Today’s sixth update: Chapter 505!
…
Ou Yezi sighed and looked at Xu Kun with a resentful look: "You are so sincere!"
"Hehehe!" Seeing that his master didn't look harsh on him, Xu Kun smiled stupidly.
But soon, Xu Kun discovered the strangeness of this spring water.
He took away nearly 50,000 cubic meters of water, and in a very short time, the water level rose again!
The water-fetching tools leading to the entire Sword Pond Holy Land that had been shut down because of the inability to mobilize water began to operate again because of the rising water level!
This scene made Xu Kun amazed!
Seeing Xu Kun staring at the water again, Ou Yezi hurriedly stopped him and said, "Don't stop it. Although you have the supplement of that SS-level water species, if you harvest too much in a short period of time, it won't be able to replenish it. What if?" We’re in a hurry, there’s no telling if this water species that already possesses spirituality will escape!”
Xu Kun smiled coquettishly: "Master, the water I collected should be enough for a long time. Come back next time!"
Ou Yezi silently prayed to his eldest disciple!
"Come on, the fire is already burning, and I will teach you the casting skills next!"
"Everyone's casting skills are greatly different due to their different experiences, which leads to different directions of objects that everyone is good at casting!"
"For example, when forging those large and ingenious equipment, you need brute force. It is difficult to complete the forging of those heavy metals without enough strength!"
"And some delicate equipment requires skill. Some materials with soft texture and strong plasticity can be easily damaged if excessive force is used!"
"Among all kinds of artifacts, sword casting is a combination of brute force and ingenuity. And your senior brother is only able to achieve what he is today because of his high talent in sword casting!"
"But for a top caster, a single casting skill has already limited his upper limit. Therefore, if your senior brother wants to cast an SSS-level supreme artifact in this life, it will be very difficult, so difficult that it is almost impossible!"
"And now, you are just a piece of jade!"
"The casting skills you showed when you competed with Chi'er earlier were completely unsightly and wild!"
Xu Kun's face was full of embarrassment.
"Don't think I'm laughing at you. On the contrary, people like you who have not systematically learned any casting skills are the most suitable ones to cultivate!"
Without fixed thinking, you will not fall into thinking limitations!
"Don't focus on the numerical success rate of casting skills. You must know that man can defeat nature. When your own casting skills are high enough, you can ignore the success rate of casting skills!"
"First of all, in the first step, I need to teach you the technique of exerting force. For the same ten points of force, with unscientific force exertion techniques, you can only exert eight points, or even lower!"
"But after systematic study, you can not only exert 100% of your power, but also 120% of your power, which is beyond your own limits!"
As he spoke, Ou Yezi took out two ordinary casting hammers.
"Your Xing Luo Jiutian, as your casting skills have improved, you should be a little unable to use it now, right?"
"Master, do you even know this?"
"Haha, it's just based on experience!"
"With your current level of casting, using Xingluo Jiutian to assist in casting will not only be of no benefit, but it will also make you rely too much on external objects because of the power of Xingluo Jiutian. If this continues, one day you will be unable to cast it. The star fell in the sky and caused the casting technique to stagnate!"
"So, when you cast with me in the future, you should use this B-level casting hammer first. It is just suitable for your current casting skills!"
Xu Kun nodded and waved the casting hammer in his hand. Compared with the already extremely heavy Xingluo Jiutian, this casting hammer was as light as a feather to Xu Kun!
“Don’t think that because the casting hammer is light, it is of little use!”
As he said that, Ou Yezi threw a piece of metal into the furnace. After the calcination was completed, he used his exquisite fire control skills to extract it directly from the air!
"Come on, use the casting hammer in your hand and try your best to forge this piece of metal into shape before it cools down!"
Xu Kun nodded, picked up the casting hammer, and slammed the hammer down!
Under Xu Kun's power, the metal quickly deformed, and the impurities inside were constantly stripped away!
But this piece of metal was tougher than any metal Xu Kun had ever forged before. Xu Kun hammered for a long time, but he still hadn't completely forged it. Instead, the temperature on the metal had slowly dropped!
Xu Kun seemed a little anxious, and the strength of his original control was increased a bit!
