152: First practice a set of flying swords for fun

Lin Feng took a deep breath, suppressing his thoughts.

“System backpack…”

His mind sank into it, his Divine Sense surging in like a tide.

For him, those conditions, so harsh they were almost impossible, indeed held a glimmer of hope.

“Out!”

As he let out a low shout, in the verdant grassland of his Inner Universe, brilliant lights flashed continuously.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

One after another, small mountains piled high with various Heaven And Earth Treasure appeared out of thin air, surrounding him in the center.

For a moment, precious light shot to the sky, and Spiritual Qi surged, almost turning into a tangible dense fog.

On his left side, there were mountains of metal Ore.

There was the 【Star Iron】, dark in color but heavier than a mountain.

There was the 【Sun Gold Essence】, as brilliant as the morning sun, radiating scorching heat.

And there were blocks of 【Wind Pattern Secret Silver】, covered with natural cloud patterns, as if sealing wind and thunder.

The Metal-attribute Materials were diverse in kind and even more exaggerated in quantity.

On his right side, there were Fire-attribute Spiritual Materials.

The 【Earth Core Fire Jade】, burning with an eternal flame, and the 【Blaze Crystal Stone】, emitting a sulfurous scent, each contained explosive energy.

The Wood and Earth-attribute Spiritual Objects were slightly fewer in number, but each also formed a small hill, brimming with Spiritual Qi.

Only the corner representing the Water-attribute seemed a bit meager.

Aside from a few pieces of 【Profound Nether Stone】 emitting a chilling aura, there were only some bottles and jars containing various spiritual liquids he had accumulated over the years.

“So few Water-attribute solid Spiritual Materials?”

Lin Feng frowned.

To refine a Flying Sword, one couldn't simply pour liquid; the Water-attribute supreme treasure needed had to be a solid capable of supporting the sword body and perfectly fusing with the Materials of the other four elements.

He reached out, and a palm-sized, entirely inky black scale, yet with a lustrous, moist sheen, appeared in his palm.

【Ink Qilin Scale】.

A pure to the extreme Water-attribute Spiritual Qi rushed at him, as if he held a vast ocean.

Lin Feng could feel that the Law power contained within this scale was of such a high grade that it was even comparable to his top-tier Metal and Fire Spiritual Materials.

“This thing is quite good.”

He murmured to himself.

“But… there’s only one piece.”

Over so many years, the System Mall had only ever refreshed this one piece, which he had kept as a treasure.

To refine thirty-six heavy swords, each needing to integrate a Water-attribute supreme treasure, he would need at least a hundred pieces.

“Could it be… I have to go to the Spirit Realm and catch one?”

A thought suddenly popped into his mind.

Go to the Spirit Realm, find an Ink Qilin, and keep it in his own Inner Universe, plucking scales from it daily.

Then he would have the Materials!

But then, he calmed down again.

He felt the spiritual power within his body, just a step away from the Nascent Soul Middle Stage, and silently calculated.

“With my current strength, in this Human Realm, I can indeed be considered unrivaled.”

With the Five Divine Thunders, Asura Sacred Flame, Spirit Descent Talisman, plus an endless array of other methods, even if all Soul Transformation Cultivators in the Human Realm came out, he would have nothing to fear.

“But if I go to the Spirit Realm…”

There, Void Refining Cultivators were everywhere, and only Body Integration Cultivators could make a stir.

Any random Void Refining Cultivator could crush his current self in a few moves.

Even with the 【Blood Rebirth Talisman】 as a last resort, he didn't want to experience that feeling of powerlessness.

“Forget it, no need to rush.”

Lin Feng exhaled a mouthful of turbid Qi, carefully putting away the precious scale again.

“Old Devil Han lived for over ten thousand years before Ascending to the Immortal Realm; I am not even a hundred years old yet.”

“I have plenty of time.”

He made up his mind.

Within a hundred years, he had absolute certainty of achieving a Breakthrough to Soul Transformation.

By then, relying on cross-realm teleportation to make an early trip to the Spirit Realm and capture an Ink Qilin to raise as a pet would not be impossible.

“You have to eat one bite at a time, and walk one step at a time.”

His gaze swept over the dozens of treasure mountains before him, and the gloom in his heart was swept away.

“The matter of the Lifebound Treasure can be put aside for now, but I can’t always be empty-handed.”

Which man doesn't have a dream of being a Sword Cultivator who can control a sword for thousands of miles and roam between heaven and earth?

Lin Feng was no exception.

“I’ll just use these Materials to refine a set of Flying Swords for fun first.”

His gaze lingered on the various Materials.

He merely glanced at the pile of Golden Lightning Bamboo and then shook his head.

“Too brittle.”

He didn't like illusory sword light or sword shadow splitting.

What he wanted was the power of the sword itself.

It was the sharpness that could cut through anything!

It was the sturdiness that could destroy everything!

Finally, his gaze settled on the tallest and most dazzling metal mountain.

At the top of the mountains of 【Star Iron】 and 【Sun Gold Essence】, quietly lay a half-body sized, dark golden metal block with a smooth, mirror-like surface.

【geng metal】.

Recognized as the “Sharp Metal Treasure” in the Cultivation world, it was extremely rare.

Ordinary Magic Treasure only needed a fingernail-sized piece to instantly become incomparably sharp and indestructible.

And this piece before him was as large as half an adult.

“To refine an entire set of Flying Swords using pure geng metal…”

Extravagant!

Too extravagant!

If external Nascent Soul Sword Cultivators knew about this, they would probably beat their chests and curse him for wasting Heaven And Earth Treasure.

“It’s decided!”

A glint of excitement flashed in Lin Feng’s eyes.

With a wave of his sleeve, all Materials except the geng metal were reabsorbed into his System space.

On the empty grassland, only he and the dark golden metal block remained.

He sat cross-legged, his expression becoming solemn.

“Rise!”

He pointed two fingers, and a golden flame rose from his fingertip, instantly expanding into a huge fireball that completely enveloped the geng metal.

Lin Feng refined the Asura Sacred Flame at will, extracting the pure flame 【Asura True Flame】 after removing its destructive power.

This fire did not win by temperature but was specifically used to melt various metal Spiritual Materials, having the effect of turning decay into magic.

However, the geng metal, enveloped by the True Flame, remained unchanged.

It floated quietly in the center of the flame, and not even a trace of red light appeared on its dark golden surface.

Lin Feng was not surprised.

This was geng metal, the hardest and sharpest substance between heaven and earth.

If it were an ordinary Nascent Soul Cultivator facing such a large piece, let alone melting it, they probably couldn't even leave a scratch on it.

He took a deep breath, and the spiritual power within his body was no longer held back, surging into the golden flame like a river breaking its banks.

Buzz—

The color of the 【geng metal True Flame】 began to change from pure gold to a deeper, darker golden hue.

The volume of the flame did not increase; instead, it slightly contracted, and its light became more restrained.

But the surrounding space began to groan under the strain, and tiny spatial cracks appeared and disappeared around the flame.

Finally, a faint, almost imperceptible blush appeared on the surface of the geng metal.

It worked!

Lin Feng's spirits lifted, and he formed hand Seals, more focused on channeling his spiritual power.

And the Inner Universe also autonomously restored Lin Feng's spiritual power.
