No—this kind of connection needs to be made early. I'll go now!'
Sheng Xing went straight to Shi Dingyue's tent and found Shen Mo.
Shen Mo was a little surprised.
Didn't they just finish their transaction?
Why had he come again?
Sheng Xing chuckled. "Hello, hello. My father made a mistake—turns out that item's original price wasn't ten D-rank merit points, but only seven."
"So, he asked me to return two D-rank merit points to you."
Before Shen Mo could even refuse, he brought his Demon Suppression Bracelet over and transferred two D-rank merit points on the spot.
Not only was Shen Mo surprised,
even Li Heitan, Zhao Xin, and the others were completely dumbfounded.
"Isn't that Sheng Xing, a squad leader under Centurion Xiong Yuanshan? Why did he come over to give Brother Shen merit points?"
"What the heck is going on? Brother Shen, explain!"
Li Heitan and the others were stunned.
Merit points were such a precious thing—how could someone just give them away?
Shen Mo couldn't help but laugh. He more or less guessed that Sheng Xing was trying to curry favor with him.
Looks like he was a clever guy.
"When you all reach Shen Mo's level of strength, plenty of people will come knocking to give you merit points."
"As for now... just go to sleep,"
Shi Dingyue said with a strange chuckle.
The four of them instantly looked dejected.
Back in his own tent, Shen Mo took out the sealed Heaven-grade spiritual weapon.
On the hilt of the sword were two ancient and majestic characters—
Heavenbreaker!
The hilt, blade, and tip of the sword each bore a cluster of strange patterns.
These very patterns were what sealed away the true might of the Heaven-grade spiritual weapon.
Yet even with its true power sealed, the sword still possessed astonishing weight.
Weight heavy enough to surprise even many Demon Suppression Guards.
Shen Mo lifted Heavenbreaker and gave it a light swing.
Just like its name implied, this massive sword possessed a terrifying might capable of splitting the heavens.
Even in its sealed state, it was already comparable to a mid-tier Earth-grade spiritual weapon.
Gripping it in his hand, Shen Mo could faintly sense an indomitable weapon spirit within, hungering for battle against heaven and earth.
"These seem to be talismanic markings."
"Too bad I don't recognize them."
Shen Mo frowned slightly in thought.
He was well-versed in the Dao of Alchemy, but his knowledge of formations and talismans was still a weak point.
Formation techniques were at least accessible—though rare, there were cultivators who knew them.
But talismans were like portable miniature formations, and far more demanding.
They required exceptional perception and, even more critically, a proper lineage of inheritance.
Ever since the destruction of the Spiritual Treasure True Law Sect, talismans across the continent had become increasingly rare.
He wondered what the situation was like here at the Demon Suppression Fortress.
Shi Dingyue and the others had mentioned that the Heavenly Dao Vault allowed one to exchange for any kind of treasure.
There ought to be talismans.
"Maybe... there's even a legacy from the Spiritual Treasure True Law Sect?"
Shen Mo's eyes lit up.
If he could obtain the legacy of the Spiritual Treasure True Law Sect, he might be able to break the three-layer seal on Heavenbreaker.
This Heaven-grade spiritual weapon was clearly one of Lin Dongtian's major opportunities.
Its importance was almost on par with Lin Dongtian's acquisition of the Martial Ancestor Codex of the Eight Desolations back in the day.
"Just have to wait for the Heavenly Dao Vault to descend in a few days."
A smile crept across Shen Mo's face.
...
A few days later.
Under the eager and expectant eyes of countless Demon Suppression Guards, golden light surged across the sky.
What appeared first was not the Heavenly Dao Vault, but three massive radiant golden rankings.
The Heaven Ranking.
The Earth Ranking.
The Human Ranking.
These three colossal lists had been condensed by the will of the Heavenly Dao.
Their purpose was clear: to inspire Demon Suppression Guards to slay demons and earn merit points.
After all, as long as you earned a place on one of the rankings, you would receive merit points automatically every month!
Free merit—safe and consistent. Who wouldn't want that?
"Look, look! The names on the Heaven Ranking are appearing! General Zhang Longxiang from Xuanwu Fortress is on it again—he's moved up a rank, now he's third!"
"Holy crap, seriously? General Zhang is a beast!"
"Heh heh, with someone like General Zhang on our side, we Xuanwu Fortress Guards can really walk with our heads high!"
Next to Shen Mo, Li Heitan and the others were pointing at the Heaven Ranking, yelling excitedly.
Their eyes were full of admiration and reverence.
Shen Mo also turned to look.
Over the past few days, Li Heitan and the others had gone on and on about these three great rankings.
Thanks to them, he already knew how one could earn a place on each list.
Naturally, he was curious now.
Just what kind of people made it onto the Heaven Ranking?
To even qualify for the Heaven Ranking, one's rank had to be at least Demon Suppression General.
At present, only a handful of names appeared on the Heaven Ranking.
Shen Mo focused his gaze.
1st — Blood God Fortress — Demon Suppression Heavenly General — Shi Tian
2nd — Panlong Fortress — Demon Suppression Heavenly General — Ao Guang
3rd — Xuanwu Fortress — Demon Suppression Heavenly General — Zhang Longxiang
4th — Howling Moon Fortress — Demon Suppression Heavenly General — Lang Mang
5th — Tianjiang Fortress — Demon Suppression Earthly General — E Yuan
6th — ...
