150: Thousand Flame Blade

Xiao Weiqing climbed onto the jade platform with a hint of excitement and a trace of trepidation.

He walked straight to the top layer.

A glowing sphere with a diameter of three feet was floating quietly.

Xiao Weiqing glanced at Qingfeng but received no response.

He tried to touch it; it felt slightly warm, so he slowly inserted his fingers into it.

Suddenly.

It seemed he touched something, and Xiao Weiqing grabbed it.

"Hmm?"

"I can't take it out?"

Xiao Weiqing tried hard to pull the object inside out, but found it impossible.

"Boom!"

In an instant.

Xiao Weiqing entered his Flame True Body form, wanting to forcibly suppress the thing inside.

However, he didn't expect.

The light sphere flashed with divine light.

"Bang!"

Xiao Weiqing was sent flying, fell off the jade platform, and collapsed in front of Qingfeng.

"Kid, what are you doing? I told you to try, you can't force it."

Xiao Weiqing said irritably, "How was I supposed to know it had such a bad temper."

As soon as he finished speaking.

That light sphere floated down from the jade platform and came before Xiao Weiqing.

"It's over, it's over, it is angry."

Qingfeng was terrified and retreated repeatedly, keeping his distance from Xiao Weiqing.

Cold sweat broke out on Xiao Weiqing's forehead.

"Don't scare me."

Just as the light sphere reached him, it unleashed a bright divine light, and Xiao Weiqing instantly lost control of his body.

Before his eyes, it was all white; he could only vaguely see a war blade—no, many of them, countless of them.

The next moment.

The divine light dissipated.

The light sphere flew back to the jade platform, as if nothing had happened.

Qingfeng frowned and asked, "Have you accepted the Inheritance Assessment of other gods?"

"How did you know?"

"It told me, saying you have the mark of other gods on you."

Xiao Weiqing was stunned, "God's mark?"

"Don't be nervous. A god's mark is a type of identity mark. Cultivating a god's Divine Soul Cultivation Technique or Innate Skill will grant you one. Some people even have marks from several gods. You need to know that a god's items are not easy to obtain. Once it's discovered you've learned one without a god's mark, it will only lead to disaster."

Xiao Weiqing breathed a sigh of relief; it seemed like a form of authorization.

"Then what should I do now?"

"It says you haven't undergone the Second Awakening, your divine charm power is insufficient, and you cannot control it."

"You can come back after your Second Awakening; then we'll see what you're capable of."

Xiao Weiqing said urgently, "But I won't be able to get in then."

This Civilization Ruins could only be entered by those who awakened that year; he couldn't live forever or become young again.

Qingfeng smiled and said, "It just gave you the god's mark of the god Yun Chen. In the future, after you awaken and the ruins open again, you can just come straight in."

"So that's how it is." Xiao Weiqing immediately felt at ease.

Qingfeng said, "Then it's decided. Let's go."

"Go? Go where?"

"Out, of course."

"I haven't chosen my treasure yet."

Qingfeng: "?"

"Didn't you..."

Xiao Weiqing said, "Didn't I what? Do I have anything in my hands?"

"You... I..."

"You aren't trying to embezzle my companion weapon, are you? You can't be like that as a person, right?"

Qingfeng said irritably, "I am not a person, I am just an Artificial Intelligence."

"Then I don't care. I have to pick another companion weapon; I can't leave empty-handed."

Xiao Weiqing lifted his foot, ready to get back on the jade platform.

"No way. The Wanyuan Civilization Ruins have been on your Blue Star for a hundred years, and I've never met anyone like you."

"That's because you haven't stayed long enough. You'll get used to it later."

"No means no."

Qingfeng flashed in front of Xiao Weiqing to block him.

Xiao Weiqing asked, "Then let me ask you, did I succeed in challenging the golden-armored warrior?"

"Yes."

"Am I the one with the shortest time to succeed in the challenge?"

"Yes."

"I should get a reward, right?"

"Yes."

"Did I get a treasure?"

"No."

"Then can I go pick one now?"

"Fine!"

Xiao Weiqing bypassed Qingfeng and climbed onto the jade platform again.

Qingfeng recovered and exclaimed, "You... you... rascal!!!"

Xiao Weiqing ignored Qingfeng and climbed the platform quickly.

