Is it wrong to want to marry a weapon?

Zijing Academy: Chapter 18: Heavenly Dance Wheel - Thunderclap

Lu Chan sat in the private room, examining the information of the ten complete spiritual embryos.

【Sky Dance Wheel】

[A mid-grade wind-type spiritual weapon in the shape of a sun wheel]

Among all types of magical artifacts, the Sun Wheel is one of the most difficult to control.

Many weapon refiners spend years trying to learn it but fail, and in the end they have no choice but to give up, their efforts in vain.

This kind of magical artifact has an absurdly high upper limit.

This has led to many blindly confident people who want to use the Sun Wheel weapon to show off, but they usually end up in a miserable state.

Lu Chan picked up a spirit embryo, infused it with spiritual energy, and began to examine its information.

As a mid-grade spiritual artifact, each complete spiritual embryo comes with two innate talents.

[Heavenly Dance Wheel Spirit Embryo, Talents: 1. Surface Freezing, 2. Ultra-High Speed]

[Heavenly Dance Wheel Spirit Embryo: 1. Ultra-high speed, 2. Spirit absorption]

[Heavenly Dance Wheel Embryo: 1. Sharp, 2. Hard]

【Tianwu Wheel Embryo: 1. High surface temperature, 2. Sharpness】

【Tianwu Wheel Embryo: 1. Ultra-high speed, 2. Gold-plated surface】

[Heavenly Dance Wheel Embryo: 1. Toxicity, 2. Surface Icing]

[Mutated Celestial Dance Wheel Spirit Embryo: 1. Absorb Spirit, 2. Tear Wounds]

[Heavenly Dance Wheel Embryo: 1. Toxicity, 2. Sharpness]

[Tianwu Wheel Embryo: 1. High Surface Temperature, 2. Ultra-High Speed]

[Heavenly Dance Wheel Embryo: 1. Destruction, 2. Rotation Acceleration]

"Oh?"

Upon seeing the last spirit embryo, Lu Chan's pale purple eyes narrowed slightly, revealing a look of surprise.

She was lucky; she originally thought that the 50,000 yuan she had prepared wouldn't be enough to unlock the talent she wanted, and she just wanted to test the waters.

Since that's the case, let's just keep refreshing until we're satisfied today.

Lu Chan put away the two spirit embryos and said to the waiter waiting outside the door, "I want to keep these two spirit embryos, sell the other eight, and then bring me twenty more Heavenly Dance Wheel spirit embryos."

"If you don't have enough money, I have ten damaged mid-grade wind-type spirit embryos here. You can take them all."

As soon as he finished speaking, Lu Chan took out the spoils he had acquired at the open-air training base.

She had considered the possibility of running out of funds when she was hunting, so she kept some to sell.

"Okay, but I need to record the information about these ten spirit embryos."

The waitress operated the electronic screen for a while, recording the spiritual artifacts that Lu Chan had given up and chosen. Suddenly, she stopped what she was doing.

Somewhat bewildered, she asked, "Your luck is just too good, guest, isn't it, with a lightning-type mutated Heavenly Dance Wheel Spirit Embryo?"

"But...excuse my bluntness, aren't there many useful talents among them?"

"According to the Heavenly Dance Wheel's strategy guide, you should keep the spirit embryos with the talents of sharpness and tearing wounds. Moreover... I've heard that the Heavenly Dance Wheel's surface high temperature and surface gold plating talents are also very powerful when combined."

The waitress didn't quite understand why Lu Chan wanted to keep the last spiritual embryo.

Destruction and accelerated rotation?

No matter how you look at it... it's impossible to tell which talent she wants. You know, destruction is one of the most useless talents of the Heavenly Dance Wheel.

Not to mention the speed of rotation; is it really possible for a living person to control such a bizarre talent?

If you equip it with this negative enhancement talent, it will become a useless magical artifact, won't it?

If you want speed so badly, why not choose ultra-high speed?

Listening to the talent combinations the waitress mentioned, Lu Chan couldn't help but roll his eyes, thinking to himself, "What kind of trash could come up with such a garbage strategy?"

