Is it wrong to want to marry a weapon?

The young girl exuded elegance and grace, yet her face showed a sickly expression. She asked weakly, "What's wrong? Did you run into someone you know?"

The tall, slender girl was the first to respond: "Yes, we met once before."

"By the way, Vice Captain! It was this junior who stole your Windcaller Sparrow with her arrogant attitude!"

"So it was her!?" The other team members also realized and began to observe Lu Chan.

"Stop talking, we're all acquaintances now, no need to make things complicated," Xu Rong frowned slightly, then asked in a low voice:

"Young Miss, we're going to get you a new magical artifact today, so let's not keep thinking about that Wind-Calling Sparrow, okay?"

Looking at Lu Chan, the blue-haired girl blinked slightly in surprise and nodded:

"Well, it's alright. I was originally planning to keep a Windcaller as a pet anyway. Since this student needs one, I'll give it to her."

Instead, she comforted everyone:

"It's okay. I cried a few times but I'm not sad anymore. I'm fine now, so don't worry about it."

Hearing this, even Lu Chan was speechless and couldn't help but stare at the woman a few more times.

Wait, what is that...?

Just because you didn't get a Windcaller as a pet?

She cried several times...?

What kind of precious item is this?

Zijing Academy: Chapter 26: First Entry into the Spirit Forbidden Zone

Of course, Lu Chan would not feel guilty because the other person cried, nor would he care about other people's opinions of him.

She said directly to Xu Rong, "You've come at the right time. You're planning to enter the Spirit Forbidden Zone, right? Take me with you."

"what?"

Seeing that Xu Rong seemed a little dazed, Lu Chan added, "What's wrong? Do you need me to pay some price or compensate you for something before you're willing to take me in?"

No, of course not.

Xu Rong explained somewhat awkwardly, "I was just thinking that the Spirit Forbidden Zone is quite dangerous, and it might be dangerous for you to go in alone, Junior Sister Lu Chan."

"No need to worry."

"As far as I know, the Ice City Spirit Forbidden Zone is not a particularly dangerous one," Lu Chan said indifferently.

After all, it was merely a forbidden zone formed by the descent of a superior-grade spiritual artifact, far surpassing even the legendary Emperor, which possessed the power to destroy the heavens and the earth...

Ice City is merely a lowest-grade forbidden zone.

Hearing Lu Chan's casual words, Xu Rong's team members exchanged glances, all speechless.

Ice City isn't a dangerous spirit forbidden zone? That's easy for you to say. Any spirit forbidden zone, even just the edge, can be very dangerous!

They came here because the vice-captain, Miss Nanhe, had heard that there was a young Ice Soul Tiger on the edge of the Ice City Spirit Forbidden Zone and wanted to keep it as a mount. So the group specially escorted her to capture it.

If it weren't for her desire, many people would never dare to come to the Spirit Forbidden Zone.

However, everyone knows that Miss Nanhe is the granddaughter of the city lord of Beilan City, so everyone tries their best to fulfill any request she makes.

Lu Chan followed Xu Rong and the others back to the entrance of the teleportation array.

This time, since Lu Chan entered with his team, the two women guarding the gate couldn't dissuade him and had no choice but to let him pass.

One of the women cautioned, "Within the Spirit Forbidden Zone, you might encounter weapon refiners from other cities, so please be careful."

As soon as she finished speaking, she opened the portal to the teleportation array.

Wow! ! !

As the icy cold air rushed in, a breathtaking sky-blue vortex appeared before everyone's eyes!

The freezing air swept in all directions, and layers of ice fragments spread from the ground.

Even standing outside the teleportation array, everyone could feel the bone-chilling cold emanating from the entrance.

The tall girl couldn't help but feel a little apprehensive: "Apart from Captain Xu Rong, this is the first time any of us have entered the Spirit Forbidden Zone."

They had always trained in open-air training grounds; this was their first time entering the Spirit Forbidden Zone.

Xu Rong comforted him, "Don't overthink it. The edge of the Spirit Forbidden Zone mostly contains mid-grade spiritual artifacts. Unless there are special circumstances, it's impossible to encounter high-grade spiritual artifacts. Besides, there won't be any danger if so many of us go in together."

"Use spiritual energy to protect yourself before entering the teleportation array."

Xu Rong said.

She had previously entered the Spirit Forbidden Zone with members of the previous Zijing team, so she was quite familiar with the place now.

She was the first to step into the vortex.

Seeing this, everyone followed suit and went inside.

Only Lu Chan, who was at the back, did not rush to step in. She first put her fingers into the icy blue vortex.

In that instant, her white, snow-white eyebrows furrowed, and her pale purple eyes narrowed in a flash.

"how so……"

"How could there be the aura of that thing within this Ice City Spirit Forbidden Zone?"

"I see, so that's how it is."

After a long silence, Lu Chan smiled faintly and said calmly, "No wonder a mere top-grade spiritual weapon could create such a forbidden spiritual zone."

As soon as she finished speaking, she stepped into the vortex.

After passing through the teleportation array in the Spirit Forbidden Zone...

In an instant, her little purple cloth boots stepped onto a layer of frozen snow.

Before me lay a frozen, icy forest, covered with towering ice trees that seemed to reach into the clouds, with snowflakes falling gently.

"Thank you very much, then I'll take my leave first," Lu Chan said simply, then turned and left.

Seeing that Lu Chanzhen was planning to act alone, everyone shook their heads helplessly.

She's determined to die, and no one can stop her.

Only Miss Nanhe seemed oblivious to the dangers of the Spirit Forbidden Zone. She actually waved earnestly at Lu Chan and said softly, "See you later, Lu Chan."

