Chapter 206: Fusion of the Divine Weapon
In the late afternoon, the afterglow of the setting sun streamed through the window, illuminating the entire room brightly. Sun Zhe sat quietly on his bed, his eyes gazing faintly ahead. Although he had concealed the Lightning Symbol on his forehead, an invisible aura of pressure emanated from him, as if his temperament had undergone a qualitative change.
"I didn't expect Zhuang Ruoxuan to become the Saintess of the Sword Pavilion... But what does that have to do with me? Hmph, truly an unreasonable fellow..."
Recalling the words spoken by Sword Flood outside the Thunder Tower, Sun Zhe couldn't help but frown again. At this moment, he remembered a saying: most people are born with a certain obsession, and among those he knew, Sword Flood was undoubtedly the most prominent example. He was exceptionally talented but had an incredibly stubborn mindset.
Once such a person fixated on something, it was difficult to change their mind. Thinking of this made Sun Zhe feel a sense of frustration rising within him.
"Forget it, there's no need to think about him. When soldiers come, I will block them; when water comes, I will dam it. Even if he dares to take action, what do I have to fear?"
With that thought, Sun Zhe closed his eyes again and fell back into contemplation.
Although he had comprehended the Thunder Dragon Pattern and gained recognition from the Thunder Law, the Thunder Dragon stone tablet held more than just that. The true mysteries lay deep within its patterns. As he slowly contemplated further, Sun Zhe would deepen his understanding of the Thunder Law until he reached mastery.
As for what Great Mastery of the Laws would entail, Sun Zhe dared not imagine. At least, someone as powerful as Xiang Yuanqiu had not yet reached that level. Whether Elder Hai, the Super Strong Being guarding the Thunder Tower, had achieved Great Mastery remained unknown to Sun Zhe.
In his meditation, the mysterious stone tablet once again imprinted itself in his mind. Everything he had previously comprehended came rushing back to him. Intricate lines of profound mystery began to outline in his thoughts, each line representing a thread of insight. As he grasped more and more mysteries, the Thunder Law became clearer in his heart.
Unbeknownst to Sun Zhe, as he delved deeper into his understanding, the Lightning Symbol on his forehead began to shimmer once more. Purple light filled the room, and a dense aura of Thunder Might enveloped everything. As Sun Zhe's comprehension deepened, the presence of the Lightning Symbol gradually intensified.
Time passed second by second; day turned into night without him noticing. Three days slipped by in this manner. After three days, Sun Zhe opened his eyes again. As he slowly lifted his eyelids, two flashes of brilliant purple radiance flickered in his gaze.
"Comprehending Law is indeed not that simple... In these three days, I have recalled all insights from within the Thunder Tower; beyond this point, it has become increasingly difficult."
Sun Zhe sighed helplessly. Without the reference of the Thunder Tower stone tablet, his comprehension dropped dramatically—by more than ten times. What was once easily understood now became challenging; every subsequent insight required much more time to grasp.
Just like cultivation itself, understanding Law becomes progressively harder as one advances; it is entirely normal for one to spend decades without gaining even a sliver of insight at higher levels. Achieving Great Mastery is even more challenging.
Thinking this way, Sun Zhe decided to abandon further contemplation for now. With only about twenty days left before returning to Nine Continents Mainland, he needed to focus on enhancing his strength to prevent any unforeseen circumstances. Besides his own cultivation and comprehension of Law, external forces were also essential for improvement.
With a wave of his right hand, several extremely rare ores suddenly appeared in front of him, which were among the items that Sun Zhe had instructed Zhao Ang to purchase that day.
"Come out, Yin Huai."
As soon as Sun Zhe's voice fell, a black figure immediately appeared before him. A chilling aura emanated from this shadow, causing the temperature in the entire room to drop significantly and adding a sense of coldness. This black figure was none other than the Yin Huai Iron Corpse, which had already reached the early stage of Thunder Lord.
Looking at the Yin Huai Iron Corpse shrouded in a ghostly aura, Sun Zhe nodded in satisfaction. Although this Yin Huai Iron Corpse had no effect during the Arena Competition, it would be a powerful weapon in real combat. If an opponent suddenly found a Thunder Lord level expert appearing behind them during a fight, it would certainly be an impressive feeling. The Yin Huai Iron Corpse was indeed an important asset for Sun Zhe.
With a sweep of his sleeve, the ores immediately appeared in Sun Zhe's right hand. His fingers curled slightly, and purple Thunder Power surged forth, enveloping the ores in brilliant purple light.
Under Sun Zhe's full effort to refine them, the ores gradually transformed into liquid. With another wave of his right hand, the colorful ore liquid shot into the body of the Yin Huai Iron Corpse, slowly merging with it. Sun Zhe focused his mind, and the Yin Huai Iron Corpse once again vanished into darkness.
