Fairy, return my flying sword to me

Chapter 126: Spectral Sword Box
Putting aside some upgraded versions of the second and third grade magic tools that he had seen before, Lin Jian indeed saw several new types of fourth grade magic tools.

As the grade of magic tools increases, they can perform more and more functions. The options for fourth-grade magic tools are much more than those for third-grade magic tools.

There are many interesting magical instruments in the forest——

[Genjin Bone-Piercing Sword Rings: Nine serrated gold rings, forged from hundred-refined Gengjin and Pangolin Demon Pills, are engraved with barbed wire. They can be used with flying swords to enhance their power. Characteristic One (Spiral Armor Breaking) enhances the effectiveness of large-scale armor breaking, dealing additional damage to earth-based defensive spells. Characteristic Two (Bone-Eroding Poison) releases a gold-melting poison upon a successful hit, continuously eroding the target's physical strength while attacking the heart with a golden evil aura.]
[Sword Soul Mingxiao Pendant: A sword-shaped jade pendant with a turquoise-gold sword tassel, sealed within it is the remnant soul of a sword cultivator. Special Feature 1 (Human-Sword Synchronization): The range of spiritual control is extended to three miles, and the flying sword's directional speed is increased by 50%. Three fixed sword moves can be preset. Special Feature 2 (Remnant Soul Warning): When encountering a fatal attack, the remnant soul automatically takes over the flying sword to block it. It can withstand up to a full-strength attack from a third-level Jindan cultivator. After a successful block, the jade pendant will crack, and can withstand up to three attacks (after which, it needs to be repaired with Tongling Jade Marrow supplemented with Qingxin Lotus Dew).]
Wanfeng Lightning Blade Scabbard: A bronze scabbard with a lightning crystal embedded in its tip. Aspect One (Storing Thunder into a Blade) absorbs and stores lightning within the sheath (up to three charges). When the sword is drawn, it unleashes a lightning blade slash, dealing a wide range of damage and inflicting a paralyzing effect. Aspect Two (Golden Thunder Resonance) allows flying sword attacks in areas of dense moisture to carry a jumping arc, slightly increasing damage against water-based cultivators.
What a good thing...

It's all good stuff.

Everyone in the forest was drooling.

The Gengjin Bone-Piercing Sword Ring can temporarily solve the dilemma of Lin Jian's insufficient attack power due to his low realm. The sword ring and the sword are produced together, and the frost armor like Bai Lingshuang's last time can be broken with a single finger.

The Jianpo Mingxiao Pei can increase the distance of controlling the flying sword from three meters to three miles, which means one can truly become a sword immortal who can take the enemy's head from thousands of miles away.

Not to mention that this thing also comes with an additional self-protection effect, which can block the full-strength attack of a third-level Jindan cultivator, and may save your life at a critical moment.

And Wan Feng's Thunder Sword Scabbard is even more handsome. Drawing the sword and the thunder blade is both powerful and handsome.

Fighting in a place with dense moisture means releasing electric arcs all the time. Doesn't this mean that there is a mage of the same level next to you who is always casting electric arc spells?

It’s so cool just thinking about it.

But Lin Jian's gaze was still drawn to the last magical weapon and he couldn't move his eyes away—

[Sword Case: A narrow, dark case crafted from black iron, etched with the Big Dipper pattern. When unfolded, it reveals seven projections of alternating real and imaginary sword energy. Feature One (Thousand Blades Return to One): The seven sword shadows merge into a Broken Army Sword Aura, capable of penetrating up to the first level of Nascent Soul's protective Qi, and can then be split into forty-nine smaller sword beams covering a ten-foot radius. Feature Two (Star Track Protection): Unattacked sword shadows automatically form a Xuanji Sword Formation to block any attack. Each sword shadow dissipates after neutralizing a full-strength attack from a second-level Golden Core (after dissipating, the sword shadows must be nurtured with Ether Platinum Essence Powder).]
Compared with other magic weapons, this sword box not only brings out the ultimate characteristics of sword cultivation, but also makes up for the self-protection ability that is most lacking in the forest.

Lin Jian was in a very bad state facing the Bone Demon's Yinfeng Blade, but fortunately he was teaming up with someone, and the person he teamed up with was willing to block the blade for him.

But how many good people in the world are willing to take the blame for you?

