Riverside Zuo Residence, basement.
The villa Zuo Yi had lived in for many years had a rather large basement. It was divided into a wine cellar and a secret room.
When he and his mother moved to Riverside Town, the wine cellar had long since been abandoned. There were only empty wine racks inside, and then it had become a storeroom for tools and miscellaneous items.
A few days ago, Zuo Yi had used his free time to make some simple modifications to the wine cellar in the basement. He had also opened up a secret room, and with the help of the Titan Spirit Shaman Slave, he had built a workshop.
He then took out all the tools stored in his spatial ring, turning this place into his own workshop.
Sitting in front of the workbench, Zuo Yi pulled out the Mountain Sea Sword.
Whether it was in terms of shape or size, this longsword was extremely standard. It looked very much like something made in a high-class factory.
But if one looked carefully, the blade, guard, hilt, and head all had quite a few unique details, giving it a temperament different from that of standard equipment.
This was especially true of the sword inscriptions that faintly appeared on the blade. They were complex and beautiful, and under the illumination of the table lamp, they reflected a cold and sharp light. If one looked at them for a moment longer, they would feel like their eyes were being pierced.
And Zuo Yi's observation of the Mountain Sea Sword was even more profound. He could taste the ingenuity that the swordsmith had put into forging it.
In Zuo Yi's view, Tang Yuan was not a master swordsmith with an undeserved reputation. He had some real ability.
But that was all.
In the world of Sadeya, the skills of a master swordsmith could be traced back to several epochs. The wisdom of countless people over tens of thousands of years, coupled with the tens of thousands of materials from different planes, was enough to crush the Mountain Sea Sword into smithereens, even if it was only a third-rate product.
Thus, Zuo Yi immediately erased the mark of a master on the sword. He stimulated his flame Qi and Psychic Shock to refine the Mountain Sea Sword.
The flames of Qi removed the excess impurities contained within the sword, and the Psychic Shock allowed the metal elements to be distributed more evenly. The quality of the sword suddenly rose by a large margin!
After completing it, the new Mountain Sea Sword could be said to have been reborn, and Zuo Yi had only used less than a minute to complete it.
Next, he took out a small piece of Dark Red Gold and an even smaller piece of Star Fantasy Silver. The latter was only one-fifth the size of the former.
Zuo Yi placed the Scarlet Black Gold and the Phantom Star Silver into the crucible.
Dark Crimson Gold had extremely high corrosion resistance and affinity with supernatural powers. It was an important auxiliary material used to create supernatural weapons. Phantasmal Silver, on the other hand, could increase the lethality of weapons. It was even rarer and more precious than Dark Crimson Gold.
Zuo Yi had branded his true name into the Web of Law of the Blue Star World. As a result, he had lost the coordinates of Sadeya, and it was very likely that he would never be able to return to that world. Therefore, the materials stored in the Space Ring were decreasing with each use.
Therefore, he was very "stingy" with the materials used for the modification. It was enough to satisfy the most basic requirements.
Zuo Yi ignited the flames of his combat aura again and used the crucible to smelt the Dark Red Gold and the Phantom Star Silver. The two completely different materials were perfectly fused together, and then he poured them on the longsword.
Under the effect of mental shock, the mixture of gold and silver seemed to have a life of its own. It quickly and evenly covered the entire longsword, including the guard and the hilt!
Although the Dark Red Gold was five times the size of the Phantom Star Silver, the texture and color of the coating of the longsword were completely leaning towards the latter. The silver light was as clear as the stars, and it had a dreamlike beauty.
This was another major characteristic of the Phantom Star Silver — it was gorgeous!
This kind of beauty was not just for show. When the wielder of the longsword attacked, the dazzling sword light could play the role of interfering with the opponent's vision. The effect was most obvious in a strong light environment.
At this point, the new sword was not yet complete. Zuo Yi used a rune carving knife to carve two runes on each side of the sword.
Sharpness and Armor Piercing!
He had once used the "Sharpness" rune on the Inch Golden Sword, giving the Inch Golden Sword a valiant property that could cut through iron like mud. In the end, it was sold for a high price of four million gold coins.
The addition of the "Armor Piercing" rune would make the longsword even more powerful.
As the name implied, the "Armor Piercing" rune could pierce through armor. After the "Armor Piercing" rune was added, the longsword's ability to pierce through heavy armor would greatly increase.
