Is it wrong to want to marry a weapon?

Having fully charged up his power, Lu Chan drew his sword and slashed.

For a moment...

A terrifying fan-shaped beam of light slashed wildly along the ground, sweeping across the surrounding land and forests until it enveloped the view dozens of meters away. Zhao Xinglu, who was stunned, was instantly swallowed up by the sword energy.

The deafening sound of swords clashing echoed through the forest, causing the other weapon refiners to turn their gazes toward Lu Chan.

Half a minute later.

As the sword energy slowly dissipated.

Looking at the devastated terrain before him, Lu Chan slowly sheathed his Storm Sword.

"Ding!"

A few seconds later, the eight weapon refiners who had been notified simultaneously opened their battle record panels, and their pupils widened in surprise.

Zhao Xinglu's avatar turned gray, indicating she was killed!

Even more inexplicably, Lu Chan, who defeated Zhao Xinglu, went offline not long after... force-quit?

Wait, why is it that a weapon refiner wielding a Storm Sword can defeat Zhao Xinglu and Bai Yushuanglong, the superstar weapon refiners of the Broken Sky Academy?

After winning, they immediately forced a withdrawal?

The tense atmosphere of the forest battlefield left eight innocent players bewildered.

-

Duan Tian Yuan:

Emerging from the luxurious training room equipment, Zhao Xinglu knelt on one knee with a "thud," her hands tightly covering her face, trembling uncontrollably, her pupils contracting violently.

Compared to the pain of death, the fear emanating from Bai Yushuanglong's will made her waver even more.

"Baiyu Shuanglong, I can feel your fear and despair!"

"What exactly did you feel in that instant...?"

In fact, before she realized that something was wrong, Zhao Xinglu had already prepared to put Bai Yushuanglong back into its sheath. Unfortunately, Bai Yushuanglong was unable to synchronize with her.

It was as if it had lost its own control and was no longer its own magical artifact.

"First Storm Sword"

Zhao Xinglu glanced at the ID and remained silent for a long time.

Zijing Academy: Chapter 10: Spirit Forging

After defeating the Moonlight-type weapon refiner who wielded the White Jade Frost Dragon, Lu Chan immediately quit the game and started the next exciting match.

Anyway, she was just here to test her spiritual skills, to see if anyone could resist the combination of ten times the power and the Soul Suppression, and to estimate the upper limit of ten times the power.

The Soul Suppression skill can only cause one magical weapon to lose control at a time. If you encounter a weapon refiner who has more than one magical weapon, or multiple targets, then the tenfold power charge will definitely not be usable.

"Tenfold Power Accumulation"

"Ten times the power..."

And so, whenever Lu Chan used her ten times power to instantly kill an opponent, she would immediately quit the game and start the next round.

Improve your proficiency with the Storm Sword through continuous practice.

A day passed... In the virtual battles, countless players who were instantly killed by ten times the charged attack were filled with great doubt. 5

"That's about enough, let's leave it like this for now."

As night approached, Lu Chan turned off the virtual battle equipment and left the virtual battle area. 7

In one day, she defeated three wielders of high-grade spiritual weapons and countless wielders of mid-grade spiritual weapons. No matter what spiritual weapons they possessed, none could withstand a tenfold charged attack delivered right to their face when they were completely unprepared.

The Storm Sword, initially weak and powerless, began to derive excitement from carnage. 6

This is what growing up is all about...

According to Lu Chan's guess, the Storm Sword should be able to withstand more enhancements now.

"The testing is almost over. Now... let's give you a real boost."

Lu Chan gently stroked the Storm Sword and led her to the [Spirit Skill Zone]. The Spirit Skill Zone was the most prosperous and bustling place in the entire Beilan City, where crafters who came and went were all buying spirit weapons.

Whether I can afford it or not is another matter; I'm mainly here to experience the atmosphere.

It's like when you're playing a game, even if you can't afford a top-tier piece of equipment, you'll still keep staring at it and craving it.

Lu Chan glanced at the stalls at the entrance and saw that even the worst low-grade spiritual skills started at several thousand spiritual coins. That's why the recipes for refining spiritual skills were so expensive.

Lu Chan walked into a large store.

At the entrance, a beautiful waitress in a uniform with a graceful figure greeted us with a smile: "Hello, young customer, what would you like to buy?"

Lu Chan shook his head and said calmly, "Sell one spirit skill."

As soon as she finished speaking, she took out a roll of sky-blue spirit skill talismans from her pocket. In order to save the cost of opening a refining room, she had refined two spirit skills in one hour.

The Storm Sword was given ten times the power, and this spirit skill was naturally meant to be sold.

Previously, she hadn't had time to sell this spiritual skill because she was in a hurry to test the tenfold power.

[Mid-grade Spiritual Skill (Semi-universal) Void Slash]

[Void Slash: Unleashes spiritual energy, allowing the weapon to deliver a long-range spiritual energy slash to any target within ten meters. Can be used twice consecutively.]

A sky-blue slash mark was engraved on the talisman.

After checking the information about the spiritual skill, the waitress's smile froze, and she said with a serious expression, "Please wait a moment, I'll go confirm the price of this spiritual skill talisman with the manager."

"..."

"..."

Watching the waitress leave the backstage area, Lu Chan waited quietly.

If ten times the power is trash, then Void Slash can be considered a mid-grade divine skill.

It can be used twice in a row, and the attack range is an extremely wide ten meters. It also requires no raising of the hand, making it a spiritual skill that any type of weapon would dream of.

However, Lu Chan showed absolutely no intention of letting the Storm Sword be used.

While Void Slash is powerful, it cannot effectively damage enemies that are too strong. In other words, this spirit skill cannot enable Storm Sword to fight against enemies of higher grades. Ultimately, it is at most a relatively good mid-grade spirit skill.

