Chapter 242: Refining the Sword with Weapons’ Soul

Lyu Liang and his friends returned between 11:00 p.m and 1:00 am. However, after listening to White’s explanation, it was not until dawn that Lyu Liang finally got a grip on himself, and gave a long sigh. He shook his head vigorously, looked at his hands, and then clenched his fists tightly.

“Senior White, please forgive me for being a little excited before,” Lyu Liang secretly transmitted a voice message to White, and then changed his tone when he sensed the senior waking up from his doze, “Originally, my plan was to leave with my friends for the Nether Big World after the war, but based on the current situation, I will do a closed door meditation for a period of time. As you said, both the Evil Blood Palace and the Devil Realm are in this low-level world, and it is only here that I can be more competitive. Therefore, before exploring that middle-level World, I want to improve myself as much as possible, and explore all the resources I have, for my own use.”

“Well, your Taoist Heart has really become stronger now. Actually, that’s what I mean, and I was thinking about how to explain it to you. Now that you seem to have figured it out and calmed down, I’ll introduce you to a new brother,” White said, nodding its head, with a look of approval in its eyes.

As White spoke, the puppy-like, blackish green Divine Beast of Chaos, which could turn into an Eternal Divine Weapon, appeared beside it. As soon as the battle was over, the little beast had gone along with White, but at that time, Lyu Liang’s chaotic state of mind, did not notice it at all.

When he heard this, Lyu Liang made a respectful bow immediately and apologized, “Senior sword spirit beast, please forgive Lyu Liang for offending you before. ” Lyu Liang was a little worried, for the spirit beast and Jin Kai had an unbreakable alliance, and it used to be cruel to offenders before. Now Lyu Liang did not know what it thought of him.

“You did a good job. Evil Moon had his own reason for his persistence, which had nothing to do with you.” The words of the sword spirit beast reassured Lyu Liang thoroughly, but the latter still felt a little embarrassed. “However,” the sword spirit beast switched the topic of the conversation, “Is the Weapon Incantation with you? You didn’t just refine the Kunwu Sword, according to the literal meaning of the incantation, did you? You would have the strength to fight against me at that time, if you had used the soul-refining arcana.”

“Well… shouldn’t I refine my life-bonded divine weapon according to the recorded method?” Lyu Liang was a little shocked, but also a little worried. Though both he and the Kunwu Sword had improved greatly after the sword refining, he always felt that he was missing out on something.

The sword spirit beast stared at Lyu Liang intensely, as if to assure itself that his innocent look was not put on, and then could not help complaining to White, “Is this the guy you selected, that we brothers are willing to follow? He’s so stupid that even if we sell him, he will count the money for us!”

“My brother, our second sister thinks so too! However, though this guy is pitifully stupid in some respects, he has merits in other respects!”

“My brother, as the first to follow him, I know that he is a bit dumb, but he does have an eternal Taoist Heart, and enough opportunities. Did you not feel it in the previous battle?”

“Ha-ha, rest assured and trust your fourth brother, for I’ve always been very accurate in judging people. If we follow this silly boy, we will not suffer, and there may be a good chance in the future!”

“My brother, you should listen to him. This boy has 2 space-related secret realms, a top-level immortal abode, and even made friends with young members of those Remote Antiquity family. Ha-ha, he will not let you down in the future.”

“My, my brother, let’s f-follow him, and there must be a lo-lo-lot of f-fights…”

All the divine beasts appeared and tried to persuade the sword spirit beast. Their persuasion naturally turned into singing praises about Lyu Liang, whose face turned red and purple, due to shyness, for he would rather dig a hole in the ground and hide in hell…”

After thinking for a while, the sword spirit beast nodded and whispered, “That’s it. Your Taoist Heart and unyielding character will enable you to compete with Evil Moon. Besides, though in a negative way, my brothers praised you so much that I think it’s right to follow you. Well, I’ll be on your side from now on.” With these words, a drop of divine blood flew out of the beast’s head.

Lyu Liang was overjoyed, but he maintained a respectful attitude, and again bowed to the sword spirit beast, before making a covenant with it.

“Call me ‘Little Sword’ as before. I’m used to it. By the way, your cultivation is too far from Evil Moon to turn me into a human-like divine weapon. Even if I can change my shape, I won’t be better than your Kunwu Sword, before you reach the level of God Ancestor.” Little Sword’s words did not make Lyu Liang depressed at all. Anyway, the Divine Beast of Chaos had agreed to join him, which was an unexpected pleasure.

Lyu Liang was not depressed, and this satisfied Little Sword. The beast nodded and continued, “You really have a nice Taoist Heart. Now that I have chosen to follow you, I’ll give you some benefits. But will you give me the Weapon Incantation? I need it for what I’m going to do.”

Without hesitation, Lyu Liang summoned the ancient Weapon Incantation, and it flew quickly to Little Sword.

Little Sword’s eyes twinkled as he said softly, “At that time, it was impossible for my brothers to guide you. Anyway, that guy wouldn’t cooperate with you even if you were told everything, because you are not qualified enough. On the contrary, the more you know, the more helpless you would be in that case. But now that I’m here… Xuanyuan, how have you been since I saw you last? Is this fool’s performance enough to amuse you?”

With Little Sword’s falling voice, the Weapon Incantation burst forth with a dazzling golden light, and then a figure emerged from it— a delicate and pretty teenage boy, the incarnation of Aurum Blade, that Lyu Liang had once seen. Staring at Zhang San with a smile, the boy clapped his hands and laughed, “Wow, I didn’t expect to meet you here in this low-level world. What a wonderful coincidence!”

