Awakening The Gluttony Talent: I Become Stronger By Eating



86 Dragon Blood Battle Blade

Outside the blacksmith,

Lu Yu and the others were locked out.

Seeing this, Chu Shiyu looked at Lu Yu apologetically and explained, “My Uncle Qinglin’s temperament is like this. No one is allowed to watch him at work during the forging process. He’s afraid that the technology and skills will be leaked, and also worried that other people’s presence will affect his progress.”

“It’s fine.” Lu Yu shook his head. He did not mind at all.

Lu Yu was already extremely grateful that this guy was able to create an S-class weapon, so he naturally didn’t care about these trivial matters.

Song Yu, who was standing at the side, explained with a smile, “Lu Yu, your luck is very good this time. The Chu family is one of the four great families, an existence on the same level as our Song family. The Chu family is the best at blacksmithing among the four great families. In fact, the Chu family’s blacksmithing skills are said to be among the top three in the entire Federation. As for Chu Qinglin, he was a very well-known personality from the Chu family back then. He was said to be a genius blacksmith with unparalleled forging skills. However, later on, for some unknown reason, he left the Chu family and chose to retire. Otherwise, he would definitely be the number one blacksmith in the Chu family now. To be able to get a person like Chu Qinglin to help you produce a weapon, your luck is already very good. On top of that, you still have a precious treasure like the Dragon Blood Crystal that can be made into an S-class weapon directly.”

“Yeah, my luck is indeed good.” Lu Yu nodded in agreement.

Not everyone could make an S-class weapon. It was not something that ordinary blacksmiths were capable of

Even with sufficient materials, it was impossible for most blacksmiths to succeed in such a task.

Only an extremely gifted legendary blacksmith like Chu Qinglin could create an S-class weapon.

When Lu Yu learned about all these things, he was also quite surprised.

No doubt Lu Yu had heard of the Chu family. They were very well-known throughout the entire Federation.

What surprised Lu Yu was that this Chu Shiyu was actually a member of the Chu family. Moreover, her status seemed to be very extraordinary, so much so that she could convince someone like Chu Qinglin to spend so much effort to produce an S-class weapon for someone he was totally unacquainted with.

At this moment, there were already the sounds of hammering coming from the blacksmith shop. Clearly, Chu Qinglin had already completed his preparations and the blacksmithing process was in full swing.

The sound of hammering alternated between rapid and slow speeds, as if there was some rhythm in it. It could be described as wonderful. He was indeed a top-notch blacksmith.

Thereafter, Lu Yu and the others began waiting patiently outside the door through the whole night.

The hammering in the blacksmith’s shop never once stopped.

Simply forging an ordinary weapon already required thousands of strikes.

The amount of hammering work an SS-class weapon required would be unimaginable. It would likely require countless strikes, and possibly even profound, mystical skills before it could be successfully crafted.

It wasn’t until dawn that the hammering gradually stopped.

At this moment, Lu Yu and the others were already snoozing by the side of the road. The wait had been too long.

The door was suddenly flung open. Lu Yu and the others woke up when they heard the commotion.

They saw Chu Qinglin walking out with a saber in his hand.

The blade looked dull and seemed rather ordinary.

However, upon closer inspection, one would discover that the lights in the room were not reflected on its surface at all. It seemed incredibly magical.

And the Dragon Blood Crystal was embedded in the hilt.

From the Dragon Blood Crystal, delicate motifs extended from there to various parts of the blade.

Lu Yu and the others could tell that this saber was really exceptional.

“The weapon has been completed. Take a look for yourself,” Chu Qinglin said as he tossed the saber to Lu Yu.

Lu Yu hurriedly intercepted it. The moment he touched it, it felt unbelievably heavy.

It resembled an ordinary saber that weighed at most a few dozen kilograms.

Yet, once in his hand, it weighed a thousand catties.

Thankfully Lu Yu’s strength had reached the level of a Great Grand Master. Otherwise, it would be impossible for him to catch this saber so easily.

