Chapter 578: A Great Sword (1/2)

Lin Mu didn't even know if the sword was able to handle the activation of so many formations, not to mention the consumption of spirit Qi that came with it. But then he remembered the spirit Qi concentration here and understood that the sword would still be able to function.

But if this was the Shuang Qian kingdom, for example, there was no way the sword would be able to work, unless the user supplied all of the spirit Qi on his own. But that was not all, as Lin Mu could not even tell the grade of the sword.

The reason for this was because while the sword did have a lot of formations, it was not emitting any major spirit Qi fluctuations, which made it hard to estimate. But just from the quality and number of formations on it, Lin Mu guessed that it was a high grade spirit weapon easily.

”Ah, I see you noticed it.” Jing Luo said upon seeing where Lin Mu was looking at.

”What is this sword?” Lin Mu questioned, feeling quite curious.

”To be honest, even I don't know. The sword randomly fell from the sky one day. I've tried to analyze it but the runes and formations on it are just too complex for my capabilities.” Jing Luo spoke.

”Fell from the sky? When exactly did this happen?” Lin Mu questioned.

”Hmm… it was a year after I appeared in this minor plane. Back then there were some instabilities in the world due to the detonation of the spirit tool I had. That was a prototype of a peak grade spirit tool, thus it had quite a lot of power in it.

Though seeing this place was likely to be part of the sacred ground of the Ripple Mist sect, I reckoned it just came from there. Or perhaps it was part of their sect and accidentally fell here due to spatial interference.

And I had no reason to doubt it either, as it was not like that was the first time it happened. From time to time, beasts would also appear out of thin air randomly. I had to be on my toes all the time for the fear that a random Nascent soul realm beast would pounce on my back.

Oh, there was also that one time when half a cliff fell about an inch from my head when I was sleeping.” Jing Luo answered.

Hearing Jing Luo's words, Lin Mu was reminded of the random items that he got from the lesser void when he used the ring's ability. But at least it wasn't as dangerous as Jing Luo's condition. Lin Mu didn't know if he would ever be able to sleep peacefully, knowing that a cliff would randomly fall on his head.

”This sword, you said you analyzed it… did you try to ever use it?” Lin Mu questioned.

”Yes, I did. And I failed… miserably.” Jing Luo said with a wry smile.

”Why? It's just a sword, can't you just swing it?” Lin Mu felt strange.

Even if a spirit weapon was sealed, and their skills can't be used, one could still act like a brute and swing them like a barbarian.
