Legend of the Transcendent

Chapter 66: Mantra and True Qi

The benefit of a high-grade Qi Refining pill is that it emits as much Spiritual Qi as you need, maintaining a steady output without releasing all of the Spiritual Qi at once, ensuring a continuous supply of Spiritual Qi and Mi Xiaojing's True Qi.

Three Thunder Spirit Patterns flickered and were quickly activated, gradually connecting with each other to form a whole.

The only thing that puzzled Mi Xiaojing was that, due to sufficient True Qi, the Spirit Script did not enter the sword body. In other words, unlike the Thunder Strike Dagger, which had only one Thunder Spirit Pattern, the Mantra Banner output a large number of Spirit Scripts unexpectedly due to a lack of True Qi at the time, completing the Refining Tool.

After consuming two high-grade Qi Refining pills in a row, all three Thunder Spirit Patterns were fully activated and combined. Mi Xiaojing's True Qi was only a little bit left. He took a deep breath, thinking that he would need at least three high-grade Qi Refining pills, but two were enough.

Compared to the middle-grade, the difference between the two was really significant, and Mi Xiaojing now had a clear understanding.

The Magical Sword slowly floated up, and the last step was completed. There was already an indistinct connection between Mi Xiaojing and the Magical Sword. He knew that because he had refined the sword, there was a natural connection between them, like his own child, with a natural sense of closeness. As long as he held it for a long time, the two would become more and more in sync.

Of course, if this Magical Sword were to be used by someone else, the person who obtained it would have to spend a considerable amount of time and effort to achieve this level.

This was the benefit of refining one's own tools.

When the light dissipated, Mi Xiaojing carefully observed the Magical Sword made of Xuanjinmu. The originally shiny golden sword turned silver-white after being activated by the Thunder Spirit Patterns, with occasional faint golden light, like waves spreading from the hilt to the tip of the sword.

The suspended Magical Tool was incredibly gorgeous, with silver light mixed with golden light. However, Mi Xiaojing did not like this kind of sword. He preferred the dim and lightless Thunder Strike Dagger.

Unfortunately, the Thunder Strike Wood he obtained was not enough to refine a Magical Sword. It was too short and too small, completely inadequate for his arrangement, resulting in only one Thunder Spirit Pattern being laid out. The Magical Sword made of Xuanjinmu had three Thunder Spirit Patterns and eighteen Thunder Spirit Patterns combined, making it much more powerful than the Thunder Strike Dagger.

.

But the Thunder Strike Dagger was empowered by Spirit Scripts, and the two were incomparable. Perhaps the Thunder Strike Dagger empowered by Spirit Scripts was not inferior to this Magical Sword.

Wang Weijun appeared in Mi Xiaojing's mind: "This time, did you refine it?"

"Yes, it was quite difficult to refine. What do you think?"

"Not very good!"

Wang Weijun began to critique, pointing out numerous flaws in each step from preparing the sword blank to engraving the Thunder Spirit Patterns, from embedding the gold thread to the timing of the Magical Techniques and Incantations.

Mi Xiaojing was also stunned. He thought his Refining Tool was already pretty good, but he didn't know there were so many problems.

In fact, Wang Weijun was truly lamenting in his heart. This child was simply a genius and a monster. He had not failed even once in his first attempt at refining tools, and each time was better than the last. It was truly unfair. In his day, refining tools was not like this. He had failed countless times and accumulated countless experiences to reach his current level.

And Wang Weijun had to establish an authoritative image in front of Mi Xiaojing, so he had to find fault and make him acknowledge it. This was to establish that as long as he spoke, Mi Xiaojing would agree.Mi Xiaojing concentrated his mind and carefully pondered. He found that Wang Weijun was right; indeed, there were many places where he had not done well.

After carefully summarizing and sorting out his thoughts, Mi Xiaojing couldn't help but shake his head. There were too many places where he was not meticulous enough. However, he had confidence that he would do better next time. He still had two more opportunities to refine tools, and then he would truly refine his own magical weapon, which would be a magical sword made from Thunder Gang wood.

However, the failure of the Mantra Script to appear this time left Mi Xiaojing feeling a bit depressed. Instinctively, he felt that if the Mantra Script had appeared, its power would have been different.

Wang Weijun said a lot and then disappeared. Now, he could only rely on his patience to slowly coax Mi Xiaojing, and during this process, he had to provide a lot of real materials to make the little guy believe in him. This was his real goal, and he would not be stingy with his knowledge and experience, giving his best guidance.

The magical sword made of Xuanjin wood, after everyone's discussion, was named the Thunder Light Sword. The reason for this name was that during the sword testing, it could emit a dazzling silver light and even make the sound of thunder.

Mi Xiaojing immersed himself in refining tools. Apart from occasionally going to the Pill Room for alchemy, completing tasks, and cultivating, he spent all his other time refining tools.

During this period, Mi Xiaojing asked Wang Weijun for the Five Elements Spirit Patterns, namely Fire Spirit Pattern, Water Spirit Pattern, Wood Spirit Pattern, Earth Spirit Pattern, and Gold Spirit Pattern. These were the most orthodox Five Elements Spirit Patterns, unlike the Thunder Spirit Pattern, Wind Spirit Pattern, Shell Metal Spirit Pattern, and Immortal Language Spirit Pattern, which were relatively rare and not well-known to cultivators.

Special Spirit Patterns were rare and unusual. Relatively speaking, Thunder Spirit Pattern and Wind Spirit Pattern were still quite common, while the others were almost legendary.

Spirit Patterns were a must-learn knowledge for refining tools, and they were also essential knowledge for formations and talismans. Every cultivator had to learn about Spirit Patterns. If they didn't know this, they would not be proficient in refining tools, formations, or talismans, and they would only be able to use them without understanding the principles behind them.

After spending a few more days, Mi Xiaojing refined a magical sword using Laotie wood, but it still lacked the blessing of the Mantra Script. After repeated thinking, Mi Xiaojing understood that only when his strength was insufficient would the Mantra Script possibly bless him. He then tested it again, this time using the last Xuanjin wood.

After this period of thinking and refining, Mi Xiaojing managed to arrange nine Thunder Spirit Patterns on the Xuanjin wood, totaling twenty-seven Thunder Spirit Patterns, forming three Spirit Patterns. This was nine more Thunder Spirit Patterns than when he refined the Thunder Light Sword.

When he finally activated the Spirit Patterns, he deliberately made his true energy insufficient. Under normal circumstances, once the true energy was insufficient, the Spirit Patterns would not be fully stimulated, and the entire refining process would be considered a failure. Not only would the Spirit Patterns be destroyed, but the sword body would also turn into ashes.

However, Mi Xiaojing succeeded. When his true energy was insufficient, the Mantra Banner once again surged with a large number of Mantra Scripts, directly stimulating the Spirit Patterns thoroughly and imprinting the Mantra Scripts on them.

Finally successful, Mi Xiaojing was overjoyed. He knew the power of the Mantra Script. With the blessing of the Mantra Script, the power of the magical sword was truly different. He understood this in his heart and planned to develop the use of the Mantra Script in the magical sword. Currently, he could not truly exert the power of the Mantra.

Mi Xiaojing began to ponder how to refine the Thunder Gang wood. If this refining was successful, he would obtain his own true weapon.
