<h4>Chapter 1143: Invisible Gloves</h4>
“Heavens! It turns out that the most powerful part of the Colorless Sky Cow is its horn!” Radix eximed, his eyes widening in shock.
Xia Fei did not expect that the strange Colorless Sky Cow’s horn would actually have such a mysterious reaction, cutting open thatindestructible skin almost at once. It must be said that even Xia Fei’s White Dragon’s Screech had failed to do just that.
Xia Fei regarded that pink horn with astonishment as he inspected it closely.
“Just how did you do it? If you say that the Colorless Sky Cow’s horn has a strong decaying effect on the skin, then shouldn’t your hand be burned off by it, but your hand clearly didn’t have any burns even after you cut the skin with the horn,” Radix said, curious.
“I poured a bit of Spirit Energy into this horn,” Xia Fei said. He then proceeded to cut the hide with the horn once more, but this time he purposely did not insert any Spirit Energy. The pink horn did not show any of the effects it had disyed moments ago. Like using chalk to draw across a ckboard, all they heard was an ear-piercing screech.
“Looks like I was right. This horn is just a normal item without any Spirit Energy. As long as someone feeds it Spirit Energy, it can turn into a powerful de that is able to cut through metal!” Xia Fei marveled.
Regardless, this discovery had solved the most important problem at present for Xia Fei. While he did obtain an amazing raw material, he was unable to process it for his soul weapon.
The work on a pair of closebat gloves had, thus, finally been started. This was a whole new type of soul weapon. The difficulty of the forging process was nothing too tough, and what mattered the most was who would use it after.
Against the powerful dark energy, only a madman would dare to engage in a melee fight. Theunique closebat gloves were something Xia Fei intended for the Skywing wolfpack. Thoserades of his were the maniacs among maniacs! They were the only ones who could utilize the potential of closebat soul weapons to their full capacity; anyone else would hardly be able to understand the profundity behind these weapons and do them justice.
His Spirit Energy rapidly got used, but Xia Fei did not feel that it was a waste at all. Just thinking of how greatly the strength of those Skywings madmen would skyrocket with these gloves, Xia Fei even found himself chuckling as he worked. There was nothing more reliable than thoserades of his, and helping them was as good as helping himself.
Two dayster, fiftyplete sets of closebat gloves had been forged. At present, the Skywing n did not have too many Founders, so fifty sets were already more than enough for them to use.
It was only the pair of transparent gloves, which he had forged with the Colorless Sky Cow’s hide, that did not look like a sess. It was like a sea sponge soaking in water, constantly absorbing Spirit Energy from Xia Fei.
“How much Spirit Energy has been used by you?” Radix asked nervously.
Now, he knew just how important Spirit Energy was for Xia Fei and felt very concerned about the reserves thetter had left.
“About 130 standard units. A hundred have gone to all the normal gloves, and thirty to this pair of transparent gloves alone,” Xia Fei replied solemnly.
“Thirty?! So the normal gloves only consumed two standard units each, while this one has actually absorbed thirty so far?!” Radix eximed in his astonishment.
Xia Fei let out a bitterugh. “I’m afraid that this is just the beginning. Even now, I have yet to see this pair of transparent gloves take shape.”
Radix pouted. It was not easy to obtain Spirit Energy, yet this transparent set of gloves took so much Spirit Energy to the point of ridiculousness. However, thinking back, the more Spirit Energy being absorbed by a soul weapon, the more powerful it would turn out to be once it took a form. Thus, everyone was waiting with bated breath to find out just what kind this pair of transparent gloves would be.
....
In the evening of the fourth day.
Xia Fei was on the verge of losing his mind. This was because he had used up more than 200 Spirit Energy standard units on the pair of transparent gloves!
Those were two hundred standard units! Someone could easily destroy an entire star system if they unleashed that much energy at once!
Xia Fei originally earned 767 Spirit Energy standard units from the Spiritualist Association, and it waspletely unheard of for someone to use up a full three hundred units in such a short time! Xia Fei could not help but wonder if he should stop this seemingly endless work that he had gotten himself into.
The forging of soul weapons emphasized on doing it all in one fell swoop. Thus, if Xia Fei stopped now, it meant that the two hundred standard units he had already invested would go down the drain; in the worst-case scenario, such a move could even end up wasting those precious raw materials.
“I’m going to see this to the end!” Xia Fei told himself.
People might easily hesitate when facing such a situation and give up halfway, but that was not how Xia Fei did things!
202…
203…
204…
205!
Spirit Energy was rapidly being consumed till—
A strange yet violent reaction suddenly urred to the set of transparent gloves! A great amount of energy surged wildly, catching Xia Fei off guard and sending him mming onto The Silver Specter’s metal wall!
*Bang*
*Whoosh whoosh*
At the same time, two figures dashed into Xia Fei’s room; they were none other than the two Great Spiritualists, Fuchen and n.
“What happened?!”
“We were by the door moments ago when we heard amotion in your room. You gave us a fright!” Both Fuchen and n spoke one after the other.
They saw a rather exhausted Xia Fei wipe his mouth with his sleeve and then heard him say, “I seeded! The soul weapon is nowplete! Still, that huge reaction far outstripped what I expected!”
Fuchen and n were stunned. They hurriedly looked around and saw that the entire room was empty. Where was this soul weapon?
