Chapter 534: I’m That Idiot
Translator: KurazyTolanzuraytor Editor: Jay
"Third level of the Void Prying Stage!" Duan Ling Tian’s pupils constricted as he looked at the 4,000 ancient mammoth silhouettes above Luo Zhan.
Luo Zhan has actually broken through?
Whoosh!
Subsequently, a strand of red energy appeared in the Origin Energy on the surface of Luo Zhan’s body.
In the sky, another 200 ancient mammoth silhouettes appeared…
It was precisely Luo Zhan’s Elementary Fire Force!
At this moment, Luo Zhan’s figure flashed out like spraying flames that swept towards Duan Ling Tian, and it seemed as if it wanted to burn Duan Ling Tian into ash.
Swoosh!
When Luo Zhan arrived nearby Duan Ling Tian, he abruptly raised his hand.
A spear appeared in his hand, and accompanied by the twining of his raging Origin Energy and Fire Force, the spear was like a flame dragon emerging from its cave as it fiercely flashed towards Duan Ling Tian.
In the sky, another 1,500 ancient mammoth silhouettes appeared.
Obviously, the spear in Luo Zhan’s hand was a grade six spirit spear.
Luo Zhan’s spear strike flashed out, and when it arrived nearby Duan Ling Tian, he shook the body of the spear, causing the tip of the spear to sweep out like rain drops.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
…
The array of stars that covered the sky embellished the sky, and they instantly transformed into numerous shooting stars that swept towards Duan Ling Tian.
Luo Zhan attacked with his full strength, utilizing both spirit weapon and Fire Force.
His strength was comparable to the strength of 5,700 ancient mammoths.
Luo Zhan felt his spirits refreshed when he attacked with full force.
Presently, his body shot out with his spear as the corners of his mouth slightly curled into a smile, and he seemed as if he’s already seen the scene of himself defeating Duan Ling Tian.
"It’s a pretty good spear skill… Unfortunately, it’s too fancy and has scattered a large amount of strength." Right at this moment, Duan Ling Tian spoke.
At the same time that he spoke, the Violet Myrtle Flexible Sword appeared in Duan Ling Tian’s hand.
Origin Energy suffused into it before Half-step Advanced Lightning Force and Half-step Advanced Wind Force fused into the Origin Energy.
In the next moment, Duan Ling Tian’s gaze went slightly cold.
Sword Drawing Arts!
Duan Ling Tian stood on the spot and with a raise of his hand, his hand and the sword in his hand instantly vanished before Luo Zhan’s eyes.
"So swift!" Luo Zhan’s pupils constricted.
It was at this moment that Luo Zhan clearly saw that in the sky above Duan Ling Tian, there actually was…
5,800 ancient mammoth silhouettes!
The strength contained in this sword strike of Duan Ling Tian’s was the strength of 100 ancient mammoths more than the strength of his full force spear strike.
Instantly, Luo Zhan’s pupils constricted and he was slightly bitter in his heart.
Only now did he recall that besides being a genius martial artist with monstrous natural talent in the Martial Dao, Duan Ling Tian was even a grade four Weapons Craftsman with extremely high attainments in the Dao of Weapons Refinement.
Obviously, the sword Duan Ling Tian used now was a grade four spirit sword!
"Presently, Duan Ling Tian’s cultivation is at the second level of the Void Prying Stage, and when not using his grade four spirit sword and Force, he’s able to exert the strength of 3,000 ancient mammoths… Once he utilized Force, he will be able to increase his strength by another strength of 1,000 ancient mammoths!
"In other words, when Duan Ling Tian doesn’t utilize a spirit weapon and utilizes his full strength, he can only exert the strength of 4,000 ancient mammoths! But now…" The corners of Luo Zhan’s mouth started twitched as he looked at the 5,800 ancient mammoth silhouettes in the sky.
The amplification provided by the spirit sword in Duan Ling Tian’s hand was actually the strength of 1,800 ancient mammoths!
"With the strength of 3,000 ancient mammoths as the base, amplifying the strength of 1,800 ancient mammoths… If counted in reverse, Duan Ling Tian’s grade four spirit sword is actually able to amplify strength by 60%?" Luo Zhan was greatly shocked in his heart.
