Level Up in Martial World

"You said I should make you a weapon, and I gave it to you. Whether you can wield it or not is not my problem," elv\'s voice was tinged with a sneer and scorn for Lu Zhen.

"Damn it," Lu Zhen gritted his teeth as he caught the chain.

As expected, the moment he touched it, a violent shockwave sent him into the wall.

Boom!

Lu Zhen crashed through the old bamboo temple and collided with countless trees before he could finally regain his momentum.

"This…" his pupils dilated.

The chain seemed to become angry as it slithered while floating in the air in a dragon shape as if like a dragon.

"Let\'s fight then," Lu Zhen seethed with rage, increasing his power to the maximum and transforming into his Volgrith form almost instantaneously.

Roar!

A shockwave reverberated throughout the place as he jumped on the chain with a ruthless glint on his face.

The chains also seemed to be angered by the head-on confrontation with Lu Zhen, moving towards him like a dragon.

However, the moment Lu Zhen and the chain were about to collide, his crimson eyes gained a sneer.

"As expected of an inanimate object..." he moved to the side and caught the silver chain when it was about to be effective.

The chains, seeing this, huffed with anger, as if it was embarrassing for falling for Lu Zhen\'s tricks.

Without hesitation, the chains moved like a snake, dashing into the ground, making Lu Zhen, who was catching its body, rub against the ground, creating friction and causing his body to burn with a scalding pain.

It circled the ground for thirty minutes straight in a continuum, while Lu Zhen seemed to be enveloped in fire just from the sheer friction produced by the chain, whose speed was enough to break the sound barrier easily.

However, the chain was completely fine even after that, indicating its high quality.

The chain huffed with anger as it looked back at Lu Zhen with a smug smile. However, it vibrated as if stunned when it saw a casual Lu Zhen, who was just chilling at his own pace while tightly catching the chain.

"Did you really think this could hurt me?" a sneer formed on his face as he directly punched the chain, sending it to the ground.

With his Volgrith form, he increased his body weight to the maximum, causing the entire chain to be stuck to the ground.

The chain flailed around as if seeking resistance, but it couldn\'t even move from the sheer weight that Lu Zhen applied to his body, it failed around rigorously but he was unmoving like a mountain firmly pressing the chain to the ground.

He was already heavy even in his normal body form, but now that he was in his bloodline form, his weight could be said to have skyrocketed to a terrifying degree.

Lu Zhen could bet that even a first-stage martial artist\'s weight wasn\'t as heavy as his.

It wasn\'t an exaggeration to say that his body was heavier than Mount Everest.

At first, the chains resisted endlessly; however, as time passed, the chain\'s resistance began to diminish.

Finally, after a long time, the silver chain stopped all its resistance and fell to the ground with a thud.

However, Lu Zhen still wasn\'t satisfied. He looked at the chain with his golden eyes, carefully scrutinising it with his narrowed crimson gaze.

[Unnamed Chain] (Tamed)

[Grade: Heaven Grade] (Artefact Level)

[Remarks: An ordinary chain mixed with high-quality ingredients to form a terrifying artefact with its own consciousness and multiple abilities. The host may only be able to use one ability, as the others are too high-level for them. Even if the host can use it, the effect will be terrifying enough to potentially lead to their demise.]

Seeing this, Lu Zhen finally nodded his head with a relieved expression.

"Finally, I have tamed it." He stood up from the weapon and reverted back to his volgrith form by using his cultivation method.

The moment he let the chain float in midair again, but this time it was very gentle and wasn\'t in anger. Instead, it slowly went towards the hand of Lu Zhen and tenderly touched him.

"Eh, it wants my pat..." Lu Zhen was stunned as he could feel a strange connection to it, allowing the chain to communicate with him.

"Welp." With a strange expression on his face, he patted the chain.

As if it was a cute pet, it jumped up with happiness as it vibrated, producing a hearty smile-like sound.

Lu Zhen looked at it with a strange face; however, he just shrugged after a moment.

"Come to my waist now," he said, and the chain happily obliged, becoming smaller before wrapping around his waist and shoulder in a criss cross.

"Now it\'s time to deal with that old monster again…" Lu Zhen thought bitterly as he entered the temple again.

"You took more time than I expected; you are weak. So what is the favor you ask of me?"

Elv\'s voice sounded in his head, filled with the familiar mocking tone that he had already listened to previously.

"Favor? I am not asking for a favor. I will make a deal with you."

"Oh, what kind of deal?"

"I will return the books to you ahead of time; however, you need to set up a formation for me."

Lu Zhen smirked as he patiently waited for Elv\'s reply.

"It\'s a deal then, but what kind of formation are you talking about?"

"The one that only a fourth-tier and above mage could use: the Soul-Strengthening Divine Formation." Lu Zhen\'s eyes glinted.

"How did you know about that?"

"The books, of course," he said with an obvious expression, rolling his eyes up.
