In King Ashoka's hands was the Demon Sword of Abi Hell, a top-tier item among ninth-rank demon weapons, infinitely close to the tenth rank demon weapon level.
For King Ashoka, a disciple of Buddhism, this demon weapon was of no use to him. Even if he turned it over to his sect, the reward he could receive would not match the worth of this flying sword.
He had long spread the news that he would trade this Demon Sword of Abi Hell to anyone who could find him any section of the Past Solemn Scripture, and they would also earn his friendship.
The value of any branch of the Past Solemn Scripture was higher than that of the Demon Sword of Abi Hell, but Ashoka's friendship had some value. Many forces wanted to build a closer relationship with this number one expert of Buddhism.
