Chapter 70: Choosing a Spirit Weapon
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
After an afternoon of cleaning and settling in, the new house finally felt like home. It was clean, tidy, and spacious.
Fang Shuping happily wandered around the kitchen, living room, and bedroom, muttering to herself.
“The old house had such a small kitchen. This place is great, it can fit so many things. Tomorrow, I’m going to buy a large double-door refrigerator, a range hood, a microwave, an air fryer, a large cabinet, a…
“The sofa in the living room couldn’t even be placed like this. This place is so wide! I must go to the furniture store tomorrow and buy a new set of stylish mahogany furniture…”
Fang Shuping muttered softly, her face beaming with joy.
Chu Xingguo was sitting cross-legged on a cushion in the middle of the living room. There was a red, crystal-clear, ruby-like fruit on a plate beside his feet.
The fruit was the size of a fist, and it was burning with flame-like patterns. Wisps of spiritual energy spread out from the fruit.
This was the Sun Fruit!
Chu Xingguo looked at the Sun Fruit in his hand with a pained expression. Although the price of the Sun Fruit had dropped recently, this one still cost 100,000 dollars…
Chu Xingguo stopped hesitating and took a bite of the Sun Fruit. It was sweet and juicy, and the flesh that was filled with spiritual power immediately flowed down his throat and into his body.
As the fruit was slowly consumed, Chu Xingguo’s skin instantly turned red!
Wisps of hot air rose from his neck and scalp as if Chu Xingguo was in a sauna!
A low and deep rumble of vitality surging burst from Chu Xingguo’s body!
At the same time, the pores on Chu Xingguo’s skin began to continuously seep out black matter.
In the blink of an eye, Chu Xingguo turned into a black man!
Chu Lingjun watched quietly from the side.
This was the third Sun Fruit he had consumed.
After half a month of recuperation, his father’s complexion and expression had undergone visible changes.
His face became more and more rosy, and even his originally white sideburns turned back to black!
His hands and feet, which were prone to rheumatism on rainy days, were also cured!
Some of the internal injuries in his body had also fully healed!
Chu Lingjun looked at the changes in his father’s body with satisfaction.
The blood essence in his body had reached its maximum capacity!
The surging vitality constantly attacked the barrier membrane in his bloodline. The membrane was on the verge of collapse as if it would break at any moment, but it was always just a little bit away.
Chu Lingjun was not surprised.
The older one was, the harder it was to break through.
As long as the third Sun Fruit could loosen this checkpoint even by a little, it would be considered a success. Next time, with the help of the Sun Fruit and Edge Cloud Flower, his father would definitely advance to a Rank Two martial artist!
Unfortunately, being a Rank Two martial artist would be his father’s limit. If he wanted to go higher, breaking through to Rank Three would probably be considered a fever dream.
On the spacious balcony, Chu Yue smiled sweetly as she leaned back in her wheelchair. She happily shone under the moonlight. The rays of moonlight enveloped her body, giving her a layer of dazzling silver.
Chu Lingjun glanced at Chu Yue a few times. He did not know if it was his imagination, but as the muscles on Chu Yue’s feet gradually became stronger, and her vitality slowly replenished, Chu Yue did not seem to be as dull as before.
In the past, besides basking in the sun and the moon, Chu Yue would sit in the wheelchair like a lifeless puppet.
When others spoke to her, she would respond in a daze. Most of the time, she would sit and not respond.
However, Chu Yue’s expression had changed a lot during this period of time, and she had become more talkative.
If one’s vitality was high enough, would it be helpful for the development of the brain?
Chu Lingjun was left puzzled.
He could only wait until she went to Lan City for a check-up next month. he would ask his parents to check the development of her brain again.
Chu Lingjun went to look for Shen Yanhu early in the morning the following day.
Shen Yanhu had said that he would bring him to the spirit weapon room and let him choose a spirit weapon.
However, what gave Chu Lingjun a slight headache was that he was already at Rank Two. A rank one spirit weapon was not worthy of his power…
Chu Lingjun pondered. He wanted to see if there was any way to obtain a rank two spirit weapon later.
“Good morning, sir! I’m ready to go!”
Chu Lingjun arrived at the school very quickly and found Shen Yanhu at the logistics department.
“Alright, follow me.” Shen Yanhu led Chu Lingjun into the logistics department.
The school’s logistics department was a standalone building. This building was three to four stories high, and every floor was sealed without a window.
Shen Yanhu brought Chu Lingjun to the door behind the office and saw that it was a super alloy door that was half a meter thick. Moreover, there were several spiritual energy arrays on the door.
Shen Yanhu keyed in a string of passcodes on the door, scanned his fingerprint, and matched it with his pupil. Only then did the door slowly open.
“The security here is tight!”
“It has to be. Wait till you go to university or other places in the future, you’ll know what true defense is.” Shen Yanhu smiled.
There were rows and rows of shelves and cabinets in the room; many of them glittered and dazzled.
Each magic circle had its own magic shield. There were also a large number of cameras on the ceiling of the room.
As the two of them walked in, nearly half of the cameras turned around and stared at the two of them.
With such a formation, even thieves would have to turn around when they entered.
“Alright, take a look at whatever there is. If you like it, let me know. I’ll open the array for you to test it out.” Shen Yanhu smiled.
“Teacher, are all the rank one spirit weapons here?” Chu Lingjun wasn’t in a hurry and chose to ask questions instead.
“Yes.”
“Are there any rank two weapons?”
“You’re thinking too far ahead, aren’t you?” Shen Yanhu was appalled. What was the point of having a Rank Two weapon when he was only Rank One?
“There are no rank two weapons here. However, with your talent… You’ll just have to wait till next semester. Maybe then you’ll reach Rank Two by then.” “Then how can I obtain a rank two spirit weapon right now?”
“Generally speaking, the school will reward the first place in the second year’s monthly exam with a rank two spirit weapon.”
‘By the time I’m in my second year of high school, I might have already broken through to Rank Three!’
This was the first time Chu Lingjun felt the distress of cultivating too quickly!
Chu Lingjun shook his head and looked at the spirit weapons around him. He decided to take a look around before deciding.
The room was a few hundred square meters big. All the rank one spirit weapons were stored here.
Every shelf had quite a number of spiritual weapons stored on it. With a rough estimation, there were at least a thousand spiritual weapons in this room. “Sir, why are there so many spirit tools here?”
“There are Armament Masters in our school who will refine them. Every year, the Martial Arts Association, the Superpower Association, and the military will donate some old spiritual weapons to us. Our school will repair them and store them here.”
Chu Lingjun nodded. There were knives, spears, staffs, cudgels, and other spirit weapons in the room. There were even some rare halberds, axes, and maces.
In terms of size, these spiritual weapons were slightly larger than ordinary weapons.
These weapons wouldn’t be made especially big just because they were meant to fight exotic beasts.
The most important reason was that martial artists would produce true qi after reaching Rank Two.
True qi could be attached to the blade of a sword or saber to form a longer qi weapon to defend themselves against the enemy.
Therefore, in this situation, it did not matter whether the weapon was made big or not.
However, when a martial artist’s cultivation was strong, their physique would also become more built. For example, Chu Lingjun had already grown to 1.8 meters.
There were martial artists who were two meters tall. When something like that happens, the spiritual weapon has to be slightly larger in order to be used appropriately.
Chu Lingjun looked at the spirit weapons one by one. Half an hour later, Chu Lingjun exclaimed in surprise and stopped on a small green drum and a light golden club..
