Chapter 39
On the silver-covered land, a dusty caravan is heading towards the capital of the Kingdom of Iron.
"It turns out that you are the Chamber of Commerce of Takeo City."
On the carriage, Shen Yu was sitting upright in the corner, talking to the middle-aged man next to him.
"Huh? Haven't you heard the name of our 'Forging Knife Studio'?"The middle-aged man looked surprised.
"Sorry, maybe the place where I was born is too remote.……"Shen Yu scratched his head and smiled naively,"Is it too late to understand now?"
"All right. The middle-aged man nodded,"Since you are going to live in the capital in the future, it won't do you any harm to know this.""
His face was filled with a proud smile,"'Knife Forging Studio' is the largest chamber of commerce in the entire Iron Country, and it is also the best swordsmith in the world!"
Next, the middle-aged man began to talk.
The Kingdom of Iron is a relatively special country for the ninja world. This country has no ninja villages, let alone ninjas. Instead, it has its own lineage and has derived The profession of"samurai". Because of this, the Iron Country became a neutral country. The ninjas made an agreement long ago not to take action against this country. In the original time and space, the Iron Country even avoided several ninja wars.
Most of them are swordsmen. Different from ninjas, they will concentrate the refined chakra on the sword and turn it into sharp sword energy for chopping. Combined with their superb sword skills, when it comes to individual combat capabilities, they are not the best. How much worse than a ninja.
Shen Yu nodded frequently. The warriors of the Iron Country were of their own kind, and Madara also spoke highly of their unique sword skills, which to some extent determined the quality of their swords. The strength of a warrior.
Therefore, the profession of swordsmith was born.
The inheritance of swordsmanship has spawned countless schools, and this is especially true for swordsmithing. If a worker wants to do his job well, he must first sharpen his weapon. In the long history, Among them, countless famous swordsmen have emerged. The influence of these people in the ninja world is not worth mentioning, but they have a pivotal position in the Kingdom of Iron.
After thousands of years of accumulation, they finally gathered the essence of the times and gathered hundreds of schools of thought. There are only three swordsmith families left, namely the Oikawa family's"Hakujuden", the Sugawara family's"Yuryuden", and the Niwa family's"Isshinden".
They have a long history of craftsmanship and have produced countless famous swords. , are all important weapons of the country, collectively known as the"Three Legends of Iron".
A hundred years ago, in order to adapt to the changes of the times, the three families jointly formed the Chamber of Commerce. Since then, the three top branches of the sword forging schools have merged into one,"Knife Forging". Thus was born.
As a chamber of commerce that accommodates the top swordsmiths, the"Forging Knife Zhai" monopolized the entire iron country's knife forging business in less than ten years, starting from the customization and manufacturing of sabers, to craftsmanship, Delivery is a complete"one-stop" service. As long as there is demand within the Iron Country, it can basically be delivered to your door.
Now this caravan has just completed the delivery task and is returning to the capital without stopping.
What? He asked casually:"Uncle, since the 'Forging Sword House' is so famous, why did the entire caravan hire two samurai? Ordinarily, for a caravan of this size, hiring 10 samurai is not too much, right?"
"Not because……"The middle-aged man was suddenly stunned and said hesitantly:"Well...this matter……"
He sighed,"Hey, if it weren't for...our 'Forging Sword Studio' would be glorious for another hundred years without any problem, why would we need to rely on the powerful?"
Shen Yu's eyes moved,"Is there something unexpected in this?"
The middle-aged man His mood dropped visibly, and he was no longer interested in talking. He waved his hand and said with a bitter look on his face:"That's all, I'm feeling depressed, and I'm going to get out of the car and go for a walk. Little brother, it's a long way home, so you'd better maintain your strength and rest first. Rest."
After that, he turned around and opened the car curtain, and left with a heavy heart.
Shen Yu blinked his eyes and did not feel disappointed. His passion for gossip had not reached that level yet, and besides, people had already chatted with him enough along the way.
The"Knife Forging Studio" and the"Three Legends of Iron" are just chatting to relieve boredom for him.
Shen Yu simply crossed his legs, closed his eyes and concentrated, and started practicing.
Soon, his chakra began to mobilize, and every cell was like a spring river thawing. Intoxicating power flowed in the body. The gentle and huge chakra grew from the cells, gurgled and gathered, and wandered in the meridians.
His chakra is like a clear spring, flowing through the Lingxu and the Divine Seal, and is separated from the body into two streams. One stream flows from the dovetail and giant tower below into the Dantian Qi sea, while the other stream flows upward and is completely gone. In the Yintang Hall between the eyebrows, along a specific route, the next cycle begins, over and over again.
Refining chakra is a practice he performs every day and has not been interrupted for twelve years. The purpose is to open up the meridians, enhance the chakra reserves, and move forward step by step towards the ambitious goal of"Chatara".
It's amazing to say that since he adapted to the deep sea and was re-optimized into the"Poseidon Body", his physical fitness has also increased exponentially. This is not only reflected in his powerful strength, speed and defense, his chakra amount, It also increased sharply.
The appearance doesn't seem to have changed at all, except that the skin is more crystal clear and delicate, but there is an ancient ferocious beast hidden inside.
If chakra was like a trickle in the past, with an endless stream, then now it is like a rushing river, mighty and mighty.
After Shen Yu thought for a moment, he understood the reason.
Chakra is a perfect 1:1 fusion of spiritual energy and physical energy. The combination of yin and yang evolves into all things.
As a descendant of Indra, the owner of the Mangekyou Sharingan of the Uchiha clan, his Yin escape is already extremely strong, not to mention that he has also practiced the"Spiritual Transformation Technique", which has caused a qualitative change in the soul and greatly increased his spiritual power. Enhancement, in comparison, the less outstanding body energy determines the upper limit of chakra amount.
This is like a barrel filled with water. The shortest piece of wood directly determines the amount of water it can hold.
Now, his physical body has fully increased, and the corresponding physical energy has soared. The huge spiritual energy has an object to fuse with, and the last piece of wood is assembled, and the amount of chakra has naturally increased.
It is worth mentioning that when Shenyu concentrates on refining chakra, his form and spirit are unified, and his aura is completely restrained. As long as he is not a sensing ninja, he will not be able to detect his aura at all.
For Shen Yu, who was immersed in cultivation, time flew by quickly, and it was night before he knew it.
The snow had stopped, but the midnight wind was even more biting. The cold wind was cutting at the skin like a knife. The middle-aged man couldn't bear it and returned to the car early. Only two warriors were left outside the car in the long caravan.
When the middle-aged man saw Shen Yu resting in the corner with his eyes closed and breathing evenly, he thought he was asleep, so he didn't disturb him anymore.
