Chapter 37 Really putting on a show!
Gu Yu had only whimsically suggested that the Ten Thousand Year Mysterious Ice shape itself into a weapon.
In his understanding, such fancy maneuvers would never happen.
But!
Now, it really happened!
Right before his eyes!
With several exclamation marks, Gu Yu watched as the Ten Thousand Year Mysterious Ice in front of him, like a piece of mud, twisted and turned, clumped together and then separated. It was originally quite thick, but now it had already turned into a pool of liquid.
Such a magical scene made Gu Yu’s jaw drop.
What the heck is this thing!!!
“Gu Yu, is this the ore you’re using to forge weapons?”
As Gu Yu stared in astonishment at the Ten Thousand Year Mysterious Ice transforming itself, Blacksmith Guo, who was standing beside him, suddenly spoke. His voice was filled with shock, and he was full of questions about this piece of red stone.
This was no longer a matter of whether it could be forged, but rather what this red stone actually was!
How could it understand human speech?
Could it be some kind of heavenly treasure?
“It’s just a stone I picked up casually. I liked the color and wanted to forge a weapon with it.”
“Then…”
“There’s no need to be so surprised. Just watch from the side.”
Gu Yu felt quite troubled by Blacksmith Guo’s questions and didn’t know what to say.
Should he tell Blacksmith Guo directly… that this Ten Thousand Year Mysterious Ice had become sentient because it had existed for too long!
And that the resulting spirit was in his space.
Did he want to take a look together?
Blacksmith Guo certainly wouldn’t believe him if he just said that, but if he brought out the spirit, Gu Yu was afraid of scaring him badly.
For now, he could only continue to witness the transformation of the Ten Thousand Year Mysterious Ice.
If he had known that the Ten Thousand Year Mysterious Ice could transform itself, why would he have come here!
Wasn’t he just asking for trouble!
“It’s changing, it’s changing, it’s actually almost taking the shape of a spearhead!”
While Gu Yu and Blacksmith Guo were talking, Luo Xiuyong was staring intently at the Ten Thousand Year Mysterious Ice with bright eyes. When it gradually took the shape of a spearhead, he immediately shouted out loud.
This… this is truly too magical!
He had lived for more than half his life but had never seen such a magical thing.
He had truly lived in vain!
As Luo Xiuyong was sighing with emotion, his eyes did not leave the Ten Thousand Year Mysterious Ice. He continued to observe, wanting to see what the final appearance would be.
Gu Yu and Blacksmith Guo, who were standing beside him, also cast their gazes over. They personally watched as the red stone on the table continuously changed, finally taking the shape of a spearhead.
That wasn’t all.
Then, the spearhead actually split open and quickly outlined complex patterns, without the need for later carving.
Such an operation naturally caused Gu Yu and the other two to be even more astonished. They wondered if this stone could truly understand human speech?
After the Ten Thousand Year Mysterious Ice successfully transformed, Gu Yu didn’t wait for the two people beside him to admire it for a while longer. He immediately put the finished spearhead into a cloth bag to prevent any further complications.
This Ten Thousand Year Mysterious Ice was too ostentatious!
It was really putting on a show!
After Gu Yu put the spearhead into the cloth bag, a “clanging” sound came from behind him, causing Gu Yu to immediately look down.
He saw that the Ten Thousand Year Mysterious Ice that had become a spearhead, due to its sharpness, had actually torn a large hole in the cloth bag and leaked out directly.
This made Gu Yu twitch his mouth. He could only snatch the spearhead from the ground before anyone else could reach for it.
It wasn’t that he was worried about Luo Xiuyong and Blacksmith Guo stealing the item, but rather that the Ten Thousand Year Mysterious Ice was too strange. If they touched it rashly, they might pay with their lives!
Gu Yu had not forgotten that the first time he saw the Ten Thousand Year Mysterious Ice, he had directly bled from his nose.
However, why didn’t others bleed from their noses when they saw the Ten Thousand Year Mysterious Ice???
Did he have a particularly poor constitution compared to everyone else?
“Gu Yu, this… do you have any more of this kind of ore?”
“No more. And I advise you not to be too curious! This thing is quite strange. Ordinary people can’t control it. Only those with a body full of malevolent energy can wield it.”
Seeing Blacksmith Guo looking restless, Gu Yu knew that as a blacksmith, he was most curious about ores.
However, Gu Yu directly shook his head.
He would never foolishly give away something as precious as the Ten Thousand Year Mysterious Ice.
Even if the other party offered money in return, it was estimated that not even the emperor could afford the Ten Thousand Year Mysterious Ice in his hand.
So, it was better to just go back to sleep!
Furthermore, Blacksmith Guo couldn’t control the Ten Thousand Year Mysterious Ice, and keeping it with him often could bring him trouble.
Originally, Gu Yu had wanted to make small pieces into jade pendants or other decorations to give to his younger brother-in-law and the others to wear.
However, after the spirit learned of his idea, it directly shook its head and said that it was absolutely not possible.
When asked why, the spirit immediately stated… that the malevolent energy of the Ten Thousand Year Mysterious Ice was too heavy. If ordinary people obtained it, they would not be able to suppress this malevolent energy and would instead harm themselves.
This made Gu Yu very worried about whether his little wife would be harmed!
If she were really harmed, Gu Yu would rather throw away the Ten Thousand Year Mysterious Ice than allow his wife to suffer even the slightest harm!
However, fortunately, there were no major problems.
Mengyao’s (Female) body had too much malevolent energy. It was actually a good thing for her to wear the Ten Thousand Year Mysterious Ice often, as it could help her absorb the malevolent energy and prevent her from deviating from the correct path in her future cultivation.
Hearing this, Gu Yu looked at the spirit doubtfully, wondering if this guy wanted to go to the battlefield to drink blood, and was making up stories to deceive him?
Thinking of the amnesia prescription in the Medical Scripture, Gu Yu did not have much doubt.
What came from the space was definitely a high-quality product.
He would not let the spirit regain its memory so quickly… Besides, even if it really recovered its memory, with a bucket of spring water to drink heartily every day, the spirit was happily wandering around every day and couldn’t be driven away.
After discovering that the Ten Thousand Year Mysterious Ice could change its shape on its own, Gu Yu immediately took his leave of Luo Xiuyong and Blacksmith Guo and quickly headed towards the back garden of the Tang Sect, wanting to accompany his little wife to visit other places.
As for forging weapons with the Ten Thousand Year Mysterious Ice, it had not been successful yet, so it was better not to take it out for now.
He would give it to his little wife after it was completely made!
However, later on, the Ten Thousand Year Mysterious Ice could transform itself into a long sword, but where would he find a sword sheath?
And the spear shaft would also need to be carefully found.
What material could withstand the power of the Ten Thousand Year Mysterious Ice?
“Benefactor, this old monk sees you have affinity. I shall bestow this item upon you!”
Just as Gu Yu was thinking about meeting his little wife quickly, he unexpectedly heard a strange man’s voice, which drilled directly into his ears.
Just by listening, he sounded quite old!
And the words “old monk” in it, did it mean an old Buddhist monk?
Thinking about these things, Gu Yu curiously walked towards the source of the sound, wanting to see why there was a monk in the Tang Sect???
