Chapter 1046
Relics: The Sword Has No Name
"Of course, by 'use' I mean only barely enough, or even just once..."
"After all, even those at the Nascent Soul stage are still some distance from becoming true immortals!"
After speaking, Chu Xuan paused for a moment.
Then he looked at Li Xiao and the others and said, "Actually, it's not that it's completely unusable."
After saying that, Chu Xuan took out the palm-sized Eastern Emperor Bell from the machine in front of him.
This time it wasn't a projection like before, it was real.
Then he fiddled with a machine that no one could understand.
Chu Xuan then placed the small and exquisite Eastern Emperor Bell on a platform.
Then, the switch was flipped, and several beams of energy, each as thick as a bowl, shot from all directions toward the Eastern Emperor Bell placed in the center.
And so, with the infusion of energy, the Eastern Emperor Bell began to float upwards.
As the manga clearly shows, the area around the Eastern Emperor Bell begins to distort as these energy beams are poured in.
When the floating Eastern Emperor Bell reached a certain position, Chu Xuan struck something in the air with his palm again.
Then the originally bright beam of light instantly became dazzling.
Some of the people present even had the illusion that they were seeing the sun.
However, this is not the end.
Chu Xuan continued to activate various switches and buttons.
It was at this moment that Chu Xuan's originally jet-black hair began to turn white rapidly.
It was obvious that Chu Xuan had used the λ-drive ability again at some point.
And it was at this time.
Standing to the side, Li Xiao and the others gradually felt a sense of unease.
It was as if some great terror had appeared before them.
Unfortunately, the powerful beam of light only lasted for a few seconds before suddenly stopping.
Immediately afterwards, a series of piercing buzzing sounds rang out from the various instruments in the square.
This time, without Chu Xuan saying a word, Li Xiao turned and ran.
As the alarm sounded, the terror became even clearer.
This ultimately led to the saying: "If you don't run, you die!"
With the help of the Eye of the Future, Zero Point had already carried Cheng Xiao more than ten meters away.
On the other side, Zhao Yingkong and Zhu Wen started slowly, but the girl was fast and even had time to care about others.
"One of the binding techniques: Rope binding!"
Chu Xuan, whose hair was already half white, was bound by a white rope made of spiritual pressure and pulled sharply, forcibly following the group.
Fortunately, because they hadn't closed the door when they entered Chu Xuan's room, the group ran very smoothly.
Chu Xuan quickly closed the door.
A noticeable shockwave caused the door frame behind them to shake.
Li Xiao looked up at the main god above his head and breathed a sigh of relief once he was sure the sense of danger had disappeared.
He turned around and looked at Chu Xuan with a helpless expression before saying:
"Let's forget about the Eastern Emperor Bell for now. We'll find a way once Xiao Honglu recovers."
"Anyway, we've made quite a bit of a haul this time. Why don't you take a look at those two bottles, one big and one small, first?"
Cheng Xiao, Zhu Wen, and even Ling Dian, who were standing next to him, all nodded vigorously.
They were afraid that Chu Xuan might accidentally kill them.
After Chu Xuan finished treating the main god, he closed the room door again.
Cheng Xiao let out a breath.
Then, with wide, curious eyes, he looked at Zhao Yingkong:
"Um, Sakura-chan. Actually, there's something I've wanted to ask you for days. I remember you only exchanged for two Kido items, right?"
One is a six-zhang-high light prison, and the other is someone looking for someone. How come you're facing the First God and just now…”
Li Xiao looked up at the puzzled Cheng Xiao and Zhu Wen, and couldn't help but look up at the sky.
They only saw Zhao Yingkong tilt her head and say calmly, "Wasn't it Zhang Jie who said it?"
"Once you reach a certain level, you won't need to exchange for it from the main god anymore."
"So I learned it by watching anime, and it's actually quite simple. I just waved my hand and it came out."
Upon hearing this, Zhao Yingkong waved her hand.
Another rope appeared.
At midnight, the three of them, like Li Xiao, started looking up at the sky, somewhat reluctant to speak.
(The difference between people can sometimes be greater than the difference between a person and a dog...)
Time flies.
Another day has passed, and it is also the eighth day in the Main God Space.
Chen Zilong's room.
Why did it stop?
Chen Zilong looked at Zhu Wen, who was concerned about him, and put the two pills back into the porcelain bottle and stored them in his spatial ring.
Then, with a solemn expression, he answered:
"In that instant, I felt that if I were to condense my Golden Core now, even with the aid of the Breaking Dust Pill, I would most likely fail."
"If possible, I plan to break through in horror movies."
Zhu Wen frowned: "But Chu Xuan said that if you try to condense your golden core in a horror movie, you're likely to encounter a heavenly tribulation."
