Time passed slowly, half a day soon passed by, but Lin Feng and Li Shang were still in the same place and hadn’t moved the entire time.
Besides, apart from the wind blowing through the fortress, there was also a scorching hot Qi moving through the halls. The entire fortress was filled with an intense heat.
In the depths of the fortress, Lin Feng and Li Shang haven’t moved an inch. At that moment, Lin Feng’s eyes were closed and he intensely focused on his task. Besides, his face was starting to grow pale.
It was the most crucial moment in the fabrication of the banner. The emptiness tree in front of Lin Feng had already transformed into something which almost looked like the spiritual banner, but was still extremely large.
“Flames!” Shouted Lin Feng in a deep voice. In a flash, a terrifying sea of flames emerged from his body and rushed through the air. It immediately rushed towards the tree, the banner was still in its embryonic form.
“Bzzzzzzzzzzzz…….” A buzzing sound spread in the air. The banner was surrounded by flames, but the flames didn’t look like they would burn the banner. Instead, it formed a small crack in the middle of the banner.
“Emptiness tree… That small crack is the separate space, it contains the power of fire and space, it’s so difficult to pierce into it.” Whispered Lin Feng. Immediately after, he moved, and his soul started to move towards the banner.
It seemed like there was an army of small souls twining around the fire and using it to penetrate into the small crack.
A subtle cracking sound filled the air, and it seemed like the separate space was going to fracture. The myriad of surplus souls and the sea of flames penetrated into the banner. There were no more flames around the banner at all, but the fire Qi it had started to emit was scorching hot. There were no flames, but the fire Qi was monstrous.
“Soul Sacrifice!” Shouted Lin Feng. His face instantly turned deathly pale. The banner started shaking and immediately after, it started to shrink. It was now the size of a regular banner, and it seemed like a gentle breeze might blow it away. However, the banner suddenly unleashed an incredible fire Qi in retaliation.
“Fusion!” Lin Feng gnashed his teeth as the flames continued to fill the air. The banner was circling through the air as if it was caught in a hurricane.
“Done.” Lin Feng’s face was deathly pale, but he looked delighted. He had the feeling that he now had another arm. He could feel the banner as if it was part of his own body. It was the first time that Lin Feng had merged his soul with a weapon; it felt like he could move it as freely as he did his arms or legs.
Li Shang had given him the memory jade, and the instructions to create the banner.
Lin Feng stretched his arm and the banner shrunk to the size of his palm. It was miraculous.
“Emptiness trees are extremely mysterious.” Thought Lin Feng while putting his banner away. He turned to Li Shang and smiled.
“Lin Feng, you’re good at fabricating weapons. When facing the wolves, you will no longer need to exhaust so much energy. You only need to absorb them into your banner.”
Lin Feng nodded, but he felt a bit strange, why did Li Shang help him to such an extent?
“If it weren’t for you, I wouldn’t have managed to create this banner, thank you very much. If you need anything, just ask, and I will gladly return your kindness.”
Li Shang looked particularly excited and said: “Alright, can you give me the method you used to give your soul such magic powers, then I will also take your ring with the Na stone, I want everything that is inside. I want all those things in exchange for the banner. It’s because I helped you create the banner.”
