Chapter 42: Silver Blood Divine Steel

  ♂?,,

  "Argent Bloodsteel?"

  Wang Ting was hesitating in her heart and couldn't make up her mind.

  "Is the teacher also interested in this ore?"

  Upon seeing Wang Ting holding the ore, Zhou Guangming suddenly became interested: "This piece of ore in front of us, I spent a lot of money to buy it. This ore is not only extremely hard, but so far I haven't found a sword that can destroy it, and it still looks perfect, like a beautiful work of art..."

  "No need for useless introductions, can't you tell where it's from?"

  "Uh..."

  One sentence made Zhou Guangming somewhat at a loss for how to respond.

  This piece of ore, he really didn't know its origin.

  "Argent Bloodsteel in our world, although it had a fatal flaw, but in this world..."

  After a moment of silence, Wang Ting finally spoke up and said, "Name a price."

  "Of course, Mr. Swordsman needs it, and we should naturally offer the most favorable price. However, please understand that this ore, although we can't identify its origin, has a solidity that is unparalleled to date, which is enough to prove its value from the side. Moreover, even if it can't be used for forging weapons, just buying it for appreciation is also an amazing work of art..."

  "Price!"

  Wang Ting repeated a sentence.

  "One thousand gold coins!"

  Zhou Guangming stretched out one finger: "One thousand gold coins, this ore is absolutely worth this price."

  Too high.

  "Sir, this price is indeed not high. This type of ore is a new variety, and even with our company's vast database, there are no records of such an ore. It's valuable because it's rare, and nobody knows what its use is, right?"

  As they spoke, Zhou Guangming's gaze had already fallen on Wang Ting's face, seemingly wanting to see something from his expression changes, and thus indirectly judge its true value.

  Wang Ting looked at Zhou Guangming and said, "One thousand gold coins, this price is enough to buy a small courtyard in the capital. I really know what kind of ore this is, and I also know that it has a fatal flaw. Moreover, I understand that we have no way to smelt this piece of ore, even if we bring it back, the best result is that it will become an art piece for appreciation. It can be said that this investment is a failure. Now I offer 500 gold coins, you can consider whether to sell it to me, or you can take it back and store it in the warehouse."

  "Five hundred gold coins."

  Zhou Guangming's brain quickly calculated.

  After a while, he raised his head again.

  "Six hundred gold coins, and we'll consider our friendship with Zhou Guangming settled!"

  "Deal."

  Wang Ting nodded and glanced at the instrument beside him: "Transfer it."

  Seeing Wang Ting's prompt response, Zhou Guangming was slightly stunned, but in the end, he still activated the device with a bitter smile and chose to transfer money to Wang Ting.

  In fact, when he obtained this ore, he also carefully studied it and even invited several old ironworkers from Akatsuki Town to study it specially. Unfortunately, no results were achieved, and even in the fierce fire, it did not show any signs of melting.

  In addition, he bought this ore for only forty gold coins and made a profit of fifteen times. Considering that he could make friends with a young swordsman with great potential through this ore, this deal was not a loss at all, the difference was just how much he gained.

  Just as the young man said, this ore in their hands would at best be used as a work of art for appreciation, and it's better to sell it directly for 600 gold coins.

  After the transaction was successful, Wang Ting nodded and was about to leave.

  Seeing this, Zhou Guangming hastily inquired: "Sir, I wonder if you can inform me, what is the use of this piece of ore?"

  Wang Ting glanced at this middle-aged man and shook his head slightly: "It's no use telling you."

  After finishing speaking, he didn't stay any longer and directly walked out of this room.

  After parting with Zhou Guangming and others, Wang Ting did not leave for the time being, but instead opened a superior room in the hotel to stay.

  Calculating the time, there are only twenty-odd days left until the three-month duel deadline set with Li Mu. Next, he should return to the Xuanzhong Advanced Swordsman Academy.

  "The strength of a mid-tier swordsman can handle most difficulties and also enter the core of the Xuanzhong Advanced Swordsman Academy."

  Wang Ting muttered to himself, sat down at the desk under the skylight, reached out and took out the Silver Blood Divine Steel that had cost 500 gold coins, his eyes fixed on it, motionless.

  Under his gaze, the Tianmo Quanshen Technique started to operate silently, and the spiritual power of the 6th-stage Spiritual Master began to churn in the spiritual world, gradually seeping out of his body and directly infusing into the silver blood divine steel on his hands.

  As he infused his spiritual energy, this silver blood divine steel that was originally so solid that even knives and swords couldn't damage it actually started to soften gradually. Wang Ting slightly exerted some force and pinched it, and unexpectedly managed to pinch the mineral into a somewhat deformed shape, as if what he held in his hand wasn't an extremely hard steel, but rather a lump of children's play dough.

  A moment later, he came back to himself.

  And this piece of ore also recovered as before in less than a few breaths after his spirit was recalled, and it changed back to its original appearance.

  "Indeed, it's Argentum."

  Wang Ting said with a smile.

  There is no great surprise in tone either.

  Argent Bloodsteel was a special species discovered on a mineral star many years ago, causing a sensation when it first appeared.

  This divine steel cannot be damaged by ordinary external forces, and even the flames on the surface of a star cannot burn it. However, it can be activated by spiritual power stimulation, making it become a liquid like mercury. After special tuning, a gene medicine is produced with blood as a guide, which is then merged into the body's cells.

  Once fusion is successful, they will be transformed into a semi-mechanical and semi-biological being, greatly enhancing the strength and recovery of their body, making them resistant to sword and knife injuries, almost indestructible.

  At that time, this divine steel was the treasure of spiritual energy holders. In the few days after its debut, it shook the entire spiritual energy world. Spiritual energy holders relying on it possessed unparalleled terrifying combat capabilities. Some people even predicted that the emergence of this silver-blooded divine steel would drive the progress of history and replace mechanical armor as the supreme ruler in the world, becoming a new type of strategic weapon.

  However, this excitement was short-lived, as people soon discovered that this divine steel had a fatal flaw - low temperature.

  At low temperatures, Argentum is easily solidified. To deal with a Spirit Wielder who has merged with Argentum, one only needs to prepare some low-temperature gas jets and spray them on, which can easily solidify it and kill it in one move. Due to this fatal flaw, many cultivators who thought that the arrival of spring had come for Spirit Wielders were disappointed and gave up on this divine steel, re-investing in their training as Mechanized Knights instead.

  Although Wang Ting had no intention of transforming himself into a mechanical bio-person, seeing this mineral that was only produced in that world still moved his thoughts, and he bought it.

  Maybe...

  Will be useful later on.
