I Can See Health Bars in Real Life-Chapter 339 - 12: Modern Timespace—Demon Sword and Seal (Part 3)

In a certain sense, it truly is particularly magical.

Gu Mo walked out of the shrine, first glancing at the sky, and coincidentally, it was also late at night in the modern world.

Not far away, the towering tree stood quietly in the night wind. His eyes lit up, and he immediately walked quickly towards it, examining this Era Tree. Yet, he did not sense any power from it, there was no Spiritual Power, nor Demonic Power. If it weren’t for knowing the mystical nature of this Divine Wood, he probably wouldn’t think it was anything remarkable.

"Hmmmm... Let me think."

His gaze wandered back and forth over the branches of the Era Tree. Gu Mo pondered where to start, thinking it would be good to cut some wood to take back... This material is extremely precious; once this chance is gone, it won’t return.

Just in time, a gust of night wind blew, making the trees rustle.

"Eh?" Gu Mo slightly toned down his expression, tilting his head and watching it for a long while, unsure if this thing had a spirituality.

However, this matter could wait. He turned his head and looked around. The Himura Shrine was somewhat large, but most of the area was open space. The main hall of the shrine and the Himura Family’s residence at the back were the main parts... What he was looking for should be in the Himura family’s house. 𝕗𝕣𝐞𝐞𝘄𝐞𝚋𝚗𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗹.𝚌𝕠𝚖

After all, it was just a two-story house. Once you exclude the living spaces for a family of four, there wasn’t much space left to store things.

Come to think of it, raiding this entire family’s possessions, isn’t that a bit inappropriate? Gu Mo thought to himself as he walked towards that house.

Silently sneaking into the house, he quickly found a storage room. It was probably where Grandpa Himura collected his various "treasures," a room full of miscellaneous items, all looking somewhat old, piled up in boxes.

His Spiritual Power extended outward, like invisible spider silk, quickly spreading throughout the storage room. In the blink of an eye, he filtered through everything, selecting what he needed in the limited space. Gu Mo easily found the item he wanted.

Moving boxes one by one, he found a large box in the farthest corner. After gently removing the clutter inside, he finally saw lying quietly at the very bottom, an ancient straight blade. Its wooden scabbard was old-fashioned, somewhat monotonous, and the top of the handle was inlaid with a pale white pearl, about the size of a ping-pong ball, seemingly carved from stone.

Cloudy Fang...

A sword regarded as the strongest demon sword in the plot’s debut, lying here collecting dust, as if it were given for free, buried at the bottom of a box.

Gu Mo reached out and gently picked it up, and the identification feature revealed to him that it was a Gold Level equipment... No, it should be said that there were two items, because even the sword scabbard itself was a Silver Level equipment, though with noticeable differences in color gloss displayed by the two.

——"Cloudy Fang (Sealed)."

The demon sword’s name was in dazzling, brilliant gold, extremely radiant, the pure, shining gold almost rivaling the mask on his hand.

——"Cloudy Fang’s Sword Scabbard."

The wooden scabbard’s name was in a very dull, silver color, with a sort of mottled feel; even the edges had remnants of a very slight, almost unnoticeable gold.

It seems the system uses color depth and purity distinction to simply assess the quality level of the equipment items. Gu Mo pondered slightly, a bit regretful in his gaze, could it be that the sword scabbard itself was also a Gold Level equipment?

It seems very possible, after all, the Great Dog General passed away seven hundred years ago, and since his death, no one has been able to control the Cloudy Fang, leaving only the scabbard to seal it.

Scabbards of the same material, yet the scabbards of the Iron Shattering Fang and the Heavenly Fang did not develop consciousness, while only Cloudy Fang’s scabbard did, not only unique but also suppressing this demon sword alone for seven hundred years... It’s a pity that such a prolonged sealing must have exhausted the scabbard’s power.

Sighing slightly, Gu Mo suppressed the regret in his heart, grasping Cloudy Fang’s handle and lifting it.

At this moment, the wooden scabbard gently emitted light, as if Aladdin’s Lamp was being rubbed, and the Lamp Spirit emerged from the spout, manifesting as a peculiar light ball hovering above the sword scabbard’s engraving. Meanwhile, a hoarse voice spoke: "Demon, did you come here specifically for this sword?"

"No."

Gu Mo wasn’t scared and responded straightforwardly: "I just happened to pass by, accidentally wandered in here, and happened to discover this sword, so I was curious and picked it up to take a look."

"..."

"..."

The sword scabbard was immediately silenced by him. This person didn’t follow the script at all with his opening line, leaving it momentarily unsure what to say next... Besides, this was obviously telling a blatant lie, making it hard for it to judge his behavior.

Although all its power was suppressing the demon sword, it wasn’t completely unaware of external changes. This guy sneaked into the family’s house at night, precisely located this storage room, and unmistakably retrieved Cloudy Fang from among a pile of boxes...

What kind of just passing by is that? Accidental intrusion?

And also just happened to find this demon sword?
