Mecha Arm

Xiao Xiao immediately showed off the spirit ring she had just obtained to Xuanyuan Sheng, who was waiting at the camp.

"Xiao Sheng, how is it? The third spirit ring is black. Isn't your senior sister amazing?"

She looked so smug that her nostrils were practically pointing at the sky.

Ma Xiaotao speechlessly tossed the pig she had been keeping for her toward Xiao Xiao, and the pig flew snout-first toward Xiao Xiao's face.

Startled, she dropped her hands from her waist.

She caught the little pig.

Senior sister?

Xuanyuan Sheng glanced at Xiao Xiao, who had just revealed her true thoughts.

Little brat, trying to climb the ranks after just your third spirit ring? Keep cultivating for another dozen years or so first.

However, the Humanity's Luck on Xiao Xiao, which was vastly different from before, proved that she had successfully advanced.

She used to be a little ant, but now she had transformed into a little loach.

This description was quite an accurate way to illustrate her change.

Her luck should have improved significantly as well; he wondered if he should farm something out of Xiao Xiao through her Humanity's Luck.

This thought rolled through Xuanyuan Sheng's mind like a snowball, growing larger and larger.

He acted as soon as he thought of it.

Xuanyuan Sheng walked straight over to Xiao Xiao and picked up the golden orb beside her.

It was the same as the one he had obtained from her last time.

He merged it directly into his body, but this golden orb was slightly larger, and the changes he gained were much greater.

He felt as though he could summon something onto his hand.

"Xiao Sheng, what are you doing?"

Xiao Xiao was very alert; she felt a thick sense of malice when she saw Xuanyuan Sheng reach out.

It couldn't be that he was going to knock her on the head just because she said she wanted to be his senior sister, right?

That really wasn't something a good boy should do.

"I had a bit of an epiphany, so I'm experimenting." Xuanyuan Sheng's tone was calm, making it impossible to discern his true meaning.

He was simply reaching out to get a feel for it.

However, the expression Xiao Xiao wore—the look of a senior sister who must be tolerant of her junior brother—made Xuanyuan Sheng very annoyed.

"Is that so?" Xiao Xiao was somewhat suspicious that this was just an excuse from Xuanyuan Sheng.

After all, they had spent several days together, and he hadn't chosen to cultivate once. How could he have had an epiphany? He must be playing her for a fool.

"Shall I demonstrate it for you?"

Xuanyuan Sheng looked at the little loli with amusement.

Xiao Xiao spread her arms and nodded.

She knew this routine; usually, when a boy tells a girl he's going to demonstrate something and asks her to close her eyes, he ends up kissing her the next second.

She closed her eyes very consciously.

The next second, Xiao Xiao felt a giant palm stroking her head, and it was even tangling her hair a bit.

She opened her eyes.

She discovered a translucent Mecha Arm hovering over her head.

"What a cool Soul Tool!!"

Xiao Xiao fell in love with this giant arm at first sight; it was practically no different from her idea of proving the Dao through strength.

The commotion between the two of them attracted Zhang Lexuan and Ma Xiaotao, who were packing up.

The first thing Ma Xiaotao did upon arriving was to touch the Mecha Arm equipped on Xuanyuan Sheng's arm.

This thing was unlike any other Soul Tool she had ever seen, and she couldn't feel any spirit power fluctuations from within it.

No matter how one looked at it, it just seemed like a giant hunk of iron.

"Is this a Soul Tool? I've never seen this type before." She remembered that the Soul Tools of the Sun Moon Empire didn't look like this style.

It actually looked quite good equipped on Xuanyuan Sheng's arm.

"Mm, this is a Soul Tool I'm currently crafting, though right now it's only the size of an arm."

Mecha!

Who wouldn't love this stuff? If it weren't for the fact that the power of a mecha wasn't the gathering of great power within oneself, the trend sparked by such things would likely be even more widespread.

Being able to pull the usage rights for a piece of mecha directly from Xiao Xiao was naturally a huge attraction for someone like him, who had a mecha dream.

In this first use, Xuanyuan Sheng understood from the introduction of Humanity's Luck that this thing contained Humanity's Luck, and one had to reach a sufficient amount to use it.

Only someone like Zhang Lexuan would have the qualifications to use it.

This high requirement also meant it possessed a unique convenience: it could be used without Soul Power or energy, and Humanity's Luck would automatically help repair any damage to the Mecha Arm.

It was simply perfect.

"So it was just a semi-finished product that had just started being crafted." Ma Xiaotao nodded in realization.

She was well aware of the stories about Zhang Lexuan purchasing items related to the Soul Tool Department; during that time, many people were speculating whether this senior sister intended to join the Soul Tool Department.

Isn't that how all the big shots are?

After achieving invincibility in one field, they disperse their cultivation and start all over again.

Although there aren't really people who disperse their cultivation to start over in reality, it is not uncommon for someone to suddenly become interested in something and then delve into it.

Ma Xiaotao vaguely remembered that, in the end, because no news about Soul Tools had surfaced for a long time, everyone unanimously concluded that the senior sister had just been on a whim.

She hadn't expected that Lexuan was buying it for Xiao Sheng to tinker with.

However, while this thing was cool, wouldn't its utility be quite limited without Soul Power?

But once she thought of Xuanyuan Sheng, whose Soul Power Level was already on par with her own.

Ma Xiaotao silently went back to packing her things.

Zhang Lexuan was observing them.

Watching Xuanyuan Sheng, whose eyes were reflecting a glow as he touched the Mecha Arm with fondness, she fell into deep thought.

Xiao Xiao grabbed Xuanyuan Sheng's other arm.

"Senior brother, let me play with this, okay!" Only at times like this would Xiao Xiao, who was determined to be seen as an older sister figure, speak like this.

"Here, take it."

The Mecha Arm hit the ground, creating a significant crater.

This thing had been plucked from Xiao Xiao, and he wanted to see if Xiao Xiao playing with this mecha could drop another gold ball, allowing him to collect a complete mecha sooner.

Even if it wasn't used for combat, it would make an excellent display piece.

Xiao Xiao, that little girl with monstrous strength, began to study it while hugging the Mecha Arm, and upon looking at it, she actually discovered something.

She summoned her Gauntlet Martial Soul.

Comparing it to the palm on the mecha, she was shocked to find that they were almost a perfect match; her Gauntlet Martial Soul looked as if it had been detached from this Mecha Arm.

Xiao Xiao said inwardly with an expressionless face.

"Love Mentor, can you explain this to me?"

The Love System naturally knew the whole story and spoke up nervously.

[Explain what?]

"Did you skim off my Martial Soul? Where is the part above the fist?"

Xiao Xiao said righteously; she finally understood why she felt something was off when she used it—it turned out a huge chunk was missing.

Seeing that she was talking about this, the Love System breathed a sigh of relief.

[Have you ever heard of a Martial Soul secondary awakening?]

When this term was thrown out, Xiao Xiao nodded.

How could she not know about this? Wasn't it just the evolution of a Martial Soul due to some reason? Did they really think she only liked reading trashy romance novels?
