Jade Dynasty: I am the master of the Burning Sword, my swordsmanship is unparalleled.

Chapter 11 Blood Refining Magic Treasures, Azure Heaven and Yellow Springs
With his mind at ease, Zhang Xiaofan no longer hesitated and walked towards the secluded pool, turning to Tian Ling'er as he spoke.

"Senior sister, take Little Grey and stay away. Soul-Stealing is fierce, and there might be danger later."

"Xiao Fan, be careful. If things get too difficult, go back to my father."

Looking at Zhang Xiaofan's back, which now exuded a sharper aura, Tian Ling'er felt a surge of joy and spoke in a sweet voice.

After saying that, Tian Ling'er grabbed Xiao Hui by the neck, picked him up, and retreated into the forest, clearly harboring some thoughts of revenge.

After falling into Tian Ling'er's hands, Xiao Hui realized that its situation was not good. It immediately became very obedient, did not struggle, and did not scream for help. It simply followed Tian Ling'er into the forest.

Arriving at the edge of the pool, Zhang Xiaofan looked up at the center of the pool, where there was a pile of rocks, with only a few of them protruding above the water. Among the rocks, a short, dark-colored stick was stuck diagonally, protruding a foot above the water.

Zhang Xiaofan raised his hand and channeled a burst of magical power, drawing it towards the Soul-Seizing Staff. Under Zhang Xiaofan's guidance, the Soul-Seizing Staff slowly began to move.

However, the next moment, the Soul-Capturing Staff seemed to be enraged, and a surge of malevolent energy was released from it.

"Humph!"

Zhang Xiaofan snorted coldly, and the Burning Sword on his back suddenly flew out, turning into a red light and falling from the sky. It stood in mid-air on the Soul-Seizing Staff, and a fierce aura emanated from the Burning Sword, pressing the Soul-Seizing Staff so that it could not move.

While the Soul-Seizing Staff is indeed extremely sinister, the Fenji's malevolent and evil aura is even more so and far more domineering, making it impossible for the Soul-Seizing Staff to resist.

In the entire world, the only sword that can rival the Burning Sword is the Immortal Execution Sword, the most treasured artifact of the Qingyun Sect, which is said to have the power to create the heavens and earth.

Under the ferocious power of the Burning Sword, the Soul-Seizing Staff had no choice but to retreat step by step. Zhang Xiaofan was preparing to refine it when a sudden change occurred.

"call out!"

A deep purple light suddenly flew out from Zhang Xiaofan's arms and struck the Burning Sword directly, knocking the Burning Sword, which was originally suppressing the Soul-Seizing Staff, away.

That deep purple light was the Bloodthirsty Bead on Zhang Xiaofan's body.

This sudden turn of events startled Zhang Xiaofan, but he reacted quickly, immediately forming a sword incantation with both hands, and the Burning Sword flew back to forcefully suppress the Soul-Seizing Staff and the Blood-Devouring Bead.

But at that moment, the Bloodthirsty Bead emitted a strange fluctuation, which startled Zhang Xiaofan slightly.

Just as Zhang Xiaofan was stunned, a special suction force emanated from the Blood-Devouring Bead, and then the essence blood in Zhang Xiaofan's body was drawn by the Blood-Devouring Bead.

After realizing what was happening, Zhang Xiaofan hesitated for a moment but did not stop it, allowing the Blood-Devouring Bead to extract several streams of essence blood from his body.

Because, from that fluctuation just now, Zhang Xiaofan sensed the Bloodthirsty Bead's intention to submit, as well as a faint sense of fear.

For the past three years, Zhang Xiaofan has been using the Burning Sword to suppress the Bloodthirsty Bead every day, so that he can draw blood energy from the bead to cultivate his physique.

As the spirit of the Burning Sword, Zhang Xiaofan naturally possessed the aura of the Burning Sword, but he did not have the fierce power of the Burning Sword. Although the Bloodthirsty Bead was wary of him, it was not overly afraid of him.

But the Burning Sword is different. To the Bloodthirsty Bead, the Burning Sword is a bully who bullies it every day. The Bloodthirsty Bead is terrified of the Burning Sword because it is constantly being bullied by it.

