C185 Classification of magical equipment
Seeing the smile on Gongsun Zaitian's face, Leng Nuohan suddenly felt at ease.
"Is he the one you want to stab in the back?" Seeing that Gongsun Ze Tian had returned, Leng Nuohan touched Gongsun Ze Tian's shoulder, and after pouting in Ma Qingyuan's direction, he asked.
"Eh, how do you know that?" Gongsun Ztian asked with a surprised expression.
It's very simple. According to what you said before, the conclusion is, 'The more passionate you seem on the surface, the fiercer the stab in the back will be.' Seeing how you had such a good conversation with that Tenth Elder just now, that horse was probably in full swing. Leng Nuohan said as if she was learning from something, and from the surface, it couldn't be seen that she was affected by what happened just now.
"You ? You. You are not human! " Gongsun Ztian pretended to be shocked as he said.
"You're not human?" Leng Nuohan rolled her eyes at Gongsun Zaitian and retorted.
"You ? You are the worm in my stomach! " Gongsun Ze Tian said with an exaggerated expression.
"Pfft, you're the one that's so disgusting!" Leng Nuohan said softly, pretending to be angry.
"Well, I'm the worm in your belly!" Gongsun Ze Tian had regained his serious demeanor as he spoke.
"..."
"You don't care about their bullshit?" Gongsun Zetian paused for a moment before asking.
"You said they were bullshitting, what do I care?" Leng Nuohan replied with a smile.
"Is that all?" Gongsun Ze Tian turned to Leng Nuohan and asked.
"Because I know that you will make them pay the price for what they have said. Why should I be angry with you?" Leng Nuohan replied indifferently, as if everything that had happened earlier had nothing to do with her.
"You still understand me!" The reunion between relatives and friends has come to an end. Gongsun Zaitian smiled as he turned the page.
"The main course is coming up next. Don't you realize that the main course is just drinks and cold dishes before this?" Leng Nuohan said to Gongsun Zaitian after she obediently picked up a spoonful of food.
"I say, we can have a feast later!" Gongsun Ze Tian rubbed his hands together, preparing to sweep across the table.
"Not only is the banquet starting, there will also be an illusion show later!" Leng Nuohan continued to explain as she looked at Gongsun Ze Tian's actions.
"Illusion performance? What is that, why is illusionist still doing such a thing? " Gongsun Ztian was eating the delicacies piece by piece. Of course, she did not forget to ask this question.
"No matter how great the status of the illusionist is, in front of some great clans or large powers, they have to lower their noble heads. Some great clans will train some of the illusionist s and specifically take charge of the banquet's performance." Leng Nuohan explained. As the young miss of a large clan, she was not a 'side subject' like Gongsun Zaitian, who was more knowledgeable about this.
"What do you know how to perform?" Gongsun Ztian continued to ask.
"Most of them are singing and dancing!" Leng Nuohan thought about it and replied.
"Then why are you still looking for a illusionist, can't you just directly have a real person perform a song and dance!" Gongsun Zaitian said in confusion. He felt that doing this was a waste, or to say it was a waste of a heaven's treasure. Wasn't this the same as shooting mosquitoes with an anti-aircraft gun?
"If it's within the family or the imperial city, it wouldn't be too hard to perform at the banquet. At that time, you can go outside, or the clan can raise some people who sing and dance internally. But when outside, who would bring these performers? There were also people performing songs and dances in the city, but most of them came from brothels. How could a big family go to brothels and invite these people who were good at singing and dancing to a banquet? As a result, many great clans or powers will slowly choose illusionist as their replacement for the performance, and that is the only way that is more convenient. " Leng Nuohan explained.
"So that's how it is!" Gongsun Ze Tian suddenly realized.
As soon as Gongsun Ze Tian finished speaking, three illusionist s walked up to the center of the stage. After they bowed to the main seat, they stood in three different directions.
The three of them each took out their illusion magic tools. Everyone in the banquet hall held their breath as they focused on the center of the stage.
However, Gongsun Ztian looked at the three people in the arena with some disdain, because the power of these three people was too bad. They were probably only at the level of a low-level third or fourth level illusion technique.
"Ding ? ?" The crisp sound of a zither string resonated through the air. It was as if the string in everyone's heart was vibrating, and everyone's gaze also began to change with that faint throbbing of the heart.
"Gentle as water, light as the wind, graceful as a dance, a dream from the mortal world!" A gentle female voice suddenly sounded.
Next, a few long-sleeved and dashing beauties suddenly appeared in the center of the field. They arranged themselves in a neat row, and then a beautiful music started playing. With the sound of the music, the dancers began to move rhythmically.
Sometimes they would spin in circles, their long sleeves fluttering in the wind; sometimes they would rush forward and stop abruptly, their long sleeves swinging to the side like the bright moon in the vast sky, stirring up people's hearts.
"The three of them worked together to create such a scene. Ai, how much of a waste of time would that be?" Gongsun Ztian disdainfully said as he looked at the dancers in the arena.
"Then you're amazing, you do it! I want to see how you will perform! " Leng Nuohan said playfully to Gongsun Zaitian.
"Then wait a moment, I have a question. Be it the items used by the three people below the stage, the bell in Lu Baihuan's hand, or the sword in Ma Qingyuan's hand, they all seem to have a certain amount of energy fluctuations. Are there any differences between these items?" Gongsun Ze Tian had searched through many books, but didn't find any information related to equipment forging or treasure grade, so he took the opportunity to ask about it today. Originally, he didn't expect Leng Nuohan to understand this, but Leng Nuohan's reply afterwards made Gongsun Ze's eyes fall wide open.
