Chapter 41: Broken Star
"Huh? Merge with the chain?" Mu Chen was stunned. After letting out a soft "ah," he quickly clamped his mouth shut.
The Profound Old Ghost said, "This is the only way to save it. If it were completely unharmed, it could have transformed into a force within you, merging with your body to become part of your innate strength. It might have even restored your right arm. But it's extremely weak now and can't become your body's power. That's why this is our only option—to merge it with an external object and forge it into an Immortal Soldier."
"An Immortal Soldier?"
"That's right. When measuring a Martial Artist's strength, weapons are an indispensable component, in addition to their Cultivation Techniques and Combat Skills. For example, if a First-Ring Martial King possessed an Immortal Soldier, he could face a First-Ring Martial Sect and remain undefeated. In other words, you could challenge opponents above your own rank."
