Chapter Six Hundred and Ninety Four Weapon Layering Craftsmanship
“He rented a mo weapon pool?” The chief steward was slightly surprised. The trio that visited the other day had attracted his interest and he had ordered his subordinates to pay attention to their movements.
“Yes, they rented the Heaven tier mo weapon pool.” The subordinate had investigated thoroughly and hurried back to report.
“Heaven tier!” The middle-aged mo stilled. Of course he knew what this meant. Only those with some skill would dare to rent a heaven tier mo weapon pool. As the highest grade of mo weapon pool in Bu Zhou City, it was expensive to rent. The volume of water was astounding, and it was so difficult to control that almost nobody used it.
Was there a mo weapon master among them?
The face of the average-looking youth flashed across the mind of the middle-aged mo but he suddenly realized that, no matter how hard he thought back, he could not remember the details of the youth’s appearance. The other two females were also so ordinary that he could not remember them.
He was experienced and he immediately realized the trio had probably disguised themselves.
But his thoughts did not linger on the question. There were many people in these chaotic times that did not like others knowing their identities. Those with power always had their own eccentricities. What he cared about were mo weapon masters, especially powerful mo weapon masters. Any strong mo weapon master meant an endless and steady profit for a business.
Mo weapon masters were a kind of resource, and a powerful mo weapon master was a resource that had to be fought over.
Thinking about the youth’s cool and confident expression, the middle-aged mo’s heart reflexively jumped.
Earth level mo weapon!
If he could really forge one … …
The mind of the middle-aged mo which he always prided himself on being unaffected by anything was immediately disturbed.
“Pay close attention, I need to know all the details! Do not be afraid of spending money, understand?” It was rare that the middle-aged mo tone was so serious.
“Yes! This subordinate understands!”
In Zuo Mo’s view, of the three great cultivation systems, for forging, he had to admit that the xiuzhe far surpassed the other two races. Seal scripts were a vast and complex field that yao and mo could not compare to.
In comparison, while mo matrices were their own system, they were not as well-developed as seal scripts. But even so, those in the mo territories that understood mo matrices were considered well-learned and were few in number.
This was related to the attitude of mo towards their mo weapons.
The forging methods of mo weapons were usually simple and crude but there was something that the xiuzhe could not rival them in, materials. The materials that were used in mo weapons were usually a part of the mo themselves, for example, a feather, or nails. So while mo weapons were crudely made, but after being tempered daily and affinity granted by having come from a part of the owner’s body, they were as a literal extension of their own bodies.
However, those were just average mo weapons.
Top level mo weapons such as the earth mo weapons were not so easy to make.
Of the one hundred and eight earth mo weapons, other than the extremely rare few that had been forged by the user, the great majority were forged by mo weapon masters.
For mo weapon masters, forging an earth level mo weapon was the highest goal of their lifetime. The makers of the twelve sky mo weapons were the most accomplished mo weapon masters of their era, and the best mo weapon masters in mo history. Each of their names represented a legend.
In Zuo Mo’s view, forging earth level mo weapons were not a very difficult matter. He only needed the necessary materials. Even if he didn’t have any, he could still accomplish it through unorthodox methods such as using weapon layering. But the creation of sky mo weapons was out of the range of his abilities.
There were many mo weapon masters gathered around the mo weapon pools of Bu Zhou City. Many people stayed here for many years to forge mo weapons. This city quarter had, long ago, developed into an area for mo weapon masters and provided a large group of residents a way to make a living. Meaning it was possible to buy most common materials from these suppliers.
This saved Zuo Mo a lot of time.
After spending two million mo bei on all kinds of materials, Zuo Mo had finished his preparations.
The monthly rent for the heaven tier mo weapon pool was about five hundred thousand mo bei. In other words, without even starting, Zuo Mo had paid two and a half million in mobei. The wealthy Zuo Mo did not feel anything regarding the expense.
Two and a half million mo bei was just the price of an above average general level mo weapon.
He had a whole pile of general level mo weapons in his ring. This relatively small expenditure was not enough to make him feel pain.
But while he did not feel pain, it did not mean that other people did not feel pain. The mo weapon masters around the Underground Nether River quickly learned that there was someone who had come and spent twomillion on materials in one go.
When they heard that this person had also rented the heaven teir mo weapon pool, it attracted their attention.
There were two guesses about this person. Either this person was a wastrel or he was someone accomplished!
Zuo Mo did not have the idle time to listen to the gossip. His time was tight. The sky shark would only stay here for a few days.
If he didn’t have the weapon layering craftsmanship up his sleeve, and that the complete set of White Ridge Snake Bones being so important to Ceng Lian’er, Zuo Mo definitely would not waste his time on this.
But since he had started, he would naturally do his best!
‘Waste’ was not a word in Little Mo Ge’s vocabulary.
Ceng Lian’er and A Gui stood guard outside the mo weapon pool to prevent others from disturbing Zuo Mo.
The heaven tier mo weapon pool was about half a mu large. The thick and black pool water flowed in from the Underground Nether River and formed a natural whirlpool in the pool .The whirlpool spun at a stunning speed like thousands of horses racing. A thick, dark, and cold presence emanated from it. Those with slightly weaker constitutions would feel cold all over, and would suffer internal injuries if exposed for long periods of time.
But Zuo Mo’s mo physique was yang and domineering so he didn’t feel any discomfort at all.
He made a circle around the mo weapon pool and nodded in satisfaction. The riverwater of the Underground Nether River was pure and yin in attribute. There were large amounts of mo matrices set up around the heaven tier mo weapon pool. The vast amount of water would be able to completely wash and temper the materials.