---------

---------

Walking in the heavy snow, Lu Chan's long, snow-white hair was quickly covered with a layer of snowflakes.

Strangely, the purple scorpion braid at the end of her hair swayed back and forth like a windshield wiper, constantly swatting away the snowflakes on the ends.

While clearing away the snow with the ends of his hair, Lu Chan summoned the Storm Sword.

In her hand appeared a silver longsword wreathed in cyan flames.

At that moment, the cold wind in the air seemed to be attracted by the Storm Sword, and a large amount of spiritual energy followed, quickly forming a firefly on the sword.

The spiritual energy here is much more abundant than in the outside world.

Even if it doesn't absorb the remnants in the Spirit Forbidden Zone, the spiritual artifact will automatically recover its spiritual energy and remain in a saturated state.

"The spiritual energy in the Ice City Spiritual Forbidden Zone is about three times that of the outside world."

Lu Chan analyzed softly.

Compared to the nervousness of Xu Rong and the others, she was almost completely unmoved. After all, she had entered different forbidden zones countless times in her previous life, so it wasn't much different from going home.

In reality, most of the geniuses in the Divine Land enter the Spirit Forbidden Zone for training as soon as they awaken their spiritual weapons, unlike now where they have such a comfortable virtual battle.

After walking for about the time it takes to burn an incense stick through the snow-covered landscape, Lu Chan finally saw the first magical weapon. She stopped and calmly grasped the hilt of the Storm Sword.

Behind the trees...

A silver spear entwined with ice flowers patrolled the air, floating past trees and flying straight toward Lu Chan.

[Mid-grade Mutant Spiritual Weapon: Whirlwind Spear - Icefall]

Lu Chan did not draw his sword immediately.

She waited for the mutated whirlwind gun to fly closer, but made no move, simply standing quietly in place.

To obtain a complete spiritual embryo, one must not harm the spiritual artifact, but rather allow the artifact to recognize its master on its own.

Once a spiritual artifact is severely damaged or even dies, it can only become a broken spiritual embryo; therefore, a complete spiritual embryo is much harder to obtain than a broken one.

Seeing Lu Chan's relatively gentle expression, the Whirlwind Spear trembled slightly, as if giving a response, and gradually moved closer to the front.

And in the very next second...

boom! ! !

The whirlwind spear, which suddenly accelerated, transformed into a streak of ice and swiftly pierced towards Lu Chan's chest.

"Chong"

Lu Chan also drew his Storm Sword in an instant, and the cyan sword light slashed out diagonally, cleaving the Whirlwind Spear in two.

After the first strike, she sheathed the Storm Sword again and said coldly, "You're courting death."

Zijing Academy: Chapter 27: Aurora

A remnant of a wind-elemental embryo, radiating an icy light, appeared in the air.

Lu Chan sheathed the Storm Sword and murmured softly, "While wind-type spiritual weapons aren't exactly gentle, this is just too violent...?"

"Thinking about it this way, it's very likely that all the spiritual artifacts here have been corrupted by the Spirit Forbidden Zone, turning into these violent entities."

"In that case, obtaining a complete spirit embryo within the Ice City Spirit Forbidden Zone is unrealistic..." 5

"Fine, let's go on a killing spree then."

A cold glint flashed in Lu Chan's eyes. He figured he could just collect enough remnants and then sell them for money; it wouldn't matter anyway.

Thinking of this, she headed towards the abandoned town ahead. Along the way, she saw buildings frozen in ice, and the air was thick with a chilling cold.

After exploring the peripheral area for a while, she more or less confirmed her conjecture. 6

The spiritual artifacts within the Ice City Spiritual Forbidden Zone were indeed all behaving abnormally violently.

As Lu Chan stepped into an abandoned building, before she could even look around, a giant sword hidden in the shadows flew out and pierced through her blind spot without warning.

Lu Chan didn't even glance at it, drew his sword and slashed out, using an arc of cyan sword light to blast the giant sword away.

Putting away the damaged embryos, Lu Chan recorded as usual: "Two damaged wind-type spiritual embryos, five damaged ice-type spiritual embryos, and three damaged fire-type spiritual embryos."

"This method of collection is still a bit slow. Complete high-grade spirit embryos at auctions all start at astronomical prices."

Lu Chan was somewhat dissatisfied.

Of course, she also knew that her collection speed was already fast enough.

Most weapon refiners still have a sense of awe towards the Spirit Forbidden Zone, so they will choose to follow a team or team up with other weapon refiners to enter the Spirit Forbidden Zone.

They moved very cautiously, were extremely inefficient, and had to share the rewards among many people.

After spending several days working on it, getting ten defective embryos would be considered pretty good.

Just then, Lu Chan suddenly raised his head and glanced at the top floor of the abandoned building.

The tilted, ice-blue building had collapsed, and its highest point was now only a few dozen meters. After a moment of contemplation, she leaped upwards, using the collapsed railings as landing points, and within a few breaths, she reached the top floor of the building.

Standing by the railing and looking down, Lu Chan could see a large portion of the abandoned city and a large number of mid-grade spiritual artifacts wandering around.

"This terrain is not bad."

"It's a good place to warm up."

Lu Chan sheathed the Storm Sword and summoned a silver sun wheel wreathed in purple electric arcs.

【Heavenly Dance Wheel - Thunderclap】

The next second, as if performing a musical piece, she gracefully began to spin the Heavenly Dance Wheel.

Whoosh! Tianwu spun out crescent-shaped rays of light, swirling around her body like a tornado.

"Crackling"
