"…"
In the face of such a serious reason, Russell found himself speechless.
The illusory figure had dissipated again, turning into a pitch-black bird. It spread its wings and nimbly passed through layers of blockades and defenses. It flew across a long distance and returned to the sky of the ivory tower.
After finding the right position, it fell down.
It penetrated through layers of walls.
It descended from the sky and came to the tightly sealed alchemy workshop.
Then, it saw the riot of darkness.
Despair was shrinking. Under the transformation of the alchemy fire and the hand of imprisonment, it gradually changed qualitatively and took shape again …
In Huai Shi's hand, between his five fingers that had turned into steel, the originally heavy iron ingot had condensed into an illusory outline, which he held tightly.
In the forger's furnace, the source substance and the iron began to transform again.
Gradually, it became clearer and clearer.
The outline of a sharp blade appeared.
At that moment, the countless Despair that was madly multiplying and spreading in the air suddenly shook. Then, it was pulled by an invisible force, collapsing and contracting inwardly …
The sharp sound of steel growing burst forth.
In Huai Shi's hand, the metal crystal was multiplying, moving forward and extending rapidly. Despair was given a body, hatred was given a blade, and curses were given a form.
The darkness disappeared without a trace in the blink of an eye.
And with the burning of the alchemy fire, in Huai Shi's hand, a pitch-black sharp blade finally appeared with its own ferocious outline.
The wail of the secret instrument cracking spread.
The sharp aura came from it, and in the blink of an eye, it brought a chilling sense of oppression.
It was as if there were tangible slashes bursting out from the ground and walls.
"Oh oh oh oh!!!"
Usually, Du did not care about the sharp aura leaking from the secret instrument. He widened his eyes and stepped forward, almost lying in front of the boundary, staring at the weapon in Huai Shi's hand.
"How fierce, how wonderful! A sharp blade that can compete with the Muramasa … Is this the technology left behind by the forgers? "
The old man's eyes burned with fanatical flames, staring at the sharp blade in Huai Shi's hand that was gradually dimming. He was so excited that he almost danced with joy.
In the flowing darkness, a cold and slender blade appeared from Huai Shi's hand and extended forward … After crossing an exaggerated scale, it outlined a sharp outline.
That was … a tachi!
But even if it was a Tachi, this length was too exaggerated.
With just a glance, Ye Zichen was able to get the exact data.
"Seven feet nine inches six fen!"
The old alchemist's eyes swept across the blade, staring at every detail on it. "Is this the shape of the Imperial God Sword? It's truly an eye-opener! "
However, before he could finish his sentence, a cracking sound was heard from Huai Shi's hand.
Everyone froze in place.
In Huai Shi's hand, the Odachi, which was astonishingly long, had actually shattered!
It broke from the middle, and then shattered into thousands of pieces, flying in all directions, quickly blurring and dimming.
In the end, it disappeared without a trace.
Ping Du stood rooted to the ground, as if he had been petrified. He found it hard to accept such an outcome. "Failed … Failed?"
"No, it's the opposite …"
In the corner, Fei Niao's silhouette smiled. "It's a success!"
At that moment, Huai Shi finally raised his hand. The banner unfolded, and the Bone Burying Sanctuary opened with a bang. The billowing darkness accompanied by the overwhelming tide of steel crows roared out.
But this time, the Crow Tide that blotted out the sky and covered the earth no longer reflected the metallic light. Instead, it had returned to the chaotic darkness of the past … However, this darkness was far too ferocious!
The once desperate frenzy emerged again.
The steel crows spread their wings, and their bodies were wrapped in a substantial darkness. Their scarlet eyes were full of ferocity. When they hissed, the sharp sound tore through the fragile protection and spread in all directions.
Greedy predation.
In the blink of an eye, within hundreds of meters of the entire laboratory, all the abyssal sediment, all the unknown things, and all the creeping erosive species lurking in the shadows were completely devoured by the Crows!
And when Huai Shi raised his hand, the mighty tide of crows gathered. After the shackles of the form were undone, countless heavy steel feathers fell and returned to Huai Shi's hand again.
The texture of the feathers overlapped, forming a complicated and solemn blade pattern.
The blade that grew and extended like a machine formed a slender arc. The ferocious blade appeared again. The curse turned into a fierce blood color flowing on the blade from top to bottom, dripping and spreading, and finally dissipating in the air.
Scarlet marks were left behind.
"It's a success!"
Huai Shi waved the ferocious iron in his hand and smiled happily.
But when he looked back, he saw that his students were retreating in horror. Only the old Ping Shi raised his head and stood in place excitedly, staring at the … evil spirit in his eyes.
That's right, it was the ferocious ghost walking in the human world!
It was unaware of how terrible it was at the moment, and even smiled.