With the addition of the two runes and the special characteristics of the Phantom Star Silver, the longsword's lethality was at least several times greater than the Inch Golden Sword's!
After carving the runes, Zuo Yi used his combat aura to temper the Mountain Sea Sword once more. The modification of the Mountain Sea Sword was declared complete.
As for the remaining mixture in the crucible, he plated it on the surface of the scabbard.
The extremely thin coating did not have much use, but it was a perfect match for the longsword.
Zuo Yi did not forget to give the longsword a new name.
He carved the two words "Phantom Star" on the guard.
Phantom Star Sword.
Holding the sword in his hand, Zuo Yi carefully inspected it, feeling rather satisfied.
At this moment, he suddenly had a thought. He immediately put the Phantom Star Sword and the scabbard into his spatial ring.
Zuo Yi stood up and quickly left the basement.
A few seconds later, he appeared in the Bao'er's bedroom on the third floor.
The Bao'er had just finished her afternoon nap. The little girl drowsily opened her eyes and saw Zuo Yi sitting on the edge of the bed.
She sweetly called out, "Papa."
She extended her hand and said, "Hug!"
Zuo Yi bent over and hugged her. He smiled and said, "Get up."
The little girl rested her chin on his shoulder and lazily replied with an "en" before closing her eyes again.
Woof!
Woof! Teck was jumping up and down on the edge of the bed, wagging his little tail with all his might. Bao'er, Bao'er, hurry up and play with Woof!
The Bao'er opened her eyes again. She pouted and said, "I know!"
The little girl had a spiritual resonance with Teck, so even if Teck could not speak, he could understand her thoughts.
It was the same the other way around.
In contrast, the smooth talking Pipi could only communicate with the Bao'er through language.
Zuo Yi gently patted her back and said, "Then get up. I'll take you outside to pick wild vegetables, okay?"
"Pick wild vegetables?"
The Bao'er's eyes suddenly lit up. She nodded like a chicken pecking at rice. "Okay, okay!"
Zuo Yi laughed.
The Zuo Family's old house was located at the west end of Linjiang Town. The nearest house in town was several hundred meters away from the villa. The land around the villa all belonged to the Zuo Family or Zuo Yi.
Behind the villa was a small hill covered by dense woods. Although the area was not very large, the environment was very beautiful.
A clear mountain spring gurgled out of the woods into a clear pool at the foot of the hill. It meandered into a narrow stream towards the fields in the distance.
There was a small path between the villa and the pool. Because it had not been cleaned for a long time, most of it was buried in the weeds. On both sides of the path were fields full of wild flowers.
Zuo Yi did not rent out this fertile land to prevent others from disturbing the tranquility of the villa. Further away were the rich farmlands.
Although it was hot in the afternoon, walking on the path in the fields, the trees blocked the scorching sun. The breeze carried the fragrance of the soil and flowers, making people feel relaxed and happy.
The Bao'er had lived in the Zuo Family's old house for some time with Zuo Yi, but this was the first time she had come here. She was very happy and ran forward.
Woof!
Woof! Teck followed her closely and ran happily as well.
The Pipi flapped its wings and flew into the air, humming a little tune.
Zuo Yi was at the back of the group unhurriedly. Looking at the little girl running wild happily, he felt very peaceful.
After running for a long time, the Bao'er was sweating. She turned around and ran back to ask, "Daddy, daddy, didn't you say we were going to pick wild vegetables? Where are the wild vegetables? "
"Don't worry."
Zuo Yi lovingly wiped the sweat off her forehead. He took out two bamboo baskets from his space ring and handed one to her. "Daddy will teach you how to find them."
"Okay!"
The little girl happily took the basket and scanned the nearby bushes with her big black eyes.
Wild vegetables, where are the wild vegetables?
In fact, there were many wild vegetables. Zuo Yi taught the Bao'er to pick wild amaranth.
Wild amaranth was a very nutritious wild vegetable. It had the effect of clearing away heat, so it was very suitable to eat in the summer. It also had the effect of replenishing calcium, so the elderly and children could eat more of it.
When they were young, Zuo Qingyun often took Zuo Yi to pick wild amaranth nearby.
Now, Zuo Yi took the Bao'er with him.
He thought, how good would it be if his mother was still here.
The second update is for your recommendation, thank you very much!!
