"Clang, clang!"
The illusory weapons conjured through the Vermilion Ancient Zither collided rapidly with magical artifacts and spirit artifacts, ringing out as though solid weapons were clashing.
This method of attack, unleashed through a spirit artifact, certainly had its unique advantages.

Compared with direct attacks using magical artifacts or spirit artifacts, it consumed less magic power and offered more variations, making it harder to counter.
Of course, Ren Hongyan's own strength was indispensable to the effectiveness of these sound-based attacks. Someone else wielding the Vermilion Ancient Zither might not have been able to unleash such power.
