Chapter Forty-Three: Overwhelming the Army and Slaying the G

all the way down to the fruit stand.His eight braids were neatly parted down the middle.Qingqi tree seemed to have a grudge against him, and met him with a sullen face.But Qing Bajie lightly dodged,...The Book of Famous Artifacts ranks the most renowned artifacts in the world. Each volume only lists the top one hundred.

Actually, throughout history, there has never been a name instrument ranking list that is both accurate and universally accepted.

But because of its influence to some extent, such an existence has to be there.

Of course, the right to speak lies in the hands of powerful countries like Jing, Qin, Chu, and Qi. But at the specific level of each country, the ranking varies.

The ranking of artifacts depends not only on the artifact itself but also on the wielder.

In most cases, the world's top powerhouses exist as a deterrent and rarely engage in life-or-death battles. Even before a true confrontation, it is difficult for them to determine who would win against whom.

Every country's ranking of national treasures will inevitably favor its own strong players, the only difference being the degree to which they are favored.

For example, in the list of famous weapons from Qi State, Jiang Mengxiong's Fu Jun Sha Jiang ranks first. It is a pair of knuckle dusters, one called Fu Jun and the other Sha Jiang.

“Recovering Army Killing Generals” refers to the annihilation of an army and the death of its general. It is said that Jiang Mengxiong used this name to warn himself. There is also the meaning of bringing misfortune to the enemy.

Qin and Jing nations were mostly like this as well. The top ranking was always the strongest warriors from one's own nation.

The most outrageous thing is the "Top Ten Treasures of Chu," where nine out of the top ten spots are taken up by items from Chu itself. It's completely lacking in credibility. However, it's very popular domestically.

It is currently generally believed that the catalog of famous artifacts compiled by the State of Jing is relatively fair. However, it is not recognized by many people either.

The catalog of famous instruments mentioned by Lian Que naturally refers to the version from the state of Qi. Judging by the ranking of famous instruments within Qi itself, it's still quite reliable.

Changxiangsi, freshly released, is indeed a quality product. But it can only be said that it has already qualified for the list. To truly make the list, it depends on how its owner performs.

For a weaponsmith, the final resting place of their crafted weaponry is also the pinnacle of their pride.

Chang'xiangsi was taken to the ancestral hall by Lian Zhueping, the head of the Lian clan, and enshrined there. Three days later, a grand ancestor worship ceremony was held.

It wasn't until the ceremony was complete, with the winding, knot tying, and scabbard fitting, that Lianshi finally finished this renowned blade.

During this time, Jiang Wang could only wait at Lian Que's house.

Although they couldn't remember what happened to them in the Heavenly Mansion Secret Realm, their personalities clicked and they forged a bond together through their shared experience of creating the Long Xiangsi. They had truly become friends.

Jiang Wang also learned from Lian Que why the Lian family was making such a big fuss about Chang Xiangsi.

That was because the Lian family hadn't produced another famous artifact in the past fifty years.

In the world's five holy lands of forging, the Liang family is now ranked last. It's even teetering on the brink, about to be kicked out of the list of forging master holy lands.

And the birth of Changxiangsi solidified such a position.

Jiang Wang originally thought that for such a holy land of blacksmithing, forging a famous weapon was something that should be taken for granted.

But in reality, the birth of a renowned artifact requires perfect timing, location, and people. It's difficult to force it.

This time, for the casting of Chang Xiangsi, Lian Que, in order to repay the favor, almost poured out everything, taking out the most precious materials.

He is the only elite descendant of the Lian family in this generation who can control his life card. After years of accumulation, he has brought it all together.

During the forging process, they utilized the ancient furnace, a relic that each member of the Lian clan could only use three times in their lifetime. This sword furnace, enduring through centuries without extinguishing its flame, was a guarantee of unparalleled quality.

During the forging process, both the sword master and the blacksmith's spiritual will remained steadfast, imbued within the weapon.

All of these things ultimately led to the creation of longing.

Almost impossible to replicate.

