"I wonder if there is a way to resolve the Karmic Cause and Effect of my Confucian School beliefs? If so, please inform me, young friend Ximen. My entire Confucian School community will be eternally grateful."
Taking a deep breath, the leading Confucian School elder spoke up, adopting an extremely humble posture for the first time, as did the other seven elders.
For the sake of their family and the entire Confucian School, saving face was nothing to them; they had that much courage.
Wheel-Turning King's expression turned sinister. He seemed about to say something, but after glancing at the eight Confucian School patriarchs, he ultimately remained silent.
There's no way around it; now is really not the time for the Old Zhu Household to officially start a war with the Confucian School.
"No need for gratitude, just give me the ancient swords you have. In any case, these eight ancient swords would never be able to cultivate true spirits even if they were kept by your Confucian School. Rather than letting these treasures gather dust, you might as well give them to me!"
Wang Hao made no attempt to hide his greed for the ancient sword handle; these were all genuine treasures!
Most importantly, these things would be of great help to him; if he could get his hands on them, they would be of immense assistance.
Unfortunately, he knew that these eight old guys would absolutely not agree.
As expected, the eight Confucian School patriarchs smiled awkwardly and said, "We apologize, these eight ancient swords are relics left by our ancestors, and we dare not give them away. However, our Confucian School has also accumulated some treasures. Why don't you come to our Confucian School and choose a few, young friend Ximen?"
"This is so boring!"
With a frustrated wave of his hand, Wang Hao casually said, "I dare not go to your Confucian School, otherwise if I really get involved with your Karmic Cause and Effect, my future will be completely ruined. However, I am somewhat interested in your treasures, bring them all over and let me take a look."
Although we can't obtain those eight ancient swords, choosing some treasures from the Confucian School would be a good alternative.
Back then, several treasures could be found in the Old Zhu Household's secret vault. As the dominant power in the Central Plains for nearly two thousand years, the Confucian School had an even deeper foundation and would certainly possess even more treasures.
Therefore, this deal is not a loss.
"Thank you very much, young friend. The treasure will be delivered within three days!"
The eight Confucian School patriarchs breathed a sigh of relief and expressed their sincere gratitude.
" The Karmic Cause and Effect is something that no force, or even every individual, can avoid. However, under normal circumstances, the Karmic Cause and Effect one is tainted by is very small, and one's own Fortune can completely suppress it."
Furthermore, all the forces in the overseas martial arts world will try their best to prevent their disciples from going out and causing trouble, thus increasing their Karmic Cause and Effect. Once discovered, they will generally be expelled from the sect, or even directly killed as a sacrifice, so as not to implicate the sect or family.
However, there are times when one has no other choice. As far as I know, there are three ways to suppress Karmic Cause and Effect. The first is to find a Fortune force with strong fortune to rely on and use that Fortune to suppress oneself.
But with the Karmic Cause and Effect accumulated by your Confucian School, even the entire overseas martial arts world combined might not be able to suppress them!
At this point, Wang Hao pretended to be very wary and glanced at the top of the heads of the Confucian School and others. He even took a step to the side to avoid suspicion, as if he could see their Karmic Cause and Effect and was afraid of being tainted.
These words, coupled with that action, darkened the faces of the Confucian School and others. They felt uneasy, but they patiently listened on.
"The second method is to do things that benefit the nation and the heavens, gain the favor of heaven and earth, increase one's own Fortune, and thus suppress the Karmic Cause and Effect on one's body."
However, the problem remains: the Karmic Cause and Effect on you is too vast, and I cannot think of anything that could allow you to obtain something sufficient to suppress such Karmic Cause and Effect.
Shaking his head again, Wang Hao continued, "The third method is to condense one's own Fortune and refine a powerful Fortune Supreme Treasure to forcibly suppress oneself. However, the material of the Fortune Supreme Treasure must be up to par, otherwise it simply cannot bear the vast Fortune of your Confucian School."
At this point, Wang Hao paused, allowing the eight Confucian School patriarchs to quietly digest the information.
Although he was an enemy of Confucian School, he disdained to deceive them on such matters. In fact, he even planned to fool the entire Confucian School and bring them into his plans.
Although this idea is crazy and very difficult to implement, the rewards are equally high, making it worth a try!
Therefore, the three methods he mentioned are all true; they were things he heard about in the Jiuli Tribe in his previous life in the Primordial World Era, and they also apply to a low-martial-power world like the Smiling, Proud Wanderer, Proud Wanderer.
Upon hearing Wang Hao's third method, the dark expressions on the faces of the eight Confucian School patriarchs finally eased slightly. After pondering for a moment, they glanced at the eight ancient swords in their hands, and with a thought, asked hopefully, "Could our ancient swords serve as vessels for Fortune Supreme Treasure?"
"Are you sure you want to use a sword as a vessel for this treasure of Fortune Supreme Treasure?"
Wang Hao looked at the eight Confucian School patriarchs with a strange expression. This time, he wasn't just putting on an act; he was genuinely shocked by the thoughts of these eight old men!
I've seen people court death, but I've never seen anyone court death like this.
"What? Is it not allowed?"
This strange expression made the eight Confucian School patriarchs' hearts skip a beat. They asked in a weak, low voice, feeling a sense of unease.
"It's not impossible, but the Fortune Supreme Treasure is related to the development of the entire force, and the sword itself is a weapon of killing. Once the Fortune Supreme Treasure of destiny is condensed in the sword, your Confucian School will inevitably be constantly killing people in the future."
