Chapter 206 The Empress’s Private Tuition
"Six Talisman Treasure Armor?" Zhao Duan chewed on the name.
The imperial office's archives contain many well-known weapons and artifacts in the world.
But it doesn't include the name.
But since it is a gift from the Empress, it can be imagined that it is by no means cheap.
Zhao Duan was very interested and walked up to this "protective gear" and found that its size and appearance were like a "vest" and its texture was slightly weird.
It looks like it is made of silk, and the mesh structure seems to be doped with strange metals. The armor is very light and soft, and it is an "inner armor" that can be worn under clothes.
"So light..." Zhao Duan picked it up with both hands and was surprised.
This thing is as light as a cloud and feels strange to the touch.
"As you can see, this is a top-quality piece of armor. Don't look at its slimness and thinness. It can absorb the spiritual power of heaven and earth on its own. When it is fully charged, it can withstand worldly attacks... Even if the magic power inside it is exhausted, just relying on its quality, Don’t even think about leaving any traces of the so-called magical weapons.”
Xu Zhenguan's lotus steps moved slowly and slowly.
My spear can break the world's shields, and my shield can block the world's spears... Zhao Duan complained, thinking of the contradictory allusions, and asked curiously:
"Can it block the Golden Crow flying knife?"
Xu Zhenguan said calmly:
"If you throw a throwing knife, you can block it. If I throw a knife, you can't."
Okay... It means that I am too weak to fully utilize the power of weapons... Zhao Duan slandered:
"Is this also a collection of the palace arsenal?"
Xu Zhenguan seemed to see what he was thinking and said, "Want to know its origin?"
Zhao Duan was flattering and complimentary, showing his eagerness for knowledge.
Xu Zhenguan looked emotional and said:
"This armor actually has some origins. The earliest source was a craftsman warlock hundreds of years ago. This man was very powerful in forging and especially liked to make armors.
Every time one was made, the disciples were ordered to wear it to challenge strong men to attack, in order to test the protective power. Therefore, those that can be passed down to future generations are of the highest quality. "
Can it be passed down to future generations... Zhao Duan was curious: "How many are left?"
"No more than ten fingers," Xu Zhenguan glanced at him and said faintly: "So, most of his disciples were beaten to death during the armor trial."
Zhao Duan: "..."
Xu Zhenguan continued: "Later, the six-talisman treasure armor found its way to Emperor Wu's city and became the collection of the city lord at that time. Later, it was won by the royal family in gambling and kept in the palace."
"Wudi City? The one on the coast of the East China Sea?"
Zhao Duan has not forgotten that Eunuch Hai introduced him to powerful people from all over the world.
Speaking of the four powerful people in the "World" realm today, one of them is in Emperor Wu City and is a great master-level figure who has reached the pinnacle of martial arts.
"kindness."
Mentioning this, Xu Zhenguan's expression became more serious and said: "Since the time of Emperor Taizu six hundred years ago, our royal family of Dayu has forged some grudges with the Emperor Wu City. Every hundred years, if there is no Unexpectedly, there will be a gambling battle.
Oh, this is similar to the Buddhist and Taoist tradition of fighting for thousands of years, with each generation producing outstanding disciples, and it can be considered an imitation. This Six Talisman Treasure Armor was won in one of them.
Well, the current king of Emperor Wu City's lineage is named Wu Xiankui, and he is also the number one martial artist worshiped by countless warriors in the world.
People in the world like to rank the masters, but the rest of the rankings often change. However, for hundreds of years, the top spot has been almost monopolized by the Emperor Wu City's lineage treasures.
Although Wu Xiankui has not made a move for many years, he is still recognized as the pinnacle of martial arts. "
Zhao Duan pricked up his ears.
A fight between Buddhism and Taoism?
Emperor Wu's city had a gambling fight with the Dayu royal family?
This was his first exposure to knowledge.
I can't help but be fascinated by the arena of this world.
What young man has never thought about walking around in the world with a sword and a green shirt?
Defeat all the masters in the world along the way?
Standing high in the temple for a long time did not delay his longing for the far reaches of the world.
Silently writing down the name Wu Xiankui, he said firmly:
"What kind of knowledge does a mere Jianghu Xiaoneng have? I think that martial arts should be the number one in the Dayu royal family."
A trace of bitterness flashed across Xu Zhenguan's eyes.
