Wu Guang wasn't lying; it really is an empty mountain!
Lin Che had already landed on the mountain peak and used his spiritual sense to search, but he really didn't find anything suspicious. There wasn't even a trace of spirit beasts or ferocious beasts; everything had been taken away.
Judging from the smell, this place was indeed once a place where spirit beasts were kept.
But this isn't right.
Based on his experience, Lin Che knew that a place with such a dazzling light must contain treasure. Since his men had searched all day and found nothing, he had no choice but to come himself.
Even if it means digging three feet into the ground, we must find it.
Whew!!
Holding the Emperor's Banner, Lin Che ordered the crowd, "You all retreat!"
"Yes!" The cultivators accepted the order and flew away to watch from a distance. They also wanted to know how Lin Che would make his move.
Seeing them fly away, Lin Che swept the Human Emperor Banner in his hand, setting up a huge array around them. With this array, even if a terrifying beast was hiding in this mountain, it would not be able to fly out.
Lin Che stood still, secretly channeling his power, and gently lifted his right foot, stomping it hard on the ground.
Boom!!
The entire massive mountain emitted a terrifying roar, and the ground and the mountain itself began to crack open. The enormous cracks, like lightning, tore wildly into the ground.
That's a majestic mountain! This kind of mountain is different from the mountains outside. This is a mountain unique to the ancestral city. Even if a great demon king were to fight or compete on the mountain, it would be impossible to destroy it.
But now, Lin Che simply lifted his foot and trampled an entire mountain peak, including the huge city on it where spirit beasts were kept.
As the mountain collapsed, the surrounding cultivators were all stunned, their eyes wide open.
Many of them had never witnessed Lin Che's methods; they only heard about him killing Emperor Wu from those around them. Since Wu Guang and the elders and protectors had all submitted to Lin Che, they followed suit.
Now, we finally see Lin Che's terrifying strength.
A casual kick is this terrifying; if that kick were to hit them, they would probably be reduced to ashes before it even landed.
That's terrifying!
Whoosh!
Just then, the mountain collapsed, and a long black shadow flew into the air with a whoosh.
Lin Che had already noticed it, and with one hand, he grabbed the long thing in mid-air.
But to Lin Che's surprise, the thing broke free from his invisible hand and continued to fly forward.
"Hmm? This is interesting!"
Lin Che was surprised that with his strength, he couldn't even grab this thing with a casual grab. It looked to be about the size and length of his arm, so why did it have such great strength?
Buzz!
The Emperor's Banner fluttered in mid-air, blocking the dark figure.
Lin Che remained calm and reached out again. A golden hand enveloped the long black shadow and pulled it back in front of him.
Once I got my hands on it, I saw that it was covered in mud, long and looked like a broken piece of a war spear. When I probed it with my spiritual sense, it was all black, something that blocked my spiritual sense.
The strange, towering light emanated from this object, which was nearly a meter tall.
"What is this thing? It's quite strange."
Lin Che exerted sudden force, crushing all the soil on the outside and finally revealing what was inside.
The object inside wasn't large; it could be held in one hand. It looked like a stone, yet also like wood. The material was extremely strange; even Lin Che, who had read so many books and possessed modern memories, didn't know what it was.
"System, what is this?"
【bite--】
[The system has detected that the host has acquired the Inexhaustible Wood. The *Shenyi Jing* (Classic of Strange Things), specifically the *Nanhuang Jing* (Classic of the Southern Wilderness), records: "In the Southern Wilderness, there is a volcano, within which grows the Inexhaustible Wood, which burns day and night, and is not extinguished by violent storms or torrential rains."]
[Inexhaustible wood might be used to forge the most powerful weapon!]
"This thing is used to forge supreme imperial weapons! The handle for the Heaven-Opening Axe is here! Haha!"
I was worried about the handle of the Heaven-Opening Axe. Although the system said I could reforge it, it would be best to have a longer handle. The material is just too good.
really.
I am a person with great fortune; whatever I lack, it automatically appears.
Next step: Reforge the Heaven-Opening Axe!
Lin Che decisively said, "Pass down the order: search vigorously for the secret manual on the way of the axe! We must find it!"
"yes!"
Lin Che is no longer worried about whether he can wield the Heaven-Opening Axe. He'll focus on reforging it first, and one day he'll be able to lift it. If he still can't find the ultimate cultivation manual, at least he can spread the news and let those cultivators who have mastered it come and snatch it.
Since someone is trying to steal it, they must have cultivated the ultimate techniques. That makes things simple: capture them and extract a confession through torture. The ultimate techniques will then be readily available.
"You keep searching, and report to me as soon as you make any progress."
Lin Che gave a word of advice, then stepped into the void. The Emperor's Banner in the sky spun rapidly, and with a whoosh, it teleported him away.
The next moment.
Lin Che reappeared in Wudi City.
The Heaven-Opening Axe is still here; he came back to forge it again.
Re-enter the shattered Wudi City, and then enter the sacred mountain.
"Greetings, King Lin!" A group of cultivators guarding the area immediately knelt down and paid their respects upon seeing Lin Che's arrival.
During the Great Campaign, Lin Che would not make his subordinates kneel; he would abolish all sorts of cumbersome rituals. However, these rituals remained in place among the Demon Clan. Given the current mindset and habits of the Demon Clan, making them kneel in reverence was the best way to govern them.
If you treat them with excessive politeness, they will not only fail to appreciate it, but will also think that you are no longer capable and that it is time for them to rebel.
"Um!"
Lin Che gave a simple reply and walked into the sacred mountain.
Upon reaching the summit, the Heaven-Opening Axe, resembling scrap metal, remained in its original spot, motionless.
"System—we are preparing to reforge the Heaven-Opening Axe."
Lin Che is now surrounded by the fortune of the Ten Thousand Demon Clan, so he is not afraid of consuming the human fortune in his body. Even if he loses the human fortune, he can absorb some more when he returns to the Dao Seeking Academy.
With a wave of his hand, all the materials were laid out.
At the same time, the piece of inexhaustible wood was also taken out.
The moment he took out the Inexhaustible Wood, the Heaven-Opening Axe actually moved slightly, as if it was quite satisfied and understood that it was about to be reforged and see the light of day again.
As the system's voice sounded, the human race's fortune was also extracted.
Whew!
The blazing flames of the Human Emperor began to burn around him, and Lin Che's hand, covered in flames, gripped the Heaven-Opening Axe.
"Burn it!"
"Merge!"
Suddenly, all the materials flew over, which looked a bit chaotic, but in reality, under Lin Che's countless thoughts, everything was just right.
"Begin, reforge the Heaven-Opening Axe!"
