Chapter 495 - 491: Visiting Guo Liang (Part 2)
"Mr. Guo, I have to be honest, ever since you mentioned this to me last time, I’ve repeatedly studied the Tianling Blade but didn’t find anything. Additionally, I’ve scanned it with instruments, and there’s nothing inside the blade either."
"I’m not clear on that," Guo Liang said. "The one thing I am sure of is that there’s definitely a secret hidden within the Tianling Blade. As for where they’ve concealed it, that remains unknown. Ling Chen, the wisdom of the ancients far exceeds our imagination, you can’t use common logic to speculate on their thinking."
At this point, Guo Liang stood up and said, "Come, let me take you on a tour."
Leaving the hall, Ling Chen and Nanrong Wanqing followed Guo Liang into a room next door locked with a large padlock.
As they entered, Ling Chen saw the room neatly arranged with more than ten kinds of tools: Furnaces, bellows, large anvils, and many hammers of various sizes—all the forging tools needed in ancient times for ironworking were there.
"These tools are all inherited from the Guo Family ancestors; they’ve been here for hundreds of years, always kept dust-covered in this place. That Tianling Blade was forged with these tools," introduced Guo Liang.
Ling Chen asked with interest, "Mr. Guo, may I take a look around?"
"Of course, no problem."
With Guo Liang’s permission, Ling Chen walked around the room, looking here and there, occasionally touching things with his hands. Suddenly, he noticed in the corner of the room, there was a pile of rusty scrap iron sheets. These sheets were not ordinary, each one incredibly thin and etched with different shapes and lines, looking quite bizarre.
"Mr. Guo, what are these used for?" Ling Chen asked.
