2409 Saint!
That was a woman’s figure.
The light was blurred, and one could only see a rough outline.
Yu Jiu’s heart skipped a beat as he instinctively tightened his hold on the wooden sword and stared at it closely.
Ever since this mirror appeared in the barrier, it was the first time such a situation happened!
He looked at that figure without blinking and wanted to differentiate it. It was a pity that the figure was too blurred, and he could not see anything detailed.
A faint suppression gradually exuded and caused Yu Jiu to feel deep terror. This is…
However, it was just for a moment before the figure slowly dissipated.
The bright light on the mirror wrapped it again and covered everything. It was as if… everything was normal.
However, Yu Jiu could not relax. I have almost never felt such a shocking suppression before! Why would such a figure appear in the mirror, and who exactly is that person?!
Yu Jiu felt rather uneasy, but after a long time, that scene did not appear again.
After a while, he finally exhaled lightly and turned around.
By the sky, a silver bridge crossed the air.
Quiet, solemn, and holy!
…
More and more heavenly lightning gathered.
Shangguan Jing stood in the air, and a knife quietly floated before him.
It was a knife made from green-black copper. The body of the knife was about three fingers wide and one finger thick. There was a dent on its back.
At this point, countless silver lightning bolts continuously descended and entered the long knife!
Sparks flew everywhere, and the thunder whirred.
Shangguan Jing held his breath in and focused tightly on the long knife before him, terrified that a mistake would be made.
Originally, he thought that with the lightning pool sealed, he didn’t have much hopes of breaking through. He did not expect Lady Shiyi and Lady Shi’er to come to help, and there was also Tang Ke.
If he still could not succeed with so much external support, he would be too ashamed to face the crowd!
Everything before progressed smoothly, and only the most crucial part was left now: guide the force in the Holy Jade of Chaos to enter it and nourish it to become a holy weapon!
This step sounded easy, but it was very difficult to achieve. There were definitely many supreme Armory Refinement Masters in Fantasy Divine Palace, but only a few succeeded after all these years.
Hence, Shangguan Jing was also extremely nervous.
He looked up at the Fantasy Divine Hall at the end of the sky. His success and failure all depended on this!
Then, he held the knife with both hands and crazily injected his holy force!
…
Swoosh!
A crystal light suddenly flew out of the Fantasy Divine Hall, drawing a line across the sky as it went straight to Shangguan Jing!
“It’s about to be complete!” Seeing this scene, Tang Ke hurled his fists and could not conceal his emotions.
He was an Armory Refinement Saint and knew very clearly that Shangguan Jing could definitely break through to become a saint!
This commotion attracted countless people’s attention.
Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!
Sounds of things piercing through the air could be heard.
Quite a few people appeared consecutively, and they looked up at the crystal light.
“Is… someone producing a holy weapon?”
“This commotion doesn’t seem like it’s coming from the Fantasy Divine Hall. It seems like someone is breaking through to become an Armory Refinement Saint…”
“Wait a minute. That direction… Why does it seem like-—”
Nearing the day of the Heaven Gate closing, everyone was in an extremely nervous and tense state. Now that such a huge commotion suddenly occurred, it naturally stirred the crowd.
At this time, any slight change would attract a lot of attention, let alone a major matter of someone breaking through to become an Armory Refinement Saint!
In no time, countless people followed the light and looked at Shangguan Jing.
Very quickly, someone with a sharp gaze recognized him. “Isn’t that Shangguan Jing? The one that came with Shangguan Yue.”
“He doesn’t seem to have a bloodline totem either. Why is he also breaking through to become an Armory Refinement Saint?”
“I heard that he was a top Armory Refinement Master previously in the God Residence Realm…”
“That’s not right! Isn’t the lightning pool already sealed? Where did these lightning bolts come from?”
Shangguan Jing’s breakthrough caused a lot of people to be envious and shocked. The origin of these lightning bolts also made them extremely curious and dazed.
Lady Shiyi looked up and put away the Yuan instrument in her hands. “It should be enough.”
“Sister, it’s enough?” asked Lady Shi’er with some uncertainty.
Lady Shiyi nodded affirmatively.
Tang Ke also nodded in agreement. “There should be enough lightning bolts. It’s up to him now.”
If he could progress to this step, there wouldn’t be a need to worry about the rest.
“Oh, okay.” Lady Shi’er obediently put away her things. As if she felt something, she looked up.
At this point, that ray of light pierced through the sky and landed on the long knife in front of Shangguan Jing!
Boom!
A loud sound was heard, and strong energy ripples spread toward the surroundings!
That crystal light instantly wrapped around the knife, and an indescribable aura started surging out from within!
Tang Ke was determined. Shangguan Jing’s talent in armory refinement is indeed shocking. He did not waste my guidance during this period of time. Now, he finally—
“What’s that?” A soft voice suddenly sounded in his ears.
Tang Ke turned around and saw Lady Shi’er looking up in a daze. She asked that previously.
“Lady Shi’er, what are you asking about?” Seeing that her expression seemed amiss, Tang Ke could not help but ask.
He liked these two ladies very much, so he was especially patient with them.
Lady Shi’er pointed above and softly asked, “That… light?”
Tang Ke was dazed for a moment and later explained, “Oh, that’s aura from the Holy Jade of Chaos. If one wants to produce a holy weapon, they must have this thing.”
Lady Shi’er nodded in understanding, but she kept staring at the skies. It was unknown what she was thinking.
Then, she lightly pulled Lady Shiyi’s sleeves.
Lady Shiyi turned around to take a look.
The two of them exchanged a glance.
Without speaking, they knew what each other were thinking: I want to… go and take a look.
Lady Shiyi was more mature after all. After some thinking, she said, “I’m afraid it’s inconvenient now. I’ll think of another way later on.”
Lady Shi’er nodded obediently. “I’ll listen to you, Sister.”
The duo’s voices were very soft, and Tang Ke had most of his attention on Shangguan Jing, so he didn’t hear them clearly.
Boom!
A shocking suppression suddenly descended!
Shangguan Jing… officially became an Armory Refinement Saint!
…
Chu Liuyue’s eyes sparkled slightly.
She long knew that her ancestor would succeed, but she never expected it to be under such circumstances… It was really not easy.
“Yue’er, it’s your turn.” A low and gentle voice sounded.
She retracted her gaze and looked at the chessboard between the both of them.
The rays of light on her fingertips moved as she placed another piece without hesitation. This time, she unleashed even stronger force!
Slap!
The chessboard rippled, but it was for just a moment before Rong Xiu placed another piece.
The black chess piece landed right after hers.
All the ripples silently disappeared!
