Chapter 189: Qianyang Sword
Everyone was eagerly watching Mi Xiaojing and the others, knowing that the first batch to receive the treasures would undoubtedly get the best ones.
The Azure Descent Immortal Maiden began to call out names for the second batch to enter the treasury. To Mi Xiaojing's surprise, Mo Yuer was among them.
Upon seeing Mi Xiaojing, Mo Yuer smiled and nodded in acknowledgment. She was also quite shocked inside, as Mi Xiaojing had entered the treasury before her, proving that he had gained the unanimous attention of the higher-ups.
The opportunity to enter the treasury was extremely rare. She knew that if it weren't for her father being the Sect Leader of the Heart Sect, she wouldn't have had the qualifications to go in.
Neither of them spoke, as they didn't have much of a relationship, but they were no longer strangers, merely acquaintances.
Yong Ji said, "Let's go back first, they'll have to wait."
Under the envious gazes of the crowd, the two quickly left. Mi Xiaojing was a bit curious, wondering what treasure Yong Ji had chosen.
Back at the Gathering Spring residence, the two went straight to the backyard. Mi Xiaojing asked, "Uncle Yong, what treasure did you choose?"
Yong Ji smiled and pulled out a sword. With a touch of his finger, the sword floated in front of him. He said, "The Qianyang Sword, it's a mid-grade spiritual sword, haha."
Mi Xiaojing was slightly surprised. In the Heart Sect, a mid-grade spiritual sword was definitely a good weapon. However, he was a bit puzzled. Given Yong Ji's status, shouldn't he have had such a weapon long ago? Why did he choose this sword?
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtSeeing Mi Xiaojing's confusion, Yong Ji gave a bitter smile. "My previous sword wasn't even a low-grade spiritual sword, just a top-grade magical artifact." He had originally wanted to nurture it into a low-grade spiritual sword with his Golden Elixir, but despite years of nurturing, he had not succeeded. He later realized that the essence of his magical sword was not enough.
So, without hesitation, Yong Ji chose to exchange for a spiritual sword this time. This was the weapon that suited him best. Unfortunately, he had just obtained it and needed to keep it near his Golden Elixir for a while to gradually combine it with his own true essence before it could become his life sword.
In other words, although the power of this Qianyang spiritual sword was stronger than his previous magical sword, it was not as satisfactory in use. After all, the magical sword was something he had nurtured for a long time and was very handy.
Mi Xiaojing said, "Good sword, good sword!"
Wang Weijun interjected, "Haha, kid, you're cursing!"
Mi Xiaojing was puzzled, "When did I curse?"
"You said he's good for nothing, good for nothing is a scoundrel, hahaha!"
Wang Weijun was so happy that he was dancing with joy. His pleasure was just this pitiful little bit. In the Mantra Banner, he was almost suffocating into a pervert.
"Get lost!"
"Hahaha, I got you!"
One sentence made Wang Weijun lose his composure.
"You, you kid have no sense of humor at all! You're killing me, killing me! Ahhh spit!"
"Alright, alright, what's there to be angry about? I just find it strange, old man, every time you say you're a senior expert in the Cultivation World, but do you look like a senior expert?"
Being despised by the younger generation again, Wang Weijun was so angry that he was puffing up his beard and glaring at the Heart Tower.
Yong Ji was fascinated by the Qianyang spiritual sword. Although he was Yu Hong's direct disciple, he didn't have any special treasures in his hands. This was the downside of being a cultivator in a sect. What good things could one get from relying on the sect?
If you want good treasures, either refine them yourself or go out and find them. Whether it's stealing, robbing, or excavating ancient ruins, these are not things that the sect can provide.
Yong Ji knew that with this sword, if nurtured well, his strength could at least double. This was the power of a good magical treasure.
"By the way, what spiritual sword did you choose?"
Mi Xiaojing couldn't help but smile bitterly. He had directly assumed that he had chosen a spiritual sword. Of course, if it were up to Mi Xiaojing himself, he might have chosen a spiritual sword first. However, with Wang Weijun's help, he chose a talisman instead.
Holding the talisman in his hand, Mi Xiaojing didn't have the ability to make it float.
"This talisman."
"Ah? Are you stupid? Why didn't you choose a spiritual sword? This kind of opportunity, I've only had it once in all my years in the Heart Sect, and there won't be another one in the future. It's such a pity!"
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmWang Weijun was furious in the Heart Tower, "This damn kid, he doesn't know shit! What's the use of a spiritual sword! How outrageous, a guy who doesn't know shit, dares to express his opinion!"
Mi Xiaojing said, "It's pretty."
Yong Ji was completely dumbfounded. This reason was too powerful. Since when did cultivators choose treasures based on their appearance?
"Uncle Yong, don't you think it's beautiful?"
Mi Xiaojing had no choice but to talk nonsense. He couldn't say that he had chosen this because of the guidance of a senior.
Wang Weijun was also stunned. This reason was good, very powerful! He couldn't help but laugh wildly in the Heart Tower, "Haha, good answer, because it's pretty, because it's beautiful, haha, look at that kid, he's dumbfounded!"
Yong Ji pointed at the talisman, his hand shaking with anger. This kind of opportunity was something others couldn't even beg for, and this kid had casually chosen a talisman, "You, you think it's beautiful? Pretty? This is outrageous!"
Mi Xiaojing innocently said, "Uncle Yong, why are you angry?"
Suddenly, Yong Ji came to his senses. He wasn't stupid, he was just stunned by Mi Xiaojing's words. Most cultivators would indeed choose a spiritual sword, but Mi Xiaojing was a Pill Master, his specialty was alchemy, not fighting. Choosing a talisman seemed reasonable.
"Uh, okay, I just think it's a pity. Your choice of a talisman is not bad, I'm not angry."
Once he figured it out, Yong Ji felt that Mi Xiaojing's choice was not bad. A cultivator who focuses on escaping is generally hard to catch unless there is a huge difference in levels, especially those who have escape techniques.
Generally speaking, there are five elements of escape: metal, wood, water, fire, and earth, each with its own escape technique, and there is also a combined five elements escape technique. In addition, there are some special ones, such as lightning escape, plant escape, and wind escape. These escape techniques are not widespread, some cultivation planets are very popular, and some don't even have these techniques.
On the Cangmin Star, very few cultivators knew escape techniques. After reaching the Foundation Establishment stage, they could fly, and the speed was very fast. It was not like escape techniques that had various restrictions. However, escape techniques were generally used in combat, while flying was used for long-distance travel. The two belonged to different categories.Yong Ji didn't pay much attention to the talisman. He said, "I'm going to cultivate the spiritual sword and won't leave the courtyard for now." Having just obtained a good weapon, he was eager to absorb it into his body as soon as possible.
This was also a form of cultivation. It wasn't easy to incorporate a spiritual sword into one's body. Nurturing it with his Golden Elixir and true essence as early as possible was the best course of action.
First, he needed to discard his original Magical Sword, then nurture this new spiritual sword. In fact, he could nurture both swords at the same time, but the effect would definitely not be as good as nurturing just one sword.