It walked forward in the bloody shroud, holding a sharp blade that slaughtered lives. It was just like the legendary king of the great rivers and mountains strolling on the road of the capital of Peace, killing and destroying everything.
Stepping on the corpses, it brought despair.
That would be … too wonderful!
"Name …"
His lips trembled with excitement, and he couldn't wait to step forward, wanting to know, "Does it have a name? Mr. Huai Shi! "
Huai Shi froze for a moment and looked down at the weapon in his hand.
"Name?"
On the blade, there were vague and ancient characters appearing. It was the blessing left by the former forgers. In the world, only Huai Shi could understand the language.
If it was described in the language of the present, there were only four words.
— Birth, old age, illness, death.
This was the essence born from endless despair.
"Resentment."
Next to him, a familiar voice sounded, "Let's call it 'Resentment'."
Dead silence came in an instant. A strange figure appeared beside Huai Shi, took the Odachi from his hand, waved it twice, and nodded happily.
"For a novice, this is a rare and excellent result. Well done, Huai Shi."
Yuan Yuan's eyes widened, stunned and in disbelief.
Who was that woman!
Why did she seem to be very familiar with her teacher! They even put their arms around each other's shoulders! And she wanted to be close to Huai Shi …
She subconsciously reached out to touch her waist, but found that she didn't bring Yamagata with her when she went out.
Even Huai Shi was stunned, looking at Tongi in front of him.
He didn't know why she suddenly appeared in front of others.
But when she looked over with a smile, he felt helpless. Well, she probably came out to play when she was in the mood.
Then, Tongi raised her hand and snapped her fingers.
Time seemed to freeze in an instant.
She pressed the pause button.
She turned around and looked at Huai Shi mischievously, "What's wrong? You look like you saw a ghost? "
"No, I'm just not used to you appearing outside." Huai Shi shook his head and looked around, "Is it okay?"
"What if it is?"
Tongi leaned closer and looked into his eyes, "It may be very troublesome if the news is leaked … Will you help me kill her?"
"… You're daydreaming."
Huai Shi rolled his eyes, "You're hopeless. Just wait for death. Goodbye."
"Alright, let's stop joking around. As your contractor, this is the first time you've created such an excellent product, so I have to share it with you."
Tohime lowered her head as she fiddled with the odachi, Grudge, which was a head taller than her. She commented excitedly, "I can give you full marks for the usage of the Alchemy Fire and the Confinement Hand, but the Forger's Furnace isn't something that's easy to use. If there's a slight mistake, it can be considered inexperience, but it can be made up for.
The final result, without a doubt, is a top grade! “
She looked up and looked at the man in front of her with a gratified smile, "Congratulations, Huai Shi, you are already an excellent alchemist."
"It's still far from that."
Huai Shi shook his head, "You said it yourself, it's resentment, right? It's not despair. "
Although the result was still excellent, it was still a little short of perfection.
It couldn't be restrained from radiating resentment into restrained despair.
It was a loss of purity.
"This point can be made up for in the future. The forger's skill is better than the alchemist's in that it can continuously improve on the work. It's not like the alchemist's, where the final result is determined the moment it comes out of the furnace."
Tongi sighed, "Also, don't make a mistake about who you're comparing to, Huai Shi. Whether it's the Ivory Tower, the Iron Crystal Throne, or the Stoneforge Society, the alchemists you've seen are all geniuses among geniuses. They are one in a million, and there are even alchemists who are unattainable.
It's not wrong to have high standards, but if your eyes are always looking up, living will be very tiring.
You didn't go through a lot of practice and tempering since you were young, and you don't have the enormous amount of effort they poured into pursuing miracles. To be able to stand side by side with them with your mediocre talent in alchemy is already enough to show how precious your results are. "
As she spoke, the odachi in Tongi's hand once again scattered into countless feathers and disappeared into the air.
Huai Shi felt another fierce Origin Substance Equipment appear in his soul.
Huai Shi was stunned, and he couldn't help but frown.
"How is it? You should have noticed it by now, right?" Tongi asked.
Huai Shi nodded.
It wasn't just the odachi. Almost all of the weapons, including the Rage Axe, still had the energy to go one step further. What shocked him was that he had originally thought that the Virtuous Sword would have the highest degree of completion among all of the Origin Substance Equipment.
But now it seemed that it was the Rope of Sorrow?
Not only that, but in terms of degree of completeness, the Rope of Sorrow was just a step away from completely becoming a physical relic. Even after Huai Shi died, it would still be able to continue existing.
It was hard to understand.
But it was indeed different from the other weapons.
Huai Shi finally remembered the spoils of war he had obtained in Yamatai City. When he had accepted Kitten's request to kill the other princes, it had been given to him as an advance payment.
It was a chain that had fused with the Rope of Sorrow!
