Unfortunately, there wasn't enough intelligence to investigate at the moment, so he had to put the Soul-Slaying Banner away for the time being.
Finally, the drop of water from the River of Oblivion was released, and a drop of blood-yellow, turbid water floated in mid-air.
The other two weapons were easy to deal with, but this one was a bit more troublesome.
It seems the war priest knew the value of the River of Oblivion and imprinted his own spiritual essence upon it.
Unlike the spiritual imprint on the Soul-Slaying Banner, which was damaged by the Purple Gold Bowl, Zaun alone cannot erase the War Priest's spiritual imprint.
Ultimately, he wasn't very good at mental techniques.
He had tried attacking the marks with weapons like Bai Ming, but unfortunately, it was all ineffective.
Gradually, he realized that what remained on the River of Oblivion was not a simple spiritual imprint, but some kind of mysterious contract that he could not yet understand.
The power of the River of Oblivion is truly too great; he couldn't bear to keep it hidden away, especially now that demons are invading, he couldn't let go of any possibility of increasing his strength.
Suddenly, an idea struck him, and he summoned Moxi.
Moxi's "Farewell to Nanchao" has the function of severing the contract, but it requires special conditions to be met to activate it successfully. If she is willing, her level must be at least greater than or equal to the lower level of the contracting party minus 1 major realm.
In cases where it is not voluntary, her level must be greater than or equal to the realm of one of them.
I don't know how she severed the connection between the golden alms bowl and the monk last time. It seems that the golden alms bowl cooperated on its own.
That purple-gold alms bowl was truly mysterious. It could even damage the War Priest's Soul-Slaying Banner this time. After successfully repairing it, he knew very well how powerful the Soul-Slaying Banner was.
Zuan put aside his distracting thoughts and continued to ponder the question of "parting ways with Nanchao".
Unfortunately, the water of the River of Oblivion clearly lacks sentience and cannot cooperate as actively as the purple-gold alms bowl.
I don't know whether the determination of erasing the spiritual imprint on the River of Oblivion is voluntary or involuntary.
Originally, it was definitely involuntary, but since the war priest was dead, he could no longer express his opposition, and his spiritual imprint would certainly be affected to some extent.
Even if it were voluntary, the gap between Moxi and the War Priest would be far more than just one major realm.
Wait, leveling up the "Farewell to Nanchao" skill can also affect the judgment. Each level increases the judgment of Moxi by 0.2 major realms.
If you reach the maximum level, you can increase the judgment of 2 major realms.
He had spent almost all his money and resources during this period, but it was still effective. Daji and Moxi had both reached the peak of the ninth rank.
If we add three more major stages, it might be possible to determine success.
He closed his eyes and studied the keyboard system for a while, quickly figuring out what materials Moxi needed to upgrade her skills.
Like Daji, basic Gathering Yuan Pills and silver coins used as a medium are definitely needed;
In addition, two special materials are needed: glistening dew and fragments of a bronze wine vessel.
When Zuan first saw it, he was delighted. The rain and dew and the wine cup seemed to be common and easily obtained things.
However, after carefully reading the information, I realized I was overthinking it.
The crystal-clear dew is not something you can simply collect clean rainwater from when it rains. Rather, it refers to a huge wine pool that King Jie of Xia built for his beloved sister to please her.
The wine in the wine pool was brewed using a precious type of crystal-clear dew.
Even in the Xia Dynasty, glistening dew was an extremely rare treasure. Where could I find it now?
There are also fragments of bronze wine vessels, which were special wine vessels used by King Jie of Xia and his concubine Moxi when they entertained their ministers. Only this vessel could hold the special wine in the wine pool.
Zuan couldn't help but mutter to himself, both ingredients are related to alcohol, this woman really is a drunkard.
However, he immediately had a headache. Even if he returned to the Xia Dynasty Secret Realm again, he might not be able to find the two items.
Suddenly, a brilliant idea flashed into my mind, and I brought up a long-dormant subsystem in the keyboard system—the shop system.
In the early years, because the items inside were too expensive and far less cost-effective than what he could get through other channels, and because there were some strange and unusual items whose uses he didn't know, he basically never used it.
He rummaged through the various goods and sure enough found the "crystal dew" and the "fragment of a bronze wine vessel".
Bronze wine vessel fragments are relatively cheap, costing only 1000 rage points per fragment; however, upgrading skills requires a larger quantity of these fragments.
Crystalline dew is expensive, costing a lot for a single drop, but fortunately, the demand for it is relatively small.
Zaun took stock of his current rage points, and since he still had some left, he bought 62 fragments of the Bronze Wine Cup, since he would only need Crystal Dew after upgrading his skill to level 6.
Feeling the unique texture of the bronze wine vessel fragment in his hand, Zuan was somewhat dazed. Who created this keyboard system? It was amazing that it could hide such a physical object inside.
Considering Mi Li's vague statements, he realized that even the awakening of this so-called keyboard system within him was probably not a coincidence.
I don't know who wants to control my destiny, but now all I can do is strive to become stronger!
He quickly invested various resources into improving Moxi's "Farewell to Nanchao" skill. Fortunately, he had received two sums of money from Bi Linglong and Liu Ning before, otherwise he wouldn't even have enough silver to improve the skill now.
Soon, Moxi's "Farewell to Nanchao" skill leveled up to level 6, which consumed a total of 48 Gathering Yuan Pills, 62 fragments of bronze wine cups, and two silver coins.
The reason it stopped at level 6 is that Zuan discovered that if she wanted to advance further, Moxi's own realm had to break through to the Grandmaster level.
Hoping for a lucky break, he sent Moxi to try and cut off the mark on the River of Oblivion. As expected, she failed the test.
It seems the only option is to raise Moxi to Grandmaster level first.
The reason we were stuck here before was that, in addition to having almost exhausted all our resources, we were also missing a special material – the Mystic Golden Silkworm!
Normally, cultivators of different elements in the world need different materials when breaking through to the Grandmaster level. For example, fire-element cultivators need Flying Fire Glazed Glass, while metal-element cultivators need Cat's Eye Golden Pearl...
Daji should be fire-elemental, and Moxi should be metal-elemental, but the materials they need to break through to the Grandmaster level are completely different from those of ordinary people.
For example, in addition to the materials such as the Rainbow Secret Stone and Rainbow Light Thunder Jade Fox Inner Core that were used for levels one to nine, Mo Xi also needs a special material called the Mysterious Light Golden Silkworm.
The silk spun by this silkworm is like golden thread; when woven into satin, it has a mysterious sheen and is incomparably beautiful.
In addition, the tearing sound was like metal clashing, and back then, Mo Xi's favorite thing was tearing silk, as this sound brought her more pleasure than ordinary silk.
What a spendthrift woman!
He had previously asked the Embroidered-Robe Envoy to help him investigate, and they did find clues about this item.
Legend has it that decades ago someone saw a golden silkworm near Qiuchi that was very similar to the one he described.
No further information is available, because Qiu Chi is a place beyond the reach of the imperial court—it is the headquarters of the Demonic Cult!
