Chapter 202 [Black Slash of Great Sword]

Chapter 202 [Great Sword·Black Slash]

Starlight City, Huangji Temple.

The flowing starlight fell on the dark red surface of the [Old Furnace], reflecting a distorted glimmer.

Archbishop Luca looked at Ryan and said softly:

"Lord God, later, I will use the secret method to transform my body of the 'Lord of Fire' into a brand that will last for a short time."

"You only need to touch me with one hand to connect with the 'brand', and your other hand can control the [Furnace] to perform 'Furnace Refining.'"

"And the process of 'Furnace Refining' is not complicated. You only need to put a powerful deformed soul into the [Furnace] and use your own 'Hero' power as 'firewood'. The [Furnace] will automatically extract the most suitable characteristics of the deformed soul according to your wishes, and refine it into weapons or props."

"This is the 'Paladin Soul' collected in the Yellow Cult, please accept it."

Listening to Archbishop Luca's explanation, Ryan took the soul she handed over, which was red in the black and made the surrounding temperature rise slightly.

——

[Black Paladin Soul]: A deformed soul with power belonging to the Black Knight of the Black Church. After using it, a small amount of [Soul Crystal] can be obtained, and its true power can also be extracted through "Furnace Refining".

The Black Knights wandering in the world, they used to serve the "Initial Cinder King".

The king who followed the "Wind Heat" was also burned, and since then he turned into ashes and continued to wander in the world.

The soul eroded by the "Wind Heat" carries a scorching high temperature.

——

Scanning the introduction of the panel, Ryan's eyes flashed with surprise.

Black Church, Black Knight, Initial Cinder King...

Wind Heat, with the information provided by Archbishop Luca before, Ryan can easily deduce that it refers to the power of one of the three sons of the gods, the King of Heat·Sin Flame Lord.

From this, it can be seen that the Black Church follows the King of Heat·Sin Flame Lord.

But the question is, why is the King of Heat·Sin Flame Lord the "Initial Cinder King"?

This is quite intriguing.

I'm afraid that the King of Heat, Lord Sin Flame, fell into eternal sleep in the volcano of the Central Continent, which is also related to this.

Thoughts were flowing in his mind, but Ryan did not show any on the surface. He nodded slightly to Archbishop Luka on the platform, indicating that he knew.

Seeing this, Archbishop Luka fell on the platform and stretched out her slender and tender white palm from the edge of the platform: "Lord God, you just need to hold my hand later."

After that, she slowly closed her eyes, and under Ryan's gaze, golden and red lines began to emerge and spread on her body.

A faint sense of warmth began to permeate the hall, and the temperature was getting higher and higher, so that a large number of Mars particles appeared in the air.

"Is this one of the proofs of the 'King of Fire'?"

Ryan thought so, and reached out to hold Archbishop Luka's hand.

Although it exuded a scorching high temperature, Archbishop Luka's hand seemed very cold, like the feeling of coal ash cooled down after the firewood was dried.

Putting away the different thoughts in his mind, Ryan raised his other hand and touched the surface of the [Old Furnace].

The golden-red lines, starting from the Archbishop and Ryan's clasped hands, extended all the way to Ryan's arms and torso.

This made Ryan feel as if nature was burning, and the spirituality emitted by him also made the [Old Furnace] react.

His spirituality, and even his blood, were regarded as burning "firewood" by the [Old Furnace]. A raging fire ignited from the bottom of the furnace, causing some strange changes between the [Crown Dragon Slayer Greatsword] and the [Black Paladin Soul] thrown into the furnace.

Ryan couldn't understand the specific process. When the furnace's thirst for his energy disappeared, the flames gradually subsided, and what came into his eyes was a great sword with several more golden-red lines on the surface of the sword body compared to the original one.

——

[Greatsword·Black Slash]: Man-made high-level wonder (holy weapon). Based on the body material of the [Grand] Sword Dragon Slayer, supplemented by the unique power of the [Black Paladin Soul], this strange greatsword is "refined in the furnace".

The highly compressed and tempered sword has an unimaginable weight. Under the heavy blade is the flowing exploding magma. Every slash, in addition to physical damage, will also cause terrifying exploding and burning damage - the hidden fire echoes the hunter's fighting spirit and burns the soul of the prey!

The specially refined sword body is extremely tough and difficult to destroy. Due to the special nature of the [Black Paladin] soul, the damage caused by this weapon will greatly affect the enemy's body balance (toughness), with combat skills: [Toughness].

