Accompanied by the first autumn rain, Mu Ziyun and Fang Tianmu entered Zen in Qi Ling Shop. Guests entering the pavilion are often allowed to visit any place in the pavilion, including countless ancient and modern classics. However, neither of them is interested in reading. For the past three months, they have been sitting in Zen in the Artifact Shop of Yuleibing Pavilion. Refiners and craftsmen call it nourishing the heart, removing dryness and casting the spirit.
The so-called spiritual shop is magnificent, comparable to the royal palace in the world. The reason why it is called a "shop" but not a "palace" is because the creatures who enter Zen here are always trying a certain kind of magic. trade. When he first met Ge Yuan, Mu Ziyun had heard Ge Yuan say that in general, treasures cannot be divided into three, six or nine grades. The level at which they can be used does not depend on their own strength, but on the quality of their users. Regardless of the level of ability, all treasures, as long as they are living things, even if they are ordinary things, can reach the highest level in one step, because the living tools are not limited by the user, and they can definitely display their true abilities. There are also extraordinary weapons that can evolve and perfect themselves at any time. For such treasures, all creatures in the world are vying for them.
But it is even more difficult to create a soul for a weapon in the world. If you want a weapon to have a soul and spirituality, you may have to go through harsh conditions for hundreds, thousands or even ten thousand years. People like Mu Ziyun who have accompanying soul weapons (fire beads) are rare. It’s all shallow. But there is another way to make living weapons and soul weapons, which is to infuse spirits. Charcoal plus fire can transfer the soul of a creature into an instrument, such as the nine-ring machete that Mu Ziyun saw before. However, ordinary souls entering the instrument cannot directly become the spirit of the instrument. Without the support of the body, the weak soul will not If consciousness is left behind, and enough souls are piled together, it is possible to create an instrument spirit or a soul spirit, but it is very likely that it will only produce an evil nature like a nine-ring machete.
The only ones who can be introduced into an instrument by the fire of charcoal and easily become an instrument spirit or soul are those who have a strong consciousness and are extremely pure souls during their lifetime. When the craftsmen of the Meteor Thunder Arms Pavilion go out in search of weapon refining materials, they often bring back the powerful souls they encounter and store them in the weapon spirit shop. This has never happened throughout the ages. Today's weapon spirit store stores There are about 9,000 souls. All guests who come can enter Zen at any time. The process of entering Zen is the process of contacting and talking with the spirit spirits. Guests need to let their state of mind match and resonate with a certain spirit spirit. , this process can also nourish the mind, but it can also lead to obsession and be dragged into trouble by the soul, unable to escape. Even if it is saved, the mind will be traumatized and it is difficult to recover.
In addition to those who have great luck, many successful guests have paid a lot of money. For example, an orc guest fifty years ago actually cut off a one-armed beast soul in order to let it enter his treasure phantom. The left arm was recognized by the one-armed beast soul. What's more, he actually mutilated his mind and went through great sufferings in order to be recognized by the matching weapon spirit. Of course, there were also people who were recognized by the weapon spirits by virtue of their own strength. A swarming situation.
Mu Ziyun got Zhu Lizhi's suggestion to find a spirit for his weapon in the weapon spirit shop. Although Zhu Lizhi vaguely felt that there was a hidden spirit in the three-sided sky stone hammer, he was worried that the old spirit would be lost in the process of forging the weapon. The spirit cannot survive. A magical weapon that needs to be recorded in history would be unjustifiable without a soul. This is both a suggestion and a requirement.
Fang Tianmu's purpose of entering Zen was not to find the soul, but to try to awaken the things in the "Great Destruction" of the black knife. He always felt that the black knife had a soul, and there seemed to be those imaginary things left deep in his memory. film.
Mu Ziyun was immersed in the sky, first weakening his five senses, and then forgetting them. With the help of the method given to him by the humans in the Meteor Thunder Pavilion to sense the soul, Mu Ziyun gradually began to capture the traces of the soul. After five days, he still had no results, and his heart was too impetuous to be calm, and he gave up five or six times.
On the other hand, Fang Tianmu sat cross-legged, holding the black knife "Great Destruction" across his legs. He let himself go and tried to enter the black knife without relying on Mu Ziyun's power. His five senses were quickly weakened, and his black knife seemed like a quiet lake. It seemed like an evil beast was about to fly out at any time, but it always met with waves. Half a day later, Fang Tianmu heard a voice, followed by five, one hundred, one thousand...
Although he closed his eyes, the stars were spread out in front of him, and thousands of souls appeared along with them, appearing in groups and flying around Fang Tianmu. The weapon refiner guarding the weapon spirit shop said with emotion: "The stars are holding the moon, this place has finally welcomed a powerful creature. Human beings, take your pick, they are all willing to be your weapon spirits!"
But Fang Tianmu didn't come here to refine weapons at all. He never looked squarely at those ancient and powerful souls. He always kept a cold heart and inspected everything in the black knife.
Five days later, Mu Ziyun's voice rang in his ears. Mu Ziyun finally couldn't bear it anymore and said, "Hello? What does that gatekeeper mean? Have you seen those souls?"