On the platform, Xiao Weiqing jumped around, touching all the light spheres, but none of them gave him the same feeling as the companion divine weapon of the god Yun Chen.

"Hmph, the strength of these companion weapons' owners was at most the Ninth Realm during their lifetime, not gods, so they don't have a god's mark." Qingfeng's words seemed to carry some sarcasm.

"I see. What a pity."

Xiao Weiqing dismissed the thoughts he shouldn't have had.

Subsequently.

Xiao Weiqing walked to the first layer, reached into a fiery red light sphere, and pulled out a blade.

It wasn't that he didn't want the divine weapons of Eighth Realm or Ninth Realm Powerhouses, but mainly because he couldn't take those weapons out. He didn't know if it was because his strength was insufficient or if the attributes were incompatible.

thousand flame blade.

The style of this blade was somewhat similar to Xiao Weiqing's original Red Dragon, but it couldn't be compared to Red Dragon at all.

The thousand flame blade was a companion divine weapon of a Seventh Realm Expert. It was said to have absorbed the energy of a thousand different exotic flames and was incredibly powerful, but the blade was dim and lusterless.

"Daoist, this is a bit average, it doesn't look like the saber of a Seventh Realm Expert."

This thousand flame blade was indeed not an ordinary item; it looked much better than elemental weapons, but it was far from the level of a divine weapon. It felt about the same as the weapons of Lü Heguang and Luo Dechang.

"What are you thinking about?"

"A companion weapon shares glory and loss with its host. After the original owner falls, if they are willing to leave the companion weapon behind, the companion weapon will return to its initial state, and the new owner needs to re-nurture it."

"Even if I really gave you the saber of a Seventh Realm Expert, could you use it? Could you even lift it? The aura of the divine weapon alone would crush you to death."

"Hmph!"

Xiao Weiqing smiled sheepishly, "I guess that's true."

"Then what should I do now?"

"Use your Mental Energy—or more accurately, your Divine Soul power—to imprint your own mental mark. With your current strength, it will take time, at least half a year, and at most an unpredictable amount. Then you can store it in your Dantian to nurture it."

"This is just like other..."

Before he finished speaking.

The thousand flame blade in Xiao Weiqing's hand flashed with red light and disappeared.

Subsequently.

It appeared in Xiao Weiqing's hand again.

Back and forth several times, Xiao Weiqing played with it happily, "Interesting."

"You... this... how is this possible?"

Qingfeng's eyes widened in shock.

"What exactly is this kid's background? He imprinted a non-original companion weapon with his own mental mark in an instant."

After a long while.

Qingfeng's eyes flickered, "Xiao Weiqing, I really look forward to your next visit."

Xiao Weiqing said happily, "I look forward to it too."

"Let's go. The others have finished as well. The assessment of this Wanyuan Civilization Ruins ends here."

The two left the place.

Outside, nine people were already waiting. Seeing Qingfeng and Xiao Weiqing come out.

They hurriedly asked, "Daoist, may I ask what our passing time was?"

Qingfeng said, "This batch of examinees is very surprising; not a single one failed."

"Two people passed the copper-armored warrior challenge. Ruan Dong, you succeeded first. Elemental weapon or Innate Skill, which one do you choose?"

Ruan Dong didn't hesitate, "Daoist, I choose Innate Skill."

"Good."

"Just enter that door again."

"Xie Sheng, you go in too. The remaining elemental weapons are yours."

The two entered the door of the challenge room.

Qingfeng continued, "All four silver-armored challengers succeeded. Yun Xi had the shortest time, followed by Fu Xiaoling."

Hearing this.

Xia Mo's expression darkened, and Taniguchi Takuo's face was gloomy.

"The final golden-armored warriors, all four also succeeded."

"Among them, Chu Xu's challenge time was 4 minutes; Dongfang Xuan and Ye Tianming were both 2 minutes."

All three felt a bad premonition upon hearing this.

"Then what about Xiao Weiqing?"

Qingfeng smiled, "Under 1 minute."

"Impossible!"

"I don't believe it!"

Ye Tianming's face was ferocious as he roared, "He only has a Level 5 Extraordinary Talent. How could he possibly defeat the golden-armored warrior faster than me?"

"I opened two Dantians and possess a companion weapon, and it only barely took me 2 minutes to defeat the golden-armored warrior. You say he defeated it in 1 minute? Absolutely impossible."

"I want to see his challenge record."