Therefore, when the Burning Sword was suppressing the Soul-Seizing Staff, the Bloodthirsty Bead launched a sneak attack to find an ally so that it would no longer be bullied by the Burning Sword.

The Soul-Seizing Staff, which had managed to withstand the ferocity of the Burning Sword for so long, was undoubtedly a formidable ally. However, the Bloodthirsty Beads, having been tormented by the Burning Sword for so long, knew that even if they joined forces with the Soul-Seizing Staff, they might not be a match for the Burning Sword. Therefore, they needed to rely on something similar to the Burning Sword.

Zhang Xiaofan, who possesses the same aura as the Burning Sword, is undoubtedly the one he can rely on. That is why the Bloodthirsty Bead actively drew upon Zhang Xiaofan's essence and blood, wanting him to refine it.

After the essence blood flew out, the Blood-Devouring Bead and the Soul-Seizing Staff were actively enveloped by the essence blood. As the essence blood gradually merged with the two ferocious objects, a faint connection was also formed between Zhang Xiaofan and the Blood-Devouring Bead and the Soul-Seizing Staff.

Then, to Zhang Xiaofan's surprise, a dark blue flame suddenly appeared on the surface of the Soul-Seizing Staff, igniting the essence blood covering it and scorching both the Soul-Seizing Staff and the Blood-Devouring Bead.

Under the burning of the ghostly flames, the Soul-Seizing Staff and the Blood-Devouring Bead began to merge together. The extremely yin and evil energy of the Soul-Seizing Staff gradually blended with the extremely fierce and malevolent energy of the Blood-Devouring Bead.

An extremely malevolent, wicked, and ferocious artifact is slowly taking shape.

As he gazed at the strange treasures taking shape before him, Zhang Xiaofan, who had just sheathed the Burning Sword, suddenly had a thought. Then he saw that the two strange treasures were beginning to change in the way he had envisioned.

Immediately, Zhang Xiaofan no longer hesitated, his hands forming hand seals continuously, and the appearance of the Soul-Seizing Staff and the Blood-Devouring Bead in mid-air began to change constantly.

A full hour later, the ghostly flames finally went out, and at that moment, a brand new magical artifact appeared before Zhang Xiaofan's eyes.

The magical artifact was shaped like a thin rod, long and hollow, about two and a half feet long, with many holes on it. At the other end of the rod hung a string of tassels, with a deep purple jade bead strung in the middle.

This was clearly a long flute.

Zhang Xiaofan is proficient in the art of music, but he had almost never touched it before. Now that he has attained enlightenment, he naturally intends to pick up the art of music again.

After seeing Zhang Xiaofan successfully refine the magic weapon, Tian Ling'er also flew out of the forest. She casually threw Xiao Hui on the ground and looked at the long flute in Zhang Xiaofan's hand with a look of surprise.

"Xiao Fan, why did you get a long flute? Can you play it?"

"I'm quite curious about the art of music. If I don't know it, I can just go back and learn it."

Zhang Xiaofan chuckled softly upon hearing this and reached out to tuck the long flute into his waistband.

Interestingly, the magical artifacts of the disciples of Dazhu Peak are all different in style. The eldest brother, Song Daren, has a celestial sword, the fourth brother, He Dazhi, has a pen, and Tian Ling'er's magical artifact is an amber brocade.

Aside from the Burning Sword that he already possessed, Zhang Xiaofan's other magical artifact, which he personally crafted, was a long flute.

If, not long after, Sixth Senior Brother Du Bishu were to descend the mountain and forge a dice-based magic weapon, that would truly be a 'hundred flowers blooming' event.

"That's true. By the way, Xiao Fan, what's the name of your magic weapon?"

Tian Ling'er glanced at Zhang Xiaofan with a flickering gaze. In fact, she had seen the Bloodthirsty Bead when it appeared, but she neither asked nor said anything, treating it as her junior brother's secret.

Its name is "Azure Heaven and Yellow Springs!"

Zhang Xiaofan didn't use the name "Soul Seizer" not because he intentionally avoided it, but because he disliked such a fierce name.

Zhang Xiaofan, who has merged with the immortal soul of Prince Changqin, naturally possesses the elegance of Prince Changqin.
