Zheng Zha laughed heartily, "Exchanging items isn't something we need to rush right now. Overall, your Psychic Lash is more critical because we’ll not only face more bugs, but another team will also attack us from the shadows. Therefore, compared to any weapon of mine, this skill is more vital for team combat, hehe. If this horror movie run can earn you an A-rank side mission completion, then when we return, we’ll exchange for a Mind Control skill for you."

: Zhan Gang kept his head lowered without speaking. backslide333 Chu Xuan, however, stated, "My C-rank side mission completion is temporarily useless. Give my side mission completion to Zhan Gang, but I require Zhan Gang to give me all the reward points she gains after exchanging for the Psychic Lash. I still need to exchange for a large amount of crafting materials and tools, so the side mission completion is of little use to me right now, but the reward points will consume a great deal..." Zheng Zha looked deeply at Chu Xuan a few times. This male Zeus clearly held no intention of yielding; he genuinely didn't need the side mission completion much, at least not at this moment. Relatively speaking, he actually needed a large amount of reward points, which is why he proposed such an exchange condition.

Zheng Zha said no more and turned to Wang Xia, "Wang Xia... I know you want to learn internal cultivation techniques, but a C-rank side mission completion can only exchange for a D-rank beginner internal technique. The remaining two D-rank side mission completions are temporarily useless because we can already manufacture Plasma Grenades or landmines; exchanging for Gravity High-Power Landmines would be redundant and wasteful. So, use your C-rank side mission completion to exchange for a small Bear-type robot of C-rank lineage backslide333, and the remaining reward points can be saved or given to Chu Xuan for raw materials... Didn't you wish to learn internal cultivation? How about I teach you the Primordial Chaos Unity Art?" Wang Xia didn't argue much.

After all, he was a former soldier, although the military structure didn't bind him here.

Yet, the habit of obeying orders cultivated over a long time made him immediately agree to Zheng Zha's proposal. He was only curious and asked, "Primordial Chaos Unity Art? You can teach me that? Doesn't that require an exchange to obtain the Earth attribute?" Zheng Zha said seriously, "I’ve actually been thinking, what exactly are these enhanced Earth attributes or skills? Except for things like the Vampire Gene, which likely cannot be taught, other skills should be teachable to everyone. Of course, this is just my hypothesis.

As for whether it's correct, I can't guarantee it. How about it, Wang Xia? Shall I teach you this Primordial Chaos Unity Art? If you succeed after practicing it, then I will teach this technique to everyone else..." Whether he succeeded or not, Wang Xia was absolutely fervent about learning martial arts.

backslide333 So, he immediately agreed. Only then did Zheng Zha get the chance to begin querying the "Main God" for the weapon he intended to exchange for.

Due to his own improvement in strength, long-range technological weapons,

or long-range Legendary Magic-grade weapons were no longer suitable for him. To complement his two primary skills, "Explosion" and "Destruction,"

he needed a melee weapon that could fully unleash its power. Thus,

a melee weapon of the Legendary Magic grade became his top choice.

(In high-speed movement, the power increase for a rapier or longsword is minimal; these weapons are for thrusting. If it were a greatsword like the copy's, a heavy sabre would be better. In high-speed movement, if the speed is sufficient, the sabre doesn't even need an edge; it can simply cleave through any enemy... Decision made, I will exchange for a great sabre!) With his mind set, Zheng Zha walked beneath the "Main God," closed his eyes, backslide333 and began searching among the Legendary Magic-grade weapons available for a B-rank side mission completion. He then filtered this category for great sabre-type equipment, and immediately, hundreds of sabre-type weapons appeared before him.

(Nine Gates Soul Severing Sabre... Requires Yin-aligned internal energy to use, no... Ghost Slaying Great Sabre... Requires fierce internal energy to use, no... Azure Dragon Crescent Blade, usable with any internal energy, but its power is slightly less than sabres requiring specialized internal energy, no... Yin-Yang Sun Moon Blades, requires Ice and Fire internal energy to use...) The people around watched Zheng Zha’s face flicker as he kept his eyes shut—one moment he seemed to be smiling, the next moment quite troubled. In any case, his expression didn't look like someone exchanging for a B-rank weapon; it was more like an audience watching a parody film.

"Damn it, which one should I pick? So many ridiculous names... Zanpakutō, requires Yang-aligned internal energy to use—do they really think this is a cultivation novel? What about this one... Tiger Soul (Without White Tiger Soul)... This one looks decent."

Zheng Zha's eyes lit up. A blood-red crystalline long sabre manifested before him. backslide333 He quickly used his Captain authority to search out the subsequent versions of the Tiger Soul. One was an A-rank weapon, the Tiger Soul, explained as having half of the White Tiger Soul infused; another was a Double-A rank weapon, the Tiger Soul, explained as having the entire White Tiger Soul infused. The ultimate version of this weapon was a Double-A rank Legendary Magic-grade weapon, whose described power was only four words: Unmatched in Antiquity.

