C773 A Peerless Divine Art
After leaving the Dark Abyss, Lee Zhuohua planned to take a look around the Ownerless Land. He felt that Demon Lord wouldn't leave this realm for the time being.
He had arrived at the heart of the Ownerless Land, the Gathering Fang City. This city was the center of the Ownerless Land, but it did not belong to any force, because it was at the intersection of the three peak forces, a place of freedom.
However, there were also City Lords and other administrators in this city. To be more exact, because the Gathering Fang City was located in the territory of the three peak powers, his authority to manage it changed every hundred years. Right now, the ones managing the Gathering Fang City were the people from the Moonlight Sect.
As soon as Lee Zhuohua arrived, he felt that the atmosphere here was different from other places. There was a feeling of no rule binding. He could see all kinds of people on the street, but most of them were cultivators.
Lee Zhuohua walked along the road as he pondered, thinking that since this was the center of Ownerless Land, then it should be the most well-informed place. Perhaps he could find traces of Demon Lord here.
"Brother, I can see that your bones are exquisite and that you are a fine piece of jade. I have a peerless martial art here that is fated to be with you. If you learn it, you will definitely become a legend." Lee Zhuohua, who was walking on the road, was stopped by an old man who suddenly came out of the corner and said some strange words.
The old man's robes were tattered and his hair was matted and tangled. It was clear that he hadn't bathed for many days, but his eyes weren't muddy like those of a man in his old age, they shone with a cunning light.
Lee Zhuohua was a little speechless when he was stopped by such a person. He looked at the old man curiously, but did not sense any cultivator aura from him.
There were only two reasons why he could not feel any aura. One was that this person did not have any cultivation, and the other was that this person's cultivation far exceeded Lee Zhuohua's.
However, Lee Zhuohua was someone who was cultivating again. No matter how high the other party's cultivation base was, he could still sense it. It was obvious that this old man was an ordinary person.
But why would an ordinary person stop him from giving him the cultivation technique? It seemed like he was a first-rate swindler in the martial arts world. Looking at the old man's fluent movements and smooth speech, who knew how many young men had been swindled by him before.
"Oh? What kind of cultivation technique is it? Could you let me take a look? "Lee Zhuohua raised his eyebrows slightly and said with a smile.
When the old man heard Lee Zhuohua's words, he felt that the other party had taken the bait. A hint of a proud smile flashed across his face.
After that, he took out a tattered book from his bosom. It was made of thread, and the book cover was black, which was very simple and crude.
"Look, this is the peerless martial art. As long as you cultivate this martial art, you will be able to dominate the world in the future." The old man handed the book in his hand to Lee Zhuohua and said mysteriously.
...""
After the old man took out the Secret Book, the air seemed to freeze.
Lee Zhuohua looked at the book in his hand in a daze, and then looked at him with a strange expression, not saying a word.
It was just as the old man had said, there were three words written on the tattered book. The moment Lee Zhuohua saw these four words, he was sure that the other party was a scammer without a doubt. If there was such a name for that cultivation technique, it would only fool those hot-blooded youths.
When the old man saw the change in Lee Zhuohua's expression, he seemed to realize that something was wrong.
"Cough, cough ...Kid, I think you and I are fated to meet. How about I sell this peerless divine technique to you?" The old man coughed twice to ease the awkwardness.
Lee Zhuohua was almost speechless by the other party's words. It seemed that the other party also knew that the name of his Secret Book was a little strange.
"But I don't have any money." Lee Zhuohua shook his head and said. He planned to get rid of this person as soon as possible.
"No money?" The old man frowned when he heard this. In this situation, he really did not think about it: "Don't think I'm a liar. I saw that you were fated to sell this Secret Book of yours, ten taels of silver is not expensive."
The old man thought that the other party was not satisfied with his recommendation, so he pulled open his clothes. In an instant, several Secret Books that were similar to this peerless technique appeared on both sides of his clothes.
"Why don't you take a look again? I still have the Number One Saber in the world, the Supreme Dao Technique, the Invincible Great Technique... Tell me which one you like. Ten taels of silver for one isn't expensive at all." The old man looked at Lee Zhuohua and spoke very quickly, so much so that his saliva was about to reach Lee Zhuohua's face.
"What the hell?" Lee Zhuohua looked at the Secret Books with extremely domineering names in the old man's clothes, and his eyelids twitched. He sighed in his heart how could he bump into this old swindler?
"Do you want to dominate the world? Do you want the strength to be invincible in the world? Do you want to leave behind a glorious legend that belongs to you? Then don't hesitate. If you miss this day, you'll definitely regret it for the rest of your life." The old man approached Lee Zhuohua and said seductively.
If these words were said to some hotblooded youth, it would definitely provoke their impulsiveness, but Lee Zhuohua was not the kind of young man who had never seen the world, so naturally he would not believe his words.
The old man saw that Lee Zhuohua was still unmoved even after he tried his best to persuade him. He became anxious and pulled Lee Zhuohua to continue persuading him.
"Let me tell you..."
"That old swindler is over there! He's the one who tricked me into spending 10 taels of silver to buy a copy of the Heaven Overbearing Divine Technique, but in the end, it's a recipe. I'm so angry! Catch him! Don't let him get away!"
When the old man started speaking, a group of people jumped out from the side and pointed at the old man while cursing him and rushing over.
"Me? Eh?" When the old man saw these people, his expression immediately froze, and then he stuffed the peerless divine technique in his hand into Lee Zhuohua's hands.
"Kid, I still have urgent matters to attend to. I'll give this Secret Book to you first. Next time, remember to give me the money. I'll be leaving first." The old man quickly finished speaking, and then fled in another direction as if he was flying.
"Don't let him escape. Quickly chase after him." When the people who had been tricked by the old man into buying a menu saw that the old man had run away, they hurriedly chased after him. As for Lee Zhuohua, they did not care about him.
"Pfft..." Looking at this dramatic scene, Lee Zhuohua could no longer control himself and laughed out loud.
"He is really an interesting old fraud." Lee Zhuohua looked in the direction where the group of people had left and shook his head. Then, he lowered his head and looked at the peerless divine technique that the old man had given him.
He thought that it should be some kind of recipe. Lee Zhuohua opened the peerless divine skill with a smile.
"Hmm?" After Lee Zhuohua saw the contents of the book, his smile immediately disappeared.
Because he found that it was not a recipe, but really a Secret Book, and the opening chapter allowed Lee Zhuohua to see some of the tricks.
It seemed that this Secret Book was not simple.
But...
Lee Zhuohua closed the Secret Book in his hand and looked in the direction where the old man had fled in confusion, but he did not find anything.