“Senior…” Lyu Liang scratched his head in embarassment. Even if he was silly, both the pretty boy in front of him and the weapons’ soul who had tested him before, made it clear that Weapon Incantation could not just be any normal Cultivation Method.

As expected, the pretty boy continued to laugh and said, “What a silly, but cute boy. Nevertheless, he did regard magic treasures as dung and even dared to refine one of the Pure-yang-level, and I almost wanted to show up and guide him. Now that you’re here, I can finally be assured and teach him some real skills.” With another golden flash, a long golden sword appeared, sending out a breathtaking atmosphere, on which shone some complex inscription. Black had already arranged for the Shadow-devil Domain to prevent them from becoming the target of the whole Devil Realm.

Feeling the overwhelming pressure, Lyu Liang swallowed with some difficulty. He wanted to ask something, but he didn’t know how to start.

At the critical moment, Little Sword spoke to Lyu Liang, “Stupid boy, it’s Xuanyuan Sword, a real divine weapon of Chaos and the leading soul of Weapon Incantation. You’ll get a similar divine weapon of Chaos, as long as you can refine your life-bonded divine weapon according to the correct soul-refining arcana. And now I’m going to tell you the right way to use the Weapon Incantation…”

Next, it took Lyu Liang several hours to fully understand the Weapon Incantation, which should only belong to the top-ranking powerful figure.

Although the Cultivation Method recorded in the Weapon Incantation could make the divine weapon more powerful, it was far less valuable than the Incantation itself.

To fully exploit the Weapon Incantation, he had to cooperate with the spirit of Xuanyuan Sword to refine the sword with the soul of all those magic treasures, as the major processed materials.

Last time, Lyu Liang just refined his weapon with all the magic treasures, without even thinking about extracting their souls… Generally speaking, the use of 100 magic treasures in the process of refining, was not as effective as that of a single weapon’s soul.

However, Lyu Liang had destroyed thousands of magic treasures in the previous refining process. Though there were still nearly ten thousand magic weapons of various qualities in his Interspatial Bracelet, he still regretted having destroyed them, and felt sad. Fortunately, after he felt that something was wrong, he became cautious and did not use up the few remaining magic treasures of Pure-yang level.

In fact, Lyu Liang need not have worried, even if none of those magic treasures remained, for there were plenty of weapons’ soul in the Weapon Incantation, originally. As long as Lyu Liang’s strength was recognized by one of them, he could use that soul to directly refine his life-bonded divine weapon!

Obviously, seemingly cold Little Sword was actually warm-hearted. Although its intonation was not emotional, it had been patiently explaining to Lyu Liang, and telling him everything it knew.

Lyu Liang’s heart was surging and his blood was boiling. He hoped that he could start the closed door meditation immediately, and start refining the Kunwu Sword again.

“What I can do for you is to enhance the strength of Kunwu Sword as a sword spirit, that you can turn into a real sword. Just as each array unit has its own array spirit, array soul and array immortal, some high-level magic treasures also have their own spirit, soul and immortal. For example, both Xuanyuan and I are immortals of magic treasures, and as the leading soul of the Weapon Incantation, Xuanyuan can help you awaken the other souls for your own use. As for me, I will take charge of Kunwu Sword, help to enhance its strength, and guide its own soul for you, at the same time. When the sword immortal in it is finally formed, you may really get a divine sword of Chaos level.” After Little Sword had said this, Lyu Liang bowed directly to it and the Xuanyuan sword.

The information he got this time, was so important and helpful!

“Boy, though I promised to help you, it’s much more time-consuming and laborious to refine your sword with the weapons’ soul. You may not get its approval through defeating the weapon’s soul, for it must truly be willing to be convinced.” Xuanyuan Sword whispered and disappeared again in the Weapon Incantation.

……

After daybreak, Lyu Liang appeared in front of his fellows, refreshed and delighted, which made everyone feel relieved. Obviously, Lyu Liang was no longer depressed.

“Sorry, Master… but I really can’t understand what happened. You know all about me, or we’ll go back to Kunshui in Earth-Sea Territory immediately. My parents are living in Kun Shui Sect, and they can vouch for me…” Overnight, Nie Qingyun had regained consciousness. Though his Divine Soul was still somewhat weak, his physical condition had obviously improved a lot.

Lyu Liang waved his hand to interrupt Nie Qingyun, and began to comfort him, “Qingyun, we all trust you, or we would not have fought to death, against that horrible guardian. I believe there must be a misunderstanding. Even if there is no chance to explain it now, your innocence will be proven in the future! There is no need to mention the past. Since you regard me as your Master, I will ensure your safety in any similar situation in the future!”

Nie Qingyun’s mouth opened wide, and it seemed as if he was about to burst into tears. Suddenly, he jumped out of bed, and began to kowtow devotedly.

Lyu Liang quickly lifted Nie Qingyun up, and urged him to take a good rest. After a brief discussion with his fellows, Lyu Liang decided to visit the Tianluo Clan, for what Tianluo Xian had mentioned was quite attractive, after all.

Of course, they would not leave immediately, for most of them had been injured, and it would take at least ten days before they completely recovered, and for the side effects of Lyu Liang’s Divine Mark to disappear. Only by ensuring that everyone was in the best condition, would they then have the courage to visit the Tianluo Clan, and find out whether it was an enemy or a friend.
