Chapter 4 The Prototype of the Magic Weapon; the Spiritual Sword Pill

"This object is called the Shenxing Zhou. It is a mid-grade flying spiritual weapon. It is made from the skeleton of the second-level wind attribute monster, the Wind Eagle. Its flying speed is extremely fast during the foundation building period..."

"If you activate it with all your magic power, even the monks in the middle stage of foundation building will have a hard time catching up. Moreover, there is a groove on the boat. If you put in the middle-grade wind attribute spirit stone to activate it, the speed will be enough to rival the monks in the late stage of foundation building. .....”

A medium-grade spiritual weapon? It’s actually the rarest flying magic weapon? !

After hearing Fang Yuechan's words, Su Ming stared at the black boat with joy in his eyes.

Because flying magic weapons are more difficult to refine and their materials are rarer, their value is often higher than magic weapons of the same level.

If the Shenxingzhou, a mid-grade flying spiritual weapon, were put up for auction, it would probably be snapped up by monks in the foundation-building stage, and the price would probably not be lower than a normal high-grade spiritual weapon.

Immortality is precious, and monks who run fast often live longer. Who would think that he flies too fast?

"Spiritual weapons are no longer of great use to me as a teacher. I don't deliberately collect them on weekdays. Otherwise, with the characteristics of the body of water virtue, the power of your water-attributed spiritual weapons can still be three points stronger..."

Just this mid-grade flying spiritual weapon made Su Ming feel a little dazed, but from Fang Yuechan's tone, it seemed that he was still dissatisfied and felt that he was not very good at it.

This tone once again refreshed Su Ming's understanding of the "gap between rich and poor" in the world of immortality.

After introducing Shen Xingzhou, Fang Yuechan pointed to the small silver ball next to her and introduced it with such a flat tone that Su Ming almost turned to stone.

It's not that he has no experience, it's that Su Ming can't even imagine the world of "rich people".

"This object is called 'Psychic Sword Pill'. It is a special spiritual weapon. It was obtained by my master from an ancient sword cultivator's cave. There are three in total..."

"One of them was refined into a natal flying sword by my master, the other was given to your senior sister He Ru, and this last one is for you..."

Fang Yuechan pointed at the silver ball and said, a trace of reluctance could be heard in her tone.

After all, Su Ming was a "poor man". He had never heard of "Psychic Sword Pills" or special spiritual weapons, and his reaction was not as great as when he learned about the effect of Shen Xingzhou.

"This disciple has little knowledge and dares to ask the master, what is a special spiritual weapon?"

However, Su Ming was thick-skinned and did not feel embarrassed at all, and asked Fang Yuechan directly.

"With your cultivation level, it's not surprising that you don't know about special spiritual weapons..."

Hearing Su Ming's question, Fang Yuechan's eyes flashed with understanding, and then she explained:

"In ancient times, spiritual energy was abundant, and there were countless rare materials and treasures..."

"In that era, there was also the term spiritual weapon, but the spiritual weapon at that time was fundamentally different from the spiritual weapon in the current world of immortality..."

"The spiritual weapons that the ancient monks pursued were all made of extremely rare materials. They sought to enlighten the magical weapons so that they would naturally produce a trace of spirituality..."

"This kind of spiritual weapon refined by ancient methods is also called a true weapon. It requires monks to refine it with essence and blood. Once it recognizes its owner, other monks cannot use it. Forcibly using it will only greatly reduce its power and prevent it from displaying its true power. Power..."

"As the concentration of the spiritual energy of heaven and earth gradually decreases, most of these rare materials have now disappeared in the world of immortality. This ancient method of refining weapons has gradually declined..."

"The current spirit weapon to seal the spirit of monsters is actually a method improved by monks later. It is a trick. Although the cost of refining the spirit weapon is greatly reduced, the degree of mystery is far less than the spirit weapon refined by ancient monks... "

"And these spiritual weapons that have been passed down from ancient times and have not been refined are called 'special spiritual weapons' by monks like us..."

Hearing Fang Yuechan's words, Su Ming's eyes flashed with strangeness, and he couldn't help but ask: "Why does this disciple feel that this 'special spiritual weapon' is so similar to the current natal magic weapon?"

Hearing this, Fang Yuechan nodded, a hint of appreciation flashing in his eyes.

