Young Miss Meng thought things through very thoroughly. Of course, a small part of it was just wanting to come out and play. After all, Sun Moon was currently too peaceful, to the point of being a bit boring. As for whether they would encounter any safety issues coming out...
As some of the few owners of "Secondary Creator" permissions, they were constantly monitored by the "Divine Kingdom of Order." They could summon two Limit Douluo-level "ling shu clones" at any time and could be pulled back to the "Divine Kingdom of Order" whenever necessary. Their safety factor was maxed out. Well... although a certain guy was a hands-off manager, it had to be said that they didn't have any safety issues now.
"That's really hard work..."
Kong Mingan sighed slightly with emotion. Young Miss Meng raised an eyebrow and chuckled, "Then come with me. You can be my assistant and carry my bags or something, so it won't be so hard for me."
"Sure, as long as I'm around."
"You're really thinking of running away again, aren't you?"
"Who knows."
"Tsk."
That's how childhood friends are. Even if they don't meet or contact each other for a while, they become familiar again after just a few words upon meeting.
After chatting and laughing for a while longer, the atmosphere eased slightly. Kong Mingan looked at Meng Hongchen and said, "Let me see it."
"Mhm."
Young Miss Meng responded softly, her expression turning a bit more serious from her previous casualness. She then stood up from the sofa and walked over to Kong Mingan. Today's Young Miss Meng was slim and graceful, with silver hair and blue eyes. Her exquisite face carried a hint of the beauty unique to a young girl. Wearing a custom-made Sun Moon Royal Soul Engineer Academy uniform, it perfectly outlined her well-proportioned curves that were neither too small nor too large. Her legs, extending from beneath her short skirt, were covered in white silk stockings, straight and glowing with a faint soft light under the lamps, looking very beautiful. She took a deep breath, and in the next moment, her Spirit was released. Her silver-white hair seemed to be quenched in a layer of ice and snow, while her ice-blue eyes turned a burning red. This was Young Miss Meng's Spirit, the Vermilion-Eyed Ice Toad. The Vermilion-Eyed Ice Toad was an ice-attribute, highly poisonous Spirit Beast, known as the king of the crevices in the Extreme North Land. Its territory was located at the junction of the Extreme North Land's outskirts and the human World. The powerful poison it possessed was essentially a special cold poison created by the intertwining of the Vermilion-Eyed Ice Toad's own ice attribute with the fire attribute of its eyes, and its effect was extremely potent.
Young Miss Meng paused slightly as five deep black spirit rings rose from beneath her feet, her powerful Aura spreading naturally. But in the next moment, a set of exquisite light armor with smooth lines and flickering ice-blue patterns emerged from her body as if it were alive, quickly covering her entire body. Young Miss Meng made a grasping motion with both hands, and two slender silver-white rapiers slowly appeared. The dense cold air at the tips of the swords intertwined with a trace of fire-attribute spirit power, naturally adding the cold poison, and her Aura became sharp.
This was "Battle Armor." Of course, it was currently only a prototype version.
A faint blue light naturally flickered in the depths of Kong Mingan's eyes as he asked, "How does it feel?"
"Not bad." Young Miss Meng moved her body casually and said offhandedly, "Wearing this, I can probably fight a Spirit Saint-level Spirit Master of the traditional system. However, it takes a little time to summon it each time, which is probably a drawback?"
"I suppose so," Kong Mingan said understandingly. "After all, it's Battle Armor made of Spirit Forging metal. It will take quite some time to adapt to it completely and even make it a part of your body. However, once you reach level seventy and gain a preliminary grasp of Elementalization, your mental force and spirit power will undergo a qualitative change. Then, you should be able to equip it instantly and fully master this set of Battle Armor."
Young Miss Meng nodded and conveniently retracted the Battle Armor.
Then, Kong Mingan turned his gaze toward Xu Tianzhen, who was still hugging his arm. Xu Tianzhen had no intention of standing up to show off; instead, she leaned in closer, as if she wanted to hang herself on him. "Hurry up, won't you?"
Kong Mingan said irritably. Xu Tianzhen curled her lip, then raised her other hand. As spirit power surged, an exceptionally heavy, scorching giant sword that was crimson all over appeared out of thin air. Then, the phantom of Xu Tianzhen's Sun Martial Soul flashed behind her before plunging straight into the crimson greatsword. In an instant, the crimson greatsword seemed to be infused with a Soul, shining brightly as a scorching and sharp Aura suddenly rose, revealing its keen edge.
This was the path of an Artifact Cultivator.
Compared to the Spell Cultivator path, which starts by imprinting Soul Skill Modules and constructing a Holy Guidance Soul Ring, or the Body Cultivator path, which starts by tempering the physical body and condensing a qi and blood soul ring, the Foundation of an Artifact Cultivator is to find or forge a "tool" that is highly compatible with oneself, nourishing it day and night with one's own spirit power and mental force. The greatsword in Xu Tianzhen's hand was her "tool." However, it had not yet completely fused with her Spirit. Once it fused perfectly, it would become a Lifebound Treasure, which could grow and evolve continuously with its owner, becoming stronger through the owner's own refinement and the integration of higher-level metal Materials. At the same time, spirit rings could also be integrated into it later. The subsequent path was to pursue the Realm of the Unity of Person and Tool, where they were indistinguishable from each other, similar to Ji Juechen. His Spirit and spirit rings had long since preliminarily fused into his extraterrestrial meteorite iron sword. Everything he had was tied to the sword. He could be considered an Artifact Cultivator, but he was also an extremely pure Sword Cultivator. As for how to further categorize it, it was generally determined by the Concept the practitioner comprehended. Comprehending Sword Intent made one a Sword Cultivator. If someone comprehended Saber Intent in the future, they could naturally be called a Saber Cultivator.
It could be said that the scope of Artifact Cultivators was extremely broad. Moreover, unlike the Spell Cultivator and Body Cultivator paths, which currently serve as the two Foundations and have a certain degree of repulsion because of their use of spirit rings, making it difficult to cultivate both, the Artifact Cultivator path could be cultivated concurrently. Just like the current Xu Tianzhen, she was essentially following the path of a Spell Cultivator while also practicing as an Artifact Cultivator. Kong Mingan was deep in thought. While the development of the system's upper levels was important, the lower-level Foundation was equally important and needed constant attention. Nodding, Kong Mingan withdrew his thoughts and asked casually, "Are you confident about this competition?"
"More or less. Our only real opponent is probably Shrek. Unlike us, who still need to focus on things like condensing Soul Skill Modules, Shrek is putting all their effort into increasing their cultivation. It's hard to say who is stronger. But it doesn't matter; that brother of mine will step in. With him there, there probably won't be any problems."
Saying this, Young Miss Meng rested her forehead on one hand, showing a look of a headache. "That brother of mine, ever since he could independently complete Spirit Forging, he's been like a madman. He stayed in the workshop for three months without rest just to finish the Materials for that blueprint you left behind... Now, he's quite outrageous."
Kong Mingan paused slightly, a bit surprised, but more expectant. "Then I'll wait and see."
