Looking at the results of his one sword strike, Han Chen could not help but smile.
”That's right.” ”Not far away, blind monk walked over, his tone filled with praise. In a short span of twenty days, it's rare for you to be able to integrate sword intent into your moves. ”
”blind monk Elder Muse Zai.” Han Chen cupped his fists and respectfully bowed slightly.
”Han Chen, this is only your first time seeing the sword intent. In the future, there will be sword after heart, man and sword as one. The sword has no me, this profound mystery of sword intent, and you will have to comprehend it on your own. Now that I have passed on all seven forms of the Blood Drop Sword to you, you don't have to come here every day and practice it at your own place. ”
Han Chen nodded, after twenty days of interaction. Han Chen had a deeper contact with the blind monk. He immediately fell to one knee, solemnly bowing.
”Elder blind monk, I am indebted to you for teaching me the seven forms of the Blood Drop Sword.
”Between you and me, there is no need to be so courteous.” blind monk went forward and casually helped Han Chen up.
”Elder blind monk, just now you said that after the sword intent was sent out, the sword would follow your heart. ”Then what stage are you at now?”
”The sword strikes at will.”
”What?” Han Chen was shocked, and could not help but blurt out. Is the sword following its heart really this powerful? ”
blind monk took a deep breath, ”There are people in the Outer World. The journey of sword cultivation is vast and profound. When you used your sword's potential to wound people, that was when you called yourself a swordsman. Now that you've seen the sword intent for the first time, you can be considered a true sword cultivator. When you reach the stage where your sword is ready to strike, you will be a sword expert. ”
The blind monk paused for a moment before continuing, ”The expert who has reached the One with the Sword, is the King of the Swords. As for the last person without a sword and no self, he is the ruler, and is known as the Sword Saint. ”
Hearing the blind monk's description, Han Chen was secretly amazed. He was truly ignorant and ill-informed. He had not expected that a long sword would have so much knowledge.
But then again, even an expert like the blind monk only managed to comprehend the sword at will. One could imagine how difficult the next two realms were. How many Sword Saints could there be in this world?
”Show me your sword.” The blind monk said indifferently.
”Hmm?” Han Chen was startled at first, but immediately presented the short sword in both hands.
blind monk took the broken sword and felt around the blade with both hands. After a while, he said, ”The sword is a good sword, but it's a waste sword. ”Where did you get it?”
”The third floor of the Treasure Vault. The reward from the academy after I passed the three cauldrons of the Dragon Subduing Formation.”
”Oh? There are so many kinds of top-grade treasures in the Treasure Vault, why did you only choose this broken sword? ”
”Me?” Han Chen hesitated for a moment, before replying, ”In the entire treasure pavilion, there was a broken sword, obviously a little out of place. I think it's a little strange. ”
The The Supreme Divine Diagram's secret could not be leaked out. This was the only explanation Han Chen could give.
blind monk did not doubt his words, ”You have a good eye, this broken sword is a sub-saint artifact.”
Sub-Sage Equipment? Han Chen was shocked, he looked at the other party with a confused expression. The blind monk handed the broken sword back to Han Chen, ”The Sub-Holy Equipment is a treasure that has surpassed the top quality weapons, but it has not reached the level of a Holy-ranked equipment yet. This broken sword has lost its edge. If it was able to use the same material on this sword to refine a section of blade, it should be able to be repaired. ”
”Really? Then what is the material used for this broken sword? ”
”If my guess is correct, it should be a Profound Stone, Black Copper Crystal.”
blind monk's words were like a bucket of cold water that splashed all over Han Chen. If it was in the past, Han Chen would innocently ask what a profound stone, black copper crystal was. But these days, whenever he had the time, he would study the artifact forging techniques left behind by the Dwarf Patsy. In addition, he would often listen to the refiner instructor Zuo Gang's lecture.
So Han Chen knew about these black copper crystals on the Profound Stone. This kind of rare material used to create Holy-ranked Equipment could be compared with the Flowering Iron Tree in Han Chen's Storage Bracelet.
”Do we have to have black copper crystals for the mystical stones? Can we use other metals instead? ” Han Chen asked.
blind monk's answer however, was negative, ”You must use a profound stone, Black Copper Crystal.”
Just as Han Chen was feeling depressed, he flipped his palm and a piece of black metal the size of an adult's fist appeared out of nowhere. It just so happens that I have a piece of Profound Stone, which you can take first. ”
Han Chen's eyes immediately lit up, surprise and gratitude gushing into his heart.
”Don't be happy too early.” blind monk handed the Profound Stone, Black Copper Crystal over, ”This is not enough, you need to fulfill two more conditions.”
”What?”
”The first is a Master Refiner who understands the art of condensation. Secondly, it was a support material called Purple Inscription Gold. With the Purple Inscription Gold, the newly created sword blade will be able to perfectly merge with the broken sword. ”
”Where can I get the Purple Inscription Gold?” Han Chen asked.
