“This slow effect feels strange!” At this moment, Nalan Hongwu furrowed his brows.
“How do you feel? How is it strange?” Jun Yangzi was the most interested in these items.
“This force exists in my body and spread all over, but I can’t track it down or remove it until it disappears on its own!” Nalan Hongwu said.
“You can’t remove it?” Lan Mo said doubtfully, “You warriors have fewer methods and techniques than us cultivators. Let me try it!”
Instead of cutting himself, he hit his arm with the body of the trident.
He found that the slow effect was released by the head of the trident. If people were touched by this part, they would be affected by this force even if they weren’t wounded by it.
A weird force entered his body!
It felt like an ancient… curse.
Then, he moved his body and instantly found that his body turned slow.
“How do you feel?”
“Very… weird… feeling…” Lan Mo slurred, and he felt like his spiritual essence went parallel with this force, and the former couldn’t touch the latter even though the latter wasn’t strong.
Instantly, an overwhelming surge of spiritual essence rushed out of the core region in his body, and it moved swiftly in his body and sped up his movements!
“Pure Void (Qing Xu) Seal! Break!” A bright light shot out from his eyes while he yelled!
“How about it?” Nalan Hongwu asked.
Lan Mo exhaled a mouthful of turbid air and said, “I can’t remove it properly, and I had to break it with force. This method consumed a lot of energy!”
Nalan Hongwu laughed and said, “Do you know why I chose this thing?”
He pointed at the dark gold trident in Lan Mo’s hand and said, “I can defeat demons and ordinary monsters with this trident! As they said in the game, this is legendary!”
Bu Che chose a rare white wolf helmet that had a yellow light around it, and it increased the level to one of the druids’ elemental skills, could self-repair, and had a charged skill.
The charged skill was firestorm, a low-level skill of the druids.
It was the most valuable rare item that he could find at this stage.
On the side, w.a.n.g Tai picked up his staff, which made of some unknown material.
The moment that he got his hands on the staff, w.a.n.g Tai ran out of the door and chanted. Then, the soil was sucked from beneath the paving stones on the street and condensed into a monster more than two meters high in front of him!
“Clay Golem?!” All the people gaped at the monster outside the shop. “F*ck!”
Bu Che ran out of the shop and shouted, “Look at my Firestorm!”
He lifted his hand, and several flame snakes crawled forward on the ground and formed a huge fire before him!
“Lame! You’re all too weak!” Song Qingfeng dashed to the Clay Golem. “Watch me use the Saint Spirit Sword Technique! Sword 1! Sword 2! Sword 3…”
While he used the sword technique, the condensed sword essence left deep cuts in the Clay Golem!
“How come you can use the Saint Spirit Sword Technique?!” Many cultivators looked baffled.
“In the last few episodes of Wind and Cloud, Bu Jingyun finally got the scroll that doc.u.mented the Saint Spirit Sword Technique!” Song Qingfeng continued to use the exquisite sword technique.
“Look at me!” Eager to join in on the fun, Jiang Xiaoyue dashed out of the shop with a wooden sword in her hand and yelled, “Sword control technique!”
The wooden sword turned into a sword shadow and hacked toward the Clay Golem’s head!
Crack! Crack!
The damaged Clay Golem collapsed to the ground in flames.
w.a.n.g Tai looked at the Clay Golem that he had just summoned about ten seconds ago and was at a loss for words.
“None of it can compete with my dark gold trident!” Nalan Hongwu waved his hands and used the heavy trident magnificently!
“Enough!” With a dark expression, Fang Qi looked at the uneven street and said, “You’ll ruin the ground!”
“Come on! Let me study them carefully!” The artifact masters including Jun Yangzi, Tian Fengzi and Duan Buyi had heat in their eyes. These things that could be barely considered as artifacts were not as powerful as the ones they made, and Nalan Hongwu’s dark gold trident was only a top-tier artifact for cultivators who weren’t powerful yet. However, some of the attributes that they had, such as the slowing effect, ability to decrease its target defense, and self-repair, were very powerful!
As for the other attributes, they were not powerful but were very unique, and they could fill some gaps in the current artifact-making method.
“However…” Nalan Hongwu frowned and pulled Jun Yangzi to one side, whispering to him, “If these things are really so easy to mimic as you said, will they be safe?”
As the leader of a big family, it was natural for him to consider many things. For example, he was worried that their enemies could also mimic these weapons.
He wouldn’t allow such a thing to happen!
“Don’t underestimate us old guys.” Jun Yangzi pointed at the Razortine and said with a chuckle, “I’ve studied it and found that there aren’t many protections on the mysterious runewords.”
“After all, it was produced in a world that was about to be destroyed, and no one cared about the issue of being mimicked,” Jun Yangzi said, “Of course, things such as materials, textures, order of the runewords would take most cultivators a long time or even a lifetime to gain deep understanding!”
“Then, why did you say that you could do it?!” Nalan Hongwu’s face turned dark.
Jun Yangzi chuckled. “What do you think Haoran has been doing in Diablo this long?”
“What has he been doing?”
“He has been asking about the basic forging method and how to use the runewords!” Jun Yangzi said, “At first, the blacksmiths and sorcerers wouldn’t talk, but they began to tell him things later.”
“Only when you enter their world and get taught by them can you really understand this stuff! Otherwise, you can’t find the door no matter how smart you are!”
Being taught! Right! Diablo was a game, but no one said that other things couldn’t be learned in it!
Nalan Hongwu: “…”
“In the future, our Wuwei Daoist Alliance will engrave special arrays onto items to prevent other forces from copying them. The artifact masters who are involved in this project are all core members of each faction, and they must sign a high-level contract before joining. I’ve done this for hundreds of years; how can I make such a mistake?” While stroking his beard, Jun Yangzi said mysteriously, “I can promise you that as long as the shop owner doesn’t get involved, no one else can mimic these artifacts!”
They smiled at each other with understanding.
While nodding, Jun Yangzi said to Lan Mo by his side, “Senior Brother, we can summon the artifact masters now!”
“The new spiritual artifacts will contain the structure and runewords from Diablo and you cultivators’ own artifact-making techniques. I can’t wait to see them!” Nalan Hongwu laughed and said with a glowing face.
