Chapter 1850: As Medicinal Herbs for Sword Cultivation

Meng Guangbai returned with a thousand questions and immediately poured a cup of water for Luo Fu.

Zhang Bufan glanced at him from the side and gave him a signal, but Meng Guangbai acted as if he hadn't seen it, sitting right beside Luo Fu and peppering him with questions.

"Big Brother Luo, there's something I don't understand—could you give me some guidance?"

"Speak."

Watching Meng Guangbai's groveling behavior, Zhang Bufan couldn't help feeling embarrassed.

Meng Guangbai didn't care about that—he said, "Why would Big Brother Luo trade ten thousand gold coins for black scales?"

"Those are just ordinary black scales—even if that little black snake is a three-eyed supreme spirit serpent, that doesn't mean its shed scales have any use, right?"

Gong Sun Huohuo also wanted to ask.

This time, Meng Guangbai asked for him—he naturally wanted to know the answer himself.

But some things couldn't be explained at once, so he wisely waited beside Luo Fu for his reply.

After drinking a sip of water, Luo Fu said, "Have you heard of supreme spirit serpents?"

Everyone nodded.

"Have you heard of black armor scales?"

Everyone in the room shook their heads.

"Black armor scales are the scales shed by a three-eyed supreme spirit serpent every three days. It sheds for ten years total—all scales shed within that decade, if slightly refined, can form a sturdy armor."

"This little black snake has already shed for five years—do you think that armor could be used?"

Meng Guangbai had a feeling Luo Fu wanted more than just that armor.

Gong Sun Huohuo said, "I once heard other elders in the sect mention that some scales can serve as medicinal ingredients for sword cultivation."

"Correct."

"Only for swords?" Zhang Bufan asked.

"Of course not—any weapon can be forged with them, but they must be used as the essential catalyst."

Gong Sun Huohuo knew more because she was from the Profound Heaven Sect, which is why she could answer.

Luo Fu nodded.

The materials Long Feixue brought him could last him a long time—even if he failed, the black armor scales could make up for it.

He only feared that Long Feixue might wake up and refuse to hand over the black armor scales.

"If Long Feixue finds out these shed scales from the little black snake have such powerful abilities, will she change her mind?"