This time, the Lian family held a grand ancestral worship ceremony, with a huge presence. People from all over the region came to participate.

Even Chong Xuan Sheng himself sent someone over in a flustered manner to deliver congratulations.

Chang Xiangsi is Jiang Wang's general.

Jiang Wang is now on their side.

Chang Xiangsi's influence grew stronger, and so did Jiang Wangming's fame. Meanwhile, his Chongxuan victories made him even more imposing.

Many times, fame and fortune are tied together.

In the midst of his arduous competition with Chong Xuan Zun, there might be those who originally leaned towards Chong Xuan Zun but, swayed by this formidable aura, ended up siding with Chong Xuan Sheng.

Two tall trees competing for survival space, people often can't see the intricate root system underground, but only the lush canopy above.

Jiang Wang tried to understand these things. The red dust tempers the heart, this is also a kind of cultivation.

Fengxian County is located in the northwest of Qi territory.

Zhangjia Town is a small town in Fenxian County.

>

There was an old master surnamed Zhang in town. His life was fairly decent, but only decent for this small town.

Looking forward hundreds of years, the Zhang family was naturally a wealthy and influential clan.

Not to mention a small town like Zhangjia Town, even Phoenix County is ruled by the Zhang family. Even in the entire Qi Kingdom, they are quite influential.

But times change. The later generations of the Zhang family lacked talent and gradually declined.

Industry disperses and is dispersed again, power is divided and divided again. In the end, it can only return to the ancestral home, back to this small town where people surnamed Zhang have lived for generations.

Back then, the illustrious Zhang family of Qí state, known for their wealth and power, was reduced to a mere handful of descendants.

As for the neighbors and townspeople, our families have been intertwined for generations beyond count. It's practically like we're all one big family.

The Zhang family of Fengxian produced a renowned member in this generation: Zhang Yong.

This child was an only child for three generations. Although his family wasn't well-off, they were very doting on him, treating him like a precious jewel.

However, this child wasn't spoiled. Instead, he was kind and grateful. It's just that because the elders protected him too much, his personality became a bit introverted and shy.

The Zhang family has a quota for a Heavenly Treasury Secret Realm, passed down from their ancestors. Now, there are few left.

Such a precious quota, the Zhang family wasn't without people daring to take a gamble. But for several generations, the most outstanding offspring who went into the Heavenly Treasury Secret Realm never returned alive.

The Zhang family has declined to this state, and this is one of the reasons.

The Heavenly Treasure Secret Realm is so dangerous, and now that the Zhang family has been a single-line lineage for generations, they naturally dare not take risks.

What people didn't expect was that Zhang Yongping, who was usually introverted and shy, had a mind of his own.

He actually left a letter and secretly ran off to Tiansfu City!

Old Mrs. Zhang's eyes were about to well up with tears.

Zhang's father sighed all day long, and Zhang's mother wept in sorrow, but neither could change the fact that their only child had run off to take a dangerous risk. Perhaps the Zhang family bloodline would end with him.

But what astonished everyone even more was that Zhang Yong miraculously became the victor of the Heavenly Treasure Secret Realm. He successfully reserved a spot in the Divine Ability Inner Palace!

As soon as the news of Tianfu's Secret Realm came out, it spread here.

Not only did officials from the town come to offer congratulations, but even the city lord sent a delegation with gifts. There was even an official letter of praise from the county government!

Zhang's house was instantly bustling with people, and the Zhang family wept tears of joy.

Zhang's father even ambitiously proposed a plan to restore the family's reputation.

>

The whole of Zhangjia Town, and indeed the entire city, was waiting for Zhang Yong's return.

>

When he returns home in fine attire, his homecoming will be glorious.

However, it was just two days before Zhang Yong's return.

Something terrifying happened.

The entire Zhang family was exterminated overnight.

Every member of the family, including servants, totaling twenty-three people, were all killed.

Even a chicken or a dog couldn't survive.

Even when experts from the city came to investigate, they couldn't find any results.

Unknown cause, unknown process, unknown perpetrator.
