However, Chu Mo himself was already stunned by the spectacle, he was just thinking - although the Heaven Slaying sword is sentient, isn't particularly powerful. But no sooner did this thought cross his mind, then Heaven Slaying proved, through its action, that its consciousness and power surpassed his imaginations manifold.
Such a slap to his face!
What left Chu Mo speechless and amazed was that after being slashed by Heaven Slaying, the rotten iron sword didn't bear any marks at all!
That was absolutely astonishing!
Forget about a rotten iron sword, even many so-called divine weapons simply couldn't withstand a single slash from Heaven Slaying.
But, here's an interesting thing - under the oppressive might emanated by Heaven Slaying, it seemed like....the rotten iron sword was scared! In fact, it awkwardly inched towards Hua Xiaoya.
It had a tantrum just like a little child. Although feeling scared and wanting to seek the protection of its parent, deep down, it showed a bit of obstinacy....
"Damn it!" Chu Mo couldn't help but swear.
Hua Xiaoya too was flabbergasted. She instinctively stretched out her hand and held the hilt of the rotten iron sword.
Clang!
The rotten iron sword rang out surprisingly with the sound of a dragon's chant.
"....." at this sight, everyone who witnessed it was at a loss for words.
You're just a rusty iron sword, do you really need to behave like a divine artifact?!
By now, Chu Mo had also seized the Heaven Slaying and scolded, "Who asked you to come out?"
Boom!
The overwhelming aura that Heaven Slaying had just erupted with dispersed instantly. Then...it trembled as if a wronged child.
It was not satisfied!
It was unhappy!
Although Heaven Slaying couldn't speak, Chu Mo distinctly felt its emotions.
"Ha ha ha, it's communicating with me!" Hua Xiaoya suddenly burst into laughter. Holding the rotten iron sword, she exclaimed, "Treasured sword...the unparalleled treasured sword! Ha ha ha, I've struck it rich!"
In everyone's memory engrained the sight of a beautiful girl in plain clothes, holding a rusty iron sword, laughing wildly. This scene, even after many years, was brought up humorously by those in the know. It also became an embarrassing memory that Miss Hua would rather forget.
However, by this time, there were very few people who dared to make fun of her for this.
For others present, this incident was more like a legend, to be told to their descendants, proof that they had once witnessed the rise of a legend.
"Xingxue, Xingxue, come over, I want to compare which one is more powerful: my swordsmanship or your Medicine King Scripture." Hua Xiaoya waved the rotten iron sword ecstatically as she charged towards Shen Xingxue.
If anyone was still unsure by now that this was indeed a divine weapon, they had really wasted their lives.
Nonetheless, everyone's faces still held expressions of disbelief.
What they had pictured a divine weapon to be, was certainly not like this!
Its appearance...wasn't it too shabby?
At the very least, shouldn't it be somewhat like the weapon Chu Mo had at hand?
However, speaking of the weapon Chu Mo had...they suddenly realized it was even more terrifying than they had imagined!
Although it was just for a moment, they all felt the chill and had the feeling that the sword could strike them at any moment...and that they would not be able to dodge!
Zhou Jun and all other disciples from the Western Sea School, watching from afar, were stupefied. They couldn't believe their eyes.
The look in their eyes when they observed the crazy Hua Xiaoya was incredulously complicated.
What a hell of good luck!
No matter what, this time, Hua Xiaoya has really gotten hold of a big opportunity.
And this young lady, even though she wanted to share her joy with Chu Mo, deliberately went to Shen Xingxue. One, got a rusted copper stove; and the other, a rotten iron sword. Both of them were also given a scripture, so they genuinely had some common ground.
As expected, Gui Xu lived up to its fame!
It really contained unimaginable treasures.
If Shen Xingxue's discovery was good luck, then Hua Xiaoya's gains stirred up the enthusiasm of the entire group.
However, Gui Xu was too mysterious and risky.
So, the rest of the people all hoped Chu Mo could lead them to avoid the dangers.
Not only the younger generation, but also such seniors like He Feng, Hua Sanniang, and Xiao Yunlian who had achieved fame for many years, look at Chu Mo with anticipatory looks.
Chu Mo couldn't help but chuckle: "I can help you avoid some dangerous places, but whether there will be gains, that... truly depends on your individual blessings.
The crowd all nodded seriously. They clearly knew that Chu Mo was telling the truth. The rotten iron sword was lodged in the stone, why did others not see it? Why was it only found by Hua Xiaoya?
The same was true for the Medicine King Scripture that Shen Xingxue found. It looked like a worthless item lying there, yet why was it not seen by others?
Some matters, may sound profound and mysterious, yet that's simply the way it is.
The Matter of Opportunity!
Chu Mo led the crowd, expanding the safe area.
And by himself, he sought a cave, claiming that he needed two hours of undisturbed cultivation.
By now, Chu Mo had earned his own prestige among the crowd.
His commands even held more weight than those of the seniors like Hua Sanniang and He Feng, given they themselves obeyed him.
In reality, Chu Mo was planning to enter the Illusionary God Realm.
He had no choice. Gui Xu was simply too strange. Too many inexplicable things were happening.
Chu Mo was quite worried about Hua Sanniang. They had agreed, that if any danger arose, they would immediately enter the Illasionary God Realm. At the very least, he wanted to ensure that a safe message was left for Qin Shi and Dong Yu who were in Chugong.
Meanwhile, Chu Mo also wanted to consult the Realm Spirit on the subjects of the Medicine King Scripture and the rotten iron sword.
Chu Mo had just asked Hua Xiaoya. Hua Xiaoya hadn't known the name of the rotten iron sword, but she told Chu Mo that the rotten iron sword had passed a sword technique to her. It had a strange name, "Madam Gongsun's Sword Dance".
This name had left Hua Xiaoya perplexed for a while. She had really wanted to change it to "Hua Xiaoya's Sword Dance". But she had been rejected by the sword.
Chu Mo inquired how the sword rejected her. Hua Xiaoya thought for a while before vaguely telling Chu Mo with two words — a feeling.
Hua Xiaoya thought that Chu Mo would laugh at her then because it seemed too outrageous. However, Chu Mo didn't laugh at her because his communication with Heaven Slaying and the Sovereign Divine Mirror relied on the same extraordinary feeling.
They can understand each other's intentions without uttering a single word.
It was an extraordinary feeling.
Chu Mo's figure, first, appeared in Chugong. (To be continued. If you like this piece, please come to the starting point (qidian.com) to vote for recommendation, monthly pass. Your support will be my greatest motivation. Mobile phone users please go to m.qidian.com to read.)
