697 Choose the Sword, Choose the Owner
Taking out a jade-white silk scarf, Han Muye gently placed it on the hilt of his sword.
There was a sword evaluation process.
The silk scarf wrapped around the hilt of the sword. With his other hand, he held the scabbard and slowly drew the sword.
The sword light was cold, and spiritual light flowed.
It was indeed a rare and good sword.
Shao Tianyi watched from the side with a hint of desire in his eyes.
He had been in the Life Stealing Tower for so many years, but he had never had a good sword.
On the other hand, Zeng Daniu did not know anything about swords. He could only tell from the flowing light that the sword was extraordinary.
He was even more nervous about whether his shopkeeper could evaluate the information of the sword.
Jia Wu and Shen Fugui looked at each other, then turned to look at Han Muye.
Han Muye had already unsheathed the sword. He put down the scabbard in his left hand, then gently pressed his fingers on the sword ridge and slowly advanced.
The movement of the flesh and blood, the passing of spiritual energy through the spine, this was the basic method of evaluating the sword.
Seeing his actions, a trace of disappointment flashed across Miss Yu’s face.
She thought that she would meet a true sword expert.
How capable could this basic method be?
“The name of the sword is Fu Yu. Its name means to support the destruction of the mountains and rivers and celebrate the remaining years.”
How capable could this basic method be?
On the inscription was the name of the sword.
Fu Yu.
“The sword is three feet long. The hilt weighs three pounds and five taels. The blade is more than two feet long and three points wide.
“Blood grooves on the spine of the sword. Deeper by one point.”
Han Muye whispered the information on the sword.
A trace of impatience flashed across Miss Yu’s face as she stood in front of him.
Anyone who had cultivated some Sword Dao techniques would be able to understand this information.
Jia Wu and Shen Fugui also frowned.
Han Muye had previously shown his confidence, so Shen Fugui invited Miss Yu over.
If that was all he had, why did he need to recommend him?
The only one who looked happy was Zeng Daniu.
To be able to tell the severity of the sword just by touching it, my shopkeeper’s ability should be very powerful, right?
Han Muye slowly raised his sword and looked at the blade.
“This sword is made of jade steel mixed with heavy iron sand and bright edge gold.”
At this point, Han Muye narrowed his eyes, and a deep spiritual light flashed.
Since he wanted to subdue the other party, how could he just say this?
“The Dual Forging and Hundred Refinements Technique. The heavy iron sand weighed three and a half taels. It was inserted into the sword during the third refinement.”
Han Muye’s words made Miss Yu’s expression change drastically.
“You—”
This was Wind Forest’s unique sword forging technique. How could the other party be so clear about it?
Jia Wu and Shen Fugui widened their eyes.
Sword evaluation can also evaluate the specific forging technique of a sword?
If he has such a method, doesn’t that mean that no sword has any secrets from Han Muye?
Then will Han Muye see through the unique manuals of the refining masters and refining mills on Scattered Stars Island?
“The Bright Edge Gold weighed 0.3 taels. After the sword was formed, the gold was purified with boiling water and high heat and fused into the sword.”
The chill in Miss Yu’s body had already condensed to the extreme. Shao Tianyi, who was at the side, raised his hand and pulled Zeng Daniu behind him.
Jia Wu and Shen Fugui looked pale.
Had they heard something they shouldn’t have?
Han Muye acted as if he did not see the coldness in Miss Yu and said, “There are five spiritual patterns engraved on the body of this sword. They are all to increase the strength and compatibility of the wind attribute.
“It’s just that the Three Wind Valley’s sun runes are slightly to the left, so when this sword swings, there will be a slight difference in landing points.”
After a pause, Han Muye pointed the sword forward and slowly slashed horizontally.
“This sword is good for horizontal slashes. If you can increase the pressure on the sword’s edge when stabbing forward, it will be more effective.
“It’s best if the sword technique executed with this sword doesn’t involve moving too much because the fifth Spirit Rune Wind and the Rune Seeking Wind won’t move. You have to be calm.”
…
He finished his evaluation of the sword, spiritual materials, and forging methods.
After evaluating the forging methods, he evaluated the spirit runes.
After evaluating the spirit runes, he evaluated the sword technique.
After evaluating the sword technique, he evaluated how to maximize the advantage of this sword.
Even the blacksmith who personally refined this sword wouldn’t be able to evaluate a sword like this, right?
Miss Yu’s expression changed, and the coldness in her body had long dissipated. She stared at the sword in Han Muye’s hand.
She knew most of what Han Muye had said.
But she hadn’t given it much thought.
There was a small portion that she did not know. It was not difficult to deduce.
However, she had never deduced it before.
“Selling swords to those who need them is the mission of my sword shop.”
Han Muye sheathed the sword and gently wiped the back of his fingers with a silk scarf. He looked up at Miss Yu. “How to refine a truly spiritual sword is the pursuit of refiners.”
Eldest Miss Yu nodded and bowed. “I’ve learned something.”
This humble and respectful attitude surprised Jia Wu and Shen Fugui.
Who is Miss Yu?
She’s the best among the juniors of Wind Forest Sword Furnace, a well-known elite in the refining field of Scattered Stars Island.
Such a person actually bowed so respectfully!
“You flatter me.” Han Muye waved his hand and said, “This refiner likes to retain some internal heat when he’s hardening the sword by quenching. This makes the sword more brittle. It’s not a good thing.”
After saying that, he glanced at Miss Yu. “When you encounter a top-notch sword master and when the two swords collide, this sword can be broken with one strike if it’s struck at the ninth point of the spine.
“In such a battle, if the sword is broken, it means death. I don’t think anyone can live to tell this blacksmith about the flaw in the sword refinement.”
These words made Miss Yu’s expression extremely solemn.
The sword produced by the sword furnace was fatally flawed.
