Chapter 611 The Cicada Sheds Its Shell 1
Wei Yunqing felt the long sword in front of her looked familiar, but she couldn't quite place where she had seen it before. She extended her divine sense and scanned the entire sword, asking as she looked:
What is the origin of this knife?

The shopkeeper noticed Wei Yunqing's interest in the knife and immediately explained its origin:
"This knife was brought in for sale by a Foundation Establishment cultivator. He said that his ancestors had produced a Nascent Soul cultivator, but during the great war between good and evil five hundred years ago, his Nascent Soul ancestor perished, and the family went downhill. This knife was his ancestor's natal magic weapon."

He lacked the ability to repair the damaged sword, so he decided to sell it, hoping that someone knowledgeable could restore its brilliance. He sold it to raise enough spirit stones to buy a Golden Core.

The master of the Treasure Pavilion appraised it and said that this knife was indeed a spiritual treasure before, but because its owner died and the knife spirit dissipated, and the long knife itself was also severely damaged, its grade dropped drastically, and now it is just an ordinary magic weapon.

Selling it would definitely not be worth more than a few spirit stones. However, if the materials used to forge this sword could be broken down, it might have some value. Therefore, I decided to put it in the treasure hunt event just to make up the numbers.

If Your Excellency is not satisfied, you may choose another item.

Fearing to anger the Nascent Soul Venerable, the shopkeeper added one last sentence.

Upon hearing this, Wei Yunqing merely blinked and casually waved her hand, saying:
“As I said, I’m just here to join in the fun. This kind of thing hasn’t happened in the Western Regions yet. Besides, you also said that if you break down the materials used to forge this sword, it will have some value. My one high-grade spirit stone was well spent, so there’s no need to replace it.”

Upon hearing Wei Yunqing's words, the shopkeeper's smile widened, and he showered her with compliments before personally escorting her out of the Treasure Pavilion.

Wei Yunqing took the longsword back to her temporary cave dwelling. After setting up the protective barrier, she took the longsword out again, then raised her hand to stroke it and said coldly:

"Dragon Fang! I've recognized you. Stop pretending to be a broken blade!"

He then looked menacingly at the long sword in his hand, but received no response.

Wei Yunqing narrowed his eyes, then raised his hand and released a ball of light, which smashed directly onto the longsword. The dragon carving on the hilt of the longsword made a "crack" sound, and a new crack extended from the previous one, suffering secondary damage.

Upon seeing the new cracks, Wei Yunqing cursed "bad luck" and tried to channel wood elemental energy into the longsword again. He then lightly swung it, but the longsword only managed to chip away at the rocks on the cave wall, and the nick in the blade became even deeper. It had now become just an ordinary longsword.

After several attempts, Wei Yunqing had to admit that the "Dragon Fang" was ruined. She had hoped to turn her life around with it, but she never expected that the "Dragon Fang" would completely lose its spirit. However, she could understand it when she thought about it.

Previously, when she was inside the Mountain and River Scroll, she was also on the side fighting against "Dragon Fang" and evil spirits. Dragon Fang broke the seal, giving them the opportunity to leave the Mountain and River Scroll. However, she also saw very clearly that Wei Yunxi self-destructed her protective immortal artifact in order to prevent "Dragon Fang" from being taken away by evil cultivators from the upper realm.

At the time, she felt sorry for the other person. That was a celestial artifact, which could protect her even if she ascended to the upper realm. But Wei Yunxi did it anyway. She asked herself if she could do it.

She was one of the witnesses to the power of the immortal artifact's self-destruction. Afterwards, "Dragon Fang" was resealed back into the Mountain and River Scroll. Although she missed the great battle in the Central Region due to her seclusion, she had heard a little about the loss of the Mountain and River Scroll.

Judging from the current miserable state of "Dragon Fang," it was clear that it had taken advantage of the battle between good and evil to break the seal and escape once again. Unfortunately, breaking the seal required power, and the final result was that its rank dropped and its spirit dissipated. After holding the longsword in his hand for a while, Wei Yunqing decided to follow the shopkeeper's suggestion to break down the sword's forging materials and then integrate them into his natal magic weapon, "Tianqing Water and Wood Sword."

In her view, "Dragon Fang" was once the weapon of an evil god, so its refining materials must not be ordinary. If it is decomposed and integrated into "Water and Wood Sword", it will definitely be able to raise her natal sword to a higher level.

After making her decision, Wei Yunqing left Qinghua City and prepared to go to the Southern Region's Refining Association to find a high-level refiner to help her. She was well aware of the principle that "a craftsman must first have the right tools if he wants to do his work well." Since she could not compare with Wei Yunxi in terms of cultivation, she would try to obtain a powerful natal magic weapon.

Unseen by Wei Yunqing, a streak of light flashed across the severely damaged longsword, suggesting that the sword spirit had not dissipated as the shopkeeper had claimed. However, Wei Yunqing did not notice this and instead excitedly stepped into the Southern Region's weapon-refining association branch.

Haoran Sect Beehive

Yunxi, who had temporarily taken over the affairs of "Hive", raised an eyebrow and revealed a playful smile after reading the message sent back by Xunkun about Wei Yunqing's whereabouts.

Even without looking at the knife, she felt it wasn't a good thing, and it just so happened to fall into Wei Yunqing's hands. It just didn't seem right.

Wei Yunqing actually had the audacity to seek out a weapon refiner to disassemble the materials used to forge the longsword, and even wanted to integrate them into her own natal sword. I don't know how her thought process works. Was she forcibly "intelligented"? She dares to integrate things of unknown origin into her natal sword.

Yunxi had a faint sneer on her lips. From this, it was clear that the False Heavenly Dao was getting impatient and was even trying to make the most of Wei Yunqing, a pawn. But thinking about it, it made sense. Wei Yunqing was, after all, a Nascent Soul cultivator. He had been fed to this level of cultivation by the False Heavenly Dao, so naturally he had to give back.

After thinking for a moment, Yunxi sent a message to Xunkun, instructing him to continue keeping an eye on Wei Yunqing, especially her whereabouts. She also reminded him that if Wei Yunqing left the Southern Region, he should pay close attention to her itinerary, especially the places she stayed for a long time. She also indicated that there was definitely something wrong with the knife in Wei Yunqing's hand and warned him to be careful.

After receiving Yunxi's reply, Xunkun arranged for a mid-stage Nascent Soul cultivator from the Kunmo Sect to keep an eye on Wei Yunqing and make sure to track all of Wei Yunqing's whereabouts.

Wei Yunqing stayed at the Southern Region's Weapon Forging Association for more than a month, and sought out a fifth-level weapon refiner to break down the materials of the longsword. He then incorporated the most precious "Yin Water Stone" into his "Tianqing Water Wood Sword." The moment his natal sword was fully fused, it was struck by lightning.

After being tempered by five tribulations of lightning, Wei Yunqing's natal sword directly advanced to the next level, becoming a spiritual treasure. This made her extremely happy and even more certain of her original decision.

After receiving his payment, the weapon refiner saw Wei Yunqing off from the Weapon Refiner Association. Once he was gone, the smile on his face vanished, and he sent out a communication talisman. He shook his head and then returned to his weapon refining room.

After receiving the news, Xun Kun sent a message to Yun Xi. He didn't expect Wei Yun Qing to be so lucky that she could improve the grade of her natal sword. You have to know that there are very few spiritual treasures in the Wei Yu Realm.

After receiving the message, Yunxi spoke with the two Nascent Soul cultivators who were assisting her, and then headed straight for the Southern Region, as there were some things she needed to verify in person.
