From Abyssal Invasion to Bursting Stars with a Single Sword

In the Gem Workshop.

Su Muyu sat in front of the workbench, pinching a gemstone with her left hand and holding an Engraving Pen in her right, intently engraving a Rune Circuit.

However, one thing was very strange.

She was engraving with her eyes closed.

Yes, both of her eyes were shut, which was quite peculiar.

Behind her, a Chongming Bird stood there, its crimson energy feathers lightly fluttering, equally focused and motionless.

Lu Heng saw her and immediately understood what was happening.

Her Initial Talent was "Summoned Creature Vision," which meant she shared the vision of the Chongming Bird, and their sight was the same.

Moreover, the Chongming Bird's vision was even stronger.

In front of the Chongming Bird, there was also a specialized micro-carving eyepiece.

The function of the eyepiece was to magnify the vision, and together with the Chongming Bird's originally strong sight, it could see even the smallest lines on the surface of the gemstone very clearly.

The art of an Engraver was somewhat similar to a human's original skill, which was micro-carving.

It involved carving the surface of the gemstone with as much detail as possible, ensuring a complete Rune Circuit is maintained.

This process was very challenging.

It demanded high perception from the Engraver.

Additionally, the Rune Circuit engraved on the entire gemstone was extremely complex; a minor mistake could ruin the whole gemstone.

At first, Su Muyu had a high failure rate, but as her skills improved with practice, she gradually got better.

Lu Heng knew Engravers well and was aware that one must absolutely not disturb them during the engraving of Rune Circuits.

So Lu Heng stood quietly at the entrance, watching the profile of her face.

It felt so familiar; Su Muyu was an Engraver in his past life too, but she didn't become one at this point in time. It was half a year later.

Indeed, she had a Talent for this Vice Profession of Engraving and could sit quietly for an entire day.

While Lu Heng leaned against the doorframe, waiting quietly,

Master Gulu suddenly ran over, excitedly saying, "Miss Su, you should let Lu Heng show you the Aurora Blade. We've forged a Divine Weapon."

After shouting that, he turned and ran out, telling everyone he met that he had forged an level S Divine Weapon.

He completely lost the longing and steadiness he'd shown earlier in the Inheritance Room.

Lu Heng thought that Su Muyu would be startled, causing the gemstone in her hand to be ruined.

Instead, she gently retracted the Engraving Pen, placed the gemstone back in the box, picked up a ballpoint pen, and marked the engraving blueprint, preparing to continue later.

After tidying up, she stood up and cast a glance at Lu Heng, asking, "Why didn't you speak, standing behind me for so long?"

"I was afraid to disturb you," Lu Heng spread his hands.

"I saw you ages ago." Su Muyu had the Chongming Bird's Detection Ability, so every move around her was under her surveillance.

Even Master Gulu's excited running had not escaped her notice.

She pursed her lips in a smile and asked, "Didn't you forge an level S weapon? Why not take it out and have a look?"

Lu Heng flipped his palm to present the Aurora Blade, saying, "It turned out better than expected. But I used both Dragon Horns; I had wanted to save one for you guys."

Su Muyu raised an eyebrow and said, "It's already great that you succeeded in forging it. You can't expect to save materials. My weapon isn't urgent."

Comparatively, she placed more importance on gemstones that could enhance attributes.

She glanced over the attributes, and her eyes lit up: "This 'Dragon Breath Slash' is a new ability, right? It's so powerful, almost on par with 'Solar Wind'."

At this moment,

Gulu's voice came from downstairs: "Lu Heng, come down quickly and test the sword's power. I've gathered everyone."

When Lu Heng looked out in front of Quenching Castle, good heavens, Gulu had called everyone from inside Quenching Castle.

Quenching Masters who had access to Quenching Castle were mostly there.

Gao Yuankui, Yuan Hecheng, and even Yuan Hecheng's daughter, Yuan Yaoyao, happened to be there today; all had been summoned by Gulu.

As the Lion Heart Empire had unveiled a second Quenching Furnace, Quenching Castle's furnace was no longer unique.

In order to boost Quenching Castle's competitiveness, Lu Heng had the Flame Emblem Club expand the recruitment of Quenching Masters, so now the number of Quenching Masters at Quenching Castle had exceeded twenty.

These people, aside from eating and sleeping, spent almost all their time in Quenching Castle.

Now they had all been called by Gulu to the front courtyard, waiting to witness Lu Heng test the sword.

When Lin Zeyu heard the news, he also rushed back from outside, full of excitement.

"How is it? How is it? Has it started? Is it really level S?"

Gulu began directing everyone's position: "Move back, move back, don't cross this line, or you might get hurt."

The people there exchanged glances because they had already retreated to the hallway.

The front courtyard of Quenching Castle was quite large, having four to five hundred square meters, but according to Gulu, standing so far away was still dangerous.

After sending everyone to the hallway, Gulu gestured to Lu Heng: "All right, come over and give it a try. Aim at that stone figure over there."

In the front courtyard of the castle stood a figure made of stone blocks, with a sword even inserted into it.

Lu Heng was unsure of just how powerful the Dragon Breath Slash could be, so he threw a look at Su Muyu, signaling her to be ready with a Defense Skill when the time came.

Understanding his cue, Su Muyu nodded and positioned herself in front of everyone.

Lu Heng took three steps forward, raised the Aurora Blade high, took a deep breath, and with a loud shout, he unleashed a [Dragon Breath Slash].

Roar!

The phantom of a Purgatory Sub-Dragon emerged behind Lu Heng, letting out an earth-shattering roar.

A stream of Dragon Breath fire erupted from the blade, forming a sweeping sword glow that slashed across.
