Chapter 439: Chapter 166: Chen Chang’an forcibly engraves the Dao with divine energy!_2
But this was just the beginning.
Below, Chen Chang’an had started the next process,
Inscription of prohibitions!
There are fifty Great Daos, of which the Heaven has evolved forty-nine!
Though a weapon, a weapon also has its corresponding levels.
In the mortal world, all weapons have grades.
Weapons without prohibitions are called mortal instruments, regardless of how powerful they are, they’re just ordinary weapons, only able to reign supreme in the mundane world.
If brought to the Cultivation World, they’re treated as insignificant.
But when the weapon comes with prohibition, it is collectively referred to as a Dao instrument.
Even among the Dao instruments, there are different classifications.
From one to nine prohibitions, they are referred to as ordinary Dao instruments.
This level of Dao instruments is not very powerful and is usually sufficient for cultivators from the first to fourth realms.
The next level of Dao instruments contains ten to sixteen prohibitions.
This level of Dao instruments is also known as Sovereign instruments, secretly referring to the divine or Dao Lord of the Six Realms.
The typical users of Venerate instruments are the Divine Hidden cultivators of the Fifth Realm to the Dao Lord Great Cultivators of the Six Realms.
The next level is quite broad.
This level is called Saint Weapon.
In this world, any Dao instrument possessing sixteen to thirty-six prohibitions can be referred to as a Saint Weapon.
At the Saint Weapon level, its power is significantly increased.
Many Saint Weapons have their own awakened spirits, they merge with the owner’s consciousness.
Some even defend the owner’s honor after their death or bless their offspring.
When Mao Ruxue went to Sword Mountain, the Immortal Sword she brought back was a Saint Weapon.
However, that was just born, with only seventeen or eighteen prohibitions, not very powerful.
But even so, it was extraordinary.
Inside that sword, an inheritance of a Sword Master exists!
Even though it’s incomplete, it’s extremely powerful!
The next stage after Saint Weapon is Dao Weapon.
Dao Weapon, a general term for weapons with more than thirty-six prohibitions.
In this world, those who are qualified to refine Dao Weapons have to be at least at the Heavenly Venerate level.
Other cultivators, even if they are the Daoist Master of the Eighth Realm, can’t touch this category of instruments!
But even the Heavenly Venerates do not stand much chance of successfully refining a Dao weapon!
Even if they manage to refine it, the prohibitions would definitely not exceed forty!
A Dao weapon with more than forty prohibitions, under the vast sky, can only be refined by the Grand Heavenly Venerate or the detached Tenth Realm Saints!
Okay, I’ve digressed.
Chen Chang’an refocused his gaze and put his attention back on the Dao embryo in front of him.
Boom~!
The next moment, he slapped it.
Hum hum hum~!
Then, a humming sound was heard. When it calmed down, the originally white jade-like Dao embryo had an extra palm print.
That wasn’t just a simple palm print.
Underneath it, strange runes appeared.
Within the runes, Dao was hidden, it was akin to a Great Scholar sitting at the end of the world, extremely terrifying.
The Confucian Path, the most magnificent Dao amongst heaven and earth. If it is used in artifact refining, the refined result will naturally be the most magnificent object.
Evil spirits, retreat!
Boom~!
In an instant, another prohibition was integrated into the Dao embryo.
Hum hum hum~!
After this prohibition was added, the whole Dao embryo began to vibrate slightly, and it roared.
Then, the third... the fourth...the fifth...
Until the thirty-sixth!
Boom~!
At this moment, the sound of the Thunder Tribulation in the sky was already immense. The endless purple thunder pillars kept spreading and gathering, as if they would strike down at any moment.
The entire sky had turned into the color of lightning.
Sizzling ~!
In the void of the Hidden World, a sizzling sound suddenly came from a certain place.
Then, an old man appeared.
The old man was a bit hunched, leaning on a walking stick, dressed in coarse clothes. Despite his reduced state representing a common old farmer, there was incongruously a large sword on his back.
It was a large sword, the entire blade was casually wrapped in cloth, a heavy sword without edge!
The old man was looking over this way, his murky eyes were reflecting the stars at this moment, engendering the Sword Realm with a thought.
"Old guy, you’re already here, don’t play dumb. Don’t tell me you don’t miss gathering with us old fellows?"
Then, the sky tore apart, and a rugged voice resonated through Heaven and Earth.
The voice wasn’t loud, just enough to reach the ears of the old man.
It seemed they knew each other, their conversations were more casual.
"Barbarian Ancestor old man, do you dare to say you weren’t the ones avoiding me first?"
The old man looked into the direction where the sound originated, and then spoke in a cold voice.
Hum hum hum~!
After the old man spoke, a humming sound was heard, and then a rugged figure appeared.
This was also an old man, but unlike the Sword Ancestor, this old fellow looked like a robust young man!
Full-faced beard, muscular body, he looked like a honest but slightly silly man.
"Sword idiot, don’t be so boring. I didn’t have anything else to say, so I wanted to lighten the mood a bit."
It was none other than the Barbarian Ancestor of the Martial Pavilion.
Like the Sword Ancestor, he was also attracted by the noise Chen Chang’an made.
"Namo Amitabha."
"Hello to you two."
However, before the Sword Ancestor and the Barbarian Ancestor could have a longer conversation, another humming sound echoed from the sky.
