Chapter 212: Chapter 15 Victory! Full of Gains (Seeking Recommendation Tickets)_2

He was the family heir, the Zhou Xuan Sword is rightfully his. Why would he choose another sword-type Spiritual Artifact?

Choosing a defensive Spiritual Artifact was the best strategy.

“As you wish, War Soldier Wang Shouzhe,” the Artifact Spirit responded quickly, “You can choose from energy defensive type, semi-energy semi-physical defensive type, or pure physical defensive type. You can also choose from battle armor type, shield type, or jewelry type.”

Clearly, different identities have different treatments. The treatment given to a War Soldier cannot be compared to that of a Militia.

Wang Shouzhe, after some consideration, chose: “I want the shield type, semi-energy semi-physical defensive type.”

He had always longed for the spiritual artifact, the Turtle Scale Treasure Shield, which Longyan Old Ancestor had once sold.

It is worth mentioning that, he had written a letter asking Zhong Xingwang to buy back the Turtle Scale Treasure Shield at a premium price.

That artifact was given by the Master of Longyan Old Ancestor. Its significance to the Old Ancestor is remarkable.

“As you wish, War Soldier Wang Shouzhe.”

Then, in front of Wang Shouzhe, a spatial fluctuation occurred, and a shield about the size of a basin appeared before him.

The shield is entirely of primitive and heavy bronze color, decorated with many mysterious and hard-to-understand runes. It emits a spirited glow, looking very delicate and solid.

It was quite obviously a top-grade spiritual artifact.

Wang Shouzhe held the shield. Although it appeared heavy, in reality, it was exceptionally lightweight. He could move freely with it on his left arm.

As he injected Mysterious Energy into it, the shield radiated a green glow, thereby condensing into an energy shield. It has a dome-like shape with a diameter of over two meters.

Once erected, it can block all the attacks from the front. Moreover, by rotating his arm, he can adjust his defense direction at any time.

Wang Shouzhe was very satisfied with this and quickly withdrew the umbrella-shaped energy shield.

With his current state of Qi Refinement, handling the spiritual tool was a bit strenuous. In just a short while, he could feel his Mysterious Energy was rapidly depleting.

“Husband, you should give your shield a name,” Liu Ruolan suggested. Her Autumn Water Sword had a name, so it wouldn’t be fair to not give a name to her husband’s Top Grade Spirit Shield.

“Seeing as you look primitive, heavy, yet full of vitality, it’s clear that you are a defensive spirit shield with extraordinary strength,” Wang Shouzhe mused. “Shall I call you ‘Pot Lid’?”

“Pot Lid?” Liu Ruolan broke into cold sweat, her husband’s peculiar humor never changed. “Husband, this shield may develop Spiritual Intelligence in the future, don’t bully it.”

This was after all a top-grade spiritual artifact. It wouldn’t sound nice if it were called ‘Pot Lid’.

“Alright, if my wife isn’t satisfied, I’ll think of another one,” Wang Shouzhe said, “this spirit shield will ultimately be a guardian treasure of our family. Hoping that once it develops Spiritual Intelligence, it will remain true to its original aspiration, let’s call it ‘Guardian Heart Spirit Shield’.”

This name sounds good, Liu Ruolan agreed.

Next, Wang Shouzhe was supposed to start the fourth challenge immediately. However, after briefly using the Guardian Heart Spirit Shield, he had consumed about one-thirtieth of his Mysterious Energy.

Considering his personality, he was not in a hurry to start the fight. After a slight break and meditation, his Mysterious Energy was fully recovered.

Only then did he start the fourth challenge.

After some ceremonial procedures.

A large and sturdy puppet demon appeared in the test field.

As soon as it appeared, the surrounding vines rushed to wrap around it madly.

But how could a puppet demon at the Spirit Platform Realm be so easy to deal with?

It was seen waving its hands; its claws, sharp as blades, kept chopping up and down. The vines being chopped into countless sections as soon as they got close.

It was fulfilling its mission faithfully, trying to defeat Wang Shouzhe.

All it did was to continue to attack Wang Shouzhe, cutting through the vines like a demon mowing machine. Wherever it passed, pieces of vine wreckage flew all over the sky.

The ferocity of the puppet demon at the Spirit Platform Realm was somewhat already expected by Wang Shouzhe.

The vine array that he spent so much time setting up was prepared for this puppet demon.

Wang Shouzhe calmly moved around in the vine, which seemed to be alive. They made way for him wherever he went and closed once he had passed.

The puppet demon was fast, but no matter how fast it was, it had to continue clearing the vines. This slowed it down by more than seventy to eighty percent of its peak speed.

How could it catch up with Wang Shouzhe?

In addition, the puppet demon also attempted to intercept Wang Shouzhe by jumping and skimming at low altitude.

Unfortunately, it underestimated Wang Shouzhe’s vines. The long vines stretched out to five to six zhang and formed obstacles in the air, like the demon’s long hair dancing wildly.

Once the vines entangled the puppet demon, they pulled it down fiercely. The sight was truly horrifying.

Despite the continuous roaring of the puppet demon, it could not do anything about Wang Shouzhe.

Meanwhile, Wang Shouzhe started to replenish the severed vines or stimulate their growth again and played a game of hide-and-seek with the puppet demon in the forest of vines.

Time passed little by little, and the puppet demon became increasingly irritable.

Even though it was mighty, it was not an everlasting machine. Spending most of its power entangling with the vines and chasing Wang Shouzhe was continually draining its energy.

If the situation continued like this, its power would gradually be depleted.

As expected, an hour later, the demon puppet started to slow down, and its explosive power became increasingly inadequate.

And the vines, however, were continually growing and entangling, causing endless obstacles to it. Some rot had gradually appeared on its scales.