The refining of the Yin Huai Iron Corpse required long-term and persistent effort; it could not be rushed. Of course, this refining process was also costly. Given Sun Zhe's current financial situation, he could probably only refine the Yin Huai Iron Corpse to the mid-stage of Thunder Lord. As for materials needed for further refinement to the later stages, Sun Zhe was still unsure where to find them.
After refining the Yin Huai Iron Corpse, Sun Zhe let out a gentle sigh. With another wave of his right hand, two more items appeared before him: one was his weapon—the North Star Blade—and the other was Tulin's weapon—the Eastern Lance.
During the final round of the Selection Trial, Sun Zhe fought against Tulin. Tulin believed that his strength could easily defeat Sun Zhe and proposed a wager. However, he did not expect that Sun Zhe would become the ultimate winner due to his tenacious will. In front of everyone, Tulin could not go back on his word; thus, his beloved weapon naturally became part of Sun Zhe's collection.
Grasping the black spear before him, an intense chill immediately surged into his heart as if he had plunged into icy depths. He felt completely awake and sensed a change in his state of mind; fierce light suddenly radiated from Sun Zhe's eyes.
"Indeed worthy of being transformed from a Divine Blade Fragment; it has the ability to calm one's mind and soul. Its miraculous properties are no less than those of the North Star Blade."
Sun Zhe's North Star Blade was also extraordinary; it greatly reduced his spiritual power consumption and allowed him to unleash far greater power than ordinary weapons when striking with it. Cutting through iron like mud and being indestructible were merely routine for it. Similarly, the Eastern Lance, also transformed from a Divine Blade Fragment, surely possessed its own wonders; just its ability to calm one's mind and soul was enough to impress Sun Zhe.
"Two Divine Weapons originating from the same source should definitely fuse without issue. Tulin must have intended this as well; since that's the case, I'll help him fulfill his wish..."
A hint of self-satisfaction appeared at the corner of Sun Zhe's mouth. Tulin had tried to cheat but ended up losing out; he must be quite pleased with acquiring this Eastern Lance.
Gripping the North Star Blade in his left hand and holding onto the Eastern Lance with his right hand, any excitement on his face vanished and was replaced by a serious expression. Both weapons were extraordinary; Sun Zhe could not afford to damage either.
Controlling both weapons with his hands slowly brought them closer together as Thunder Power completely enveloped them. Should anything unexpected happen, he would immediately use Thunder Power to separate them.
At the moment when the two weapons made contact, unlike the clash of energies during battles in the Arena, both weapons simultaneously emitted a blinding Black Radiance, and even the names inscribed on them began to flicker.
The words "North Star" on the blade shone brightly, while "Eastern Lance" on the spear radiated Divine Radiance, filling the entire room with a surge of destructive power.
Sun Zhe's expression changed drastically. Without hesitation, he unleashed his Spirit Domain. After gaining recognition from the Thunder Law, Sun Zhe's Spiritual Artifact became much more solidified. Although it still couldn't bind solid objects like a domain could, it was more than capable of restraining energy. The destructive energy immediately surged within Sun Zhe's Spirit Domain.
At the same time, the two weapons began to merge slowly. According to Sun Zhe's thoughts, the North Star Blade did not dissolve, while the Eastern Lance transformed into a mass of black liquid that flowed into the North Star Blade. As more and more liquid poured in, the North Star Blade began to change gradually, its aura growing stronger and even resembling that of the Eight-Foot Divine Blade.
After nearly a cup of tea's worth of time, the two Divine Weapons finally completed their fusion. Sun Zhe slowly dispersed his Spirit Domain, but beads of sweat appeared on his forehead. Although he had only restrained the raging energy, the danger was no less than that of a great battle. A slight misstep could have turned the entire tavern into ruins, resulting in countless innocent casualties.
As the light gradually faded, a brand new Black Long Knife appeared in Sun Zhe's right hand. The length of the blade clearly exceeded seven feet, yet it still fell short of eight feet. A faint black glow flickered along its surface, and a fierce light danced along the edge. The aura emanating from this Long Sword far surpassed that of the original North Star Blade.
Slowly standing up, as he tightened his grip on the hilt, a cool and frosty sensation spread through his right hand and throughout his body. Sun Zhe's mind became exceptionally clear. Upon closer inspection of the Long Sword in his hand, he noticed two words inscribed on its blade: "Eastern Lance," with "North Star" beside it.
"What... what is going on? Does this knife have two names?"
Sun Zhe incredulously touched the two names engraved on the blade but felt no unevenness; it was clear that both names were integrated with the Long Sword.
