When Qin Xuan awoke from the darkness, it was already the morning of the second day.
He glanced at the Myriad Transformations Divine Artifact, which had reverted to its small sword form, and felt a peculiar connection had formed between it and himself.
It felt as if it were an extension of his own body.
Whatever he wanted it to do, it could do.
"Then..."
"Let's try making it bigger!"
Qin Xuan excitedly issued his first command to the Myriad Transformations Divine Artifact. Upon receiving the order, it immediately flew up from his chest.
After a couple of flips in mid-air, it suddenly expanded, once again becoming the three-foot-three-inch long sword from yesterday.
"Cool!"
Grasping the hilt, Qin Xuan couldn't help but swing it a couple of times in the room.
Instantly, sword light flashed.
Two sword energies, like sharp blades, sliced through the table and wardrobe in the room, cutting them in half.
Table: Who would have thought that I, a computer desk, would be killed by a sword?
Solid Wood Wardrobe: Damn it, I thank all eight generations of your ancestors!
"This is too outrageous!"
Feeling that more than half of his vital energy had vanished, Qin Xuan couldn't help but smack his lips.
He was, after all, a Grandmaster. His vital energy wasn't abundant, but it wasn't scarce either.
Yet, even so, using the Myriad Transformations Divine Artifact was only enough to unleash three strikes.
The consumption was truly terrifying.
Fortunately, this Myriad Transformations Divine Artifact wasn't just for combat.
If it were simply changing its form without attacking, the consumption of vital energy would be negligible.
"Let's try something else!"
"Uh..."
"I should go outside."
Glancing at the wardrobe and wooden table lying on the ground and cursing, Qin Xuan quickly brought the Myriad Transformations Divine Artifact to the garden.
After much thought, he unconsciously recalled the web novels he had read.
"Why not, let's change it into a storage ring first?"
Stopping in the garden, Qin Xuan murmured to the long sword in his hand.
"Protagonists in novels always start with a storage ring."
"Weapons, elixirs, anything can be placed inside, which is very convenient."
"It's a pity that Master left nothing behind except the Myriad Transformations Divine Artifact and the cultivation manual."
"If the Myriad Transformations Divine Artifact can transform, it would at least make up for a small regret of mine."
No sooner said than done.
Qin Xuan directly imagined the appearance and function of a storage ring in his mind.
The long sword in his hand instantly shrank.
Then, with a change, it truly transformed into a dark black, circular ring.
"It really works!"
Qin Xuan rejoiced and immediately picked a fresh flower from the garden.
With a thought, the flower disappeared from his hand and entered the ring.
"I can clearly feel what's inside the ring."
"This should be no different from the storage rings in novels."
"It's just that this is ultimately not a pure storage ring, but the Myriad Transformations Divine Artifact."
"If I change it from a ring to another form, will its storage function still be there?"
Filled with doubt, Qin Xuan waved his hand.
The Myriad Transformations Divine Artifact, which had transformed into a ring, instantly reverted to a three-foot-long sword.
And the flower within showed no abnormalities.
Qin Xuan could still sense it and could still retrieve it from the Myriad Transformations Divine Artifact.
"There's such a good thing?"
Feeling amazed, Qin Xuan immediately tried a few more methods.
He stored and retrieved several flowers multiple times.
Then he changed the form of the Myriad Transformations Divine Artifact and stored and retrieved them again.
The final conclusion was: when the Myriad Transformations Divine Artifact transformed into a storage ring, its function and usage were exactly like a storage ring.
However, if the Myriad Transformations Divine Artifact transformed into other forms, it could no longer store items.
Of course, if items were already stored inside before the Myriad Transformations Divine Artifact transformed, they could still be retrieved.
But apart from the special form of the storage ring, all other forms could only retrieve items, not store them.
"I have to say, this Myriad Transformations Divine Artifact is quite user-friendly."
After several attempts, Qin Xuan found himself liking the one-foot small sword before him more and more.
He even lost any anticipation for the supreme divine artifact that Chen Xuan had promised.
What was the point of a supreme divine artifact if it could only fight?
Could it transform into a storage ring?
Could it store green leaves and red flowers?
My Myriad Transformations Divine Artifact can!
"But speaking of which."
"It's reasonable for me to wear it as a ring on my hand in normal times, but it feels somewhat incongruous for it to turn into a long sword when fighting."
"Since it's a Myriad Transformations Divine Artifact, transforming into other cold weapons is not a problem, but what about firearms?"
A thought struck him, and Qin Xuan immediately thought of the rifle he had used in Myanmar.
As the sword body flipped, a one-to-one scale assault rifle appeared before Qin Xuan.
"Holy crap, this craftsmanship, this texture, it's amazing!"
Holding the gun, Qin Xuan skillfully assumed a aiming and shooting posture, but in the next second, his movements suddenly froze.
"Hiss, I only thought cold weapons were abrupt, but I forgot a very important issue with firearms!"
"That is..."
"Where are the bullets?!"
"If the Myriad Transformations Divine Artifact can transform into firearms, what about the consumable bullets?"
"Can they transform too?"
"If they can transform, then what are the bullets that are fired?"
"If they can't transform, then what's the point of me having the entire gun barrel?"
"As a decoration?"
A series of question marks popped up in Qin Xuan's mind.
He quickly unloaded the magazine of the rifle.
As expected, it was as he thought.
The magazine could be unloaded, but there wasn't a single bullet inside.
"Then how am I supposed to use this gun?"
"I'm not supposed to provide my own bullets, am I?"
Qin Xuan asked the Myriad Transformations Divine Artifact in confusion, but the only response he received was the familiar phrase.
Myriad Transformations Divine Artifact: I am a Myriad Transformations Divine Artifact!
Qin Xuan: "..."
Ever since he gained the ability to hear the inner voices of all things, there were only three things that had ever stumped him.
The first was the stone ring that Chen Xuan's remnant soul had attached itself to.
According to Chen Xuan, that ring was what his remnant soul had automatically attached itself to after his physical body had perished.
What level of item it was, and what secrets it held, Chen Xuan himself did not know.
The second, naturally, was the Myriad Transformations Divine Artifact before Qin Xuan.
It was similar to the stone ring; apart from saying "I am a Myriad Transformations Divine Artifact," it would say nothing else and could not communicate.
As for the third, it was a strange jade tablet that appeared with them.
Not only did the jade tablet itself have no text or markings, but its inner voice was also completely absent.
What made Qin Xuan even stranger was that after Chen Xuan had recovered somewhat, he only mentioned that he had taken out the Myriad Transformations Divine Artifact and the Body Refining Chapter manual to attract cultivators.
He never mentioned the jade tablet at all.
And after seeing the Myriad Transformations Divine Artifact and the Body Refining Chapter, the other party didn't seem to feel anything was missing, as if he didn't even know about the existence of that jade tablet.
"It seems I can go to Boss Xiao's place today and let Master see that jade tablet."
"Perhaps after he sees it, he'll know what kind of thing it is."
"As for this firewood stick..."
"I'll wait until I go to Fu Guoan's place to find some bullets to try it out!"
