Chapter 1030: Optional Tasks

When the Zixia Sword came into contact with Lin Fang's blood, it suddenly changed. Unlike Lin Tian who had to drip blood and draw talismans to force it to open, this time the blood was just stained and immediately absorbed automatically.

"What's going on? Isn't there any danger?" Lu Xuan said worriedly, looking at Lin Fang's concerned face, afraid that she would be in danger.

"It's okay, it's normal." Lin Tian gave a reply, which immediately made everyone relieved.

Looking at the sword that turned like a living thing, Lin Tian comforted them that it was normal. In fact, he was also wondering why this happened.

However, he could clearly feel that the sword was not dangerous when it happened like this. Instead, it was like a person, releasing kindness and joy.

It was strange. It was just a sword, but Lin Tian could actually feel a happy emotion from it, and in that emotion, there was actually a thick sadness hidden.

"Tao, what's going on?" Lin Tian could only ask the Taotie system in his heart, after all, all this was its idea.

"This is the spirit sword recognizing its master. It has waited for this moment for too long. After thousands of years of waiting, it finally waited for a satisfactory candidate. It is happy." Taotie system said.

As soon as it finished speaking, the Purple Cloud Sword whistled and suddenly broke free from Lin Tian and Lin Fang's hands, flying into the air and dancing.

"Wow! It can move by itself!" Lin Fang clapped her hands.

At this moment, the Purple Cloud Sword was like a happy child, dancing in the air, flying everywhere, making the whole bamboo forest look beautiful.

It must be said that the Purple Cloud Sword is not only beautiful, but also beautiful when dancing.

Looking at the sword energy flying freely in the air, each of them is a different color, not a pure color, but a mixed, intoxicating color.

Lin Tian and others stared at the sky in a trance. They couldn't help but have an idea in their hearts. If they use this sword to kill the enemy, the enemy will see this light and shadow before dying. Even if they die, they will leave with a smile.

Among the people present, watching the dance of the Purple Cloud Sword, except for Lin Tian who remained alert, the others were intoxicated by it.

Lin Tian couldn't help but nodded. It was one thing that the Purple Cloud Sword did not show any dangerous intentions. Similarly, Lin Tian felt that the Purple Cloud Sword definitely had the magical effect of confusing the enemy and distracting the enemy when killing.

After a long time, it seemed to be full of fun. The Purple Cloud Sword flew back with a whoosh and got into the scabbard by itself.

"Not bad, very..." Lin Tian held the Purple Cloud Sword and wanted to praise it, but his hand shook violently. The Purple Cloud Sword actually broke free from his hand and flew directly in front of Lin Fang.

"Wow! You like me, don't you? Do you want me to touch you?" Lin Fang was very happy to see this scene, and said to it as if talking to a person.

"Don't be silly, how can it understand human language." Lin Tian muttered, but what happened next was like a slap in the face.

I saw that the Zixia sword actually nodded like a person, and the hilt of the sword pointed forward towards Lin Fang, and then it rubbed against Lin Fang's arms like a kitten acting coquettishly to its owner.

Lin Fang happily hugged it in her arms and gently stroked it with infinite love.

"Wow, so obedient, so cute, I want to touch it too!" Bu Mengting also liked it very much and stretched out her little hand to touch it.

But who would have thought that the originally well-behaved Zixia sword, sensing Bu Mengting's hand approaching, actually dodged it in a flash.

Lin Tian, ​​Lu Xuan, and Li Li all tried it. Except when Lin Tian touched it, the Zixia sword would reluctantly let him touch it, but Lu Xuan and Li Li could not touch it at all.

Lu Xuan didn't believe it, and he jumped up and down to grab the Zixia Sword. Later, the Zixia Sword seemed to be angry, and directly hit his head with a scabbard, hitting him with stars.

Moreover, Lin Tian also found a situation. Perhaps because he awakened the Zixia Sword with blood, it did not resist him, but Lin Tian held it in his hand and tried for a long time, and found that no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't pull out the sword!

Lin Tian reluctantly threw the Zixia Sword that he couldn't pull out for a long time to Lin Fang. After escaping from Lin Tian's clutches, the Zixia Sword actually made a humming sound, as if it had suffered some grievances and got into Lin Fang's arms and rubbed it.

"Fuck! You actually despise me! Have you forgotten who dug you out of the ground! Forget who awakened you with precious blood!" Lin Tian said with a sneer.

Upon hearing this, the Zixia Sword went deeper into Lin Fang's arms, and the humming sound it made was full of grievances and fear.

