An Unexpected Encounter

For him specifically, this wasn't a bad thing, in fact it could be considered a good thing, considering he was already planning on using Spirit Stones to heal the version of the broom that An Yang had passed along to him, seeing as his Void Qi caused problems. But for an ordinary cultivator, An Niu's modifications couldn't really be considered a good one. After all, this was a Life Bound Sword, not a cultivation-assisting artifact like a formation or a pill. He would have to use the broom every single day, and quite actively to practice his sword technique, thus the expenditure of Qi couldn't be considered very much as long as he simply used a bit of his excess Qi in the mornings. On the other hand, if he had to use Spirit Stones, wouldn't that be like a subscription fee coming out of nowhere?