If I encounter a similar situation again, I can't just run away.

But Lin Jian didn't want to choose a purely defensive magic weapon. Just taking a beating was not his style. This kind of offensive and defensive magic weapon was most to his liking.

You are the one!

The five people who had chosen their own magic weapons seemed very happy. Looking at the joy on the faces of the five young disciples, Chuan Gong couldn't help but pour a basin of cold water on them.

"A fourth-grade magical weapon is still too much for you right now. Improving your cultivation as quickly as possible is what you need to do most right now. Don't rely too much on external forces. Using a fourth-grade magical weapon when you're only in the Foundation Establishment stage is a disaster rather than a blessing."

Seeing Yun Feiyang take a step forward, Chuan Gong, who wanted to show off in advance, interrupted his plan, "Shut up! Refine the fourth-grade magic weapon first, then talk. Do you really think that a fourth-grade magic weapon is as easy to refine as the third-grade magic weapon you got before? Magical weapons are not like flying swords. They have sword spirits to assist them. Every level of magic weapon upgrade puts a lot of pressure on the spiritual consciousness. If you have the ability, refine and nourish the magic weapon first..."

Before he could finish his words, he saw Lin Jian trying to speak again.

The master was anxious, "Shut up! Go practice! I'm tired of you!"

What's going on with this class of disciples? Are there so many troublemakers?

……

"When are we leaving?" Li Qingyu looked towards Lin Jian expectantly after leaving the Xuanji Treasury. "Wait two more days." Lin Jian went to find Xiang Zhenyang's residence.

He has already advanced to the second level of foundation building, but he has not yet mastered the techniques suitable for gold-attribute sword cultivators to practice at the second level of foundation building.

There are many choices of spells, but the spells that are suitable for a route must be connected to each other, either strengthening the advantages or making up for the weaknesses.

People have limited energy and limited choices in battle. Something that is easy to use and convenient is always better than a bunch of fancy things.

Following Zhenyang's suggestion, Linjian brought back three new techniques.

They are: "Thousand Blade Flying Stars", "Sharp Sword Pupils", and "Golden Lock Prison Dragon Formation".

Thousand Blade Flying Stars is the large-scale destructive magic that Lin Jian has always been thinking about.

With a raise of the hand, one can send out a dense golden sword energy covering an area of ​​five meters, and it has a certain extra penetrating power for the protective true qi. After practicing to perfection, the range can be expanded.

The disadvantage is naturally that the damage to a single target is not even as good as a normal attack.

But how could a cultivator in the Foundation Establishment Stage really want this or that? Having a method was good enough; at least it could quickly clear out the miscellaneous soldiers who were far inferior to him.

As for the Sharp Sword Pupil, it is an enhanced application of the Sharp Pupil, which can detect the enemy's weak points in true qi during battle.

The effect may not be very good, but it can occasionally work wonders.

As for the final Golden Lock Dragon Prison Formation… it sounds like a formation, but it’s actually just a means of trapping the enemy in actual combat.

Unlike the White Tiger Roaring Sky Formation, it does not need to be set up in advance. Instead, sword energy is swung out during battle to weave a golden cage to trap the opponent, while also having a certain effect of suppressing true energy.

It sounds like there are some similarities with the Konghen given by Chunxue. Perhaps this is also the reason why Jianhen must reach the second level of foundation building before he can start practicing control.

The joint progress of true qi and spiritual consciousness facilitated the leap from the first level of foundation building to the second level of foundation building.

Only when these conditions are met can one practice these more advanced techniques.

Thinking of the White Tiger Roaring Sky Formation, Lin Jian also thought of the Eight Desolate Fire Dragon Curse that was cast by Senior Sister Sun Qinghan during the battle.

It was a formation similar to the White Tiger Roaring Sky Formation, but she could set it up directly during battle using talismans. This was much more elegant than the awkward position she had in facing the Bone Demon, where she needed someone else to support her in setting up the formation.

If I can learn this trick, can I use the White Tiger Roaring Sky Formation, my current most powerful weapon, directly in a head-on encounter?

I just don't know if this technique is her own creation, or if it is a magic technique that all the magic practitioners have studied in depth.

Is it difficult to learn? Do I need to be a Dharma practitioner to have a chance to learn it?

Go ask her.
