Chapter 150: Strange Objects in the Underworld
"Old Liu, how to open up this Underworld Sea?" Song Changming asked the key point.
"Some people are born with the Underworld Sea open and are talented, but most people have the Underworld Sea blocked and their spirits are wandering. If you want to open the Underworld Sea the day after tomorrow, you can only use some strange things." Liu Dingsheng said.
"Strange thing?" Song Changming was stunned.
"Yes, this is the first difficulty in practicing martial arts!" Liu Dingsheng shook his head.
As soon as Song Changming heard this, he knew that this strange thing that could open the underworld was probably hard-won and extremely difficult to obtain.
He couldn't help but look at Liu Dingsheng, waiting for the next words.
"Do you know why those hidden sects are so prosperous and their masters are passed down endlessly?" Liu Dingsheng asked.
Song Changming's eyes flashed, and he said thoughtfully: "Is it possible that the achievement is related to this strange thing that opened the sea of underworld?"
"Well, this is one of the main reasons." Liu Dingsheng stroked his beard and nodded: "You should have met the young master named Li before."
"Isn't that outrageous?" Song Changming quickly realized who Liu Dingsheng was referring to and nodded.
"It's Li Pu." Liu Ziwen corrected him with sweat on his forehead.
Liu Dingsheng smiled and said: "The Fengxue Villa behind it stands in the Snow Valley in the north. There is a ten-thousand-year-old ice soul flower in the village, which can produce three to nine ice soul seeds every year.
As long as you swallow one, you will have a high chance of opening the Underworld Sea. These ice souls are usually used by Fengxue Villa for their own use and are rarely given to outsiders. "
"In the entire Dahan Dynasty, there are only a few dozen such rare objects known to the outside world. Basically, they are occupied and supported by the hidden sects and the imperial court. Others want to get a share from these hidden sects. It is quite difficult to open the underworld with strange objects.”
When Song Changming heard this, he instantly understood what it meant.
The number of common strange objects that can open the underworld is limited, and they are basically controlled by these top forces, one giant, and they have almost a complete monopoly.
Even if outsiders have the connections to get a share from these top forces, they will definitely have to pay a high price.
After all, there are only so many rare items produced every year, and things are more valuable when they are rare.
"Is there no other way?" Song Changming asked with a frown.
He has no way to find those hidden masters, and he thinks that he doesn't have any treasures that the other party likes in exchange for equal value.
"You can also go to the wild places to explore on your own. Those hidden sects are occupied by rare flowers and treasure trees that can continuously produce such rare objects. In the wild, such rare objects will also appear randomly. If you are lucky, you can encounter them. ." Liu Dingsheng said.
"Are you betting on luck?" Song Changming admitted that his luck was not very good, and such aimless exploration was really annoying.
Moreover, the wilderness is very dangerous. Even if he is an extreme martial artist, he cannot say that he is 100% safe if he is not careful.
Seeing Song Changming's troubled look, Liu Dingsheng took a sip of tea to moisten his throat and continued.
"If you don't want to find it, then you can only fight."
"What kind of dispute?" Song Changming secretly thought that there was indeed another way.
“In the past, those hidden sects would hold a martial arts conference every three or two years, inviting powerful warriors from all over the world to participate.
Every time, they would take out the extra rare items from the Underworld as rewards for the winner of the tournament. "Liu Dingsheng didn't show off and said directly.
"Mr. Liu, do you want me to participate in the martial arts conference held by these hidden sects?" Song Changming immediately understood what Liu Dingsheng meant by fighting.
"Yes, but it is worth mentioning that the number of such conferences held by the hidden sects has become less and less. At present, the only one that has been steadily held is the Peach Festival held every three years in Yuxu Cave.
If you want to go there then, I can take you there. Liu Dingsheng said, his expression a little more reminiscing.
He had also participated in this peach event back then.
It's a pity that there were so many heroes at the event, and strong men from all over the world flocked to the event. In the end, although his performance was quite impressive, he was not really the final winner.
Of course, I couldn't get the strange object of flat peach from Yuxu Cave and open the sea of underworld.
This is also a big regret in his heart.
Liu Dingsheng told Song Changming his personal experience in the past as a reference.
When he lost that year, Liu Dingsheng was already an extreme martial artist, which shows how intense the competition for such rare objects was.
There are people with outstanding talents from all over the world. They have all reached the extreme level of physical training. In order to be able to enter a new realm of martial arts and Qi refining, they gathered together by chance.
It is no exaggeration to say that this is a martial arts event.
If it were any other occasion, it would be extremely difficult to invite so many talented experts and wizards.
