CHAPTER 337: CHAPTER 71: TREASURE SCISSORS RECOGNIZE THEIR MASTER

After the scissors were made, Mei Xiang carved the character "Mei" on the Spiritual Rhinoceros Scissors with her heart blood, in memory of her romance with Bai Juyi, hence the name "Spiritual Rhinoceros Scissors."

At the time Mei Xiang left, she left the scissors behind. Unfortunately, Bai Juyi was just an ordinary person. Despite his extraordinary skills, he could only use the Spiritual Rhinoceros Scissors to trim potted plants, making them look much more beautiful than ordinary flowers.

Before this, Xiao Xian did not know the wonders of the Spiritual Rhinoceros Scissors and just casually tried it out by trimming a pot of Begonia, only then discovering that the scissors were sentient and could autonomously trim plants into the most suitable structure for their growth.

Thanks to this unexpected space advancement, Little White Jiao posthumously explained the cultivation model of spiritual artifacts, and only then did Xiao Xian want to properly experiment with the Spiritual Rhinoceros Scissors.

"Little master," Little White Jiao surfaced in the artificial lake, occasionally diving into the water to catch some snails and turtles to satisfy his cravings.

"You haven’t let the Spiritual Rhinoceros recognize its master yet. Generally, immortal artifacts need to recognize their master. Back then, Mei Xiang only used a drop of spirit blood for Bai Juyi to use these scissors. Thus, from its creation until now, these scissors can be considered unowned, and their effectiveness greatly reduced." An ownerless spiritual artifact is like a child without a mother, not only pitiful but also greatly reduced in spiritual power.

"That means I need to make these scissors obediently listen to me," Xiao Xian fiddled with the scissors; undoubtedly, scissors forged from Outer Heaven Meteor Crystal looked unremarkable by day, but at night, looking closely, one would see a gentle and dazzling star-like luster on the blade.

"The effective method using spiritual and immortal artifacts is, one drop of blood lets a spiritual artifact understand humanity, two drops of blood form a bond between the artifact and its owner, and three drops of heart blood allow you to use the Spiritual Rhinoceros Scissors as you wish. Considering the time and rapport you have with the Spiritual Rhinoceros Scissors, you can only absorb one drop of heart blood to make the scissors sentient," Just the requirement of heart blood recognition is demanding enough. Aside from cultivators with some prowess, which ordinary person would dare plunge scissors into their chest? Isn’t that suicidal?

Xiao Xian looked at the cold light shimmering off the Spiritual Rhinoceros Scissors, feeling a chill himself. Could this body really withstand such a stab?

"Here goes nothing," Xiao Xian took hold of the Spiritual Rhinoceros Scissors, precisely aimed for a spot two fingers above his chest, and tentatively stabbed towards his heart.

As the scissors neared his chest, Xiao Xian’s silver-grade spiritual power initially resisted the Spiritual Rhinoceros Scissors. Xiao Xian took a shallow breath; sensing Xiao Xian’s intent, the scissors pierced through the clothing, slowly penetrating deeper towards the heart.

At that moment, Xiao Xian did not feel pain; as the blade approached, it felt as though he abruptly moved from hot water into cold, a chilling sensation followed by a tingling, flowing from his heart into the Spiritual Rhinoceros Scissors—an offering of a drop of heart blood.

The Spiritual Rhinoceros Scissors now automatically settled in his hand, the blade no longer cold but rather a pleasant temperature similar to his own.

Moreover, the engraved character on the scissors gradually blurred, and the "Mei" character transformed into a figure that emerged from the scissors.
