Da Xuan Martial Saint

Crackle and pop!!

Purple thunder arcs continuously exploded and intertwined, clashing and wearing against Chen Mu's Yuan Gang Force. The standoff lasted for a moment until the thunder arcs above gradually dimmed.

Finally, Chen Mu took a deep breath. His Yuan Gang Force turned into an invisible hand formed from a fierce wind, tightly grasping the ancient spear and forcibly pulled it up, yanking it out of the cavity in the rock face.

Crack, snap.

This pitch-black ancient spear, now in Chen Mu's hands, still crackled with thin arcs of electricity, but they no longer affected him.

Chen Mu examined it carefully, his gaze falling upon the bottom of the spear where two characters were inscribed - 'Evil Breaker'.

"Evil Breaker..."

"A thunder attribute spirit weapon, huh."

Chen Mu muttered to himself. Although it was his first encounter with a spirit weapon, his understanding of them was not shallow. They came in an abundant variety, with majority being of the killing and fighting type, yet there were also many special spirit weapons like the Qiankun Pot.

In fact, martial artists at the Five Viscera Realm could harness the power of spirit weapons, but due to their rarity and value, they seldom appeared in the hands of martial men at this realm, including true disciples from sects such as Han Guang.

However.

As far as Chen Mu knew, if these true disciples took another step forward and entered the Six Viscera Realm, they might have the opportunity to obtain a spirit weapon from their sect. But that was merely a possibility, given the scarcity of spirit weapons and the crucial factor of affinity.

Like this ancient spear with its pure 'thunder attribute', only someone with the Thunderclap Artistic Conception could unleash its full might. Without the requisite thunder attribute artistic conception, one would not only fail to exert its power but also waste their own energy in a futile attempt to control it.

"Huff."

Chen Mu exhaled softly and then a flash of thunder sparkled in the depths of his eyes. His Yuan Gang True Essence transformed into pure lightning energy and infused into the Evil Breaker ancient spear.

Initially, his Yuan Gang met with fierce rejection from the spear, but as the lightning spread, dispelling the remaining energies within the spear, its resistance to his Yuan Gang Force ceased. Soon, its surface shimmered with intertwined thunder arcs.

Chen Mu's right hand tightly gripped the Thunder Spear and then he suddenly hurled it toward the rock face.

Boom!!!

Enveloped in tendrils of electricity, the Thunder Spear burst forth, savagely penetrating the rock face and forcefully disrupting the Earth Pulse's Power within, burying itself nearly two inches deep before coming to a stop!

After making this throw, Chen Mu's complexion turned slightly pale. The move had almost completely drained his Yuan Gang Force, transforming it into the might of thunder. The extraction was so rapid and the amount so vast that the circulation of the Five Viscera Inner Breath in his body couldn't keep up with the replenishment rate.

But the power of the blow was truly terrifying.

His all-out strike under normal circumstances would scarcely leave a half-inch mark on the rock face, yet a strike wielding this spirit weapon bore nearly two inches deep!

While a spear could penetrate more easily than a blade, making a direct comparison unviable, the power was nearly double!

At this moment, Chen Mu's Five Viscera Inner Breath continued to cycle, drawing Yuan Qi from between heaven and earth to replenish himself, yet his complexion remained a bit pale. The excessive consumption made it difficult for him to recover swiftly.

By his estimation, perhaps only upon entering the Six Viscera Realm would he be able fully to control and wield the power of this spirit weapon.

"This strike must hold nearly tenfold the might of a thunderbolt!"

Chen Mu murmured to himself.

Although the consumption was extremely exaggerated, leaving his Yuan Gang Force nearly depleted, the power was indeed fearsome, far stronger than his full-force strike with the Flowing Fire Blade.

If he had possessed this Thunder Spear earlier, a single strike would have meant that even if Han Guang were protected by the Spirit Jade Pendant, he would have been undeniably slain.

After adjusting himself for a moment, Chen Mu approached once more, gripped the ancient spear, and pulled it out from the rock face. He took a careful look at it and then bowed respectfully toward the dust inside the stone cave, where the ashes of the predecessor lay.

"I do not know your name or origins, senior, and for disturbing your rest, I ask for your forgiveness ... I shall wield this weapon henceforth and shall not tarnish its reputation, please rest assured and return in peace."
