The sword, the ancestor of all weapons.
With the sword as the foundation, one could find the foundation of the Great Dao. Therefore, in the eyes of true experts, the sword was very different from other weapons and treasures.
Treasured swords, immortal swords, and divine swords were also treasures that the experts of different levels of the world pursued.
Shen Zhenyi also once had his own sword.
But now, he had already put down his sword. For the time being, he did not need it, nor was he able to find that sword.
In the lower levels of the world, martial artists focused on the way of the sword. It was very unlikely for them to divert their attention and study the way of the sword. But as their level increased, they would realize how important a sword that was connected to their soul was.
Therefore, most swordsmen were also sword refiners.
Of course, Shen Zhenyi knew how to refine a sword.
It was a piece of cake for him to refine this kind of treasured sword that was refined with ordinary fire.
"You practice the fire-type Vital Energy of the Blazing Sun Prefecture as your foundation. Although it has been completely converted into sword energy under the effects of the medicine, the blazing Yang energy is still there.
"… And this Cold Dew Strange Stone is extremely Yin and cold. It can be refined into a cold Yin sword. It happens to complement your sword technique with Yin and Yang, forming a Tai Chi."
When Shen Zhenyi obtained the Cold Dew Strange Stone, he had already thought of what kind of sword to refine for Cynanchum Chinense.
Cynanchum Chinense was stunned. She asked, "Shouldn't I use a pure Yang sword to fully unleash my sword intent and Vital Energy?"
That sounded more reasonable, right?
Shen Zhenyi nodded slightly. "If you want to unleash your full strength, then of course a Yang-type sword is more suitable. But if you want to comprehend the way of the sword, then it's different."
As the disciple of the Third Young Master Shen, she did not need to exceed her usual standards. She only needed to continuously improve and suppress others in terms of level.
Okay … this sounded reasonable. Cynanchum Chinense felt that her master was only trying to save energy. Since he had obtained the Cold Dew Strange Stone, he might as well just refine a sword for her.
However, no matter what, Cynanchum Chinense was overjoyed to have her master personally forge a sword for her.
"However, in order to forge the sword, we will need some other materials besides the Cold Dew Wonder Stone." Shen Zhenyi thought for a moment and then asked Cynanchum Chinense to call Defu over.
In the past three years, Defu had made a lot of money from the transactions with the Abandoned Sword Villa's Spiritual Blood Stone. Relying on Shen Zhenyi's ability, he could buy low and sell high, and he could make ten times the profit. Hence, the two parties had formed a strong alliance. If Shen Zhenyi wanted to buy something, he was too lazy to look for anyone else. He would look for De Fu directly.
"Iron Star Sand, Fragmented Jade, and Tempered Steel. These are all easy to find, but … in order to harmonize yin and yang and refine sword qi, I'll need the blood of the Dragonhawk. De Fu looked through the list and agreed to the rest, but there was one material that made him frown.
The Dragonhawk was a ferocious monster beast that lived in groups and was produced in the Feilan Province. However, the Dragonhawk was very cunning and difficult to kill. Secondly, its blood was hard to preserve. Most of the Dragonhawk materials on the market were its feathers, claws, and the like. Fresh Dragonhawk blood was rare.
Shen Zhenyi nodded. The Dragonhawk blood was used for sharpening. If he used the blood of a higher level monster beast, the effect would be similar. However, Dragonhawks were produced locally, so he chose this material. He didn't expect that the World of Eight Cultivators was so weak that even the blood of such a monster beast couldn't be obtained easily.
"Since that's the case, I'll make a trip and get some for myself."
He thought for a moment and casually made a decision.
De Fu was shocked and hurriedly advised, "The Third Prince, you can't go!"
Cynanchum Chinense was startled and asked, "Fatty An, why can't my master go?"
De Fu realized that he had said something wrong. He quickly patted his cheek and said with a smile, "The Third Prince's martial arts are unparalleled in the world. Of course, he can go. However, the Dragonhawk is very ferocious and difficult to catch. I'm afraid that he will suffer a lot. Secondly … "
He paused and lowered his voice. "The Dragonhawk is produced in the northwest of the Feilan Province. It's now a desert and is the territory of Soaring Sky City … They are fierce and barbaric. Although The Third Prince doesn't need to be afraid of them, why should he cause trouble?"
Although he said so, De Fu felt that Shen Zhenyi couldn't afford to provoke Soaring Sky City.
Although Shen Zhenyi was extremely talented, he had only been in the World of Eight Cultivators for three years. No matter how powerful he was, he still needed time to improve his cultivation.
Soaring Sky City was basically a gathering of bandits. The city's Chief Dharma Master had cultivated for many years and comprehended the supreme technique 《Tactics of Heavenly Generals》. He was proficient in the art of formations and had obtained the transformation of "killing intent". He was an expert in the fourth layer of the Perfected Person Realm. Coupled with his strong subordinates, he killed people like flies. How could the Abandoned Sword Villa not be afraid?
"Soaring Sky City?"
Shen Zhenyi thought for a moment and nodded. "I've heard that Soaring Sky City plundered places and committed many unjust deeds. Since that's the case, I'll just get rid of them …"
You make it sound so simple!
De Fu was anxious and tried to persuade him, "The Third Prince, you're a noble. Why should you lower yourself to the level of these bandits? They are fugitives. Even if you kill them, they won't be able to escape. As long as a few of them escape, they will become a threat to the Abandoned Sword Villa. Please don't be impulsive! "
It doesn't matter if you lose your life in vain. How can we continue to do business worth millions? Now, De Fu valued Shen Zhenyi's life more than his eyes. This young master was his money tree. How could he let anything happen to him?
Shen Shou had also heard of the power of Soaring Sky City. He stepped forward and advised, "Third Brother, we don't interfere with Soaring Sky City's affairs. I've heard that their City Lord is also a hero. It's only because his subordinates are both good and bad that they are called bandits. You … you don't have to provoke them."
No matter how powerful his son was, he was still a young man. Why should he risk his life? Shen Shou was still on tenterhooks.
Shen Zhenyi did not comment. He just said indifferently, "I have my own plans."
He told Cynanchum Chinense to stay in the villa and the rest of the disciples to focus on practicing martial arts. He went out alone and headed northwest to hunt the Dragon Eagle.
He did not take the advice of De Fu and the others to heart.
If it was on the way, it was fine to destroy Soaring Sky City. If it was not on the way, then they were lucky.