But she had no time to explain to a waiter, and simply shook her head: "I have my own ideas. Please bring out the rest of the spirit embryos as well."

The time it takes for an incense stick to burn has passed.

After examining all thirty Heavenly Dance Wheel Spirit Embryos, Lu Chan finally selected the talent combination he truly desired.

She left behind a total of three spirit embryos.

[Mid-grade wind-type spiritual artifact, mutated Heavenly Dance Wheel spiritual embryo, talents: 1. Spirit Absorption, 2. Tear Wound]

[Mid-grade Wind-type Spiritual Artifact, Heavenly Dance Wheel Spiritual Embryo, Talents: 1 Destruction, 2 Rotation Acceleration]

[Mid-grade wind-type spiritual weapon, Heavenly Dance Wheel Spirit Embryo, Talents: 1 Sharpness, 2 Off-axis Factor]

Off-axis factors

Finally, he found this extremely rare talent among the thirty spirit embryos, and a faint smile appeared on Lu Chan's lips.

She could already imagine how terrifying a weapon she was about to create would be; under her control, this magical artifact would far surpass the category of a mid-grade magical artifact.

Under the puzzled gaze of the waitress, Lu Chan left [Yu Feng Pavilion] with three spirit embryos and quickly opened a refining room.

A blue-green incense burner exudes a rustic tea aroma.

Lu Chan sat down cross-legged and took out three spiritual embryos.

Two of them had a silvery crystal luster and were quite elegant, while the third spirit embryo had faint purple arcs of electricity wrapped around its silver crystal surface.

It was clearly a wind-type spirit embryo, yet it seemed to have been baptized in a thunder pool, constantly emitting the sounds of lightning and thunder.

This is a rare mutated spirit embryo; it's quite an unexpected bonus to have managed to obtain it by chance.

If this mutated spirit embryo weren't the extremely rare Heavenly Dance Wheel spirit embryo, it probably would have been auctioned off directly.

What Lu Chan needs to do next is to refine this mutated spiritual embryo into a brand new spiritual weapon.

First of all, refining a complete spiritual embryo into a spiritual weapon is an innate instinct of all weapon refiners; after all, everyone has personally experienced this process since the moment they awakened their natal spiritual weapon and the spiritual energy was generated in their bodies.

As for the other two spirit embryos, they were used to replace the original talent of this spirit embryo.

Replacing the talent of the same spirit embryo is a fairly basic operation.

This method is generally taught in weapon crafting academies.

Lu Chan poured a wisp of spiritual energy into the furnace, igniting a flame.

Then, she first threw in the mutated spirit embryo wrapped in electric arcs, observed its condition, and after a few dozen seconds, threw the remaining two spirit embryos to the edge of the furnace.

Under the intense heat of the flames, the other two spirit embryos gradually moved closer to the one in the middle and merged together.

Soon, the panel of the spirit embryo changed.

[Mid-grade Wind-type, Mutated Heavenly Dance Wheel Spirit Embryo]

[Talent: Rotational Acceleration, Off-Axis Factor]

Rotational acceleration: The rotational speed of the sun disc will continuously increase due to rotation time and friction.

Off-axis factor: Increases the instability of the sun wheel. The faster the speed, the more unstable it becomes. And the more unstable it becomes, the more its gravity and power will increase linearly.

To a normal person, rotational acceleration and off-axis factors are absolutely negative factors that hinder talent development. You should know that the Heavenly Dance Wheel is already difficult to control, and it is impossible to use it without ten or eight years of training.

Therefore, combining these two negative increases—that make controlling magical artifacts more difficult—is simply unimaginable...

I'm afraid it will fly away in less than five seconds if you hold it in your hand, and disappear as soon as you touch it.

If someone dares to use these two talents, the weapon refiner will probably have to perform how to recycle spiritual weapons in front of everyone.

Therefore, as the waitress thought, the combination of high surface temperature and gold plating, sharp edges and tearing wounds is the first choice for most users of the Sky Dance Wheel.

Using this combination of talents, even if the weapon refiner is not very proficient with the Sun Wheel, they can still inflict damage on the enemy.

