Chapter 1301 Knife
The eight-eyed serpent said, "Have you noticed a detail? There are more martial artists in this world than mortals."
"In our world, there are more mortals than martial artists."
Xiang Nan nodded, "Yes, I noticed when I followed Senior Mo Ling to enter the sect. The number of disciples in those sects is very large. Any second or third grade sect has a much larger number of disciples than the Haoran Sect."
The eight-eyed serpent said, "From this, it can be seen that the birth probability of martial artists in this world is far higher than ours. That means that the martial arts sects, clans, and other martial arts forces here should also be extremely large."
"What do you want to say?" Xiang Nan asked.
"Since the martial world here is so prosperous, do you think they will let go of the Endless Forest? There must be countless precious treasures in the Endless Forest."
"I think maybe the reason you entered the Endless Forest last time was because you went to the wrong place. There must be some paths carved out by human martial artists inside."
"Map!" Xiang Nan patted his forehead.
The snake said, "Right, let's find out if there is a safe area in the forest. Then, we'll follow the safe route and get as close to the World Exterminating Divine Lightning as possible. It will save us a lot of trouble."
The commoners were the most precious resources in this world. The martial artists were busy discussing the Dao and cultivating, so the other trivial matters in daily life were all left to the commoners.
Xiang Nan found a few passers-by to chat with, which confirmed this point.
In this world, martial artists never massacred civilians, and even helped civilians live a better life as much as possible.
It was like a person growing melons, fruits, and vegetables in his own courtyard. This person would never rush into the courtyard, dig out all the earthworms in the soil, slaughter them one by one, and then look up to the sky and laugh, saying how powerful he was. Isn't this a brain attack?
Obviously, the commoners in this world were earthworms.
As for martial artists in this world, they were too obsessed with martial arts. Once they stepped into the martial arts world, they would often be immersed in it for decades and centuries. Even if they took the time to talk about their children's affairs, very few people would really spend time to have children.
This made the status of civilians even more important.
At this point, Xiang Nan finally had a general understanding of the situation in the new world.
When Xiang Nan suggested that Xiang Nan purchase a map of the Endless Forest, the commoners who were chatting with him looked at Xiang Nan in astonishment. They said that the Endless Forest did not have a map at all.
The Endless Forest, as a whole, is alive, and its overall framework has been changing.
Therefore, there were only a few large martial arts forces that controlled some private routes. These routes were extremely precious and were taken over by them. It was even more impossible for them to draw maps for others to look at.
Xiang Nan was in a dilemma again. Without a map, he didn't know where to go. He didn't even know which area of the Endless Forest the Blade Mountain he saw last time was located.
"Looks like I can only think of a way to cooperate with some of the local martial arts forces." The big snake said.
"No matter what, it's best to upgrade the Nightmare Saber first." Xiang Nan soared into the sky and flew towards the Endless Forest.
He wanted to find a secluded place to refine weapons. Obviously, the Endless Forest was the best choice.
But this time, Xiang Nan wasn't stupid enough to go deep into the forest. Instead, he found a secret canyon in the border area, put away the forging furnace, and prepared to start forging.
This time, Xiang Nan did not prepare any forging materials, so he could not completely melt the entire saber and reshape it.
He could only use those World Exterminating Demons' magic crystals to forge blades and increase the power of the giant saber.
Xiang Nan took out the giant saber and threw it into the smelting furnace, then took out the magic crystals.
There were more than 2,000 World Devastating Devil Crystals. Xiang Nan first refined one to see the results. Finally, he judged that it would take about 1,200 Devil Crystals to forge the blade of the four-meter saber, which was similar to what he had imagined.
Next, it was artifact forging.
There was nothing to be said about the entire process. Xiang Nan was already proficient in forging weapons. Every time he forged his saber, he would personally forge it. No one was more familiar with the attributes of this saber than him, so it was naturally easy to forge it.
Once the powerful World Devastating Demon Crystal entered the smelting furnace, it was immediately controlled by Xiang Nan with precision and fitted onto the blade.
Afterwards, the temperature of the magic crystals was extremely high. Combined with Xiang Nan's artifact forging technique, he dissolved the blade and reforged it with the magic crystals.
As the blade sharpened, the sturdiness of the blade had to be strengthened.
Xiang Nan used 1,200 magic crystals to completely create the shape of a blade. He used another 500 magic crystals and scattered them on the blade's surface.
A mysterious idea came into his mind, and that was the formation.
He wanted to fuse the formation into the blade to increase its resistance.
The Black Tortoise Formation was sent out.
He burned through the Nightmare Saber with magic crystals to form the meridians of the formation diagram, and then filled it with melted magic crystals as the energy source of the formation.
Finally, it was the formation eye that shaped the Black Tortoise Formation, allowing the magic crystals to be used as the formation eyes, allowing the formation to completely take shape.
Even Xiang Nan couldn't help but be shocked by the new appearance of the giant saber when he came out of the cauldron.
This was an ancient black saber. It no longer had any complicated patterns on it. At first glance, it looked like an ancient saber that was incomparably black and could not even reflect light.
However, the blade was also black, but it was slightly lighter than the black of the blade. It was gray-black, and the blade patterns were wavy. The visual effect of the blade was very shocking.
As for the so-called Black Tortoise Formation, it couldn't be seen from the exterior of the blade. The formation diagram was inside the blade, and when it wasn't activated, it didn't have any warning at all.
When Xiang Nan grasped the giant saber and fused his Dipper Qi into it, the blade lit up!
The gray-black blade immediately turned incomparably hot, like a black lava that had been instantly revived!
The moment Xiang Nan released his grip, the giant saber naturally landed and fell to the ground!
The sharp blade actually pierced through the ground! The entire saber continued to sink, sinking, sinking several kilometers below the surface! The remaining Astral Qi on the straight blade dissipated, and the blade cooled down before it stopped sinking.
Xiang Nan was dumbfounded and asked in shock, "So powerful?"
The eight-eyed serpent said, "Your saber's cutting power is probably comparable to an elementary Dao Soldier's."
"However, because this saber's attributes do not possess the terrifying 'Dao' ability of a Dao Weapon, its grade should be around a high-grade profound weapon."
The most typical feature of a Dao Weapon was the Dao. For example, the Martial God Pagoda that Xiang Nan had seen on the island of exile had its own Dao luck and was heaven-defying.
As for Xiang Nan's giant saber, it only had the [Little Dao], which could activate the Dream Dao ability, so it could only be within the scope of the Profound Armament.
"Azure Dragon, come out!" Xiang Nan shouted at the ground.
Immediately after, he heard a buzzing sound under the ground. A huge black saber flew out with a clanging sound!
This saber already had the Azure Dragon Saber Spirit, so Xiang Nan only needed to summon it before he could return on his own.
"Try the sturdiness again."
Xiang Nanmao gathered his Dipper Qi and slashed down with his palm towards the blade.
With a loud bang, Xiang Nan's entire right hand was bounced back.