[Toughness]: Greatly improve its own toughness in a short period of time, and at the same time, the damage of the next attack hitting the enemy's body will greatly destroy the enemy's toughness. Once the enemy's toughness is reduced to 0, it will fall into a short-term "body imbalance" phenomenon, during which the damage received will increase by 100%!

Inlay skills: [Fatal Strike lv.1], [Flaw lv.1]

[This item contains a "medium amount" of spiritual essence, which can improve the rank of [Nameless Ship Sculpture] after absorption.]

——

Looking at the introduction of the new weapon [Great Sword·Black Slash] on the panel in front of him, Ryan smiled happily.

After "refining in the furnace", [Crown Dragon Slayer Great Sword] became [Great Sword·Black Slash], and its own toughness has increased significantly. In this way, Ryan no longer has to worry about the problem of weapon damage in the next battle with "Lord of Fire".

Not only that, the newly refined greatsword also has a special thing Ryan had never seen before - combat skills.

"This thing should be one of the manifestations of the extraordinary system in this world, right?"

Ryan thought.

The "toughness" and "body imbalance" mentioned in the combat skill [Toughness] are somewhat similar to the "fainting" he caused to the monster when he defeated the monster in the Monster Hunter World.

In the early stage of the journey in the Monster Hunter World, the "fainting" state helped him win many opportunities to charge and slash with the greatsword, but as the monsters he encountered later became more and more powerful, especially after reaching the crown level, he never made the monster fall into "fainting".

On the one hand, the corresponding resistance of the monster has become extremely high, and on the other hand, it is also related to the fact that the weapon Ryan uses is a greatsword, not a blunt weapon that is good at causing "dizziness".

Now, with the blessing of [Combat Skill-Tenacity], when he returns to the Monster Hunter World and explores the Everfrost Continent, can he cause "fainting" and "physical imbalance" to the monsters of the crown rank or even above the crown rank to speed up the efficiency of the crusade?

Ryan is looking forward to it.

As the "Furnace Refining" ended, Ryan did not let go of Archbishop Luca's hand in a hurry, but asked her: "Ms. Luca, I want to ask you a question."

"If the sword spirit in the weapon falls into a deep sleep due to injury, can "Furnace Refining" be used to help it wake up?"

Archbishop Luca opened her eyes, and at this moment, even her pupils turned golden red.

Facing Ryan's question, she thought for a moment and replied: "Sword Soul? Is it a special soul born in the weapon..."

"I heard that the weapon of the strongest 'Son of God' Lord Sin Flame in the past was the existence of an autonomous soul, but it's a pity that I didn't get to see it."

"I can't give an accurate answer to what you said, but judging from my personal experience, if the sword soul falls into a deep sleep due to injury, it is not a good thing to force it to wake up at this time. The key is to allow its soul to be fully repaired."

"In addition to the slow autonomous repair of the sword soul itself, the soul power can be actively transmitted from the outside to speed up its repair."

"And replenishing the soul power for the soul body should not be difficult from the principle of 'Furnace Refining', and it is theoretically achievable."

"But if you think of doing this, even the soul of a 'Paladin' cannot meet the standard. At the very least, it must be the soul of a 'Hero'."

"Now, there is no way to try."

Ryan nodded slowly.

Archbishop Luka's words made sense. Forcibly awakening Noel before she recovered was a secondary injury to her. In comparison, it was more reliable to replenish Noel's soul power.

After all, it was always good to replenish more soul power.

Thinking of this, Ryan let go of Archbishop Luka's hand.

"Next, I will set off to find the source of the 'aftermath of the catastrophe'."

"If I can find a powerful deformed soul on the way, I will trouble you again."

"You're welcome." Archbishop Luka propped up her body, and her plump fruits swayed slightly: "It's my honor to serve you."

"By the way, take this."

Ryan took the thing handed over by Archbishop Luka and took a closer look.

It was a dark bone fragment.

——

[Return to the bone fragment (bound to the teleportation place-Starlight City)]: The magical bone fragment found by Archbishop Luka of the Yellow Sect next to the "First Wind" has magical power.

When in a safe environment, blow a breath towards the return bone fragment. After ten seconds, the holder will return to the bound teleportation place and leave a "punctuation" at the original place. This "punctuation" can be used to complete a long-distance round trip within a day. It can be used at most once a day.

ps: Even if they turn into bones, they are still attracted by the "wind".

——

What a good thing!

Ryan's eyes lit up.

