BXBX NOVEL Chapter 212 212: Killer Weapon Spirit
Once Yoze\'s golden pillar reached 60 feet in height and easily dwarfed all the other rogue immortal cultivators. After that, everyone from the rogue cultivators to the immortals looked at Yoze with shock and suspicion.
They felt that someone with a grade 6 talent in immortal cultivation would have been long picked up by an immortal sect. There was no other way for him to have discovered that he had crystal nerves without an immortal cultivator from an immortal sect contacting him and testing his talent.
It was widely known that only immortal cultivators accepted into immortal sects would be allowed to learn the method to find and test the immortal cultivation talent in someone. The reason was simple: why would they give up their monopoly on recruiting talented individuals and allow the possibility that rogue immortal cultivators gather people who have the potential to become immortals?
If the gathering was large enough, then the restriction on not being able to reach the Crystal Brain realm would eventually be solved. It would no longer be a problem because, with all the knowledge they accumulated throughout their cultivation, they could form their own methods to crystalize their brains and become immortal.
The invention of immortal cultivation methods was all created by people with talent who were willing to risk their lives in pursuit of immortality. Unfortunately, countless people died trying, but a few people were able to have some success in their research.
Creating several branching paths such as witchcraft, immortal cultivation, and body cultivation for martial arts. The immortal cultivation path was simply a method. As long as the conditions for creating another path or solving the mystery for their method were met, then there was a high possibility for it to happen.
So most immortal sects agree to not only not give rogue immortal cultivators the whole path to immortality but also not give them any method to identify who was talented in immortal cultivation. Under these circumstances, it was extremely rare for anyone with talent not to have been sucked up by an immortal sect.
"A grade 6 talent in immortal cultivation means that you have entered the Pure rank and thus have passed the test. Since you passed, you no longer need to continue with the rest of the tests unless you want to claim the prize." Patty said swiftly towards Yoze.
"I would like to continue," Yoze said without saying anything further.
"Okay," Patty nodded and noticed that other than Yoze, who was an abnormality, the rest of the rogue immortal cultivators had talents below grade 5.
"For those who failed or want to proceed, continue to hold onto your weapons as the second test is about to begin," Patty said with a cold smile on his face as he clapped his hands twice.
As soon as Patty finished his sentence, many rogue immortal cultivators felt a chill run down their spines as the golden light that formed the golden pillars turned black. It was to their relief that the black pillars of light were reabsorbed into the weapons they came out of.
"Ahhh!"
A blood-curdling scream suddenly drew everyone\'s attention as they turned to focus on a young man in his twenties staring at his weapon with terrified eyes. His weapon was a giant pair of scissors whose sharp edges were covered in spikes, but oddly, the scissors were not only open but moving towards the young man\'s neck.
"Stop, stop, I quit! I don\'t want to keep going on with the test!" The young man screamed at Patty as his arm trembled in a helpless attempt to stop his scissor from beheading him.
Patty coldly looked at the young man and said nothing as he watched the giant scissor grow closer and closer until a quick snip took off the young man\'s head, leaving only a blood stump where his head was previously located. Watching that scene made every rogue immortal aware that they needed to try their best to pass this test, or they would end up with their bodies mutilated.
Similar scenes began to appear everywhere as rogue immortal cultivators who didn\'t have enough crystal energy struggled to suppress their weapons from leaving their control. Yet many of them still found that it was simply not enough, and those below the Crystal Spine realm lost control of their weapons one after another.
Luckily some of the weapon spirits seemed kinder as they didn\'t try to kill the rogue immortal cultivators and simply escaped their hands, others would knock out the rogue immortal cultivators, and some would just injure the rogue immortal cultivators without killing them.
This could have been because most rogue immortal cultivators who were on the brink of losing control instead reused the rest of their energy escaping from their weapons, resulting in fewer deaths. The rest of the rogue immortal cultivators continued their struggle to keep suppressing their weapons until an hour passed.
As Yoze watched this all unfold in less than half an hour, he couldn\'t help but look at his weapon with curiosity as he barely felt any struggle to escape his grasp. Yet, even though he knew it was trying its best, Yoze couldn\'t help but feel a bit disappointed as he hoped for a better fight.
Just then, as Yoze thought he would not have to worry about losing control of his weapon, Yoze noticed that a black glow was coming from his two-headed battle axe and growing more intense by the second.
The black glow grew as the black light became dark until it was an inky black that no light could pass through. Then, finally, the black light completely engulfed his battle axe transforming it into its own shadow.
At the same time, Yoze could sense that the strength of his battle axe\'s struggle rapidly grew stronger for 15 minutes before it stopped since it reached its maximum potential. With his hand gripped tightly around the black two-headed battle axe, Yoze wanted to test if he could inject his inner vigor into the battle axe and use that as a substitute for his lack of crystal energy.
