Chapter 26: Battle Spirit

Battle spirit is graded Bronze, Silver, Gold, Platinum with Bronze as the lowest grade.

However, a bronze battle spirit may seem weak but in this era where cultivation has declined, having a bronze battle spirit is an amazing feat.

Amazing to the point where you will earn recognition and many families asking for marriage opportunities.

Of course, Yang Wei has no idea how amazing it would be to have a battle spirit since no one informed him of the details.

During these days, Yang Wei has been busy trying to connect with his soul and core to condense a battle spirit.

Although it was never successful, he was getting closer and closer with each failure.

Meanwhile, Elder Jing has finally found the three core ingredients needed for the pill which she has practically given hope on.

Elder Jing was happy as she went to inform Old Ling about her choice which he agreed without hesitation.

Mainly because he doesn’t want to be reminded of him getting injured by Yang Wei in a surprise attack.

2 weeks have slowly gone by where Elder Jing continued to practice her alchemy while Yang Wei continued to close his eyes in a lotus position.

*Blingggggggg*

Suddenly, in the mystery realm, a ray of light was shot out from Yang Wei’s position.

“Yang Wei actually succeeded in forming a battle spirit in 2 weeks.” Old Ling said in disbelief when he never thought about Yang Wei could form one.

It took him 5 years to form a battle spirit under his master’s guidance but he only said one sentence to him back then, ‘My successor will be one to surpass all obstacles and achieve the impossible.’

‘Master, I think I finally can complete the task you assigned me back when you ascended to the Divine World.’ Old Ling said inwardly as he is now looking at a miracle occurring.

Elder Jing had a gawking expression when she saw Yang Wei’s aura continued to increase and entered the 8th stage Qi Condensation directly.

“Isn’t this cultivation speed too fast?” Elder Jing turned around to ask Old Ling about his abnormal speed.

“No, this speed is considered average in the desolate era. But in this era, to be able to accomplish this is extremely hard.” Old Ling replied slowly while activating a barrier to prevent any damage from Yang Wei’s aura.

Yang Wei started floating up the air as his eye remained close but near his stomach, a bright light could be seen.

Slowly, a sword-looking object came out from Yang Wei’s body as it started drifting around him.

“What is that senior Ling?” Elder Jing asked in confusion in this scenario.

“Yang Wei has managed to achieve in forming a battle spirit. That sword indicates success and to think it’s a Middle Bronze Grade.” Old Ling said depressingly when a youngster manages to surpass his hard work easily.

Old Ling took 5 years to form a battle spirit and it’s the lowest grade possible, Bronze Grade and many seniors laughed at him for a year.

‘This boy, I will not go easy on him in the second test.’ Old Ling said inwardly as he swore to beat him down into a pulp.

Jealousy can enrage anyone even if they’re over 1000 years old and Yang Wei has unfortunately hit Old Ling’s past wound.

*Blink*

After another 10 minutes goes by, Yang Wei finally opens his eye and the battle spirit starts revolving around him like a baby.

“So this is my battle spirit huh.” Yang Wei said softly as he stretched his hand to touch it lightly.

The battle spirit became happy and started doing multiple swords slash moves.

Yang Wei became speechless when he saw the sword moves the battle spirit did from the thirteen sword slash technique.

“How did my battle spirit manage that?” Yang Wei said in disbelief and pinch his cheek a little to make sure it’s not a dream.

“A battle spirit is formed through a cultivator’s experience. Anything you have learned so far, the battle spirit automatically knows it.” Old Ling floated up to speak with Yang Wei while being envious.

“Senior Ling, this battle spirit….” Yang Wei tried to ask him more questions but Old Ling simply waved his hand up to stop him.

“No need to ask any more questions, this battle spirit will reside in your core and can come out as you wish. They can be considered a part of you now.” Old Ling said without going too much in detail.

Knowing too many things at once will not help at all and will instead overwhelm them.

Yang Wei also nodded without saying much as he started to go toward Elder Jing who was standing still.

“Elder Jing, have you found the core ingredients yet?” Yang Wei asked softly.

Elder Jing was still dazed by the achievement he made and wondered if he would surpass her sooner or later.

“Elder Jing?” Yang Wei asked again to make sure she was listening.

“Uhh, yes I found the core ingredients already. The only hard part is trying to concoct it since I’m not experienced and I only have one attempt.” Elder Jing said softly as she shook away her thinking.

‘Yang Wei surpassing me? No, that’s impossible since this isn’t some fantasy and I will continue to improve after expelling the poison in my body.’ Elder Jing refused to be surpassed by Yang Wei who was only a medicine boy for her in the beginning.

It would be embarrassing if anyone found out that the boy who used to help her became stronger than her after a while.

Yang Wei didn’t know what Elder Jing is thinking since he doesn’t think highly of the things he did.

“Senior Ling, since we received a reward for passing the first test, I supposed there’s a reward for the second test right?” Yang Wei turned around to ask Old Ling about the reward.

‘If possible, I hope the reward is concocting the pill for Elder Jing since she doesn’t have confidence in succeeding.’ Yang Wei thought inwardly while hoping he would say the reward he wanted.

“Hmph, you think I’m a fool to reward you something you like? Pass my second test before asking for the rewards since you won’t win this time. Take another 3 days to rest and familiarize yourself with the battle spirit before we fight. I don’t want others to know I’m bullying an amateur.” Old Ling said before vanishing from the scene.

Yang Wei and Elder Jing could only look at each other awkwardly from the behavior and tone of Old Ling.

Both of them have an understanding as they nod at each other since they know Old Ling is definitely jealous and throwing a tantrum now.
