As the two belts of Heaven and Earth Spiritual Aura entered the Dragonâs Edge, Chen Xiaobei could feel faint Spirituality swelling though the hand that grabbed the hilt.
âThe Dragon Edgeâs Spirituality is almost the same as a Three-star Earth-God Instrument, which makes it almost the same level as the Heavenly Sword!â Chen Xiaobei noted with excitement.
Because the dragon swords did not have Spirituality, the Spiritual Aura they produced was substandard when compared to real Immortal Instruments.
Chen Xiaobeiâs initial expectation was to recover the Dragonâs Edgeâs Spirituality to a Three-star Earth-God Instrument. He would have been very contented with that result. He did not expect his Dragonâs Edge to reach three-stars so swiftly, not mentioning that it was still progressing!
That was way beyond his expectations.
âItâs still growing - that must have something to do with the Living Soil!â Chen Xiaobei assumed. âI didnât use a lot of it or the Dragonâs Edge might have just rocketed to a Four-Star Earth-God level!â
The Dragonâs Edge itself was an indestructible Divine Item.
Along with the awakening of its Spirituality, the Dragon Edgeâs Special Ability was incited and gradually arrived at its corresponding level.
For now, the Dragonâs Edge was an Earth-God instrument between a three-star and four-star.
In a fight against an enemy with weapons of the same grade, it was very likely for Chen Xiaobei to have the upper hand!
This was because the Dragonâs Edgeâs Special Ability had been set in motion!
âLetâs see what Special Ability it is that you have!â Chen Xiaobei held the saber in both hands eagerly.
After a brief Spiritual Connection, Dragonâs Edge recognized Chen Xiaobei as its master.
Unless Chen Xiaobei was killed in a battle, or unless he chose to cut off their Spiritual Connection, no one else could control the Dragonâs Edge.
Everything about the Dragonâs Edgeâs Special Ability â its usage, effects, consumption - downloaded into Chen Xiaobeiâs mind.
He could wield the Dragonâs Edge Special Ability as long as he had enough Spiritual Stones.
âWow! This Special Ability is terrific! I want to give it a try but itâs now a Three-star Earth-God Instrument. Each use will cost me 100 million low-grade Spiritual Stones! Thereâs no enemy for me to fight⊠I shouldnât be wasting Spiritual StonesâŠâ
âMaster, you can just use Spiritual Qi from the Spiritual Channel!â reminded Wugui Kojiro.
âOh, yeah! I almost forgot about that! I have something for that!â Chen Xiaobei reached into his Infinite Space Ring and took out the Green Jade Gourd.
The gourd siphoned Spiritual Qi from the underground Spiritual Channel like a whale gulping seawater.
He had thought that Chen Xiaobei to use the Dragonâs Edge to take in the 100 million Spiritual Qi to fuel it. Chen Xiaobei, however, did more than just that, using the Green Jade Cauldron to take away almost 30 billion low-grade Spiritual Stones.
During the 30 days period of cultivating, Chen Xiaobei had already used up 72 billion low-grade Spiritual Qi.
The Spiritual Channel ran through the entire imperial city and would require time to circulate.
The one that was located under the secret room had been sucked dry but that did not stop Chen Xiaobei. He continued to take from the Spiritual Channel until there was virtually no Spiritual Qi left underground.
âDone!â Chen Xiaobei gave Wugui Kojiro a satisfied smile.
Wugui Kojiro just stared at his master. All that Spiritual Qi could last the Tenshou palace ten years, and Chen Xiaobei took it all away in one go.
In the years to come, the Tenshou would have no Spiritual Qi to use at all. They might as well be a wasteland.
Ding Ring Ring!
Someone was calling Chen Xiaobei.
It was Liu Xuanxin.
âHuh? My Lucky Goddess?â Chen Xiaobeiâs face lit up. âI havenât heard from her since Bei Xuan faction took over Atlantis - thatâs almost four months now. Why would she be calling me all of a sudden?â
âXiaobei! HelpâŠâ Liu Xuanxin began but the call was suddenly cut short.
âWhat happened?!â Chen Xiaobei shouted into the phone. âThat was Lucky Goddessâ voice. Itâs not like her to crack jokes like this⊠Something serious must have happenedâŠâ
Chen Xiaobei quickly dialed her number but he was informed by the operator that there was no signal and that the call could not be connected.
He decided to try Long Zishan but to no avail.
Then he tried Liu Xuanxinâs grandfather and bother. They picked up his call but none of them knew where she was.
Panic began to set in. âSomething must have happened to her. But I donât know where she is. How am I supposed to save her?â
This was beginning to be a real big problem.
Even if he used Godâs Eye Talisman, there was a limit to how far it could see. He did not even have an approximate area that he could narrow down to find her.
In the past, all of Chen Xiaobeiâs quests have been straightforward and untroubled.
This time, however, Chen Xiaobei was completely at a loss as to what to do.
Perhaps this had something to do with his extremely low luck.
As Lady Nuwo said, luck was crucial.
At critical junctures, the prosperity or decline of a personâs luck could decide the success or failure of an undertaking.
After racking his brains and coming up with nothing, Chen Xiaobei looked at Wugui Kojiro and asked, âDo you have any idea how I can hike up my luck?â
This Japanese devil may have become Chen Xiabeiâs loyal hound but he was a wicked man before this. Killing him would earn Chen Xiaobei merit points and increase his luck.
Wugui Kojiro shrank under Chen Xiaobeiâs icy gaze like a frightened tortoise.
No. Chen Xiaobei shook his head. The luck he would earn from killing this loyal hound may not be effective immediately.
Liu Xuanxin was in grave danger, and every second counted.
Chen Xiaobei opened the Merit Points Ledger.
âForget it! Merit Points Ledger, Iâd like to make a trade for a Lucky Charm.
As long as he had enough merit points, Chen Xiaobei could exchange for anything inside the ledger.
The only thing was, Shen Gongpao had absolute control of the ledger. So, if Chen Xiaobei were to make an exchange, he would be charged ten times more than usual - that was why he had never used it before this.
But this was an emergency! Chen Xiaobei did not have the time to bargain with the God of Luck.
Using his merit points to exchange for a Lucky Charm was the fastest solution to his problem.