"Okay, you are not allowed to bully it!" Lin Fang put her hands on her hips and said to Lin Tian fiercely, then touched the Zixia Sword and said like coaxing a baby: "Okay, be good, don't be afraid, if he bullies you, I will help you beat him!"

The Zixia Sword stopped its sobbing humming and happily turned a somersault with its bare hands.

Lin Tian rolled his eyes and watched Lin Fang holding the Zixia Sword, sometimes swinging the sword by herself, sometimes speaking or using gestures to command the Zixia Sword to attack or make various movements. He couldn't help but curiously asked the Taotie system in his heart:

"Are all spiritual swords so magical? How does this sword compare to my Killing God Sword? It feels more powerful than my sword."

"This Zixia Sword is better than the master's mind. If it is combined with swordsmanship in the later stage, the power will be stronger, but in terms of sharpness alone, it is not as good as the Killing God Sword."

"Also, strictly speaking, it is not a spiritual weapon, but a semi-horcrux." Taotie system said.

"Semi-horcrux? What is that?" Lin Tian was confused.

"As the name suggests, a semi-horcrux means half a soul weapon. Above the spiritual weapon, there are more powerful soul weapons than it."

"Spiritual weapons can only absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth by themselves. Different objects have different functions, and then they are used by people. They also have a certain wisdom and can listen to people's commands. People without cultivation can also use them easily."

"But the soul weapon has its own mind, and it has a soul and self-awareness." Taotie system said.

"I understand, so the meaning of a semi-horcrux is that it has the potential to become a soul weapon, but it has not yet completely become a soul weapon, right?" Lin Tian answered.

"Yes and no." Taotie system said mechanically without giving any face.

"Horcruxes are indeed evolved from spirit weapons, and only a small number of spirit weapons have this qualification by chance, and it is not possible to succeed just by being qualified."

"So, spirit weapons are precious but not rare, while Horcruxes are really hard to come by."

"As for this Zixia sword, it was originally a Horcrux, but it chose to destroy itself, so that it lost its mind and became a semi-Horcrux with a trace of residual soul." At this point, I don't know if it was Lin Tian's illusion, he actually felt that the Taotie system's words were filled with sympathy and regret.

You know, the Taotie system is a product of technology. From the previous situation, it was very cold, and this was the first time.

"Why is that?" Lin Tian asked curiously. He felt that there must be a story behind this, and it was a very magical one.

"First, you only have the right to use me, and I don't need to tell you. Second, your current cultivation is still too low, and it's not good for you to know too much." The Taotie system said coldly.

"Damn!" Lin Tian couldn't help but roll his eyes, but from the words of the Taotie system, he realized that, from the meaning, there is a higher realm than the Fusion Realm in this world? Otherwise, with his half-step Fusion Realm, the cultivation level of the top few in the known world, no one dared to tell him that his cultivation level was too low.

However, no matter how Lin Tian asked indirect questions, the Taotie system kept silent about what the higher realm was.

However, the Taotie system said this to Lin Tian: "The reason why I guided you to dig out the Zixia Sword and taught you to awaken it is because there is a task. But now, I don't know whether I should tell you."

"What task? Just tell me." Lin Tian was a little strange. Every time the system gave a task, it was thrown directly to him. This was the first time it discussed it with him.

"This task is a serial task. Once it is started, a certain fate will occur. You will be involved in a dispute that has nothing to do with you."

"To be honest, I hope you take it, because it will be a good thing with infinite merits, but there is no reward for any power points after completing this series of tasks. You will definitely get a lot of treasures in it, such as the current Zixia Sword."

"However, you will fall into some unknown danger because of this. Even I can't see what it is. It is difficult to predict whether it will be a blessing or a curse in the end." Taotie system said.

Hearing it say this, Lin Tian was also stunned. He knew that every task given to him by the Taotie system from the beginning to now, although it was generated autonomously because of his behavior and contact, they were all things that were good for both people and himself.

But this time, according to the Taotie system, this task is definitely a matter of helping others, and because the Taotie system is set to only accept tasks related to beauties, it must be to help a big beauty.

However, this mission may not be a good thing for Lin Tian, ​​and it may even be dangerous to his life. Otherwise, the Taotie system would not hesitate so much and choose to discuss with Lin Tian.

"If that's the case, then I choose not to accept it." After thinking for a while, Lin Tian said directly.

He now has too many responsibilities and too many people to let go. He can't take risks for a vague thing.

"Okay, confirmed, this serial mission will not be opened." The Taotie system said mechanically, but Lin Tian could keenly perceive that it seemed a little melancholy and disappointed.

What kind of story is hidden behind this Zixia sword that can make a system without emotion and mechanical nature produce human emotions? Lin Tian couldn't help but feel curious.
