Li Qingyun sat on the throne, frowning slightly as he looked at the hundreds of magic weapons below.
This is the treasure of the Ghost Sea Realm. Over the endless years, countless powerful people have collected countless treasure troves.
But in the Ancient Artifact City, one of the three major cities, only these few hundred magic weapons are left?
Looking at it, almost all of them are holy magic weapons, only the Huantian Pot and the Soul-Breaking Halberd are faintly more powerful.
Seeing the magical treasures coming together, Li Qingyun immediately said: "My Excellency, Li Qingyun, has come to collect the Ancient Artifact Palace on the orders of the controller of the Ghost Sea Realm."
"If anyone is dissatisfied, feel free to raise a challenge. If you are better than the one below, you can choose your own way out!"
As soon as these words came out, all the weapon spirits below immediately panicked.
They have been living in this ancient artifact city since they were born, which is only a million years ago.
Now suddenly someone told them that he wanted to rule them all, and those who were dissatisfied came up to fight.
Such an attitude is really a bit tough.
But after a while, no weapon spirit dared to question it, and they all expected other weapon spirits to come forward.
Li Qingyun waited for a long time, and when he saw no movement below, he said helplessly: "Why, do you want to be ruled by others so much?"
Before the weapon spirits said anything, several magic weapons headed by the Soul-Breaking Halberd were the first to kneel down.
"We are willing to rule for you and do the hard work of dogs and horses!"
Huantian Pot also immediately bowed: "Huantian Pot is willing to treat you as the master and be respected by you from generation to generation!"
The weapon spirits around were shocked when they saw this, and they all tried to persuade him: "Friend Broken Soul, why do you want to worship him?"
"We have been here in the Ancient Artifact City for millions of years, and you are willing to just become someone else's sect?"
Taoist Broken Soul glanced at the group of magic weapons and said calmly: "You are not willing, then why don't you try to resist?"
As soon as these words came out, all the weapon spirits became furious and started to reprimand one after another.
"Bah! I thought you had some backbone after living in the city lord's palace for a long time, but I didn't expect you to be such a lowly person!"
"Huantian Pot, if you are threatened by the Soul-Breaking Halberd, you can stand up and we will make the decision for you!"
"Yes, they have been bullying Huantian Pot, and I can't stand it anymore!"
Huantian Pot was a little flustered when he heard this, and said quickly: "No... I volunteer..."
When Taoist Pohun heard this, he was very disdainful: "You can't stand it for a long time? Then why didn't you take action earlier, and you didn't dare to say it until this moment?"
The weapon spirit who spoke hesitated and said: "Before...before, I wanted to see how the relationship between you would develop!"
Soul-Breaking Halberd frowned slightly and said in a low voice: "Forget it, surrendering to this Lord now is the only way out for our Ancient Artifact City."
The weapon spirits were furious when they heard this: "Impossible, we have no master!"
On the throne, Li Qingyun rolled his eyes helplessly and shouted loudly: "Shut up, my sect master!!"
All the weapon spirits were startled by the roar and froze in place for an instant.
Li Qingyun glanced at the artifact spirits below with an unkind expression, and slowly said: "Don't want to succumb to others? Do you know where the ancient artifact city you are located is?"
Taoist Pohun's eyes lit up when he heard the sound, and he immediately respectfully said: "I am stupid, but I hope you will make it clear!"
Li Qingyun pointed at the Soul-Breaking Halberd, looked at the weapons and said: "It is the exclusive magic weapon of the Lord of this city!"
The Soul-Breaking Halberd was stunned when he heard this. He didn't even know who the Lord of the City was, so how could it become the exclusive magic weapon of the Lord of the City?
But Li Qingyun did not explain directly, but pointed to the Huantian Pot: "It is a teapot commonly used by the Lord of the City."
Huantian Pot was startled when he heard this, and then continued to lie down without moving.
Li Qingyun looked at the hundreds of weapon spirits below with stern eyes, and said loudly: "The master of this city is the ancient ferocious beast, Changyou!"
"The City Lord's Mansion here is also called Changyou Mansion. As subjects of Changyou Mansion, you actually try to break away from your master?"
Hearing the word 'Changyou', Soul-Broken Halberd had a look of confusion and shock on his face, and his body gradually stiffened.
And all the weapon spirits finally recalled that mysterious figure!
Li Qingyun slowly raised the Ancient Artifact City formation plate: "Now that Lord Changyou has handed over this city to me, whether you want it or not, you have no choice."
All the weapon spirits looked at me, and I looked at you, and finally they all knelt down and worshiped together.
"We have met the Lord!"
Seeing that all the weapon spirits had surrendered, Li Qingyun finally got down to business.
"Who usually attends the promotion ceremony?"
Soul-Breaking Halberd immediately knelt down and replied: "Anyone who has reached the standard of sanity and is not higher than the Holy Lord can participate!"
Li Qingyun asked: "So, all magic weapons with sanity in our Ancient Artifact City can participate?"
The soul-breaking halberd smiled bitterly and said: "No, if all the magic weapons participate together, the materials for the upgrading ceremony will be far from enough."
"Generally speaking, each city selects fifty magic weapons based on the attributes of the dismantled magic weapons, and then sorts them according to their level of sanity."
"The higher the sanity, the more priority will be given to the dismantled materials."
Li Qingyun scratched his head after hearing this: "How to judge who is more sane?"
Taoist Pohun explained: "There is a weapon spirit stone in Haosi City, which can be judged according to the degree of mental enlightenment of the weapon spirit."
Li Qingyun continued to ask: "When was the magic weapon dismantled?"
Taoist Broken Soul explained: "Usually after the upgrading ceremony begins, the crime of a certain magic weapon will be read out, and then it will be pushed into the formation to be dismantled."
"The materials that come out will be distributed according to ranking and compatibility. If you are unlucky and the materials are not compatible, then no matter how high the ranking is, you will have to leave with regret."
Li Qingyun nodded slowly: "Yes, I understand. You should prepare for the promotion ceremony first."
Taoist Broken Soul asked cautiously: "Sir, don't you plan to take a look in person?"
Li Qingyun was stunned when he heard this: "If I participate in that ceremony, I won't be recognized?"
Taoist Broken Soul nodded quickly: "Don't worry, every upgrade ceremony involves new weapon spirits. They all have different shapes and may not necessarily look like them. Even if they look like spirits, they will never arouse suspicion.
!”
Li Qingyun suddenly said: "I see, how long will it take for the latest promotion ceremony?"
Taoist Broken Soul counted with his fingers and said slowly: "It's about a year or so."
Li Qingyun immediately ordered: "I will come back in a year, and then you will take me to Haosi City."
Taoist Pohun was stunned when he heard this: "Where are you going, sir?"
Li Qingyun grinned: "Of course I should go out first, there are still many things going on outside."
Taoist Broken Soul immediately bowed excitedly: "Sir...can you take me out to see me for a long time?"
As soon as these words came out, many of the surrounding weapon spirits became a little excited.
"What, you can actually go out!?"
"Sir, please take me out to have a look too!"
"And me, and me!"
Li Qingyun was slightly startled when he saw this, then smiled and spoke.
"Those who are willing to go out with me to see the world, please gather at the dojo in the city."
"This sect leader will take you out to have a big game!"