With this [Return Bone Fragment], no matter where he is in this world in the future, he can quickly return to the Starlight City for "Furnace Refining", and it is also very convenient to return.

It saves a lot of time.

The only pity is that this thing can only be used once, and the teleportation takes 10 seconds, which cannot be used as an emergency retreat in wartime.

But Ryan is also satisfied.

Nodding slightly to Archbishop Luka, Ryan put on the [Great Sword·Black Slash] on his back, put away the [Old Furnace], and turned to walk out of the Huangji Temple.

Archbishop Luka on the high platform did not retract his gaze until Ryan's back completely disappeared.

She clasped her hands together in front of her chest and whispered in a voice that only she could hear: "The wind is finally back..."

...

After leaving the Huangji Temple, Ryan returned to the teleportation array under Quinn's respectful leadership.

"Lord Zifeng, do you need me to lead the way next?"

Ryan waved his hand: "No need, the place I'm going to next is too dangerous, even I can't be absolutely sure that I can protect your life and safety."

"I can go alone."

"In addition." Ryan looked at the respectful man in front of him and smiled: "You have worked hard all the way, this secret method is my parting gift to you."

"If you meet someone with qualifications, you can teach it, I don't mind."

Without waiting for Quinn to say anything, Ryan had come to Quinn and raised his finger to lightly touch his forehead.

Quinn's eyes went dark, and in a trance, a bright sword light slashed towards him.

When his vision returned to normal, Ryan's figure was no longer in front of him. Feeling the secret method called "Storm Swordsmanship" in his mind, his eyes were excited but also at a loss.

How can I be worthy of this gift from Lord Ryan...

…

On the other side, Ryan has used the teleportation array to leave the Starlight City.

As for teaching Quinn the "Storm Sword Skill", it was a decision he made after thinking about it.

On the one hand, this world is different from the world where the main body is located. Extraordinary people pay more attention to the tempering of the body. In a sense, it is more suitable for the storm swordsmanship. And to be able to become a member of the Yellow Sect war group, Quinn's compatibility with the wind attribute It must not be low.

On the other hand, it is Ryan's selfishness. After reaching the master level of Storm Swordsmanship, he was already struggling. When he looked ahead, everything was gray and he couldn't see the direction forward.

Only then did Ryan understand why someone as powerful as Azure Leader in swordsmanship eventually chose a shortcut instead of the orthodox method of nurturing the sword soul.

The realm above the master level is really too difficult...

Leader Tianqing has been practicing hard for nearly five hundred years, but he still can't find the direction.

If leader Tian Qing is given enough time, it is possible for his swordsmanship to break through to the master level, but unfortunately, human lifespan will eventually end.

This also made Ryan understand that one person's power has its limit.

Although he can travel across all realms, a person's power is ultimately limited.

Instead of clinging to swordsmanship and dying in the tomb, it is better to spread the storm swordsmanship to this world and gather the wisdom of the world to deduce the path after the Grandmaster level.

At the moment, Quinn is just a pilot. If there is a chance in the future, Ryan will promote the Storm Sword Technique to the entire world.

Ryan doesn't know whether this is effective, but after all, it is just a casual move. It is a good thing to gain something, but it doesn't matter if it doesn't.

After leaving for a long time, the brass carriage was still in the same place, and the war horse did not dare to leave. Upon seeing this, Ryan smiled knowingly, sat in front of the carriage, and started driving himself.

The target is directly towards the Poison Swamp Forest!

The other branches of the Brass Temple are too far away, and as for the Brass Saint Aeochilis, Ryan has no confidence in defeating him at the moment.

Although [Great Sword·Black Slash] is much stronger than before, it is still in the category of high-level rare items and cannot allow Ryan to maintain an advantage when facing Saint Iocillis.

Therefore, the biggest purpose of his trip is to find at least "brave" level souls in the poisonous swamp woods. If there is a chance, he will explore the ancient ruins and take a look at the status of the "Wolf Blood Knights" of King Xin. , if you have the chance, you can also try your hand at the legendary "Thing in the Abyss".

"Gulu gulu..."

Brass carriages sped along the roads.

After a while, the outline of the poisonous swamp woods gradually appeared in Ryan's eyes.

The dark swamp with a light purple tint was obviously not a terrain that the wheels of a carriage could pass through.

After getting out of the car, Ryan placed the brass carriage in a relatively secret location outside the poisonous swamp woods and left a pile of food for the war horse.

"Wait for me here."

After leaving these words, Ryan turned around and officially headed towards the Poison Swamp Forest!
