"Then let's keep watching!"
Jiang Yuan did not refute, but continued to focus on forging.
After two forging processes, he completed the smelting, forging, shaping, and conduction layout. Now, the most important step remains: aggregation. He has also chosen to try to derive the weapon spirit in this step.
Only those with pure hearts can reach the pinnacle!
Jiang Yuan silently activated the Heart Nourishing Technique. A perfect Heart Nourishing Technique could enhance all skills by 10%, and he needed that 10%.
Nourishing the mind is not much different from nourishing the soul.
Of course, there's also the most important thing!
Spirit Skill - Meditation: During meditation, one percent of the maximum spiritual energy is restored per second. Duration: five minutes. Cooldown: twenty-four hours.
He planned to incorporate the Soul Artifact Skill Meditation into the aggregation process. This was the most suitable Soul Artifact Skill he had found for Ning Yanlan. Although the cooldown time was as long as a day, the recovery speed of Meditation was based on a percentage, which meant that this Soul Artifact Skill would be enough for Ning Yanlan to use for a long time.
Moreover, the function of weapon spirit skills is not limited to this. The existence of weapon spirit skills can help generate weapon spirits. This is the experience that Jiang Yuan gained from the newly generated weapon spirit of the God-Slaying Spear.
"The power of creation!"
Jiang Yuan muttered to himself that he controlled life and death and comprehended reincarnation, but he knew very little about the power of creation.
There was no time to think further; the third forging had already begun. The aggregation ability utilized the inherent properties of the materials themselves, and after being activated by him, the scepter gained several special effects in addition to its weapon spirit skill.
Speed Boost: Innate weapons enjoy a 200% energy release speed.
Damage Amplification: Innate weapons enjoy an additional 30% power bonus.
Recovery Amplification: Innate weapons enjoy an additional 50% energy recovery rate.
Self-repair property: Innate weapons have a self-repair function within a certain range of damage.
This is a characteristic inherent to the materials, and under Jiang Yuan's unique aggregation guidance, all four special effects were perfectly activated.
"Still haven't been able to activate the weapon spirit! It seems we still have to pin our hopes on weapon spirit skills."
Jiang Yuan had no time to be discouraged; he still needed to embed the weapon spirit skill and then carry out the final forging.
This time, he did not choose to use the Heavenly Eye System to inlay the weapon spirit skill into the scepter, because although the Heavenly Eye System was easy to inlay, it was too rigid and could not make the weapon develop spirituality.
In fact, weapon spirit skills need to be inlaid by the weapon forger when forging the weapon. However, Jiang Yuan's Heavenly Eye System is too abnormal, and can directly inlay or replace weapon spirit skills from the finished weapon.
When Jiang Yuan began to inlay the weapon's soul skill, his spirit and energy were highly concentrated, and his soul also began to establish a connection with the weapon embryo.
The weapon spirit usually appears when the blacksmith has poured a lot of effort into it, and the weapon naturally forms a connection with the blacksmith.
Everything has a spirit, and so do objects!
Jiang Yuan inlaid the weapon spirit skill into the scepter and began the final forging.
When the forging hammer struck the last blow, the scepter established a slight connection with him, but that connection was still too weak to form an effective weapon spirit.
"You failed!" The dwarven blacksmith was not surprised at all, because this was within his expectations.
Very few people can forge a weapon spirit during the Spirit Awakening stage; this is undoubtedly a pipe dream.
"No, I have one last move!" Jiang Yuan shook his head, holding the already formed Ice and Fire Scepter in his hand.
"Is that so?" The dwarf looked at Jiang Yuan with great interest.
Jiang Yuan took a deep breath; his final move was naturally the Elementary Enhancement Technique.
Previously, when he strengthened the Dragon Pattern Armguard and the God-Slaying Spear, there were instances where the weapon spirit skills were enhanced. Now, there might be a possibility that the weapon spirit will appear.
