"Emperor-grade Weapon?"
Hearing the spirit of the Heavenly Profound Treasure Hall speak, Mo Yu was momentarily stunned. Then, an expression of exhilaration spread across his face.
On the Dou Qi Continent, the pinnacle of medicinal pills was the Emperor-grade pill, a miraculous creation that only Emperor-grade alchemists could refine. These pills possessed effects akin to divine intervention.
However, in Mo Yu's memory, no Emperor-grade pill had been successfully refined for countless years, dating back to the era when Dou Di disappeared.
Though no Emperor-grade pills had emerged in the continent, Mo Yu was well aware of an Emperor-grade Prototype Pill residing within the inheritance grounds of the Tuo She Ancient Emperor.
The Emperor-grade Prototype Pill, a pill that had yet to be fully refined, possessed intelligence akin to a human being.
Once transformed into its human form, the Prototype Pill displayed incredible combat strength, capable of holding its ground against multiple nine-star Dou Shengs simultaneously. Within it lay a trace of Emperor's Origin Essence, offering a chance to ascend to Dou Di.
The might of a mere Prototype Pill was already so terrifying; the true Emperor-grade pill could undoubtedly be called a divine elixir.
Likewise, Emperor-grade weapons stood on par with Emperor-grade pills. They were imbued with the great forces of heaven and earth, carrying mysterious and extraordinary powers.
Thus, when Mo Yu heard that the Heavenly Profound Treasure Hall's spirit could bestow upon him an Emperor-grade weapon, his excitement was only natural.
However, the spirit quickly poured cold water on his excitement, saying, "Hehe, don't celebrate too early. My armory doesn't currently contain a true Emperor-grade weapon to gift you."
"What?" Mo Yu froze upon hearing this, staring at the spirit in astonishment. His tone turned a bit resentful as he said, "Senior, are you toying with me? If there's no Emperor-grade weapon, why even bring it up?"
"Calm down, young friend. Just because I don't have one now doesn't mean I won't have one in the future. During that great battle long ago, my master and Demon General Shi Mo perished together, detonating all the Emperor-grade weapons in the process.
"Thus, there are no longer any true Emperor-grade weapons within the Heavenly Profound Treasure Hall. Otherwise, that demon shadow wouldn't be so arrogant. However, as luck would have it, my master left behind a prototype of an Emperor-grade weapon.
"This prototype was created from one-tenth of a plane origin, which my master obtained by chance, and then fused with some of the rarest, most precious materials to nurture it."
As the spirit finished speaking, a tremor rippled through the space before it. The air distorted slightly, and a moment later, under Mo Yu's focused gaze, a peculiar object appeared—a palm-sized, jet-black, flowing liquid-like entity.
Although small in size, this black object exuded a strange and overwhelming aura. Even with Mo Yu's current strength as a Dou Sheng, he felt a deep sense of dread.
"This is the Emperor-grade weapon prototype?" Mo Yu's expression grew solemn as he spoke in a low voice.
The object radiated a suffocating sense of oppression, confirming the spirit's words. Mo Yu immediately recognized it as the prototype.
What astonished him most was that this object contained one-tenth of a plane origin.
Plane origins, according to records, were ranked as the top divine treasures in the Heavenly Profound Continent. They were the very foundation of the planes themselves, supporting all life within them.
More importantly, obtaining a plane origin granted a shortcut to reaching the Heavenly Sovereign Realm. In ancient times, the Symbol Ancestor had ventured to the Heavenly Profound Continent via a planar passage in pursuit of this goal. Similarly, the Devil Emperor (Yimo Emperor) sought to obtain the plane origin to skyrocket his power.
As far as Mo Yu knew, the Dou Qi Continent lacked plane origins entirely. This explained why the Dou Qi Continent, as a lower realm, was weaker compared to the Heavenly Profound Continent.
If the Dou Di realm was equivalent to the Sovereign Realm of the Great Thousand World, then the Ancestral realm of the Heavenly Profound Continent corresponded to the Earth Sovereign Realm in the Great Thousand World—a stark contrast in levels.
It was only because Xiao Yan stayed on the Dou Qi Continent longer than Lin Dong, tied by emotional bonds and familial responsibilities, that the two maintained comparable strength upon entering the Great Thousand World.
