It wasn't that Jingke didn't have a scabbard, but that Wang Ling had crushed it when he was a child. There was a mysterious substance in Jingke's blade that Wang Ling still hadn't been able to see through to this day, and it had an important effect on restricting Wang Ling.
But this substance was different from the special substance in the Dao talisman seal that Wang Ming had given him; it wasn't the kind of thing that would make Wang Ling feel powerless upon contact. This peach wood sword was just a street item that Father Wang had picked up from a flower and bird market, and Wang Ling still hadn't clearly investigated its origin.
Back then, Jingke had actually been born as a sword spirit six years ago, when the Gate Between Worlds had first descended.
There had been a time when Wang Ling had even wondered if Jingke had something to do with the Gate Between Worlds.
But later he realized that it had just been a coincidence.
Because Jingke's sword qi was too righteous and didn't have the slightest bit of evil in it; it could be hung over a bedside table to ward off evil, and it could be lifted to slay demons and behead devils … Wang Ling suspected that Jingke had been born after absorbing the essence of socialist core values.
Thinking about it carefully, Wang Ling felt that this was the first time he had noticed the scabbard.
Because Wang Ling had crushed Jingke's scabbard when he was very young, he hadn't paid any attention to it at all. Even when he usually helped Jingke clean the blade, he hadn't noticed it.
So when he heard Fatty Luo's words, Wang Ling stared at Jingke on the sword hilt and pondered deeply.
As Fatty Luo said, it went without saying that a scabbard was a great help to a sword. Not every sword could automatically generate protective sword qi like Jingke could. In the absence of a scabbard, more spirit swords would be corroded.
Although Jingke had protective sword qi, that didn't mean that the scabbard wasn't important. The sword itself accounted for seventy percent of a spirit sword's overall power, while the scabbard accounted for thirty percent. When the two were combined, a spirit sword's power could be maximized.
"Lord Jingke's body is already very powerful. If you can find a suitable scabbard for him, he'll become a truly peerless godly sword with extraordinary power." Fatty Luo looked at Jingke and sighed regretfully.
Waving his palm-leaf fan, he looked at Wang Ling and wanted to say something, but in the end he opened his mouth and didn't say anything.
Fatty Luo looked at the time and realized that it was still quite early. Wang Ling had come over right after school with Sheep, and including the time spent on the road, it had taken him less than an hour to finish the care.
After a round of maintenance, Sheep was clearly in much better spirits than before, and she blinked curiously as she sized up Fatty Luo's shop.
Apart from the magic treasures already in the cabinets on the left and right, there were also some magic treasures from Fatty Luo's collection. Fatty Luo openly hung these magic treasures on the wall for display, and each magic treasure had its own spirit power protective cover.
"To be honest, Ling Zhenren, these magic treasures are my proudest collection." Fatty Luo chuckled. "I've looked for an expert from a proper department to appraise every single one of them, and they're 100% authentic. Furthermore, they've all been preserved, so if any of them are damaged, we'll get 95% of the compensation. "
Sheep's gaze swept around before landing on an item that resembled an armor made of beast hide.
It was a flesh-colored beast skin armor that was covered in fur. There was also a helmet on the armor, and there were two huge fangs on the left and right sides of the helmet.
"What's this?" Sheep asked as she stretched out her little finger.
"Have you heard of the heavenly demon pig?" Fatty Luo asked.
The sheep blinked and shook her head.
It was actually a heavenly demon pig?
Wang Ling's eyes lit up, because he had read about it in historical records.
The Sky Demon Pig was the first Daemon King to come out of the Gate Between Worlds when it first appeared. At that time, the Sky Demon Pig's arrival had caused an apocalyptic flood. And the most troublesome thing was the heavenly demon pig's Super Body. In its Super Body state, this demon pig's defense was at its peak, and it was as tough as a demon god's.
In that battle, if General Yi hadn't seized the opportunity when the heavenly demon pig's Super Body weakened, he would have been able to kill it in one blow and stop the damage in time. The consequences would have been unthinkable.
"In order to get this pig skin and tusks, I paid a huge price and went through many twists and turns. In the end, I managed to get my hands on this pig skin. I originally wanted to use it to make a full set of robes, but unfortunately, there weren't many raw materials left, so I used it to make a set of animal skin armor. As long as you put it on and activate it with spirit energy, you'll have the Super Body effect for a short period of time. "
"There are a lot of so-called authentic heavenly demon pig skin armor circulating on the market now, but they're all fake. Mine is the only one that's authentic! "
Fatty Luo waved his palm-leaf fan as he looked at the pig skin armor he had made, his heart full of pride. "I was invited to an auction once, and when I realized that someone was actually selling heavenly demon pig skin armor, I was so angry … does he really think his fake pig armor is the best in the world?"
Wang Ling: "…"
…
Everyone had their own pride and things they were proud of.
Take Fatty Luo for example. He wasn't someone who cared about his appearance, because he had once been handsome. Who hadn't had a moment of peerless beauty? But Fatty Luo had realized a hundred years ago that good looks didn't have the slightest f * cking use to him! Becoming an outstanding weaponsmith was the most important thing to him, and the various magic treasures he had collected over the past several hundred years were what he was most proud of!
Apart from this heavenly demon pig skin armor, there were actually quite a few other items in the shop that Fatty Luo treasured.
Wang Ling was surprised to find that most of Fatty Luo's collection was actually defensive equipment.
"In the past several hundred years, I've traveled all over the country and collected the toughest defensive equipment I could find." Fatty Luo grinned. "Of course, my greatest wish is to be able to create a peerless godly sword that can easily destroy all this defensive equipment."
As he said this, Fatty Luo's gaze abruptly pointed behind the door of the shop. Wang Ling and Sheep followed his gaze and immediately saw a shield hanging behind the door.
It was a dark blue shield, and its surface was covered with layers of scales that were arranged in an orderly manner like fish scales. At first glance, this shield didn't look like anything new, but it actually gave off a faint aura of the deep sea, and when you sensed it carefully, you actually felt like you were drowning and suffocating.
What was this?
Wang Ling narrowed his eyes, and somehow felt that this thing wasn't simple.
"This is a shield made from the scales of the western deep sea water spirit Hogg Dun. Its skin is quite thick, and its defense is enhanced in places with water, such as rainy days, lakes, the sea and so on … "
Fatty Luo said, "It's also called Huo Dun for short."