The definition of a weapon spirit is very vague. It does not require all weapon spirits to reach the level of a temple spirit. A weapon spirit encompasses everything, from generating simple reactions to possessing the seven emotions and six desires. These are all possible states for a weapon spirit. Jiang Yuan only needs to give this scepter basic reaction capabilities.
"Strengthening target - Ice and Fire Scepter, strengthening direction: weapon level, weapon spirit."
The basic enhancement technique deliberately gave Jiang Yuan two options, and Jiang Yuan knew which one to choose without even thinking.
"Target for enhancement: Ice and Fire Scepter. Success rate for enhancing to the Void Spirit level is 30%, for enhancing to the True Spirit level is 10%, and for enhancing to the Heavenly Spirit level is 1/1000. Required items: 1,000 points of Divine Blood Energy, 1 million Tier 9 Holy Spirit Stones!"
"What a rip-off!"
Jiang Yuan was stunned by the exorbitant price. He had never felt so short of Holy Spirit Stones. First, the Heavenly Eye said he needed ten million ninth-tier Holy Spirit Stones to advance to the Spirit-level system, and now strengthening the Ice and Fire Scepter would cost another million. It was as if the Holy Spirit Stones were flowing out of control.
"Boy, you don't have much time left. You should go back and study the power of creation!" The dwarves still admired Jiang Yuan's abilities, otherwise they wouldn't have come out to watch him forge weapons.
"Senior, don't rush, I'll try my luck!"
Jiang Yuan wasn't sure if he could succeed in the enhancement, because the success rate for this enhancement was only 40.1%, and it would be embarrassing if he failed.
"You're quite quick to understand, kid. You even know that weapon spirits also depend on luck!" the dwarven weapon-forging master praised.
The power of creation is ethereal and elusive, and it certainly cannot be separated from luck. However, the luck that the two of them are talking about is completely on different wavelengths.
"strengthen!"
With the arrow already on the bowstring, Jiang Yuan had no choice but to take the gamble.
One thousand points of divine blood energy and one million ninth-tier holy spirit stones disappeared, followed by a rapid change in the energy within the Ice and Fire Scepter.
Seeing the Ice and Fire Scepter transform once more, the dwarf blacksmith's expression became quite interesting. He murmured, "Could it be that there really is a way to continue forging the weapon spirit?"
"Ding! Enhancement successful!"
Jiang Yuan was overjoyed to hear the word "success"; he had made the right bet!
Then, filled with anticipation, he went to have the Ice and Fire Scepter appraised.
Ice and Fire Scepter (True Spirit-level Artifact Soul), Attribute Restriction: Ice and Fire, Quality: Perfect, Potential: Profound God Realm, Active Artifact Soul Skill - Meditation: Restores 1% of maximum spiritual energy per second during meditation, lasting for five minutes, Cooldown: Twenty-four hours.
Passive - Speed Boost: Innate weapons enjoy a 200% increase in energy release speed.
Passive - Damage Amplification: Innate weapons enjoy an additional 30% power bonus.
Passive - Recovery Amplification: Innate weapons enjoy an additional 50% energy recovery rate.
Passive - Self-repair: Innate weapons possess self-repair capabilities within a certain damage range.
"I'm quite lucky, it's even a True Spirit level Awakening!" Jiang Yuan was already very satisfied.
He dared not hope for a Heavenly Spirit-level artifact soul; after all, he was well aware of the one-in-a-thousand chance. In the past, he might have dared to imagine it, but ever since he'd been tricked into giving up ten minutes of Bone Secrets from the Lucky Dice, he'd given up on good luck. In fact, he strongly suspected that getting the Battlefield Soul was due to some behind-the-scenes manipulation by Lady Luck.
"A True Spirit-level Weapon Soul!" The dwarf blacksmith's lips twitched. He knew that Jiang Yuan had used improper means, but there was nothing he could do because Jiang Yuan had indeed forged a True Spirit-level Weapon Soul.
"Senior, I think I've passed the test of inheritance!"