Chen Zilong laughed and said, "The reason why you and I couldn't control the surge of energy in our bodies and the side effects of physical strengthening is because there was no Heavenly Tribulation.
It even took a whole day to unlock its genetic potential and adapt.
"So sometimes heavenly tribulations are not necessarily without benefits."
"Moreover, with so many defensive magic treasures on us now, a Golden Core Heavenly Tribulation is nothing to us."
"Not to mention the Nine Dragons Divine Fire Cover on your body."
After Chen Zilong finished speaking, Zhu Wen nodded seriously.
The same scene was happening in everyone's room.
It can be said that the existence of the Foundation Establishment Pill has elevated the entire Zhongzhou team to a new level.
Sometimes, when you're carrying water in a bucket, how much you can lift depends not on the longest plank, but on the shortest one.
Now, even the lowest-ranked members of the Central Continent Team have been significantly promoted.
Putting aside everything else, Saito's internal energy, which was only at the C-level, was directly compressed and purified into true essence energy upon his successful foundation building.
After undergoing a complete transformation and purification of his body, Cheng Xiao gained the ability to freely switch between an infant's body and a mature body.
Although it is still impossible to maintain a normal human appearance indefinitely, it should be fine for the short term.
Of course, this result also kept Cheng Xiao from leaving his room for several days.
The changes in Zhu Wen and Ling Dian after reaching the Foundation Establishment stage were mainly reflected in their physical fitness.
After all, both of them have extremely special bloodlines, and the Foundation Establishment Pill can only be used as a kind of rare and precious material to consume, without actually establishing a foundation.
One of them has the bloodline of a deer spirit, and the other is enhanced by a virus. They don't look like they are capable of reaching the Foundation Establishment stage at all.
But no matter what, the gains will only be more than expected.
at the same time.
Zhao Ying's empty room...
"The Soul Fusion Pill is worth two B-level side quests in the Main God Space. It can make the soul complete and unified, and can greatly enhance the soul power and the five senses."
"This is also the only elixir among the harvest that is related to the soul and spirit."
"Although the effect of achieving a state of perfect harmony is not explicitly stated, I think it should be helpful to you."
Zhao Yingkong took a deep breath, looked directly at the person opposite her, and asked seriously, "And you?"
"With Chu Xuan's method of compressing true essence, even if you only completed the Foundation Establishment yesterday, you still have the opportunity to condense a Golden Core with the help of the Condensing Golden Core and the Breaking Dust Pill."
Li Xiao shook his head: "Chen Zilong and I have already discussed it. The effect of the Golden Core Tribulation is neither too big nor too small." "If possible, we plan to condense the Golden Core in a horror movie."
"While the next horror movie is uncertain, we could go to the world of the mummy or Uncle Zombie after we return."
After thinking for a while, Zhao Yingkong nodded and took the cyan pill from Li Xiao's hand.
Looking at the hesitation on the girl's face.
Li Xiao spoke again: "Believe in yourself!"
Li Xiao didn't really know what to say or how to comfort the girl in front of him.
With Zheng Zha and Xiao Honglu being forcibly taken offline, Zhang Jie revived, and then there was the harvest from the ruins this time.
The combat capabilities within the Central Continent Team have undergone a dramatic transformation.
Li Xiao, who was stuck in the third stage of the genetic lock, was not the only one who realized his weakness.
There's also this girl who usually doesn't express much emotion.
Zhao Yingkong nodded vigorously at Li Xiao without saying much. After taking the Soul Fusion Pill, she fell into a deep sleep with a steady breath.
Actually, it was just a short time ago.
When Zhao Yingkong learned that Chu Xuan had already touched the fourth-order gene lock, she asked him about it.
How can we unleash the power that another version of ourselves possesses?
They are all her, so why are they so clearly separated?
Even now, Zhao Yingkong has not used the Bankai of her second Zanpakuto.
Not to mention materializing masks and using the God's Will Mask.
It can be said that since Zhao Yingkong created the Instant Open skill in Uncle Zombie, it has been a significant development.
Their strength has already begun to stagnate.
Otherwise, how could she have calmed down and studied the Kido within the Shinigami system?
It should be noted that in Zhao Yingkong's previous understanding, there was only speed and strength, and only a one-hit kill.
Rather than the various kinds of skills like Demon Path and Binding Path, they are more like auxiliary skills.
What Cheng Xiao and the others envied was just a girl who had nowhere else to turn.
Because the obstacle preventing her from becoming stronger was not someone else, but herself.
As her strength gradually approaches that of another version of herself.
Instead of becoming stronger, they are becoming more and more constrained.
Because afterwards, their paths will either diverge completely, and they will become two different people...
Either merge into one...
Chu Xuan's suggestion was undoubtedly the second one.
Separation is only a last resort.