Sparks were flying on the metal. Just when Xu Kun was proud of this moment, there was a click, and the B-level casting hammer in his hand... broke!
Xu Kun: (′ʘ⌄ʘ‵)
Ou Yezi's face was calm, as if he had foreseen such an outcome!
He reached out and grabbed the piece of metal that had cooled down, and said with a smile: "68% purity, you failed!"
"Master, I..."
"Don't feel disappointed. The moment you swung the forging hammer, I already knew that your forging this time would definitely fail!"
"Besides the wrong technique in exerting force, you are still lacking in one thing!"
"Which point?"
"Do you know the name of this piece of metal?"
Xu Kun shook his head.
"Then you don't even know the properties of this piece of metal!"
Xu Kun opened his mouth but was speechless.
"It's just like when you face someone in the Haotian Tower. You don't even know the other person's level, attributes, and skills. How can you be confident that you can beat the other person?"
Xu Kun was speechless.
"The accumulation of basic knowledge is equally important. Here, take this book and remember to read it at any time!"
Xu Kun took the kraft paper book handed over by Ou Yezi, with "Encyclopedia of Ore and Metals" written on it!
"In this book, except for the specialties of a few races and extremely rare metal ores, other ore metals from F grade to SSS grade are all recorded, including their characteristics and applicable directions. You need to keep it in mind. !”
Xu Kunzhen carefully picked up this book. For a foundry master, its value is no less than an SSS-level skill book!
This is a treasure that casters of all ages concluded after seeing countless metal ores!
"Next, I will show you the force-generating techniques for forging various metals. All you need to do is to first find the right metal in the book, then combine it with my force-generating techniques, and then use it on yourself!"
"There are thousands of metals in the world, and this cannot be accomplished in a day. It is extremely difficult to memorize all the techniques for exerting force, let alone apply them to yourself!"
"So this stage is the stage where nothing can penetrate the stone. I won't forge high-grade metals for the time being. I will mainly focus on B-grade and C-grade metals. You have to watch out!"
Xu Kun nodded repeatedly and widened his eyes, unwilling to miss every moment!
If Xu Kun's other senior brothers saw their master teaching their junior brother like this, they would probably go crazy with jealousy!
This is not teaching disciples, this is training one's own son!
As the first forger of the human race and the third forger of the Ten Thousand Races, how could Ouye teach his disciples one-on-one and step-by-step like today!
It would be good for others, including generals, to be able to watch from the sidelines while Ou Yezi builds equipment, and then go back to understand it themselves.
Under normal circumstances, Ou Yezi would just let his apprentices explore on their own and then point out the mistakes from the side!
Xu Kun didn't understand Ou Yezi's preference for him, but it didn't stop him from carefully watching his mentor demonstrate how to forge these low-level metals!
Ou Yezi moved very quickly. A piece of B-grade metal was forged under his casting hammer in less than a minute, and the purity naturally reached the highest level of 100%!
His movements when casting were not like those sweating blacksmiths in the blacksmith shop, but like a dancing nobleman!
When forging, every rhythm is like stepping on a dance step!
Xu Kun couldn't help but be fascinated by it!
An hour later, the metal forged by Ou Yezi was piled up next to him.
Just when Ou Yezi insisted on biting off more than he could chew and asked Xu Kun to try forging metal again, he discovered that Xu Kun slowly closed his eyes and then sat down cross-legged!
"this……"
Dinglang...
Ou Yezi's casting hammer fell to the ground.
An epiphany?
Just teaching him the forging methods of various metals from shallow to deep for the first time allowed him to enter the state of enlightenment that countless people dream of!
After the shock, Ou Yezi was relieved. The more he looked at this young apprentice, the more he liked him!
Xu Kun sat cross-legged for more than an hour. During this period, scenes of Ou Yezi swinging the casting hammer flashed through his mind, until finally, Ou Yezi's figure became his own!
An epiphany saves ordinary people years of work!
When Xu Kun opened his eyes, a bright light flashed in his eyes!
Not far away, Ou Yezi, who was sitting cross-legged on the ground, felt that Xu Kun had exited the state of enlightenment, and immediately smiled and said: "Not bad, very good!"
Xu Kun was about to answer when a shock came from the metal bracelet!
