Chapter 58: Terrifying

The patterns on the golden foil shone brightly under the light, like a swimming snake. Through various angles of refraction, the patterns presented were different.

It was a little like the Water Margin cards he played when he was young.

“There definitely wasn’t any before. Could it be that it only appeared after it was cut and polished?”

Su Yun muttered to himself in confusion.

Through the light, he saw a strange pattern on the gold foil. It was very abstract, but when he looked carefully, it was quite exquisite.

This beautiful and complicated pattern piqued Su Yun’s interest. It was a little like a messy pattern, but also like a rough map.

Su Yun could not figure it out after looking at it for a long time.

However, Su Yun was very sure that when he first returned yesterday, he had also sized up the gold foil under the light and sunlight. He did not see such patterns. All of this had come out after cutting and polishing.

After observing for a while, when his gaze was at the same angle as the golden foil, he realized that there were four symbols hidden in the patterns. Su Yun could not recognize them all, but he suspected that they were in small seal script. He used his phone to check again, but there was no result. It seemed that they were still rare words from ancient times.

However, the third word was very vivid. At a glance, it could be seen as ‘gold.’

“High-purity gold nuggets?”

Su Yun joked. It was obvious that he was making things up, but he suddenly thought of something and was shocked.

“Could it be an antique…”

For a moment, Su Yun was a little confused as he looked at the four characters in small seal script. However, in the end, he shook his head firmly and dismissed this thought.

The reason was that the material was too hard, far surpassing the hardness and flexibility of the pinnacle of ancient smelting skills, Damascus Iron.

In the classic novel Water Margin, the name Damascus Iron appeared frequently.

For example, the last weapons Wu Song used were two “Snowflake Steel Buddhist Commandment Blades”. According to the novel, these two blades were “made of wrought iron, not a day’s work”. In the middle of the night, they would whistle on their own and carry spiritual treasure sabers.

In addition to weapons, some important characters in the novel also had equipment such as blue frost steel helmets and chain steel armor.

From this, it could be seen that the wrought iron used to forge treasure sabers and Buddhist staffs was also a good item to make divine weapons and armor in the eyes of the author of Water Margin.

As everyone knew, the strongest item in ancient times recognized by the historians and archeologists was Damascus Iron!

There was no other!

In modern terms, it was called: high-carbon steel.

Therefore, Su Yun denied that this was the reason why it was an antique. This was because the gold foil was definitely not wrought iron, but it was something special!

And this kind of thing could only be synthesized and forged with modern technology. It should not be an ancient product.

Moreover, one could not tell how old the antique was. It all showed that the material was so special that it looked like a modern synthetic product.

“If ancient times could create such a hard material, I’m afraid we’ll have to rewrite history. It’s enough to shock the world.”

“I suppose it’s just an ordinary pattern that was processed to look good, right?”

Su Yun was more or less still a little lucky to have picked up an unexpected fortune.

Just like most people who picked up an abandoned porcelain bowl in the wilderness, they would fantasize that it was an ancient porcelain that was worth hundreds of thousands.

Su Yun did not get rid of this thought.

However, when he relaxed, he no longer felt this sense of loss.

“I’ve already cut it. There’s nothing I can do even if it’s an antique. Compared to an antique, my life is more important…’

Su Yun sighed in his heart. He was still brooding over the palpitations on his back. He had a feeling that the criminals would not let him off easily.

As he played with the remaining golden card in his hand, he could not help but want to test the power of this card.

Only by knowing oneself and one’s enemy could one deal with it calmly.

In the end, Su Yun tiptoed out of the room and came to the courtyard.

At this moment, the bright moon outside the house was especially dazzling. The night sky was quiet and far-reaching. When he heard the insects around him croaking, he felt exceptionally comfortable.

Due to the fact that it was already late, the old people who were enjoying the shade outside had already returned home one after another.

“I’m leaving here tomorrow. To be honest, I quite like the slow pace of life here.”

As he was thinking about something, Su Yun had already walked to the path at the entrance of the courtyard under the moonlight.

“A paper poker card can cut open a pine tree under the Wave Breaking Technique. I wonder how powerful this golden card can be?”

At the thought of this, Su Yun was a little excited.

