Is it wrong to want to marry a weapon?

Could this magical weapon be the Storm Sword from before?

That low-grade wind-elemental Storm Sword has actually been reforged into something like this...

Seriously?! Even low-grade spiritual artifacts can be transformed into sacred artifacts?!?

Princess Zijing's lifestyle is far too extravagant...

The most shocked to see Liu Xianming being blasted away were the instructors of Thousand Prisons Fire City. They had been watching Liu Xianming for a long time and were very clear about her strength!

The instructor leading the team said incredulously, "A sacred artifact that has been reforged from a low-grade spiritual weapon actually sent Liu Xianming flying...?"

"No, Liu Xianming was probably just careless, right?"

However, even so.

The giant sword in Princess Zijing's hand, which resembled a demon god, and its incredibly terrifying appearance still left them somewhat bewildered.

It's hard to imagine what kind of magical artifact's remnants Princess Zijing used to re-quench and recreate such a thing.

"Huh~~~~~~"

After the sword strike.

Lu Chan slowly opened her pale purple eyes, parted her cherry lips, and exhaled a breath of purple mist.

Then, I started timing in my mind:

One second, two seconds, three seconds.

Every time Sleeping Beauty is drawn, she will fall into a deep sleep for thirty seconds, and can only be awakened by activating the sword counterattack again.

Lu Chan knew that the previous attack had not caused Liu Xianming a fatal injury, so she bent down slightly again and began to gather her strength.

"Wow!!"

In that instant, a dazzling stream of fire burst forth from the crack, and butterfly-shaped eyes, like amethyst crystals, gradually spread across Sleeping Beauty's entire body.

The area within a radius of several tens of meters centered on Lu Chan was completely enveloped by the dreamlike purple flames, as if one had entered a distorted fairy tale world.

[Spiritual Skill - Power Accumulation in Dreams]

One second, two seconds, three seconds...

five seconds...

Taking advantage of the moment when Liu Xianming was knocked away, Lu Chan charged up his power for five seconds in one breath.

As the charging time increased, the space around Lu Chan became more and more distorted, and the purple flames became more and more dreamlike, filled with ultimate beauty.

soon……

Then they heard footsteps coming from the forest not far ahead.

Using the trees as cover, Liu Xianming swooped down and bounced back, returning to Lu Chan's sight in just a few seconds.

Upon seeing this, the female host, Tang Xiaocao, couldn't help but scream, "Ah!! It's contestant Liu Xianming! She hasn't fallen yet!"

"I was really scared just now, I thought the match was about to end right away!!"

Seeing this, the weapon refiners of Thousand Prisons Fire City breathed a sigh of relief.

Liu Xianming's Taoist robe was tattered and covered in dust, but he seemed to be in no serious condition.

The mentor from Thousand Prisons Fire City analyzed softly, "Princess Zijing probably saw through Liu Xianming's abilities. She wants to use her strongest burst of power to finish Liu Xianming off in the first clash, right?"

"It seems that as long as she can get through the next few blows, she won't be able to withstand the power of the Emperor's Puzzle."

"So, Liu Xianming... you need to interrupt her power-gathering first!" the instructor from Thousand Prisons Fire City said anxiously, almost wishing he could directly transmit his voice to Liu Xianming!

Liu Xianming had just returned and had no idea how many seconds Princess Zijing had secretly spent gathering her strength.

But the audience is different.

This is very abnormal!!

Princess Zijing's charged spirit skill has actually lasted for more than ten seconds!!

Ordinary charged spirit techniques can only last for four or five seconds, and only by charging ten times can they last for ten seconds.

And at this moment...

Liu Xianming's expression also turned slightly unpleasant. Under the caress of her fingertips, a noticeable crack appeared on the long staff in her hand.

This is a puzzle piece for emperors...

Because Liu Xianming blocked it with his hand, no one could see it.

Princess Zijing's strike just now caused her much greater damage than anyone had anticipated.

Fortunately, the second strike was about to begin.

Liu Xianming took a deep breath, and then... Boom!!! From the fiery red crown on her head, three pillars of fire, like magma, suddenly spewed out, turning into meteors of magma in the void and splashing towards Lu Chan.

Liu Xianming burst into motion, rushing towards Lu Chan at an extremely fast speed.

This time, during the swing of the bat...

Just in case, and to avoid triggering Lu Chan's sword counterattack again, Liu Xianming mixed countless feints into the shadow of his staff.

But... Lu Chan merely glanced at her with his pale purple eyes, then suddenly leaped into the air, transforming into a streak of purple light and flashing away.

【Charging Up in a Dream: Sleeping Beauty can move, block, and exit the dream at any time to stop charging up while charging up. During the charging process, her agility and movement speed are greatly increased.】

Unless there are special circumstances or an attack that cannot be dealt with, Lu Chan does not want to stop charging up.

"what!!!"

"This guy!?"

Upon seeing Lu Chan suddenly dodge aside, Liu Xianming's golden eyes widened slightly in surprise.

Isn't she gathering her strength?

Why did you suddenly dodge?

Wait, isn't this skill supposed to be charged up ten times or something? How can you move while charging?

Could this be some kind of mutated spiritual technique?

