Chapter 263 – Benefits from the Seven Star Dragon Abyss Sword, the Possibility of Improving Forging Ability (2)
A man behind Sun Gongping smiled. “These fiends are much harder to deal with than demonic beasts. Although demonic beasts have intelligence, they are not so scheming. Fiends are different.
“It’s the first time you’ve killed one. You’re lucky to have discovered their whereabouts so quickly.
“When I first joined the Fiend Eradication Army, it took me a whole year to find traces of a fiend. In the end, I almost let him turn the tables.”
These people were actually from the Fiend Eradication Army.
The three armies of Great Xia were the Country Protector Army, Demon Executing Army, and Fiend Eradication Army.
The Country Protector Army was composed mostly of unranked martial artists, and they mainly took on the army missions.
The Demon Executing Army was responsible for dealing with demonic beasts.
As for the Fiend Eradication Army, they were responsible for dealing with those who had fallen into the demonic path, which were the fiends that this Fiend Eradication Army soldier mentioned.
“I’m puzzled. Do these fiends have nothing better to do? They keep thinking about destroying this and that. We should really return them to the furnace and let them be reborn!” Sun Gongping said unhappily.
“Isn’t that the mission of our Fiend Eradication Army?” the Fiend Eradication Army soldier smiled.
“Young Marquis, we have to hurry. These fiends are very vigilant. It will be difficult to find them again.”
The Fiend Eradication Army went on their way.
Sun Gongping nodded. “We have to hurry. I slept for a while and thought that being a sixth-rank martial artist wasn’t bad. I didn’t expect that fellow to be able to fight the Qin emperor to a draw!”
He drew the Seven Star Dragon Abyss Sword from behind his back, his face full of killing intent.
“Let’s go!” He kicked off and shot into the air.
…
[The Seven Star Dragon Abyss Sword you forged effectively completed a kill. You are rewarded with Forging Materials Knowledge (100 types).]
Zhou Shu, who was planning what he would do for the Ten Nations Martial Arts Tournament, suddenly saw a message flash past.
Then a ball of light exploded in his consciousness, and information surged into his mind.
In an instant, he seemed to have learned a lot.
This benefit had less information than before.
So before Zhou Shu could feel uncomfortable, the entire process was over.
With a thought, he realized that a lot of knowledge about forging materials had appeared in his mind.
[Fine iron, refined from iron ore. The extraction method…]
[Black iron, smelted from iron ore mixed with several other ores. It’s black and hard…
[Crimson copper, produced from Shouyang Mountain. It’s the color of flames and contains the power of flames. After it is incorporated into a weapon, the weapon would have the power of fire…]
One material after another, from the source of the forging materials to their appearance, characteristics, and how they were used, it was all very detailed.
Good stuff!
Zhou Shu was pleasantly surprised.
This time, he really liked this benefit from the Legendary Armament Canon.
Zhou Shu had now mastered the Dragon Elephant Prajna Technique and Golden Bell Shield Technique. His desire for martial strength was no longer as strong.
Instead, he wanted to improve his forging ability.
After all, he can’t keep forging yellow-grade weapons.
As a forger, who wouldn’t want to forge a heaven-grade weapon?
For forgers, the mastery of forging materials was definitely the foundation among the foundation.
In the past, Zhou Shu’s foundation wasn’t very good. His mastery of forging materials was mostly derived from the weapons in the Legendary Armament Canon.
Later on, Yin Wuyou had brought some related books for him from the imperial library, allowing him to gain a lot of knowledge.
He had been deliberately cramming knowledge of the subject.
But his progress was very slow.
After all, it was difficult to learn it by himself.
To be honest, he wasn’t even as good as Shi Songtao in this regard.
The characteristics and use of forging materials were directly related to the foundation of a weapon.

The foundation of a weapon was how many star paths it could withstand. In other words, what materials were used and how the materials were combined were directly related to the upper limit of a weapon!
If the wrong forging materials were used and the weapon’s foundation was insufficient, then no matter how high the level of star fixing, the weapon couldn’t have enough star paths because it couldn’t withstand it.