In conclusion, plane origins were incredibly precious. Even Earth Sovereigns would go to great lengths to acquire one.
Thus, the Emperor-grade weapon prototype, containing one-tenth of a plane origin, was far more valuable than the Bodhisattva Ancient Tree in the Dou Qi Continent.
Seeing Mo Yu's delighted expression, the spirit smiled slightly and said, "Young friend, though you're still young, you've clearly seen much of the world. You must understand the value of this Emperor-grade weapon prototype. I will now gift it to you."
"Haha, thank you, senior!" Mo Yu didn't hesitate, clasping his hands in gratitude.
"No need to thank me. This was part of my promise to you. Without your help, I would've long been consumed by the demonic energy and followed my master into oblivion," the spirit said with a sigh.
Hearing this, Mo Yu remained silent for a moment before looking at the jet-black Emperor-grade weapon prototype. A hint of doubt flickered in his eyes as he asked softly, "Senior, what exactly is this prototype's function?"
Although he knew it was related to Emperor-grade weapons, the palm-sized, liquid-like object didn't match his image of a dominant and terrifying weapon.
"Hehe, that's simple. Young friend, do you carry a personal weapon?" The spirit's white brows twitched as it chuckled.
"A personal weapon?" Mo Yu froze momentarily before recalling something. Flipping his palm, he summoned a jet-black spear. The weapon radiated a sharp aura, resembling a slumbering black dragon.
Gently stroking the spear, Mo Yu's eyes filled with nostalgia.
This spear was none other than his loyal companion, the Divine Might Black Thunder Spear, which had accompanied him through countless battles.
Long before in the Jia Ma Empire, Mo Yu wielded this spear through the Magic Beast Mountain Range. Later, upon reaching the Central Plains, Mo Yu refined and upgraded the spear, earning widespread fame.
However, as Mo Yu's strength grew at an astonishing rate, the Divine Might Black Thunder Spear gradually failed to keep up. So, he concealed it deep within his Beast Ring.
In Mo Yu's heart, the Divine Might Black Thunder Spear would always be his weapon. He believed that one day, he would wield it again and continue his conquest across the vast world.
"This is your weapon, isn't it? Truly a fine spear! What is it called?" The spirit of the Heavenly Profound Treasure Hall asked, admiring the spear in Mo Yu's hand.
Although the Divine Might Black Thunder Spear's current grade was not high, its compatibility with Mo Yu was exceptional. The spirit could tell at a glance that Mo Yu had invested a great deal of emotion into the spear.
Typically, a person could only unleash seventy to eighty percent of a weapon's power. However, when Mo Yu wielded the Divine Might Black Thunder Spear, he could draw out one hundred percent, even surpassing that—this was the supreme realm of unity between man and weapon.
"This spear is called the Divine Might Black Thunder Spear," Mo Yu said with a solemn tone upon hearing the spirit's question.
"Good name!" The spirit of the Heavenly Profound Treasure Hall nodded in approval, then smiled. "As the saying goes, a good horse deserves a good saddle, a good ship deserves a good sail.
You, my young friend, are a heroic figure and should possess a weapon of exceptional quality. Since that's the case, I shall bestow upon this Divine Might Black Thunder Spear a blessing."
The spirit of the Heavenly Profound Treasure Hall smiled as it gazed at the spear in Mo Yu's hand. In the next moment, the emperor-grade weapon prototype before it began to tremble. Strange waves of energy emanated from the weapon prototype, as though it had come to life.
To Mo Yu's surprise, after a moment, the emperor-grade weapon prototype suddenly transformed into a mysterious shadow and, with lightning speed, rushed toward Mo Yu. To be precise, it was heading straight for the Divine Might Black Thunder Spear in Mo Yu's hand.
Faced with the terrifying speed of the emperor-grade weapon prototype, which seemed to break through space and even time, even Mo Yu, a Dou Sheng, was unable to react in time.
A moment later, when Mo Yu regained his senses, the emperor-grade weapon prototype had completely vanished, as though it had never existed. But soon after, Mo Yu looked down and noticed that there was still a faint aura of the emperor-grade weapon prototype lingering around the spear's shaft.
"This… Could it be… the emperor-grade weapon prototype has entered the Divine Might Black Thunder Spear?" Mo Yu was stunned and then, a look of surprise flashed across his eyes.
