Qin Yu turned his head to look at the axe, only to see it covered in rust with not a trace of Spiritual Energy on it.

Qin Yu furrowed his brow, "Sect Master Chu, is this broken axe about to fall apart? Why keep it in the storeroom?"

"Alliance Hierarch Qin, to be honest, I don’t quite understand why either. This axe has been lying here since the day our Shanyang Sect was founded.

The first Sect Leader of the Shanyang Sect decreed that no one should remove it from the storeroom, claiming it was waiting for someone predestined.

Yet, so many years have passed, the axe has rusted to this state, and no such person has appeared."

"Someone predestined? It’s clearly just an ordinary axe. Perhaps your first-generation Sect Master was talking in his cups, eh?"

Qin Yu gently shook his head, lifted his foot, and kicked towards the huge axe, intending to break it!

Qin Yu had used thirty percent of his strength in that kick, in his mind, breaking an axe so rusted through should be incredibly easy.

However, to Qin Yu’s surprise, despite the axe being rust-ridden, it did not break under his kick, instead, it made his toes ache with pain!

"Ho? This axe is indeed a bit interesting."

Qin Yu’s interest was piqued; despite his casual kick, an ordinary Spiritual Artifact would definitely not have withstood it!

Apparently, this giant axe was at least not inferior to an ordinary Spiritual Artifact.

Qin Yu did not mind the dirt, he reached out to grab the rusty handle of the axe and exerted force suddenly, trying to lift the axe.

But to his amazement, even using all his strength, he could not lift the axe! Instead, he almost lost his grip and took a tumble!

"How can this be? What material is this axe made from?" Qin Yu looked at Chu Yunhai, a look of astonishment on his face.

Qin Yu’s reaction left the crowd baffled, and Chu Yunhai, equally puzzled, asked, "Alliance Hierarch Qin, why do you ask? This axe is very light, only about two pounds."

Upon saying this, Chu Yunhai reached out to grab the axe and easily swung it around a few times.

Huh?

This scene almost made Qin Yu’s eyeballs pop out of their sockets!

Chu Yunhai, whose strength was only at the Middle Stage of the Heavenly Human Realm, effortlessly picked up the huge axe, yet Qin Yu, who could exert the power of the Celestial Realm Peak, could not move it!

"Sect Master Chu, could you please hand the axe to me?"

"Sure!"

Chu Yunhai reached out to pass the axe to Qin Yu, and while in Chu Yunhai’s grasp, the axe felt very light, as if it were completely weightless to Qin Yu!

However, as soon as Chu Yunhai’s large hand left the axe, its weight returned to being immensely heavy!

Qin Yu let out a cry of alarm! Clang, the axe fell to the ground, shaking off some of its rust.

Qin Yu was baffled, what was happening? Even if he was a bit slow to catch on, he now understood that this axe was far from ordinary!

Qin Yu’s actions once again stunned the crowd. They had thought he was just joking the first time, but jokes aren’t usually repeated, right?

The Heavenly Secret Elder studied the axe carefully, his eyes narrowing, and he asked with uncertainty, "Qin Yu, do you find this axe very heavy?"

Qin Yu nodded and replied, "Yes, this axe is very heavy, it feels at least tens of tons. With my strength, I can easily lift something weighing a thousand pounds.

But I just couldn’t lift this axe!"

Qin Yu’s words made Heavenly Secret Elder’s eyes light up, as he considered a possibility. The Heavenly Secret Elder reached out for the axe, and like Chu Yunhai, he felt the axe was only two pounds heavy.

Whoosh, whoosh, the axe sliced through the air, leaving behind two afterimages.
