Starting with Fireflies, Speedrun the World

But in Yun Li's eyes, this was utterly trash, no less than the lowest grade of material.

However, Yun Li soon encountered her first problem: the temperature of the flames was not high enough to melt the broken blades.

Start the fire and increase the temperature!

However, even when Yun Li raised the temperature to its maximum, she still couldn't affect the fragment.

It was just ordinary fire after all...

Could it be that the first sword-making attempt ends here? The materials haven't even melted yet; if word gets out, Grandpa and the others will laugh themselves to death.

After thinking for a few seconds, Yun Li decided to take out a powerful weapon.

A ball of orange flame...

Although this item is only a blue item, it is actually of a higher level than the Broken Blade. In the game, the Broken Blade is only considered a green material, not even as good as a blue one.

In other words, with this point-based card draw, the lowest you can get is a blue item; there's no way around it.

This ball of flame is also related to destruction, and is called Destruction Anomaly.

This is a strange substance that seems to possess destructive power.

It resembles fire but isn't fire; it's neither cold nor hot, but it destroys other matter that comes into contact with it for more than 12 seconds. Therefore, some speculate that it might be the antimatter legion's version of junk, though others are unsure.

All creatures that receive Nanook's direct blessing will have their appearance distorted.

Yun Li carefully added a trace of destructive energy to the flames, and sure enough, the flames worked. The previously unmeltable broken blades began to melt at a visible speed.

Then things became much simpler, and Yun Li began to forge according to the method she remembered...

After an unknown amount of time, Yun Li forged a longsword. Although it was her first time forging one, it looked extremely well-made.

This longsword was incredibly sharp; with a single, effortless swing, it ignited the ground.

"As expected of me, you're really amazing!"

Yun Li stroked the sword she had forged herself. It was merely a "newcomer's" work, yet it was already extraordinary.

It not only retains a trace of the power to destroy destiny, but also possesses extremely high fire energy.

"System, can this sword be added to our collection?"

Yun Li felt that this sword could easily kill even an ordinary person who possessed a protective aura, making it an absolute treasure among treasures in the Dou Huo world.

however……

[Inspection: Unqualified!]

The system's merciless voice rang out, interrupting Yun Li's naive thoughts.

"I see! It seems that the requirements to qualify for collection are much higher than I imagined."

If that's the case, then weapons below the Dou Zun level are probably not worth hunting. But it doesn't matter, it was just a trial run anyway.

After thinking for a moment, Yun Li took out a few more pieces of even better sword-forging materials, and tried to see if she could forge a divine sword that reached the collection threshold.

However, Yun Li was reluctant to use the best purple material, as it was not suitable now and would be a waste.

She only had a little over forty pieces of purple materials from previous draws and the ones she had accumulated from the previous worlds.

After all, the guaranteed reward for a ten-pull is only one purple item, and often it's not materials, but things like Light Cone Relics or Rare Treasures.

Using the destruction of heterogeneous materials for forging is a shortcut that doesn't bring out their true value. You still need to find top-tier heterogeneous fire to forge them properly.

It's even possible that a single strange fire isn't enough; the strange fire must be fused with other things to completely forge those top-tier materials.

……

P.S.: I was warned by Shen He that most of the characters' martial arts techniques will be renamed after this volume.

Chapter 8: Even demons have Yun Li tattooed on their bodies.

"Clang! Clang! Clang clang clang!!"

With each strike of the giant hammer, a brand new sword slowly took shape.

However, this sword was not an ordinary longsword; it was more like a scimitar, emitting an eerie green light.

As the weapon took shape, Yun Li examined it carefully several times before finally placing it aside in some monster oil mixed with some lost light dust.

As soon as the scimitar touched the grease, it instantly burst into flames, as if it would burn the entire place where the sword was forged to ashes.

Even the curved blade had faint, howling phantoms of hungry wolves, which was incredibly frightening.

Only Yun Li remained unmoved, her gaze fixed on the curved blade before her, yet she sensed a hint of dissatisfaction. It hadn't met her expectations…

"Isn't this okay?"

It was clearly about to take shape, but the final step just wouldn't meet the standard.

She not only incorporated the hardest bones and teeth of the demon king and other materials into this weapon, but the main core material was also something from Bu Liren.

Suddenly, Yun Li thought of something...

