Upon seeing Chen Xuanfeng nod, the "King of the Undead" pointed to the other three beads and said, "As for the remaining three beads, they are weapons prepared for the both of you. Although your martial prowess is such that you can easily wield any weapon, my lord, you will likely come into conflict with the Sword Saints during your trip to the human world. Especially since your power diminishes significantly when you transform into human form, you will need the most suitable weapons to unleash your full strength. That is why I have brought out these three 'magic beads,' which I crafted with immense effort."

"Oh? What is so special about these three magic beads?"

"The so-called 'magic beads' are treasures created based on the remnants and principles of the 'Demon King's Sword of Soul Devouring Immortality,' left behind by the 'Great Demon King.' Master Ba’s idea of extracting the souls of countless beings and refining them into a magical core was truly genius. You may not understand the implications, but to a mage, especially an alchemist, this method of achieving a qualitative breakthrough through quantity is of paramount importance, certainly no less significant than the 'Saint Crest.' Unfortunately, due to the overwhelming difference in power between this master and the 'Great Demon King,' I could not replicate the core of this technique. Thus, I had to use the 'Eye Stone' fragments of the 'Soul Devouring Sword' as the core, supplemented with forbidden spell crystals and infused with hundreds of thousands of souls for refinement, eventually forming these few sentient 'magic beads.' My original hope was to use a sufficient number of magic beads to construct a new body, potentially elevating my magic power to a level close to the 'Great Demon King.' However, it seems the quantity was insufficient, and there is an absolute difference between the attributes of the undead and the infernal demons, plus the performance of the magic beads fell short of my expectations, making this plan impossible. However, I did gain an unexpected benefit: these 'magic beads' can, under the drive of strong intent, absorb powerful forces and excellent materials to automatically generate the most suitable powerful magic weapons."

"The most suitable... magic weapons? What do they absorb, and how are they generated?" Chen Xuanfeng picked up a magic bead and asked with curiosity.

"Abundant power, excellent materials, and strong intent. The 'magic beads' can combine these three to spontaneously generate excellent epic magic weapons. Generally, these three can be found together, for example... an enraged war behemoth. When you kill it, its rage, core, and body can forge a powerful weapon. However, I do not recommend this method because the strength and level of these three will affect the grade of the future weapon. Even using a super magical beast as material, there will inevitably be deviations in spirituality and applicability. Therefore, my suggestion is — the 'Holy Domain.'"

"Wait, skeleton head, it seems you've got it backwards. I asked you to create weapons to deal with the Holy Domain, but now you're telling me to kill those from the Holy Domain to forge weapons. If I can already take down the Holy Domain, why would I need your 'magic beads?'" Seeing the "King of the Undead" getting more and more excited, Chen Xuanfeng interrupted.

"Cackle, there's no need to pretend. After observing your 'Nine-Headed Dragon Battle Aura,' this master understood that even in human form, as long as you are not besieged by two or more Saint Crest Knights, you are not in danger. You desire an epic divine weapon merely as a precaution for situations where you might have to go all out in the human world. Given your cunning nature, wouldn't it be easy for you to covertly deal with a Saint Crest Knight before humans become wary? Moreover, you recently severely injured two young Holy Domain individuals; wouldn't it be fitting to start with them?"

"Haha, I didn't expect you, a lich, to understand warrior capabilities so well. However, even so, the risk is too high. Today’s young Holy Domain warriors rely on their Saint Crests for power. Can they really be better than super magical beasts?" Chen Xuanfeng, having his hidden strength exposed, did not get angry but simply smiled and continued to ask.

"There's no problem with that. Although their power originates from the Saint Crest, once they reach that realm, they possess the immensely refined and vast power refined by the Sea of Star Souls. Relatively speaking, the Saint Crest is merely a key and does not bear any power itself; otherwise, your wife would have already used Leimen's Saint Crest to defeat Samantha. Therefore, the magic weapons that can be forged from the Holy Domain will be the most perfect. Even if they may not match your 'Tiger Essence' in absolute power, they will certainly not fall below 'Divine Punishment' or 'Holy Covenant.' What do you think? Are you not tempted?"

"You've hit the mark, skeleton head. Indeed, although there are allegedly 360 epic-level divine weapons in the world, after tens of thousands of years, less than a hundred can still be confirmed to exist. I have no choice but to take a risk. However, I only need two magic weapons, one in each hand, so you might as well keep one bead."

"Cackle, don't flatter yourself, my lord. That bead is for Miss Jin Luosha. Isn't one of your goals in the human world to obtain the Holy Lance Quenelion? Can you really guarantee that the foolish spear will recognize Miss Jin Luosha as its master? This third magic bead is for unexpected situations. If it successfully recognizes her as its master, then all is well. If not, Miss Jin Luosha, you can simply use the 'magic bead' to disassemble it and transform it into another weapon. The magic weapon born from the bead will inherently recognize its activator as its master, allowing you to smoothly turn it into a 'hosted divine weapon.'" The lich, repeatedly called 'skeleton head' by Chen Xuanfeng, clearly harbored some resentment, and after skipping over the insulted wolf lord, he presented a 'magic bead' to the beautiful girl in white. With a cackle, he performed a noble gesture with the utmost refinement before asking, "Miss, would you do me the honor of accepting this gift?"

Jin Luosha, already accustomed to the dynamic of these two strong individuals acting like children, did not decline. She gently lifted her skirt in a return gesture, accepted the 'magic bead,' and said with a smile, "I am deeply honored. Mr. Anthony Pinodalaramisg, your noble etiquette from the Ancient Guinro Empire is truly elegant."