"Tiger Soul (Without White Tiger Soul), Rating 93 points. Suitable for users possessing balanced and harmonious internal energy. Requires balanced and harmonious internal energy to suppress the Tiger Soul's resentment. Weapon power is immense; internal energy can be input to form blade energy. The length and resilience of the blade energy depend on the quantity and quality of the internal energy. Requires one B-rank horror movie side mission completion and four thousand reward points."

Zheng Zha took a deep breath. This weapon seemed custom-made for him. The defining characteristic of his internal energy was its balanced harmony coupled with a lingering, endless flow, which perfectly countered the Tiger Soul’s resentment. Moreover, the ability to generate blade energy upon inputting internal energy was exactly what he needed: an extremely sharp weapon capable of cutting through anything—all characteristics the Tiger Soul possessed... "Exchange, Tiger Soul!" After making this decision, Zheng Zha slowly opened his eyes. The pillar of light cast down by the "Main God" landed directly in front of him. When the pillar of light vanished, a blood-red crystalline long sabre was planted in the ground. This weapon looked exceedingly bizarre backslide333, as it featured a visible row of bones supporting the blade within the crystal structure, with the bone ends meeting the hilt where the hand grips. The entire weapon appeared both gruesome and uncanny—veritably the coolest, deadliest weapon imaginable.

Zheng Zha reached out and grasped the hilt of the Tiger Soul. An instant chill shot up from where his hand gripped it. Simultaneously, the internal energy in Zheng Zha's Dantian surged automatically, rushing down his arm toward his palm. In a flash, the chill disappeared from his arm, and the entire Tiger Soul seemed to begin emitting a blood-red glow.

Only then did Zheng Zha let out a breath and look back at the others. They were all staring, frozen. After a long moment, Ba Wang let out a strange cry, and the hulking man from the North rushed over. He stared intently at the Tiger Soul while roaring, "Damn, that’s too cool! What’s this weapon called? Too cool! I want one just like it!" backslide333 Wang Xia was the second to approach, not because he was slow, but because he was standing farther away than Ba Wang. As soon as Ba Wang’s shout echoed, Wang Xia simultaneously asked Zheng Zha, "Is this sabre a B-rank Legendary Magic-grade weapon? It doesn't look like it. The appearance alone seems worthy of an A-rank Legendary Magic-grade weapon! It’s incredible!" Zheng Zha smiled and lifted the Tiger Soul. From the hilt to the tip, the sabre was about 1.7 meters long. Standing upright, its tip reached almost to Zheng Zha’s nose—it was indeed a long, great sabre. Its weight was estimated between ninety and one hundred kilograms; an ordinary person might struggle to lift it even with both hands. Only someone with Zheng Zha’s superior physical conditioning could swing it easily. Of course, in terms of sheer power, without internal energy channeled into the blade, it was merely an ordinary sharp weapon. Thus, it truly qualified as a Legendary Magic-grade weapon, especially one best suited for someone enhanced by internal energy.

"Let's go. We'll test this weapon's power in the basement. It took a B-rank side mission completion to acquire a Legendary Magic-grade weapon, after all; its power should be extraordinary. Let's go..." Zheng Zha was also excited. Wielding such a dashing Legendary Magic-grade weapon—any man would be thrilled beyond measure. backslide333 This is an immutable part of masculine blood.

"Um... Is this the 'Main God' Space? Wow! That sabre is so handsome!" Just as everyone was eagerly preparing to return to the basement, an unfamiliar male voice sounded. The group exchanged glances, and they suddenly remembered Luo Gandao, who was lying on the ground. Because they had been discussing attribute enhancement and item exchanges, they had largely forgotten the young man. Luo Gandao, unafraid of strangers, immediately jumped up from the ground, his eyes shining, and roared, his gaze fixed solely on the Tiger Soul. If he hadn't been somewhat distant from Zheng Zha, he might have lunged forward.

Zheng Zha coughed lightly, "You've been resurrected, Luo Gandao... Welcome to the Central Team."

Luo Gandao, who had been looking at the Tiger Soul fanatically, froze at Zheng Zha's words. backslide333 The young man pointed foolishly at himself and asked, "Resurrected? I'm resurrected? What does that mean?" Zheng Zha was about to explain, but Chu Xuan, standing next to him, spoke first, "We’ll explain the resurrection bit later. Right now, I have one question for you: you’ve always claimed you have a natural talent for piloting machinery—so... do you want to pilot a combat robot?" (To be continued) Jump to
