Is it wrong to want to marry a weapon?

Just then, a surprised voice came from beside Lu Chan: "What amazing spiritual energy!! No wonder everyone is so eager to enter the Dragon Palace, it really lived up to my expectations!"

A beautiful young woman with long orange hair stood up, brushed the frost off her body, and wore a golden fire robe, exuding an extremely gorgeous aura.

She said happily, "My mentor promised that after I cultivate diligently here for a few years and become qualified to become the city lord of Thousand Prisons Fire City, I won't have to work hard anymore."

"No, if I really become the city lord, then even if my mentor wanted to control me, he wouldn't be able to, right?"

"Very good, it's decided then!"

Just as the girl was talking to herself.

Lu Chan suddenly said, seemingly out of place, "If your mentor heard you say that, he'd be overjoyed."

"what……"

"It's Princess Zijing! You scared me to death!!"

Liu Xianming turned around, still somewhat shaken, and saw the stunningly beautiful girl with long, white-purple hair.

The spiritual energy within the Dragon Palace was so intense that their perception of the surrounding spiritual energy was greatly reduced.

Liu Xianming blinked: "Princess Zijing, I didn't expect we'd be grouped together. What a coincidence!"

So, since it's a group of three...

There should be one more person who was teleported with them, right?

As Liu Xianming looked around, he saw the girl with long, curly, light green hair who had just woken up from her slumber.

Xiao Hanye stood up, looking pleased, and said, "Lu Chan!? My luck is really that good..."

None of the previous batch of weapon refiners came out alive.

The Dragon Palace today is different from what it used to be.

When they entered the Dragon Palace, they had already made ample mental preparations; now, just seeing Lu Chan's figure, Xiao Hanye's wary mood immediately calmed down.

The two have known each other for a long time.

From the moment Zijingyuan was defeated in the simulated battle, to the moment the two of them entered the March Peach Sword Pavilion together, Xiao Hanye knew in his heart that this woman... had never been defeated.

No matter how much stronger she becomes, Lu Chan is still an unattainable figure for her.

"It's Xiao Hanye..."

Seeing Lu Chan's calm reaction, Xiao Hanye said with feigned resentment, "What, are you disappointed that it's not Miss Nan He standing next to you?"

"How could that be?" Lu Chan chuckled. "You're getting better and better at talking. By the way, what are your plans?"

Xiao Hanye thought for a moment before replying, "Having finally entered the Dragon Palace, of course I want to start cultivating immediately... However, since none of the previous batch of weapon refiners left the Dragon Palace, it means that some kind of dramatic change must have occurred within the Dragon Palace."

"To go into seclusion without knowing the situation could very well lead to a crisis; therefore, I suggest we act together first and search the vicinity for a while to see if there are any weapon refiners trapped here."

Liu Xianming nodded: "I don't really care what happens to me, as long as you two weapon refiners from the Three Moon Peach Sword Pavilion don't bully me together."

Lu Chan gazed at the waning, crystal-like moon in the sky, suppressed the tremor in his heart, and said softly, "Then let's leave it at that for now."

If she could, she would be eager to go directly to the core area of ​​the Dragon Palace.

Unfortunately, as a demigod-level weapon refiner in his previous life, Lu Chan knew very well just how astonishing a spiritual forbidden zone composed of demigod artifacts would be.

Even with her current abilities, she isn't entirely confident.

In short, it's best to become a true super-level weapon refiner first before trying to explore other areas of the Dragon Palace.

at the same time.

It was dozens of miles away from Lu Chan and the others.

A mature, older-sister-like spirit weapon with long, wavy golden hair looked at the two people in front of her and said with a charming smile, "Who are you two? Please state your names first."

"Your Highness Sand Ant, I am the second seat holder of Thousand Hellfire City. You can just call me Little Flame."

"I am the first seat in Azure Courtyard"

They were still very respectful towards this super-grade spiritual artifact, which surpassed all other spiritual artifacts in the Northern Sacred Continent and was on par with the palace masters of the nine holy lands.

She is the strongest guardian artifact within the Night-Shining Pearl Spirit Forbidden Zone!!

Sand ants

The sand ant gently advised, "Meeting is fate. Your cultivation levels are far too low. Don't venture into the Dragon Palace rashly before you reach the Super-Rank. I will explore this area first. You can focus on your secluded cultivation. If there is any danger... I will do my best to resolve it."

"Really!? Thank you for your kindness, Prince Sand Ant!"

The two weapon refiners were immediately overjoyed.

I've heard that the guardian artifact of the Night-Shining Pearl is the gentlest artifact among the five forbidden zones, and it has connections with many top-tier artifact refiners from holy lands. Seeing it today, it is indeed extraordinary!

Sand Ant waved his hand: "No need to thank me for such a small thing. I watched this year's Holy Land Competition, and you are all very promising weapon refiners. Your future achievements will probably be no less than mine. What is this little investment?"

"Hehe, I'll go find you a suitable place to cultivate in seclusion right away."

As soon as she finished speaking, Yi Yi turned around and headed towards the end of the passage.

But at this moment...

Her golden eyes suddenly shrank to pinhole size.

What……?

When did that guy get there?!

