The words "Godslayer Sword" suddenly appeared on the ancient scroll in front of Henry.
Henry picked up the ancient scroll and studied it for a moment. The surface of the ancient scroll was smooth, and it weighed at least a hundred kilograms in his hand, it could be opened, but it was made up of only seven or eight segments, it was unclear what it was made of.
The words on the ancient scroll were very complicated and incomprehensible. With the help of the palace master, only could Henry understand the contents of the ancient scroll.
First of all, the Godslayer Sword was a treasure, but it did not look like a sword, rather it was a gourd, in which the sword was hidden. With the chant of the incantation, the sword would suddenly fly out and take the life of the target.
What was frightening of the Godslayer Sword was that not only were there countless formations for the flying swords, there were also countless formations within the gourd. The swords were normally bred within the gourd's formations, which was why its power was so terrifying.
Now, if Henry were to make the Godslayer Sword his Divine Power, to fully display the power of the Godslayer Sword, Henry had three things to overcome.
The first was to set up a formation. Regarding this point, it was not too difficult for Henry, as he had already grasped the 3,000 Paths, he could learn that pretty quickly.
However, the second was crafting weapons, that was very difficult.
As for the third, which was carving the formation onto their weapons. That was even more difficult.
Just by looking at the contents of the ancient scroll gave Henry had some ideas. There was a formation in the gourd, which could strengthen the sword. Although he did not have the gourd, he had the Divine Shore. The formation could be engraved in the phenomenon of his Divine Shore, which could allow the weapon to be nurtured in the Divine Shore and be unleashed at the crucial moment to be used as the ultimate attack.
Regarding crafting weapons, the palace master provided Henry with some advice.
"Do you know what's the form of those treasures that are able to reach into the heavens and down to the earth?"
Henry thought for a moment. "A sabre, a sword?"
Sabre and sword, The king of all weapons.
"No."
The palace master denied Henry's answer, "Sabres and swords are bladed weapons, therefore they are most lethal, but they can only be used as killing weapons, and not treasures that could connect the heaven and earth. Most of the greatest treasures in this world come in the form of vessels or pagodas. The stupas are larger and easier to carve formations onto, but by the time you are able to engrave complicated formations onto swords and sabres, you won't be needing those treasures any longer."
Upon hearing that, Henry was suddenly enlightened.
A vessel or pagoda! Henry actually had something like those, on his Divine Shore stood a 13-storey black tower. The tower once belonged to the Severity Tribe, which nurtured the Fallen Angel's corpse, it was an extraordinary treasure.
The vessel on the other hand, was still outside of Dragon City. It had been used to kill a late-stage expert of the Divine Shore, and was left there as a reminder to the small fry. Even the palace master was unsure of the vessel's origin, it was able to kill a late- stage expert of the Divine Shore with its weight alone, and even made many holes in the Immortal Palace. It was no ordinary treasure too.
Additionally, during the process of integrating materials, the formation also had to be engraved. However, the shape of the material could undergo change at any time, the formation needed to be drawn according to a regular pattern, if the formation had been engraved onto the shape of the weapon and the weapon ended up slightly differently, the whole formation would be ruined. If the material ended up as scrap, all that had to be done was start over. However, sometimes, when several other formations were merged, unexpected events were bound to happen. There were people who wanted to craft a weapon for offence, but the different patterns of the formation merged, causing the offensive formation to turn into a defensive formation simply due to the material, which did not possess much defensive capabilities, that would be quite an awkward situation.
All in all, the process of that tested one's flexibility and ability to adapt do different situations.
Henry closed his eyes, took a deep breath and began preparing for the project.
This preparation took an entire day. Henry was not in a hurry even if there was not much time left for him, because he knew that he had no space for failure and could only succeed. When he calmed down thoroughly, Henry got to work.
Henry sat in the middle of the Immortal Palace. He waved his arm in front of himself, stirring up a stream of light. Then, a hot flame appeared in front of him, and burned according to the trail of his arm movements.
The flame swept up the bronze vessel in front of Henry. The forging of weapons had begun! To forge a weapons, he had to first determine what he was going to craft. Then, he had to form the shape and engrave the formation onto it in the process of melting it.
Usually, to craft weapons, one needed to melt one material after another and then integrate them together. However, Henry had no other materials, but the bronze vessel. The bronze vessel was a superior treasure on its own, but it was not suitable for Henry. The Godslayer Sword was supposed to be unpredictable, and had to be able to pierce through anything. Obviously, the huge bronze vessel definitely did not seem unpredictable, plus it had such a huge surface area, saying that it could pierce through anything would be a little over the top.
Therefore, the only thing he needed to do was to turn the bronze vessel as small as possible, then integrate and squeeze that originally extraordinary material as much as he could! Pushing down on a huge object would be a process of quantitative change to qualitative change. The process of it would not be easy.
The flame enveloped the bronze vessel. After half an hour, the bronze vessel still did not show any changes.
