But imdiately after, Lu Youdao shook his head, his expression both tragic and unfamiliar, "No, this is just one of the reasons, but not the most crucial one."
"It’s for that!" Lu Youdao turned around, raised his hand, and pointed straight to the deepest part of the corridor.
Following the direction of Lu Youdao’s finger, at the deepest end of the corridor was another door, different from the others without chaotic materials or covered in human skin, just a very ordinary wooden door, similar to the kind used in ho bedrooms.
"There’s also a Resentful Eye hidden there." It was a clear understanding that behind every door here was a Resentful Eye, and the deeper ones were only more dangerous.
"What kind of Resentful Eye is it?" Staring at that door, Yang Xiao suddenly felt a strong urge to explore, as if driven by so force.
But Lu Youdao did not answer him directly, instead murmuring to himself, "Do you know why I’ve beco this ghostly figure?"
Yang Xiao clearly rembered that Lu Youdao had ntioned this to him before, that when the young Sect Master disappeared, the Deputy Sect Master couldn’t control the gatekeepers underneath, leading to an internal conflict within the Yu Yuan Sect, and he took the opportunity to escape, but was heavily injured and suffered backlash from the Magic Artifact.
Back then, Yang Xiao didn’t think much about it, but recalling now, things likely weren’t that simple, "You took their item and were attacked." Yang Xiao said quietly.
"That’s right, it was for this item. I killed the Du Gate Master amidst the chaos and injured another gate master, but was then pursued by the remaining gate masters. Fortunately, I eventually escaped and brought out this treasure."
"But I didn’t expect that was just the beginning of my nightmare. With my abilities, I couldn’t control this thing at all. If not for the fine elixir from the Yin Temple in my hand, you and I wouldn’t be eting today."
"But even so, I endured the torture of having my tendons pulled and skin peeled, going back and forth at the Ghost Gate several tis, barely clinging to life."
"Unfortunately, all my skills were wasted, and all three Resentful Eyes I owned were stripped away, all because of that thing!"
Even though so much ti had passed, once ntioning these, Lu Youdao’s eyes quickly reddened, and Yang Xiao could completely feel the deep pain within him.
Taking a deep breath, Yang Xiao steadied his mind and asked quietly, "What kind of object is it?"
"Don’t ask, I can’t tell you." Lu Youdao shook his head.
Yang Xiao was confused, after so much buildup, and now at the last mont, you stop talking, aren’t you just toying with ?
"I can give you this item, but not to the current you. You’re not qualified yet." Lu Youdao explained to Yang Xiao in a softened tone.
"Then you at least have to tell what kind of thing it is?" Yang Xiao beca more confused, Lu Youdao’s words were all over the place.
"I can’t say, it’s for your own good. The more you know about this thing, the less likely you can wield it, perhaps even losing your life for it."
Yang Xiao was taken aback, the more you know, the more dangerous it is, sounded like a divine notion, and he boldly speculated, this could very likely be a Spiritual Magical Artifact.
Or an extrely strange Magic Artifact he had never seen or heard before.
But no matter which, it could be confird this was absolutely a good item, else Lu Youdao, once the Shocking Gate Master, wouldn’t risk everything to steal it and fight the other experts within the Yu Yuan Sect, even killing the Du Gate Master.
ntioning this, Yang Xiao didn’t delve into the details, brewing for a mont then said, "This is a Nether-level Magic Artifact, correct?"
"Of course." Lu Youdao’s tone was extraordinarily firm, "You’ve seen the young Sect Master, and should know what kind of person he is, and what abilities he possesses. In his eyes, this artifact ranks among the top three within all the Yu Yuan Sect’s possessions."
With that, Yang Xiao knew the weight of this item, estimating it no less than the Corpse Mirror.
"If so, why doesn’t the Sect Master wield it himself, can’t he or doesn’t he dare?" Yang Xiao’s intelligence stood evident.
"I don’t know, perhaps this item conflicts with another artifact he has, or maybe he’s simply unsuitable to wield this Magic Artifact."
Lu Youdao’s answer was valid, the Angel Envoy and Magic Artifact are a mutual selection, not about higher grade being better, suitability is most crucial.
Evaluating an Angel Envoy’s power isn’t solely about the quantity of Magic Artifacts; for instance, Yang Xiao possesses over ten excellent artifacts, all of premium selection by his good sister.
Yet, the top martial artist at the Jiangbei Province Office, Chief Wu, only has two artifacts, and should they face off, suffice to say, if Yang Xiao hesitated even a second with the elixir, he wouldn’t even have a chance to flee.
Though harsh, this is reality, if not for his good sister backing, Yang Xiao would’ve been overwheld long ago by the artifacts he absorbed.
"When would I be able to attempt wielding that Magic Artifact?" Yang Xiao asked directly, "What level were you when you failed to wield it?"
"Upper Ghost Level, slightly higher." Lu Youdao replied directly.
No wonder he was the gate master of Upper Three Gates, his ability was formidable. Having an Upper Ghost Level strength was enough to secure an elder position even in a large power like the Esoteric Sect.
That the Yu Yuan Sect could stir up the world of martial arts back then wasn’t rely because that young Sect Master was talented, but the sect indeed gathered a group of experts.
According to Lu Youdao’s recollection, the Deputy Sect Master possessed a half-step Nether Realm strength, and among the Upper Three Gates Masters, he was the weakest, with the Death Gate Master having the peak of Ghost Level strength, not to ntion the Wounded Door Master being not much inferior.