Take Zhou Shu’s Great Destroyer Sword for example. As long as a few more star positions formed a star path, it might become a black-grade weapon. But the number of star paths it could withstand had already reached its limit, and another star position could make it collapse.
If he wanted to increase its star position, he had to improve its material first.
This was similar to injecting too much spiritual essence into a weak body. The only outcome would be the person exploding and dying.
What restricted Zhou Shu’s forging ability had never been his star positioning technique but his grasp of forging materials.
With his divine sense, positioning stars wasn’t difficult for him.
The difficulty lay in how to increase the foundation of the weapon through the casting of forging materials.
Now, the benefits from the Seven Star Dragon Abyss Sword would make up for his shortcoming.
I’ve already mastered one hundred types of forging materials. No one in the world will be more familiar with them than me, Zhou Shu thought excitedly. Unfortunately, one hundred is still too little.
There were billions of forging materials in the world, and he only knew one hundred types now.
But Zhou Shu didn’t care. He wouldn’t be far from gaining more knowledge on forging materials.
I wonder where Sun Gongping went to gain experience.
I hope he can complete more kills. That way, I’ll have knowledge of more and more forging materials.
As long as he gained knowledge of enough forging materials, Zhou Shu felt that he would be able to try forging higher-grade weapons.
Sun Gongping is also participating in the Ten Nations Martial Arts Tournament. When the time comes, he will definitely complete more kills.
Zhou Shu thought happily, With the mastery of these hundred weapons, I can make more preparations. The Ten Nations Martial Arts Tournament is a rare opportunity. I can’t waste it.
Zhou Shu recalled the information about the hundred types of forging materials in his mind. The information kept colliding, and he felt his mind fill with inspiration.
These hundred types of forging materials are only the most basic forging materials. It’s a little difficult to use them to forge a black-grade weapon, but I can give it a try now.
Sun Gongping, Sun Gongping, you have to work harder. Before the Ten Nations Martial Arts Tournament begins, whether I can forge a black-grade weapon will depend on you.
Before he could finish the thought, a barrage of messages flashed before his eyes.
[The Seven Star Dragon Abyss Sword you forged effectively completed a kill. You are rewarded with Forging Materials Knowledge (10 types).]
Zhou Shu was overjoyed.
…
Thousands of miles away, Sun Gongping shook off the blood on his sword, looking a little unsatisfied. “These fiends are quite arrogant, but they can’t withstand our attacks.”
The other Fiend Eradication Army soldiers were speechless.
With so many of us besieging the two of them, how can we blame them for being unable to withstand our attacks?
You’ll see how crazy they are when you run into large groups of fiends.
These people are inhuman when they turn crazy.
“Young Marquis, let’s go,” a Fiend Eradication Army soldier said. “We’ve caused a commotion. Even if there are other fiends nearby, they’re probably already escaping.
“We’ll have to start from the beginning again.”
Sun Gongping was a little embarrassed. He had been too excited just now. Otherwise, with so many of them, they could have completely eliminated the two fiends silently.
He was still a little inexperienced.
The Fiend Eradication Army soldier also realized that he might have said the wrong thing. He smiled and diverted the topic. “Young Marquis, the sword in your hand is very powerful. These fiends are also holding yellow-grade weapons, but they were actually cut into half by your sword.”
“Of course. My Seven Star Dragon Abyss Sword is ranked tenth on the Yellow-grade Armament Manual.”
Sun Gongping said proudlym “My brother forged this for me himself.
“When we return to Chang’an, I’ll introduce my brother to you. When the time comes, you can also change your weapons. I’m not bragging, but my brother’s forging ability is…”
He gave a thumbs-up.
The Fiend Eradication Army soldiers cheered.
“Who is your brother, Young Marquis?”
“Our Great Xia’s King of the South, the master of the Forging Division’s Huaxia Pavilion, the number one forging genius in the world, is my brother!” Sun Gongping patted his chest.
