When this cluster of magical power is absorbed by the Thunder Sword, one can clearly see that, compared with just now, the Thunder Sword has noticeably been strengthened.

Seeing this scene, Wang Ping'an couldn't help swallowing and exclaimed with delight, "If I use the Technique a few more times, this Thunder Sword won't turn from a low‑level Sword Apparatus into a mid‑level Sword Apparatus, right?"

This thought arose when he saw an ordinary Sword Apparatus condensed from Sword Qi, which after using the Technique instantly matured into a Sword Apparatus.

That was a guess!

Although.

Since he acquired the Technique, he hasn't stopped applying it to Sword Apparatus; even the Sword Apparatus inside his body that transformed from Sword Qi into a Sword Apparatus was thanks to the Technique.

But seeing an ordinary Sword Apparatus grow into a Sword Apparatus still gave him a bit of a shock.

"So this is the truly formidable aspect of the Cultivation skill Technique, right?"

Wang Ping'an's face was full of unmistakable excitement.
