Translator: 549690339

This Treasured Sword, when grasped in the hand, was extremely fitting, even seemingly merging with the arm to become one, and when slashing, it truly moved as if it were an extension of the body.

Master Ous forging skills are top-notch, and I really like this blade. Here are nine Silver Money, thank you for the discount. If theres anything you need in the future, Ill definitely patronize your store.

Qin Niu had acquired a handy Treasured Sword that could slice through iron as if it were mud, and naturally, he was overjoyed.

He was filled with gratitude towards Master Ou and his disciple.

Haha, young brother, as long as you like it! All good swords need nurturing. My forging it was merely giving it life. If you can nurture it well, it will certainly help it rise to another level and may even develop a spirit.

Master Ou, in his happiness, offered an important piece of advice.

This is the crystallization of your and your disciples hard work; naturally, 1 will take extra good care of it. But I do not know the methods of nurturing a blade, so please enlighten me.

Qin Niu had also seen the occasional mention of nurturing swords and blades in books.

It was said that if a weapon developed a spirit, its might could be enhanced tenfold.

Some had even nurtured their treasured swords into sword pills, capable of slashing foes from thousands of miles away.

He dared not even contemplate such a level of cultivators realm at the moment.

As long as he could use this blade to kill a few wolves and bears, ensuring meat for every meal, he would be more than content.

There are countless methods of nurturing weapons and no fixed way. Some place their weapons in cold and gloomy places night after night, eventually nurturing a Frost Sword. A swing of the sword would cover a three-meter radius with frost, and the stronger the cultivators cultivation, the larger the area the frost could cover when wielding it. Some soak their Treasured Swords in fresh blood daily and eventually nurtured a Blood-Draining Demon Blade, capable of draining an enemys blood directly upon contact, due to the blades bloodthirsty nature

Master Ou gave two examples that left Qin Nius imagination running wild.

Nurturing weapons to give them special abilities was truly enticing.

This reminded him of the nest of Termites he was raising.

After feeding them bear blood, he had nurtured Worker Ants and Soldier Ants with great strength. It seemed there was some commonality in the principles of the world.

The first two examples are of weapons that were particularly successfully nurtured, a rarity among tens of thousands of weapons, so dont get your hopes up too high. But as long as you nurture your weapon well, when it can understand your intentions, it could significantly amplify your combat power. In essence, you can slowly learn to understand it through using this blade. Once you know its characteristics, nurturing it will no longer be difficult. Just go with its nature.

The advice Master Ou gave on nurturing blades was invaluable.

Qin Niu committed it to memory, thanked him, and left the weaponry store.

Even as he entered the Talisman shop, he was still excited at heart, determined to understand the attributes of his Treasured Sword and strive to nurture it well upon his return.

A weapon is akin to a tigers teeth; it is a lethal tool in battle, and its importance is self-evident.

Talisman shops were scarce; the entire Cultivation Market had only six or seven.

The one Qin Niu frequented was run by a pair of grandparents and their grandchild.

Bei Bing has Talismans.

That was the name of the store, strange yet intriguing.

Please hand me a Low-grade Contract Charm!

The quality of the Talismans produced by this shop was very good. He had used three already, each time they worked successfully and without any mishaps.

Inferior Contract Talismans often risked harming the user or the pet they aimed to subdue during use.

Because they established a soul contract and affected the bearers spirit.

Hmm!

A young girl with an ordinary appearance, but an extraordinary aura, walked out from inside.

She looked about eighteen or nineteen years old, very young.

Dressed in a loose brown linen robe, she wrapped her slender body inside, making the dress appear hollow.

The only area that looked somewhat substantial was the chest.

She was a mute girl.

Her long hair simply cascaded freely down her back.

Those in the Talisman industry seemed to revere nature, disliking the numerous complex conventions of the world.

She was barefoot, so there was hardly any sound as she moved.

Are you the only one tending the shop today? Please hand me a Low-grade Contract Charm.

Qin Niu was considered a regular customer.

The mute girl smiled in greeting, using hand gestures, and then pointed to the Low-grade Contract Charms inside the counter.

Taking out one, she placed it in a wooden box and handed it to Qin Niu.

I hope theres no mistake here, right? If you gave me a mid-grade Contractual Talisman by accident, dont blame me when your grandfather scolds you!

After paying the Silver Money, Qin Niu took it and examined it closely.

Every stroke was meticulously detailed, even neater than if it had been stamped from a mold.

A faint glow circulated on its surface.

This was a sign of a good talisman.

A talisman without this glowing flow was defective and couldnt be activated.

Yiyiyaya

She laughed and scolded in response, her hands gesturing in sign language, but no one could understand what she was saying.

Hehe, 1 know youre especially smart and definitely wouldnt have gotten it wrong. Just teasing you.

It was only in front of these pure-hearted people that Qin Niu felt willing to engage in warm conversation.

He couldnt quite explain it, but he just liked it.

Dealing with such people was like a breath of spring air, very relaxing and comfortable.

Its getting late; I need to hurry and leave the city, goodbye!

Qin Niu waved at her with a smile.

Now he only had twenty-three Wen Money left on him, and he still needed to spend three to buy something for Er Dan to eat.

Er Dan had helped him pass a message to Xie Laizi, which was a big favor.

It was also a crucial part of his plan against Xie Laizi and Wang Haikun. He wouldnt forget what he had promised Er Dan.

Mmm!

The mute girl waved at him and took out a low-grade Contract Charm from behind the counter to catch up with him.

She approached Qin Niu and took the wooden box from his hands.

Could she be exchanging it for another one?

Qin Niu looked at her, puzzled.

All he saw was her carefully placing the second talisman into the wooden box, then closing it and handing it back to Qin Niu.

As she drew nearer, Qin Niu caught a very subtle floral scent.

It was a bit like jasmine and a bit like rose, hard to describe.

The scent was comforting.

Are you giving me a talisman as a gift?

Qin Niu asked, looking into her eyes.

All ah!

She nodded her head vigorously.

Arent you afraid your grandfather will scold you for giving away such an expensive thing?

Mmm!

She shook her head vigorously, waving her hands as if not afraid, or perhaps trying to tell Qin Niu her grandfather wouldnt scold her.

Why would you think to give such a valuable gift to me?

Qin Niu certainly didnt flatter himself into thinking that she had taken a fancy to him.

Her gaze was clear, friendly, with no hint of romantic interest.

She seemed like an untainted, holy and secluded orchid.

Yingya yingya

She explained, seeming to know Qin Niu might not understand, and simply stretched out her index finger to hook it with Qin Nius finger and gave it a shake.

This time, Qin Niu understood.

Hehe, youre saying we are friends, so you want to give me a talisman, right?

Mhmm!

She nodded vigorously, her face beaming with a pure and happy smile..
