He then produced several items, all of them being shattered Magical Artifacts that he had previously acquired from Gu Tongbing.
The Golden Saber, with an impassive expression, passed them to his disciple with a mere glance.
"All these broken items can be mended. The required materials have already been detailed by Lord Sword Master, and they can be requisitioned from the warehouse.
However, the specific weapon you desire won't be ready swiftly. I must return to my forge and craft it anew. The selection of materials warrants careful consideration. Furthermore, transforming a sword into a saber is no simple feat. May I inquire about the particular style of saber this distinguished individual prefers?"
Chen Yan’s initial inclination was to opt for the style of the Tang Blade.
Yet, this notion rapidly dissolved from his mind, and he immediately discarded it.
While the Tang Blade is often perceived as a popular online choice, its actual suitability might be questionable. The so-called Tang Blade found online frequently refers to the horizontal saber.
The genuine Tang Blade, however, is not a singular type of blade but rather a conceptual category encompassing several variations.
A significant drawback of the horizontal saber lies in its elongated and slender edge, rendering it susceptible to fracture under substantial impact.
Moreover, mastering the techniques to wield a horizontal saber demands a considerable degree of skill.
The blade style Chen Yan learned from Liang embodies a return-to-basics approach, broad and uninhibited, a style cultivated by Liang, the war-star, on the brutal battlefield. It prioritizes the most fundamental and effective methods of combat and striking, steering clear of intricate, minor skills.
After a period of contemplation, he retrieved paper and a writing implement, swiftly sketching the outline of a blade.
This was a...
Horse-cutting Sword!
This could indeed be classified as a form of Tang Blade, also known as the Great Cleaving Blade.
It is a formidable weapon, even considered a super-heavy blade among sabers.
Its back is thick and broad, its edge long and weighty, and its hilt is of considerable length.
For ground combat, it allows for two-handed use, or single-handed operation (though only monsters might manage this).
It adheres to a philosophy of overwhelming opponents with sheer power, forsaking elaborate techniques, thus aligning perfectly with the direct style taught by Liang.
Especially considering...
Chen Yan reflected on the fact that he was the possessor of Divine Tree Juice! And furthermore, he had the Divine Tree's root and stem!!
This implied that, in terms of raw physical strength, he was destined to become an exceptionally mighty general!
Moreover, the Divine Tree's root and stem possessed the ability to shatter limitations, enabling him to ascend to the status of a general surpassing all others!
Among all cultivators, his physical might would reach unparalleled extremes.
How could such a potent advantage be left unexploited! With such a physique, if not channeled into formidable strength, should it be wasted on ostentatious techniques?
The possession of Divine Tree Juice and the Divine Tree root and stem inherently dictated his future path, preordaining him for one singular purpose:
Achieving the extraordinary through sheer power!
"This is the one!"
Chen Yan pointed emphatically at his sketch, looking toward the Golden Saber. "Master, I implore you to forge this blade for me!"
The Golden Saber cast a glance at the drawing, a grin spreading across his face. "An unsightly sketch... however, having forged countless blades, I grasp your intent despite the roughness of your drawing. Rest assured, I shall craft this blade to your specifications."
Before he could finish speaking, the Golden Saber abruptly tossed an object onto the table – it was a porcelain bottle and a golden needle!
This particular needle was, in fact, hollow.
Chen Yan appeared taken aback. "What is this..."
"A golden needle to pierce your heart; I require ten drops of your heart's blood! Once the blade is forged, I shall temper it with your blood!
Upon receiving your heart's blood, the blade will then recognize you as its rightful master!"
Utterly astounded?
Chen Yan stared at the golden needle, noting its considerable length!
Such a lengthy needle, intended to pierce his very own heart??
Chen Yan cleared his throat. "Well... must it necessarily be heart's blood? Would finger blood suffice?
I must say, Master, it is best to avoid such superstitions. In reality, heart's blood and finger blood are fundamentally the same fluid, their composition identical, you see..."
"Cease your prattling! Pierce it yourself! If you are incapable of doing so, I can provide assistance."
