Chapter 468: Ascension

At about half past six in the evening, as the arrow body gradually took shape, Chen Lao Wu and Li Xun's movements also tended to be more delicate.
After a day of forging, Li Xun at least looked like a qualified blacksmith.
His movements have become very proficient, and he has gradually become accustomed to the needs of the final stage of forging.
At this stage, his action of using the power of his blood to swing the sledgehammer can be described by the words "lifting weights as light".
Raised high, falling with no light or heavy force.
Even because the sledgehammer itself has a weight of 300 kilograms, after free fall, its impact will become even greater, Li Xun not only can't use any more force, but even has to reverse the force to control the speed of its fall.
It's a bigger challenge to dynamics.
The body of the arrow has become less than one-fifth of the thickness before, not much thicker than the thumb, and the impurities in the body of the arrow have been completely forged and removed, and now it has entered the stage of shaping.
But the more this is the case, the more Li Xun has a feeling that this challenge is actually a greater degree of exercise for his bloodline strength, which is more effective than the previous exercise.
If it is said that Li Xun used all his strength to forge the arrow body before, it was a kind of exercise in the strength of the blood force.
Then, now after entering this end, the forging is a kind of exercise to control the strength released by the power of the bloodline.
When it comes to bloodline power, strength is important, but so is control.
And no matter what kind of exercise it is, this feeling of clearly grasping and feeling the improvement of one's own strength is really good.
He had forgotten that it was a forged arrow.
Totally addicted, totally engaged.
There are no distractions in the heart, and there are no external objects in the body.
It was as if between heaven and earth, only the arrow in front of him and the power in his veins remained.
A hammer and a beat, the arrow is struck, the heart is forged, and the strength is sharpened.
The arrow becomes more and more perfect, the heart becomes more and more calm, and the power becomes more and more integrated.
This feeling can be understood but not expressed.
This made Li Xun engrossed in it, indulging in the pleasure of forging the elevation of his own strength.
If it weren't for Chen Lao Wu's more and more frequent throwing the arrow body into the furnace fire at the end to maintain its proper temperature and give Li Xun a chance to rest, Li Xun might have completely indulged in it.
It's a wonderful taste.
As for Chen Lao Wu, he has now increased the intensity and frequency of his forging, and the landing point and angle of his small hammer have become more careful and tricky, making the arrow body more perfect as much as possible.
Finally, just after Chen Lao Wu carefully struck Wan's final hammer, he suddenly shouted: "Li Xun, enough!"
Li Xun woke up from his addiction and replied a little dazedly: "Is it enough?"
Now to cool it down, when its temperature gradually drops below 882 degrees, it will change from Ξ² titanium alloy to perfect A titanium alloy, which is the arrow we need. β
But it is not a natural cooling.
There was a jar of clear water on the side.
Chen Lao Wu firmly clamped the still red arrow body with pliers, and quickly threw it into the clear water.
I only heard a "bang" and the heat rose.
Chen Lao Wu immediately took out the arrow body again and looked at it carefully.
As he watched, he nodded, his eyes twinkling.
Then he put the quenched arrow back into the furnace to warm it.
It was not heated to an extremely high temperature, Chen Lao Wu was carefully controlling the temperature, but it was controlled below 882 degrees, and it was heated in the state of a titanium alloy.
When it burned a little red, he quenched it again.
Repeat this several times.
Li Xun has a general understanding of Chen Laowu's actions at this time, which should be to greatly improve the strength, toughness and fatigue strength of the arrow body through continuous quenching and tempering.
Just after the last quenching, Chen Lao Wu did not put the arrow body into the fire again, but held the arrow body with both hands and looked at it carefully.
His expression gradually became richer, and his hands trembled slightly, as if it was difficult to suppress the excitement in his heart.
Li Xun leaned in and looked at the arrow body equally carefully.
The body of the arrow is dark and shiny, although it is not polished, but you can still feel the cold air brought by the arrow body.
It's hard to imagine how far this arrow would have been if it had been polished with a sharp edge.
Although Li Xun is not a blacksmith and is not a professional, he can still feel the infinite power contained in this arrow.
What's even more strange is that Li Xun can vaguely sense that there seems to be a mysterious connection between this arrow body and his body.
It's also a feeling that can only be understood but not expressed.
I can't say it, but it definitely exists.
Li Xun knew in his heart that this may be what Chen Lao Wu said, after Li Xun personally used the bloodline power to build the arrow body, the arrow body and his bloodline power established a certain mysterious fit.
After thinking for a moment, Li Xun asked, "How is it?"
In fact, Li Xun didn't need to ask, but he still habitually asked.
Chen Lao Wu recovered from his excitement and grinned: "I said earlier, what we want to build today is a peerless good arrow, and that must be a peerless good arrow! I am sure that before we build a second arrow, it is the best arrow in the world!"
After speaking, Chen Lao Wu didn't have time to rest, and he didn't have time to pay attention to Li Xun anymore, so he just threw down a sentence: "I'll go to Kaifeng and polish, and I'll do it overnight, I can't wait, I want to see how good it can be, you take a rest first, and we will start building the second arrow tomorrow." β
With that, he hurried away with the arrow.
Kaifeng polished this matter, he didn't need Li Xun's help.
Li Xunfang breathed a sigh of relief, and only then did he have time to look around.
He saw Chen Lingxi for the first time, and also saw another figure, Song Junxing.
Song Junxing was standing not far away, looking in their direction with interest.
Li Xun vaguely remembered that Song Junxing seemed to have been watching him and Chen Laowu from the side since the afternoon.
In fact, the people from the hunter team who came with Li Xun had already come to see Li Xun striking iron, but only Chen Lingxi and Song Junxing were watching from beginning to end.
After all, in the eyes of outsiders, after the shock of Li Xun's hammer passed at the beginning, the process of striking iron seemed relatively boring, especially to endure the deafening sound of striking iron, so few people could insist on watching it.
Song Junxing saw Li Xun looking at him and smiled faintly.
"Congratulations, Li Xun. β
"Thanks, I didn't expect to be able to make a good arrow. Li Xun also smiled.
"I'm not congratulating you on that, but some improvements are more important to you. Song Junxing's eyes flashed with wisdom. (To be continued.) )
