Chapter 252 1 (2/2)
“Hardness” was a Spirit Seal that could fortify the defense of a magical treasure.
“Flame” was a Spirit Seal that could enhance the power of flames of a magical treasure.
“Sharpness” was a Spirit Seal that could increase the sharpness of a magical treasure.
Ning Fan’s eyes flashed. The most suitable Spirit Seal for the Separation Slayer Sword was none other than “Sharpness”!
A sword didn’t need to possess a fancy ability. A swordsman did not need to develop a complicated method to wield it. As long as the sword was able to cut down enemies, it was good enough.
After making up his mind, he called out the word and began to perform the necessary hand seals. When his finger landed on the body of the sword, a multitude of ancient demon characters were drawn. The “Sharpness” Spirit Seal primarily constituted of the word “sharp” and eleven other subordinate demon characters.
In total, it would need 312 strokes!
As soon as he began to draw the first stroke, Ning Fan felt that it expended a unit of his demon power. It seemed as if the demon power had transformed into energy to power the rune!
The augmentation of the Spirit Seals is not really something a human can do.
The word “sharpness” itself contained 312 strokes. That is to say, only the Late Nascent Soul Realm demons who has at least 312 units of demon power would be able to imprint that Spirit Seal on their magical treasures. Besides, they would probably need to rest for a long time in order to fully replenish their demon power after engraving a single Spirit Seal.
When Ning Fan was drawing the ninety-seventh stroke, he failed due to the lack of smoothness on the tip of his finger.
He pondered in silence, reflecting the manner in which he drew the characters and restarted again very quickly.
This time, there was a slight improvement as he only failed after engraving the 276th stroke.
After failing for the second time, he comprehended something from the drawings and started all over again.
Finally, he succeeded on the third time!
When the “Sharpness” Spirit Seal became an abstruse mark embedded unto the body of the sword, Ning Fan could noticeably find that the sword trembled!
Although it was just a character, it looked like the power of Separation Slayer Sword had increased by a bit.
“Interesting. If I engrave ten thousand Spirit Seals of the same kind unto the Separation Slayer Sword, it will surely advance into the same grade as Spiritual Treasures. Its sharpness alone is enough to shred the void realm apart and kill Spirit Severing Realm beings!”
Ning Fan heaved a deep breath and traces of demon power became Spirit Seals, embedding themselves unto the sword.
2 marks, 3 marks, 4 marks…
The more Ning Fan did, the more well-versed he became in drawing the Spirit Seal. Of course, he was just becoming more familiar with the word “Sharpness”.
Until the twenty-fourth Spirit Seal was drawn, Ning Fan’s demon power was nearly used up. Only then did he stop and exhaled a mouthful of foul gas. Without wasting any time, he consumed a pill and rested to restore his demon power.
One day later, his demon power was fully replenished. It was then that he continued to engrave the Spirit Seals on the Separation Slayer Sword.
25 marks, 26 marks, 27 marks…
After finishing the forty-ninth Spirit Seal, his demon power was fully consumed once again.
In the meantime, he realized that the more the number of Spirit Seals he engraved, the harder it became to carve a new Spirit Seal.
He consumed a pill and regulated his breathing. On the next day, he repeated the same action again.
Day after day, the Golden Flame Chariot never ceased to move and the “flies” tailing after them never stopped chasing. At the same time, while Ning Fan was engraving Spirit Seals on his sword, Lu Wan’er was performing spirit augmentation on his magical treasure.
On the fifth day, the number of Spirit Seals on the Separation Slayer Sword increased to 114, making it break through to the Mid Supreme Grade.
On the fourteenth day, there were a total of 328 Spirit Seals on the sword, making it a High Supreme Grade weapon.
On the sixty-fifth day, he managed to engrave 1547 Spirit Seals on the sword, turning it into a Peak Supreme Grade weapon!
On the one hundred and fifty-fourth day, the number of Spirit Seals on the sword increased to 7455, making it even more sharper than an ordinary Profound Heaven Defective Treasure!
Five months!
Throughout the five months, Ning Fan consumed all of the pills that restore demon power gifted by Xu Rushan just for refining a weapon.
However, the 7456th mark became extremely strenuous to engrave. Even if he forcibly engraves it, it would not be perfect.
Perhaps it’s because I only have that much demon power… After all, engraving Spirit Seals could only be done by beings who have outstanding demon power.
Staring at the long sword shining with starlight, Ning Fan’s eyes flashed with excitement!
This sword has become exceedingly sharp!