“Xia Fei, are you daydreaming? There’s nothing in this room at all.” Fuchen shrugged.
n’s expression turned strange, and then his hand shot out. “Wait a sec. Don’t you smell that scent of something burning? I can even hear small crackling sounds!”
Fuchen pricked up his ears and listened carefully. “Yes, I do hear the strange sound of something crackling. It seems to being from that corner.”
Xia Fei picked himself up from the ground and excitedly told the two men, “Yes, you two can’t see it because these gloves arepletely transparent; it has no color, basically making it invisible!”
“Invisible? A pair of invisible gloves?” Fuchen and n felt surprised, finding it to be unbelievable.
...
Peace returned to Xia Fei’s room. The three sat cross-legged on the floor and stared forward. It did not look like there was anything there, but the three knew that a pair of invisible closebat gloves was in front of them.
“This is interesting. That Colorless Sky Cow sure was an odd creature. Never mind the fact that making this cost you more than two hundred Spirit Energy standard units, it even turned into an invisible soul weapon. Fuchen, have you seen anything like this before?” n asked betweenughter.
Fuchen shook his head. “I haven’t, nor have I heard anything like it. Since Xia Fei forged this following standard procedure, this must be an issue with that Colorless Sky Cow. We don’t have much understanding of the Fufeng n; I’m afraid that we’ll only be able to understand this matter if we ask that n’s core nsmen.”
n concurred. “You’re right. I’m afraid that that Colorless Sky Cow was a creature born with a gic mutation and was somewhere between a Divine Beast and Holy Beast in terms of level. It’s probably very strong, just that it unfortunately encountered Xia Fei’s ambush, so it failed to demonstrate its full strength before dying. We’ve always assumed that it was a mutation of the Spirit Horned Rhinoceros, but while it’s true that it has a rather strange horn, it’s actuallypletely different from a Spirit Horned Rhinoceros.”
Fuchen patted Xia Fei on his shoulder. “In any case, you got yourself a very good soul weapon. Equip it all the time as no one will even notice that it’s there.” The gloves had been quiet after that initial explosion.
n also quipped, “Soul weapons that people can see inevitably stand out, but soul weapons that no one can see are lethal! Cherish these invisible gloves, for I doubt if there’s a second pair of such. Given your style ofbat and personality, you’ll perhaps be the best at disying its full potential.”
Xia Fei nodded. Anyone could tell just how precious these gloves were. It was just that he still had to do some experimenting to find out just what sort ofbat power they possessed.
“The two of you came searching for me for a reason. Did something happen?” Xia Fei suddenly recalled what Fuchen had said and asked.
“Little Goldie’s back. It’s ying with Furball on themand deck at the moment,” Fuchen informed.
...
“Little Goldie?!” Xia Fei shouted as he dashed to themand deck. All he saw was Furball and Little Goldie biting each other; naturally, the two were not really fighting but were just having a very yful romp.
*Whoosh*
The moment Little Goldie heard its master call its name, it went hurtling right at Xia Fei’s side, diving into his open arms, disying great affection.
Little Goldie had aplished his task, safely making his return to the Law Realm. Xia Fei was of course delighted. It appeared that the seal was notpletely sturdy, for even Little Goldie could make its way past that.
Xia Fei took the spatial ring, which contained messages, leaving Furball and Little Goldie to resume their roughhousing. Furball, who was already a level 8 Holy Beast, tied or was slightly stronger than Little Goldie or Peacock Blue. That was why its attitude had changed immensely. In front of Little Goldie, it acted like a legendary expert, and given how simpleminded Little Goldie was, it naturally fell for this act, bing Furball’sckey as a corory.
“How’s things on their side?” Fuchen asked.
“Avril agreed to my engagement proposal.” Xia Feiughed. “My friends truly gave me face and threw a grand gesture on my behalf.”
n smiled and congratted Xia Fei, while Fuchen shook his head. “I was asking about theirbat strength. How many Founder-tier warriors are there in the Law Realm right now?”
Xia Fei replied, “Not quite bad. Under the Aurora n’s golden de, Hosu’s direction, the Law Realm’sbat might has been rising rapidly. Since ancient times, the Law Realm has never had anyck of good warriors. Too bad those d*mn Founders colluded with the Inverse, using all means to suppress the Law Realm inhabitants’ strength.
“With the suppression gone, the Law Realm experienced a round of explosive growth! Apparently, more than fifty warriors broke through to the Founder tier! Just my Skywing n alone has eleven.”
Fuchen nodded. “That’s interesting. Now I’m really curious how they managed to get this explosive growth like what you said. After all, I’ve never been beyond the Alpha Universe all my life.”
n also felt rather excited at the prospect. The Cosmic Gate leading to the Law Realm had always remained hidden; it was also among the rarely seen unstable sorts. Usually,breaking out of a Cosmic Gate was by no means an easy feat, and so n and Fuchen were both very interested in traveling to another universe to look. Though the Law Realm was substantially lower in level than the Alpha Universe, it was still an unfamiliar universe, and being able to traverse through a Cosmic Gate was already considered an important step to Great Spiritualists like n and Fuchen.
“Set a date so that we can all coordinate and have the Inverse wiped from the very stars they inhabit!” Killing intent suddenly radiated strongly from Fuchen as he growled. “We’re definitely snatching away those pairs of golden eyes!”
