At night, with the stars in the sky, Duan Chen did not return to the dormitory to intensify his practice as usual after dinner, but walked towards the back garden of the main courtyard alone.

Slowly from a secluded pavilion, feeling the autumn wind blowing around, Duan Chen instinctively tightened his clothes, and held the black lock that he had obtained during the day tightly in his hand.

After staring at the black lock for a long time and still finding nothing, Duan Chen finally sighed lightly and tried to instill a trace of Yuan Force into the lock.

"Huh?"

As his Yuan Force continued to pour in, a trace of surprise suddenly appeared on Duan Chen's face. Because when he tentatively instilled the Yuan Force into the Black Lock, he was surprised to find that the Black Lock at this time was like a black hole that could never be filled, absorbing all the Yuan Power he output.

What's even more surprising is that when Duan Chen expanded his Yuan Force infusion to the peak in the end, the black lock still looked like he couldn't get enough to feed.

"It's strange, I can't imagine that you can withstand such a violent impact of Yuan Force, it can be seen that your material is absolutely extraordinary, but since you have not been shocked into powder by my Yuan Force, then why have you not changed anything after absorbing so much Yuan Force?"

His eyes were full of incomprehension, and Duan Chen muttered to himself. You must know that at this time, with the strength of his early stage of the Silver Dan Realm, if it was under normal circumstances, not to mention this seemingly ordinary black lock, even if it was the strongest mortal weapon made of stainless steel, I am afraid that it would have been shattered by his Yuan Force.

But now, under the violent impact of Duan Chen's Yuan Force, the black lock was not only not damaged in the slightest, but even absorbed all his Yuan Power into it, which was really a little incredible.

"Hey, what is this black thing? Not only can it absorb the Yuan Force without limit, but it can also remain in its original state after absorbing the Yuan Power, no change, strange, really strange. ”

Just when Duan Chen was guessing in his heart what the black lock was, the Blood Pupil Demon Ape, who had seen all this in his eyes, finally couldn't help but speak up.

"Buzz!"

As he spoke, he suddenly saw Kongtong Yin flicker as if he was giving some hint to the two, and then returned to calm again.

"Kongtong seal, black lock, black chain, Kongtong seal......" Silently thinking about something in his heart, Duan Chen's eyes kept scanning back and forth from Kongtong seal and black lock.

"I know!" Just as Duan Chen was thinking about something, suddenly the voice of the Blood Pupil Demon Ape full of surprise came out and said, "Boy, you can make a fortune now, this, this black lock must also be an ancient artifact." ”

"Ancient artifact, why don't you die!" Originally, after hearing the shout of the Blood Pupil Demon Ape, Duan Chen's face couldn't help but show a trace of thick anticipation, but when he heard the Blood Pupil Demon Ape's next words, Duan Chen couldn't help but burst out with a wry smile on his face.

Because although it was true that by a coincidence, he had inadvertently been recognized by Kongtong Yin and became its new owner, but Duan Chen didn't believe that the primeval artifact that almost everyone in the world had squeezed out their heads to find would become so worthless in his own place.

For a while, under Duan Chen's foul mouth, the Blood Pupil Demon Ape seemed to realize his naivety, and suddenly became silent.

"It seems that the Kongtong seal only absorbs energy before recognizing me, and now this black lock is too similar to it before, is it possible that if you want to use its power, you must be the same as the Kongtong seal, and you must first get its approval......"

Searching hard in his mind for the similarities between the Kongtong seal and the black lock, Duan Chen couldn't help but say silently. But when he was halfway through the words, he was suddenly startled by his own words.

Because if it was really as he guessed, this black lock had its own spiritual intelligence, then wouldn't it belong to a mystic-level weapon that was at least one level higher than the spiritual weapon.

"Impossible, this is absolutely impossible, if it is really a mystery-level weapon, then how could it be thrown away as waste by the master!"

The next moment, thinking back to the words of the head of the East Courtyard today, Duan Chen completely rejected the idea in his heart almost immediately.

"Hehe, what's impossible about this, don't forget that someone still wanted to throw away the first divine soldier Kongtong seal. Undisciplined to uncover Duan Chen's scar, the Blood Pupil Demon Ape continued only after seeing the latter's angry expression: "This black lock almost deceived me just now, and it is naturally even more impossible for your masters to see any clues. ”

If before Duan Chen guessed the key to how to control the black lock, the Blood Pupil Demon Ape might not really know how to start.

Then at this time, under the prompting of Kongtong Yin, when Duan Chen set the level of the black lock above the Xuan Weapon, the well-informed Blood Pupil Demon finally began to play his role.

I saw that under his command, Duan Chen could be said to have demonstrated almost all the methods of recognizing the Lord from beginning to end, but what made him extremely depressed was that in the end, he still failed to obtain the approval of the black lock.

"Hey, a little lock, I'd like to see what you are!"

Seeing that Duan Chen had been defeated repeatedly, the Blood Pupil Demon Ape finally couldn't help but want to invade it to find out, but when he turned into a red ray and wanted to forcibly enter the lock, he was depressed to find that he was like hitting his head on an iron plate, and he couldn't invade half a point at all.

"Wait a minute, if you can't conquer, you can only coexist, I, I seem to know why!"

Just as the Blood Pupil Demon Ape was unconvinced and continuously hit the black lock, suddenly Duan Chen's eyes lit up and stopped him.

"Friend, for the sake of you and me, I hope to be able to get your help, okay?" After that, Duan Chen tried to communicate with Hei Suo as if he were an old friend under the incomprehensible gaze of the Blood Pupil Demon Ape.

"Boy, are you having a problem with your head, a lifeless broken lock, what are you talking nonsense about it......" Looking at Duan Chen's actions, the Blood Pupil Demon Ape suddenly said with a mocking face.

But just as he was halfway through his words, suddenly a trace of incomparable surprise suddenly appeared in the latter's eyes.

Because in front of his eyes, the Blood Pupil Demon Ape was unbelievably able to see that with Duan Chen's words, a trace of black light suddenly burst out from within the lock, and finally suddenly turned into a beam of light and rushed directly into Duan Chen's head.

"Gravity!"

Feeling the strange power contained in the black light, Duan Chen suddenly couldn't help but clasp his hands and shout loudly as the black beam rushed into his brain.

With his cold drink, he saw that within a radius of more than ten square meters centered on the black lock, there was a faint trace of black mist permeating it.