All these thoughts were completed in only an instant.
When Luo Zhan returned to his senses, he had a serious expression.
Origin Energy raged and Fire Force roared on the grade six spirit spear in his hand…
The tip of the spear pierced out swifts as if it had transformed into a meteor shower that covered the sky.
But even then, he still felt slightly lacking in confidence.
Swish!
An ear piercing howl of the sword slices through the sky, drawing out a mark in the air.
Clang! Clang! Clang! Clang! Clang!
…
Everywhere the sword light passed, the ear piercing sound of iron weapons collided ceaselessly resounded out.
It was Duan Ling Tian’s spirit sword that had made a circle in the air, easily stopping the sword lights of Luo Zhan that descended down in tiny spots.
The sword light ceaselessly spun as it passed, and its speed was so swift that it was shocking.
"Duan Ling Tian, take this!" Luo Zhan shouted out explosively when he saw Duan Ling Tian break through his spear skill so easily, and his spear shot out like flames as it fiercely stabbed towards Duan Ling Tian.
Whoosh!
Piercing howls exploded out, and it gave rise to a wave of continuous sounds of air exploding.
"Bring it on!" Duan Ling Tian’s brows raised, and with a raise of his hand, the Violet Myrtle Flexible Sword in his hand abruptly pierced out to intercept the tip of Luo Zhan’s spear.
At the same time, the Origin Energy on Duan Ling Tian’s Violet Myrtle Flexible Sword abruptly started trembling.
Extreme Quake Energy!
Although Quake Energy at the extreme was only comparable to the strength of 100 ancient mammoths.
But under these circumstances, its effect was extremely great.
After all, the strength of Duan Ling Tian’s sword now was stronger by the strength on Luo Zhan’s spear by 100 ancient mammoths.
Even though he’d surely defeat Luo Zhan in a head-on attack, because the difference between his and Luo Zhan’s strength, Duan Ling Tian would surely be injured even if he defeated Luo Zhan.
Now, by utilizing Quake Energy at the extreme, it would be able to help him dampen Luo Zhan’s strength and help him finish the battle between him and Luo Zhan as soon as possible.
Swish!
A sword howl sounded out, and when combined with the Quake Energy at the extreme, it emitted a buzzing sound.
Finally, the sword and spear collided.
The tip of the sword collided with the tip of the spear, emitting a wave of ear piercing noises and brought along a string of sparks at the same time.
Clang!
Duan Ling Tian’s hand shook, causing the Violet Myrtle Flexible Sword to fiercely raise up and hit the body of Luo Zhan’s spear.
Instantly, Luo Zhan face went grim as he hurriedly let go and tossed away the spear in his hand.
At this moment, his own spirit weapon was like a dreadful monster to him.
Whereas the hand Luo Zhan held the spear with had split open and blood dripped down from it.
"What a terrifying method of strength exertion…" When he thought of the scene from before, Luo Zhan had a slight lingering fear in his heart.
Even though Duan Ling Tian’s Origin Energy was stronger than his, it wasn’t much stronger, and he had the strength to fight.
But earlier, the Origin Energy that gushed out from Duan Ling Tian carried along an extremely terrifying force of vibration that directly smashed his Origin Energy.
Not only that, the vibrating force that was carried along by Duan Ling Tian’s Origin Energy was even able to affect the flesh, blood, bones, and internal organs of his entire body.
He was sure that if he didn’t resolutely toss away the grade six spirit spear, the hand which he used to hold the spear would have been crippled.
"Duan Ling Tian, what ability was that?" After he put away his spirit spear, Luo Zhan looked at Duan Ling Tian with a slight lingering fear in his heart.
Duan Ling Tian smiled mysteriously and didn’t answer Luo Zhan, and then walked towards the Inner Hall after he put away the Violet Myrtle Flexible Sword.
Luo Zhan’s gaze became even more complicated as he looked at Duan Ling Tian’s figure that moved into the distance.
