It was July 28th on Friday in the fourteenth week of the semester. After school, Wang Ling hurried back to his room.
He was preparing something for Wang Ming's birthday. He had actually been thinking about it for a long time, but hadn't figured out what on earth to give Wang Ming.
Wang Ming's birthday was on August 1st, Army Day, which also happened to be the day of the summer camp. There would definitely be a lot of trouble with the school's trip to Beast King's Remains this time, so Wang Ling decided to first deal with the most important issue of gift-giving before thinking about the rest.
In the end, he still had to deal with things one by one.
Birthday gift, final exams, summer camp, the mysterious kun belly girl who was currently undergoing treatment at Immortal Toya's place, as well as the identity of the mysterious angler behind the scenes … all of these troublesome matters had to be dealt with one by one.
It was best to give a gift in line with the recipient's wishes, which was the most difficult part.
Wang Ling knew that Wang Ming was a very prideful person, so he had to be careful with what he gave him and not touch Wang Ming's bottom line … For example, while Wang Ming was exceptionally obsessed with cultivation, Wang Ling actually had a lot of unorthodox ways to help him embark on the path of cultivation. Unfortunately, Wang Ming himself wouldn't accept them at all.
Wang Ling remembered very clearly that a few years ago, Wang Ming had confidently patted his chest and said that sooner or later, he would open up a path of his own.
Even if he was a natural muggle and just an ordinary person, he would be able to stand shoulder to shoulder with the most powerful cultivators in the world.
Thus, he could basically dispense with cultivation magic artifacts … Wang Ling had initially wanted to use the three emotion stones left over from making the "Three Views-Shattering Hammer" to make a permanent armor for Wang Ming, but after careful consideration, Wang Ling immediately felt that this plan wasn't very reliable.
Because in comparison, Wang Ming would definitely rather use a rechargeable magic treasure that he had developed himself.
After the incident with Old Antique and Shuigou Sect, Wang Ming had modified the Heavenly Materials sword that he had taken back from the Master of Immortal Mansion Cheng Yu. The sword was much lighter, and it could be used for up to half a month after being recharged. The most important thing was that it was very fast, and only needed four hours to completely recharge.
In addition, Wang Ming had also added a device to the hilt to display the percentage of spirit energy …
It could be said that the entire Heavenly Materials sword had already been modified by Wang Ming to resemble modern cultivation science. The most frightening thing was that not only had the Heavenly Materials sword's effectiveness not decreased, it had instead increased.
Originally, the Heavenly Materials Sword had a powerful ability to seal spirits. As long as the Heavenly Materials Sword stabbed someone, even if it was just the tiniest bit of skin, the sealing ability would immediately take effect.
During the Shuigou Sect incident, Wang Ming had once used the Heavenly Materials sword to subdue a Nascent Soul cultivator. That Nascent Soul cultivator hadn't been able to put up the slightest bit of resistance in the face of the Heavenly Materials sword, which was enough to prove how powerful it was.
After all, this was a magic sword that the Master of Immortal Mansion had spent nearly a hundred years of painstaking effort to forge. At one point, he had even wanted to seize Jingke to extract its sword spirit and inject it into the Heavenly Materials sword.
Unfortunately, the Master of Immortal Mansion's scheme didn't succeed.
The only flaw in the Heavenly Materials sword was that it had yet to form a sword spirit.
So at this thought, Wang Ling already had an idea.
Moreover, compared to giving a magic tool, giving a Sword Spirit was indeed a good idea …
When necessary, the sword spirit could be Wang Ming's bodyguard, and he could also call 120 at any time. If Wang Ming accidentally ate Zhai Yin's food one day and couldn't recover … with the sword spirit by his side, he would definitely be able to save his life!
…
However, the formation of a sword spirit wasn't something that could be formed overnight. Furthermore, in a situation where Wang Ming couldn't circulate his spirit energy on his own, it was absolutely impossible to cultivate a sword spirit by relying solely on ordinary spirit energy.
But this didn't mean that Wang Ming couldn't have a sword spirit. There were currently a lot of mass-produced branded spirit swords on the market which all had their own sword spirits. Some of these sword spirits were artificially produced, while others were naturally bred through industrial means. As long as they met the lowest industry standards, they could be sold publicly.
If a spirit sword was produced by industrial means, its appearance would basically be the same, and one could tell at a glance. As for the Sword Spirits that were born naturally, when they were summoned for the first time, their appearance would automatically change into the appearance that the Sword Master most desired.
In fact, this concept was not much different from the concept of a tool spirit, because a sword spirit itself was also a kind of tool spirit …
As for how to help Wang Ming form a sword spirit in the Heavenly Materials sword …
He would have to ask the Heavenly Dao to make arrangements …
…
…
This was the third time this month that Wang Ling had summoned the Heavenly Dao through the Equivalent Exchange Array … this was more frequent than in previous years.
When Wang Ling was young, the Heavenly Dao had been eager to make a deal with him.
Now, the Heavenly Dao was very afraid that Wang Ling would make a deal with it …
Of course, if it was Wang Ling's handwritten letter, the Heavenly Dao would still be very happy to trade, but what if it was crispy noodle snacks?
And the most frightening thing was that no matter what Wang Ling offered in exchange, the Heavenly Dao didn't have the power to refuse … because the array itself was an equivalent exchange. As the person who had the right to summon the Heavenly Dao, Wang Ling could offer anything at his disposal in exchange.
Crispy noodle snacks would work too …
Even if what Wang Ling needed was a little special, as long as he had enough crispy noodle snacks, he could trade for it.
When Wang Ling summoned the Heavenly Dao once again with the refinement array, the Three Inches Astonishing Man, who was the embodiment of Heavenly Dao, was directly alarmed: Why are you here again …
The golden three-inch man was silent for a moment, a few drops of cold sweat rolling down his forehead.
A few minutes later, the golden three-inch man accepted reality …
The golden three-inch man: "What … do you want?"
"Sword spirit."
Wang Ling stared at the golden three-inch man embodiment of Heavenly Dao and spoke telepathically.
Sword spirit?
The golden three-inch man was blank for a moment, then asked, "Where's the sword?"
For the Heavenly Dao, a sword spirit actually wasn't anything special, because it was born naturally. The most important thing was that all weapon spirits were created by Heavenly Dao, but they were only a very small part of the vast Heavenly Dao system. As long as the golden three-inch man wanted to, he could even custom-make a sword spirit for himself.
Wang Ling: "It's not my sword. You'll have to make the arrangements."
The golden three-inch man: "…"
Wang Ling asked telepathically, "Can't I?"
The golden three-inch man: "It's not that I can't … if it's not your sword, this deal will be a little expensive …"
Expensive?
Wang Ling cupped his chin in contemplation, his voice trembling. "How … how many crispy noodle snacks?"
