The sword didn't look particularly outstanding. It was made of bronze, and its style was rather ancient. There weren't too many gorgeous decorations, but there was a row of rather charming ancient characters engraved on the body of the sword.
"An inch of lovesickness, an inch of ash."
Han Sen slowly read the word "sword." It was just a few simple words, but it made people feel the pain of lovesickness.
Jian Bu Gu said, "That is right. This is the sword. When I first saw it, I thought it was a lovesick sword."
After saying that, he saw Qin Bai was about to step into the empty space. Jian Bu Gu stepped forward and blocked Jian Bu Gu's path. He casually said, "That sword is different from the swords in Soldier Weapon Sky. This empty space is its territory. You cannot enter it."
"Mister, what will happen if we enter it?" Jia Shi Zhen politely asked.
Jian Bu Gu's calm face looked weird. "It is not a big problem. If it is not necessary, do not go in."
"Will it not be life-threatening?" Qin Bai asked.
"Normally, it should not be life-threatening," Jian Bu Gu said. "That sword does not hurt people. If you really want it, you can go in and try. Perhaps you will find something good there."
"That is good. I want to see what kind of sword it is."
Qin Bai's eyesight was not that good. He could not see it. His heart was itching. When he heard Jian Bu Gu say there was no life-threatening danger, he stepped into the empty space.
Thousand Mile Reach and Jia Shi Zhen could tell there was a deeper meaning to Jian Bu Gu's words. If Qin Bai went in, they had to follow.
Han Sen and Bao 'er followed. Only Jian Bu Gu did not move. He stood in the forest of weapons. He watched them go and said to himself, "Although it should not be life-threatening, that sword is a pain in the ass. It is best not to provoke it."
The few of them had just walked into the empty space when they suddenly heard a sword sound. It was like the sound of a zither. It did not stop for a long time. It was like a dream.
When Thousand Mile Reach heard the sword sound, he asked Qin Bai, who was next to him, "Crown Prince, I taught you to listen to the sound of a sword. Can you tell what this sword is made of?"
"It should be metal," Qin Bai said with uncertainty.
"Not bad. It really is a metal sword," Thousand Mile Reach said. "I think it is a bronze sword. Based on the sound of the sword, I think it is around four feet long. The middle of the sword is quite thick. It should be around four centimeters. The angle of the blade is about 30 degrees."
Han Sen was impressed. It was no wonder Thousand Mile Reach was the teacher of the Qin Kingdom. Listening to the sword was something Han Sen could do, but that was only if he used the Dongxuan Sutra.
He was in Soldier Weapon Sky. There were no rules of the universe restricting him. Han Sen could cast the Dongxuan Sutra easily. He did not have to use his ears to listen.
Qin Bai could not wait to see if Thousand Mile Reach's guess was correct or not. He sped up in the direction of the sword's cry.
To a human who had combined with a god-class gene race, a dozen paths was nothing. Qin Bai quickly saw the old bronze sword that had an inch of lovesick and an inch of grey on it.
"Thousand Mile Reach is so good," Qin Bai said with shock. "It is just as you said."
"Practice makes perfect," Thousand Mile Reach said. "Mister Crown Prince, you just need to listen, watch, and think. You will be able to do it quickly."
Jia Shi Zhen noticed Jian Bu Gu had not followed them. She was shocked as she asked, "Why is Mister Jian not following?"
"I think he is afraid of trouble."
Han Sen knew Jian Bu Gu had not followed them. He guessed why Jian Bu Gu had not come.
Qin Bai did not care about that. He looked at the old bronze sword and said, "Thousand Mile Reach, based on the sword skills you have taught me, this sword looks very normal. It is just an old bronze sword used for decoration. It looks very powerful, but it does not have much practical value. Is this really a unique sword?"
Thousand Mile Reach said, "The art of looking at swords is very deep and profound. You can't just look at it from the outside. Once you reach a certain level, you can look at the spirit of the sword. Although this sword looks very normal, there is a scary spirit inside."
Qin Bai nodded. He looked forward to it and asked, "In that case, according to what Thousand Mile Reach thinks, does the will of this sword match with my will?"
"Mister Crown Prince, you are the future leader of a kingdom," Thousand Mile Reach said. "You have a unique will. Ordinary swords are not good enough for you."
Qin Bai's will was too weak. There were not many weapons that matched him. It was not easy for Han Sen to pick one out. It would be difficult for him to find a second one. Plus, it was such a powerful sword. The chances of it agreeing with Qin Bai were even lower.
Thousand Mile Reach was trying to be subtle, but Qin Bai was not stupid. He knew what he meant. He looked disappointed.
"Thousand Mile Reach, do you match with this sword?" Qin Bai asked.
"About that, I am afraid I will have to try to find out," Thousand Mile Reach said. "Even Mister Sword was unable to claim such a godly sword. I do not think I will be lucky enough to claim it."
Thousand Mile Reach said that, but he still had hope in his heart. What if he and the sword were meant to be?
That was a sword that Jian Bu Gu could not claim. If he could claim it, the glory would be unimaginable.
"If things are like that, why don't you give it a try, Thousand Mile Reach?" Qin Bai could not claim the sword, but he wanted to see what was so special about it.
"Mister Han, you should go first," Thousand Mile Reach humbly said.
When Han Sen heard him say that, he knew he was tempted. He laughed and said, "Thousand Mile Reach, please go first. I do not usually use swords."
Thousand Mile Reach let Jia Shi Zhen go first. Jia Shi Zhen did not mind. Thousand Mile Reach walked over to the sword.
Although it was risky to be the first to claim the sword, Jian Bu Gu said it would not be life-threatening. Jian Bu Gu was not the kind of person who would lie. Thus, Thousand Mile Reach was not worried.
"If I really get the approval of this sword …" Thousand Mile Reach's old face turned red. He was very excited.
Although he was excited, Thousand Mile Reach was a smart old man. He did not dare be careless. He summoned four gene races to combine with. Then, he reached for the hilt of the sword.
Thousand Mile Reach's body was glowing with a god light. It was like the light of the sun and the moon. When he grabbed the hilt, he tried to pull it up.
Han Sen and the others opened their eyes wide. They wanted to see what was going to happen. The weird thing was, nothing happened.
Not only did nothing happen, but Thousand Mile Reach let go of the hilt. The gene races on his body stopped combining. He returned to normal. He turned around and looked at Han Sen and the others.