After he returned to the Inner Hall, Duan Ling Tian sent a voice transmission to Chi Ming who stood outside the small house.
"Vice Dean Chi, I’ve spoken with that grade four Weapons Craftsman… He can refine a grade four spirit weapon glove for you, moreover, it will be an improvement with your grade six spirit weapon glove as the foundation."
"What materials does he require?" Chi Ming had an excited expression when he heard this.
"The materials for a spirit weapon glove are much more difficult to come by than the materials for a saber or sword type spirit weapon. That Senior said that if you want to advance your grade six spirit glove into a grade four spirit weapon, you must find…" Duan Ling Tian listed out seven types of materials in one go, and he’d intentionally added slightly extra amounts of materials.
Because, he intended to take the opportunity to refine a grade four spirit weapon for himself that could go together with his Tempest Point.
"I’ll gather all the materials as soon as possible." Chi Ming replied with a voice filled with excitement.
Originally, Duan Ling Tian’s estimation was that if Chi Ming wanted to find these materials, he would at least have to spend a few months of time.
One month later.
When Duan Ling Tian saw the seven types of materials within the Spatial Ring that Chi Ming passed to him, Duan Ling Tian couldn’t help but be stunned for a time.
"Vice Dean Chi, where did you find these materials? Three of these seven types of materials are extremely difficult to come by…" Duan Ling Tian looked at Chi Ming with a slightly stiff expression.
Chi Ming said with a smile, "Don’t forget that besides being the Vice Dean of Dragon and Phoenix Academy, I have another identity."
Duan Ling Tian came to a sudden understanding when he heard this.
Besides being the Vice Dean of the academy, Chi Ming was also one of the five great Revered Elders of the Azure Forest Imperial Kingdom’s Imperial Family.
Presumably, he’d used the might of the Imperial Family to find these materials.
Or perhaps, he’d gone through the vault in the Imperial Palace.
"Vice Dean Chi, I’ll leave the academy now and look for that senior to refine the grade four spirit weapon for you!" Duan Ling Tian left after he bid his farewells to Chi Ming.
He naturally didn’t go to see any Senior, but instead directly went to the Weapons Craftsmen Main Guild.
After he ascended to the third floor, he went straight to the point. "I intend to refine another two grade four spirit weapons… Stand aside and observe properly."
Luo Rong’s eyes lit up when he heard this, and he had an excited expression.
I can finally see Master refine grade four spirit weapons again!
In next to no time, Duan Ling Tian withdrew the grade six spirit weapon gloves that Chi Ming gave him.
Duan Ling Tian didn’t go straight to refining, but he instead looked at Luo Rong and asked. "Can you discern what obvious flaws this grade six spirit weapon possesses?"
Luo Rong’s gaze descended onto the gloves in Duan Ling Tian’s hand when he heard this.
Instantly, his pupils imperceptibly constricted.
Duan Ling Tian didn’t notice this scene.
"Luo Rong is slow-witted, please guide me Master." Luo Rong looked respectfully at Duan Ling Tian.
Duan Ling Tian said indifferently, "This grade six spirit weapon glove used materials that are superior and utterly didn’t require too superb skill in weapons refinement to easily bestow it with the ability to amplify strength by 39%.
"But unfortunately, the Weapons Craftsman that refined this spirit weapon glove was truly too stupid! How can that Thousand Year Ice Silkworm’s Silk be covered by Frigid Gold Silk? It’s truly a reckless waste!"
Duan Ling Tian frowned as he said, "So long as the properties of the Thousand Year Ice Silkworm’s Silk in this spirit weapon glove is exposed, it’s extremely easy to amplify strength by 39%!"
"Too stupid! Too stupid! If the Weapons Craftsman that refined this spirit weapon glove was before me, I’ll surely bluntly call him an idiot!" As he finished speaking, Duan Ling Tian ceaselessly shook his head.
"Master…" Meanwhile, Luo Rong looked at Duan Ling Tian and was slightly hesitant to speak.
"Hmm?" Duan Ling Tian was bewildered as he didn’t know what Luo Rong wanted to say.
"Master, I… I’m that idiot," Luo Rong said with a bitter smile.