Another point is that the charging time is a bit too long, isn't it?

A sense of foreboding arose in Liu Xianming's heart. She stomped on the ground... Boom! In an instant, golden flames scorched the ground within a hundred meters into a charred wasteland. She also transformed into a dazzling golden light and chased straight after it.

At the same time, the crimson crown of fire above her head continued to spew out meteor showers, and gradually, the earth cracked open, bursting forth with pillars of red magma.

In addition, Liu Xianming unleashed a furious sweep of his long staff, which was wreathed in golden flames.

She unleashed her strongest triple attack in an instant!

"..."

Under the bombardment of flames.

Lu Chan's petite figure also dodged quickly, dragging Sleeping Beauty along as she gathered her strength, while flitting about like a dancing purple butterfly... like flashes of light.

Golden flames and purple flashes intertwined countless times; wherever the two passed, patches of land were ripped up by the explosive flames and burned into nothingness.

Seeing this, countless viewers in the Northern Holy State held their breath in awe.

So fast……

They couldn't see Princess Zijing and Liu Xianming's movement speed at all; they could only vaguely see two afterimages.

"Swish swish"

Bathed in the purple light, Lu Chan dodged the attacks with a calm and collected demeanor, silently counting in his mind.

Charge for thirteen seconds, fourteen seconds, fifteen seconds...

Unfortunately, there were less than ten seconds left before Sleeping Beauty fell asleep again.

First of all, the cooldown time of [Stance - Feigned Sleep] is very short, and apart from needing to time it perfectly and having a relatively small attack range, it has no major drawbacks.

However… after Lu Chan tested it, he discovered that the [Negative Talent - Sleepwalking] has a cooldown period!!

This means that Sleeping Beauty will inevitably enter a forced sleep every thirty seconds after being unsheathed.

Forced return to the scabbard.

Within those thirty seconds...

No matter how many times I use the Feign Sleep technique, I can't refresh the cooldown time of Sleeping Beauty's Unsheathed skill.

In other words, Sleeping Beauty can only be awakened again by using the [Stance - Feign Sleep] when she is asleep.

However, this exaggeratedly negative talent brought about... an incredibly terrifying performance boost for Sleeping Beauty!!

[Charge, 20 seconds]

After charging for twenty seconds.

The aura emanating from the "Sleeping Beauty" sword has also entered a new phase.

The dreamlike flames had almost completely enveloped Lu Chan's body, and as the cracks on the Sleeping Beauty sword continued to widen, pale purple pupils almost filled the entire blade.

Her crimson crescent-shaped sword guard also transformed into two blood-red butterfly wings.

At this moment, Sleeping Beauty's body erupted with dazzling amethyst flames.

This exquisite beauty has surpassed the limits of what people can comprehend!

The instructor from Thousand Prisons Fire City felt a chill run down his spine and said in a deep voice, "Liu Xianming, you must interrupt her power-gathering!!"

Even though Liu Xianming couldn't hear his mentor's voice, he knew this in his heart.

She slowly stopped her attack, and then... she concentrated all her spiritual energy on the fiery red crown above her head.

The next second, nine giant hands made of magma slowly rose from her crown.

Each giant hand held a golden staff made of golden flames, and each staff had the exact same shape as the staff in Liu Xianming's hand.

This weapon is modeled after the Element Puzzle: Overlord Flame.

An incomparably terrifying force descended simultaneously, like a demon god, with nine golden staffs blocking all of Lu Chan's evasive routes.

At the same time, Liu Xianming spread his legs wide and raised his golden staff in his right hand, making a throwing motion.

"boom!!!!!!"

The ground beneath her feet instantly turned into scorched earth.

The long staff in her hand transformed into a golden bow, which she hurled with force.

[Superior Spiritual Skill - Sun Piercing]

The long staff unleashed a golden sea of ​​fire, hurtling straight toward Lu Chan.

Seeing this, Lu Chan's pale purple eyes narrowed slightly, and she said with a hint of displeasure, "This child is really persistent."

[Cancel charging]

[Gathering strength in a dream, then interrupted]

The brilliant flames on Sleeping Beauty's body disappeared.

However, before Liu Xianming could even feel a surge of joy, the next second... a purple flame unlike the previous one, but a ball of purple ice crystals radiating a chilling aura, once again entangled Sleeping Beauty.

Purple streams burst forth from the cracks, spreading across the entire sword blade. Then, the purple streams were all frozen into dazzling purple ice.

Lu Chan's white hair and eyebrows were also covered with a layer of ice and snow.

This is not a buildup of strength.

Instead, it directly enchants the talent "Enter the Dream" with the aura of the River of Oblivion!

[Talent - Power Accumulation, changed to a toggle type talent: Dream Enter, activating Dream Enter allows you to directly enchant Sleeping Beauty with the power of the River of Oblivion based on the amount of spiritual energy consumed.]

Seemingly to distinguish between "Charging Power in a Dream" and "Entering a Dream," Sleeping Beauty will burst into purple flames when using "Charging Power in a Dream."

When the switch is turned on and the enchantment is activated, Sleeping Beauty will unleash purple ice.

Lu Chan dragged a purple, icy sword and slashed it down on the golden staff with a clang!

boom! ! ! ! !