After the flames subsided, she cut her finger and dripped a few drops of blood onto the blade of her scimitar.

Another terrifying wolf howl and ghostly scream erupted, and the scimitar was completely formed...

To be honest, she didn't originally intend to make the weapon this way, but during the forging process... her forging skills told her that a scimitar was the most suitable form for this weapon.

In order not to destroy the weapon's potential, she had no choice but to forge it in the shape of a scimitar.

It looks very formidable right now, with its dark black blade and swirling eerie green poisonous mist; it's clearly no ordinary weapon.

After thinking for a moment, Yun Li grabbed the newly crafted weapon and instantly sensed that it was extraordinary.

This scimitar has the ability to kill instantly upon drawing blood; even a Dou Zong expert would likely die from its wounds!

If the Dou Zun is not dealt with in time, he will not survive.

More importantly, it does not appear to be the final form of power yet, and it can continue to grow.

However, the way they grow up might be rather brutal...

"As expected of Bu Liren's venomous fangs..."

Yun Li wasn't particularly fond of this scimitar, but its excellence was undeniable...

The core material of this knife is wolfsbane saw teeth, which are also blood-sucking sharp teeth left behind by the Bu Li people during their conquests.

The Bu Li people regarded sharp teeth as the sharp blades of warriors.

A frenzied impulse flows through their veins; catalyzed by wolf venom, they devour and suck blood with unparalleled ferocity.

It hadn't fully taken shape before because it lacked a catalyst to unleash its potential. But Yun Li used her own blood as a medium to fully unleash its inherent ferocity.

This must be an extremely vicious and evil blade...

However, unlike the Demon Sword, it won't bewitch its master.

Only those with weak wills will be affected by its ferocity.

"System, has this knife—no, this sword—met the passing standard?"

After brandishing her scimitar a few times, Yun Li realized that she still preferred Lao Tie a bit more.

Although she is a master at wielding a scimitar and has no problem using it, she still prefers Lao Tie's straightforward approach.

[Tested and approved!]

[Available for collection up to number 1381!]

"...1381?"

Although Yun Li was very happy to have finally met the qualification standard, wasn't the level number 1381 a bit too far back?

The lowest standard is 1382. This top-tier scimitar, which she thought was pretty good, only deserves to be collected as the second to last...

[Reaching the passing grade for the Hidden Sword class is already quite good; if it weren't for its potential for growth, it wouldn't deserve to be collected.]

"Fine!"

Although it didn't meet my expectations, at least I passed.

Moreover, this scimitar did not use any purple-grade materials. It was only passable because of its excellent sword-making skills, right?

"In that case, to which number can these three demonic swords be included in the register?"

After thinking for a moment, Yun Li took out the three demonic swords forged by her father, Han Guang, and asked the system about them. She was a little curious whether they could meet the passing grade.

It should be acceptable. Putting everything else aside... the fact that Suiyang from the Demon Sword alone is worth this achievement.

[Appraisal complete. The three demonic swords can be registered as numbers 1080, 1060, and 780 respectively.]

"So low?"

Yun Li was a little surprised. She thought she could at least make it into the top 300, but she failed to even reach the top 1,000 in two of them.

Only the Demon Sword Flying Shadow reached the number 780.

Both are demonic swords, and both contain the power of the Sun's Light; indeed, Flying Shadow is far more ferocious than them. In my memory, Yun Li also put in a great deal of effort to hunt down this demonic sword back then.

Moreover, it was extremely unruly; even after being taken in, Fei Ying Sui Yang continued to tempt her.

If it weren't for Yun Li's hatred for the Demon Sword, she might have truly been bewitched by it.

Unfortunately, from the very beginning, the moment Yun Li became a sword hunter, she vowed to hunt down all the demonic swords her father had forged and then destroy them all.

No matter how much Suiyang tried to bewitch her, it was useless.

Even now...

When Yun Li took out the Demon Sword Flying Shadow, before the other two Demon Swords could even speak, it began to bewitch Yun Li.

"Don't you want to become the Sword Master of the Immortal Ship? Don't you want to acquire the most powerful martial arts? I can teach you all of these..."

"It's so annoying with all that chattering!"

Before the demon sword could finish speaking, Yun Li frowned and immediately put the three demon swords away. If she had a way to destroy them for the time being, she would have done it already.

There's no way to kill Suiyang...