The reason the emperor-grade weapon prototype vanished before his eyes could only be explained by this.
"Hehe, indeed, the emperor-grade weapon prototype has already entered the spear you hold, so you need not be surprised," the spirit of the Heavenly Profound Treasure Hall said, grinning.
Hearing this, Mo Yu was momentarily stunned but soon calmed his mind. He looked at the spear in his hand, then seemed to have guessed something. He raised his head and looked at the spirit of the Heavenly Profound Treasure Hall in surprise.
"Could it be that the emperor-grade weapon prototype cannot give birth to an emperor-grade weapon on its own, and must instead fuse with another weapon to cultivate a true emperor-grade weapon?"
Upon hearing Mo Yu's words, the spirit of the Heavenly Profound Treasure Hall was also taken aback. Then it looked at Mo Yu with admiration and said, "Young friend, you truly are insightful. In such a short time, you have understood the emperor-grade weapon prototype so thoroughly."
"That's right. While the emperor-grade weapon prototype is the result of the master's efforts, it is not a true emperor-grade weapon. It holds no inherent power. However, that does not mean the emperor-grade weapon prototype lacks value.
The greatest function of the emperor-grade weapon prototype is that once it merges with any weapon, it can nurture that weapon into a true emperor-grade weapon.
The master envisioned that the emperor-grade weapon prototype was the key to forging the strongest emperor-grade weapon.
If the emperor-grade weapon prototype were to fuse with an emperor-grade weapon, it would allow the emperor-grade weapon to continue to grow, producing an unprecedented, even more powerful weapon—perhaps even surpassing the limits of emperor-grade weapons.
Unfortunately, the master's plan was never completed, as he perished before it could come to fruition," the spirit of the Heavenly Profound Treasure Hall explained slowly.
After finishing, the spirit of the Heavenly Profound Treasure Hall looked again at the Divine Might Black Thunder Spear in Mo Yu's hand and said, "Though this spear's grade is low, it seems a bit wasteful to fuse it with the emperor-grade weapon prototype. However, I can see that this spear is highly compatible with you.
So, compared to fusing it with a higher-grade weapon that may not suit you, the Divine Might Black Thunder Spear is undoubtedly the best choice for you."
Mo Yu agreed wholeheartedly with the spirit's words.
The Divine Might Black Thunder Spear was not just his weapon; it was his companion. Together, they had weathered countless storms in the first half of his life.
Thus, if he were to choose a weapon to fuse with the emperor-grade weapon prototype, the first one that came to mind would undoubtedly be the Divine Might Black Thunder Spear.
"How long will the fusion of the Divine Might Black Thunder Spear and the emperor-grade weapon prototype take?" Mo Yu asked, gently caressing the spear in his hand while looking at the spirit of the Heavenly Profound Treasure Hall.
As Mo Yu stroked the spear, he was amazed to feel it trembling like a fetus in motion, as though it were about to give birth to a new life, undergoing a new transformation.
When the fusion of the Divine Might Black Thunder Spear and the emperor-grade weapon prototype was complete, the emperor-grade weapon would be reborn.
At that time, the entire continent would witness the majestic might of an emperor-grade weapon!
"If the Divine Might Black Thunder Spear were a ninth-grade weapon, the fusion process would be much faster—probably just two years. However, given that the Divine Might Black Thunder Spear's current grade is too low, the process will take much longer," the spirit of the Heavenly Profound Treasure Hall mused.
"Much longer? Does that mean five years or even eight to ten years?" Mo Yu frowned slightly.
This was indeed a long time. By then, Hun Tiandi might even break through to Dou Di.
However, Mo Yu quickly shook his head, realizing that he was being too greedy.
Acquiring an emperor-grade weapon was already an immense gain. Even if it took ten or more years, what did it matter?
An emperor-grade weapon could rival a Dou Di. When that time came, even without breaking through to Dou Di himself, he would still have a decent chance against someone like Hun Tiandi.
Thinking of the nearly ten ninth-grade weapons in his Beast Ring, along with the Divine Might Black Thunder Spear that had the potential to grow into an emperor-grade weapon, Mo Yu felt his harvest was more than enough. He bowed his hands to the spirit of the Heavenly Profound Treasure Hall, smiling.
"Thank you, senior, for your generous gift!"
