"During molding, the temperature inside the tripod should be controlled to drop slowly according to the characteristics of the material, so that it is easy to shape, but the speed of the drop should not be too fast."
Ye Lao controlled the flame as he spoke, and the temperature in the air slowly dropped at a very slight speed.
The purple-red solution in the cauldron slowly gathered into a ball. The ball was suspended in the cauldron, as if torn apart by some mysterious force, and gradually turned into a bright red long thin stick hanging down in the cauldron.
Then the thin stick became flat as if being squeezed, and several more materials were added in between, until two hours later, a red giant sword finally took shape.
Mr. Ye kept rotating his hands, and a red crystal carved into the shape of a star flew towards the giant sword and gently stopped at the sword grid. The crystal gently pressed against the giant sword and slowly integrated into the sword grid.
Seeing the sword taking shape, Mr. Ye not only did not relax, but said even more solemnly:
"This is the key link in the entire sword refining process - quenching!
The quality of the sword and its success depend on this moment. Get the blood of the sword-piercing tiger beast quickly. "
"Okay." Liangchen quickly handed over a bowl of scarlet beast blood that had been prepared in advance.
Uncle Ye caught the beast's blood and splashed it on the long sword.
With a sound of "This—", the beast's blood instantly turned into a dense mist of blood and enveloped the giant sword.
Liangchen held his breath and stared at the giant sword intently, and found that there seemed to be a little golden light flashing in the middle of the blood mist.
I don't know if the giant sword has suction, or if the blood mist is also under the control of Ye Lao, the blood mist slowly floats towards the giant sword.
For every bit of blood mist that touches the giant sword, the red color of the giant sword becomes darker and the blood mist becomes lighter.
In the end, the dense air became less and less, and the red giant sword turned into a pitch black giant sword hanging in the cauldron.
"Did it succeed?" Ye Liangchen asked doubtfully and eagerly as he looked at the giant sword.
"Wait a moment." Mr. Ye stared at the giant sword and said without moving.
Liangchen was wondering when he suddenly felt a chill all over his body. A circle of cold light emitted from the sword body, instantly filled the entire room, and suddenly disappeared without a trace.
"Haha, it's done!" Mr. Ye finally said with a smile.
"What was that white light just now?" Liangchen asked.
"When a treasure is perfected, it shines outward and then introverts. If a spiritual treasure is perfected, the movement will be much bigger than this!" Mr. Ye replied with a smile.
"Didn't the people around know what happened just now?" Liangchen asked again.
“Our refining room was built with special stone materials, which has the effect of isolating mana fluctuations to a certain extent, and it has a formation blessed by the family.
This small fluctuation would not disturb others. "
"Besides, do you think every store in this city doesn't have its own prohibition method?" Mr. Ye replied calmly while sheathing his sword.
Mr. Ye took the demon-slaying sword that he had just successfully refined and said:
"The quality is quite good, and it is also in good condition among lower-level magic weapons."
So in the following time, Mr. Ye refined two more demon-slaying swords.
Unfortunately, I don't know whether it was due to lack of mana in the end or some other reason, but the last sword failed and became a useless sword.
So Mr. Ye decided to wait for his mana to recover before continuing to refine the sword.
I entered the refining room in the afternoon, and it was already noon on the second day when I left.
Mr. Ye slowly went back to his house to rest with a tired look on his face. It seemed that he had consumed a lot of mana this day and night.
After a day and night of observation, Liangchen gained a lot. When he returned to his room, he carefully reviewed the entire process of refining the sword in his mind, comparing some important processes with what was written in the book and then pondering them carefully.
Finally, I finished my daily practice exercises and fell asleep.
After resting for a day, Uncle Ye continued to refine swords. This time he refined two demon-slaying swords in succession, both of which were successful.
As for the Qinghuang Sword, because it was an intermediate magic weapon, Uncle Ye decided to take a day off and start refining it when his magic power was restored and he was energetic.
After these few days of study, Liangchen had a general understanding of the entire process of weapon refining.
Moreover, during this period of time, I have become very proficient in using the Fireball Technique, and I have begun to study the Spiritual Flame Technique.
The Spiritual Flame Technique talks about the method of controlling flames, such as condensing and condensing the flames. Although the shape becomes smaller, the power increases.
Another example is transforming flames into various forms, such as fire birds, fire snakes, etc.
Once you become proficient in manipulation, you can make the flames as flexible as your own hands.
For example, Ye Lao's method of controlling the flame to wrap around the ore when calcining the ore, and his method of controlling the slight decrease in the power of the flame when the weapon is formed, are all based on this Spiritual Flame Technique.
Thinking of this, he became more diligent in meditating on the Spiritual Flame Art.
Two days passed in the blink of an eye, and Mr. Ye was already ready and started refining the Qinghuang Sword.
"The Qinghuang Sword is a middle-grade magic weapon with wind attributes. The sword body is light and comes and goes like the wind, so it is mainly made of lithium stone."
As Mr. Ye spoke, he took out the fire cauldron, put in a portion of lithium ore, and slowly calcined it.
"Lithium stone is light and soft, and the wind energy can be exerted quickly. Generally, weapons with wind attributes mostly use this light and agile material as the main material.
Lithium stone melts quickly, unlike the black iron stone, which takes an hour or two, usually half an hour. "Mr. Ye was refining his sword and explaining it in detail.
After a while, a sword as thin as a willow leaf took shape.
"Wind Wolf Blood." Mr. Ye ordered.
Liangchen handed a portion of lavender wind wolf blood to Mr. Ye, thinking that Mr. Ye would splash it on the sword like that day.
But I saw him making a magic trick, taking out the vial containing the wind wolf's blood, flying above the sword, and slowly pouring down from the hilt.
I didn't see the blood mist that day, but I saw the trace of wind wolf blood slowly flowing down the sword, as if the sword was a willow leaf with veins.
After the beast finished bleeding, the sword gradually darkened, and finally turned into a green sword hanging in the cauldron.
Liangchen wondered if the light of this mid-level sword was more brilliant, so he stared at the sword intently, for fear of missing something.
After about half a stick of incense, Liangchen suddenly felt a breeze blowing across his face, and then disappeared like an hallucination.
"It's done! This is the end of the refining today, and the other one will be continued tomorrow." Liangchen was in a daze, and Mr. Ye's words rang in his ears.
"If you have any questions or things you don't understand, just ask me." Mr. Ye took back the fire cauldron and sorted out the materials.
"Uncle Ye, why didn't the glow shine out when this weapon was finished? Also, I just felt a breeze blowing on my face. Is it an illusion?" Liangchen asked.
"The Qinghuang Sword is a wind-attribute magic weapon. When the sword is completed, it can cause the wind to move. The breeze just now is the symbol of the sword being completed!
There are thousands of kinds of treasures in the world, each with its own unique characteristics.
Some are overflowing with rays of light, some are seducing the wind and thunder, and some are motionless but can attract the soul.
All these things require you to learn and experience a lot, so you still have a long way to go in this weapon refining journey! "
Uncle Ye answered his question with a smile.
After asking a few other questions at such a good time, the two of them went back to their rooms to rest.
