âCongratulations, Host! Youâve won a God-tier item, Thousand Illusory Steel!â
In the academy, Chu Kuangren got up early in the morning to do his gacha roll.
âThousand Illusory Steel? It sounds like some casting material.â
Chu Kuangren tapped open the description of the item.
âThousand Illusory Steel can be ever-changing. If cast into a weapon, it is malleable and has endless mysteries. Other than that, its toughness can be improved by either absorbing heavenly and earthly spiritual qi or being refined by cultivatorsâ¦â
Chu Kuangrenâs eyes lit up at that description, and he subconsciously put his hand on the Descendant Self Sword on his waist.
âItâs time for your upgrade, Descendant Self Sword. The Thousand Illusory Steel came just in time.â He grinned and withdrew the Thousand Illusory Steel from his inventory.
The white jade-like mineral of a fist-size was warm and soft. As Chu Kuangren pressed hard with his finger, a fingerprint appeared immediately and then disappeared slowly.
It was like plasticine.
âCould it be used for refining?â
Chu Kuangren was amazed.
As such, he started to analyze with the Omniscient Spirit to obtain more information about it and then prepared the tools to forge the Thousand Illusory Steel.
Chu Kuangrenâs current weaponsmithing was at such an advanced level that it was not an exaggeration to call him a Weapons Immortal.
With the help of the Omniscient Spirit, the refining process went relatively smooth without any major problems.
However, halfway through the refining process, Chu Kuangren suddenly thought of the ancient talisman that Gu Wuqing showed him a few days ago.
The ancient talisman was a combination of runes and weaponsmithing.
These days, he had been busy experimenting.
âWhy not attach some runes to this divine weapon to enhance its power?â Chu Kuangren had a flash of inspiration.
He took out a Dao Proclamation Seal that was formed by the will of the great Universal Dao and had the effect of enhancing Immortal Techniques. However, it was also a kind of rune, the highest-level Daoist rune made by the Universal Dao.
âIf I integrate the Dao Proclamation Seal into this divine weapon, will it also have the function of enhancing Immortal Techniques?
âLil Ai, is it possible?â asked Chu Kuangren.
âAnalyzingâ¦â
âThe analysis shows that the feasibility is eighty percent.â The Omniscient Spirit, Lil Aiâs voice sounded.
Upon hearing that, a glint flashed in Chu Kuangrenâs eyes. âEighty percent feasibility⦠Itâs worth a try.â
Looking at the Thousand illusory Steel being calcined by the Phoenixâs Flame in front of him, Chu Kuangren took a deep breath and released the Dao Proclamation Seal from his body. By using a Runic Weaponsmithing Technique, he carefully applied a Dao Proclamation Seal to it.
After several hours, a mysterious rune appeared on the Thousand Illusory Steelâs surface that was precisely the pattern of a Dao Proclamation Seal.
Chu Kuangren was overjoyed. âIt worked!â
Next, he refined all the Dao Proclamation Seals in his body, one by one, onto Thousand Illusory Steel, and the runes on it increased in numbers.
Finally, a ray of light shot into the sky one day!
Conjurations such as auspicious and colorful clouds in the sky, divine beasts coming from all directions to congratulate, a Kylin trodding the sea, golden lotuses blooming from the ground, Daoist chimes sounding, and many more appeared.
Those conjurations shook the entire academy, and everyone looked toward the source of the transformations.
After seeing where the transformations came from, everyone did not look surprised.
âItâs Master Chu again.â
âApart from Master Chu, who else can create such commotion in the academy?â
âMaster Chu is powerful enough to be able to create these conjurations. I wonder what he is doing.â
âWe can never figure out Master Chuâs abilities.â
âWhat is he doing this time?â
The crowd was curious.
A ball of burning golden flame emerged while everyone was trying to spy with their Immortal Consciousness.
There was a longsword in the flame.
âThatâs Master Chuâs sword?â
âIt canât be. Master Chuâs sword doesnât have such power. Although it looks exactly the same, this one is an Immortal Weapon. However, its aura tells me that it is probably not an ordinary Immortal Weapon but⦠an Earthen Immortal Weapon!â
âAnd Master Chu forged it.â
Everyone was amazed, to say the least.
Even though they had long known that Chu Kuangren could forge weapons, they were surprised that he could make an Immortal Weapon at the level of at least an Earthen Immortal.
They could not help but think, âApart from giving birth to a child, is there anything Master Chu canât do?â
Many conjurations occurred with the birth of an Immortal Sword, but Chu Kuangrenâs expression remained solemn. âThereâs still one last step.â
He looked at an ancient white sword, which was the Descendant Self Sword, next to him. However, its shape was somewhat illusory.
It was the soul of Descendant Self Sword!
The body of the sword had integrated with the Thousand Illusory Steel after Chu Kuangren threw it into the Phoenixâs Flame. However, he had separated the Sword Soul beforehand so that the Descendant Self Sword would survive should something go wrong.
âDescendant Self Sword, Iâve made the sword body for you, but it depends on whether you can integrate with it,â said Chu Kuangren solemnly.
The Descendant Self Sword trembled lightly as if responding to Chu Kuangren. Then, its figure shook and turned into a ray of light that flew into the swordâs body.
As the sword and its soul began to integrate, the Descendant Self Swordâs body trembled non-stop, and waves of surging sword aura swept in all directions.
Everyone was surprised to feel the aura.
âSword Soul?â
âI canât believe Master Chuâs sword can nurture a complete soul. Itâs amazing.â
Humâ¦
The Descendant Self Swordâs body trembled continuously.
Eventually, the sword aura reached its peak. At the end, the Phoenixâs Flames dissipated, and the Descendant Self Sword rose into the sky, flying freely in the void like a reborn bird.
âHa! I succeeded.â Chu Kuangren laughed and breathed a sigh of relief.
He was well prepared. If the Descendant Self Sword could not integrate into the sword body, he would separate them by force again.
Nonetheless, the Descendant Self Sword did not disappoint him.
After flying around in the air, the Descendant Self Sword returned to Chu Kuangren, who looked carefully at the brand new Descendant Self Sword that was not much different from the previous one.
They were both gorgeous, exquisite, and had white-jaded sword bodies. However, because of the addition of Dao Proclamation Seals, there were more mysterious lines on the new one that made it look mystical.
âGreat.â
âSince you have a new sword body, a new look. I shall give you a new name. From now on, youâll be called Dao Proclamation Descendant Self Sword!
âWith you, Iâll show everyone my supreme cultivation techniques!â Chu Kuangren chuckled.
The sword body trembled as if it was responding to Chu Kuangren. On the sword handle, five small words appeared⦠Dao Proclamation Descendant Self Sword!
Following that, Chu Kuangren wanted to try out Thousand Illusory Steelâs properties. As he injected his Immortalâs Core into the sword body and mobilized his thoughts, the Dao Proclamation Descendant Self Sword suddenly began to stretch its body and turn into a five-meter jade-like spear.
Chu Kuangren waved the spear, and his Immortalâs Core activated. Then, as his thoughts flowed, the spear transformed into a⦠bow!
In his hand, the Dao Proclamation Descendant Self Sword was like a piece of ever-changing plasticine that changed its shape at will.
It could transform into a saber, bow, spear, hammer, ax, and other forms of weapon. It could even turn into ornaments such as a fan, a jade talisman, a belt, and many more, as Chu Kuangren wished.
When a few masters, who rushed over to congratulate Chu Kuangren, saw the scene, their eyes widened in surprise.
âWhat weapon is this?â
