Under the dim light of the sword qi stone on the cave dome, Lu Ming half-squatted on the ground, carefully probing the small box that was placed on the ground.

Shangguan Ying originally had little interest in this small box, but now that Lu Ming is interested in it, it is not the same thing at all.

"For his treasure hunting methods, I haven't experienced it once or twice. ”

Shangguan Ying thought secretly, and also squatted down, staring at the small box. It was found that it was not large, only the size of a lunch box, and it was only revealed at the moment when the corpse of the ancestor turned into powder, and it was obvious that it had been carried by the owner during his lifetime.

Lu Ming observed the small box, and at the same time groped, but the material used to forge it was very special, non-gold and non-iron, and it looked like an ordinary wooden box. However, even if he visited with the absolute power of the sword marks, he could only barely see a little hazy outline inside, which showed that it had a very powerful protection and sealing function.

Click, with a soft sound, Lu Ming found the switch, and the lid of the box opened, revealing a foot-long parchment roll.

This parchment scroll is bright in color, and there is no trace of age, as if it had just been carved and put in yesterday.

"Not to mention what is recorded on the parchment scroll, even this little box is a treasure. It seems that this time, Lu Ming's choice is still not wrong. ”

Shangguan Ying's heart was a little shocked, she gently picked up the parchment scroll, slowly unfolded it, and a map outlining the mountains and rivers appeared in front of her, she thought about it carefully, and said categorically: "I haven't seen this map." ”

Lu Ming looked at the map carefully, and said with some surprise: "I haven't seen such a map either." ”

Shangguan Ying frowned, and said with a heavy face: "I only know that my ancestor once left the Zhenyuan Empire and traveled to foreign continents, but I heard that he offended people outside later, and there were many disputes, and then he returned to the Zhenyuan Empire, founded the Heaven-Shaking Sword Sect, and was determined to be the number one sect on the Sword Qi Continent, but it's a pity...... Before his wish could be fulfilled, he died here. ”

Lu Ming nodded, while comparing the map with the imperial map in his brain little by little, and probing step by step, it turned out that there was no place where the two could match.

"This map is not a place in the empire at all, and now it seems that this may be a foreign map, and it should be a very important existence if he keeps it until he dies and carries it with him. Lu Ming asserted.

"yes. Shangguan Ying nodded and said: "At that time, the Sword Sect was strong, and it was famous throughout the empire, and there was never a shortage of resources and materials. ”

Lu Ming agrees with this very much, but he doesn't associate Shangguan Ying's ancestor with this map too much, because the Sword Qi Continent is large enough, and the landforms are endless, and he doesn't have the ability to explore even things outside of Qing Yuanzhou now, so the time is not yet.

Lu Ming's control is so strong, he directly pressed the treasure's ** in his heart, put away the map, and then pulled out the broken sword obtained in the Mirror Lake swamp between the ribs, and compared them with each other, and the result was that the broken sword in his hands was exactly the same as his own judgment.

"Huh?" Shangguan Ying was directly surprised: "These two broken swords look the same?"

Lu Ming smiled bitterly and said, "This is exactly the same broken sword, there is no difference." ”

Shangguan Yingzai carefully looked at the two broken swords, the sword body, the hilt, and even touched the broken part with his hand, but he didn't find anything different, and said strangely: "There is actually the same sword?

Lu Ming could sense that Shangguan Ying didn't know much about swords, so he explained to her: "No one is exactly the same, and swords can't be exactly the same. After all, when forging a sword, no one can control the slightest change in the fusion of steel and various materials, which belongs to the natural level. Even if it is the same two pieces of refined steel, it is impossible to create the same sword, because it is impossible to have absolutely the same and pure material, and the state, technique, and strength of the person who forged the sword, such as the existence that is closely related to the sword, cannot be completely consistent, so even the world's top sword-casting master has no ability to create the same sword, even if it is deliberately forged. ”

Listening to Lu Ming's subtle explanation, Shangguan Ying was suddenly shocked and said, "But now there is such a sword! In this way, these two broken swords must contain a big secret!"

"That's right. Lu Ming also thinks so, and he already thinks so when he was in the Mirror Lake Swamp, but now there is an extra handful, which means that the secret is a little bigger than before.

