Chapter 316 - Born from Blood
Five spirit patterns, it was a perfect spirit weapon!
A bedazzling light burst out in front of Su Zimo, spreading across the square like a magnificent dawn.
Pausing for a brief moment, the light retracted swiftly and entered the blade!
No one spoke. It was pitch silent both in the square and at the spectator area.
Everyone’s eyes were drawn to the gigantic spirit saber that was floating in midair and their mouths were agape in shock.
No matter how illogical the spirit saber seemed with its clumsy appearance and its handle, it was a perfect-graded spirit weapon after all!
Even Golden Cores who had lived for hundreds of years might not even be able to see a perfect spirit weapon being born by the end of their lives.
How lucky was it for them to be able to witness it personally right now?
Upon seeing that, everyone knew that Su Zimo had not prepared those items in advance and could not help but sigh.
A perfect spirit weapon was about to be born before their eyes, only to fail at the final step.
“Ugh!”
Xuan Yi clutched his wrist and let out a long sigh with a pained expression.
Ji Yaoxue looked at Su Zimo who was silent and felt her heart wrench. She quickly turned her head and shouted, “Father, help him…”
The emperor said in a deep voice, “Ming Ze, head to the palace’s treasury. There should be Zenith Spring Water in it.”
“It’s too late!”
Sima Zhi pointed at the spirit saber in Su Zimo’s hand and sneered, “In five breaths’ time, if there is no quenching item, that saber will be wasted!”
Everyone focused their attention – the spirit patterns were already showing signs of dissipating on that fiery red saber.
It was clearly too late to retrieve the Zenith Spring Water at this point!
“Su Zimo, you’re still too naive. Fufufufu.”
Sima Zhi laughed.
He was delighted because with this failure, the light of providence on Su Zimo would disintegrate and it would be difficult for him to refine another perfect spirit weapon ever again!
This failure would not only waste a saber, but destroy a monstrous Weapon Refinement Master as well!
Ji Yaoxue stood up, prepared to head forward to comfort Su Zimo.
Right then, Su Zimo narrowed his gaze and a strange glint flickered in his eyes. Gripping the saber in his hands, he held it horizontally across his chest with its blade facing down.
Su Zimo stretched out his palm and the saber’s blade landed on it, slashing across slowly and forcefully.
Since he did not have any Northern Frost Ice, Deep Seat Fiend Oil or Zenith Spring Water, he would use his blood to quench the spirit saber!
Sima Zhi gave a disdainful stifled laughter. “What a fool. How can your blood compare to Zenith…”
His eyes widened in disbelief as he could not continue anymore.
How could that be? Su Zimo’s bloodline…
Poof!
Blood gushed from the cut and spilled onto the scarlet blade.
Shing!
A piercing sound could be heard as thick smoke rose from the saber!
The temperature of the saber dipped rapidly and the spirit pattern that was about to dissipate stabilized, becoming one with the blade!
Furthermore, the five spirit patterns were even devouring Su Zimo’s blood!
Even though the temperature of the saber had dropped, the color of the blade was gradually deepening. It changed from the scarlet shade of flames to a grisly shade of blood!
Sixth step, quenching… success.
Clang! Clang!
The blade trembled and produced an intense clanging sound – it was filled with a strong smell of blood that made one uneasy.
Su Zimo caressed the blade gently, muttering softly, “Since you were quenched using my blood… you shall be called Blood Quencher from now on.”
As though it was sentient, the blade went silent.
A perfect spirit weapon that was born from blood!