According to ancient records, this type of Fortune Supreme Treasure was once gathered by some powerful forces in the overseas martial arts world thousands of years ago, but none of them lasted long before being wiped out.
Wang Hao feigned reminiscence, and his words caused the eight Confucian School patriarchs to darken their faces once more, and they trembled in fear, nearly dropping the ancient swords in their hands.
The eight people exchanged glances, all determined that even if they were tricked to death, they would never use a sword as a vessel for their Fortune Supreme Treasure, otherwise their Confucian School would be wiped out.
They believed the young man's words without a doubt, not because they believed his words, but because they believed in themselves.
Upon reaching their level, they establish a subtle connection with the world, enabling them to vaguely sense matters concerning themselves and to foresee dangers and blessings.
Just moments ago, when they were about to use the ancient sword in their hands as a vessel for their Fortune Supreme Treasure, they all inexplicably felt a sense of unease.
At the time, I didn't understand what was going on, but after hearing what this kid in front of me said, I immediately understood.
Under such circumstances, how could they dare to use their ancient sword as a vessel for their Fortune Supreme Treasure?
"Please, young friend, elaborate on the matter of this Fortune Supreme Treasure!"
The eight Confucian School patriarchs gestured for someone to bring over a table and chairs and pour tea before signaling Wang Hao to continue.
Meanwhile, the martial arts practitioners who were working, including the Innate experts among them, all slowed down and strained their ears to eavesdrop on Wang Hao and the others' conversation.
They wouldn't miss such an opportunity, and it's one of the main reasons they gathered here. Otherwise, what would they, as martial arts masters and seniors, do if they were out of their minds to come here and work as construction workers?
"Good tea!"
Wang Hao picked up the tea and took a sip. His eyes lit up. Even though he didn't know much about tea, he could tell that this tea was extraordinary. It had an indescribable quality and was definitely top-quality tea!
Turning my head, I saw that the one brewing the tea was the same fearless young lady from before.
Seeing Wang Hao looking over, the young lady returned a gentle smile.
"The wonders of Fortune are all-encompassing, and the Fortune Supreme Treasure is the carrier of Fortune. It can often amplify a certain aspect of Fortune's function. For example, Fortune is quite useful in battle. If it is carried by weapons, it can improve the efficiency of killing and even form secret killing techniques or even supernatural powers."
However, this type of Fortune Supreme Treasure is most likely to attract Karmic Cause and Effect. Once the accumulated Karmic Cause and Effect exceeds its own limit, it will collapse, even bringing disaster to its disciples, causing them to go mad and die. Therefore, no force in the overseas martial arts world dares to use weapons as Fortune Supreme Treasure.
There is even an agreement among the various factions that if any faction discovers Fortune Supreme Treasure of destiny that has condensed into the form of a weapon, they will rise up and destroy it.
The Fortune Supreme Treasure by various forces in the overseas martial arts world take many forms and have different functions. For example, the Fortune Supreme Treasure of the Taoist School is a Taiji Diagram, which can accelerate the cultivation and comprehension of Taoist School martial arts, and even allow people to enter a state of enlightenment to comprehend the mysteries of heaven and earth.
..."
Wang Hao was talking so much that spittle flew everywhere, and he was getting more and more excited as he talked.
Of course, he wasn't just making things up; the Fortune Supreme Treasure do indeed have these functions. This is common knowledge in the Jiuli Tribe, practically common sense.
For example, the Jiuli Tribe he belonged to in his Primordial World past life condensed a ferocious tiger, and the vessel for it was the Tiger Soul Saber of the Great Demon God Chiyou. It had a strong auxiliary effect in killing and fighting, and could even condense a ferocious tiger dharma image to attack the opponent.
The Jiuli Tribe is a collection of many tribes, each with its own treasured Fortune Supreme Treasure or Totem Divine Artifact. For example, in his previous life in the Primordial World world, he belonged to the War King Tribe, and his treasured Fortune Supreme Treasure was an axe.
This gives the people of the War King Tribe a significant advantage when wielding heavy weapons like axes, so almost 99% of the people in that city use axes.
This is also a basic setting of Fortune. As long as the essence of Fortune remains unchanged, then it will be the same setting in any world, and the same is true for the low-level martial arts world of the Smiling, Proud Wanderer at the World.
Upon hearing these secrets, everyone present seemed to be deep in thought, while those who didn't understand didn't show their confusion or ignorance. In any case, they all thought the big shot's words were incredibly impressive and they were quite bewildered.
"Then, I wonder what kind of object would be suitable for our Confucian School to serve as a Fortune Supreme Treasure? Do you have any suggestions, young friend Ximen?"
After they had almost digested what Wang Hao had explained, the Confucian School elder at the head of the group spoke again and asked a question. Immediately, everyone's eyes turned to Wang Hao again, waiting for Wang Hao response.
It is important to know that Confucian School is currently the dominant force in the Central Plains and a leading force in Huaxia civilization. Therefore, Confucian School has a significant impact on all aspects of the world.
Things as precious as the Fortune Supreme Treasure, which are of such high status and far-reaching influence, naturally require even greater care; otherwise, any mistake would be a disaster for the entire world.
The overseas prodigy before them, Ximen Chuixue, known as the Sword God, could greatly influence the Confucian School's choices, and their subsequent response was of paramount importance.
