Chapter 340: Chapter 23: Spirit Mountain Ten Witches·Master of Blades (2/3)

The Ten Witches of Spirit Mountain is not actually a powerful organization.

The term "Ten Witches of Spirit Mountain" generally refers to ten great witches within the borders of Great Xia, strong enough to rival celestial gods.

Wu Xian is recognized as the leader of the Ten Witches of Spirit Mountain and was the first divine witch to be acclaimed as part of the "Ten Witches of Spirit Mountain".

Moreover, the brother of the Enlightened Six Witches, Wu Peng, is also one of the Ten Witches of Spirit Mountain, excelling in gathering herbs and making medicines.

In the eyes of some human gods, Wu Peng’s attainments in medicine are even on par with the fifth-generation Witch King, Wu Ling.

With this foundation, the other eight great witches of the Ten Witches of Spirit Mountain naturally also have their areas of expertise.

Wu Luo is the great witch among the Ten Witches of Spirit Mountain who is most skilled in combat and is the strongest war witch in Great Xia who commands weapons.

Before Wu Luo inherited the title of "Witch," he had forged countless weapons for his people, regarded as a symbol of "invincibility in battle."

All of this is because Wu Luo possesses an exceedingly special talent—weapon mastery.

No matter what weapon is in his hands, Wu Luo can control and use it perfectly, unleashing its greatest power.

This talent is somewhat similar to Li Boyang’s ability after awakening [Sword Heart Clarity].

However, unlike Li Boyang, Wu Luo’s ability is not innate mastery but rather understanding weapon usage through reading the experiences of successive owners.

Of course, this does not mean that Wu Luo’s ability is inferior to Li Boyang’s.

On the contrary, after reading the usage experiences of weapons, Wu Luo’s body also receives corresponding strength and augmentation.

For instance, with weapons like the "left-handed sword," which require special training to use.

The moment Wu Luo holds the left-handed sword, he naturally possesses a left arm honed through years of training.

Theoretically, as long as Wu Luo can obtain legendary weapons, he can recreate the lost techniques woven into the river of history by reading the experiences of their past owners.

Moreover, after inheriting the title of "Witch" and becoming one of the Ten Witches of Spirit Mountain, Wu Luo developed an extremely special witchcraft—Golden Spear Lord.

All weapons Wu Luo has come into contact with will be replicated and imprinted by him.

When he needs to use the weapon, it will grow out of his body.

This "grow" is not a metaphor but literal.

Weapons Wu Luo needs grow out from his flesh and bones, fully replicating the strength of their former owners.

Theoretically, any weapon that cannot kill Wu Luo will make him stronger.

The [Five Punishments’ Severity] used by Xiluo is, of course, no exception.

...........................

"So this is how you wield ’Five Punishments’ Severity’?"

Slowly withdrawing his hand from his chest, Wu Luo tentatively released his imitation [Five Punishments’ Severity].

As expected, Wu Luo’s [Five Punishments’ Severity] also soared, moving like a living thing at his will.

Moreover, it seems some kind of transformation is occurring in Wu Luo’s brain.

Whether it is divine power or telekinesis...

These are merely different names for the same ability, an instinct manifested after the primordial spirit awakens.

Yet now, Wu Luo has awakened the divine power to manipulate objects without yet forming a primordial spirit.

Clang! Clang! Clang!

As two identical [Five Punishments’ Severity] clashed in mid-air,

Even Xiluo couldn’t help but blink.

In that moment, it was difficult to tell which [Five Punishments’ Severity] was her own.

Fortunately, Xiluo reacted swiftly.

Upon realizing Wu Luo possessed the ability to replicate weapons, she immediately moved forward, opting for close-quarters combat.

In her half-human, half-god fierce beast form, her size could not compare to the giant-like Wu Luo.

But the power and prowess she displayed were not much inferior to the battle-hardened Wu Luo.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

Relying on her flight ability, Xiluo employed a hit-and-run tactic.

Each clash was extremely brief but forcefully compelled Wu Luo to adopt a defensive stance.

After several rounds, Xiluo succeeded once again in leaving a deep claw mark, down to the bone, on Wu Luo’s shoulder.

Clang!

Yet, just as Xiluo attempted to retreat,

A sudden clash of metal rang out from the claw mark.

The next moment, a sharp long blade shot out from the wound, nearly severing one of Xiluo’s arms.

Then came the second, third...

A myriad of peculiar blades sprouted from the wound, turning Wu Luo into an "iron porcupine."

"An annoying ability indeed..."

Frowning and leaping back, Xiluo detested opponents with a "counter-attack" ability.

This reminded her of Li Boyang’s [Body-Protecting Sword Qi].

The difference being that Wu Luo’s "counter-attack" was a tangible array of weapons, and he must first be injured for it to manifest.

"Haha, many people say that!"

"But in battle, one must resort to any means necessary, even turning oneself into an armory!"

Reaching up to withdraw a massive blade from his shoulder, Wu Luo then swung it violently.

Whoosh!

In an instant, the long blade cleaved through the air.

A terrifying burst of sword light and Qi scattered, instantly driving back the ghost gods attempting to exploit the opportunity for a sneak attack.

"This is the Wuluo Blade, a weapon from a great witch three hundred years ago."

"This blade carries a curse, causing any creature wounded by it to bleed incessantly..."

"So be cautious not to let me touch you in the upcoming battle!"

With a sinister smile cracking from the corner of his mouth, Wu Luo’s enthusiasm for battle grew fiercer.

He eagerly awaited Xiluo to bring forth more weapons he had not seen before, rather than choosing a quick victory like other great witches.

"Are you forcing me to use more magical treasures?"

Seeing through Wu Luo’s little scheme, Xiluo immediately grew infuriated.

She didn’t actually dislike battle maniacs like Wu Luo.

In fact, she even admired those who dedicated their lives to pursuing combat.

However, the implication in Wu Luo’s words was unmistakably that Xiluo could only qualify to battle him by relying on magical treasures.

"Kid, aren’t you a bit too arrogant!"

Her nails transformed into claws, her fang-like teeth gleaming coldly...

Xiluo fully unleashed her nature as an evil god, slashing out two sharp streaks of cold light with her claws.

Whoosh! Whoosh!

The cold light flashed and disappeared, not much inferior to Wu Luo’s prior sword light and Qi.

The key point being, Xiluo’s true body followed close behind, her claws harboring the violent "Five Punishment Qi."

"I told you, be wary of wounds when fighting me!"

Once again swinging his blade, Wu Luo’s massive body appeared incredibly agile at this moment.

Swinging, dodging, blocking, then counterattacking...

The entire process was seamless, fully showcasing what it meant to reach the pinnacle of martial arts.