Watching from the opposite side, when Chu Qinglin saw that Lu Yu’s hand sank slightly after receiving it but then instantly handled it easily after that, he also nodded with approval inwardly.

It seemed that Lu Yu, standing before him, was indeed quite strong and had the ability to release the potential of this saber.

At this moment, Lu Yu’s gaze was completely focused on the saber in front of him as he carefully examined it.

The saber appeared very ordinary at first glance. Now, on closer scrutiny, Lu Yu discovered the exquisite motifs which connected to the Dragon Blood Crystal. These motifs then extended to every inch of the blade.

Lu Yu tried swinging it and found that he could wield it even more easily than previous weapons. Every swing was bursting with overwhelming power.

By his side, when Chu Shiyu saw this, she was also very happy. She then asked, “Uncle Qinglin, what is this saber called? Does it have any special abilities?”

When Chu Qinglin heard her query, he replied directly, “I named it the Dragon Blood Battle Saber. It has already reached S+-class. As for its special effects, they are quite simple. Apart from the incredible power it possesses, when it is injected with health vitality during battle, the dragon blood essence in the Dragon Blood Crystal will be stimulated. The dragon blood can then spread to every part of the blade through the motifs and erupt with overwhelming power. Just how formidable it is, you can only know when it is put to actual use.”

“Dragon Blood Battle Saber? Not bad!”

As Lu Yu nodded his head, he also circulated his energy to inject his health vitality into that saber.

Immediately, the blood essence from the Dragon Blood Crystal flooded through the motifs that covered the whole blade, a stark contrast from its earlier dull, lifeless appearance a while ago.

The entire Dragon Blood Battle Saber then radiated with a blood-red light that was incomparably dazzling.

Lu Yu could feel the tremendous power emanating from it.

Lu Yu was pleasantly surprised. Was this the power of an S+-class saber? It was absolutely frightening.

Although Lu Yu had yet to use the Dragon Blood Battle Saber in a real battle, he felt that if he were to use it, his strength might very well increase by at least 30% or even more!

How absolutely amazing it was that this saber could increase a Great Grand Master’s combat strength by 30%!

At this point. Lu Yu had also withdrawn his health vitality. The dragon tribe’s blood essence that had swept out to cover the whole blade immediately returned to the Dragon Blood Crystal, and the entire Dragon Blood Battle Blade reverted to its dull, lifeless state.

After observing this, Chu Qinglin then explained, “The blood essence of the dragon tribe won’t be consumed, so the power in the Dragon Blood Crystal won’t be lost. On the contrary, during continuous battles, you can constantly accumulate high-grade blood essence and continuously nurture the dragon tribe’s blood essence within. This process does not just maintain its original strength, but it can also allow the gem to advance in strength. This way, if there’s a suitable opportunity in the future, you can take down the Dragon Blood Crystal and use it to make an even more powerful weapon!”

Lu Yu couldn’t help but sing his praises. “Wonderful, truly wonderful!”

Such blacksmithing skills were truly astonishing.

Not only was this guy able to forge such high-grade weapons, but he could also do it in such a way as to retain the power of the Dragon Blood Crystal. It wouldn’t lose the power of the original treasure steadily with every use, unlike other weapons.

Not only was the power in the Dragon Blood Crystal not lost with usage, but it could also absorb blood essence to nourish itself during battle. There might even be a chance to elevate the gem’s grade.

This way, when there was a chance later on, after Lu Yu had gathered enough rare materials, he would have a chance to forge an even more powerful SS-class weapon using this Dragon Blood Crystal once again.

As Lu Yu spoke, he also noticed Chu Qinglin’s condition.

Previously, although Chu Qinglin was a sloppy middle-aged man, his eyes were bright and he was extremely energetic.

However, at this moment, Chu Qinglin’s eyes were listless and exhaustion was written all over his face.

Clearly, Chu Qinglin had also expended a large amount of vitality to forge this S+-class Dragon Blood Battle Saber.
