“There are nine swords, because the Eight Swords of Yue King are a whole, all of them are fierce weapons, and they need a supreme divine weapon to suppress them. So I used the Cheng Ying Sword to place it in the very center to suppress the fortune.”
The Cheng Ying Sword is one of the ten ancient divine weapons. Its sword shadow only exists when the sun disappears, and disappears as soon as the sun appears.
That evening, the swordsman returned to the pine forest to test his sword. The Cheng Ying sword was still nowhere to be seen. The swordsman held the hilt and drew a subtle arc in the air. Another swordsman, unaware of what was happening, was struck in the throat and killed instantly.
“What, an invisible sword?”
“Cheng Ying really exists, and it’s still in your hands?” Compared to Jiang Yuyan, the learned Shangguan Haitang naturally knew the legend of Cheng Ying. This was no ordinary divine weapon; it was a supreme divine weapon that was famous throughout history.
Zhang Weihao drew the Chengying Sword directly. In fact, it was a glass sword, but thanks to the Divine Refinement Technique, even in ancient times, Zhang Weihao could refine glass without any impurities, instead of glass.
Most importantly, Zhang Weihao reinforced and strengthened the glass itself in various ways, making it more powerful than the hardest tempered glass in modern society and far superior to the tempered steel of this time. Moreover, it has excellent true qi conductivity and can easily condense sword light on the tip and body of the sword. It is a transparent and colorless sword light that is dazzling and colorful under sunlight.
When Zhang Weihao officially revealed the terrifying power of the Cheng Ying Sword, Xue Qianxun and Jiang Yuyan were stunned. They never dreamed that such a powerful divine weapon existed in the world.
Jiang Yuyan: “You said you let Haitang choose whatever she wanted, but if Haitang chooses this Chengying sword… then what?”
“No problem, give her what she likes. It’s just a supreme weapon; I have more here.”
Zhang Weihao could forge such a sword anytime he wanted. The Divine Machine Hundred Refinements also needed to continuously improve its proficiency and level through this method. He couldn’t use up all the swords he had, so he might as well use them to cause trouble. Anyway, he wasn’t short of money.
Xue Qianxun knew where these divine weapons came from, so she wasn’t too heartbroken. However, she still looked envious. Who wouldn’t love such supreme divine weapons? If her sister knew, she would be overjoyed.
Shangguan Haitang and Jiang Yuyan had no idea; one was deeply moved, and the other was consumed by jealousy.
“Then what about me? I also contributed. I gave you my body, so you can’t be biased.”
“You don’t even know swordsmanship. We’ll talk about it after you break through to the Innate Grandmaster level and comprehend the true sword intent. Otherwise, you’re not as good as someone who’s unarmed.”
Jiang Yuyan thought about it and realized that it made sense. Mingyu Gong didn’t need any weapons at all; the hands were the most powerful weapons. Yihua Palace was not without powerful divine weapons. Bixue Zhaodanqing was ranked third among the top ten divine weapons in the martial arts world. Of course, that was all in the past.
Compared to the ancient divine weapon in the hands of Young Master Lingyu, the Ten Divine Weapons of the Martial World are a joke, and may not even be as good as the Eight Swords of King Yue.
In any case, if this Cheng Ying Sword were to enter the martial arts world, it would definitely be recognized as the number one divine weapon. Even kings, generals, hermits, and masters, and even the emperor would be very tempted.
Shangguan Haitang reacted instantly. Such a divine weapon was beyond her capabilities; even her adoptive father, the Iron-Blooded Marquis, might not be able to handle it. It was better to choose a more understated one.
However, Zhang Weihao refused. He had brought it out because he intended to give it to Shangguan Haitang, since she was really bad at the game and her daily work was really dangerous.
After the test drive, Zhang Weihao was quite satisfied with her. After all, she was the Cecilia Cheung version, an enhanced version. Moreover, Shangguan Haitang had high emotional intelligence and intelligence, and outstanding abilities. She was the most suitable candidate for secretary assistant, even more suitable than Xue Qianxun. She was a rare talent in internal affairs.
His harem is currently lacking such talent.
“Take it if I give it to you. Once you break through to the Innate Realm, I will pass on the complete Five Ultimate Divine Skills to you. During this time, you can stay by my side and accompany me to the exams, and keep me company.”
It would be a lie to say that she didn’t like such a supreme weapon. Since Zhang Weihai insisted, Shangguan Haitang naturally wouldn’t refuse.
However, just as Shangguan Haitang was about to reach out and touch the sword, Zhang Weihao immediately stopped her, saying, “Don’t touch it directly with your hands. You should wait until you can protect yourself with innate qi, otherwise you will easily be injured by the sharp sword qi. This sword is not just ordinary sharp.”
Shangguan Haitang, who was about to reach out and touch the almost completely transparent sword blade, suddenly stopped. She naturally did not think that Zhang Weihai was joking with her. She casually and gently slashed at the strange stone placed in front of her in the courtyard as decoration. As a result, it seemed that there was no resistance at all. It was like a hot knife cutting tofu, and it flashed by in an instant.
To Jiang Yuyan and Xue Qianxun, it was as if a wisp of air had passed by and the strange stone had been split in two. Such a bizarre and terrifying weapon would be extremely dangerous to face, and it would be very easy to fall into the opponent’s trap. It was truly terrifying.
Shangguan Haitang was naturally taken aback by the sharpness of Chengying. Moreover, the blade was incredibly hard, possessing all the characteristics of a divine weapon. In addition, it was almost transparent and had no shadow on its blade. This was simply an invincible weapon. In the hands of a truly skilled swordsman, it could definitely dominate the martial arts world.
“It’s already June, and the autumn imperial examinations are just around the corner. Let’s rest for a day and head to Yingtian Prefecture early tomorrow morning.”
Based on the actual distance, even using highways, the journey from Hengshan City to Yingtianfu, which is Nanjing City, is about a thousand kilometers, or two thousand li. In ancient times, it would have been even farther, with six thousand li not being an exaggeration. So it’s about time to start your journey. Traveling two hundred li a day, it would take about a month to arrive.
After all, Zhang Weihao and his group were clearly sightseeing and enjoying themselves. It was a leisurely trip for young masters, not a real journey, so their speed was definitely not very fast. It was reasonable for them to arrive two months early.
