Already dead?
Lu Qingwu had reached Celestial Person Perfection, and he was far from an ordinary cultivator at that level. Who could have killed him?
Zhang Yuan's gaze sharpened slightly. After pondering for a moment without arriving at the truth, he simply stopped thinking about it.
Surely Sword Immortal Jiang Peilan, who had reached Celestial Person Perfection, hadn't arrived just after he passed through the gate to the Mountain-Sea Profound Yellow Realm that day and slaughtered Lu Qingwu with a single slash?
Forget it. It didn't matter. Lu Qingwu's death was undoubtedly good news-it removed a formidable enemy. How he had died wasn't really important.
"Alas! Since Fellow Daoist Lu is already dead, I can only keep his belongings safe for the time being."
Zhang Yuan sighed, tossed the whisk in his hand into his Dao Domain, and took out Lu Qingwu's whisk. It was a Pre-Heaven Supreme Treasure, after all. Why let it go to waste?
"The Pre-Heaven Supreme Treasure [Nine-Turn Form-Destroying Whisk], a superior offensive Supreme Treasure. In sheer power, it can rival the [Eastern Mystic-Yang Fusang Banner]. Though I haven't ritually refined it yet, holding it to disguise my identity should be no problem."
The whisk's strands were translucent and pure white, and its handle gave off wafts of sandalwood fragrance.
Zhang Yuan toyed with it for a while, then activated it slightly. Its white strands shot out, riddling the ground ahead with holes.
To unleash a Pre-Heaven Supreme Treasure's full power and miraculous effects, one had to ritually refine it first. Even without refinement, however, it could still be activated; its miraculous effects simply remained inaccessible.
For Zhang Yuan, whether he refined the [Nine-Turn Form-Destroying Whisk] made little difference. If he truly encountered a formidable enemy, he wouldn't use this whisk to fight them anyway. Its
