Chapter 13: The Beginning of the Sword
"When molding, the temperature in the tripod should be controlled according to the characteristics of the material to drop slowly, so that it is easy to form, but the decline speed should not be too fast. ”
Ye Lao controlled the flames as he spoke, and the temperature in the air slowly dropped at a very slight rate.
The purple-red solution in the tripod slowly gathered into a round ball, and the ball was suspended in the tripod, as if torn by some mysterious force, and gradually turned into a bright red long stick hanging in the tripod.
Then the stick flattened as if squeezed, and several more materials were added in between, until two hours later, a red greatsword finally took shape.
Ye Lao's hands kept turning, and a red crystal carved into the shape of a star flew towards the giant sword, and gently stopped at the sword grid, and the crystal gently attached to the giant sword, slowly merging into the sword grid.
Watching the sword take shape, Ye Lao not only did not relax, but said more solemnly:
"At this time, it is the key link of the entire sword refining process - quenching!
The quality of the sword, whether it is successful or not depends on the moment. Quickly bring the blood of the sword-piercing tiger beast. ”
"Okay. Liangchen hurriedly handed over a bowl of scarlet beast blood that had been prepared in advance.
As soon as Uncle Ye received the beast's blood, he threw his hand at the long sword.
With a "Z-" sound, the beast's blood instantly turned into a cloud of blood mist, enveloping the giant sword in it.
Liangchen held his breath and stared at the giant sword, 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 this blood mist is also under Ye Lao's manipulation, the blood mist slowly drifts towards the giant sword.
Every bit of blood mist on the giant sword makes the red color of the giant sword a little darker, and the blood mist a little lighter.
In the end, the dense qi became less and less, and the red giant sword also turned into a pitch-black giant sword hanging in the ding.
"Did you succeed?" Ye Liangchen asked suspiciously and eagerly as he looked at the giant sword.
"Wait. Ye Lao also stared at the giant sword and said motionlessly.
Liangchen was wondering, and suddenly felt a chill all over his body, and a circle of cold light was released from the sword body, instantly filling the entire room, and suddenly disappearing without a trace.
"Hehe, it's done!" Ye Lao said with a smile at this time.
"What was that white light just now?" asked Liangchen.
"When the treasure is cultivated, there is a ray of light, and then it is restrained. If the spirit treasure is cultivated, the movement will be bigger than this!" Ye Lao replied with a smile.
"Didn't the people around you know about the movement just now?" asked Liangchen again.
"Our refining room, when it was built, was built with special stones, which has the effect of isolating mana fluctuations to a certain extent, and has a formation blessed by the family.
This small fluctuation still can't disturb others. ”
"Besides, do you think that every shop in this city doesn't have its own prohibition methods?" Ye Lao replied indifferently as he put away his sword.
Ye Lao ** had only succeeded in refining the demon slaying sword, and said:
"The quality is still good, and it is also in good condition in the lower-level magic weapon. ”
So in the following time, Ye Lao refined two more demon swords.
It's a pity that I don't know if it was the lack of mana in the end, or what the reason was, the last sword didn't succeed and became a waste sword.
So Ye Lao decided to wait for his mana to recover before starting to continue refining the sword.
I entered the refining room in the afternoon, and it was already noon on the second day when I went out again.
Ye Lao slowly went back to the house to rest with a tired look on his face, it seemed that the mana consumed a lot this day and night.
After a day and a night of observation, Liangchen also gained a lot, returned to the room, carefully reviewed the whole process of refining the sword, and compared some important processes with what was written in the book.
In the end, after completing his daily cultivation homework, he also fell asleep in a drowsy manner.
After resting for a day, Uncle Ye began to continue refining the sword, and this time he refined two demon swords in a row, and they were all successful.
As for the Qinghuang Sword, because it was a mid-level magic weapon, Uncle Ye decided to rest for a day and start refining it only when the mana was full of energy.
After these few days of study, Liangchen has a general understanding of the entire process of refining.
Moreover, during this time, his fireball technique has also been very proficient, and he has begun to study the Spirit Flame Technique.
The Spirit Flame Technique is about the method of fire manipulation, such as condensing and condensing the flame, although the form has become smaller, but the power has increased.
Another example is the transformation of flames into various forms, such as firebirds, firesnakes and other forms.
When skillfully handled, the flame can be as flexible as your own hands.
For example, Ye Lao's method of manipulating the flame to wrap the ore when calcining the ore, as well as the 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 even more diligent in comprehending the Spirit Flame Technique.
Two days passed, and Ye Lao had already finished preparing and began refining the Qinghuang Sword.
"Qinghuang sword, a medium-grade magic weapon, a wind attribute magic weapon, the sword body is light, and it comes and goes like the wind, so it is mainly used for lithium. ”
Ye Lao said as he sacrificed the fire tripod, put in a portion of lithium ore, and slowly calcined.
"Lithium is light and soft, and the wind spiritual power exerts quickly, and the general wind attribute weapons mostly use such light and agile materials as the main material.
Lithium melts quickly, unlike the black ironstone, which takes one or two hours, usually half an hour. Ye Lao practiced the sword while generally explaining in detail.
In a short time, a slender sword as thin as a willow leaf took shape.
"Wind wolf blood. Ye Lao commanded.
Liangchen handed a lilac wind wolf blood to Ye Lao, thinking that Ye Lao would still splash it on the sword like that day.
But I saw that he made a trick, sacrificed the vial containing the blood of the wind wolf, flew above the sword, and slowly poured down from the hilt.
I didn't see the blood mist of 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 a vein.
When the beast's blood was gone, the sword gradually darkened, and finally turned into a green sword hanging in the middle of the ding.
Liangchen wondered if the light of this mid-level sword was even more gorgeous, so he stared at the sword intently, for fear of missing something.
About half a pillar of incense passed, and suddenly Liangchen only felt a breeze on his face, and it disappeared like an illusion.
"It's done! Refine it today, and continue tomorrow with another handful. Liangchen was in a daze, and Ye Lao's words sounded in his ears.
"If you have any questions or don't understand something, just ask me. Ye Lao took back the fire tripod again, sorted out the materials again and said.
"Uncle Ye, why didn't the glow spill out when this weapon was practiced? Also, I just felt a breeze blowing on my face, is it an illusion?" Liangchen asked.
"Qinghuang Sword is a magic weapon of the wind attribute, when the sword is formed, it can lead the wind to move, and the breeze just now is the image of the sword!
There are thousands of treasures in the world, each with its own unique characteristics.
Some overflow with a lot of light, some seduce the wind and thunder, and some have no movement but can attract souls.
All of this requires you to learn and experience it yourself, so you still have a long way to go in refining this weapon!"
Uncle Ye answered his question with a smile.
So Liangchen asked a few other questions, and the two went back to their rooms to recuperate.
