Two days later, the city guards informed Fu Yuanming that he had work to do.
As usual, Fu Yuanming went to the square to wait. This time, the criminal had committed the crime of burglar…Yes, the laws of this world were very strict. Even burglar was sentenced to death!
A beggar caught red-handed on the streets would not break the law even if he was beaten to death.
Fu Yuanming had just stepped onto the execution platform when the prisoner raised his head to look at him and fainted…Even Chen Hao was speechless. If he was afraid of death, why would he steal?
Even if he fainted, he could not escape the death penalty. Who asked him to commit a crime? Who asked him to get caught? Who asked him to be weak?
The last part was the main point!
By the way, the rate of solving cases in this world was quite low!
After all, the difference in individual strength was too great.
Fu Yuanming steadily chopped off the criminal's head and returned to the small resting room. He waited for a long time, but there was no reaction from the long sword.
He was a little puzzled.
Could it be that his guess was wrong, or that there weren't enough?
This time, after waiting for three days, Fu Yuanming executed two more criminals.
After returning, Chen Hao immediately passed the second level of the Gale Technique to him.
This time, Fu Yuanming was very excited!
The feedback from the sword proved his guess.
The longsword wanted to kill people. As long as it killed a certain number, it would give the sword master a secret manual.
Could this be a spiritual sword?
Could it be that the previous owner of the longsword was a senior who was a god in martial arts?
This senior used a long sword to choose an heir to inherit his martial arts?
Fu Yuanming's guess was very reasonable. Many peerless experts in the Tian Xuan Land would use all kinds of methods to pass down their martial arts when their lives were about to pass, if they did not have a suitable successor.
They usually wouldn't be willing to lose their efforts. After all, it was a way to leave behind traces of their lives.
When the seniors were about to die, the most accustomed way to pass on their martial arts was to build their own tombs and set up various tests in the tombs. If there were young people who could pass their tests, they would usually not be stingy to teach their martial arts to the outstanding younger generation!
Of course, some demonic experts might set up a death trap in the name of a test before they died, just to kill more people after death.
The most famous one was that ten years ago, the tomb of a legendary thousand-year-old demonic expert was opened.
The tomb said that the first warrior below the Xiantian Realm to pass the test of the 18th level of the tomb would inherit his legacy. He left all his inheritance and wealth in the secret chamber of the 19th level of the tomb!
The entire Southern Mountain Range's martial artists were in an uproar, surging over like a tide.
The Righteous and Demon sides fought for the entrance and continued to fight after entering the tomb.
The test on each level of the tomb was unusually cruel. Countless martial artists had died, and the corpses almost blocked the passage.
After all, demonic path martial artists had relatively cruel personalities. The peerless expert from a thousand years ago was an existence that had once destroyed an entire country by himself. It was normal for the test to be cruel.
According to the later statistics, in that battle, as many as fifty thousand martial artists below the Xiantian realm died in the tomb, and dozens of masters above the Xiantian realm died. Some sects were even completely destroyed in the "test"!
This was not the cruelest part. The cruelest part was when the crazy martial artists used their lives to forcefully pass through the 18 checkpoints, only to find that the secret chamber on the 19th floor was empty. There was only a stone coffin.
The inheritance and wealth were not in the coffin either. The coffin was empty, not even a corpse. There was only a sentence carved at the bottom of the coffin: I was just teasing you! I have countless enemies in my life, and I don't have any friends or relatives. I don't want to let anyone take advantage of me! Before I died, I threw all my wealth into the bottomless abyss of the Southern Sea Ghost Domain, so you won't get a share. If you want to burn my bones and scatter my ashes, that's impossible. If there are no accidents, I should have already set myself on fire near the Southern Sea Ghost Domain. If you can find my ashes, I'll admit defeat!
It was said that more than 20 martial artists who were present at the time were angered to death, and among them was the sect leader of a sect!
News of this matter quickly spread, and the entire continent was in an uproar!
A peerless expert with such a vile personality could be said to be the most powerful in the continent. It was rare to encounter such a person in ten thousand years!
Of course, Fu Yuanming was the one who heard about this. He didn't know if it was true or not…But he guessed that it should be true. The way demonic path martial artists did things was not something ordinary martial artists could figure out.
Because the personalities of the seniors were different, some of the methods of inheritance were also strange.
Fu Yuanming felt that the longsword in his hand was probably a rare method of inheritance.
If one needed to kill someone to obtain a cultivation technique, it was very likely that the person was a demonic sword cultivator expert. The Gale Technique might only be an ordinary cultivation technique among them, and the truly powerful cultivation technique might still be behind.
It seemed that he had to kill more people!
Along the way, he scanned the pedestrians with a cold gaze, but he still could not make up his mind.
He still couldn't bring himself to kill those innocent people he didn't know!
Maybe…maybe I'm not suitable to step into the demonic path!
Fu Yuanming couldn't help but think.
Moreover, his strength was not strong, only at the peak of the Cyclone realm. If he really wanted to start a massacre, he would probably have to be prepared to leave his hometown and have no fixed residence.
Thinking of his wife and his son, he sighed deeply.
If... if he had obtained this sword fifteen years ago, with his arm still intact and without his wife and children, he would have used the blood of countless people to activate all the inheritances in the sword without hesitation!
Now, he was too old.
However, even the Gale Technique was enough for him. As an executioner, he could quickly activate the inheritance and be safer!
Perhaps…he thought of his son, Fu Qingrong.
Chen Hao didn't know what Fu Yuanming was thinking, but even if he did, he wouldn't care.
He only wanted Fu Yuanming to know the value of the sword!
Currently, Fu Yuanming was the best sword master for him. If he wanted to find a devil-like sword master, with his identity as a top-notch mortal weapon, he had no chance at all.
He wanted to level up!
Upgrade quickly!
It wasn't every day that someone was waiting to be beheaded. However, Ironstone City was a prosperous city. There were always people who couldn't take things too hard and didn't want to live a good life.
In the first month, Fu Yuanming beheaded ten people.
In the second month, thirteen people were beheaded by Fu Yuanming and two were cut into pieces.
In the third month, fifteen people were beheaded by Fu Yuanming.
There were only five levels to the Gale Technique. By the third month, Chen Hao hadn't finished teaching it.
When Fu Yuanming had just beheaded three people, Chen Hao had passed on the first level of the Gale Technique. Later on, he decided to increase the difficulty. The third level was passed on when Fu Yuanming beheaded fifteen people.
Chen Hao was just that shameless…
In the fourth month, Fu Yuanming beheaded another thirteen prisoners. When Chen Hao finished absorbing the blood and soul of the last prisoner, the energy in his sword finally reached the requirement to level up again.