A few minutes later, the waitress brought back a middle-aged man with brown curly hair and silver-rimmed glasses, who was very polite.

"Hello, customer, I am the manager of this shop."

"May I ask where this scroll of spiritual techniques comes from? I've only seen it in illustrations; I've never actually seen it in person!" the middle-aged man asked, somewhat surprised.

Lu Chan explained, "It fell from the Spirit Forbidden Zone."

When an unowned spiritual artifact breaks, all the spiritual skills, spiritual forging, and damaged spiritual embryos on the user will fall away.

In other words, this reason is universal.

As expected, the middle-aged man's excited expression instantly turned to disappointment; he had probably been hoping for a formula with a fixed output.

"All right"

“A mid-grade spirit skill costs between 5 and 20 spirit coins. How about I buy this spirit skill talisman for 15 spirit coins? After all… there’s no information on this spirit skill for sale in the Northern Sacred State yet, so I can only make my own judgment,” the manager asked tentatively, adjusting his glasses.

"15 is fine, but I don't want the money, I only want the complete spiritual embryo."

Lu Chan nodded and pondered, "Three mid-grade wind-type spirit embryos and one mid-grade water-type spirit embryo, all complete, but the type doesn't matter. Then give me the difference of 50,000."

"Huh...?" The supervisor was slightly taken aback, and frowned in confusion.

Even though it's almost a complete spiritual embryo, why not specify the type of spiritual weapon?

What does this mean...?

A strange thought flashed through his mind in an instant: could this pretty young woman in front of him be trying to refine a spirit forging?

However, he quickly dismissed this ridiculous idea, because it was impossible for a weapon refiner in Beilan City to be able to modify spirit forging. If the price of spirit skill talismans was just expensive, then the modification of spirit forging was something that could only be encountered by chance and was not something that ordinary weapon refiners could measure with money.

Even looking across the entire Northern Sacred State, there are no known spiritual refiners.

"Perhaps it should only be used to fuse with spiritual artifacts and improve one's own cultivation level...? What a waste, a superfluous addition."

"For upgrades, using a fragmented embryo would be enough; why do you need a complete one?"

The man thought to himself with a hint of helplessness.

When many weapon refiners are dissatisfied with the grade and quality of their spiritual weapons, they think of using this luxurious method to improve them. After all, a complete spiritual embryo is purer and has more spiritual energy than a broken one.

A few minutes later, the transaction was completed.

Lu Chan left the Spirit Skills Zone with 50,000 spirit coins and 4 spirit embryos, and went back into the refining room.

In fact, just as the supervisor had initially thought, she planned to personally modify the Spirit Forging for the Storm Sword.

Zijing Academy: Chapter 11: Sword Sheath - Mist Concealment

Like spirit techniques, spirit forging can only be modified into four types of spirit forging, regardless of the grade of the spirit weapon.

And once the modification is successful, it can never be disassembled.

However, in terms of the rarity of spirit forging, there are very few spirit weapons with spirit forging in the entire North City.

Inside the refining room:

Lu Chan threw in three mid-grade wind-type spirit embryos and one mid-grade water-type spirit embryo, along with the colorful scrap iron and materials he had just bought.

Gazing at the soaring azure flames, Lu Chan murmured softly, "You really got off easy this time, since you're my natal spiritual weapon."

"I never imagined that one day I, Lu Chan, would actually use my unparalleled forging skills to personally refine a low-grade spiritual weapon. It's truly astonishing."

In my past life, my natal spiritual weapon was a Primordial Emperor-level weapon!

That is a supreme being who reigns supreme above heaven and earth, and has been able to crush trillions of spiritual artifacts since birth.

Let alone low-grade spiritual artifacts, even mid-grade or high-grade spiritual artifacts, Lu Chan had never touched them more than a few times in his entire life.

Thinking of this, a hint of pity appeared in her pale purple eyes.

Who told me that all I have now is the Storm Sword? I'm like a mute orphan stranded on a deserted island, unable to express my suffering.

While thinking, Lu Chan focused his attention and slowly poured the spiritual energy from the Storm Sword Embryo into the furnace.

This time, Lu Chan did not use the divine embryo of Wangchuan when refining the spirit forging.

Firstly, the spiritual embryo energy of the River of Oblivion has not fully recovered. Secondly, the Storm Sword could not possibly withstand the spiritual forging made using the spiritual embryo of the River of Oblivion.

Modifying spirit forging is much more difficult than inscribing spirit techniques.

In addition, there is no recipe for spirit forging; it depends entirely on the refiner's imagination and creativity, which is also the difficulty.

Lu Chan slowly closed her eyes, constructing the spirit forging posture she needed in her mind.

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

When she sensed that the wind-elemental and water-elemental spirit embryos had fused with the materials inside the furnace...

A "buzz" sound!

A plume of steam, like smoke, suddenly billowed out from the furnace, the mist shimmering with the glow of green candles, instantly filling the entire refining room.

Within the mist formed by water vapor, there was a glow of sunset, a blue sea, and lingering sounds.

Finally, after all the smoke and dust had dissipated.

What appeared in Lu Chan's hand was a jade-green scabbard that emitted mist and burned with blue water flames.

Its size is exactly the same as that of the Storm Sword.

[Mid-grade Spirit Forging - (Sword Sheath) Mist Concealment]

[Sword Nourishment: The sword blade absorbed by the Hidden Mist will have a nurturing effect, greatly enhancing the first strike after the spiritual weapon is unsheathed.]

After reviewing the information about the Spirit Forging, Lu Chan nodded with great satisfaction.

Although it has only one function, it is a spirit forging that is very compatible with the Storm Sword; if this spirit forging is modified and then charged ten times, it will probably produce unimaginable destructive power.
