Chapter 1605: Chapter 1606 Failure Chapter 1605: Chapter 1606 Failure “There still exists a Weapon Spirit?” Song Jian stared at the long spear radiating golden light, his face displaying a look of surprise.
To know, every weapon that could give birth to a sentient spirit could be called a Spiritual Weapon, just like Song Jian's Sky-breaking Sword, which had a Weapon Spirit.
The sentient intelligence that emerged in swords was called a Sword Spirit, and in spears, it was known as a Spear Spirit, but whether it was a Sword Spirit or a Spear Spirit, they were both referred to as Weapon Spirits.
A weapon with a Weapon Spirit could play a significant role in combat. The longer a Weapon Spirit had existed, the greater its influence. It's like having an invisible combat partner fighting alongside you. Sometimes, the master could even let go of the weapon and allow it to fight the enemy on its own.
However, if the master died, the Weapon Spirit would also be severely damaged. Most Weapon Spirits would lose their sentience upon the death of their master, but the aura from the spear's Weapon Spirit was as potent as ever, seemingly unaffected, which greatly surprised Song Jian.
“Under the command of the Giant Spirit General of the Heavenly Palace's Battling Department, I, Wu Ren, am here. Shadow Demon, cease your arrogance, witness my power to annihilate you!”
A muffled figure resounded from within the long spear. In an instant, the spear flew out of the hands of the dead warrior, stabbing toward Song Jian.
Though the spear was seven or eight meters away, Song Jian felt a fierce gust of wind on his face, causing a tingling pain. With Song Jian's current defense, not even a regular sword strike could leave a white mark on him, let alone cause bleeding or pain.
The fact that he felt pain meant that his defense was broken. The spear's gust had already penetrated his defense. If he were actually hit, it would likely puncture a transparent hole through him.
Song Jian's feet pushed off the ground, his figure soaring like a dragon as his right hand swung out, the Sky-breaking Sword unleashing dazzling Sword Qi.
Clang~
The Sky-breaking Sword collided fiercely with the long spear, a metallic clang echoing to the heavens. Song Jian felt his wrist tremble, the Sky-breaking Sword almost slipping from his grasp.
Entangle!
Song Jian's wrist twisted, the Sky-breaking Sword spinning around the spear, immediately exerting a binding force as if countless threads were wrapping around the spear, pulling along with the momentum.
The uncontrolled spear, with a “whoosh”, flew in the direction of Song Jian's tug, plunging into the ground handle-deep.
A slight smile appeared on Song Jian's lips. Although a Weapon Spirit could exert great power without its master's control, its moves and attacks against an enemy were somewhat rigid. It was no match for Song Jian.
Boom!
An explosive sound erupted, the ground bursting open into a large hole. The spear shot up from the earth, its fierceness intensified as if enraged by Song Jian's strike.
Woosh~
The spear swept across like a dam breach. Song Jian dodged, and without waiting for the move to finish, the spear spun in mid-air, coming down on Song Jian with the weight of Mount Tai.
“A longer weapon has the advantage.” Under the spear's continuous attacks, Song Jian felt somewhat suppressed. Fortunately, the spear's movements were as rigid as a pre-programmed computer sequence, offering Song Jian a chance to catch his breath.
Clang, clang, clang, boom, boom~
Song Jian soared into the air, brandishing the Sky-breaking Sword and fighting the spear for over a dozen rounds without a clear winner. This was also because Song Jian did not use too powerful a technique, otherwise, he could have easily destroyed the still-sentient spear.
Boom, boom, boom~
After dozens more exchanges, Song Jian suddenly became a bit agitated. He immediately employed the Power of Law, enveloping the long spear within it. But a mere spear with a Weapon Spirit could not possibly withstand the power of the law.
Before long, every strike from the long spear was easily dodged by Song Jian. To the Weapon Spirit, it seemed as if the opponent could predict all of its moves and avoid them in advance. As for Song Jian, he could easily discern all the changes in the long spear within three seconds.
Boom!
Another slash from his sword struck the long spear, halting its attack in a succession of chops that caused fine cracks to appear on the surface of the spear, yet Song Jian controlled the force of each blow so delicately that each strike damaged the spear without completely ruining it.
The battle continued, lasting over half an hour within the Time Domain. Song Jian always maintained the upper hand; the spear's every assault failed to injure him, ending only in the Sky-breaking Sword chipping away at it, leaving it riddled with fissures.
In the end, the entire surface of the long spear was covered with cracks, appearing from afar like a porcelain vase about to shatter at the slightest touch.
At this point, Song Jian's gaze grew cold and stern. The damage sustained by the long spear seemed severe, but in reality, it was superficial. With some nurturing, it could fully recover. However, if he were to truly split the spear in two, that would be the end; even the Weapon Spirit inside would dissipate with the destruction of the spear.
Song Jian sought to subdue the long spear. He had been holding back, giving it chances time and again, but now, the spear showed no sign of surrendering, taking on a stance that it would rather be destroyed than submit.
This also kindled a hint of rage within Song Jian.
“Since you refuse to submit, then I shall destroy you completely!”
In an instant, the radiance of the Sky-breaking Sword streaked across like a long rainbow, slashing at the long spear. This strike, infused with chaotic Sword Qi, was so powerful that it could have chopped the spear in two even had it been intact and undamaged.
As if sensing the threat, the spear's surface suddenly emitted a brilliant light, and a phantom appeared in the air, wielding the spear in both hands as it charged towards Song Jian. This phantom bore the likeness of the previously undefeated war general standing tall even after death.
“Kill!”
A fierce cry echoed through the void as if the war general had come back to life, holding the long spear with a resolve that knew no retreat and charging at the enemy.
Song Jian, too, went all out, channelling all the chaotic Sword Qi into the Sky-breaking Sword. The dazzling grey sword light nearly solidified, bursting forth as if tearing through the heavens.
Boom!
A loud booming sound echoed out as the chaotic Sword Qi from the Sky-breaking Sword collided fiercely with the long spear. Song Jian's figure trembled; he could not help but step back twice, a look of surprise flashing across his eyes.
That the long spear could force Song Jian to retreat in a face-to-face battle demonstrated that its strike had touched the threshold of the Demi-God Level.
“I thought that war general was only of the Legendary Realm, but unexpectedly, he possessed Demi-God Level strength…” Song Jian thought to himself.
Whoosh~
The long spear, full of cracks, could no longer withstand the impact. It shattered completely, turning into a sky full of sparkling fragments. Song Jian looked up at these pieces with regret in his heart. A weapon capable of producing a Weapon Spirit was a true rarity, which was why he had gone to such lengths to try to tame it. However, he had not anticipated that the spear's Weapon Spirit would be so unyielding, preferring destruction over submission.
