"I told you, you cannot extract this Buddha's Relic." Ye Qing said leisurely, "You think the Seven Steering Committees of Hong Alliance are lacking in Fad Instrunts? I've already tried renowned weapons, broke several of them, but they couldn't even scratch my skin. Let be honest with you, soone once told that the strength of my body is comparable to the Vajra Indestructible Body from the Buddhist Sect. Unless you find an ultimate fad instrunt like the Xuanyuan Sword and Minghong Knife, no other fad weapon can harm my body in the slightest!"
Du Canglang frowned deeply. He had heard of the Vajra Indestructible Body, it is one of the most profound Ultimate Techniques of the Buddhist Sect, a realm that can only be achieved by training the physical body to the extre. At this stage, the body is so robust that it can resist any fad instrunt, truly extraordinary. If Ye Qing's body had really reached the level of the Vajra Indestructible Body, then all the fad instrunts in this secret chamber combined wouldn't be able to harm Ye Qing in the slightest.
"The Vajra Indestructible Body has not appeared in this world for many years, I don't believe you can train to achieve it!" Du Canglang suddenly gritted his teeth and said, "Ye, don't try to deceive !"
Ye Qing said, "I am not deceiving you. Of course, I haven't trained to achieve the Vajra Indestructible Body, but don't forget, the Buddha's Relic is in my possession. This Vajra Indestructible Body was granted to by the Buddha's Relic, not sothing I achieved on my own."
"Is that so?" Du Canglang imdiately showed an excited expression and urgently asked, "Can the Buddha's Relic really have such an effect, transforming a person's body into a Vajra Indestructible Body?"
Ye Qing did not answer him. Du Canglang, however, beca even more excited. He originally thought that the Buddha's Relic had imnse power, unmatched by anyone in the world. Unexpectedly, the Buddha's Relic also had this effect. If he could obtain and control the Buddha's Relic, not only would he possess the most powerful strength in the world, but he could also transform his body into a Vajra Indestructible Body. That would truly allow him to roam the world unhindered.
After a mont of silence, Du Canglang suddenly threw down the longsword in his hand and rushed into the secret chamber to search for sothing. Those fad instrunts were tossed about and disorganized, but he didn't have the ti to worry about his inventory, only searching for sothing among the pile of fad instrunts.
Seeing Du Canglang utterly absorbed in his search, Ye Qing quietly slipped out of the secret chamber. He then tapped several tis at the chanism, causing the door of the secret chamber to fall, sealing it shut.
Having locked Du Canglang in the secret chamber, Ye Qing dared not hesitate for a mont and imdiately turned to run outside the cave. He didn't know whether the secret chamber had other switches, but now this was the only chance he had.
However, before he got far, the secret chamber door opened again, and Du Canglang caught up with Ye Qing in just a few steps, grabbing Ye Qing and dragging him back.
"I advise you to stop these futile little tricks, there is absolutely no way you can escape!" Du Canglang threw Ye Qing back into the secret chamber and said coldly, "I know every hill and stone in this cave like the back of my hand—stop wasting your efforts."
Ye Qing felt helpless. He had lost all his Inner Strength and was effectively a person without any Martial Arts. Being with Du Canglang, a standout among Peak Masters, was utterly incomparable. In Du Canglang's grasp, even if he wanted to escape, it was basically impossible.
"You can't extract the Buddha's Relic, nor can you kill , so what do you plan to do?" Ye Qing looked at Du Canglang and said, "Do you intend to keep locked up here?"
"I don't believe I can't extract this Buddha's Relic!" Du Canglang went back to the pile of fad instrunts, rummaged around for a while, and pulled out a Short Dagger.
Du Canglang turned to look at Ye Qing, excitent flashing across his face, "This dagger is called the tamorphic Iron Dagger, do you know what it's used for?"
"tamorphic Iron Dagger?" Ye Qing was puzzled. The na was strange—what exactly was this dagger used for?
Du Canglang said, "In ancient tis, the materials needed to forge fad instrunts were not ordinary. Just like forging the Overlord Spear, Black Profound Iron was used. Do you know how that Black Profound Iron ca to be?"
"How did it co to be?" Ye Qing asked eagerly, curious about the origins of these ancient fad instrunts.
Du Canglang said, "What is called Black Profound Iron is a type of Mysterious Iron. Its origins are quite strange, as people dug it out from underground or from within mountains."
"Oh?" Ye Qing asked curiously, "Dug out iron ore?"
"No." Du Canglang shook his head and said, "Once it's unearthed, it's already the ford Mysterious Iron!"
"What?" Ye Qing was astonished. With modern iron slting technology, everything excavated from the mountains are iron ores. The so-called iron slting is the process of turning iron ore into iron; he had never heard of directly excavating iron instead of iron ore from the mountains, where iron is already ford.
"You also find it unbelievable, don't you?" Du Canglang said, "But that's indeed the case. The materials used to forge fad instrunts in ancient tis were mostly pre-ford Mysterious Iron. And this Mysterious Iron is much harder than the iron we slt from ore. Moreover, when it becos a weapon, it possesses a special aura. Therefore, weapons forged from Mysterious Iron are mostly fad instrunts."
