There was only one main road connecting Qingyuan Prefecture to the outside world, so Yang Cheng wasn't in a hurry to leave. He simply traveled during the day and found a place to cultivate at night, while also studying the gourd.
The gourd left behind by Master Yuyang is definitely an extremely powerful magic weapon, but after checking it with the detection permission, it turns out to be just an ordinary gourd, without any instructions or anything.
Yang Cheng tried to infuse it with his power, but there was no reaction. He tried to refine it with his power, but there was still no reaction. It was as if it was completely unresponsive.
After trying it out, Yang Cheng suddenly realized that he didn't actually need to study how to use the gourd, since Master Yuyang had already shown him how to use it.
This gourd is incredibly sturdy; even Yang Cheng's Seven Kill Sword Manual couldn't destroy it. Moreover, it can hold a lot of things, which alone makes it formidable.
If Master Yuyang could pour all the sword energy he had accumulated over the years into that gourd, why couldn't Yang Cheng pour the power of the Seven Kill Sword Scripture into it in advance?
This gives him a significant advantage in combat, even if it's a one-time use ability. At least it won't deplete his power, and he can replenish it later.
Thinking this, Yang Cheng immediately used the Seven Kill Sword Scripture, condensing the Blood Fiend Sword Qi and pouring it into the gourd.
This gourd is truly extraordinary.
Under normal circumstances, if Yang Cheng were to infuse the power of the Seven Kill Sword Scripture into other magical treasures, the Blood Fiend Sword Qi, being a form of power, would inevitably begin to dissipate slowly.
By the time Yang Cheng wants to make a move, he might not even have 30% of his strength left.
But this gourd is different. The space and time inside seem to be solidified. When sword energy enters it, it does not dissipate, but rather stagnates there.
Because they were on the road, Yang Cheng dared not pour all his strength into the Blood Fiend Sword Qi; he could only pour in half and leave the other half.
In the end, it took Yang Cheng seven days to pour almost all the power he had exerted in three separate uses of the Seven Kill Sword Scripture into the sword energy gourd.
The name "Sword Qi Gourd" was given to this gourd by Yang Cheng, since it contained sword qi from the very beginning and still contains sword qi now.
In fact, the sword energy that could be contained three times the Seven Kill Sword Scripture was not the limit of this sword energy gourd. It seemed to be inexhaustible, and could still hold even more power.
However, sealing it is a big problem.
With so much sword energy poured into the gourd, something must be used to seal the gourd's opening, otherwise the sword energy will simply scatter.
When Master Yuyang used this sword energy gourd before, the seal he used was probably a magic artifact plug he had made himself, and its shape was completely different from the gourd.
Yang Cheng lacked the ability to craft magical artifacts, so he chose to directly use the bloodthirsty power of his Seven Killings Star Lord to seal the gourd's mouth.

Blood Fiend Power and Blood Fiend Sword Qi are of the same attribute, so they can both seal the gourd's mouth.
However, some of the external power is easy to dissipate, so Yang Cheng needs to replenish a portion of the blood evil power every day, although the consumption is not much.
With Yang Cheng's current strength, the Blood Fiend Power can only seal the Seven Kill Sword Scripture's full power three times, which is already the limit. Any more power from the Seven Kill Sword Scripture will erupt and cause a backlash.
After completely dealing with the sword energy gourd, Yang Cheng set off, heading straight for Anqing, the capital of Liang Kingdom, at top speed.
Qingyuan Prefecture was located in a remote area, practically on the edge of the Liang Kingdom, more than two months' journey from the capital, Anqing.
However, given Yang Cheng's speed, he could arrive in about twenty days if he traveled at full speed.
Outside Anqing Prefecture, at Qiuling Ferry.
After crossing the river at Qiulingdu, you will reach Anqing Prefecture, the capital of Liang Kingdom. Because of the turbulent Canglan River in the middle, Anqing Prefecture is considered easy to defend and difficult to attack.
There are only a few gentle ferry crossings along the entire Canglan River, and Qiuling Ferry is one of the largest. Therefore, many merchants, soldiers, and officials had to use Qiuling Ferry to travel to and from the capital.
Yang Cheng saw the width of the Canglan River; he could easily control his power to fly across it using the water's momentum. However, there was no need for it; he didn't want to appear too high-profile in this world.
Moreover, after traveling for so many days, Yang Cheng wanted to rest, so he went directly to Qiulingdu to find a ferry.
At this moment, Yang Cheng was sitting at a tea stall drinking tea when the conversation of several merchants around him caught his attention.
"I heard that the imperial court has defeated the previously invincible Red Turban Army. The Red Turban Army leader, 'Red-Faced Heavenly King' Zu Xiongtu, has been killed, and his trusted strategist, Cui Daoning, has been arrested and is being escorted to the capital."
The Red Turban Rebellion was making such a commotion, but now look what happened—it almost got completely wiped out.
Upon hearing that familiar name, Yang Cheng paused slightly and put down his teacup.
