Chapter 89: The Second Liberation of the Magic Tool
What are spirit patterns?
Simply put, they are a way to structure spirit energy.
Spirit energy builds up internally, while spirit patterns build up externally.
The major Spiritual Law can amplify strength by tens of times because it sketches special spirit patterns that replace Spiritual Roots to extract the spirit energy of heaven and earth, allowing that energy to transform directly into power through the spirit patterns.
Undoubtedly, the mastery of spirit patterns differentiates noble families from commoners.
Through exchanged knowledge of Weapon Forging, Yun Ye has learned the most basic structure of spirit patterns. The Spiritual Tools he can create are rather crude and, logically, he shouldn’t be able to produce anything particularly powerful.
But does Yun Ye need high precision?
Not at all.
Since he isn’t good at it, he will avoid it and maximize his strengths!
And the Celestial Events is a product of this philosophy.
Previously, Yun Ye thought Celestial Events was already his limit, and it would be impossible to enhance its power in a short time.
But the Spiritual Roots gathered by the Gathering Spiritual Crystal gave Yun Ye a new idea.
Perhaps he could implant the Spiritual Roots into Celestial Events.
Weapon Forging is about combining various materials’ characteristics to create weapons containing ‘Spiritual Law.’
Spiritual Roots, as a collective of spirit, also count as a material.
Moreover, they are a very high-quality material.
Just like how demonic cultivators in cultivation novels often capture mortals for blood sacrifices, the same can be done in this world.
It’s just that mortals are useful because their Spiritual Roots and souls can be seen as a type of material for Weapon Forging.
Weapons made of such materials tend to be filled with vitality and gain a degree of intelligence.
These are generally referred to as: magic tools.
Magic tools that incorporate a cultivator’s own blood and Spiritual Roots are commonly called “fate magic tools.”
The Spirit Gathering Ring is merely the most basic type of magic tool, aside from directly extracting spirit energy of heaven and earth, it has no other functions.
However, in Yun Wen’s hands, the value it can provide goes far beyond just extracting energy.
Yun Ye couldn’t activate magic tools before, but now he can. He has extracted a wealth of knowledge from the black-armored man—it’s truly remarkable how resilient Wood Spiritual Root holders are.
“As long as it’s a magic tool, it possesses a second form.”
“When a magic tool is pushed to its limits and its capabilities are fully understood, it can reveal its second form and gain powers far beyond its normal state.”
“When Yun Wen defeated the Thousand-eyed Demon, the magic tool almost vaporized, transforming into hundreds and thousands of threads.”
“Earlier, I didn’t grasp the principle behind it. Now it seems… is this similar to the revival of Spiritual Roots?”
In other words, it is the result of fully unleashing the power contained within the magic tool.
If an untrained person tries to control this liberation, it can lead to the magic tool shattering, just as humans can exhaust their vitality through excessive revival of Spiritual Roots.
Weapon Forgers may have no limitations, but magic tools are incredibly precious. Can they really be damaged every time they are used?
Additionally, if it weren’t for Yun Wen’s expertise in perfectly unleashing power, the second liberation wouldn’t be this strong; at most, it would only be slightly more powerful than normal, making it hardly worth the cost of using a magic tool.
In such cases, the general approach to Weapon Forging is to prioritize stability before strength.
However, for Yun Ye, the situation is different.
Celestial Events!
It is a one-time weapon!
This is the Revenge Arsenal that Yun Ye specially created, designed for…
A guaranteed one-hit kill!
“Nether Fire!”
A black hole opened, and Yun Ye took out two Celestial Events, bringing the total to three.
He aimed to leave Tong Yuan with no chance of escape!
…
The next day, at noon.
Yun Ye leaned against the treetop, showing a hint of fatigue.
He picked up a Spiritual Herb and brought it to his mouth—
The Spirit Law chains appeared in response.
Compared to yesterday, the Spirit Law chains only had a few scattered parts left; they would likely completely collapse today.
Yun Ye looked toward Zhu Village in the distance and got up to leave.
He had buried all the villagers and confirmed a grim fact: no one in Zhu Village had survived…
Though it was just a short half day of interaction, Yun Ye could feel the kindness of Zhu Village’s people.
They had lived in this Secret Realm for generations, content with their peaceful lives, and the tragic irony is that they even pursued the beauty of the outside world while oblivious to its terrifying darkness.
Their deaths.
The destruction of numerous villages surrounding Baishi Town.
It truly is sorrowful.
And Yun Ye would make sure that the noble families of Baishi Town experienced this sorrow firsthand!
“The Ten Across Mountains, the most dangerous area of the Crescent Moon Secret Realm, can have chaotic-level monsters appear at any time. In the deepest parts, there may even be the Great Disaster that exceeds the Guardian of the Nine Bone Spirit Grass. It is indeed terrifying, but…”
Yun Ye strode toward the Ten Across Mountains without a shred of fear. “This time, Tong Yuan will definitely die; not even Jesus can stop it!”
“I mean it!”
The Ten Across Mountains.
It is indeed very perilous.
Yun Ye had just reached the outskirts when he encountered a high-level monster of chaotic level.
The abundant spirit energy in this Secret Realm greatly enhanced the monster’s combat ability, while Spiritual Law masters struggled…
Though the spirit energy had increased, using more power meant that Spiritual Law masters would die quicker!
The only advantage of this Secret Realm is that Yun Ye’s normal strength is close to the state of revived Spiritual Roots from the outside world.
Generally, high-level monsters wouldn’t need to awaken their Spiritual Roots.
But for chaotic-level ones, it is still necessary to be cautious.
After Yun Ye swiftly slaughtered the chaotic-level monster, he fully stepped into the Ten Across Mountains.
This place was filled with steep peaks, and cliffs loomed everywhere, making it extremely dangerous; ordinary people could hardly pass through.
Even Yun Ye, as a Spiritual Law master, had a tough time moving, needing to stay alert for various monsters while also keeping an eye on Tong Yuan and others.
Though he already knew the location of the Nine Bone Spirit Grass, if they got discovered early, it would be a wasted effort.
For this reason, Yun Ye kept his Eye of Invisible Light activated, even though maintaining it for a long time would inevitably drain his energy; he had to keep it on.
And this caution paid off.
As Yun Ye crossed the narrow space filled with howling winds, he caught a glimpse of the formation marks at the end and a hidden team of members.
Without his Eye of Invisible Light, he would have been completely oblivious, exposed right under their noses.
“How many days do you think it will take to complete the setup?”
“It will be done tomorrow; three days are the absolute limit, otherwise there won’t be enough time left to gather many Spiritual Herbs.”
“With secret blood, it won’t be a problem; it’s enough to deal with most of the guarding monsters, which will greatly speed up the harvesting.”
“How could we use secret blood? It’s likely that only high-level Spiritual Herbs are worth using; Captain Tong Yuan and the others wouldn’t want to waste their strength.”
The three guarding the formation chatted casually.
What they didn’t notice was a silent figure watching them from afar.
“I don’t understand formations at all; entering from here will surely alert these people.”
“There’s no other path through the Cracking Wind Narrow. Unless I force my way against the wind…”
From the name alone, one can tell.
Cracking Wind is a type of spirit wind, not just an ordinary “gale.”
