Black Myth: Tang Dynasty

Chapter 22 Immortal Artifact: Three Realms Gourd
In the rocky mountain, a huge snake demon mouthed human words, with blood-red pupils, looking at Li Daoxuan with incomparable resentment.

It never thought that people could be so despicable and shameless!
Isn't he a Taoist priest?Shouldn't we try to save those people?How could he completely ignore human life, and even use it to poison himself?
At this moment, it suddenly felt a little wronged, who is the monster between us?
Li Daoxuan ignored its scolding, he smiled coldly, and pasted five thunder talismans one by one on the snake demon's bloated body.

The snake demon fell into extreme weakness at this time, and wanted to flick its tail to attack, but couldn't even lift it up, let alone dodge it.

"Despicable? A monster like you who kills innocent people indiscriminately and plays with women, I can use any method to deal with you!"

Seeing that Li Daoxuan was pinching the thunder mark with his hands, and there were patches of dark clouds floating in the sky, the vicious snake demon finally began to be afraid.

"Smelly Taoist priest, you can't kill me, do you know who I am?"

Li Daoxuan sneered, and said: "Even if your father is the Dragon King of the East China Sea, I will kill you today!"

After all, there was a gleam of electricity in his eyes.

Boom!

A total of five arm-thin thunderbolts fell and struck on this vicious snake demon. For a moment, scales and armor flew, blood and flesh were mutilated, and the shrill cry echoed in the mountains, scaring away countless birds.

Five bolts of thunder fell, and the snake demon was already bruised and dying.

Li Daoxuan took a breath, feeling a little weak, his mana is still too little, so far, he barely has been able to practice for a year.

When you succeed in apprenticeship, you must quickly find a way to mention your cultivation.

Seeing the big snake lying motionless on the ground, Li Daoxuan didn't approach it, but retrieved his fish intestine sword first, then walked to it, and stabbed wildly with the sword!
The sound of the dagger piercing into flesh and blood continued to resound, the body of the snake demon trembled slightly, and the movement became smaller and smaller...

In the end, Li Daoxuan pierced its head with a sword, pierced through its brain, and completely ended its sinful life.

The next moment, the "Book of Demon Swinging" in his mind burst into bright light, and lines of words emerged, more than ever before.

"In the early years of Zhenguan, in the fifth month, I beheaded a snake demon with the blood of an ancient black dragon in Luanshi Mountain. This monster has practiced for 230 years, and it would have become a great monster that disrupted the world. Now, if it is beheaded, it will be rewarded—【Xian Tool·Three Realms Gourd]!”

When Li Daoxuan saw the word "immortal device", Li Daoxuan was shocked, and his eyes showed an incredible look.

Immortal... Immortal Artifact?
A high-grade magic weapon, the Fish Intestine Sword, has already greatly increased his combat power. If he gets a fairy weapon...

Li Daoxuan suddenly became a little swollen, Zhang Qianyang Zhang Daochang, why don't you worship me as your teacher...

But when he saw the introduction of the Three Realms Gourd, he realized that things were not as simple as he thought.

Three Realms Gourd [Immortal Artifact Remnant] (This is the treasure of Tieguai Li Chengdao, the head of the Eight Immortals in Shangdong. , Flying thousands of miles away, defending the way and defending against the enemy, it is a treasure of the immortal family, but it was damaged in the battle, and the spirit of the weapon dissipated, leaving only the ability to store things...)
Li Daoxuan frowned tightly, feeling as if he had touched some great secret.

war?

What kind of war will make Tieguai Li, the head of the Eight Immortals, unable to preserve his own treasure of Taoism?

Even Li Daoxuan had an astonishing idea in his mind, is Tieguai Li really still alive?If he was still alive, would he let his precious gourd wander in the mortal world?
After thinking about it, he still decided to keep this secret in his heart first, and then take a side-by-side attack from his master later.

Longhushan is an orthodox celestial master, and the patriarch Zhang Daoling is one of the four great celestial masters in the heavenly court. In this regard, the master may know more.

Stretching out his hand, a verdant gourd appeared in Li Daoxuan's hand. It was cold to the touch, and green vines were lingering on it, but it was a pity that there were some tiny cracks on the gourd.

There was a trace of excitement in Li Daoxuan's eyes.

Is this the legendary fairy artifact?

