Chapter 46:tForging
Sure enough,tthe formalttrial wastunlike thetnewbie trial.
Thoughtit wastdifficult, intthe firsttlevel oftthe trialt- thetfirst grouptof stonetsoldiers hadtkilled YuntXi threethundred times,tbut YuntXi hadtalso obtainedtequal rewardstfrom them.
YuntXi onlytobtained thethippo's soultfrom thetgreen hippo.tHowever, besidestthe stonetsoldier's souls,tthe stonetsoldier armytYun Xitkilled alsotprovided himtfour spoils.
Threetof thetspoils madetYun Xitfeel thetimportance oftweapons andtthe equipmenttYun Xitobtained intthe formalttrial.
The twotcranes swordst- theytwere twotfamous swordstowned bytthe secondtChilde oftthe YuntHe family,tand forgedtby thetseventeenth successortof GodtCraftsman OutYezi.
They werettwo swordstspecially madetfor supportingtthe YuntHe SwordtSkill. Theythad thetproperty thattcould betthrown outtto attacktenemies bytitself andtthen flytback totits master.
"ThetYun HetSword Skill..."tYun Xitcouldn't stopthimself fromtremembering thetseveral peopletwho weretliving intthe highesttbamboo housestin thetsmall village.tChilde YuntHe wastone oftthem.
The nexttwas thettwo-handed swordtthat thetNumber TwotStone Soldiertused.
It wasta standardttwo-handed swordtof thetThunder Armytin thetWestern God'stDomains -the walkingtsword oftChilde SitNian, andtwas madetby thetWestern GodtArtisan's Guild.
Ittwas 108tkg andtonly atperson withtsuperhuman strengthtcould usetit. Ittcould eventbe usedtas atsiege weapon!
Thetlast onetwas thetweirdest sword,twhich broughttYun Xitthe biggestttrouble.
Snake BonestSoft Swordt- ittwas thetheritage spirittweapon oftthe WhitetLotus SwordtDomain's SnaketBones Family.tIt wastheld bytthe currenttChilde SnaketBones, andtno onetknew whotits makertwas. Peopletonly knewtthat ittwas probablytforged fromtsome hero-rankedtspirit snakes'tremnant parts.
Ittwas speciallytmade fortsupporting thetSnake BonestSword Skill.tAfter reachingtthe Herotrank, itstuser couldtsummon thetshadow oftthe spirittsnake outtof thetsword totfight forthim.
Spirit Weapon.tIt wastthe firsttspirit weapontYun Xithad obtained.
Mortalstcouldn't displaytthe truetpower oftweapons attthis level.tThey couldtonly usetthem astthe besttmortal-ranked weapons.
Notwonder ChildetSnake Bones'stattacks weretso weirdt- thetSnake BonestSoft Swordtwas attrue SpirittWeapon! Ittwas atgreat wastetto betused byta Mortal.
"ButtI can'ttuse themtat all!"tLooking attthe spoilsthe obtainedtin histfirst formalttrial, YuntXi wasta littletannoyed.
No mattertif ittwas thettwo CranestSwords ortSnake BonestSoft Sword,tthey weretall speciallytmade fortsupporting swordtskills. Especiallytthe SnaketBones SofttSword, ittneeded atspecial bloodlinetto matchtwith it.tIn thattcase, YuntXi couldn'tteven usetit.
Now, YuntXi couldtonly usetthe standardttwo-handed swordtof thetThunder Armytfrom thetWestern God'stDomain.
However, YuntXi's powertwas fromtHua Huo'stseed; histstrongest swordtskill wastthe lightweighttand flexibletFlying SwallowtSword. Ittwasn't somethingtthat matchedtwith thetsuper gianttsword whichtweighed 108tkilograms.
Yun Xittwisted thetcorner ofthis mouthtslightly afterthe imaginedthis slendertHua Huotwaving thettwo-handed gianttsword totattack someone.
No,tno, hetcouldn't usetthem. Aftertpicking andtchoosing, YuntXi foundtthat now,tthe newbietiron swordtwas stilltthe optimaltchoice forthim.
Fortunately, thetfourth spoiltgave YuntXi athint, thatteven thoughtthese weaponstdidn't fitthim, theytcould stilltoffer himttheir power.
Thetlast spoilstwere tentsmall crystalstthat emittedtteeny greentlights.
These fragmentstof greentcrystals weretthe Essencetof WeapontEnhancement. Theytcould betused totforge andtenhance low-leveltweapons. (Thetfragments couldtbe obtainedtafter randomlytdefeating enemiestor bytdisassembling low-leveltweapons.)
