It feels cool to the touch, the blade is light and agile, and when swung, it emits a faint chill and frost. The words "Crimson Snow Sword" are engraved on the blade.
She hesitated for a moment before choosing this sword, but it was too beautiful and eye-catching, and she wanted to keep a low profile.
Perhaps Shi Zixue is more suitable, with her sharp and shrewd personality.
Moreover, Tu Longjian wields the spirit treasure fragment [Dry Spirit Lamp], the fire-type spirit treasure [Divine Dream Gale Halberd], the array spirit treasure [Clear Wind Frost Array], and some spiritual artifacts left behind by a fallen Golden Core cultivator.
Spiritual artifacts are not particularly valuable to her now.
Tu Longjian remembered the location of the Crimson Snow Sword and carefully put it back.
I'll tell Shi Zixue later that there's a sword here that would suit her perfectly.
Suddenly, her gaze fell on a translucent white jade flute.
"A flute to inquire about love and protect the heart." Tu Longjian turned the jade flute over and over to examine it carefully, and found a small line of words engraved on the end of the flute.
The flute's body was clear and translucent, and Tu Longjian found it quite captivating.
She also discovered several hidden weapon slots in the flute's inner lining.
Thinking of the ice needle attack technique she had devised when dealing with the snow python in the Snow Drinking Realm, she had a sudden inspiration.
Playing this flute can boost the combat power of teammates and oneself, weaken the enemy, and also has a defensive function. It is an excellent support artifact, which is perfect for her idea of hiding her strength.
The flute itself also contains a hidden weapon slot, which also serves as an attack method. She can transform spiritual energy into ice needles to launch a surprise attack at a critical moment.
With the inexhaustible supply of spiritual energy from the Ganling Lamp, the number of her hidden weapons can be described as countless.
Having made up his mind, Tu Longjian took the Heart-Protecting Flute and walked to the door of the spirit artifact storage room, saying:
"Senior brother, I've made my choice."
The heavy door slowly opened, revealing the incense sticks that were almost completely burned out.
The consul's disciple nodded, letting Shi Zixue go in, and lit a new incense stick in the incense burner.
Tu Longjian came out of the room and brushed past Shi Zixue, who was about to go in.
"Zixue, there's a magical weapon that would be perfect for you in the second-to-last weapon cabinet. You can take a look," Tu Longjian whispered to her.
"Okay, thank you." Shi Zixue nodded steadily, then entered the spirit weapon room, the door slowly closing behind her.
Wan Linyu's eyes sparkled with curiosity, but she was too embarrassed to step forward and peek at the spiritual artifacts others had chosen. She could only vaguely make out that it was a jade flute with a smooth, lustrous surface.
Tu Longjian smiled at her, raised the flute in his hand, and said, "I have chosen a flute, which is an auxiliary spiritual artifact."
There was a hint of regret in Wan Linyu's eyes, and her voice betrayed an uncontrollable disappointment:
“Auxiliary spiritual artifacts are good, but Fellow Daoist Tu and I are focused on the path of swordsmanship, so I thought Fellow Daoist Tu would choose an offensive weapon.”
Tu Longjian maintained his gentle persona, smiling softly as he said, "I was just lucky to get first place this time."
“Support artifacts are also very good; they can inspire teammates and weaken the opponent’s strength.”
"But I still need to learn how to play the flute."
Although Wan Linyu didn't understand, upon hearing her words, she immediately said enthusiastically, "I know, let me teach you."
Tu Longjian looked at her with a smile, and said softly, "Okay~"
As the upward-curving final note was played, Wan Linyu's face inexplicably flushed, and she enthusiastically began teaching the flute how to play it on the spot.
Wan Linyu thought to herself, no wonder so many people like Chunxiang, even she is a little overwhelmed.
“Fellow Daoist Tu, hold the flute like this, then blow air into the vent…”
Wan Linyu was teaching with great enthusiasm when the door suddenly opened, and Shi Zixue quietly stood in front of them.
