With a flick of his wrist, Lin Xiuyuan grasped the Falling Hammer, its entire body jet black, seemingly forged from iron.
At this moment, several radiant runes were flashing on it, each representing a forbidden spell.
They are suppressing the marks left by the two heroes of Xixia!
"To fully master it, it will only take a few years to slowly erase the marks left by the two heroes of Xixia..."
Lin Xiuyuan observed the situation and found the result acceptable.
After all, the two had wielded the Falling Hammer for many years, and their marks were deeply ingrained. Moreover, one of them was at a higher level than him, making it naturally more difficult to erase them.
Next, Lin Xiuyuan tried operating the Falling Hammer.
Now that the marks of the two heroes of Xixia have been suppressed, and the opponents are too far away to affect the Falling Hammer in the slightest.
Lin Xiuyuan was able to initially utilize some of his power.
Only when the mark is completely erased can it be fully mastered.
"boom!"
With just a little magic power infused and one or two-tenths of its power activated, a magnificent aura surged forth, containing immense force. Under Lin Xiuyuan's divine control, it roared through the air, producing bursts of booming sounds.
"As expected, this treasure is rather simple, pure power..."
Lin Xiuyuan nodded slightly; he wasn't surprised by this.
The functions of rare treasures are usually quite singular. Whether they are offensive or auxiliary treasures, like the Demon Purification Bottle, they only have the function of purifying demonic energy, and have no other mysteries.
Magical artifacts possess various mysterious transformations. Apart from being purely weapons of destruction, most magical artifacts can be used for both offense and defense, and also have miraculous effects such as imprisonment and refining.
For example, the Wind-Fixing Token in my hand can generate tornadoes or wind blades, or manipulate wind forces and other changes. I believe that it had many more mysterious evolutions in the hands of its original owner, but the source has been lost and the effect is almost fixed.
Aside from the means of using them, this is the biggest difference between rare treasures and magical treasures.
However, each has its own unique features. For example, the power of the Demon-Purifying Bottle is unmatched by ordinary magic weapons. And the power of this extraordinary treasure, the Falling Mountain Hammer, is comparable only to the killing weapons of sword cultivators.
Lin Xiuyuan was extremely satisfied with this.
This is a rare treasure that no amount of spirit stones could buy; it is undoubtedly the biggest unexpected gain of this trip!
Such a rare treasure would be something even a Golden Core cultivator wouldn't hesitate to fight for.
"It seems that if I successfully refine it and leave a mark to control it, it will become the most powerful offensive method I have at this stage..."
"Our fighting style might need some adjustments. While the Falling Hammer is powerful, it's too slow and the charging time is a bit too long..."
A thoughtful look flashed across Lin Xiuyuan's eyes, but he didn't think too much about it. He put the Falling Hammer into his Qiankun Bag and spent his spare time refining it, erasing the mark, and mastering it.
For now, the priority is recovery.
Using some miraculous elixirs can naturally reduce the recovery time for the side effects of mystical talismans.
Lin Xiuyuan then took out a few pills and began to swallow them, slowly refining them.
...
The subsequent situation unfolded as expected.
Waiting for a reply.
The loose cultivator alliance was shaken.
"What? Three teams were wiped out in such a short time?"
"Those Purple Mansion cultivators all perished; not a single one escaped?"
When Ku Xuan Sanren learned of this news, he was filled with surprise.
Xue Yuanzi and You Qing Daoren, who were standing to the side, were also shocked.
"Could it be that the Cloud Soaring Sect still has hidden forces?"
Daoist Youqing's face was grim.
This plan was proposed by him.
Logically speaking, the people of the Cloud Soaring Sect were all in the stronghold, and their numbers were more than ten times that of the others.
They are completely under suppression!
There is certainly no power available to spare to support those resource-rich areas in the rear.
At that time, they will completely surround the Yunxiao Sect's stronghold and slowly eliminate it.
But now... it seems the Cloud Soaring Sect truly lives up to its reputation as a large power; it's not as simple as it appears, and it possesses hidden strength!
And it's quite terrifying!!
So many rogue cultivators, so many cultivators at the Purple Mansion stage, just like that, they've all perished?!
It's utterly unbelievable!
Xue Yuanzi said angrily, "If I had known, I would have gone myself. I didn't expect there to be hidden forces. Damn it!!"
Ku Xuan Sanren shook his head and said, "If the other party finds out that you have made a move, then Yunxiao's two protectors, or that person from the Ge family, will also take action."
Then, Ku Xuan Sanren sighed and said, "I wonder who made the move? Could there be a third peak Purple Talisman Protector? It seems so. Only someone like Protector Yunxiao could have such combat power!"
"Otherwise, with so many Purple Mansion cultivators, even those in the late stage, and figures like the Twin Heroes of the West Gorge, ordinary peak Purple Mansion cultivators would never have been left without a chance to escape!"
Ku Xuan Sanren shook his head and then said, "It seems that we still have no choice but to launch a frontal attack. They can't hold out for long. We have so many people and we won't lack spiritual resources in the short term. Let's proceed cautiously!"
If even more personnel had been lost this time, it would have shaken the very foundation of the operation!
For the next few days...
After this incident, the Loose Cultivator Alliance dared not take any more risks.
I dare not rush it anymore.
Continue with a steady and methodical approach, gradually breaching this stronghold and crushing the Cloud Soaring Sect!
They resumed their previous direct confrontation.
Several more days passed quickly.
By this time, the resource areas in the rear had been almost completely defended, and the transportation and storage of resources were nearly complete.