In terms of inheritance, the "Martial God" line created by Emperor Taizu is naturally higher than the "Wudi City line".
However, the descendants of the royal family failed to live up to expectations. The reason why the empress was eager to advance was to find the dragon soul and become a complete "celestial being".
On the one hand, it is to stabilize the situation in the DPRK.
In addition, the centenary period is approaching.
She was not sure that she could defeat the old man who had been in the realm of gods and humans for many years.
However, there is no need to talk about these things to Zhao Duan, who is a mere ordinary person.
She smiled narrowly: "It's not too late to say this until you enter the world in the future.
Emperor Wu's lineage has three thousand disciples, traveling around the world. Everyone is obsessed with recapturing the Six Talisman Armor. If anyone knew that this armor was on you, it might lead to a robbery from the Emperor Wu City. "
...The worst I can do is hide it so no one can see it... Zhao Duan took the opportunity to show his loyalty:
"I only want to stay in the capital to share your Majesty's worries. As for the world, it won't be too late to wait ten or eight years before leaving."
Well, it is his purpose to follow the Mahayana path and come out again...
Xu Zhenguan's eyes were disgusted, thinking why are you so cowardly? He shook his head and said: "It's okay to just polish yourself in the mortal realm. When you enter the divine chapter realm, if you want to make progress, you have to fight with others. So Realized in life and death.
Most of the dangers in the capital are in the temples. If you stay for a long time, it will weaken the warrior's determination and hinder his practice. "
Is that so?
So, if you can't become a master in the capital... If you do it by force, you will also be a master of parallel imports... Zhao Duan looked like he was mourning for his heir, and murmured:
"But I saw that the Jin Jian Priest is also in the Divine Chapter realm, but he wanders around all day and never travels."
The empress said calmly: "The key to a warlock's practice is not to fight, but to be in harmony with the gods, which is different from a warrior."
"..." Zhao Duan suddenly felt a sense of crisis.
During this period of time, I was only focused on gaining merit, and the courtiers brought down a lot of people, so I devoted less time to practice.
I thought I could slowly hang up and upgrade, but now it seems that it's not that simple.
"Oh, understand?" The empress smiled and said: "The treasure armor I am giving you this time is only one of them. I personally teach you martial arts, which is the other."
As she spoke, the empress grabbed her slender hand from the air.
"Buzz!"
far away.
On the weapon rack, a long sword was suddenly rolled up and passed heavily into her white and soft jade hand.
Xu Zhenguan turned around, her skirt spun around in a circle on the spacious martial arts field, she half-smiled but looked at the confused Zhao Duan:
How about putting on your armor and fighting with me? ? I will push my cultivation level to be the same as yours and try your quality."
Zhao Duan perked up.
A strong man who is half a step into the realm of heaven and human beings, sparring with him in person, how can he hesitate at all?
He hurriedly put the six-talisman armor on his body, picked a knife from the weapon rack, and said with his hand: "Your Majesty, I have offended you..."
As soon as he finished speaking, his body suddenly sank, and his body was as tense as a bow.
The pure qi exhaled from the sleeping dragon soul in the qi sea wrapped around the spinal dragon along the meridians, pushing him to turn into an afterimage and rush towards Xu Zhenguan!
Of course he is not worried. With his own strength, he can hurt the empress at all.
So once you take action, use all your strength.
To some extent, it's a bit of a show-off...
In his opinion, the empress lowered her cultivation level to the same level as her own, and even if there was a gap, it wouldn't be very big...
However, the next second, Xu Zhenguan was seen handing out a sword in an understatement, without any fireworks.
The tip of the sword had already pierced Zhao Duan's chest.
A powerful force tried to penetrate into his chest, and in an instant, the "Six Talisman Treasure Armor" on his body shimmered in response.
Zhao Duan's body was vaguely covered with a set of illusory full-body armor, protecting his whole body.
Around him, the air vibrated with a circle of ripples, and six illusory talismans formed a "circle" and enveloped him.
At this moment, the ring composed of six talismans suddenly rotated, and in an instant, the power of the empress's sword was weakened by 90%.
Even so, Zhao Duan, who had resisted 10% of the force, flew backwards and flew several feet like a meteor, hitting the ground solidly. He felt his throat was slightly sweet and his blood was surging.
"Your Majesty..." He was stunned.
