Divine & Bizarre: Increasing Points to Invincibility-Chapter 849 - 233: The Great Yan Emperor’s Shock! The Life-Saver is a Wanted Criminal?
After inserting the City God’s Command into his waistband, Fan Wu fiddled with the two small beads as if they were walnuts. He could feel that one of these beads contained the aura of the Demon Wolf Commander, while the other possessed the aura of the Laws-Phantom Demon Venerable.
Why would a bead from inside the Demon Wolf Commander’s body appear on the Laws-Phantom Demon Venerable? Was it because... they had some kind of master-servant relationship? And was such a bead critically important to Demons and Devils, or to extremely powerful ghosts?
"Could it be the so-called ’Golden Core’ mentioned in novels?" Fan Wu mumbled to himself when he suddenly felt the Demon-slaying Sword on his back tremble faintly.
The frequency of this tremor was not particularly high, probably imperceptible to the average person, similar to a mosquito landing on the skin.
But who was Fan Wu? He keenly captured such a vibration!
"Oh?" Fan Wu said with a smile, "Are you interested in these things?"
Fan Wu once again unsheathed the Demon-slaying Sword that he had just put away, and now he could see with his eyes—the blade of the Demon-slaying Sword was quivering at a low frequency. This eerie trembling seemed like a response to the question Fan Wu had posed to the sword.
"It seems you’ve developed a bit of Spiritual Wisdom, just like the City God’s Command," said Fan Wu. Then he placed one of the beads he had just acquired on the blade of the Demon-slaying Sword.
This bead was the one filled with the aura of the Laws-Phantom Demon Venerable. When Fan Wu placed it on the blade of the Demon-slaying Sword, it actually emitted a faint glow!
It melted quickly at a visible speed, turning into a puddle of liquid that flowed straight into the blade of the Demon-slaying Sword.
Whether it was an illusion or not, Fan Wu almost thought he heard a greedy slurping sound.
It was like someone was sucking up a liquid through a straw.
A faint glow was also emanating from the blade of the Demon-slaying Sword.
Fan Wu felt the Demon-slaying Sword had become sharper than before.
This was a very odd sensation.
"What is this? Enchantment? Quenching? Forging?" Fan Wu blurted out several terms associated with online games from his previous world. He wasn’t sure if his guess was correct, but from what he was seeing, it seemed to be more or less accurate, right?
"And there’s one more..." Fan Wu said to the City God’s Command at his waist, "can you also consume this thing?"
As he spoke these words, Fan Wu distinctly felt a burst of exultation from the City God’s Command.
Then the City God’s Command, which he had placed at his waist, took the initiative, floated into the air, and rushed headlong towards the last bead in his hand. Instantly, that bead also turned into a thick liquid and merged into the body of the City God’s Command.
The red glow emanating from the City God’s Command became even more noticeable and more dazzling. This appearance seemed to indicate it had been somewhat strengthened. At any rate, Fan Wu felt that both the City God’s Command and the Demon-slaying Sword had become slightly more powerful than before.
Both of them... could probably be considered magical artifacts, right? Could it be that magical artifacts, like people, could continually become stronger?
Oh... that seems right!
If a Cultivator kept getting stronger, they couldn’t possibly keep changing their magical artifacts, could they? After getting familiar with a magical artifact, it would become unsuitable once they achieved a breakthrough in cultivation, then they would just switch to a new magical artifact?
That would clearly make no sense.
"So this thing is meant for you to consume... It looks like I’ve acquired yet another piece of strange knowledge." Fan Wu, who knew nothing about Cultivation, thought he might read some books on the subject when he had some free time.
For him to study Cultivation techniques would be impossible, as that would simply be a waste of time. He could use that time to wander around and earn more Free Attribute Points instead.
However, he found himself somewhat interested in learning little tidbits about Cultivation, if only to avoid having to guess and speculate in these kinds of situations in the future.
As myriad thoughts flashed through his mind and he put away the Demon-slaying Sword and the City God’s Command, Fan Wu looked up at the sky.
There, amidst the sky shrouded in dark clouds, the national fate ’Golden Dragon’ that was trapped by black chains seemed to have broken free.
The black chains that ensnared the Golden Dragon shattered with a thunderous crash under Fan Wu’s gaze.
The previously restrained Golden Dragon let out a faint roar at that moment. This ethereal roar swept away the overcasting clouds in the sky, restoring the clear blue sky and allowing the long-missed sunlight to shine down, casting light upon the Great Yan Dynasty’s wounded land and giving the people a dream-like sensation.
...
"It’s over..." A Cultivator from the Imperial Court within the Great Yan Imperial Palace let out a sigh of relief, exhaling a heavy breath. It was then he realized that his back had been drenched in cold sweat, and he felt as if he had been fished out of the water.
