Chapter 482: The Perfect Sword Case

Looking at the cultivation of Xuan Jin, Zhang Nuo felt an indescribable joy in his heart! A Seventh Rank Spirit Beast! This was equivalent to the level of a human cultivator at the Nascent Soul Early Stage. Such terrifying strength, if it could participate in battle, would surely be an indelible force!

As for the 'Qiongqi Beast', through its efforts over these past few years, it had also advanced to the level of a Fifth Rank Spirit Beast. He believed that with time, it would also make a breakthrough. If this beast also advanced to a Seventh Rank Spirit Beast, then in future battles, he might not even need to take action himself; just releasing them would be enough to settle things!

Seeing the reverie on Zhang Nuo's smiling face, Xuan Jin was somewhat puzzled. What exactly was this master thinking about?

"Master!"

A soft call pulled Zhang Nuo's thoughts back! With a shift of his mind, he remembered the purpose for letting Xuan Jin go out!

"Have you found the Mysterious Crystal Stones?"

"I have not failed the master's trust! In these years of traveling across the Immortal Illusion Continent, I have found many mineral veins!"

Hearing this from Xuan Jin, Zhang Nuo was even more delighted. On this Immortal Illusion Continent, there were countless precious minerals, far stronger than those on the Tianyuan Continent!

Xuan Jin grabbed something with one hand inside his robe sleeve, as if he had caught something, then brought his hand before Zhang Nuo and slowly opened it. There, quietly lying in his hand, was a Green Mysterious Crystal Stone!

Zhang Nuo's eyes widened, as if he could not believe it! Previously, he had thought that if Xuan Jin went out this time, he would at most be able to bring back Black Mysterious Crystal Stones, but he had not expected them to be green!

Among the Five-Colored Profound Crystal Stones, white was the lowest grade, followed by black, green, yellow, and purple! The quality of the Green Mysterious Crystal Stone was ranked in the middle, but for Zhang Nuo's Nine Dragon Sword Case, it should be enough!

Before Zhang Nuo's excitement had passed, Xuan Jin's other hand flipped over as well, palm spreading open, and a large quantity of White Profound Crystal Stones appeared from it!

The Green Mysterious Crystal Stone was only half the size of a fist, while those White Profound Crystal Stones were each a full fist in size! Having obtained such a large quantity of crystals all at once, Zhang Nuo could not remain calm no matter what!

"Great! That's great!"

Stepping down from the stone bed, Zhang Nuo took the stones from Xuan Jin's hand and kept playing with them!

"Master! I can only produce this much for now! There is still a large amount of metal in my body that I haven't digested, so I need to cultivate for a period of time. During this time, I hope Master will not let me come out!"

"This is enough! You should rest well!"

Zhang Nuo took the Spirit Beast Bag from his bosom, and Xuan Jin turned into a streak of Golden Light and drilled inside! As soon as this fellow entered the Spirit Beast Bag, he directly reverted to his original form and lay curled up inside, sleeping soundly!

Just scanning with his Divine Sense to see that there was no abnormality, Zhang Nuo put the Spirit Beast Bag back into his bosom. Looking at the Green Mysterious Crystal Stone in his hand, he couldn't wait to repair the Nine Dragon Sword Case!

Sitting back down on the stone bed, Zhang Nuo flipped one hand lightly, and the Nine Dragon Sword Case flashed out.

"Senior! You can come out!"

As soon as Zhang Nuo's voice fell, a red light flashed out from the Sword Case, and after landing, it transformed several times into the appearance of Chunyangzi!

"Kid Zhang, your luck is truly good! You actually obtained a Green Mysterious Crystal Stone. It seems this Nine Dragon Sword Case finally has a day to shine!"

With a smile on his face, Zhang Nuo also felt some excitement in his heart! This Magic Treasure had already been damaged while in Chunyangzi's hands! It had never been repaired, but he hadn't expected that today it would be restored to its original state in his own hands!

"I will start repairing the Sword Case now! Please wait a moment outside, Senior!"

Although this Cave Abode of Zhang Nuo's could not compare to the Purple Mansion Immortal Cave, the Spiritual Qi was not too weak; it should be no problem for Chunyangzi to stay outside for a while!

"I am fine! I also want to see what this Sword Case looks like after it is fully repaired!"

Looking expectantly at the Sword Case in Zhang Nuo's hand, Chunyangzi said indifferently.

Putting those White Profound Crystal Stones into his Storage Bag, only the half-fist-sized Green Mysterious Crystal Stone remained in Zhang Nuo's hand. He moved the Sword Case in his other hand slightly toward the Green Mysterious Crystal Stone!

He saw the nine dragon carvings on the surface of the Sword Case emit a dragon roar at almost the same time, winding and swimming uncertainly on the surface of the Sword Case! This was the first time Zhang Nuo had seen the nine dragon carvings exhibit such behavior; it seemed the Green Mysterious Crystal Stone was indeed no ordinary object!

At the same time, green ripples began to be released from the surface of the Green Mysterious Crystal Stone. Those faint rays of light were like mist, unable to escape the might of the nine dragon carvings at all! They were all sucked into their mouths!

"Awoo! Awoo!"

The dragon roars became louder and louder. Fearing that he would disturb Su Haizhen and Ye Yuemiao in the Cave Abode, Zhang Nuo hurriedly reached out and cast two incantations, setting up a layer of Restriction around his Stone Chamber!