The fairy-like female emperor looked calm and stood tall with her sword in hand. She had the aura of a strong man in Yuanting Yuechi. Looking at it, it was like seeing a white waterfall flying down three thousand feet.
Black hair swept across her peerless face, and the corners of the fairy's mouth slightly curled up: "Is this all you have? It doesn't seem like it's going to work."
Men can't say no... Zhao Duan hammered the ground with one hand and used the force of the counter-shock to pounce on the empress for the second time.
…
Outside the palace.
The palace door was closed, and a group of eunuchs standing here could clearly hear the screams coming from inside with their ears.
"ah!"
"Ah!"
"Your Majesty, please be gentle..."
"...I can't do it anymore..."
"Hmph, stand up and do it again! You can't stop if I don't allow it."
"Eunuch." Suddenly, the eunuchs saluted.
The sea worshipper wearing a bright red python robe walked up and looked at the closed door of the palace. His face full of furrows and wrinkles exclaimed: "It's better to be young...to be able to toss..."
…
…
"Master Zhao's legs are broken! His hands and feet are no longer functioning. Quick, carry him to the room!"
A eunuch rushed out from the martial arts arena, shaking his head anxiously.
Several eunuchs rushed in and hurriedly carried out Zhao Duan, who had a bruised nose and swollen face, tattered clothes, and body covered with bruises and scars. He had lost strength and collapsed on the ground.
Go into the prepared room and take off your coat.
I scrubbed myself first and then put him on the bed.
The eunuchs in the palace applied the prepared medicine to repair wounds evenly on his body.
"It hurts...it hurts..."
Zhao Duan lay on the bed, feeling that his body was no longer his.
The eunuch who applied the ointment had a grimace on his face:
"Master Zhao, please bear with me. These are the best medicines. Apply them and you will see immediate effects."
"...Your hands are too heavy, could you please replace me with a palace maid..."
When Zhao Duan was dizzy, he twisted his body and did not forget to bargain.
Even though they are both "men", it's not like they haven't been honest with their friends and rubbed each other's backs when they went to the bathhouse in their last life.
But thinking about an eunuch touching him randomly, Zhao Duan felt uncomfortable all over.
The eunuch smiled bitterly and said: "I have to ask your Majesty for permission..."
"...Forget it." Zhao Duan lamented.
However, the eunuch's technique is actually quite good. He has experienced two hours of inhumane teachings from the empress.
Zhao Duan felt a strong sense of sleepiness coming over him. He fell into a drowsy state and fell asleep.
Little did he know, the door opened quietly, and a lotus foot crossed the threshold and silently walked into the room.
"Your Majesty... Your Majesty!"
The eunuch who had taken the medicine for the bruise was shocked and hurriedly stood up and saluted.
She was sweating all over. She had just taken a shower and put on dry clothes. Her wet hair was spread behind her head. Empress Yu said a reserved "Yes" and said:
"How is it?"
The eunuch said: "Master Zhao is too tired and has fallen asleep. I follow Hai Cangfeng's order and apply the medicine on the wound."
Xu Zhenguan shook his head and said, "Go out and let me take a look at the injury."
"yes."
The eunuch went out and closed the door carefully.
Xu Zhenguan walked to the bed and looked at Zhao Duan, who was lying on the bed and falling asleep.
The thick and strong back, which was full of bruises and scars, with obvious muscle lines, was half-smeared with ointment.
It's just that the eunuch's cultivation is not enough, and he is completely unable to use Qi to activate the medicine and exert its medicinal power.
"Zhao Qing?"
Xu Zhenguan called softly and couldn't help but smile when he saw that the dead pig was completely unresponsive.
Seeing the numerous scars, I couldn't bear it, but if you want to make rapid progress in martial arts, how can you not get hurt?
However, if this injury is not properly healed, I am afraid that I will have to lie down for ten days and a half.
"That's all, I'm giving you an advantage."
On the empress's face, which was carved from white jade, a hint of helplessness flashed across her beautiful eyes, and an unnatural blush flashed across her pink neck.
After pondering for a while, he finally stretched out his slender fingers as white as green onion, dug out a piece of plaster in the bowl, slowly rubbed it in his palm, hesitated for a moment, and slowly pressed it on Zhao's back.
A cool force slowly pushes the medicine into the skin.
Piece by piece, inch by inch.
Zhao Duan, who was sleeping, was drowsy and sighed comfortably.
Thank you Huang'er for your 500 point reward and support~
