Mountain Patrol Military Officer-Chapter 359 - 303: A Divine Treasure

Dugu Jialuo rarely saw her good friend lose composure like this, and she saw the Danqing scrolls rolling on the ground.

She saw in each of those scrolls, there was almost always a figure from the back.

Silver Armor, black cloak, holding a Three-pointed Two-blade Spear!

She couldn’t help but think of something, her beautiful eyes shifting, restraining her casualness, her lips parted slightly, and she softly said:

"Is he the Ninth Mountain’s Colonel?"

Qin Rushuang bowed her head, looking at the Danqing dirtied by splattered ink as if the things she pursued were tarnished, anger difficult to settle in her eyes, with her chest rapidly heaving.

Then she crouched down, picking up a scroll with her hand.

In the painting, a crowd of figures, in a square, she held a Bronze Couldron, far away the Demon Cloud filled the sky, a huge and fierce Great Demon figure loomed large, and on the square, a surge of iron-armored figures rose to the sky, charging towards the Demon Cloud.

"Back in the day, I came to Shu with the Chamberlain, two Grandmasters carrying out the Martial Temple’s dharma decree went to the Ten Thousand Mountains, I followed them to the border, later the Chamberlain died in the Demon Cave, the border was breached, I inherited the will of a Border Guardian General, taking the local Demon Suppression Envoy’s Tao Fruit back, not to fall into the hands of demons, I was chased by Three-headed Tao Fruit Demons, fleeing to a city in Chishui Prefecture!"

"Right here, I first heard about the Ninth Mountain’s Colonel, those stationed in this city were Small sects coming to support from Shu, local stationed soldiers, and the Mountain-cutting Army, they all told me to escort this couldron to the Ninth Mountain’s Colonel, then one after another they fell in succession; even knowing they couldn’t win, they still fought to their deaths escorting me to leave. Later, many of them died at the hands of demons."

Speaking of this, she pulled out another scroll, in the painting, in a pitch-black forest, eight people were scattered.

Some stood, some kneeled on one knee, propping up another lying down, some covered their chests, bending over.

These people had no faces, only vague outlines.

These people all looked together at the one in the middle wearing Silver Armor.

And Qin Rushuang’s expression revealed her recollections, "This was the first time I met the Nine Colonels, at a critical moment, he killed the brazen Three-headed Tao Fruit Demons, saving us, at that time, I brought the news of the Great Martial Vault Demon’s attack, the Chamberlain’s death, the border’s collapse, and the demons’ massive invasion, the others all hesitated, conflicted, it was this Nine Colonels who stood out and said he was going to fight for Weiyuan Pass which had fallen into demons’ hands, to buy time for civilians to evacuate. Then, I joined them."

Saying this, Qin Rushuang finally showed a slight smile. freёnovelkiss.com

"Sister Jialuo, do you know, that was the most exciting thing I’ve ever done!"

As she spoke, she took out the last Danqing scroll, in the painting, on top of a ruined city wall, troops fought with the overwhelming demons. A resounding figure in Silver Armor, black cloak, holding a Three-pointed Two-blade Spear, stood in the sky above the wall, opposite six fierce great demons!

"Later, we together fought for Weiyuan Pass, the Six Mountain Demons went mad and attacked, the Nine Colonels fought in blood and killed the Six Mountains Tao Fruit, then, the Great Martial Vault Demon appeared, the Nine Colonels were just Tao Fruit, but they fought to their deaths against the Great Martial Vault Demon’s Divine Skills, sending the rest of us away, but in the end he ascended from despair, promoted to Martial Vault, yet still ended up with his Dharma Image shattered, critically injured and dying."

Qin Rushuang did not use an intense tone, merely narrated all of this calmly.

At last, she "heh" laughed lightly, rolled up these Danqing scrolls, and held them in her embrace, rising to her feet.

"How ironic!"

"When the civilians were being slaughtered by demons, the Court turned a blind eye."

"When the front-line soldiers fell one after another, those people were still discussing who would be the next Demon Suppression Envoy, how to divide up Shu’s Luck."

"I, Qin Rushuang, used to be proud, thinking that Shu as a barbaric and remote place, its soldiers all weak and incapable, so easily crushed, but when I saw these people, even facing the Great Martial Vault Demon, dared to draw their knives and charge into battle, I understood, it wasn’t their fault, it was our people’s fault."

"Now someone has barely pulled back the collapsing battle situation, the Court starts to discard the millstone that’s done grinding, stepping over the bones of countless civilians and soldiers, profiting from blood-steamed buns."

"This kind of court, hmph!"

Dugu Jialuo quietly listened to Qin Rushuang’s inner turmoil, hidden beneath her placid exterior, and was somewhat moved by her friend’s experiences. Although she couldn’t empathize directly, she knew her friend was expressing indignation on behalf of the soldiers from Shu and also for Jiushan.

The usually indifferent beauty truly was enraged!

It also sparked a hint of curiosity within the daughter of the Marquis about the unseen Colonel of Jiushan.

She was always straightforward, her phoenix eyes shimmering with emotion as she turned to look at Qin Rushuang who hadn’t yet calmed down, "Alright, since my sister is so angry, just take this news to that Colonel. I too am displeased with the filth that pervades the court."

As she spoke, a slender phoenix eye revealed a mischievous smile, "I’m curious too. I wonder what kind of man this General is, to earn such high praise from my proud sister. Why don’t we go see him together? How about it?"

While saying this, she burst into giggles.

She indeed feared neither heaven nor earth and wondered, after revealing the news to the Colonel, what his reaction would be?

Jingguan City, the sky quickly turned to night, and the snow that had just stopped for a while began to fall heavily again, with the wind howling.

In the night, the vast expanse of white brightened the sky and earth.

Atop Jiushan in Yunding Mountain, the Ninth Mountain Colonel Hall stood steadfast against the wind and snow.

Outside, the world was ice and snow with bone-chilling winds, but inside a side room of the Colonel Hall, it was resplendent with divine light, misty and cloud-covered, boiling like fire.

In the room, a tall figure was suspended in the air, his body shimmering like silver. The lofty sound of a dragon’s roar filled the space, bearing incredible pressure. Above his Dantian, five visceral temples emitted the rumbling of thunder, radiating a five-colored glow.

At this moment, Chen Yuan had his eyes closed, his external body bubbled with movement, while inside, it was even more dazzling.

The Dragon Qi Mother Tree, previously nurtured within his Dantian, had now transformed into a splendidly shining Silver Dragon. With dragon roars and howls, it surged along the liver meridian, flushing Chen Yuan’s first Divine Treasure.

The Liver Divine Treasure!

The liver belongs to the Wood God’s Treasure, symbolizing vitality and strength.

This was Chen Yuan’s consideration after deep deliberation.

The Dongfang Azure Dragon is associated with wood, and the Dragon Qi Mother Tree was currently brimming with vitality, related to the Host Staff’s Divine Power.

Chen Yuan thus planned to open the first Liver Divine Treasure with the Dragon Qi Mother Tree, then build a Divine Platform with it, and have the Northern Sea Dragon Girl reside on it, nourishing this Divine Platform.

To condense True Dragon Qi and convert it for his own use.

Just that simple.

"Yin"

Just then, a lofty dragon’s roar resounded loudly.

Chen Yuan felt as if he had plunged into a world of vitality, suddenly enlightened.

The first Divine Treasure was opened!
