After going into the sea, I met Miss Witch

Chapter 348: Fragments of Secret Art - [Sword Refining]

In the room.

Ryan looked at the fragment of the sword tablet in his hand that had been nurtured.

——

[Fragment of the Nameless Sword Tablet (Large)]: Long ago, a powerful person named "￥% # (garbled)" used the sword in his hand to carve a stone tablet, on which a shocking sword technique was recorded.

Unfortunately, over the long time, the sword tablet has experienced several destructions brought by the change of eras and has become incomplete.

Your "transcendent" sword intention impacted this sword tablet. After nurturing, although you cannot repair the complete sword technique engraved on it, you can get a fragment of the secret art - [Sword Refining].

——

[Sword Refining]:

Special skill.

Select a sword weapon (long sword, great sword, giant sword, etc.), refine it into your true spirit, and become the sword of the true spirit. After that, you can refine all the sword weapons you have obtained into the sword of the true spirit to improve its quality. In this way, the level of sword weapons can break through the "limit".

——

Looking at the special skills recorded in the panel in front of him, Ryan's eyes showed a thoughtful look.

At first glance, this special skill called [Sword Refining] is an ability to help weapons improve their quality.

But this thing was born from the [Nameless Sword Monument]. After thinking about it, Ryan immediately knew the beauty of this special skill.

After the swordsmanship reaches the "transcendence" realm, it can no longer see where the direction of progress is.

In this case, why not think from another angle and let the sword lead people to break through?

The grade of weapons is similar to the rank of extraordinary people. If the sword in the hand breaks through the ninth rank and reaches the level of "spiritual artifact", can it reversely drive the breakthrough of the realm of the sword holder?

You know, the spirit god represents rules and authority.

And the spirit artifact itself is the embodiment of rules and authority.

By comprehending the sword of the spirit artifact, it is indeed a feasible way to comprehend the rules of swordsmanship from another way.

Originally, the difficulty of this path was where to find the sword-like spiritual artifact, but now, the emergence of [Sword Refining] has solved this problem.

Since you can't find it, just forge one yourself.

When the sword of the true spiritual artifact is forged, it will be the day when the sword technique breaks through "transcendence".

But this will give rise to a problem.

When the breakthrough day comes, will it be the person holding the sword, or the sword holding the person?

This involves different choices on the sword path.

People holding swords are called "Sword Sect".

And letting the sword hold people is called "Sword Demon".

Ryan pondered.

In any case, [Sword Refining] is beneficial to him.

Even if he doesn't break through in this way, it is also a great thing to forge a "spiritual artifact sword" of his own.

With this in mind, Ryan immediately selected his main battle sword, [Great Sword·Rusted Steel Fire Transmission], as his "True Spirit Sword".

The process of using [Sword Refining] is quite wonderful.

It was as if he was watching the greatsword merge into his body from a third-person perspective, and then a sledgehammer smashed down, merging a part of his true spirit into the greatsword in a unique way.

His vision suddenly returned to normal.

At this moment, the rusty greatsword in Ryan's hand had dissipated.

But he knew that he could take out the greatsword at any time as long as he wanted.

"With the [Sword Refining Technique], I can use the [First Furnace] to forge a large number of sword weapons in the world of the gods and refine them repeatedly."

"In this way, the quality of the sword of the true spirit will definitely be improved to a very high level."

"But..."

"You can only go to one world every day when you travel. If you go to the world of the gods, you can't go to other worlds."

Ryan hesitated.

If it was before, he would not do this, but now, the main world is being invaded by the abyss, and any wrong decision will lead to unknown consequences.

After pondering for a moment, Ryan's eyes condensed and he made a decision.

"Let's go to the world of gods."

"First, see how the people in the world of gods are doing now after the abyss is driven out. Second, forge weapons. Third, you can take the opportunity to find the 'anchor point' of the world of gods."

Although Ryan has become the "peak" in both the world of gods and the world of ancient gods, he has not obtained the "anchor point".

This thing is more mysterious and does not necessarily lie in the body of the strongest person in the world.

After making the decision, Ryan settled down.

He looked at the eldest princess not far behind him and said: "Send the garrison of the empire to patrol the border. In the early stage of the abyss, the intensity will not be too great. At least, the ninth-level existence will not come immediately. There is a golden sect blocking the way, so there is room for buffering. Don't be careless. Once discovered, notify me immediately."

