The Man's Decree

“Master Hammerhead, I have a sword with cracks. Could you please examine it and see if it can be repaired?” As Jared finished
speaking, he reached out his right hand, and the Dragonslayer Sword appeared in his grasp.
In that instant when the Dragonslayer Sword appeared, Hammerhead was stunned. His eyes widened, and he stared fixedly at
the sword in Jared’s hand.
“Dragonslayer Sword?” Hammerhead blurted out after observing it for a while. “Master Hammerhead, how did you know this is
the Dragonslayer Sword?” Jared was surprised.
“Dragonslayer Sword was originally a spiritual sword crafted by Divine Smithing Sect. It was once wielded by our sect leader,
who used it to vanquish three demon kings. However, over time, the sword spirit suffered damage, and the sword eventually
disappeared. I never anticipated that the Dragonslayer Sword would find its way to the mundane world and into your hands. Yet,
the fact that you can command the sword demonstrates your affinity with it,” Hammerhead explained.
Never in a million years did Jared expect the Dragonslayer Sword that had accompanied him through countless battles to be a
spiritual. sword forged by Divine Smithing Sect. The fact that they were able to create a spiritual sword like the Dragonslayer
Sword showcased the formidable power of the sect.
“Master Hammerhead, please take a look at it. The Dragonslayer Sword has developed cracks due to some unknown reason,
and it seems to find me repulsive.” Jared handed the Dragonslayer Sword to Hammerhead.
“This shouldn’t be the case. Even if the sword spirit of the Dragonslayer Sword is damaged, the blade itself is incredibly sturdy
and shouldn’t develop cracks.” Hammerhead retrieved the sword and examined it carefully. Soon, he discovered the root of the
problem.
“The sword spirit of the Dragonslayer Sword seems to have gained strength in your hands. However, as your power continues to
grow, the sword spirit hasn’t kept pace. So when you wield the Dragonslayer Sword, it struggles to withstand the aura you emit.
Furthermore, the Dragonslayer Sword is unable to unleash the full extent of your power in its current state. You have to upgrade
the Dragonslayer Sword once again,” Hammerhead advised Jared.
Upon hearing his words, Jared quickly. understood the situation. He had been too preoccupied with his own power development
and neglected the growth of the Dragonslayer Sword’s sword spirit. His power experienced a sudden surge, so the sword
trembled and emitted a buzzing sound when he infused it with the Power of Dragons as it struggled to withstand his power.

“Master Hammerhead, could you help me repair the Dragonslayer Sword? Or perhaps upgrade: it?” Jared inquired with
eagerness. Hammerhead shook his head. “If it were an ordinary weapon, I could assist with repairs. However, with the
Dragonslayer Sword, given my current abilities, I cannot repair or upgrade it.”
Jared could not help but feel disheartened. “So, am I supposed to watch the Dragonslayer Sword turn into useless scrap?”
“Master Hammerhead, considering the Dragonslayer Sword was forged by your sect, why is it that you are unable to repair it?”
the puzzled Flaxseed asked.
Hammerhead explained, “For spiritual swords like the Dragonslayer Sword, repairing or upgrading them requires more than just
a blacksmith. Without the knowledge of the art of forging, you’re unaware of the intricate procedures involved. Do you think that a
spiritual sword like this can be crafted solely through forging? Have you ever wondered how the sword spirit within it is formed?”
“How is it formed?” Jared and Flaxseed asked in unison. The two of them were filled with strong curiosity, as they possessed
limited knowledge about blacksmithing. In the mundane world and even in secret realms, blacksmiths were scarce.
The divine weapons used by many were often stumbled upon in ancient ruins or discovered as buried treasures rather than
being intentionally crafted.
Therefore, not many people had actively contemplated the process of forging such weapons and the origin of the sword spirits
within them.
