Chapter 552 Transformation into a Sword Sheath

agon, if one could make contact with it, the effects might be even better. The fact that Lu Xia Tian was now a dragon is irrefutable. In the future, facing the Heavenly Court, perhaps relying on his o...Lu Xiaoteng hadn't prepared for the hump on Wang Duoguai's back at all, he hadn't even thought about it. Looking back on the previous perilous experience, in fact, even if he wasn't behind Wang Duoguai, but somewhere not far in front of him, unprepared, he probably wouldn't have escaped this attack. After all, at close range, the withered vine hand transformed from Ziye Zhenwu could bend, and its speed was definitely not slow. At close range without defense, it was almost unavoidable.

It was later discovered that this Zijie Zhenwu was also a powerful force. Although its power weakened quickly, it could rival Di Kun in a short period of time, which was extremely powerful.

“Well, after you've seen this score, you should know I'm still quite useful, right” Xiaoshumiao's one eye met Lu Xia Tian's, a hint of smugness in its gaze.

"That humpback had its uses before, but for me, it's not that useful. I wouldn't want to become a camel or have an extra deformity in my body." Lu Xia Tian's face was expressionless as he glanced at the sapling. "So you are of no value to me either."

The sapling heard what Lu Xiaodong said, and that single eye suddenly showed a trace of fear. The previous trace of pride flew to the sky outside the clouds, and its voice stammered, "You, you mean... "

“Since you’re useless, keeping you around is just an extra burden. You almost took my life just now.” Seeing the sapling's frightened expression, Lu Xiaottian couldn't help but chuckle. Although the sapling had injured him, its mind was simple and far less cunning than Wang Tuo's. Lu Xiaottian didn't intend to kill it; he was secretly pondering how to make use of the sapling. After all, his current strength was already very strong for a Golden Core initial stage cultivator. In fact, with multiple techniques employed, even most Golden Core mid-stage cultivators would struggle against him. However, against a Golden Core late-stage cultivator, these methods were insufficient. If a Golden Core late-stage cultivator was faster than him, he wouldn't even be able to escape. The sapling had great potential and was unheard of; destroying it would be a waste.

Though Lu Xia Tian wasn't someone who particularly cared about appearance, he wouldn't want to be like Wang Duo Gui and deliberately make himself hunchbacked. After all, having an abnormally shaped deformity on his body would just feel awkward no matter how you looked at it.

“No, no, please don't kill me, I'm still useful. Don't make you into a hunchback.” Lu Xia Tian was thinking about it, the young sapling beside him had been frightened by Lu Xia Tian and his face changed drastically. He hurriedly said excitedly.

“Oh You tell me, what else could it be useful for” Lu Xia Tian asked calmly.

"You, don't you have a golden sword I can become your scabbard. You wouldn't have to keep spitting it out of your mouth like that anymore." The little sapling hurriedly said.

“A scabbard The golden blade is my dan yuan artifact. I can nurture it with my soul energy while it’s inside me. Even if you become a scabbard, can it do that” Lu Xiaoteng said doubtfully. He had only been in the Jindan stage for over thirty years, but his combat power reached such heights. Besides the Soul Devouring Art and the Eight Trigrams Array to Capture Demons, under his limited cultivation, he relied on the power of his dan yuan artifact. Although it had only been inside him for over thirty years, he could use his deputy soul energy in the dantian to constantly nurture it. In practice, it was equivalent to at least double the time of other cultivators. The power of his dan yuan artifact was already comparable to that of an average Jindan mid-stage cultivator.”

Otherwise, when the Earth-Splitting Blade fought against the Tiger Head Knife wielded by King Tuo during their previous battle, if there was a significant disparity in their strength, even with the help of formation power, they wouldn't be able to withstand the fierce onslaught of the Tiger Head Knife. Even if this sapling became a scabbard, if it couldn't nurture the weapon's power, what use would an empty shell be

"Sure, as long as you use your mana and infuse it into my body, it can nourish the Golden Sword. And as long as you don't intentionally cut off the flow of mana, I can automatically absorb it to nourish the Golden Sword." The sapling nodded repeatedly. "While your sword is in its sheath, I am unable to attack. However, once the Golden Sword is drawn, I can also attack enemies at any time."

"Just like the previous attack on me" Lu Xia Tian said in a low voice.

“Yes, yes,” the sapling stammered. “No, but that camel was my master before, and I cannot disobey his will unless he dies after which I can find a new host.”

"You've recovered your previous attack power. How long will it take" Lu Xia Tian asked.

“This depends on how much mana you can focus for me. If your focus is strong enough, it will be done in an instant. That would be my strongest attack before, but the duration won't be long. If your focus isn't strong enough, I won't be able to recover to my previous attacking power.” Saying this, the sapling tilted its head.

"Well then, make me a scabbard for a while." Lu Xia Tian flicked his left thumb nail against his middle finger and snapped it, sending a drop of blood flying towards the sapling.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!

The little sapling was overjoyed when Lu Xiaotian agreed to accept it. It opened its mouth and swallowed the essence blood that Lu Xiaotian had ejected, and a faint smell of blood emanated from its body. This was the characteristic of Wang Tumai's essence blood being forced out of its body.

Purple Leaf Zhenwu is a very peculiar monster, and its process of recognizing a master is very quick. Although this encounter with the Wang Duo monster was fraught with danger, Lu Xiaoteng was still relatively satisfied with the harvest. This Purple Leaf Zhenwu still has the potential to advance, and the book just now mentioned several strange creatures that could help it advance, such as the first type of life spring, including the following two types. Lu Xiaoteng couldn't say he had ever seen them, nor had he even heard of them. It seems that there are still many things in this world that he doesn't understand.

After absorbing Lu Xiaoteng's essence blood, Zi Ye Zhen Wu felt a mysterious connection with him, as if he could command his movements.

Several ideas were communicated to the sapling, and it was able to complete them all very well.

"Become a scabbard." Lü Xia Tian conveyed his final instruction with satisfaction.

The sapling twisted, transforming into a sheath of deep brown with patterns resembling leaves. It was not ornate and appeared quite plain and understated. Lu Xiaotian inserted the Splitting Earth Blade directly into it, secretly using his secondary divine soul to control a portion of his mana into it. He discovered that the sheath transformed from the sapling could successfully transmit mana, and his secondary divine soul could also inhabit the sheath. However, the sheath still gave him a sense of incongruity, like suddenly having an extra thing on his body. Lu Xiaotian knew this was because he had just subdued the sapling, and the compatibility between them wasn't high enough yet. As time passed, they would become truly compatible.ach with their own good fortune. He couldn't control so much, so he'd let them go for now.Once my cultivation base is strong enough, I'll try my best to find these people. Right now, I need to survive...