*Swish! *

The dragon carvings suddenly leaped off the surface of the Sword Case and opened their large mouths to bite at the Green Mysterious Crystal Stone! In an instant, the incredibly hard Mysterious Crystal Stone had a small piece bitten off by this dragon carving! At the same time, the remaining dragon carvings also leaped out one after another!

Before long, this Mysterious Crystal Stone had been carved up by the nine dragon carvings! Returning to the surface of the Sword Case, layers of pale green light began to appear on the bodies of the dragon carvings! As they swam, the entire Sword Case also became filled with brilliant green light! The soft light contained immense energy, and the nine dragon carvings were as if alive, vivid and lifelike!

Zhang Nuo looked at everything before him in astonishment. He could hardly believe that just this little bit of Green Mysterious Crystal Stone could cause such a huge change in the Sword Case in a short time!

As the swimming speed of the dragon carvings increased, the Sword Case completely turned into a ball of green light, slowly rising from Zhang Nuo's palm and hovering in the middle of the Stone Chamber!

Chunyangzi narrowed his eyes slightly; it was also his first time seeing the effect of a Green Mysterious Crystal Stone! Besides being shocked, there was also some curiosity in his heart! What exactly would the Nine Dragon Sword Case look like after being fully repaired?

The sound of dragon roars continued to emanate from within that ball of green light. Zhang Nuo sensed the changes within the green light; it seemed these nine dragon carvings still needed power!

Reaching out to take that White Profound Crystal Stone from his Storage Bag, he thought for a moment, split it in two, kept one piece, and tossed the other into the green light!

This time, neither Zhang Nuo nor Chunyangzi saw how the White Profound Crystal Stone disappeared! It just flashed and vanished completely!

A high-pitched dragon roar once again resounded through this Stone Chamber! The ball of green light in mid-air erupted with faint light once more! Occasionally, a dragon carving would poke its head out from the green light, then disappear back inside again!

Zhang Nuo was surprised to discover that these dragon carvings had shed their previous colors and had become somewhat similar to the legendary divine beast, the 'Dragon'!

Turning his head to look at Chunyangzi, Chunyangzi's old face was becoming increasingly solemn! He looked at the ball of light in mid-air with some disbelief, as if he were pondering something in his heart!

The repair process of the Sword Case lasted for nearly half an hour. Gradually, the ball of light began to change from green to white, and in the end, it turned completely white!

The one-foot-sized ball of light hovered quietly in the void, no longer moving! Zhang Nuo was somewhat surprised. According to the Divine Sense Mark he had left in the Magic Treasure, the Nine Dragon Sword Case was fully repaired! But why had it not returned to its original appearance?

Reaching out to beckon lightly, he saw the white ball of light fall into Zhang Nuo's hand, feeling as if it were weightless, with almost no heft at all!

"This..."

After feeling the sensation of the Sword Case in his hand, Zhang Nuo found it somewhat hard to accept. He even suspected that the Sword Case had been damaged because of the Green Mysterious Crystal Stone!

But when his Divine Sense entered the white ball of light, his concerns vanished completely! Inside the ball of light, the eighty-one Flying Swords still existed, looking somewhat ethereal! However, bursts of powerful might proved that they had fully recovered to their peak state!

With another movement of his Divine Sense, the numerous Flying Swords flashed out from the white ball of light one after another. In the blink of an eye, they filled the entire Stone Chamber! Looking at the numerous Flying Swords before them, both Chunyangzi and Zhang Nuo were stunned!

They looked at each other, neither understanding the reason for this!

They saw that the size of the Flying Swords had not changed, but the sword bodies had undergone a qualitative change! The sword bodies, which were originally like metal, had now become transparent! It was as if they were made of water!

What kind of power was this, that it could turn metallic Flying Swords into a transparent form!

"Senior! This... what exactly is going on?"

Zhang Nuo was bewildered! Chunyangzi was also holding his chin with one hand, deeply puzzled!

Could this be what the Nine Dragon Sword Case looked like after being fully repaired?

Seeing that the former owner of this Sword Case was also at a loss, Zhang Nuo pinched a magic seal in his hand! He saw one of the Flying Swords flash with spiritual light and strike toward the wall of the Stone Chamber!

Boom!

A loud boom echoed, and a deep pit half a zhang in size appeared on the wall of the Stone Chamber! Fearing he might disturb his two beloved wives inside the stone, Zhang Nuo had only exerted a tiny bit of his cultivation power! Yet it was precisely this tiny bit of power that produced the astonishing effect before him!

The form of the Flying Sword had changed! Even its might had increased significantly! Looking at the Flying Sword, which was as transparent as water, Zhang Nuo finally felt that the current form of the Nine Dragon Sword Case was its most primordial form!

With a stir of his Divine Sense, the numerous Flying Swords returned into the ball of light, where nine silver dragons could be seen swimming and stopping within the light, looking extremely joyful!

"This should be the primordial form of the Sword Box!"

Looking at the Sword Box in Zhang Nuo's hand, Chunyangzi said affirmatively!

"When I obtained the Nine Dragon Sword Case back then, it was already slightly damaged, though it did not affect its use! And when the Sword Box came into your hands, it was still in that same appearance, so in both of our subconscious minds, we had fixed our perception of the Sword Box's form! But it seems we were both wrong!"

Chunyangzi's words did indeed have some merit! After hearing them, Zhang Nuo nodded repeatedly!
