Jiang Sibai continued to swing the hammer, easily completing the first, second and third forging of the iron ore.
He couldn't help but start to think of the "Kunyu Houde Pian" he had read and what he had understood about Kunyu's houde and the spirit of the earth.
Then he slowly entered a wonderful state of meditation. The true energy moved according to his heart, attracting the earthly spiritual energy, and these spiritual energy merged into the iron ore being forged with every strike.
So gradually, every hammer he struck seemed to have a little vibration and fluctuation, so that the first forging that originally required four hammers gradually became only three or two hammers to complete!
Jiang Sibai's four hammers and one forging before were actually just the control of strength and skills, but they were not considered the pinnacle.
If he continues to be immersed in this industry and has the right hammer, three or two hammers are possible.
Even if he switches to a sledgehammer and hits hard, it shouldn't be difficult if he practices more hammering and forging.
But now he is obviously using a normal hammer, but he is actually gradually getting better at hammering it!
The face of a hammer is only so big, but there are always many red-hot iron blocks that cannot be struck by the hammer. How can it be forged with one hammer?
In fact, the ingenious fluctuations produced by each hammer blow actually seem to be able to transmit force, making the unevenness on the surface of the iron block even out at once.
This is amazing.
And Tiejiang Han witnessed this magical scene with his own eyes, and felt that the young master Xiaobai in front of him was the reincarnation of heaven and man!
Jiang Sibai gradually woke up.
But he did not break away from this state. Instead, he continued to maintain the connection between his true energy, earth element spiritual power and the hammer.
The image of a sword gradually appeared in his mind. It was exactly the style he needed in the near future, a sword that incorporated his own understanding of virtue.
"Dang! Dang! Dang!"
The last three hammers fell, and the sword embryo took shape.
Then comes the finishing touch, quenching.
It is a pity that the best way to quench the water in this Ji City is with the water from a cold spring well. This is the experience Jiang Sibai has summed up in the past six years.
And this well is in the yard behind the blacksmith shop, so fresh well water is naturally available at this time.
"Tsk~"
When the hot sword embryo enters the water, it will be filled with mist.
After quenching, traces of water lines appeared on the sword, which looked like a map of mountains.
Originally, the next step was to polish the sword body to make it smooth and white and open the edge.
But Jiang Sibai looked at the sky and stopped working.
"Okay, time is limited, let's stop here, I'll leave first."
Seeing this, Blacksmith Han could only pat his thigh with regret, as if he had missed the birth of a magical weapon.
But he didn't know that Jiang Sibai had no intention of polishing the newly tempered sword embryo.
He felt that the solid feeling now was very good, completely in line with the image in his mind.
I saw that this sword was one meter long and one palm wide, with a blunt end and no edge, and was very thick.
It is also quite heavy when it falls in the hand. Generally, people who are used to the two-foot-long green blade will probably have to put both hands together to dance.
However, Jiang Sibai had practiced physical skills and hammered for years, so he still had some strength.
When he came to escort his master and junior sister back to Baiyi the next day, the sword had already been equipped with a hilt and a sword, giving it a rather mighty appearance.
Even though the scabbard was not ready yet, he could only hold the oilcloth and hang it on his back, but it did not affect his movement.
When Taoist Mo Shang saw this scene, his throat choked up.
He asked: "This sword is..."
Jiang Sibai said: "I just made this new one yesterday. There is still a lot of work to do, but I have to escort Qiuniang so I carried it here first."
"Speaking of which, although this sword is not yet completed, it is already the best sword I have ever forged."
Taoist Mo Shang was speechless for a moment, then sighed heavily and said, "Xiao Bai, you have forged a spiritual sword. It is of course infinitely more advanced than ordinary swords."
"Did you know that even in Fire Hammer Valley, as long as you can forge a spiritual weapon, you can be accepted as a disciple immediately, and it is very possible to even directly become a true disciple."
His expression seemed to be saying why did Jiang Sibai come to Shennong Valley to farm?
Jiang Sibai didn't take this seriously. He said, "Anyway, they have eliminated me. I can only be Master's disciple."
"Speaking of which, can we in Shennong Valley practice sword and forging?"
Taoist Mo Shang nodded repeatedly and said, "Of course it's okay. This is a personal matter of the disciple and no one can take care of it."
Then he said with some nostalgia: "Speaking of it, most of our disciples in Shennong Valley are relatively dull or aloof from the world. In fact, when we were young, everyone more or less had a dream of being a knight, or something like that. I once thought about practicing beautiful swordsmanship."
"It's just that few people can do it."
Jiang Sibai breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this. After all, he had worked hard in this area for so long, and sword making and kendo had become his hobbies.
From now on, his main business will definitely be farming in Shennong Valley, but who said he can't have a few hobbies?
His mood became much brighter, and he introduced it to Taoist Mo Shang: "Master, this sword is actually made from the inspiration of "Kunyu Houde Pian" after practicing "Kunyu Houde Chapter". When casting, the earth's energy was introduced. Let Master feel psychic."
Taoist Mo Shang was quite impressed when he heard this. He felt that it was really pleasant to have such an ingenious disciple.
He said: "Is this sword famous?"
Jiang Sibai shook his head and said: "I haven't named it yet, why don't I ask Master to help me?"
The old Taoist priest stroked his beard and smiled and said: "Since this sword was made by you after realizing Kunyu's kindness, how about calling it 'Kunyu Sword'?"
Jiang Sibai hesitated after hearing this and said: "It's not right to comment on the name given by the teacher. However, the disciple has only briefly understood the "Kunyu Houde Chapter", and the sword used to cast it is only ordinary iron..."
"Why don't we call it 'Kunyu Sword·Trial Strike'. When I have a deeper understanding of "Kunyu Houde Chapter" in the future, I will choose the best spiritual materials to make it to make it a real product."
The old Taoist priest nodded in approval and made no comment.
Taoist Mo Shang doesn't know how to make swords or do swordsmanship. It's better to let the disciples grow wildly on their own.
After the master and apprentice chatted for a while, they set off on the road together, following the ox cart towards Baiyi.
Of course, there were soldiers escorting them along the way, but neither the master nor the disciple would take Qiuniang's matter lightly.
In the evening before the sun set, the team arrived at Baiyi.
Butler Zhong had prepared everything a long time ago. The nanny got off the carriage with Xiao Qiuniang in her arms and was taken into a large room warmed by charcoal fire.
Although the various things are not as exquisite as those used in Qiudao Palace, they are all available.
Seeing this, Taoist Mo Shang breathed a sigh of relief and felt relieved.
After all, for him, keeping Qiuniang in Qiudao Palace depends on the resources provided by King Ji. This is a favor.
But it's different here with Jiang Sibai. After all, Jiang Sibai is the disciple of Taoist Mo Shang, so this kind of thing is natural.
