Chapter 503: The Ming Hong Saber’s Reward (1)
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
“Who else?” Xiao Jianghe was covered in blood as he pointed the Huben Saber forward and shouted.
Although the second one to die under his Huben Saber was not a first-rank demonic beast, it was still a second-rank demonic beast. Moreover, Xiao Jianghe had killed it under the siege of more than a hundred demonic beasts.
This result shocked the demonic beasts.
Xiao Jianghe felt that he had reached the peak of his life. Even though he was injured, he was still full of fighting spirit. He felt that he could kill another one!
[The Huben Saber you forged effectively completed a kill. The Eight-Nine Arcane Art has improved by 10%.]
Zhou Shu sighed as he watched the message slide past.
Xiao Jianghe looked mighty, but in fact, it wasn’t worth it.
If he refined the Huben Saber into his intrinsic divine weapon and fused it into his meridians, his cultivation might increase with the phenomenon formed by the Huben Saber.
Now, however, the chance was gone.
Zhou Shu didn’t stop him. Xiao Jianghe was different from Yang Hong. He was a first-rank martial artist. This increase wouldn’t affect him.
It wasn’t a bad thing to familiarize himself with the Huben Saber before refining it.
Boom!
In front of Xiao Jianghe’s saber, several divine power beams smashed onto his body.
With a loud bang, his feet plowed the ground as he retreated.
As he retreated, he spat blood.
Being invincible was just Xiao Jianghe’s illusion. Killing a first-rank and second-rank demonic beast was already his limit.
It didn’t matter that he had the Huben Saber.
Zhou Shu moved and stood in front of Xiao Jianghe. When he passed by Xiao Jianghe, he casually tapped his glabella.
“Now, refine the Huben Saber into your intrinsic divine weapon. I’ll protect you,” Zhou Shu said casually.
Xiao Jianghe spat out another mouthful of blood and said dejectedly, “Yes!”
With Zhou Shu around, he wasn’t worried at all. He immediately sat on the ground and began to fuse the Huben Saber into his meridians according to the refinement method Zhou Shu had just taught him.
The biggest difference between connate divine weapons and acquired weapons was that they could become one with the martial artist and become the martial artist’s intrinsic divine weapon.
There were actually two ways to refine it. One was to combine the weapon with a human, and the other was to combine a human with a weapon.
What Zhou Shu used was the first method. This method allowed the star paths inside the weapon to fuse with the 12 principal meridians and 8 extraordinary vessels. Usually, the weapon would fuse into the meridians. In battle, the weapon would be in the martial artist’s hand with a thought.
The second method was also called refining, but in Zhou Shu’s opinion, it was going down the evil path.
Shi Changsheng used the second method.
He had merged his soul with the Longevity Sword, and the Longevity Sword had become his body.
In a sense, Shi Changsheng had also become the artifact spirit of the Longevity Sword.
The advantage of this method was that if the weapon wasn’t destroyed, the person wouldn’t be destroyed. It was almost equivalent to immortality.
Two methods, it was hard to determine which was better.
However, not everyone could use the second method.
Without a cultivation base at the peak of the Grotto-Heaven realm, one’s soul wasn’t stable enough, and there was no way to merge with a weapon.
Moreover, not just any connate divine weapon could allow one’s soul to reside in it. The connate divine weapon had to be compatible with the soul.
On the contrary, the first refinement method didn’t have so many restrictions.
Xiao Jianghe began to refine the Huben Saber into his intrinsic divine weapon. Actually, he still didn’t know what it meant to refine a connate divine weapon into an intrinsic divine weapon.
But he had long entrusted his life to Zhou Shu, and we would do whatever Zhou Shu asked him to without the slightest hesitation.
Moreover, he had just personally tested the power of the Huben Saber.
This Huben Saber was much stronger than the heaven-grade weapons he had used before.
Clang!
The Ming Hong Saber appeared in Zhou Shu’s hand. This connate divine weapon, which had been formed from the thousands of remnant weapons on the Weapon Burial Mountain, was now his intrinsic divine weapon. It was ranked first on the Connate Armament Manual.
If Zhou Shu hadn’t deliberately suppressed its sharpness, just the saber qi from the unsheathed saber would be able to reduce all demonic beasts below the third rank to dust.
“Your opponent is me now.” Zhou Shu smiled faintly.
The Ming Hong Saber blocked the attack of a first-rank demonic beast casually.
The first-rank demonic beast took half a step back and snorted. “No matter where you come from, if you obediently surrender, I’ll let you die with your corpses intact. Otherwise…”
“Otherwise what?” Zhou Shu said. “If you have the ability, come.”
The demonic beasts were furious and roared as they charged at Zhou Shu.
Zhou Shu’s figure swayed as he used the Riding on Cloud and Wind Technique to move between the demonic beasts. From time to time, he would brandish the Ming Hong Saber.
After a few seconds, the demonic beasts were relieved. They had thought that this human was very strong.
In the end, he was only a little agile, and his strength was inferior to that of the human just now.
After so long, he would only be able to take a beating. The counterattack he launched couldn’t even hurt their fur!
After fighting for a few more breaths, the patience of the first-rank demonic beasts was almost exhausted.
They roared, and their bodies erupted with intense light. They activated their spiritual essence and used their respective divine powers.
Divine beams shot at Zhou Shu.
Zhou Shu was struck by the divine beams and sent flying as if he was powerless to resist.
As he flew out, he slashed left and right with the Ming Hong Saber in his hand. Two demonic beasts whose cultivation wasn’t even at the third rank of the Martial Dao had two bloody lines on their necks almost at the same time.