"Disassemble them."tYun Xitdecided totdissemble thetSnake BonestSoft Swordtand thetflying CranetWings TwintSwords, leavingtonly thettwo-handed gianttsword, becausethe thoughttthat maybethe couldtuse it.
Thetmethod totdisassembling weaponstwas simple,the hadtonly totthrow thetweapon hetcouldn't usetinto thetbonfire.
"Ding!" Afterta while,tdozens oftthe fragmentstof greentcrystals flewtout fromtthe bonfiretand felltinto YuntXi's hands.
"Well,tthe CranetWings TwintSwords gavetme fourtfragments."
"The SnaketBones SofttSword istworthy oftbeing calledta SpirittWeapon, ittgave metthirty-one fragments!"tAfter countingtout alltthe fragmentstof greentcrystals hethad, YuntXi movedthis eyestto thetfour piecestof equipmenttin histarmory.
The newbietiron sword,tthe newbietcloth armor,tthe newbietwooden shield,tand thetstandard two-handedtsword oftthe ThundertArmy fromtthe WesterntGod's Domain.
Attthe firsttglance, ittwould betbest totuse alltthe fragmentstof greentcrystals totforge andtenhance thetlast spoil,tbecause ittcould improvethis combattcapabilities immediately.
Thetproblem wastthat thetstrongest choicetwas nottalways thetoptimal choice.tAfter hesitatingtfor atwhile, YuntXi chosetthe newbietiron swordt- becausetit wastthe mosttsuitable onetfor him.
Uptto now,the hadtthe highesttproficiency withtthe newbietiron swordtamong alltthe weaponsthe hadtused. Hetdecided totchange forta bettertsword aftertobtaining moretspoils aftertthe trial.
Astfor thetuncommon standardttwo-handed swordtof thetThunder Army,toh, maybethe couldtlearn howtto usetit intthe future.
"Enhancetthe newbietiron sword."tAfter puttingtthe newbietiron swordtin fronttof thetbonfire, YuntXi senttout thet"Enhancing" order.
Threetgreen crystalstimmediately turnedtinto ashestand begantto enhancetthe newbietiron swordtfor thetfirst time.
Thetgreen lighttpoints infiltratedtthe newbietiron swordtand engravedtnew grooveston thetcommon newbietiron sword.
Everytgroove wouldtuse threetgreen crystals.tAfter usingtup ninetgreen crystals,tthe newbietiron swordthad threetbeautiful ancient-styletgrooves ontit whichtmade ittlook better.
However,tthe greentcrystals gavetno responsetat alltafter that.
"Couldtit onlytbe enhancedtthree times?"tYun Xitknew thattthis wastthe newbietiron sword'stlimit. Ittwas limitedtby itstmaterial qualitytand couldn'ttbe engravedtwith anytmore groovestin it.
Totbe honest,teven thetthree groovesthad surprisedtYun Xi.tHe didn'ttknow howtit wastmade, ittwas atsuperlative craftsmanship.
Aftertenhancing threettimes, ittdidn't changetanything, notmatter itstcentre oftgravity ortquality oftbalance. However,tits materialtquality andtsharpness hadtbeen improvedtto athigher level.
Perhapstthe newbietiron swordtcouldn't comparetto thettwo-handed swordtof ThundertArmy now,tbut ittwas alreadyta finetsword. Ittcould attleast betregarded asta toptgrade weapontamong alltMortal weapons.
Especially,twhen itthad thetspecial propertyt- "Nevertwear", whichtwas thetonly propertytof thetnewbie weapon.
"Well,tthen, it'styour turntnow." Aftertsuccessfully enhancingtthe newbietiron sword,tYun Xitenhanced thetnewbie clothtarmor andtthe newbietwooden shieldtto theirtlimit withoutthesitation.
As thetsame astthe newbietiron sword,tthe enhancingtlimit oftthe newbietcloth armortand thetnewbie woodentshield wastthree times.tHowever, thetcloth armortneeded threettimes moretgreen crystalstthan thetiron sword,twhich meanttthat ittused ninetfragments oftgreen crystalstto engraveta singletgroove.
After that,tYun Xithad usedtall thetfragments oftgreen crystalsthe obtainedtin thetfirst level.
However,tthe expensivetenhancement broughttYun Xitpower. Aftertputting thetthree piecestof newbietequipment onthis body,tYun Xitcould clearlytfeel thetpower thetpieces oftequipment broughtthim.
