After returning to their residence, when Menglin took out the crimson dagger, Old Lightning and Dian Qiang were both excited.
On one hand, Old Lightning and Dian Qiang were fire-type martial artists. Other than the fact that they yearned for the crimson dagger, there was another important reason.
"Fire Shadow Lightning Thorn!"
The instant Old Lightning saw Meng Lin take out the scarlet dagger from the receiving stone, his face was filled with shock.
"Fire Shadow Lightning Thorn?"
Meng Lin was flabbergasted. Why did Old Lightning cry out in alarm? Could it be that the other party recognized this divine dagger?
"Ah?" Dian Qiang was also curious and looked at Old Lightning.
Amidst his astonishment, Old Lightning took a while to regain his senses. He took the crimson dagger from Meng Lin's hand and examined it closely. Then, he confirmed, "That's right, this is the Flaming Lightning Dagger!
The famous Fire Shadow Lightning Thorn! "
"Uncle, could it be that your dagger has a history?" Because of their close relationship, Menglin called Old Lightning uncle.
"Yes!"
Nodding, Old Lightning explained, "I didn't expect Menglin to be so lucky to obtain the Fire Shadow Lightning Thorn!"
"This Fire Shadow Lightning Thorn …" In Old Lightning's memory, he described the origins of the crimson dagger in detail.
It turned out that this divine dagger was a very famous divine weapon a thousand years ago.
The main reason why it was so famous was because of the owner of the dagger.
A thousand years ago, the Lightning Family of Wufang City, one of the 36 Great Paths of the Sacred City, produced a super genius!
In less than a hundred years, the super genius of the Lightning Family, Dian Wuchang, advanced to the Transcendent Realm.
Dian Wuchang, who had advanced to the Transcendent Realm, used the Fire Shadow Rat's shadow tooth as the main material and asked a master blacksmith to refine a divine weapon dagger.
Dian Wuchang, who was skilled in assassination, had made a name for himself with this divine dagger. Not only had he killed Transcendent realm Martial Marquises who were above his cultivation level, he had also killed a terrifying Transcendent realm Beast King.
Therefore, the divine weapon dagger in his hand was known as the "Fire Shadow Lightning Thorn"!
Unfortunately, Dian Wuchang, who could have become the backbone of the Lightning Family, died in the Thousand Leaves Forest.
"Uncle, since the Fire Shadow Lightning Thorn belongs to the Lightning Family, I'll give it to you!" After hearing the origin of the dagger, Menglin made a decision...
"No!" Old Lightning, who had his hands on the dagger, wanted to give it back to Menglin.
After all, a divine weapon was far too valuable. Although he had been helping Meng Lin, there was a reason behind it.
"Uncle!" Meng Lin sincerely looked at Old Lightning and said, "Don't refuse!
First, this is's Fire Shadow Lightning thorn is a divine weapon weapon is fire!
Secondly, this is a relic of the Dian Clan, and I only spent 2,000 high-grade Star Stones on it. It's nothing!
Besides, I haven't thanked you for taking care of me and Yun Ke. "
"This?" Although Old Lightning was moved, he was still embarrassed.
Although he was a branch of the Lightning Family and was assigned to manage the Summer Martial Arts Academy, he had always been a marginal figure in the Lightning Family. Due to his poor aptitude, even if he reached the Divine Realm, it was all thanks to his late father!
"Father!
Don't refuse! "Dian Qiang didn't think so much.
"Alright!"
Old Lightning, who was quite emotional, put away the Fire Shadow Lightning Thorn. He wanted to say something but stopped. He wanted to say his suspicions about Menglin's background, but when he thought of the twists and turns, he held back.
Old Lightning planned to find a chance to confirm it before telling Menglin.
Menglin, who had settled down, didn't plan to return to Da Hua Village for the next few days.
The next day, Menglin, under Dian Qiang's guidance, began to familiarize himself with the vast Five Direction City.
Around noon, the two were already far away from Bo Shen District and arrived at a more prosperous area in the outer city.
After seeing an extremely tall and majestic stone pagoda, Menglin and Dian Qiang couldn't help but go over.
As they approached, they realized there was a plaque on the stone pagoda!
Hanging Wish Pagoda!
It was a very strange name.
Moreover, Menglin saw many people entering and exiting this towering and majestic ancient pagoda.
After asking around a little, Menglin and Dian Qiang immediately became very interested in the Hanging Wish Pagoda.
In the outer city of Five Direction City, the Hanging Wish Pagoda was quite famous. It was similar to a place for bounty missions.
Within the Hanging Wish Pagoda, there were all kinds of novel bounty missions. Any warrior could enter and take a look at those bounties.
Once a bounty mission was completed, one would receive a huge reward.
After all, any mission that could be accepted into the Hanging Wish Pagoda was not simple!
On the other hand, if one wanted to place a bounty, one could register in the Hanging Wish Pagoda. Based on the amount of the bounty, a certain amount of deposit could be given and a bounty mission could be issued.
The Hanging Wish Pagoda had a total of seven floors!
The first floor dealt with affairs. The real bounty missions would start from the second floor.
After entering, Menglin realized that not just any Tom, Dick, or Harry could take a look at the bounty missions.
Even the lowest bounty missions on the second floor of the Hanging Wish Pagoda were quite difficult. Ordinary people could not complete them at all.
Therefore, to enter the second floor of the Hanging Wish Pagoda, one had to pay 100 high-grade Star Stones as an entrance fee.
After hearing this, Menglin was somewhat flabbergasted!
It was hard for him to imagine how many people entered the Hanging Wish Pagoda and even higher floors every day. Calculating in this way, the Hanging Wish Pagoda was simply a treasure bowl.
After Dian Qiang learned of the rules of the Hanging Wish Pagoda, he obviously had no interest.
However, Menglin had an idea. He paid 100 high-grade Star Stones and entered the second floor of the Hanging Wish Pagoda alone.
However, when Menglin browsed through the information on the mission plates on the second floor of the Hanging Wish Pagoda, he was stunned.
"Seeking the Smiling Scale!"
"Seeking the information of the True Wheel Wood Fire!"
"Seeking the Great Artificer that smelts the Sealing Moon Heavenly Wolf Fang!"
"Seeking the Earth Attribute Divine Weapon of Middle Grade and above!"
…
After reading the bounty information, Menglin felt his scalp go numb.
Among them, there were some items that he had never even heard of. However, the ones that he knew were all extremely rare items.
For example, the Smiling Scale was an extremely rare item. It was the reverse scale of the Archaic Descendant, the Smiling Dragon!
What kind of joke was this? Only an adult Smiling Dragon would have a mature reverse scale, and an adult Smiling Dragon was a Transcendent Realm Beast King.
Furthermore, it was a Draconic Archaic Descendant Beast King. Ordinary low-level Transcendent Realm human Martial Marquises would avoid it like the plague. Wanting to slay a dragon and obtain its reverse scale was practically as difficult as ascending to the heavens.
Menglin, who had taken it for granted, no longer had the desire to browse through these bounty plates. Those 100 high-grade Star Stones had been wasted.
However, when Menglin was about to leave the second floor of the Hanging Wish Pagoda, he inadvertently saw the information on one of the bounty plates and couldn't help but stop.
"Seeking a Star Bead, a Star Mark that is over 1,000 years old, or a method to dissolve the Border Fiend!"
Instantly, Menglin was stunned.
He had once fused with a Star Bead, but it was gone. He knew that Old Man Dian had a 100-year Star Mark, but a 1,000-year Star Mark was hard to find.
What Menglin truly cared about was the Border Fiend!