"Of course there are, there are levels between weapons. Normally, weapons used by martial artists or magic tools are divided into magic tools, treasures, spiritual energy, and soul tools. Each level is further divided into four ranks, which are the lower, middle, upper, and upper ranks." Leng Nuohan replied with a smile.
Gongsun Zaitian nodded his head. According to the classification of levels, they were almost the same as the ones in Heaven Realm. This was also the case for magical equipment in the cultivation world. Above the soul equipment were the pseudo-immortal and immortal artifacts, and above that were the divine artifacts. Gongsun Zaitian had only come into contact with divine artifacts of this level, so he wasn't very clear about what level was above that.
"Magic tools are the lowest level of existence and contain a small amount of spiritual energy. In the eyes of ordinary people, magical equipment are already considered divine weapons, but in the eyes of cultivators like us, it's nothing more than a weapon used by low-level warriors or illusionist. Just like the three people in the center of the field who are currently using top-grade magical equipment. " Leng Nuohan continued to explain.
"Then what about the one that Lu Baihuan used?" Gongsun Zaitian continued to question.
"From the fluctuations of spirit energy, what he is using should be treasure type. However, the exact rank can only be seen when he is using it. Normally, a treasure would contain a large amount of spirit energy, which is a type of treasure or weapon that can assist one in battle. Similarly, what Ma Qingyuan used was also a treasure! " Leng Nuohan explained in detail.
"Then what about spirit artifacts and soul weapons?" Gongsun Ztian asked once again.
"It's extremely rare to see these two kinds of treasures on this continent. Usually, only extremely talented warriors or illusionist s would have one or more Spirit Treasures, as for Spirit Weapons, I have never heard of them before! Perhaps it is only in the legends! " As Leng Nuohan finished speaking, a mischievous look flashed past her eyes, but she quickly returned to normal.
Leng Nuohan had seen more than just soul tools, she had even seen treasures above that. Soul equipment, in Leng Nuohan's eyes, was an existence that was not on the stage at all.
"Oh? Spirit Weapon is a legendary existence here? " Gongsun Ztian asked.
"A Spirit Treasure is a type of auxiliary attack or defense that can draw upon the spirit energy of the world, but according to its quality, the amount of spirit energy it carries is also divided into several parts. It is difficult for a large portion of spirit energy to contain more than two times the amount of spirit energy in the world. Soul weapons are extremely rare, because the prerequisite to becoming a soul weapon is for the weapon or treasure to have its own soul. Only magic weapons with soul weapons can contain more of the spirit energy of the heaven and earth and change it for its own use. " Leng Nuohan continued to explain to Gongsun Ze Tian in detail.
"If that's the case, does it mean that it's difficult for artificers on the continent to refine a soul weapon?" Gongsun Ztian asked.
"It's not that difficult. Rather, they are simply unable to be refined. Most of them are unable to do anything. However, even if they know how to refine them, I'm afraid that they would still find it very difficult to do so." Leng Nuohan did not explain in detail. It was not that she did not know, but she did not wish to.
There were only two ways to refine a soul tool: one was to cultivate it, and the other was to seal it. To cultivate it, one would need the artifact soul to willingly enter the top quality spirit energy. Moreover, it would need a very long time to grow. Only then would it be able to become a soul weapon. Sealing it would require the souls of over ten thousand artifacts to undergo a special nurturing, allowing them to devour each other and create the strongest artifact spirit, thus sealing it within the treasure. This method was comparatively faster.
However, in the long run, the soul cultivated would be even more powerful and would fit the master the best. After all, the most suitable soul was still the best. As for the artifact spirit that was forcefully sealed, because of the existence of a large amount of resentment, it was very difficult for it to have a tacit understanding with its master. As a result, its power was greatly reduced.
Only high-level cultivators with strength above the eighth level would be able to cultivate to a stand-alone spirit body. Only this kind of spirit body would be able to be specially refined, erase memories, and raise a spirit body, and this kind of spirit body would require tens of thousands, or even hundreds of thousands, to be able to form a single spirit weapon. If he really did so, how ruthless would his methods be?
However, wanting such a spirit body to voluntarily erase its memories and enter into a treasure or weapon was an extremely impossible task. Just by thinking about it, one would know that for cultivators above the eighth level, they have their own dignity. How could they be willing to do such a thing?
However, after a treasure above the immortal grade was successfully refined, it needed to be refined by heavenly tribulation. During the process of refinement, it would automatically form a spirit body within the treasure, and after a long period of time, the spirit body would grow into a powerful artifact spirit.
"You know how to forge artifacts?" Gongsun Ztian suddenly asked.
"I know a bit, but I can't refine it!" Leng Nuohan replied.
"Alright! With your eyesight, you should be able to tell the true use of this bracelet in your hands, right? " Gongsun Ze Tian looked at Leng Nuohan with a bit of playfulness as he spoke.
"Hehe, I will not be able to hide this from you for long. I do know its true purpose! " Leng Nuohan laughed, and extended his hand to caress the bracelet as he spoke.
"Then, how about you evaluate the grade of this item?" Gongsun Ztian said indifferently.
"Mm, this item is a bit different, it cannot be ranked according to the regular grade. Let's put it this way, it can only be considered as top quality spirit energy, but once it is activated, it will possess a strength of at least a low-grade spirit weapon. A spirit weapon without a spirit artifact isn't exactly a spirit weapon, so it can't be classified according to the regular grade." Leng Nuohan replied after thinking about it.
"En!" Gongsun Ze Tian softly 'yes' for a moment, then quickly sank into his own thoughts.