Then, he chose an isolated locust tree by the roadside. Its trunk was the size of an adult’s waist and was at least a few decades old.

Su Yun decided to test the power of the golden card on this tree.

Another reason was that the surroundings were relatively open. At the very least, there was a chance of finding the golden card after it flew out.

If he really went into the forest to experiment, it would probably only be a one-time use item.

Of course, Su Yun had also thought about it. There was only one gold foil card.

It seemed very inconvenient to pick it up every time he used it.

But then he remembered that these things were all trump cards. They were usually not used easily, but if they were used, it would be at the last moment. It would definitely be a one-hit kill.

Therefore, one card was enough.

Moreover, just like how Zhang Wuji needed a divine weapon, between an ordinary iron sword and a Heavenly Sword, the divine weapon would naturally be better.

Which expert didn’t want to wear a divine weapon? Which hero didn’t want their intrinsic weapon to be impressive?

Moreover, it was too late to customize iron pieces at the last minute. When he returned, he could think of a way to make some suitable iron pieces as backup…

Soon, Su Yun stood ten meters away from the locust tree. He held the gold foil card in his hand and was not in a hurry to attack. Instead, he accumulated strength and entered a meditative state. As a gust of night wind blew, the card trembled slightly. Su Yun could feel the hair on the back of his hand floating.

This was the feeling brought about by the realm of being able to use one’s arm as one’s finger. It was exquisite and realistic, as if the card and arm had become one and the hair had a life of its own.

At the moment, Su Yun had only developed two methods of flying cards. One was the Wave Breaking Technique with stronger explosive power and air-breaking power, and the other was the Downwind Technique with better speed and smoothness.

This time, Su Yun chose to take advantage of the night wind and use the wind technique.

Whoosh!

Feeling that it was just right, Su Yun did not hesitate and suddenly attacked.

As he swung his arm, his wrist shook ingeniously. A moment of friction flashed between his fingers, and the card left his hand.

With a swoosh, the gold leaf card drew a golden arc under the moonlight. It was like Hou Yi shooting the sun, especially eye-catching.

It was extremely fast and silent. In the blink of an eye, it had already passed by the locust tree.

Su Yun did not have time to reminisce about the carefree feeling when he dealt the cards. He quickly ran over and picked it up. He was afraid that he would not be able to find it later. Then, he turned back to observe the locust tree and realized that the Downwind Technique had failed?

It did not hit the locust tree!

Su Yun was surprised. He tried again and again and finally discovered the crux of the problem.

It turned out that after the size of the golden card was modified, although it was suitable for exerting strength, it ignored the problem of its weight.

As a result, even with the enhancement of the technique, the power and accuracy were deviated.

“Why did I neglect such an important question? It seems like I have to think about it. After all, it’s not the third realm where I’m one with things. It’s still necessary for the adaptation of special cards.”

Su Yun muttered but was not discouraged.

Ignoring the material of this golden card, just its quality and density were much higher than paper poker cards.

It was impossible to fly with the wind.

This was like how a paper kite could fly higher and higher in the wind, but an iron kite might have a problem flying.

Su Yun frowned and began to think of a way to break out of the situation.

“Actually, after the card increases its weight, it can better bear the explosive force when exerting force. However, it can only rely on the inertia after it leaves the hand.”

Su Yun thought for a long time and began to use practice to find a breakthrough.

Fortunately, he was already at the second realm and could adapt very well.

If one was at the beginner level, it would take a long time to adapt and learn a technique. However, it was different if one used it as one’s own arm. This was because the second level could sense the difference from the nuances and correct mistakes. Therefore, one only needed a few simple adjustments to find the adaptation point.

Finally, in a strong gust of wind, Su Yun successfully used the golden card to execute the wind technique.

Instantly, Su Yun understood the elements through the subtle feeling.

Although the golden card was heavier than a card, it was still considered a thin card.

As long as the wind power and the angle of control were increased appropriately, the effect could still be achieved.

As expected, after many attempts, Su Yun gradually grasped the pattern.

He became more and more proficient in using the wind technique of the golden card.

Then, Su Yun checked the damage the golden card caused to the locust tree under the wind technique.

—Hiss.

At first glance, he could not help but gasp..