I saw the radiance on the gourd of the three realms, surrounded by dense purple air, and when I inhaled it, I was shocked and refreshed.

Li Daoxuan bit his fingertips and dripped a drop of blood on the gourd.

The next moment, the blood was absorbed by the gourd, and a feeling of blood connection emerged in Li Daoxuan's heart.

Treasures are divided into four levels, which are magical artifacts, magic treasures, spirit treasures, and fairy artifacts. Among them, only magical artifacts can be used directly without recognizing the owner, and the others must be recognized by a drop of blood.

After recognizing the master, the gourd of the three realms trembled slightly, and escaped into Li Daoxuan's body. Following his thought, it reappeared and hung around his waist automatically.

Li Daoxuan closed his eyes and saw the space inside the Three Realms Gourd.

The first is big, stretching as far as the eye can see, almost endless, and the second is desolation. The gourd originally formed a world with infinite vitality, but now the earth is broken and the ocean is dried up, collapsing like the doomsday.

Li Daoxuan opened his eyes, feeling very sorry.

This three-world gourd is worthy of being a treasure of the fairy family. It has its own universe inside, giving birth to 49 flaming mountains and 36 vast oceans. When the gourd is opened, endless flames and oceans that can submerge thousands of miles of mountains and rivers can be poured out.

In addition, it can also automatically absorb the essence of the sun and the moon, and cultivate a panacea, which can save life and death, flesh and blood.

It can also be used as a magic weapon for flying, traveling from the dark to the underworld, traveling thousands of miles with one thought. When the Eight Immortals crossed the sea, Tieguai Li once used it to cross the East China Sea.

It can even trap enemies or trap itself in for defense. If it sleeps in the wilderness, it can also be used as a cave to live in.

However, such a magical artifact fell into the hands of Li Daoxuan, and now it only has one function left, which is storage.

And it can only collect dead things, not living things.

The only good thing is that the space is almost infinite.

However, Li Daoxuan was not depressed, instead, he had a flash of inspiration. He was thinking that the reason why the gourds of the three realms could no longer control water and fire was because the flaming mountains and vast oceans inside were gone, but if we changed our thinking...

Li Daoxuan was a little excited, he took out a first-level Five Thunder Talisman, stuck it on a cypress tree, and then summoned Thunder.

With a thunderclap, the tree was struck by lightning and burst into flames.

Li Daoxuan pulled out the gourd and said: "Take it!"

The next moment, the flame on the cypress tree quickly flew into the mouth of the gourd and disappeared. Following Li Daoxuan's thought, it froze in the space inside the gourd.

He turned the mouth of the gourd, towards the corpse of the snake demon, and said, "Let go!"

boom!
Flames flew out from the mouth of the gourd, landed on the body of the snake demon, and burned up. After a while, the air was filled with the aroma of barbecue.

Li Daoxuan laughed loudly, quickly withdrew the flame, and touched the gourd of the three realms contentedly.

Good baby, really good baby!
With this method, he can also drive water and fire, but he needs to accumulate and store more in case of emergencies.

"Unfortunately, the appearance of this gourd is too conspicuous. It would be nice if we could keep a low profile."

Li Daoxuan muttered to himself.

As soon as the words fell, the precious light around the Three Realms Gourd dissipated, and the color turned gray-black, ordinary and inconspicuous.

Li Daoxuan's eyes lit up, and he suddenly remembered Brother Hou's golden cudgel.

"Can you get smaller?"

The Three Realms gourd suddenly shrunk a few inches.

"A little bit smaller!"

"Small!"

"How small!"

……

After a while, the Three Realms Gourd turned into a very miniature gourd, only the size of a fingernail.

It's okay to keep getting smaller, but it will consume Li Daoxuan's own mana.

Li Daoxuan's eyes were shining, like a child who got his favorite toy, and started various experiments.

He discovered that, without consuming his own mana, the Three Realms Gourd is the smallest size of a fingernail, and the largest is about three meters.

If the magic power is enough, the Three Realms Gourd is like the Golden Cudgel, which can be infinitely smaller or larger. This also gave him an idea that perhaps the real usage of the Three Realms Gourd is to become as big as a mountain just like Fan Tianyin. Then hit the enemy on the head?
One gourd controls the universe!

Hmm, I get a little excited just thinking about it...
