Chapter 74: Divine Power Opportunity Arrives! (2)

Translator: Daoist6fubtiW

“What does ‘Ten Cauldrons’ power mean?” Lu Changsheng didn’t understand the concept of “Ten Cauldrons” power, but it didn’t stop him from sensing the mysterious nature of the “Qian Tian Transforming Treasure Secret Technique.” This was undoubtedly a very rare divine power realm secret technique, perhaps even a top-tier one!

Lu Changsheng carefully rolled up the sheepskin scroll and continued searching the bodies.

However, to his surprise, he didn’t find any divine power realm martial arts.

Either the Great Desert’s Thirteen Riders didn’t possess divine power realm martial arts, or they didn’t carry them on their persons.

Lu Changsheng continued to search some other bandits’ bodies, but there wasn’t much significant discovery.

Afterward, he picked up the thirteen curved knives on the ground.

These thirteen curved knives were his proof of having killed the Great Desert’s Thirteen Riders.

He wrapped the curved knives in cloth and continued searching the bandits’ hideout, acquiring some silver notes and coins.

In fact, Lu Changsheng wasn’t in dire need of silver now.

However, he wouldn’t complain about having too much silver.

Silver ingots were inconvenient to carry, so Lu Changsheng took all the silver notes instead.

Busy for over an hour, Lu Changsheng finally stopped searching and began to count his gains.

This time, his gains were substantial.

But compared to the silver notes and secret techniques he acquired, the greater reward for Lu Changsheng was the peace of his mind.

He left the stronghold and looked back. It was a sight of complete silence, with corpses scattered all over, resembling a hellish scene. Yet, it brought a profound sense of tranquility to Lu Changsheng’s heart.

At this moment, his heart had finally settled!

He seemed to have “seen” a surreal black-and-white gateway in his mind.

Lu Changsheng’s heart was filled with fortune, and he immediately understood what this surreal gateway was.

The Gateway of Life and Death!

This was indeed the Gateway of Life and Death!

“The gateway has appeared, and the opportunity to advance to the divine power realm has come!” Lu Changsheng murmured softly.

He knew very well that, as long as he was willing, he could attempt to break through the Gateway of Life and Death and advance to the divine power realm at any time now!

However, Lu Changsheng wasn’t in a hurry. He calmed his turbulent emotions.

Advancing to the divine power realm was a major event, and this was a forest. Moreover, many people had died here.

If something unexpected happened during his attempt to advance to the divine power realm, his situation might become unfavorable.

“Let’s head back first.”

Lu Changsheng didn’t hesitate and immediately turned to make his way down the mountain.

Nanyang City, the Prefectural Magistrate’s yamen.

Li Mu’s eyes had bloodshot veins, and he looked quite fatigued.

He had tossed and turned all night, unable to sleep. Even after daybreak, he was still preoccupied with the matter of the Great Desert’s Thirteen Riders.

“Is there any news about Hero Zhuang, who challenged the rankings last night?” Li Mu inquired.

The night watchman had changed, but they were still aware of last night’s challenge to the rankings. Therefore, one of them promptly responded, “My lord, there’s still no news about Hero Zhuang.”

Li Mu’s heart sank slightly. Based on past experience, the longer they took, the less hopeful it seemed. After all, if they were truly powerful, eliminating the Great Desert’s Thirteen Riders wouldn’t require much time.

The nearby yamen attendants dared not speak any further. In fact, they didn’t hold much hope themselves. In the past, individuals like the Cloud Mountain Seven Brothers, the One-Armed Hero, Shen Ying, and others, who were all powerful martial artists with various skills, had tried to eliminate the Great Desert’s Thirteen Riders. But what was the outcome? None of them had succeeded. How could an unknown wandering martial artist possibly eliminate the Thirteen Riders of the Great Desert?

Just then, Li Mu’s eyes suddenly widened. What did he see?

“Zhuang Thirteen” had actually walked into the yamen step by step.

And he directly threw a bundle onto the ground.

With a “swoosh,” the bundle fell to the ground, revealing a series of uniquely shaped curved knives.

“These… These are the curved knives of the Great Desert’s Thirteen Riders?”

“Hero Zhuang, have you eliminated the Great Desert’s Thirteen Riders?” Li Mu seemed almost unable to believe it, his face suddenly turning red with excitement.

“The Great Desert’s Thirteen Riders are dead.”

“If Magistrate Li doesn’t believe it, you can send someone to the Great Desert’s Thirteen Riders’ stronghold to verify.”

“By the way, it’s best for Magistrate Li to dispatch more people; there are quite a few bodies in the stronghold that need to be buried quickly.”

Lu Changsheng replied calmly.

“I believe you, Hero Zhuang!”

“The curved knives of the Great Desert’s Thirteen Riders are quite unique, and one look is enough.”

“Hahaha, 1 have tens of thousands of people in Nanyang Prefecture, all of whom will be grateful to Hero Zhuang. Please allow me to bow to you!”

Li Mu was ecstatic and immediately bowed to Lu Changsheng.

“Magistrate Li, after 1 have eliminated the Great Desert’s Thirteen Riders, will the reward mentioned on the Magistrate’s Office ‘Hero’s List’ be honored?”

Lu Changsheng had come to the Magistrate’s Office for the sake of the reward.

“Of course, the ten curved knives are the evidence, and with that evidence, the reward on the ‘Hero’s List’ will naturally be honored.”

“Someone, bring the chest from my office over.”

Thus, the yamen attendants quickly brought over a large chest.

Li Mu opened the chest, revealing a brilliant gold color inside, all in the form of gold coins.

A thousand taels of gold was equivalent to ten thousand taels of silver, or a hundred catties!

However, Lu Changsheng’s focus wasn’t on the gold but on the manual inside the chest.

Following Lu Changsheng’s gaze, Li Mu also saw the manual inside the chest. He smiled faintly and took out the manual, handing it over to Lu Changsheng.

“This is a thousand taels of gold and a divine power realm martial art.”

Lu Changsheng nodded, taking the manual directly, and quickly skimmed through it. Indeed, it was a divine power realm martial art called the “Raging Waves Divine Power Technique..”
