Landing on the ground, Qin Wu's face was pale white, without a trace of blood, the Qi on his body fluctuated, as though he was heavily injured.

Heaven devouring rat were indeed very strong, and with Qin Wu's current cultivation below the Martial Monarch realm, after being trapped by the vortex, he was unable to break free, and all the spirit energy in his body was constantly flowing, being devoured by a terrifying Power of Devouring.

If not for the holy blade that Ling Yun had given him in the Ten Thousand Beast Temple, he would never have been able to escape his imprisonment.

The purity of the spirit essence was low and it was impure. After being refined for nearly a month, he had only managed to refine not even ten percent of it. The might of the saint artifact was simply unable to be unleashed.

Right now, with the sacred blade in his hand, it was not as effective as a Stage Four spirit weapon. Moreover, he only needed to use it once to absorb all the spiritual energy in his body.

The only good thing about it was that it could destroy everything in its path. It was precisely because of this effect that he was able to escape. However, he was running out of spiritual energy.

"Just a mere Martial King and you actually have a saint artifact on you. It seems that you are someone with a great fortune and have many secrets on your body. I am becoming more and more interested in you." The Heaven devouring rat squinted, took a step forward, and appeared in front of Qin Wu, looking down at him from above, and said slowly.

Qin Wu's face sank, even he himself was already very careful, after throwing out the strike, he had kept the Holy Blade back into the Qi Sea to nurture it, who would have thought that this Old Monster would still be able to feel the aura of the Holy-ranked Artifact.

"What?" "Saint artifact?" Su Xin and the others were all shocked. They naturally knew what kind of existence a Holy-ranked Artifact was, but they had never seen anything like it before. They never expected that Qin Wu actually had a Holy-ranked Artifact on him.

In that moment, not only was killing intent condensed in the eyes of everyone who looked at Qin Wu, they also revealed a hint of greed and passion, and even more of them were sighing. With the Heaven devouring rat here, that sacred artifact was basically not fated with them.

"The treasures belong to those who are destined to possess it, but only those with the ability to do so are able to possess them." The Heaven devouring rat's face revealed a look of greed, she reached out with her hand, and formed a claw with her fingers, a Swallowing Vortex formed in her hand, a claw aiming for Qin Wu's Qi Sea, wanting to take the saint artifact out, to take it for herself.

Clang!

A hum akin to that of a gold iron clashing rang out from Qin Wu's body. The space rippled and the hand that the Heaven devouring rat had grabbed was thrown out.

"Eh?"

The Heaven devouring rat let out a surprised cry at first, as though it did not expect such an unexpected turn of events. It was not alarmed but happy instead, as ecstasy appeared on its face: "Hahaha, great, I never thought that such a spiritual thing would be born. Not bad, not bad."

Once a spirit weapon reaches rank 4, it can be refined with fresh blood and be kept in the Qi Sea to nurture. After a long period of time, there is a certain probability of having a spirit.

After that, they would follow the master's cultivation to break through, and with the continuous nourishment of the spiritual energy, they would automatically advance to the next level.

As for the saint artifact, after it was forged, it had a certain amount of intelligence and could choose its own master. Even if someone else were to take it away, they wouldn't dare to use it because they feared that it would devour them.

But generally speaking, this is where the Spirit of the Holy-ranked Artifact ended, but if one obtained a lucky chance, for example, the Spirit of the heavenly and earthly treasures, their level of Spirit would increase.

Once they reached a certain point, they would be able to spiritualize and turn into spirit of artifact. At that time, spirit of artifact would be extremely useful.

But to be able to leave one's original body to fight, the strength displayed would be equivalent to a fully recovered Sacred Artifact. In other words, it was equivalent to a set of Martial Saint.

Even if it had not transformed into a spirit of artifact, the higher its intelligence, the more flexible the saint artifact would be.
