However, when he handed the sword to Yan Xiaobao, his eyes were filled with excitent.
"Continue testing!"
Yan Xiaobao frowned slightly as he took the sword. Yet, before he could test it, Big Fatty Zhang reached out and grabbed his hand.
"Don't try it here," he said solemnly. "Rember, Ninth Junior Brother, the most important part of the spiritual test is your feelings. When it feels right, it's like receiving help from the Gods. Since you succeeded in the room last ti, you should try testing it again this ti!"
Yan Xiaobao blinked several tis, looking at Big Fatty Zhang, who seed to understand the extent of the spiritual enhancent. Nodding, he thoughtfully jogged back to his room.
"Brother might really be skilled in spiritual enhancent. It's hard to say. Just now, he seed to have succeeded even without my turtle pot's help." Upon reaching this point in his thoughts, he decided not to place the Flying Sword in the turtle pot. Instead, he simply infused so spiritual power directly into the sword.
In a blink, silver light flickered. But soon after, it quickly dimd. A cracking sound ensued, reducing the sword to useless scraps.
Just as Yan Xiaobao anxiously furrowed his brows, he could hear Big Fatty Zhang talking outside.
"Ninth Junior Brother, I just saw so silver light. What happened? Did it succeed?"
"Um... I haven't tested yet," Yan Xiaobao quickly replied. "Let do it now..."
Big Fatty Zhang stood quietly outside, his face tense and bitter. He wasn't an idiot, and he was quite certain he had seen silver light flashing from Yan Xiaobao's small hut earlier.
Sighing, he believed Yan Xiaobao simply did not want to acknowledge the failure. With a deep breath, he shouted, "I know you tested it, Ninth Junior Brother. It's alright. I... I'll leave now."
Upon arriving, Big Fatty Zhang had burst with excitent, but the recent setback had plunged him into depression.
He realized he had acted impulsively. According to his master, spiritual enhancent was a very mysterious magic technology; achieving perfect success was impossible. Moreover, within the Cultivation World, there was a strange phenonon. Apparently... those who succeeded once would find future successes easier to achieve, while those who failed would experience the opposite.
This sounded odd, but it boiled down to the power of will. It was a mysterious matter; the more confidence one possessed, the greater the chances of success.
In the realm of spiritual enhancent, two main techniques could be cultivated. One was the orthodox thod, where the spirit enhancer was only responsible for the initial spiritual enhancent. He would not personally perform the spiritual test. Instead, the object would be given to the owner, who would perform a spirit test from the presence provided by the enhancer.
Thus, success or failure wouldn't impact the spirit enhancer's ntal state. Avoiding corruption from results, the spirit enhancer could forget the matter and maintain a calm mind.
However, there was another more extre thod. It was called the Will Spirit Great Magic. It focused on the profound and mysterious power of will. In that thod, spirit enhancers keenly observed the results of the spiritual enhancent. The more success they experienced, the more astonishing their spirit enhancent abilities would beco. It's an extre thod that can have extre negative effects on spirit enhancers, potentially destroying their talents altogether.
Even so, many still tried to use this thod. Even Master Zhang Xu ixiang had to admit that if one cultivated such extre spiritual enhancent thods, they could achieve heavenly results. Their willpower and confidence would achieve remarkable accomplishnts.
The Spirit Stream Sect's religious treasure, the Heavenly Sword, had already received a tenfold spirit enhancent, crafted by quirky spirit enhancers over thousands of years.
Big Fatty Zhang smiled bitterly. He knew well that at Violet Cauldron Peak, orthodox cultivation thods were preferred. Overco by excitent, he made a huge mistake. His inner calm was disturbed, requiring quite a long ti to restore.
Yan Xiaobao could see through the window the dejected posture of Big Fatty Zhang. Reluctant to disappoint him so, he gritted his teeth, took out a similar Flying Sword from his hand, and then pulled out the turtle pot to swiftly perform a dual spirit enhancent.
By then, the bitter Big Fatty Zhang placed his hand on the courtyard's gate, ready to leave. Suddenly, Yan Xiaobao's cheerful voice rang out.
"Brother, it worked!!" As Xiao Baichun rushed out, the small hut's door burst open, overwheld with joy, holding a Flying Sword, its surface showing two silver patterns.
"Really?!" As he turned to look at the Flying Sword, a shiver ran through Big Fatty Zhang. Then he began to shake, his face filled with excitent and disbelief.
"Hahaha! I am truly one of the chosen spirit enhancers. Dual spirit enhancent! I can hardly believe it! I've succeeded!!"
He hugged Yan Xiaobao in a bear hug, joyful tears streaming down his face. The truth was his potential was only average; without the deep connection between his family and his master, he would never have been allowed into the Spiritual Flow Sect.
Only because of the precious materials in the oven could he cultivate to the third level of Qi Condensation's grand circle. After joining the Outer Sect, he lacked these precious materials, encountering great difficulties in cultivation. He could only watch as the third Fatty Hei and Bai Xiaochun surpassed him, and despite feeling happy for them, he was very disappointed in himself.
