Proving one's path through killing—this kind of merit is poisonous!

Chapter 40 Brand
Arriving at the door of the alchemy room, Gu Jinhe cautiously peeked in, but before she could find Xu Lingyu, she heard her voice coming from inside.

"Look at you, sneaking around like that. Just say what you want to say."

Knowing she had been discovered, Gu Jinhe walked into the alchemy room, stood up straight, and said, "Senior Sister, I have to leave the sect for a few days, so I won't be able to help with the fire for the next few days."

"Leaving?" Xu Lingyu stopped what she was doing, as if remembering something, and said, "Is it an outing mission?"

"Senior Sister knows?"

"Of course, this stuff isn't just available in the errand department; it's also available in the outer and inner departments, the only difference being the difficulty of the tasks."

At this point, Xu Lingyu took out a porcelain bottle from her storage bag and handed it to Gu Jinhe, saying, "I can't help you either, so please take these Restoration Pills!"

The Rejuvenation Pill can restore spiritual power and heal external injuries. It is an essential medicine for cultivators when they travel, and its effects are remarkable.

Knowing it was a good thing, Gu Jinhe didn't refuse. She simply said after taking the porcelain bottle, "Thank you, Senior Sister. I'll make a fire for you when I get back."

Xu Lingyu smiled helplessly: "You'll be gone for at least four or five days. I'm afraid I won't be able to wait for you."

"Why?" Gu Jinhe was taken aback.

"I need to pack up and go back to the inner sect in a couple of days. I'm afraid I won't have a chance to come back to this alchemy room again."

Xu Lingyu seemed to have thought of something and remained silent for a while.

Finally, as if making a decision, he said, "You said before that you were interested in alchemy. If you still have the idea of ​​alchemy after you finish your mission, you can come here and give it a try."

Gu Jinhe moved her lips as if to say something, but in the end she only said, "In that case, thank you very much, Senior Sister!"

As Gu Jinhe left the alchemy room holding the porcelain bottle, she was still somewhat emotional. Taking advantage of the fact that no one was around, she put the porcelain bottle into the system space.

When she got back to her room, the first thing she did was take out the Hidden Peak Sword that she had exchanged.

The sword was silver-white with a hint of green. I felt a stinging pain when I touched the blade with my finger.

Gu Jinhe looked down and realized that her fingertip was cut and there was a faint sign of bleeding.

What a fine sword!
"System, how do I make the Hidden Edge Sword recognize me as its master?"

The Hidden Edge Sword was forged by a weapon refiner using celestial iron, but due to a lack of materials, it has form but no soul. To make it recognize a master, it must first be endowed with a soul.

This is exactly what Lin Tinglan said.

only……

"what should I do?"

The host can first imprint it with their consciousness, which will allow them to use the sword for a short period of time.

There are two ways to imbue a sword with a sword spirit.

One possibility is that the spirit sword will gain intelligence after a thousand years.

The second method involves capturing a powerful soul from their lifetime, refining it, and using it as the sword spirit.

After listening to the system's words, Gu Jinhe realized that the Hidden Edge Sword was in a truly awkward situation.

Disciples of lower cultivation levels cannot form a contract with it, while disciples of higher cultivation levels have better options.

Following the steps instructed by the system, Gu Jinhe imbued the sword with his divine sense, establishing a short-term contract.

Therefore, she can control the sword with her divine sense!

The only downside is that the brand needs to be reinforced every three days, which is troublesome but the best solution at present.

After resolving this matter, Gu Jinhe went to bed to meditate and practice breathing exercises, absorbing the surrounding spiritual energy to break through the barrier of the fourth level of Qi Refining.

……

Qin Shu has been somewhat absent-minded lately.

The female disciple who was traveling with her noticed that Fu Qingxue, who used to always be by her side, had not been seen for several days.

She couldn't help but ask, "Senior sister, why haven't I seen Junior Sister Fu lately?"