"What you said is true. Although the ancient monk's and my cultivation methods reach the same goal through different paths, they are still very different..."

"The natal magic weapon of the Golden Core Stage monks was originally derived from the refining process of the real weapon by later generations of monks, so the 'special spiritual weapon' is also called the 'prototype of the magic weapon'..."

"Although this 'Psychic Sword Pill' is not a magic weapon yet, it does have some properties of a magic weapon. You only need to refine it with your blood essence, and then it can be absorbed into your body to be warmed and nourished like a magic weapon..."

"The power of the 'Psychic Sword Pill' at the beginning is not much different from that of a mid-grade spiritual weapon. But as your cultivation level increases, the power of the 'Psychic Sword Pill' will continue to increase... ..”

"If one day, you can successfully advance to the golden elixir stage, this 'Psychic Sword Pill' will advance accordingly and turn into another magic weapon of yours!"

Speaking of this, Fang Yuechan's fierce sword intent appeared on her body, and her tone became serious: "Master gives you this thing to protect your way, in the hope that you will practice well and one day be able to break through the golden elixir stage and become a member of our generation. .....”

"Don't let this 'Psychic Sword Pill' get dusty!"

As if he was aware of Fang Yuechan's sword intent, the "Psychic Sword Pill" in front of Su Ming flashed with silver light, and actually made a crisp sword sound.

"Disciples must work hard to cultivate and never let down Master's high expectations!"

Su Ming bowed his hands and bowed seriously to Fang Yuechan.

Just the words "prototype of magic weapon" made Su Ming realize how precious this thing was.

Fang Yuechan was able to give it to Su Ming, which means that she really believed that Su Ming had a chance to glimpse the golden elixir road. Otherwise, as a sword cultivator, she would never give the "Spiritual Sword Pill" to a mediocre person.

"Master does not like these vulgar rituals. You have just broken through the foundation-building stage, and there are still many things to do..."

"Retreat!"

After saying that, Fang Yuechan waved to Su Ming, indicating that he could leave.

Seeing this, Su Ming put away his storage bag, bowed respectfully, and left the bamboo building.

"I don't know if I saw the wrong person..."

Fang Yuechan looked at Su Ming's back as he left the cave, and a rare flash of pain flashed in her eyes. She said to herself in a voice that only she could hear:

"The 'Spiritual Sword Pill' can only be refined once. Ru'er already has it, and I don't plan to continue to accept disciples. Just give it to him!"

After finding a reason to comfort herself, Fang Yuechan's eyes became calm again, opened the cave restriction, and continued to practice.

......

In fact, Fang Yuechan did not intend to give this last "Spiritual Sword Pill" to Su Ming at first. She prepared the Divine Wind Boat and another water-attributed medium-grade spiritual weapon.

However, after knowing that Su Ming had awakened his spiritual body, Fang Yuechan considered again and again and decided to give this "Spiritual Sword Pill" to Su Ming.

What Su Ming did not know was that the value of the "Spiritual Sword Pill" was even greater than he imagined. Even in the era of ancient cultivators with abundant resources for cultivation, this thing was a rare treasure and would be fought over by countless sword cultivators.

There was only one reason why Fang Yuechan gave it to Su Ming so generously.

Inexperience!

As a cultivator with a natural spiritual root, Fang Yuechan had high aptitude and strong comprehension. She was a talisman master herself, and she was supported and cultivated by the sect. It took only sixty years from the Qi Refining Stage to the successful Dan Formation Stage.

Even now, Fang Yuechan is less than eighty years old. Among the Jindan cultivators with a lifespan of five hundred years, she is completely a little girl.

If Zhou Yan and Wang Haoyu were old Jindan Zhenren who had more than two dozen disciples, they would never give such treasures to their disciples unless they were blood relatives.

It was because she had no experience in teaching disciples that Fang Yuechan was so generous.

Strictly speaking, Su Ming was Fang Yuechan's first direct disciple.

As for He Ru, she was Fang Yuechan's "daughter" who had been raised since she was a child. Whenever there was something good, Fang Yuechan would think of her precious niece first.

It was because he was used to being generous to He Ru that Su Ming, as a direct disciple, had the opportunity to get this "Spiritual Sword Pill" that neither of them could use.