After hearing this, Song Changming also fell into thinking.
Either travel around and find it yourself, or use your strength to compete with others.
There were only these two paths before him.
"If I participate in the martial arts conference, Mr. Liu thinks that with my current strength, what chance do I have of getting that rare object?" Song Changming suddenly asked. "I won't say 100%, but the chance is not small." Liu Dingsheng estimated.
Although he was very optimistic about Song Changming's strength, he did not insist on his words.
He knew very well that there were as many warriors as stars in the Great Han Dynasty, and there were countless of them with outstanding qualifications. Even if those disciples of the hidden sect would not participate, it would still be difficult for Song Changming to win until the end.
Even though Song Changming also practiced other body-training techniques, he was not the only extreme martial artist who practiced multiple sets of body-training techniques in such a martial arts event!
The advantage that Song Changming took for granted was actually far less conspicuous than usual.
Liu Dingsheng knew this very well.
"I'm not in a hurry to decide whether to participate. If I remember correctly, the Peach Festival will be held next year, and it's still early." Seeing Song Changming's silence, Liu Dingsheng couldn't help but say.
"Thank you, Mr. Liu. If I haven't opened the Underworld Sea next year, I will have to ask you to take me there." Song Changming nodded.
Although it was a bit troublesome to rush all the way to attend the martial arts event, he was not willing to continue procrastinating and spend too long on opening the sea of underworld.
It would be best if the Underworld Sea could be opened this year, but if it could not be opened, he would have to attend this event next year.
I comforted myself in my heart, there was nothing wrong with competing with the world's wizards and heroes, it was time to broaden my horizons and increase my knowledge.
Staying in Donglai County without going out is a bit like sitting in a well and watching the sky.
"It's a small matter, don't worry." Liu Dingsheng waved his hand.
The two talked about many things while playing chess.
Unknowingly, Song Changming lost several more games on the chessboard.
At this time, Liu Ziwen suddenly came over, holding a post in his hand.
"Sir, there is a greeting card sent by the young master of the Li family, and a letter inviting a battle. Let us forward it to Changming."
"Huh?" Song Changming was stunned when he heard this.
What does this have to do with him?
"What a coincidence, there's no need to send it off again." Liu Dingsheng looked at the letter inviting the battle and said with a smile.
It was probably because Song Changming was close to him that after the other party knew about it, he handed the war invitation to him and he delivered it.
Liu Ziwen changed hands and handed the war letter to Song Changming.
One day later, the young master of the Li family from the north received Song Changming's verbal response from Liu Zhai.
It was still the same as before, he was not going to fight in this kind of meaningless war.
In the past, when faced with those ignorant people, it was superfluous for Song Changming to even reply.
That is to say, the young master of the Li family has a solid identity and background. In order to cause unnecessary trouble, Song Changming asked Liu Ziwen to help him politely decline.
It's not like he didn't consider Liu Ziwen's original suggestion to make friends with the young master of the Li family by standing up to the challenge.
Maybe there will be a chance to get the rare item from Snow Wind Villa that opens the Sea of Hell through him.
But Liu Dingsheng bluntly said that Fengxue Villa’s annual collection of rare items has been booked in advance.
Even if the other party is the eldest young master of the villa, he can't make the final decision on this rare object.
Not to mention that the other party would not be able to fight for anything for a casual acquaintance like Song Changming.
Liu Dingsheng's words completely dispelled his remaining interest.
"Hmph, what kind of dragon knife? Such evasion is probably just a vain person, boring, that's all!" Upon hearing this, Li Pu curled his lips and snorted, waving his hands, not intending to continue to pester Song Changming.
In fact, he himself did not think that Song Changming, who was known as Dragon Sword, was really as powerful as the rumors said.
Most of them were ordinary things that were exaggerated, which made him quite disdainful.
"Young Master, you have been here in Donglai County for a few days. Do you want to set off again and change places?" the old servant on the side asked respectfully.
"Well, let's go back after visiting the seven southern counties. This experience is very boring." Li Pu shook his head.
He longed to meet some exciting and fun people or things, but along the way, there were only wars and wars, and he didn't encounter anything new. That's why he just felt bored and wanted to end the experience as soon as possible and go home.
"I heard that there is a large river in Donglai County that stretches for thousands of kilometers. Legend has it that a dragon fell into this river in the past, hence the name. You might as well go and take a look before leaving." Li Pu suddenly mentioned.
The old servant opened his mouth after hearing this, but in the end he didn't say anything more and just agreed.
What he was thinking was that the young master would probably be disappointed again.
This Luolong River, how could a dragon really fall here? It was just an ordinary river.
