Murim Recurve

Re'Kha wore the ring on the ring finger of her left, feeling a sense of warmth through the connection she shared with it. All she needed to activate it was a thought.

'I'll loot everything later. Let me check them first and plan accordingly.' She thought, touching each Magic Artifact with her hand, sensing the element in it. Each Magic Artifact conformed to one of the four elements her race wielded.

Of them, she focused on the Magic Artifacts of the water element, after all, she could only wield them. If she tried to hold Magic Artifacts from other elements, she would feel a faint sense of rejection stemming from within her. But, if by mistake she activated them, then the Water Qi in her body would erupt, internally damaging her. In worse cases, it might even damage her Pranic Heart.

A Pranic Heart was an organ situated right next to the heart. Its sole function was to pump the Qi through her Qi channels, or simply known as meridians. The meridians were similar to her nerves in that they connected to numerous places under the skin. It was through them could she emit her Water Qi to attack.

Re'Kha had no plans on the other Magic Artifacts, so she only focused on the Water element-based Magic Artifacts. The first was a needle, its length spanning her palm. Its tip was deadly sharp, and judging by its design, she realised it was used in treatment. As to the specifics, she was unsure, and could only guess.

Followed by it was a whip blade, its length twice her height. It was in perfect condition; the owners had maintained it with care. Though, considering that it was a Magic Artifact, such care was only normal.

The third, and the last Magic Artifact of the Water element shocked her as Re'Kha deactivated her Wind Qi perception and activated her Water Qi perception, gazing at its shape. She felt a sense of closeness to the Magic Artifact, like it was part of her kin.

'Isn't this the Magic Artifact, Harpen Waves? It was lost 50 years ago during a fight against a powerful Sha. To think it would be here.' Re'Kha grabbed hold of it, feeling a mild hum followed by the gentle sound of sea waves. It was the Magic Artifact expressing its joy at her touch.

Magic Artifacts weren't sentient instruments. The affinity she felt was from the Water Qi in it that had been created using her Clan's cultivation technique. As a product of her Clan, created for the use of her Clansmen, it was geared to be in tune with them.

'Mist Banyan has no observable difference to my Clan's cultivation technique in its base state. To think master derived it based on my Clan's cultivation technique while trapped in his cave for twenty years, as if he was waiting for me all along. This is frightening.' Re'Kha weighed the Magic Artifact, Harpen Waves, feeling that it was perfect for her use.

Harpen Waves was two sabres joined by a chain. Both the sabres were identical, their one edge dull and flat, while the other was aerodynamically curved. The width at the widest portion was only as wide as the length of her thumb. Its length spanned the height of her palm.

The chain was only as wide as her little finger, but looked sturdy. The interlocking between each part made the chain flexible and allowed it to bend like a rope. Harpen Waves was the perfect weapon she could ask for. It was a prized Magic Artifact in their Clan and had been awarded to the most promising candidate—the Clan's successor.

Re'Kha wielded the Magic Artifact for a bit before heaving a satisfied laugh. She activated her ring, intending to keep all the Magic Artifacts except for Harpen Waves within it. The ring was made from Wood Qi essence, so it had more than enough energy to activate with just a thought.

Even if it was close to running out, all she needed was to place it in a field rich with Wood Qi and it would slowly replenish itself. That was the prime advantage with Magic Artifacts, the sole difference from an Elemental Qi Essence that was unable to recover the Elemental Qi in it.

'I only have a single unit of Qi left in me now. It would be wise to not waste it.' Re'Kha thought, watching a circular film appear above the ring. With a thought, she was able to increase or decrease its size.

Using her right hand, Re'Kha grabbed hold off and dropped all the Magic Artifacts into it, finally also placing the bag her master had given her into it. Once it was done, she closed it and heaved a sigh of relief, 'Now I don't have to fear losing it.'

Re'Kha looked over at the Art of the Elements bundled up into numerous rolls. They were scrolls containing the formation to set up an advantageous environment using the Elemental Qi Essences. That way, one would be able to create a home ground advantage anywhere he/she battled.

Even her Burkurel Re Clan only had one such scroll. It was a product of decades worth of research and experimentation. Now, numerous such scrolls lay before her. Without a change in her expression, Re'Kha stored them in her storage ring.

Each scroll only spanned the breadth of her hand, while its length usually stayed within an arm's limit. As they were rolled up, they didn't occupy much space, allowing Re'Kha to store them without issues.

She finally groaned, arriving before the rack filled with pills and tonic. Re'Kha read their names aloud, "Swift Qi Recovery, Universal Herbal Antidote, Heightened Mind…Vitality Resurgence…this is it."

She took the Vitality Resurgence, downing the tonic in small gulps. She sat on the bed, allowing the tonic to work its charm. As her body digested it, Re'Kha felt an itch all over her body. A formless energy of sorts converged in her muscles, slowly healing the damage.

It accelerated her natural healing process, the surface wounds getting disinfected before forming scabs. As for the internal injuries, it would take a long time before she could recover from them. Still, Re'Kha felt some strength return to her.
