Chapter 314 - Spirit Saber Refinement
“Bang!”
Su Zimo arrived at the center of the spectator area and retrieved his Weapon Tripod from his storage bag, slamming it heavily on the ground with a loud thud.
At that moment, it was not only Tao Feng and everyone from True Fire Sect; the hundred thousand odd cultivators in the square and the thousand odd Golden Cores at the spectator area… everyone’s gazes were fixed on Su Zimo!
The immensity of that pressure was something ordinary people could not understand at all.
In the eyes of everyone present, be it whether or not Su Zimo had what it takes, he was way too young. If his mental state and willpower were not resolute enough and he showed any signs of fear, he would definitely be faced with huge problems in his weapon refinement process!
With an indifferent expression, Su Zimo gathered a scarlet flame on his palm and began warming the tripod.
After the tripod warming, he retrieved pieces of spirit components that emitted strong spirit qi from his storage bag, tossing them into the Weapon Tripod.
“Heavens, that’s the Violet Feather Rock!”
A thin layer of sweat filled Su Zimo’s forehead.
With so many spirit components combined, the difficulty of tempering had increased immensely for him as well.
After tempering came the most crucial aspect of weapon refinement – spirit gathering!
Sima Zhi could clearly feel Sima Zhi and everyone else from True Fire Sect tense up, watching him intently.
“Fu…”
He chuckled softly and said, “You want to see my spirit gathering technique? Alright, I’ll let you guys see it clearly!”
Right after, in front of everyone, Su Zimo suddenly did something.
He removed his Weapon Tripod!
Everyone from Ethereal Peak had already expected it and were relatively calm. However, the other cultivators were horrified.
It was especially so for the Golden Cores who were closest to Su Zimo as they were rattled and wanted to retreat instinctively.
However, they realized that they were behaving in an unsightly manner and gave fake coughs while calming themselves down.
Without any protection, Su Zimo began spirit gathering!
Even the emperor frowned when he saw that, not understanding what was the purpose behind Su Zimo’s actions.
The risk of removing the Weapon Tripod for spirit gathering was way too great!
If the first spirit pattern failed, it would be equivalent to the explosion of a pseudo spirit weapon and the lethality would be limited.
However, if he were to fail at the fourth spirit pattern, it would be equivalent to the explosion of a superior-grade spirit weapon and the impact would be rather terrifying. Even if it was a Golden Core refining the weapon, he would be severely injured given that he would be unprepared to defend!
Ji Yaoxue frowned slightly and pursed her cherry lips tightly, concern evident in her eyes.
“Sister, don’t worry. He’s Mr. Mo, he’ll definitely be fine!”
Right then, Demoness Ji closed in and held Ji Yaoxue’s slightly cold hands while comforting her with a smile.
Ji Yaoxue forced a smile but the worry in her eyes did not lessen one bit.
Whoosh!
Right then, a glow lit up.
The first spirit pattern was condensed successfully!
Su Zimo did not pause and continued to condense the second spirit pattern.
Everyone held their breath and continued watching.
After a while, another light flashed.
The second spirit pattern was condensed successfully!
Gasps could be heard from the crowd.
Ji Yaoxue’s palms were filled with sweat.
Even though Su Zimo had managed two successive spirit patterns, she was even more nervous now.
Prior to this, if Su Zimo failed in spirit gathering, he would only lose face. However, if he were to fail later on, what he would lose would be his life!
Ji Yaoxue would rather Su Zimo fail his first two spirit patterns than let him get injured.
Unfortunately, it was already too late.
Su Zimo was already condensing his third spirit pattern.
