Chapter 1884: Xuanming Bone Arrow!

Some are weapons endowed by nature, others are forged through cultivation.

Most importantly, Xuanming wanted to elevate his Xuanming Bone Arrow by three ranks—just reaching the level of "Heavenly Maiden Scattering Flowers" would suffice; he wasn't greedy.

Houtu also took out the Nine Heaven Soil.

"Please, Luo Fu Saint."

"Mine too, please."

Luo Fu looked at Houtu and Xuanming and couldn't help but smile; Houtu and Xuanming were still so endearing.

No matter what happened, Houtu and Xuanming must survive—that was Luo Fu's blessing to them, and his choice amid the great war between the Witch and Demon clans.

Nüwa and Fuxi were forbidden from interfering in the affairs of the Demon clan; Luo Fu did not belong to Honghuang, so he could also choose not to interfere.

But in that cave, Houtu and Xuanming had indeed helped him, so to repay that favor, Luo Fu planned to instruct the Witch clan.

Luo Fu took out the Saint Tongtian Stone and placed one in each of Houtu's and Xuanming's hands.

"Each of you takes one Saint Tongtian Stone; as long as you fuse it into your weapons, it will aid your ascension in rank."

"I know your primordial spiritual treasures have accompanied you since childhood and have never been replaced, so I won't force you to change them. If you wish to raise their rank, I will fulfill your request."

Zhu Jiuyin and Di Jiang were truly delighted.

The Zhi Chi Staff was Di Jiang's weapon.

Di Jiang had long been accustomed to using his weapon, and the Zhi Chi Staff had always matched the Chaos Bell in strength, so he had no desire to replace it.

Now, with Luo Fu's help, he truly need not replace it.

Di Jiang, the Ancestral Witch, said: "Luo Fu Saint, we owe you this great favor. Should any matter arise in the future, the Twelve Ancestral Witches will surely summon you at once!"

"No need for such formality."

Luo Fu thought for a moment and said: "Prepare a cauldron for alchemy, and a cave rich with spiritual energy—I will enter seclusion for two days."

"Luo Fu Saint, please wait a moment."

Zhu Jiuyin, upon hearing Luo Fu's words, glanced at Di Jiang and left the Pangu Hall.

These matters had always been handled by Zhu Jiuyin, and he did them exceptionally well—no other of the Twelve Ancestral Witches could match him.

Houtu took the Saint Tongtian Stone and examined it repeatedly, unsure how to use it.

Luo Fu guided Houtu's hands, helping him fuse the Saint Tongtian Stone into his Nine Heaven Soil: "This will fuse into it."

"How miraculous!"

"Marvelous, marvelous."

Since the incident with Hong Yun, Houtu had not been this joyful; seeing the Saint Tongtian Stone directly fuse into his weapon filled him with boundless delight.

Xuanming tried to imitate Luo Fu, attempting to fuse the Saint Tongtian Stone into his weapon—but failed.

"Luo Fu Saint, could you lend me a hand?" Xuanming asked, blushing as he looked at Luo Fu.

After helping Houtu, Houtu brought over his weapon—and his primordial spiritual treasure, under Luo Fu's aid, indeed rose three ranks.

For Xuanming's Xuanming Bone Arrow to achieve the form of "Heavenly Maiden Scattering Flowers," it would need to rise more than three ranks.

"Have you decided?"

Luo Fu asked: "The power of the Xuanming Bone Arrow lies in its texture, like jade bone. To take the form of 'Heavenly Maiden Scattering Flowers,' it must rise five ranks!"

Luo Fu said this to make Xuanming clearly understand the limits of his own strength.
