Sakura Shogunate, Heian Kyo.

After Tokugawa Shinji returned with Li Guanqi, they parted ways in front of the Tokugawa family residence.

Li Guanqi booked a room at a random inn, closed the door and sat inside. He took out two golden stones from his space necklace, holding one in each hand.

Mu Lingshi!

One of them was naturally given by Shinji Tokugawa, and the other was a simulator reward.

"Buzz——"

As Li Guanqi released his spiritual power and echoed with the two Mu Ling Stones, the two golden stones also began to shine with an icy blue spiritual light - the same color as Li Guanqi's spiritual power.

Mu Lingshi is a seven-star resource that can help seven-star conjurers increase their spiritual strength.

But this sentence does not mean that it can only be used by seven-star conjurers. In fact, the effect of Mu Lingshi is very mild. It is subtle, moisturizing things and silently helping people to increase their spiritual strength.

This is also the origin of the word "Mu".

Even a one-level magician can use Mu Lingshi to increase the strength of his spiritual power, but it is too wasteful.

Because the Mu Ling Stone is a one-time use item, when a one-level magician uses the Mu Ling Stone, it can only be upgraded to the limit of the one-level level, and then the Mu Ling Stone will be scrapped.

Mu Lingshi is indeed a good thing. Due to its characteristics, using it to enhance spiritual power will not cause phenomena such as spiritual power spreading and violent vibrations within a few hundred meters after the improvement is completed.

It is precisely because of this that Li Guanqi can use it in this small inn.

"Buzz——"

Soon, the golden light emitted by the two Mu Lingshi flickered for a while, and then completely lost its luster.

In Li Guanqi's body, the spiritual energy fluctuations also experienced subtle changes, but they did not spread outwards. Instead, they quickly became calm and stabilized their current state.

[Spiritual power: lv.69→lv.71! (71.6)]

Two Mu Lingshi, upgraded to level 2, is pretty good.

"Owner!"

At this time, Shunkong's voice sounded in Li Guanqi's mind, "I will help you correct and restore your memory now."

"Um."

Li Guanqi nodded, "Let's get started."

Soon, his eyes became wandering, but he regained his composure after a few seconds, "So that's it...it turned out that I replaced the 'meaning' in the puzzle with the 'end', and that's how I misled Shinji Tokugawa to do what he did."

Made the wrong choice."

"Master, let's go back!"

At this time, Shunkong's slightly excited voice sounded again, "I have locked the space coordinates of that place, let's go back and get Ares's divine armor! That shielding mechanism that has blocked space for so many years

, the divine power is almost exhausted. It can block the Jiugong level, but it cannot block me who is also a divine weapon!"

"Shunkong, since I met you, you have provided me with so much help."

Li Guanqi stood up with a smile, "Let's go then!"

"Buzz——"

As soon as he finished speaking, a space crack appeared beside him, and twisted colorful brilliance flickered in it.

Li Guanqi stepped into it in one step.

…

…

There was a sudden spin.

When Li Guanqi regained his sight, what came into view was the puzzle stone slab engraved with "What is the meaning of life?"

He looked around, and behind him was the vast arena.

Back.

The ruins of the gods, the first level of space secrets in the ruins of the castle... And the Ares divine armor is hidden in the second level of space secrets behind the second puzzle stone tablet.

"Bang!"

Li Guanqi withdrew his gaze, looked at the puzzle stone in front of him, stretched out his hand and pushed it to the ground, breaking it into pieces.

"boom!"

Golden light explodes!

The golden light that erupted from the broken stone slabs gradually gathered into a portal filled with golden light after a burst of flashes.

"Ah...I smell the smell of broken armor."

The voice of the magic knife sounded in Li Guanqi's mind.

"Is your relationship with him good or bad?"

Li Guanqi asked with a smile.

"All of them."

Demon Sword replied lazily, "The relationship between the God of Death and his master is not bad, but he and I...well, that's it."

"Old enemies."

Shunkong interjected, "The first master of Ares was a guy named the God of War. His combat power was considered to be among the top ten among the gods. However, every time the God of Killing and the God of War faced off, the result was basically the same.

There is only one kind.

The God of Death cannot break the God of War's defense.

The God of War, on the other hand, could not touch the clothes of the God of Death at all.

Among the gods, some people use the metaphors of 'the sharpest spear' and 'the hardest shield' to describe the God of Death and the God of War, and some people joke that the combination of these two people is destined to ascend to the throne of the God King."

"The God of War's self-created law of "controlling the sky" is too strong. Combined with Ares's defensive ability, it is like a turtle shell without any flaws."

Demon Sword said gloomily.

"The Law of Heaven Control?"

Li Guanqi was stunned, "What are you talking about, the Law of Elements, the Law of Killing, the Law of Poison, etc. I can still understand what the Law of Heaven Control is like?"

"A law completely discovered and created by the God of War himself."

Shunkong's voice deepened, "At least there are traces of the killing law of the God of Death. It is a law that is forced to be killed, but the law of controlling the sky... No one knows how to understand this law, because it is too abstract.

But the effect of this law is the ultimate defense, a defense that even the attack power of the God of Death cannot break."

"The God of War is a genius."

Demon Sword also agreed.

"oh……"

Li Guanqi nodded lightly, then couldn't help shaking his head and laughing, "So, the reason why the God of Death and the God of War are called the 'sharpest spear' and 'the hardest shield' by the gods is mainly because of themselves, not

Relying on artifacts?"

"Hahahaha! Of course!"

Upon hearing this, Shunkong burst into laughter.

"That's right."

At this time, Xiaoxue's soft and waxy voice sounded, and she also participated in the discussion, "Master, you have to understand an important point. In this world, there are gods first, and then there are artifacts. The gods themselves are the core, and artifacts are just appendages. Let

What makes people become gods is always themselves, and what makes weapons become divine weapons is also the gods themselves.”

"Boy, you have your own path to walk, and you have your own artifact to build."

There was a hint of smile in Demon Sword's voice, "Whether it's me or Ares, or Shunkong, or Xiaoxue, in fact, none of us are completely suitable for you.

I was born when the God of Death asked a master craftsman to cast the artifact after he became a god. I participated in the entire process from beginning to end and used the Law of Killing to cultivate the embryo of the artifact at all times before it was finally cast.

Therefore, only by entering the Palace of Killing and becoming the God of Killing can I exert my strongest power.

Because I, Demon Sword Lumo, am truly complete when I am attached to the Slaughter Palace.

The same goes for God of War.

If you don't enter the Yutian Shrine, you won't be able to exert the full power of that set of divine armor, and you won't be able to activate it to its strongest defensive state.

This is also the reason why gods rarely seize other people's artifacts, and in most cases they only take one artifact from another.

Because even if they are taken away, they are only used for collection, or just for freshness.

The gods need to be perfectly adapted to the artifact and let the artifact enter its perfect form in order to achieve true 11>2.

Back then... well... Ye Kui back then... was actually in such a situation.

Except for the divine craftsman, no gods were involved in her birth. In other words, she could not resonate with a certain law palace, nor could she achieve a perfect adaptation with any god, nor could she enter a perfect form.

Nature is the weakest artifact.

Therefore, in the mortal stage, master, of course, the more artifacts you have, the better.
To be continued...
