"Is that true?"
Zhou Xuan had not asked the Old Ancestor since he learned of this matter.
He hadn't even had time to go in and cultivate.
He hadn't expected this matter to be true.
"Why would I lie to you, young man? But these are all past rumors. Now that I see the Qiankun Mirror before I enter the earth, I have calculated that the other three divine artifacts have already appeared."
"I've said so much because I want you to seize the opportunity. If you want to bring down the Qin family, you must firmly grasp these four items."
"Thank you, Uncle-Master, for your guidance."
"Don't thank me yet."
Elder Huang waved his hand, "You only need to remember that if you can't bring down the Qin family this time, then your future days will likely be even more difficult."
"Uncle-Master, don't worry."
Zhou Xuan smiled confidently, as he had always been confident in himself.
"By the way, Uncle-Master, you just said that if the four great magical artifacts are complete, one can command the world?" Zhou Xuan asked again.
"Yes."
"Do you have any news of the other three?"
"I don't have the fortune to see them; it's all hearsay. After the decline of the immortal cultivation clans, many things disappeared without a trace."
"The five great families in the capital, the Qin family, the Lu family, the Zhuge family, the Sun family, and the Fang family, all had immortal connections in their ancestors."
"If these magical artifacts are not among them, then they are scattered."
Zhou Xuan listened and found that it was no different from what the Old Ancestor had said.
The Sun family's heirloom gourd was stolen.
Perhaps it was in some corner now.
But the Old Ancestor meant that the person who obtained the magical artifact was already cultivating demonic arts.
Absorbing all energy, both righteous and evil, into their bodies would ultimately only create a monster that only knew how to kill.
However, to know how to use the gourd artifact and how to counter it, one must go to Gourd Valley to find the mysterious things there.
After all, with the origin, one can know oneself and the enemy, and win a hundred battles.
Zhou Xuan thought of Yue Lou.
Could it be that Yue Lou had already obtained these things through Zhang Sanbao and others?
But Jiang Yun and Li Xue were already dead.
Zhang Sanbao was missing.
Now.
Zhou Xuan had already brought Li Xuan, the owner of the Qiankun Mirror, under his command, and had even found a good master for her.
His own ring's void space, and the other half was in the ruins of Longling.
The last item, was it that ring?
Or were there other magical artifacts he didn't know about?
Then would it be in the Qin family, or in the other Fang family, Zhuge family, and Lu family?
At this moment.
Elder Huang spoke.
"You might be asking, among the five families, who is most likely to have a magical artifact."
"I tell you, it's in the Zhuge family."
"Zhuge?"
Zhou Xuan hadn't expected this.
He didn't even think it would be in the Zhuge family, let alone any other family.
After all, the Zhuge family was far inferior to the Qin family.
"Uncle-Master? Where did you see that? The Zhuge family doesn't seem to have anything comparable to the Qin family."
"Why do you think the magical artifact is in the Zhuge family? Did they reveal it to you?"
"Do you underestimate the strength of the Zhuge family?" Elder Huang retorted.
"No, I think that since the Qin family has become number one now, they might have a magical artifact," Zhou Xuan replied.
"Indeed! But that's just your guess."
Elder Huang nodded, then fell silent for a moment, and added, "The old patriarch of the Zhuge family is named Zhuge Changfeng. You should have heard of him, right?"
"He held a banquet for his granddaughter last time?" Zhou Xuan asked doubtfully, "Isn't his granddaughter Zhuge Qingxue one of the next heirs?"
It seemed to be Zhuge Mingyue's coming-of-age ceremony last time.
He really didn't know Zhuge Qingxue.
Zhuge Qingxue and Zhuge Mingyue were half-sisters.
"They are half-sisters. Zhuge Qingxue is the eldest granddaughter of the eldest branch, and Zhuge Mingyue is the second daughter of the eldest branch," Elder Huang explained calmly.
"What's the point of that?" Zhou Xuan asked.
Elder Huang shook his head.
"You are still too young."
"They are both skilled swordsmen!"
"Do you know how long the history of the Zhuge family is?" Elder Huang looked at Zhou Xuan and asked slowly.
"As far as I know, the Zhuge family has existed at least since ancient times," Elder Huang continued, "The Zhuge family should still have some hidden strength, but it has not been exposed."
"In other words, the Zhuge family is playing the wolf in sheep's clothing?"
Elder Huang nodded appreciatively.
What Zhou Xuan said was correct.
The Zhuge family's strength was immense, spreading across almost all of China.
However, in the past decade, they seemed to have been very low-key, even having to rely on the Fang family for survival.
Later, when the Qin family rose again, he clung to the Qin family's coattails, always being adaptable and flexible.
"Do you want this magical artifact? If you do, Lin Fan can help you infiltrate the Zhuge family as a spy for a while. After all, they are selecting talents during this period, and the seventeenth on the Heavenly Ranking, the Zhuge family, will not refuse him."
Elder Huang was Lin Fan's benefactor and master.
Lin Fan respectfully carried out Elder Huang's requests, but it didn't mean that this person had to be used by him.
"This..."
Zhou Xuan hesitated, as he had no way to answer.
"I know you have concerns."
Elder Huang smiled faintly, "Among the five families, the Zhuge family is the most promising."
"To be honest, the Zhuge family has already started to act, but they have not succeeded yet."
Zhou Xuan was puzzled, not understanding the Zhuge family's purpose.
Elder Huang continued to explain, "This talent selection mission is to protect that magical artifact."
"In the past, the Zhuge family almost lost this item once."
"They chose to hide their strength to avoid exposing their identities, but in that incident, their identities were exposed."
"And this almost attracted the covetousness of the Qin family. Fortunately, Zhuge Changfeng had some relationship with me, and I helped them at that time."
Hearing this, Zhou Xuan's heart skipped a beat.
Now it seemed that the Zhuge family and his enemies were the same kind of people.
"The people guarding the treasure in the Zhuge family all died on the road."
But afterwards, Zhuge Changfeng dared not say a word to the Qin family.
Elder Huang continued.
"Then what is the effect of this magical artifact of the Zhuge family?" Zhou Xuan asked curiously.
"The magical artifact not only has effects, but it can also help cultivators break through their realms with a tenfold increase in probability."
"So powerful!" Zhou Xuan was shocked.
This magical artifact was truly heaven-defying!
"You must not underestimate this magical artifact, because unless there is a special method or coincidence, it is not so easy to obtain."
It seemed that this magical artifact was more powerful than the one he had.
"Have you heard of Sword Spirits?"
Elder Huang asked in return.
"No," Zhou Xuan shook his head, not understanding why Elder Huang said that.
His Lingtian Zhanji had spirituality, but he didn't think there was a spiritual being inside.
Elder Huang shook his head slightly, seemingly dissatisfied with Zhou Xuan's answer, and continued, "Actually, this is my guess, because the Zhuge family's magical artifact is named Qingluan, and it comes from the 'Qingluan Sword Art', which is an ancient divine ability. It is said that this set of divine abilities was created by an ancient Divine King!"
"Zhuge Changfeng and the younger generation of the Zhuge family all like to use swords. Have you noticed this?"
Zhou Xuan nodded.
"Ancient Divine King?!"