Unfortunately, in Lu Chan's opinion, the guy who could come up with such a talent strategy was somewhat lacking and didn't deserve to use a sun-wheel type weapon at all.

After a long time of maintaining the infusion of spiritual energy, the refining process finally reached its final step.

At the same time, Lu Chan inadvertently glanced at the divine embryo of the River of Oblivion within his body.

The terrifying spiritual embryo, which was filled with a deep, dark color and resembled a black hole, was burning with purple flames and seemed to have recovered some of its energy.

"You've recovered quite a bit. Is this the allure of a miracle?"

Lu Chan murmured softly.

Unexpectedly, the recovery speed of the Wangchuan Spirit Embryo was quite fast, which meant that I could use its energy again.

But does she really want to infuse this Heavenly Dance Wheel, which is perfect to her, with the energy of the River of Oblivion?

The unpredictability surrounding the spiritual embryo of the River of Oblivion is simply too great...

She wasn't sure if this newly created spiritual artifact could withstand the spiritual energy of the River of Oblivion. If the spiritual embryo collapsed, all her efforts in refining it would be for nothing.

A few seconds later, Lu Chan closed his pale purple eyes and finally gave up using the Wangchuan spirit embryo.

The Storm Sword has already been tainted by the aura of the River of Oblivion. She doesn't want her second spiritual weapon to be tainted by the River of Oblivion as well. The spiritual essence of the River of Oblivion... should be used to enhance the Storm Sword.

As the flames gradually subsided.

The forging of the magical artifact is complete.

"buzzing"

A sun wheel, entirely snow-silver in color, crackling with purple electric arcs and chanting thunderous sounds, rose from the furnace and spun.

Its surface is engraved with patterns of intertwined wind and thunder, showcasing a dreamlike beauty.

Almost the instant the magical weapon took shape, Lu Chan stretched out two fingers and pinched its blade. Before Tianwu Lun could resist, Lu Chan poured all his spiritual energy into it.

A few seconds later, the Heavenly Dance Wheel gradually became illusory and disappeared into the air.

Instead……

Within Lu Chan's body appeared a crystal spirit embryo wreathed in electric arcs. This was his second spiritual weapon, the Heavenly Dance Wheel, which he had personally crafted.

[Mid-grade Wind-type, Mutated Spiritual Weapon]

【Heavenly Dance Wheel - Thunderclap】

[Talent: Rotational Acceleration, Off-Axis Factor]

[Mutant Talent: Thunder Sound]

[Spiritual Skills: None]

[Spirit Forging, Unmodified]

In the blink of an eye, Lu Chan summoned the Heavenly Dance Wheel again. She gently stroked the edge of the Heavenly Dance Wheel, feeling the aura of this newly created spiritual weapon.

"Buzz buzz buzz buzz buzz buzz"

The Heavenly Dance Wheel also trembled softly, as if familiarizing itself with the temperature of its master's skin, revealing a mix of timidity and excitement.

Lu Chan said softly, "I am very satisfied with your qualities. It seems there is no need for deliberate training."

Upon hearing this, Lu Chan could feel the Storm Sword's spiritual embryo within her body tremble inexplicably, as if it had generated a trace of jealousy.

Of course, she wouldn't care about such a minor emotional issue as the magical artifact.

Only when a sense of competition is generated can a magical artifact withstand higher-grade magical techniques and magical forging, and thus gain more improvement.

Just like his two strongest spiritual weapons in his previous life, Dao Hua Xi Feng and Mie Que Qing Xiao fought against each other for decades and even had an earth-shattering civil war.

Lu Chan even suspected that... after her death, a world-destroying war had taken place between them.

The Azure Sky has fallen into slumber, but the Daoist West Wind has inexplicably invaded the Holy Land.

So, did Dao Hua Xi Feng ultimately win?

With a myriad of thoughts swirling in his mind, Lu Chan put away the Heavenly Dance Wheel and left the refining room.

With her new magical artifact, Lu Chan didn't rush to dominate the virtual battle zone, because she was a little hungry and needed to eat first.
