494: Chapter 494 Spirit Weapon Techniques!

Holding the spear, the feeling of being connected by Bloodline became even stronger.

He could clearly feel the power contained within the spear's body, the sharpness of the tip, and the resilience of the shaft.

This spear was his most loyal companion.

And the moment the spirit weapon appeared in his hand, Qin Yan also learned its information!

A One-Pattern spirit weapon!

Looking at the single pattern on the long spear, where the Five Elements and Blood Devilish Qi were intertwined, Qin Yan was not surprised.

Every spirit weapon starts from a single pattern.

A One-Pattern spirit weapon is the initial form and the starting point for all spirit weapons.

Then it slowly grows, evolving through various means until it becomes a ten-pattern, Hundred-Pattern, Thousand-Pattern, Ten-Thousand-Pattern, or even the legendary Supreme-grade spirit weapon!

Each pattern represents a transformation, a stage of growth.

The more patterns there are, the stronger the spirit weapon becomes.

"A single pattern only provides a 0.1x vitality boost? So weak."

Qin Yan couldn't help but feel a bit disappointed.

0.1 times meant a 10% boost.

With his current total vitality of 230,000 cals, a One-Pattern spirit weapon could only allow him to burst out an additional 23,000 cals of power.

But he also knew this was normal.

A One-Pattern spirit weapon was inherently the weakest among spirit weapons; providing a 0.1x boost was already decent.

"For now, I'll feed you until you become a ten-pattern spirit weapon."

A One-Pattern spirit weapon can't even be called a ten-pattern, the lowest level of spirit weapons; it can only be called unranked.

It had to reach at least ten-patterns to be considered a true spirit weapon and exert its proper power.

Acting on his thought, Qin Yan waved his hand, and a fiery-red gauntlet appeared in his palm.

The gauntlet was entirely fiery red, like a burning flame, emitting a scorching Aura.

Most striking were the fifty-six fiery-red patterns shining upon the gauntlet!

These patterns were dense and layered, weaving into a complex design on the surface of the gauntlet.

With every flash of light, one could feel the immense power contained within.

Fifty-six patterns—this meant it was a Fifty-Six-Pattern spirit weapon.

Anything from ten to ninety-nine patterns falls under the category of a ten-pattern spirit weapon.

Fifty-six patterns was considered upper-middle tier among ten-pattern spirit weapons.

And this spirit weapon gauntlet was exactly the one he had obtained after killing Feng Jin.

Although Feng Jin had been dead for hundreds of days, his legacy was still proving useful.

Qin Yan touched the spirit weapon gauntlet, feeling its warm texture, and then placed it before the long spear spirit weapon.

A suction force suddenly emanated from the long spear spirit weapon!

The moment the fiery-red gauntlet touched the suction, it turned into a streak of light and merged into the long spear, vanishing instantly.

In its place, the long spear spirit weapon was shrouded in a layer of fiery-red light.

This was one of the core traits of the creation divine iron!

It could devour other spirit weapons and Ore to evolve, which was why it was called a divine material.

To upgrade the rank of an ordinary spirit weapon, one would need to re-forge it and add various Materials, a process both complex and dangerous.

However, a spirit weapon forged from creation divine iron only needed to devour other spirit weapons to evolve automatically.

Qin Yan observed silently from the side, wanting to see what changes would occur in the spirit weapon.

The fiery-red light enveloped the spear's body, and the patterns on it began to flicker slightly, as if digesting something.

The light flickered rhythmically, waxing and waning like a breath.

However, half a quarter-hour passed, and there was no change in the spirit weapon.

Another half a quarter-hour passed, and still no change.

Qin Yan wasn't in a hurry; he just watched quietly.

He knew that evolution through devouring took time and couldn't be rushed.

Not until half an hour had passed did the long spear spirit weapon finally show some movement.

The spear's body trembled slightly, emitting a faint hum.

Immediately after, Qin Yan saw the patterns on the spear increase from one to two!

Two patterns, one on the left and one on the right, sat side-by-side on the spear's body.

And the Aura of the long spear spirit weapon also suddenly rose a notch.

Although the increase wasn't large, it was real.

Qin Yan was delighted to see this.

It worked!

Afterward, in less than half an hour, another pattern appeared on the long spear.

The speed was slightly faster than before.

"Is it because the spirit weapon's rank is rising that the refinement is getting faster and faster?"

Qin Yan speculated.

Refinement had taken half an hour at One-Pattern and less than half an hour at two patterns; now at three patterns, it should be even faster.

As the spirit weapon's rank increased, the speed of devouring and refinement would also accelerate.

This was a virtuous cycle.

Seeing that nothing was amiss with the spirit weapon and that it was automatically digesting the devoured gauntlet, Qin Yan stopped staring and began training in his room.

After a week of hard training, he had pushed his Destructions End Spear Intent from 45% to 80%.

In just a few more days, it would reach 100%.

Reaching 100% in four types of Spear Intent was one of the conditions for condensing the Supreme-grade Spear Intent, the Great Destruction Spear Intent!

Only by mastering all four types of Spear Intent through thorough Fusion could one begin the process.

This was a hard requirement with no shortcuts.

Therefore, Qin Yan's next training goal was to practice all the Spear Intents he had obtained to 100%!

Destructions End Spear Intent, Nirvana Spear Intent, and the Shattering Spear Intent and Extinction Spear Intent he would learn in the future—every single one had to be practiced to Perfection.

Time slowly passed.

Qin Yan immersed himself in training, practicing his Spear Technique over and over again.

When night fell, Qin Yan put down the long spear, stopped his training, and approached his natal spirit weapon.

By this time, the patterns on the natal spirit weapon had undergone a massive change.

A full eleven patterns were wrapped around it!

These patterns were layered and crisscrossed, forming a complex and beautiful design on the spear's body.

The overall Aura of the spirit weapon had also become formidable.

That formidability wasn't just a simple increase in power, but a qualitative leap.

If it was just an ordinary long spear before, it was now a true spirit weapon, emitting a pressure unique to spirit weapons.

Seeing this, Qin Yan reached out and grasped the spirit weapon in his hand.

Immediately after, a stream of information flowed into Qin Yan's mind; it was the feedback from the spirit weapon.

Qin Yan sensed it carefully, digesting the information.

After a long while, he finally opened his eyes.

Looking at the spirit weapon in his hand, he couldn't help but show a look of surprise.

"It actually possesses two Spirit Weapon Skills."

Spirit Weapon Skills—those are unique skills of spirit weapons and where their true power lies.

One must know that generally, spirit weapons of the same rank provide the same intensity of vitality boost.

Similarly, ten-pattern spirit weapons all provide a vitality boost of around 1x; there isn't much difference.

But some spirit weapons are powerful while others are weak; one key factor is the Spirit Weapon Skills they bestow!

A powerful Spirit Weapon Skill is enough to raise a user's combat strength by a whole level.