Only by becoming one can Zhao Yingkong take a single step forward and surpass everyone, even Zheng Zha, the captain who is slowly evolving in his slumber.
In the world of mummies, in Shanghai, Chu Xuan's original words were:
"When the two of you merge into one, your genetic lock will not only be able to take a step forward to become a mid-level fourth-tier, but you will also be able to advance further in the Death God system, directly manifesting the Hollow White Mask and Hollow Blade, two powerful attack skills that require negative energy to exist, with the help of the power of your inner demons."
"Actually, when I learned that the other you had unlocked the fourth-order gene lock, I felt it made perfect sense."
“I even think that was a method you used to fight your inner demons back then.”
"Two consciousnesses that share the same origin will separate and then merge again once they both have the ability to unlock the fourth-order gene lock."
"This way, you can overcome your inner demons, and even, like you, use them to your advantage to go further."
"As for the method, it's actually very simple. There are many items in the Main God Space that target the soul."
"The simplest way is the Transformation Body that Li Xiao mentioned back then."
“Condense another version of yourself, and then defeat it head-on.”
"That would make perfect sense."
Zhao Yingkong then asked in return:
"But I am not the primary personality."
Chu Xuan gave a cold smile.
"It seems you already know a lot, or perhaps Li Xiao has given himself away."
"Fine, I'll tell you then. From the moment you choose to split your soul, which is what you call creating a secondary personality."
"At the level of the soul, there is no distinction between primary and secondary, only between strong and weak."
"The ideal situation is not when you are strong and she is weak, or when you are weak and she is strong."
"To reach the strongest I've described, only when the two of you are infinitely close in power can you succeed..."
in the room.
Li Xiao watched as the girl beside him, who appeared to be asleep, sat cross-legged and began to cultivate.
Having just successfully established his foundation, he also needs to adapt to his current body.
Although the energy in the body still falls under the category of true essence, both its quantity and quality have reached a new level.
It's like the difference between 10 and 99, both being two digits, but it's a full ninety times different from one and nine.
Moreover, at this moment, a gray longsword was hovering uncertainly in front of Li Xiao.
The sword would split into seven beams of light and shadow, then return to one, repeating this cycle endlessly, just like a mischievous child.
Each ray of light that emanated from it possessed a dazzling and magnificent appearance, looking elegant and luxurious, as if it were not something of this mortal world.
However, when the seven beams of light merged, they turned into a dull, unremarkable longsword, even appearing rather mediocre.
Li Xiao stared intently at the person in front of him.
"Divine objects conceal themselves; this flying sword, being an acquired magical treasure, is comparable to those innate objects."
"Moreover, the fact that it could be created in this way coincides with my original idea."
After Li Xiao finished speaking, he made a backhand move.
The dull gray flying sword landed in Li Xiao's palm.
Look down.
The sword in his hand was three feet and five inches long, with a dark body and a white spine. The blade was marked with irregular black and white marks on both sides.
Overall, this gray-black longsword is just an ordinary, unremarkable item.
Of course, if Li Xiao hadn't seen the seven rays of light that separated after recognizing the sword as its master and refused to believe it, the sword's intrinsic value would have already surpassed that of two A-level side quests.
"But why doesn't it have a name?"
[Magic/Cultivation Item: The Sword Has No Name.]
It is formed by combining seven swords: the Rainbow Sword, the Ice Soul Sword, the Purple Cloud Sword, the Rain Flower Sword, the Thunder Sword, the Azure Light Sword, and the Whirlwind Sword.
Ultimately, the sword became nameless; this divine object concealed itself, devoid of color and light.
[Worth two A-level side quests, 35000 reward points]
That's right.
This is the description of the gray longsword in the Main God Space.
Just like its appearance, the description was unremarkable and lacked any outstanding features. No, even in the description by the main god, it wasn't a sword, but a special magical artifact called "the sword has no name."
However, Li Xiao then continued searching for the seven swords whose names appeared on the screen and were quite familiar.
Only then did they discover that each sword was worth 5000 reward points for a B-level side quest, without exception.
The biggest difference lies in the descriptions of the seven swords, each with its own unique skills, attributes, and characteristics.
But it was only after doing this calculation that Li Xiao realized something was wrong.
Since the value of six swords is already equivalent to two A-level side quests, and seven swords, plus the effect of one plus one being greater than two, should be within the scope of an S-level side quest.
Although it can't be calculated this way, it doesn't stop Li Xiao from thinking about something.
That means the saint or cultivator who created this sword aimed to rival a primordial spiritual treasure.
Although it didn't succeed in the end, that doesn't mean the sword wasn't powerful.
Moreover, even if it really doesn't work, this nameless sword can still be split into seven flying swords with B-grade side quest value.
This perfectly aligned with my initial thoughts when I first started exchanging for it. (End of Chapter)
