Aurum Blade

The Aurum Blade (オーラムの撃剣 Ōramu no Gekiken, literally meaning "Aurum Fencing") is a Blade introduced in Kid Icarus: Uprising. It was created by Dyntos based on Aurum aspects. This weapon charges quickly and fires shots with a high homing ability. To unlock the Aurum Blade in Treasure Hunt, Pit has to destroy eight of the Aurum Core's guns in Chapter 15.
