Watching the enormous bone scythe in Wu Ying's hand, Yang Shan felt quite gratified.
Little Wù had truly made something of himself! And Yang Shan deserved much of the credit for that.

Wu Ying had thus received a degree of favor unavailable to the other venerable elders!
Gu You had bestowed upon Wu Ying a special secret art—"Bone Soul Scythe"! This secret art combined Dou Skills, Soul Skills, and weapon-forging techniques! It was rated at the High Earth Rank.
This secret art required the practitioner to use their own blood essence as a catalyst, gather sufficiently high-quality forging materials and bones, then nurture them with their Soul Strength to eventually form the Bone Soul Scythe! The Bone Soul Scythe was itself a weapon, and because it was nurtured by blood essence and soul, it could develop rudimentary intelligence and become linked to its wielder's will, as easy to wield as an arm!
However, if the Bone Soul Scythe was damaged, the practitioner would also suffer severe backlash.
It was somewhat similar to the so-called "natal magic treasure" in cultivation novels.
