Chapter 790: 13. Can You Distinguish Between Male and Female?
Translator: 549690339
Xia Ji arrived at the royal armory.
He had come here to take the Great Dark Heavenly Halberd.
This halberd seemed to be a divine weapon in the mortal world, but after he attained the Dao, he felt that this weapon was not that simple.
Or rather, all divine weapons were not that simple.
Divine weapons were formed from spirit treasures that had lost their chaotic Qi.
The reason why they were able to give birth to Artifact Spirits forever was not because they were special, but because Artifact Spirits were the next generation of the dead Artifact Spirits.
The difference was that the spirit of the spiritual treasure was more human-like, while the spirit of the divine weapon was much worse. One only needed to compare the black saber with the Ten Thousand Miles of Clouds to understand that the human-like nature of the two was completely different.
He had vaguely understood this when he experienced the flood of Numinous Treasures.
However, the Great Dark Heavenly Halberd was special because it hadn’t completely ” died ” yet. It still had the possibility of ” reviving “, which might be related to its fall in the previous era.
In short, it had not died for too long, or it could be said that it was too powerful when it was alive, so it had not completely died even after thousands of years.
This was also the origin of its ferocity.
Although it had yet to awaken its intelligence, its ferocious nature as a spiritual treasure made it unwilling to die like this, and it was unwilling to be touched by ordinary people. That was why it emitted demonic qi crazily. Even if it was suppressed by experts, it never gave in. It was like a wild horse that could not be controlled.
Xia Ji didn’t understand this in his previous life, so he allowed the Chaos Qi to dissipate. However, he wouldn’t miss it in this life.
Not only would he not miss it, but he would also activate this strand of Chaos Qi and turn the Great Dark Heavenly Halberd into a Numinous Treasure.
Although it was slightly weaker than an ordinary Numinous Treasure, it was still the weapon that he was most familiar with in the past.
At this moment, the palace was almost in ruins.
The armory was also unguarded. Almost everything inside had been emptied, except for a gloomy coffin in the corner.
The lid of the coffin was slightly opened, and wisps of black gas were seeping out. It was likely that someone had tried to take this weapon away but failed.
Xia Ji suddenly wondered if it was lying there waiting for him.
As this thought flashed through his mind, he walked forward and flicked his finger. The coffin lid was pushed to the ground, and a huge echo reverberated in the empty quiet room.
In an instant, the black gas surged out like the tentacles of a devil. Some of them even reached out to Xia Ji.
However, as soon as the tentacles touched Xia Ji, they retreated as if they had been electrocuted.
A nostalgic look appeared on Xia Ji’s face as he looked at the 18-foot-long double-crescent halberd. Many memories flashed through his mind. The figure who once retreated from the ghost city with a halberd, fought against thousands of troops alone, and then went to the south alone to fight against enemies from all directions on the peaks.
It seemed far and near…
It seemed near yet far…
They gradually overlapped with him.
The past him, the present him, and the future him had always been one person.
Although the past has passed, the Tao has stopped.
Since the path didn’t stop, the people on the path had to continue moving forward.
Xia Ji raised his hand and sucked. The cold shaft of the black halberd fell into his fingers and was held tightly.
Divine weapons were difficult to tame, especially this kind of demonic halberd. The moment Xia Ji grabbed it, inky demonic Qi seeped out from his fingers and drilled into his skin. Some of it even circled around his body and went towards his seven orifices.
“How mischievous.”
Xia Ji only smiled.
He closed his eyes and said softly, ” Since you still have the wildness and unwillingness, why don’t you fight side by side with me again? ”
His words were filled with a strange magic, as if heaven and earth were talking to this cold killing halberd.
Could the halberd speak?
He wouldn’t.
But it understood.
In Xia Ji’s previous life, he had subdued it with his strength.
In this life, without using any power, it had already understood.
He held the Great Dark Heavenly Halberd and used his current strength to search for and touch that wisp of Chaos Qi.
Finally, he saw the Chaos Qi in the corner, or perhaps the true artifact spirit of the Great Dark Heavenly Halberd, which was a spirit treasure. It was not something that was born after the artifact spirit died.
The Artifact Spirit was not as arrogant and despotic as Black Blade in his previous life, nor was it as fierce as the Great Dark Heavenly Halberd…
It shrank into the darkness, seemingly aware of its fate of dissipating.
Its master was already dead, and it was about to die.
It sensed Xia Ji’s spirit, but it was still afraid that it would dissipate.
“Come on,” Xia Ji said gently.
It didn’t dare.
“If you win this battle, I’ll give you the Boundary Weapon to resist the netherworld and support the Immortal Palace.”
It raised its head timidly.
“If you’re unwilling…” Xia Ji smiled. How about following me and fighting forever? Fighting the heavens and the earth, fighting the other side, even crossing the edge of the universe to enter the arena of the Cultivation tournament is not a problem.”
“I …” The Artifact Spirit finally spoke in a dry voice, ” I’m useless. ”
“What’s wrong?”
“In my previous life, the black tide was high in the sky. The master of the great calamity poured down many black tides with just a thought. Master used me to resist the black tide, but…I can’t stop it. ‘Master died. I’m a useless spirit treasure…’ I’m very useless, really useless.”
Xia Ji was silent for a moment before extending his hand to the cat and saying gently, “”From now on, you’re not.”
If it were an ordinary person, they wouldn’t be able to describe the Artifact Spirit made of the Qi of Chaos in words. However, Xia Ji was the incarnation of half of the universe. Although he had lost his power, the Qi of Chaos was particularly sensitive to him. He was also very close to it, and he even had reverence for it.
The artifact spirit looked up at the gentle man.
After a long time,
After a long time,
It nodded.
Little Su looked at her brother, who was holding the halberd that was surrounded by black gas, and fell into a daze. She didn’t know what he was doing.
She was curious.
This was because she would never know the true relationship between a Divine Weapon and a Numinous Treasure, be it in this life or her previous life.
All spiritual treasures were lonely. When a mighty figure died, they would turn into a black tide. When a weapon spirit died, it would only degenerate into a divine weapon in loneliness before disappearing from the world.
At this moment, the lonely Artifact Spirit found its master again.
Xia Ji opened his eyes and exhaled gently. His breath was like the wind of heaven and earth.
The wind started to blow, and the black tide swirled rapidly with him at the center. It rose up into the sky and hit the yellow dust below, causing the snowy sky and the ruined capital city to be completely dark.
This was the Great Dark Sky.
The Great Dark Heavenly Halberd was a damaged Numinous treasure after all, and it wouldn’t last for many years.
However, now that all the spiritual treasures were suppressed to the tenth level due to the lack of spiritual energy, who would the Great Dark Heavenly Halberd be afraid of?
With a crippled body and the posture of a loser, he walked out from the brink of death and was held in Xia Ji’s hands.
Since they wanted to decide who was the winner, then…At this moment, can you tell whether I’m male or female?