Ye Qing looked at Du Canglang, slightly furrowing his brow, and said, "You're lying to , right? How can such things be possible?"
"It's normal that you don't know about these things. Actually, it's been a long ti since anyone forged a fad instrunt, so naturally, few know about the origins of fad instrunts." Du Canglang said, "It was by chance that I obtained a scroll left by an ancient master of instrunt refining that I learned these secrets."
"Did that master of instrunt refining not say how the Mysterious Iron ca about?" Ye Qing asked.
"He didn't know either." Du Canglang paused for a mont and said, "So say that this so-called Mysterious Iron is the five-colored stone left on the ground when Nu Wa nded the sky. Others claim it's divine iron scattered on earth by immortals. Hmph, these claims sound too absurd. If there are true gods, why does no one achieve longevity? Even Buddhist and Taoist Magic can't escape death, so why speak of ghost gods in this world?"
Ye Qing looked at Du Canglang; as he spoke, his emotions were visibly agitated. It's understandable, given that his lifespan was nearing its end, and what dying people wish for most is immortality. But, spending his entire life trying to extend his life and cheat death wasn't easy, let alone imagining longevity. Naturally, he felt discontented towards the notion of ghost gods.
After venting a bit, Du Canglang looked at Ye Qing and said, "This tamorphic Iron Dagger is the treasure I obtained from the relics of that master of instrunt refining. As I ntioned earlier, ancient tis used extrely hard and special materials like Mysterious Iron to forge fad instrunts. However, a piece of Mysterious Iron extracted from underground or mountains could vary in size. Small pieces can be directly slted, but what about large pieces? When even the slting pot can't contain it, does it an large pieces of Mysterious Iron have no use?"
Ye Qing looked at the tamorphic Iron Dagger in Du Canglang's hand and said solemnly, "According to your words, is this tamorphic Iron Dagger used to break down large pieces of Mysterious Iron?"
"Smart!" Du Canglang laughed and said, "Correct! The function of this tamorphic Iron Dagger is to break down large pieces of Mysterious Iron. Large Mysterious Iron is very hard and can't even be cut by fad instrunts, but the tamorphic Iron Dagger can cleave Mysterious Iron, subdividing large pieces into smaller ones, then slted and forged into fad instrunts. Thus, this dagger is nad the tamorphic Iron Dagger!"
Du Canglang said, raising the dagger slowly and looking at Ye Qing, "Your body can withstand the attack of fad instrunts, but I don't believe you can endure the sharpness of this tamorphic Iron Dagger. Ye Qing, the Buddha's Relic in your hand is still mine!"
Looking at the tamorphic Iron Dagger in Du Canglang's hand, Ye Qing felt a bit worried. If this tamorphic Iron Dagger could indeed cut open his hand to extract the Buddha's Relic, Ye Qing would be in trouble. Besides whether Du Canglang would kill him, the key issue is that the Buddha-Demon powers in him would lose balance. If the Buddha's Relic left his body, the Buddhist Sect powers would no longer be present while the Devouring Demon Flower's powers would remain, allowing the Demon Sect powers to take control of his body. That would undeniably be disastrous, possibly leading him to fall into the Demon Sect.
Du Canglang wasn't aware of Ye Qing's thoughts; he wielded the tamorphic Iron Dagger and approached Ye Qing, lifting Ye Qing's right hand without a word, and stabbed downward again.
Ye Qing took a sharp breath of cold air, fearing that the tamorphic Iron Dagger might pierce his palm in one strike. However, when the tamorphic Iron Dagger landed on his hand, the results were the sa as before. The tamorphic Iron Dagger, which could cleave Mysterious Iron, couldn't pierce Ye Qing's skin, unable to harm him at all.
Seeing this, Ye Qing finally exhaled in relief. As long as the Buddha's Relic remained in his body, Du Canglang couldn't kill him, nor would he fall into the Demon Sect.
This situation was completely unexpected for Du Canglang; he couldn't fathom that the tamorphic Iron Dagger couldn't pierce Ye Qing's hand. Unwilling to believe, he tried several more stabs and cuts, but there was no effect at all. Not even a white mark was made on Ye Qing's hand—the tamorphic Iron Dagger couldn't hurt Ye Qing in the slightest.
"Hahaha..." Ye Qing laughed and said, "Du Canglang, could your tamorphic Iron Dagger be a fake? Or maybe everything you said about the tamorphic Iron Dagger was a trick to deceive ? The dagger that could cut Mysterious Iron can't cut my hand? Who would believe that?"
Du Canglang frowned deeply; he confird that the tamorphic Iron Dagger indeed couldn't cut open Ye Qing's palm. He tossed the dagger aside, staring blankly at Ye Qing's palm, once again falling into deep thought. If even the tamorphic Iron Dagger couldn't cut open Ye Qing's palm, can the Buddha's Relic still be extracted? Was it all just futile effort on his part this ti?