Fang Tianmu did not open his eyes, but nodded.
"Why? How did you do it? Is there any way?"
Fang Tianmu still didn't open his eyes and just shook his head.
"Damn it!" Mu Ziyun became furious, glaring at the empty hall like a tiger and a dragon, and shouted loudly: "Get out of here!"
The extremely violent spirit instantly filled the entire shop. Unexpectedly, after a few breaths of time, spirits actually appeared. They were all timid and trembling, crawling on the ground. The weapon refiner guarding the spiritual weapon shop was shocked: "This...there has never been a precedent. This guy actually made a soul that has existed for ten thousand years fear this much?"
Soon, more and more souls appeared. Different from Tianmu's attitude, they were all afraid of Mu Ziyun's cruelty, but they did not surrender willingly. In fact, the souls of Mu Ziyun and Fang Tianmu are both very powerful, because they have been trained countless times in life and death, especially Mu Ziyun, but since Hu Zi's death, Mu Ziyun's heart has never been calmer, so he cannot communicate with the souls. Complete communication.
Mu Ziyun stood up, looked coldly, and whispered: "They are all arranged for me. I want to see them one by one."
In this way, Mu Ziyun first captured the first one, which was a deer soul. It had existed for 200,000 years, but Mu Ziyun did not like it. The next one was a spirit soul. The soul itself had great strength, but it happened to be a good water soul. The guy couldn't be used by Mu Ziyun, so the next one. . .
In fifteen days, Mu Ziyun looked at all the more than 9,000 souls, but could not choose one. In fact, the further back he went, the harder it became to choose. . Mu Ziyun's indecisive subconscious flaw showed up again. It was not that he had not taken a fancy to a good soul, but he always felt that the next one would be better, and the previous one seemed good. In the end, no one was left. When others chose, they could It was good to have dozens of souls come out, but he was better off. More than 9,000 souls all showed up, so it was no wonder that he could be dazzled.
Mu Ziyun wanted to start over again, but this time, the souls never appeared again, no matter how he threatened. .
The guardian came over and said helplessly: "You guy, if you are not decisive when I ask you to choose, they will all fall asleep on their own. No matter how much you scare them, they will not be able to sense it. Alas, you, a customer, will probably be in this magical shop for half a year. It can no longer be used within a certain period of time.”
Mu Ziyun was very annoyed. He snorted coldly and walked out of the door.
Fang Tianmu found out within twenty days that the "big annihilation" of the black sword was fruitless, so he had to give up. But when he stood up to leave, he suddenly found something hidden under the sword. His deep violent aura immediately emitted from the blade, directly Force the thing out.
It was a strange soul that did not belong to any race, because it was a shadow. Even the guardian was suspicious and said: "It's strange, why have I never seen this thing before? Eh? No, no, I have heard of it. It existed a long time ago, but it has never been discovered. I It’s really the first time I’ve seen this thing.”
Fang Tianmu was not interested. He picked up the black knife and walked out, but the shadow soul rushed towards him and retracted its soul shape into the black knife. Fang Tianmu had no worries in his heart, because he believed that nothing could break through the black knife's domain. Unfortunately, he was wrong. The black knife "Great Destruction" accepted the guy quietly without any reaction.
Both Fang Tianmu and the guardian lost their composure. The guardian was dumbfounded and said: "This...is fused? Doesn't it need to be refined with charcoal and fire? This becomes the weapon spirit of your sword?"
Fang Tianmu looked at the black knife with a natural look on his face, and quietly went to explore the inside of the black knife, trying to force the thing out. Unfortunately, he was not even qualified to enter the black knife field, and he was not as good as the shadow. He didn't want to let other things contaminate his black knife, so he said coldly to the guardian: "Get it out."
"I...I can't do it..." the guardian said helplessly: "I don't even dare to touch this knife of yours. I know what power it is, and the soul cannot enter through the method of refining a weapon. Yes, I simply..."
"Get it out!" Fang Tianmu's eyes showed murderous intent.
"Wait a moment, I'll go invite someone." The guardian didn't dare to neglect and ran out of the store quickly. Zhu Lizhi of the human race was not there, so he had to go and invite important figures from other races.
Not long after, the top casters of the Orcs and Demons arrived at the weapon shop. They asked Fang Tianmu to hold the black sword "Great Destruction" and probed for a long time. The Orcs forger said in human language: " I have seen that shadow before, and I heard my old grandfather mention it. That thing seems to come from the human race, and it should be the soul of the human race. As for why it is a shadow, there is no record in the Thunderstorm Pavilion."
The demon forger answered: "Guest, this is not a bad thing. Your sword is now a sword with a spirit. Although we don't know its ability,... I think it will eventually be used." The day it works.”
Fang Tianmu still wanted them to force the souls out. After struggling for a long time, Yuleibing Pavilion was really patient with its guests. Finally, he invited Zhu Lizhi, who was exhausted and exhausted, to say a few good words before sending Fang Tianmu over. Tianmu persuaded him to go back for the time being, which made Mu Ziyun envious. He had picked out no soul willing to follow him for fifteen days. It was a good thing that this boy had picked up an old treasure in vain. . .