"I understand." The eldest princess nodded vigorously, and then turned around and issued an order.

Ryan continued to stand where he was, looking at the golden tree that had turned into the abyss, his eyes narrowed slightly: "It's almost there, it's almost there..."

...

Time passed quickly.

Just as Ryan expected, the abyss had arrived, but its influence had spread to the four empires in less than a day.

It was midnight, and Ryan left behind a powerful servant and prepared to enter the travel area.

This all-powerful servant was weaker than the one that followed the two girls, which was also the disadvantage of the [Powerful Servant] skill.

It was not that it could only materialize one servant, but the more servants there were, the faster the strength would decay.

However, this second powerful servant is enough to deal with the possible initial invasion of the abyss.

Lying down on the raft, Ryan closed his eyes.

Travel, start!

...

The misty clouds floated around the Wind God Tower.

Compared with the gray fog that was once as thick as haze, the gray white fog faded, and it really began to have a bit of divine atmosphere.

Walking on the steps of the high tower carved by time and history, Ryan came all the way to the top of the tower.

Stopped in front of the blurred face of the Wind God statue.

But this time, there was no "Wind God" who looked like a teenager to greet him warmly.

With the complete death of the Mother of Heaven, the God of Wind, as a remnant of the Mother of Heaven's true spirit, also disappeared.

"If there is an afterlife, I hope you will be happy all your life."

For the whole world of creatures to persist until hope comes, she deserves this blessing.

Just as Ryan was about to turn around and leave.

Not far away, the teleportation array behind the statue of the God of Wind began to emit a faint light.

Then, a middle-aged man wearing a divine crown and three pairs of gorgeous ice wings spread out behind him walked out.

Seeing Ryan, he bowed deeply: "God, meet Lord Tianjian."

The Lord of Ice?

Looking at the guy who appeared, Ryan was slightly stunned.

"You have withdrawn from the Dead Silence Continent? What's the situation with this 'Heavenly Sword'?"

The Lord of Ice said respectfully: "Yes, sir."

"Because of you, the entrance to the abyss was completely closed. Without the replenishment of the power of the abyss, the strength of those abyss monsters has been greatly reduced. After we eliminated most of the monsters, we left some people to continue the cleanup, and the rest of the gods returned to the main continent to start reconstruction."

"Although the abyss invasion on the main continent is far less serious than that on the Dead Silence Continent, it will not be completed overnight if we want to recover."

"As for the 'Heavenly Sword'... Before the Mother of Heaven left, her voice appeared in our minds, telling us about your help to this world. We don't know your real name, because you use a great sword, I dared to take the title of 'Heavenly Sword'."

"If you don't like it, I will inform the gods and re-..."

"Forget it." Ryan waved his hands quickly.

Heavenly Sword, Father of Heaven, Mother of Heaven

He was given a title beginning with "天", which shows that the gods respected him and regarded him as the same level as the father and mother of heaven.

As for renaming?

Although Tianjian is not very nice, it is better than making another weird title.

So be it.

Ryan looked at the Lord of Ice in front of him and said, "You should also be able to use the [First Furnace], right?"

"Yes, sir." The Lord of Ice answered respectfully.

"That's perfect." Ryan nodded: "You come to help me start the furnace, I need to smelt a batch of weapons myself."

The Lord of Ice did not hesitate, and immediately came to the side of the [First Furnace] that Ryan took out, and the divine power in his body was activated, connecting the lines on the furnace wall.

Ryan took out a lot of materials and souls.

The materials came from the powerful special species in the Monster Hunter world, especially the five forbidden species in the past, and the souls were the remains of the demon king he killed in the Dead Silence Continent.

An hour later, the face of the Ice Lord began to turn pale.

Three hours later, the body of the Ice Lord began to tremble.

Five hours later, the Ice Lord was kneeling beside the first furnace, and his hands pressed against the furnace wall were shaking constantly.

Fortunately, after five hours of smelting, Ryan's last piece of equipment was also smelted.

"Thank you for your hard work."

Ryan looked at the Ice Lord on the side, took out a portion of [Secondary Gold Droplet], and flicked it into the latter's mouth.

The source was replenished, the soul was nourished, and the face of the Ice Lord suddenly looked much better.

