Supreme Emperor of Mist

Chapter 98: Yin Ling Jian / Silver Ling Sword

"Parts of Crimson Battle Wolf."

"Parts of Mutated Foul Essence King."

"Parts of Violet Legged Broodmother."

"And lastly, parts of the Silver Canis Demon Soldier."

A compilation of different materials is loaded into the forge to create Huo Zunjie's Offensive Treasure. It was different from Lu Yi's sturdy and bulky Copper Xuan Sword based on the materials used for Huo Zunjie's tool.

And because the material used is different, the refining technique has to be adjusted slightly too. Instead of using the hammering technique to temper the weapon to the desired sturdiness, it was melted to create a bond between the materials.

The outcome of the process created a sword with rough edges. It was filled with impurities that even a naked eye can notice.

"The real challenge will start from here," the impurities all over the sword fell like shards the moment Qin Lan gave it a flick using his finger.

Firing the forge again, Qin Lan placed the sword back and forth as he keeps removing the impurities from the Offensive Treasure. This process repeated close to a hundred times until a distinctive feature of the blade finally appeared.

A slender sword about the size of two fingers soon appeared in Qin Lan's hand. It was created to be low profile based on Huo Zunjie's personality and carries a hint of silver appearance throughout the sword.

Once again, the final step of completing the sword is here.

Like how the Copper Xuan Sword came to life, Qin Lan's blood that came out in a mist form thoroughly covered the silver blade.

"Xing!!!" a vibration that concludes the sword's completion echoed inside Qin Lan's ear. The Spiritual Energy inside this spiritual cave was once again devoured by the sword in Qin Lan's hand.

"Yin-Ling-Jian!" three texts appeared not on the body of the blade but on the hilt itself. The text appeared to be coated with a layer of a violet hue.

"Silver Spirit Sword, what a great name!" Qin Lan nodded as the Offensive Treasure in his hand is finally completed. Smiling, Qin Lan gently placed the sword into a different box.

"Finally, the weapons for both of them are complete. I shall... I shall..." Qin Lan suddenly felt a hint of fatigue. In just a few seconds, he fell asleep while seated on where the swords are stored.

...

...

...

"What happened?" Qin Lan's spirit is wandering in an endless void without a set destination. His surrounding was covered with darkness and stars which seems far from his position.

But there's one thing he knew.

There must be a reason why he was brought here.

And since there was no indication about what he has to do or where he needs to go, Qin Lan decided to leave it to his fate. Feeling that his spirit is moving forward without a sense of direction, Qin Lan continued.

A shooting star passes through.

He barely walked across a blue planet.

School of a kind of rock beast flies through before him.

Then, his spirit arrived on top of a small asteroid about a-tenth of the blue planet he came across earlier.

"Is this where I'm supposed to go? But there's nothing here... Aargh!" his sight was blinded by a light that came out of sudden. The next moment when he opened his eyes again, he was once again seated beside the two swords.

"Is that... A dream?" Qin Lan questioned himself about what happened. It seems not even an incense stick of time has passed after he lost his consciousness.

But the inspiration for him to continue to craft the treasure is no longer around. After scanning the materials he has once again, Qin Lan finally released a disappointed sigh.

"Maybe... I went too strong from refining the two Precelestial Heaven-Grade (Full) Offensive Treasure." Qin Lan smiled sourly as the motivation to keep refining is no longer around his mind now.

He then went into meditation as he looked for a sword technique to be bestowed to Lu Yi and Huo Zunjie. 

...

...

"Really?" Lu Yi and Huo Zunjie almost jumped out of their seat in excitement when Qin Lan told them that their Offensive Treasure is completed.

A smile is clearly imprinted on their face when the box carrying the sword is placed before them.

The moment the Copper Xuan Sword and Silver Ling Sword are taken out from the box, a vibration soon followed. As both Offensive Treasures were refined from the same Treasure Master, a sense of kinship invisibly appeared between them.

Lu Yi's sword was sturdy and fierce, while Huo Zunjie's weapon is flexible and low-profile.

"I will also teach both of you a set of sword techniques to allow you to use the sword better. As long both of you are willing to study hard, it won't take too long for you to master the art of using a sword." Qin Lan said.

"We'll make sure to not disappoint young master and teacher's teaching!" both of them immediately cupped their hands together as the sword pointed downward.

The three of them soon made their way over to an empty space beside the farm. With the Eight Transformation Treasured Brush in his hand, Qin Lan started the lesson by teaching them the sword's basic.

"Mastering a sword is different from mastering a fist or a spear." Qin Lan began.

"A sword is an extension of your arm. Cut, Slash, Stab, and Parry are your four primary moves when using this weapon."

"Cut allowed you to leaves a precise wound on your opponent. Slash empowering your attacks. Stab allowed you to deliver a killing blow quickly. And Parry is used to defending against all kinds of attack."

"Only by mastering these four primary moves, you'll be able to understand the true meaning of sword." Qin Lan sparred with them one at a time as he imprinted the way to use a sword into them.

And a week has passed in a blink of an eye.

"Now, spar amongst yourself, and let me see at what level are your mastery with the swords." Qin Lan said.

"Yes, young master!" both of them nodded as they moved a little further from where everyone else was seated.

"Are you ready?" Lu Yi asked. His Copper Xuan Sword was pointed downward at a 45 degrees angle as he confidently stares at Huo Zunjie.

"Come at me anytime you want." Huo Zunjie replied with a smile. Two of his fingers are rested on the edges as his sword is placed in between his eyebrows.

"Golden Bell Sect's Sword Technique!" Lu Yi charged forward by launching a slash attack. Hidden in his attack is a sense of overbearing attitude that fits Lu Yi's personality.

"Silver Willow Sword Technique!" in the opposite, Huo Zunjie retaliates with an attack that seems slow to the point he was not moving from his spot.

Even Qin Fan and Qin Chan are surprised by the two sword techniques they displayed.