The next second, the weapon refiners of Thousand Prisons Fire City and Azure Courtyard were also stunned and looked at the figure with long dark blue hair hundreds of meters away.

Under their gaze...

A woman with long, flowing blue hair was sitting cross-legged atop an ice-blue stone pillar, observing them with a curious expression.

This person was wearing a martial robe with ice-blue patterns, and a blue, tooth-shaped spiritual embryo was imprinted on his forehead.

A magical artifact...?

Her entire body was covered in dark blue barbs, much like shark fins, which spread from her back to her limbs.

On its head, there is a trident-shaped fish fin crown.

The strangest thing is that although this magical artifact did not release any spiritual energy, the aura it unintentionally leaked was extremely violent!

This guy is very strong...

The sand ant's previously nonchalant expression suddenly turned serious.

She frowned and asked solemnly, "May I ask who you are? I have never heard of you in the Northern Sacred Continent. Could it be that you are a spiritual artifact born from the Dragon Palace?"

The blue-haired girl didn't answer the sand ant's question. Instead, she propped her cheek up with her small hand, tilted her head, and grinned, revealing her little tiger teeth. "It seems those guys were right... Today really is the day the Dragon Palace opens!"

"One top-grade weapon refiner, two high-level weapon refiners...?"

"Haha, they're much weaker than the group of guys we encountered not long ago?"

The blue-haired girl arrogantly shouted, "Hey, hey, hey, let me tell you, if you're a weapon refiner, then come with me obediently; you're a spirit weapon, right? Then get out of the way and don't get in my way!"

"..."

"What did you say?" Upon hearing this, the three people's expressions changed slightly.

Judging from this person's tone, could it be that... the previous group of weapon refiners also encountered this thing?

Just recently!?

Being looked down upon like this by a fellow spiritual artifact, even the Sand Ant, with her good temper, was instantly amused and exasperated.

She smoothed her long, golden, wavy hair and said coldly, "Very well, to encounter someone like you so soon after entering the Dragon Palace, I'd also like to see how the spiritual artifacts derived from the Dragon Palace differ from mine..."

"We don't yet know what this guy's purpose is in taking you away, so you should step back for now!"

"Once I've dealt with her, I can force her to reveal what happened inside the Dragon Palace."

As soon as he finished speaking, a golden longsword materialized in the sand ant's hand.

The next second, her figure vanished from the spot like sandstorm.

Flying was impossible inside the Dragon Palace, but in just a few breaths, she had already rushed to the front of the blue-haired spirit... Clang! With an astonishing burst of sword light, she swept her sword horizontally with both hands, unleashing a golden shockwave that slammed into the blue-haired girl's neck.

"..."

"..."

"How can it be……?"

Under the incredulous gaze of the sand ants and two weapon refiners.

The golden longsword in Sand Ant's hand was held above the woman's head as if nothing had happened, without even breaking a layer of her skin!

The second seat of Thousand Prisons Fire City said incredulously, "Princess Sand Ant is the strongest guardian spirit artifact of the Night-Shining Pearl. Even in the entire Northern Sacred Continent, her strength is enough to rank among the top three spirit artifacts."

"Am I hallucinating?!"

The most horrified person at the moment is, of course, the sand ant itself.

As Sand Ant closely observed the calm expression on the blue-haired girl's face, a myriad of thoughts raced through his mind.

I clearly felt like I hit her...

But how could things have turned out this way?

Could it be that this guy has some kind of magical skill that allows him to instantly enter an invincible state or weaken his own attack power?

Under the trembling gaze of the sand ants, the blue-haired spirit casually scratched his slightly itchy neck and said helplessly:

"Oh no... I don't think I've shown any aggression towards you, have I? If you insist on targeting me, I might kill you, and then the adults will probably scold me again."

"Hmm, that's not bad. If you were to convert that to the level of a weapon refiner, you should have the strength of a fourth-level refiner... or even the peak of the fourth-level refinement, right?"

"never mind……"

"Anyway, the adults don't need any more magical artifacts."

After saying this, the blue-haired spirit suddenly widened its eyes and revealed a slightly manic smile: "I'll just secretly kill you then."

"Shameless talk!"

Sand Ant snorted coldly, pulled his hands back, and swung his sword out again.

This time, she gathered a large amount of spiritual energy within her body, and the golden light formed a fan-shaped sword aura that was almost a hundred meters long, which she swung out at her opponent in a terrifying manner.

Just as the sword light was about to reach the enemy...

The blue-haired girl clenched her fist and, with a speed that no one could react to, quickly tapped the sand ant's head with the back of her hand.

boom! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! !

In an instant...

With a deafening sonic boom, the sand ant was sent flying backward in an instant.

A gigantic mushroom cloud shot into the sky like a nuclear explosion... and the deep blue ripples that spread out raged out, instantly leveling the surrounding area for miles!

"What the hell!?"

"what happened!!!"

Dozens of miles away:

Feeling the ground shaking beneath his feet, Xiao Hanye, who was running, lost his balance and accidentally fell onto Lu Chan.

The three of them looked at the location where the spiritual energy had erupted.

Not far away, a blue sun seemed to rise, with blue ripples spreading out in concentric circles, blowing up the three women's long hair and skirts at the same time.

"What an astonishing aura!!!"

"Is this water-based spiritual energy!?"
