Chapter 640: The Limitless
Dao Soldiers were what Northern Cang called spirit treasures, weapons that had developed a certain degree of spiritual intelligence.
The Jingyang Blessed Land divided Dao Soldiers into nine levels. Most of Northern Cang's spirit treasures fell into only the first or second level. Constrained by forging techniques and ore quality, producing a first or second-level Dao Soldier was already considered quite good.
As for the so-called Heaven-Connecting Spirit Treasures such as the Tianbao Tower and the Thirteen-Grade Pure World Lotus Platform, these were in fact also Dao Soldiers, and could be considered sixth-level Dao Soldiers. However, these Heaven-Connecting Spirit Treasures were extremely special, appearing to have been bestowed by the Dao Court, with complex relationships behind them.
A sixth-level Dao Soldier was already an extraordinarily rare treasure.
And beyond the sixth level lay a qualitative leap. A seventh-level Dao Soldier could give rise to an instrument spirit, earning it another name: a Spiritually Aware Dao Soldier.
A Spiritually Aware Dao Soldier was no longer a simple weapon but a being with its own awareness and consciousness.
Chen Qing's thoughts turned, and his gaze moved from Lu Yi back toward the new mark at forty zhang.
The mark was about three inches deep, its edges smooth, clearly a sword mark.
For this Lu Yi to leave such a deep mark at forty zhang, his strength was indeed remarkable.