Shangguan Ying thought for a moment and said, "That's it, there are still many old people in the Sword Sect, let me help you inquire and see if you can find some useful information." ”

"I'm afraid it won't work. Lu Ming shook his head and directly rejected her suggestion. If the news of the two broken swords is leaked, it may immediately arouse the interest of some people who know the secret of the broken sword, after all, people are unpredictable, no one will know what secrets are hidden in the hearts of others, and now their strength is not enough to ignore the peepers, and they do not have the absolute ability to protect the broken sword, this matter must be cautious.

Three broken swords! Lu Ming had an intuition in his heart, as long as he put these three broken swords together, he would always be able to discover something and understand something from them.

Now, it seems that she is going to get Shangguan Ying's affairs done as soon as possible, as long as her affairs are dealt with, she will rush back immediately, get the third broken sword, and try to crack it.

Shangguan Ying realized some of the worries in Lu Ming's words, so she didn't force it anymore, she turned around and walked to the place where the skeleton turned into powder, knelt on the ground, and kowtowed to the ancestors, her face was solemn and solemn, as if she was secretly promising something.

Lu Ming knew that this might be inseparable from the revitalization of the sect, after all, the current Shangguan Ying could no longer speak the same words, the realm of the two-bladed great sword master, the talent of the seven-killing sword body, all this showed that she was already more high-end than ordinary swordsmen!

"I'm fine, there doesn't seem to be any treasure here, let's go. Shangguan Ying gently wiped away a tear from the corner of her eye, and felt very sorry for the bleak death of this ancestor.

"Good. Lu Ming said as he walked: "It's a pity that the glorious period of the sect is too short, and there has only been one Sword Saint, so naturally there will be no more secret treasures, after all, it takes a lot of time and talent to become a strong person in the Sword Saint realm, and it can't be forced." ”

Shangguan Ying understands very well, Sword Saint, that is the existence of an absolute powerhouse in the entire continent. When Lu Ming closed the cave gate, she looked back and took a deep look, the expression on her face was resolute, and her eyes were extremely confident.

After sending Shangguan Ying back to his residence, Lu Ming hurriedly rushed back to the Star Sword Courtyard where he lived. I don't know which elder ordered it, but the place had now been cleaned, and the blood on the ground had been visibly washed with water and covered with a new layer of sand.

Lu Ming raised his eyebrows, in the face of absolute strength, even if these people are not sincere now, but at least they will do what they should do.

Sitting in front of the table, Lu Ming took the two broken swords in his hands and continued to observe and study.

Lu Ming found that he was using the power of the sword mark to probe it, and with the current strength of the four-bladed sword master, he still couldn't do the deepest observation, he was like standing outside a gate to heaven, and when he looked inside, it was still chaotic, even if the point he was standing on now had been improved.

"This won't work......"

Lu Ming shook his head, since the power of the sword mark could not be detected, then he changed his way of thinking and poured his sword qi and sword qi into the broken sword.

Lu Ming's eyes suddenly radiated two sharp rays of light, and he concentrated his heart, baptized the already incomparably pure sword qi again, and immediately poured it in!

With a 'hum', Lu Ming found that his sword qi and sword intent were like a faint electric current, directly igniting the fuel in the engine, and the two broken swords released a powerful force at the same time, and they actually broke free of their hands and levitated directly in front of him.

Lu Ming stretched out his hand and grabbed it with all his strength, but found that no matter how hard he tried, they were like a pair of magnets at the same pole, and he couldn't even put the two broken swords together, and at this moment, the two swords had some kind of powerful relationship, and they couldn't be separated further.

The two broken swords are suspended in this way, there is an invisible energy between them that is convecting to each other, Lu Ming can see very clearly with the sword marks, this subtle energy is coming from the deepest part of the broken sword.

This faint energy traveled back and forth, like fireflies under the night sky, but Lu Ming knew that the speed of these energies was incomparable, even the speed of his own sword was incomparable, and at the same time, their trails gradually outlined the outline of something a little bit.

Lu Ming quietly observed, these energies seemed to be about to emerge something, but something was missing, but it couldn't be formed.

Lu Ming looked at the virtual image outlined by the energy released by these two broken swords, and frowned slightly, they were now like a three-legged tripod, because they were missing a foot, so they couldn't form a complete virtual image.

The Third Broken Sword!Lu Ming can now conclude that as long as he gets the third Broken Sword, everything can be cracked.

It's just that Lu Ming can feel the subtle but extremely pure and profound sword intent released from the broken sword, as if he wants to follow these sword qi sword intent into a certain place, but because there are only two swords, the sword intent formed is not complete, and the virtual image outlined is also missing most of it, it is very incomplete, and it is impossible to enter at all.
