Chapter 271: Refining A Sword

Each and every material to refine a Mystical Grade Sword was present and these materials were of high quality.

The patriarch of the Zhu family again said, "I am not asking for a Middle-Grade or High-Grade Mystical rank Weapon. Even if you can refine a Low-grade Mystical Rank Sword, it will do."

"Don't worry, since I, Ye Xiao, said that I can refine the sword then, believe me, I can." Ye Xiao said and after thinking of something, he once again said, "As for the rewards, I only want Crystal Ink Fruit. I don't need spirit stones!"

"What?"

At this time, all the elders present were surprised. It included the patriarch and the young lady of the Zhu family.

"Young man, are you for real? You have to know that the reward is fifty thousand middle-grade spirit stones. If converted into Low-Grade Spirit Stones then it will be five hundred thousand Low-Grade Spirit Stones. And here you are saying that you don't want the spirit stones?" an old man with a white beard asked and from the tone he asked, it could be seen how shocked he currently was.

"I don't lack spirit stones!" Ye Xiao smiled and ended his answer with a single simple line. Then he focused his attention on the materials.

From the moment he merged with the memories of the Ancient God of Weapon Refinement, he never refined any weapon. This is the first time when he was going to refine a weapon and he has to succeed no matter what.

Hiss!

With a raise of his hand, a strand of blue flames arose in his palm, and in that instant, the surrounding's temperature increased.

"Blue Fire Soul!" The Zhu Family patriarch's pupils constricted as he cried out in surprise.

At this moment, he no longer doubted that Ye Xiao could refine a weapon but there was still some doubt. Refining a weapon and refining a Mystical Weapon, there was a great difference between these two.

Although he was mentally prepared since long ago, when he really saw Ye Xiao reveal his Blue Fire Soul, he still couldn't help but be slightly shocked.

"The young man is going to start now." In next to no time, the surrounding spectators' gazes all fixed on Ye Xiao.

When they saw the technique Ye Xiao revealed when he started refining, all the people present were stupefied.

The speed Ye Xiao's hands moved grew swifter and swifter, and they seemed to have transformed into bolts of lightning that ceaselessly crisscrossed passed each other.

At the same time, the pile of materials was quickly melted into pools of liquid by his Blue Fire Soul, and they ceaselessly roiled in the air.

"What a miraculous weapons refinement technique!" The Zhu Family Patriarch gasped with admiration.

Although he was considered an outsider in the Dao of Weapons Refinement, but in the past, he had seen a Weapons Craftsmen refining a High-Grade Spirit Weapon.

But in his eyes, the technique of those Weapons Craftsmen was unable to compare with the technique of the Ye Xiao showed.

They were completely not on the same level!

The speed at which Ye Xiao refined the Mystical Rank Sword could be said to be swift like lightning.

A profound weapons refinement techniques flowed freely in his hands without hesitation, with a speed that far surpassed anything the patriarch of the Zhu Family had seen till today.

This technique was something he got from the memories of the Ancient God of Weapon Refinement. How can any technique of the Lower Realm compare to this technique?

After two hours, all of the materials in Ye Xiao's hands merged together to start forming the shape of a sword!

The surrounding spectators were dumbstruck as they saw the forming shape of a sword above the Blue Fire Soul on Ye Xiao's hand.

The shape of a long sword was slowly forming between Ye Xiao's hands that raged with his Blue Fire Flame.

Now, it was already at the final moment, and it was less than an hour away from being completely refined successfully.

Presently, Ye Xiao still remained concentrated as he looked at the Mystical Rank Sword that was forming within his hands. He did not want to lose his focus at this moment as it was a very critical moment.

Even a tiny mistake can result in the failure of weapon refinement.

After another half an hour, Sword was successfully formed! The sword in Ye Xiao's hand was crimson red in colour.

The moment the sword was formed, a blinding light shined brightly and forced everyone to close their eyes. This blinding light came out from the crimson red sword in Ye Xiao's hand.

Sometime later, when all the people present opened their eyes, they were shocked to see that the sword was floating above Ye Xiao's hand on its own. It is as if the sword has awakened its intelligence.

A weapon's intelligence awakening means that sword has given birth to its spirit.

This matter was unbelievable.

It is widely known that only a natural-born treasure or weapon can give birth to a weapon spirit. But Ye Xiao clearly refined the sword in front of all of them but still, the sword has given birth to a spirit.

This crimson red sword looked very beautiful. There was a beautiful carving on the blade of the sword and looking at the hilt of this sword alone, one can say that it was refined mainly for a girl to use.

"Here!" Ye Xiao took a few steps forward and gave the sword to the Zhu Family's young lady.

She slowly extended her right hand. Her hand was trembling and it could be seen how excited she was at this moment.

She held the sword and swiftly moved it in the air, making a few arcs of light that were even sharper than the blade itself.

"Middle-Grade Mystical Rank Sword, and it is a top one even amongst middle-grade mystical rank weapons. It can be even compared with a High-Grade Mystical Rank Weapon with no weapon spirit."

The patriarch of the Zhu Family was shocked. It was not only him who was shocked but all the people present including Ye Xiao himself was shocked. He never thought that his first time refining a weapon could give birth to such an amazing weapon with a weapon spirit.

He could not understand why the sword gave birth to a weapon spirit so he once again went through the memories of the Ancient God of Weapon Refinement, and what he found once again confounded.

Actually, the technique he used to refine the sword played a vital role in giving birth to the Sword Spirit. With this technique, not only can the success rate of a weapon refinement increase by thirty percent, but there was a large possibility of the weapon to give birth to a sword spirit.

This technique to refine the weapon was not just for refining a weapon but also for creating a possibility where the weapon could give birth to a weapon spirit.

Ye Xiao remembered still remembered that the Golden Brick he got could not be store inside the spatial ring because of its spirit. As for the process to let a weapon recognize its master, he guessed that the Zhu family might not know about it. So, he decided to tell them.

"Ahm! Miss Zhu, drop a few drops of your blood on the sword. This will let the sword recognize you as its master."

"Really?" The young lady of the Zhu Family looked at him with some kind of expectation in her eyes.

"Really!" Ye Xiao nodded his head and confirmed her which made her even more excited. She made a small cut on her finger and dripped a few drops of her blood on the blade of the crimson red sword.

The moment the blood of Zhu Family's young lady fell on the blade of the sword, a blinding light once again shined on its blade but this time, the light was not as shiny as the first time it shined.

At this moment, the young lady of the Zhu Family can feel a connection between her and the sword in her hand. It was as if the sword was a part of her own body, she can feel the sword.

"Father, I can feel a connection between this sword and me. it really recognized me as its master." The young lady of the Zhu family said while looking at the sword in her hand in a way as though she was looking at her lover. From this, it could be seen how happy and excited she was right now.

A blooming smile appeared on the stern face of the patriarch of the Zhu Family as he looked at his daughter.

It was the first time he saw his daughter this excited. Normally, she only smiles and never shows such an excited expression but at this time, it could be seen that she was really happy from the bottom of her heart.