Wan Linyu withdrew her hand from Tu Longjian's as if she had been electrocuted, her smile somewhat embarrassed.
Wait, something's not right. What's she feeling guilty about?
Shi Zixue said calmly, "I've made my choice, Fellow Daoist Wan, it's your turn."
Wan Linyu smiled, revealing two small tiger teeth, "Fellow Daoist Tu, let's leave it at that for now, I'll teach you after I've made my selection."
"Okay." Tu Longjian nodded and smiled in response.
Shi Zixue sat down next to Tu Longjian, placed the light blue longsword on her lap, and seemingly casually moved closer to Tu Longjian.
Tu Longjian noticed this and beamed, "You really chose the Crimson Snow Sword. I knew it suited you perfectly."
"Yes, it is indeed very suitable." Shi Zixue's lips curled up slightly.
Tu Longjian glanced at the incense burner out of the corner of his eye and noticed that Shi Zixue had chosen her spiritual weapon in a very short time. He was somewhat puzzled: "You chose your spiritual weapon so quickly?"
“I didn’t look at anything else, you made a good choice.” Shi Zixue gently twirled the Crimson Snow Sword, creating a beautiful sword flower in the air, and a few snowflakes scattered with the frost.
Tu Longjian was slightly shaken. She actually went straight for the Crimson Snow Sword that he had recommended, without even glancing at other spiritual weapons. She trusted him far too much.
The consul's disciple stood to the side, arms crossed, seemingly disturbed by the chill emanating from the sword's flash.
Tu Longjian and Shi Zixue offered a slight apology to the consul's disciple before returning to their seats.
“This sword is extremely suitable for the ‘Flowing Light and Flying Snow Spirit Scripture’. You have also studied this manual, so why not choose it?”
Shi Zixue's eyes held only simple confusion.
"Take it if you want it."
She handed over the Crimson Snow Sword.
Tu Longjian felt a pang of heartache; how could this innocent child keep giving so much?
Tu Longjian resolutely pushed the Crimson Snow Sword back. She raised the jade flute in her hand and said with a smile, "The sword suits you well, but I've already chosen the flute."
"We can continue to work together to fight monsters, and I'll assist you."
A hint of softness appeared in Shi Zixue's cold eyes. "Mm."
Not long after, Wan Linyu also came out after choosing her spiritual weapon.
She took Tu Longjian's advice and chose a support magic item to hang on her sword as a tassel.
After choosing their magical artifacts, the three returned to their respective residences.
As soon as you enter the courtyard, you can hear Fang Milu's chattering voice.
Fang Milu, dressed in blue, shoved Peng Nana, trying to push her out of the courtyard.
"I told you Chunxiang isn't here, so don't keep blocking the door."
Poon Na-na's long, slender legs were pointed upwards, hooking tightly around the threshold, and she crossed her arms and snorted coldly:
"I need to talk to her, so don't get in my way. I'll wait here."
"Hey, you really are a spoiled brat. Why don't you listen to others? This little courtyard is where the three of us live. I told you not to block the door, so you can't block it!"
Fang Milu puffed out her cheeks, looking as angry as a hamster with its fur standing on end.
Upon hearing this, Poonana tried even harder to break free and rush forward: "Then—I—I'll wait outside her room, that's none of your business. Get out of my way!"
"I...I'm from the same hometown as her, so stop looking for her all the time. What's your relationship with her? You used to look down on us!"
Peng Nana glanced at Fang Milu, "I shouldn't look down on Chunxiang, but you're an exception."
"You!" Fang Milu was speechless with anger.
Upon seeing this, Tu Longjian quickly stepped forward and separated the two.
"Chunxiang, you're back! She's so annoying." Fang Milu's eyes lit up.
"This little girl kept blocking me from coming in." Peng Nana raised her chin, but there was a hint of grievance in her voice.