After he stood up, he bowed slightly: "It is my honor to serve you. If you need, I can continue at any time."

Ryan nodded, and then turned his eyes to the equipment he had smelted.

A total of five swords of different shapes were suspended in the air.

Each of these five swords is of no less quality than the Lord God level, and is no worse than the current rusty sword.

After all, the materials used to forge the rusty sword are far inferior to this time.

As Ryan raised his hand, the five great swords flew up one by one, and when they approached his palm, they quickly shrank and merged into his body.

Looking inward, the Sword of the True Spirit shone brightly after being refined by five main god-level great swords.

A huge hammer emerged and fell with a bang.

In the exploding sparks, the Sword of the True Spirit changed subtly.

Its appearance and color did not change much, except that five diamond-shaped dots of different colors appeared on the sword.

Ryan looked at the introduction on the panel.

——

[Great Sword·Rusted Steel First Fire]: It was originally only a true artifact. After fusing a variety of [Chaos] ancient dragon materials and the chaotic souls of the Abyss Demon Kings, it was "refined in the furnace" and transformed into a "supreme artifact".

The roar of the ancient dragons and the hatred of the Abyss Demon King were entangled on the sword.

The rusty sword body that was tempered to the ultimate artifact has a toughness comparable to the "Unfallen World". Under the heavy sword blade of the continent is the surging power of ancient dragons and the abyss. Every slash, in addition to physical damage, will also cause intense soul burning and freezing compound damage - the flames ignited by the hopes of all living beings can burn the enemy to ashes, and the extreme cold precipitated by ancient dragons and the devil will cause the enemy to fall into frost purgatory.

Any weapon or protective gear with a quality lower than that of a supreme artifact will be irreversibly damaged in a collision with this greatsword. Weapons or protective gear of the supreme artifact level will also be worn out in a collision with this greatsword. When the wear accumulates to a certain extent, it will directly break its material.

Attached special miracle: [True First Fire] - After using this miracle, you will enter the "True First Fire State", and your vitality, physique, and spirituality will increase by 100%.

Attached to the secret of the supreme artifact sword soul: [First Blessing] - A special refining method makes this supreme artifact no longer have a sword soul that can be manifested and assist in combat. Instead, it is hidden in the sword body, eternal blessing, and the toughness and sharpness of the weapon will be improved depending on the holder's [True Spirituality], [True Physique] and swordsmanship realm.

Inlay skills: [Fatal Strike lv.1], [Flaw lv.1]

[This item contains "super-extreme" essence of spirituality, which can improve the rank of [Nameless Ship Sculpture] after absorption. ]

——

Looking at the brand-new introduction of "Sword of True Spirit", Ryan's mouth showed satisfaction.

After being promoted to the ninth-level artifact, the sharpness and toughness of [Great Sword·Rusted Steel First Fire] have been greatly improved.

The accompanying skills have evolved from [Real Remnant Fire] to [Real First Fire], and the temporary blessing of vitality, physique, and spirituality has doubled directly to 100%.

And the sword soul secret, the blessing of the great sword, has also added a swordsmanship realm from the original [Real Spirituality] and [Real Physique].

It can be said that if the current great sword collides with the untransformed one, it can be cut off directly in less than three strokes.

What is more likely to happen is that the durability of one sword returns to zero, and the second sword is directly shattered.

The improvement of the main weapon made Ryan's combat power soar again.

If he fights the old man, the Lord of Dreams, again, he doesn't need to enter the complete dragon state. With this big sword, he will be able to make him scream and beg for mercy.

With satisfaction, Ryan retracted his gaze and looked at the Lord of Ice.

"Have you found any strange places after returning to the main continent?"

"Anchor points" are usually very special places.

The Dead Silence Continent is not big. Ryan has visited all of them and found no trace of "anchor points".

The area of ​​the main continent is much larger.

What he experienced in the past was just a corner of the continent.

It is a waste of time to search all over the continent with his own strength.

There are many gods such as the Lord of Ice, distributed all over the main continent. If there are any special and abnormal phenomena, they are often the first to discover them.

The Lord of Ice did not dare to neglect Ryan's question. He thought about it seriously and his eyes lit up: "If you want to talk about strange things, there are really two places."

"Oh. Tell me in detail." Ryan's eyes lit up and asked.
